Shao Wanru didn't let Chu Liuchen paint, but she was not Chu Liuchen's opponent. Fortunately, although Chu Liuchen had never painted on his face, he had good skills. He could draw two strokes, which was pretty good. Except for some shortcomings if you look carefully, the rest There's nothing wrong with that.
"Look, I said I painted well!" Chu Liuchen proudly held the pen in his hand and looked around. He was very satisfied. Such a delicate little face became even more outstanding after being painted like this. .
"What's good? Look, they're all one long and one short!" Shao Wanru pouted lightly and rolled his eyes at him.
"Isn't it good? Let me take a look?" Chu Liuchen pulled her face and examined it carefully, and suddenly became excited again, "Then let's wipe it and redraw it. I don't believe it will be bad."
"No, let's just do it a little bit!" Shao Wanru didn't dare to let him paint again. The painting was already like this, and it might not be as good as this time if he painted again.
"Really don't want to paint anymore?" Chu Liuchen said unwillingly. He looked at Shao Wanru's long and short eyebrows. His hands were itchy and he wanted to try again.
"No, no, really no need. It's very good now. It's already very good." Shao Wanru pushed his face with his hand, for fear that Chu Liuchen would come over again, and then praised him continuously.
"What a pity. In fact, I can draw better." Chu Liuchen looked at Shao Wan's flower-like face with unfinished thoughts. He felt that he could draw any way he wanted and really wanted to start painting again.
"Next time, paint next time," Shao Wanru said hurriedly.
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow!" Chu Liuchen felt that it was not safe next time, so he simply set the date.
"Okay, okay, I understand!" Shao Wanru hurriedly agreed. Seeing that this person was not having fun, he really wanted to write now. He couldn't let him make trouble anymore. If he made trouble again, it would be too late before he entered the palace.
Thinking of entering the palace, he suddenly remembered what happened to Qin Yiyan. He reached out from under the dressing table and took out Qin Yiyan's purse from yesterday, and handed it to Chu Liuchen: "Your Majesty, look at what this is?"
"Where did the purse come from? Or was it enshrined in the Buddhist temple?" Chu Liuchen looked at it and asked nonchalantly.
"This...isn't a man's purse?" Shao Wanru was stunned for a moment, this was somewhat different from her original thought.
"It's not a man's purse. There are so many men's purses in this palace. Such patterns are often enshrined in front of the Buddha. I have seen it several times at the imperial grandmother's place." Chu Liuchen said indifferently, " Where did it come from?"
"It is said that Di Zhaoyi fell down. Di Zhaoyi and Cousin Qin were talking at the time. After talking, she fell there. When Cousin Qin went to chase him, he escaped." Shao Wanru thought for a while and said, this should have happened at that time. Such a scene, I just don’t know what it means.
Originally, she had wondered whether Di Zhaoyi had deliberately put a man's purse into Qin Yiyan's hands. Apart from the emperor and a few princes, few other men in the palace could come in and out. Di Zhaoyi This is the intention to frame Qin Yiyan.
Now she found out that this was not a man's purse, which surprised her greatly.
"There is a Buddhist temple in the palace, and the concubines in the palace like to offer this kind of purse to the Buddhist temple." Chu Liuchen said as he pulled the purse in his hand and saw two silver coins falling out of it. No wonder yesterday It didn't look like ordinary cotton wool. It turned out that there were silver locks inside.
"It is said that it is enshrined in front of the Buddha, and more
To be honest, these are basically collected by the nuns. "Chu Liuchen said nonchalantly.
"Then this is what Di Zhaoyi wants to worship?" Shao Wanru felt that something was wrong for some reason. This was unreasonable. From what Qin Yiyan said, Di Zhaoyi clearly left it behind on purpose. What did Di Zhaoyi mean
"Maybe it is, maybe it's not!" Chu Liuchen said, "Why don't I send someone to check it out."
"You don't need to go. It's not appropriate for you to go. Let me take a look. Since you sent the things to Cousin Qin, you should also bring them to me." Shao Wanru thought for a while and said.
Di Zhaoyi is a concubine in the inner palace. Chu Liuchen can't have contact with her. It's better to check it out by herself. This purse is probably used to explore the way. The next step may be a real move. At this time, she still waits for the situation. The change.
But this Buddhist temple reminded Shao Wanru of Master Pushan, who had been the most convincing master among the concubines in the palace since he entered the palace.
Not only the Buddhist teachings, but also the painting techniques made the quiet and inactive concubines in the palace sigh. Last time, Shao Wanru saw Master Pushan's disciples in the palace of the Queen Mother, but after that Never seen again.
"Last time, was it really Aunt Wei behind the gauze curtain?" Thinking of the Queen Mother, Shao Wanru put away her purse and asked. Although she knew the beginning of what happened last time, she didn't ask about the outcome. Now she was curious and asked more One sentence.
"It was Nanny Wei. Not only did she eavesdrop, but she also went to tell Wei Dahai. After Wei Dahai came down from the mountain, he returned to his home. Not long after, his niece went to the Qingjun Prince's Mansion. She heard that she was going to visit the Qingjun Prince's Mansion. The concubine!" Chu Liuchen said lazily.
"Then what should I do about this Nanny Wei?"
Shao Wanru pondered for a moment and asked. There was something behind her words. I believe Chu Liuchen understood. It was not safe for Aunt Wei to stay with the Queen Mother.
"Keep it for now!" Chu Liuchen said softly, with a gloomy look in his eyes. He had someone secretly add someone to the imperial grandmother's side. Although this Aunt Wei is quite harmful, this is not the time to get rid of her yet. .
Shao Wanru nodded. Since Chu Liuchen cared about it, he would definitely not let Aunt Wei succeed. After finishing his long and short eyebrows, he asked the maids to come in to serve the breakfast, and then took Qing'er and Yujie with him. The two went to the palace.
This time, he did not enter through the side door, but took the people to the carriage at the door. The carriage went all the way to the palace gate, got off the carriage, and took a soft sedan at the palