Ling Xueling entered the inner room, and the ghost painting lowered the curtain on the door.

There is no furnishings in the inner room, only a long table with drawing paper spread out on it, and a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the side, which at first glance looks like a studio. But unlike the studio, there is a small bowl of blue and white porcelain next to the inkstone, and a viscous red liquid remains in the bowl.

"Today, Xingjun has already used double printing, and this painting will be painted another day." Qin Yin's eyes lowered and he persuaded.

Ling Xueling came to the table and looked down at the drawing paper, the painting on it was only half drawn, and it could be seen that it was a white-feathered parrot, standing among the lush branches.

"It's too late, I'm going to send the painting over tomorrow." Ling Xueling sat down, reached out and took the knife on the table, and stretched out her wrist in front of the celadon bowl.

The sharp blade slashed through the skin, and blood immediately gushed out, and it was quickly filled with half a small bowl.

"Ghost painting." Ling Xueling called without raising her head.

The ghost painting came over with a silk handkerchief in both hands, and Ling Xueling stretched out her hand to it.

Oni drew a skillful bandage of his injured wrist.

Ling Xueling lifted the pen and dipped it in ink. Then he dipped it in the blood of the celadon bowl and began to paint the unfinished painting.

The Lady's Mansion.

Feng Mo Nian was just about to go out to the academy early in the morning, when someone from outside came to report: "Your Royal Highness, there is a guest who asks to see you, saying that she was sent by Zhengming Pavilion."

Mo Nian was stunned, yesterday the Hundred Bird Star Monarch had clearly rejected her request, why did he send someone over today.

Seeing her hesitate, the servant tentatively said, "If Your Highness doesn't want to see her, the servant will go and send her away." ”

"Please come in." Mo Nian said.

After half a cup of tea, a strange woman came in from outside.

Mo Nian has been to the Zhengming Pavilion twice, but he has never seen this woman, unlike the qin, ghost paintings and elegant books in the Zhengming Pavilion, this woman has a peaceful and peaceful temperament.

However, this kind of tranquility is too lonely, and Mo Nian always feels a little sad. It's as if she's a bouquet of tiny wildflowers blooming on a lonely grave in the wilderness.

"The little girl thinks of chess, and I am specially ordered by Xingjun to give this painting to the guests."

Mo Nian has never revealed his identity to the Hundred Bird Star Monarch, but since this woman can find the Tainu Mansion. Presumably, Hundred Bird Star Jun already knew her identity.

However, recalling yesterday's scene, Hundred Birds Xingjun did not look at her differently because of this, or had the intention of being afraid of her and scolding her.

Siqi handed over the painting in his arms.

Mo Nian took it and was about to open it, when he suddenly heard Siqi say: "Wait." ”

Mo Nian looked up at her, and Siqi explained, "This painting is not for you. ”

Mo Nian was slightly displeased. If it was not given to her, why should he come to her house?

"All you need to do is pass it on to the person you ask for, and Xingjun will say that you are very clever and will understand the meaning."

Mo Nian's gaze swept over the painting several times, and finally took his hand away.

"I see." This is what Hundred Bird Xingjun asked her to hand over to Ling Duyan, and it seems that outsiders can't see it.

Siqi continued: "If the guest likes Xingjun's paintings. Here's another one made by Xingjun just for you. As she spoke, she pulled out a small scroll of jade painting from her bosom and placed it on the table.

"For Me"

"Yes."

"How much do you want to charge" Mo Nianfeng's eyes picked slightly, she didn't believe that Hundred Birds Xingjun would give others things for nothing.

"Xingjun didn't explain, the little girl didn't dare to say anything." Siqi is elegant and blessed, "Now that the things have been delivered, the little girl is leaving." ”

After Siqi left. Mo Nian opened the jade scroll.

It was a horizontal scroll: in the dark night, boundless red flowers bloomed, and from a distance it looked like it was paved with blood, and it looked like a burning road.

Mo Nianfeng's eyes flickered, as if something had flashed through her mind.

"Your Royal Highness, the time to go to the academy has arrived, and it will be too late if you don't enter the palace, and then the princess will be angry again" The palace maid urged from outside the door.

"Got it." Mo Nian gathered his spirit, put away the horizontal scroll painting, thought about it and opened it again, and instructed the palace maid: "Hang this painting in my bedroom in a while." ”

After the academy dismissed, Mo Nian brought another painting given to her by Hundred Bird Star Monarch to Ling Duyan.

But this time she didn't ask any questions, Ling Duyan pursed her lips and silently accepted the painting.

On the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, the father did not feast on the ministers. just took her mother and her two younger brothers to the Queen Mother's palace to celebrate her birthday.

Everyone sent congratulatory gifts to the Queen Mother, and Mo Nian noticed that the palace maid beside Ling Duyan was holding a perch in her hand, and a white parrot fell on it.

It's different from the previous one. There was a handful of red feathers on the top of its head, and from a distance, the bright feathers looked like they were dyed with blood.

"The Queen Mother is auspicious, the Queen Mother is auspicious", the parrot proudly learned the human language. made the Queen Mother laugh again and again.

Feng Ruoming and Feng Ruoyun couldn't help but tease it, no matter what everyone said, the parrot learned well. Even her mother began to like it, and even secretly consulted with her father to raise one.

Feng Duhan didn't object, "Since you like it, you have to raise it, many officials have entered the palace to report on their work these days, and some people have offered a few rare birds and beasts, you can go and take a look." ”

Ye Zhiwei grinned, "What if I like everything?"

Feng Duhan raised his eyebrows, and his doting eyes were slightly helpless.

Ye Zhiwei smiled even more, "Mo Nian, do you want to accompany me, if there is something you like, it is better to bring it back to be domesticated." Save you from always grabbing briquettes with me. ”

The "briquette" was once a big crow trained by the wind and twilight to convey messages, because it was born different, and it could see at night. Therefore, he has been left in the palace by the wind and twilight.

Later, Mo Nian left the palace to set up his own Tainu Mansion, and he was not at ease in the twilight cold, so he left the "briquette" in the Tainu Mansion.

Mo Nian shook his head, "It's enough for me to have briquettes, I don't need anything else." ”

When I left the Empress Dowager's palace, it was already late outside. Ye Zhiwei left them in the palace for the night.

Mo Nian refused, but the twin brothers stayed.

Mo Nian did not leave the palace directly, but went to Ling Duyan's Reflecting Moon Palace.

Ling Duyan was in a good mood. He also beckoned her to stay in her palace for the night.

Mo Nian chatted with her casually, and suddenly noticed a painting of a green jade painting scroll hanging on the wall.

The painting depicts a white parrot climbing among the branches, turning its head to look to the side, with a cluster of red feathers on top of its head, bright red as if dyed with blood

Mo Nian's eyes shrank suddenly.

This bird turned out to be exactly the same as the parrot that Ling Duyan brought to the Queen Mother's palace during the day.

Ling Duyan likes to raise birds the most, and all her bird cages are hung in a conservatory.

Mo Nian deliberately proposed to go to the greenhouse.

Ling Duyan didn't refuse, so she let people lead the way, and the two went to the greenhouse.

But until Mo Nian came out of the conservatory, she didn't see the parrot that celebrated the birthday of the Queen Mother on the Queen Mother's birthday today

Not only that, but Ling Duyan didn't say a word about the bird.

Mo Nian was even more puzzled in his heart.

She knew Ling Duyan's temperament best, if she had such a smart pet, she would definitely take it out and share it with her.

What's going on

Staring at the painting on the wall, Mo Nian felt more and more that something was wrong.
