The ninth day of September, Chung Yeung Festival.

Luo Li got up early and went to the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting, and after preparing the things, he went to the palace to go to Princess Enyi's palace, the Fragrance Pavilion, after having breakfast with the other artists.

Just as the name suggests, the fragrant pavilion is full of seasonal flowers, the palace is built in a staggered manner, there is a two-storey open pavilion on the left side of the door, the following is for people to play and enjoy the shade, and there is a gauze tent on the second floor for people to rest.

The palace people led Luo Li directly to the two-story pavilion, Qi Jinyi was dressed properly, and she was eating there with an ice grape in her mouth, she heard the palace people report that the lord of Luo Hall was coming, and she was not careful, and the grapes were swallowed whole.

"Ahem—ahem—"

"Princess!" The palace maid next to the tea was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward to check.

The loss of grapes is not big, and it is not in the way, Qi Jinyi coughed a few times, blushed, and eased up.

"Wechen meets the princess. Luo Li put the painting tools in place and bowed.

"Why are you again today? Are you really not afraid of death?" Qi Jinyi lost yesterday's politeness, anyway, yesterday's incident had already come out, presumably this painter had already held a grudge against herself, so why pretend, she waved her hand and retreated from the palace.

For a time, there were only the two of them left.

Seeing this, Luo Li smiled lightly, stood up and said: "Weichen returned to the princess, Weichen was ordered to paint a portrait of the princess, so before the portrait is completed, I am afraid that the princess will see Weichen every day." ”

Qi Jinyi didn't expect her to be so arrogant, and said angrily: "Why, do you think that you have the support of King Mu behind you, and this palace will not dare to move you?

"The princess thinks that if Weichen can't finish painting, the princess won't marry Beiban? There are so many painters in the calligraphy and painting academy, enough for the princess to kill for a while, but in the end, the princess will still go to Beiban and kiss. ”

"You-" Qi Jinyi dragged down the bunch of grapes in her hand and threw it at Luo Li, Luo Li was agile, his figure flashed, and he dodged.

Qi Jinyi threw away the grapes in her hand, but she didn't throw any of them, so angry she took out the grapes in the ice box and threw them away.

Seeing this, Qi Jinyi was even more furious.

"The grapes rewarded by the princess are delicious, and Wechen thanked the princess here. As he spoke, he bowed.

Qi Jinyi's face was flushed with anger, and she pointed at Luo Li for a long time, "You little painter, you actually committed the following crimes! This palace orders you not to move!"

Luo Li straightened up and looked at her.

Qi Jinyi picked up the ice box in her hand and threw it at Luo Li.

Lori bent back and saw the box thrown past her face.

"Smack-"

The wooden box was broken in half.

The personal maid just now rushed over when she heard the sound, and looked at Qi Jinyi, who was in a mess all over the ground and blushing with anger, "Princess!

Qi Jinyi was worried that her temper was nowhere to go, and shouted: "Didn't you let you go down? Why did you come back again, get out of the palace!"

As he spoke, he picked up the teacup in his hand again and smashed it at the palace maid.

Only this time, no one heard the sound, because the cup was intercepted by Luo Li halfway.

The palace maid saw that her master was about to have another seizure, and she was so frightened that she ran away from this place.

"Since the princess retreated to prevent someone from telling the princess about teaching Weichen, why should she hurt a palace maid? Weichen is not in the way, anyway, Her Royal Highness the princess can't get in, but the palace people are hanging the lottery, and others will inevitably know what's going on when they see it. ”

Qi Jinyi was stunned, how did she know?

Luo Li saw her reaction and knew that she had guessed the reason, and continued: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, don't look at Wei Chen with such eyes, there is no one else here now, and Wei Chen dares to say anything." Your Highness, you are in Weichen, this is a rude and willful princess, relying on her own identity to bully her subordinates, but doesn't the princess also have people who are afraid? For example, you don't know which one is the person who was arranged to monitor your Highness......

"Do you know?"

Luo Li saw her take the bait, so he said in a tricky way: "Weichen can know or not, it depends on whether the princess can listen and finish the matter." ”

"What's the matter?"

Luo Li suddenly took a few steps forward, and when the two were arm's length, he stopped, leaned forward and whispered, "Doesn't the princess want to kiss? I can help the princess." ”

Qi Jinyi looked at her incredulously, lowered her voice and reprimanded: "Who are you? You dare to say such a rebellious thing! Don't you want to live?"

Luo Li didn't answer her, and continued: "Of course, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and I will do my best. ”

"And the parents are the mission of the princess, and the palace is for the sake of the country's society-"

"Your Highness asked me about the Northern Barbarians last time, I lied, and now I tell Your Highness that the Northern Barbarian royal family is desolate, Your Highness, even if you go to the crown princess, you will be one of his many women, and none of the Northern Barbarian women who have a name and no name are easy to mess with. If Anurchi dies, you will remarry the next successor, but only if you live to remarry, princess. Luo Li was unhurried, but this tone was hard to believe, "Also, the winter in the Northern Barbarians is very long, and children are not suitable for survival, so all the women of the royal family are constantly giving birth, if I remember correctly, counting the dead, Anurchi has thirty-nine brothers and twenty-seven sisters." ”

"You—you're lying!"

"Princess, you have time to get angry with Wei Chen, or to spend time investigating which one is the eyeliner that was inserted, you might as well inquire about the real situation of Beiban first, after all, this is really close, and there is no turning back. ”

"Shut up in the palace! Aren't you here to paint the palace? What are you delaying? Don't you hurry up!" Qi Jinyi shouted, the palace people hadn't come yet, but someone else had come—Concubine Yu.

"The son visits the queen mother. ”

"Weichen met Concubine Yu, Niangniang, Wanfu Jin'an. ”

Concubine Yu walked in slowly, and when she saw the grapes and the broken wooden box here, her face was solemn, "What's the matter?"

Qi Jinyi was just about to speak, but Concubine Yu stopped and said, "Master Luo, you can talk about it." ”

Qi Jinyi's face sank.

"Back to Concubine Yu, not long after Wei Chen came, this is the grapes that Her Royal Highness the princess wants to reward Wei Chen, but Wei Chen's hand slipped and accidentally broke the wooden box, which is why you saw this scene, fortunately, the princess did not punish her. ”

"Jinyi, what about the people in your palace?"

"Back to my mother, just now Erchen and Luo Painter asked some things about the painting, and I don't want others to hear about it, so I just-"

"It's not too early for now, so do what you have to do. ”

"Mother, when you come to the Fragrance Pavilion, do you have something to look for your son?"

"I heard that you stole from the palace yesterday, what's going on?"

"Mother, this kind of trivial matter still needs you to ask, is it Erchen's, the thing that was stolen yesterday is that Yu'er mistakenly remembered which box the jewelry was placed in, and the thing has been found. ”

"Hmph, it's this rain again, clumsy, the Ying'er who was rewarded by this palace is nimble, why don't you need her to serve by your side?"

"Mother, you sit down, and the sons will go and let them serve tea. ”

"No need, today the Queen Mother invited the monk to come to the Buddha, just over, the palace passed by to see you, don't forget to take medicine. Concubine Yu turned to Luo Li and said, "Painter Luo, please bother about Jinyi's portrait." ”

"Concubine Yu, this is a matter within the scope of Weichen, please rest assured that Concubine Yu will definitely do a good job. ”

"That's very good. Concubine Yu finished speaking and walked out.

The two congratulated and said: "Congratulations to Concubine Yu." ”

"Congratulations to the concubine. ”

After sending Concubine Yu away, the two looked at each other, as if they had a heart, their eyes lit up, and they didn't say a word more.

Qi Jinyi walked to the pavilion and greeted the rain in the distance, the two whispered, and Qi Jinyi left alone.

After a while, Yuzhi walked up to Luo Li respectfully, and said with a smile: "Lord Luo, the princess said that the sun is drying outside, please go to the palace to paint today." ”

After leading the way, the rain stopped and quietly looked at the red and purple painter beside His Majesty recently-Lord Luotang.

Before this painter came, the little master had ordered to investigate this person's background, so Yu stopped knowing something about her.

I think this woman must be smart and clever, but in two days, she will take down her grumpy little master. If it weren't for the exquisite thoughts, how could the saint and King Mu like it so much.

Looking sideways, the symbol of this woman's side face is a light cyan straight coat lined with fair skin, delicate and tender. Even if you are dressed in a neutral outfit, it is difficult to hide your stunning appearance.

The rain stopped leading her to the main hall, but things were unexpected, the little master and the painter just politely said a few words detachedly, and then the master of Luo Tang took out the painting tools and began to paint in a regular manner, and tossed back and forth for two hours before she left.

But on this day, after the master of Luo Tang left, a rare smile appeared on the princess's recently cloudy face.
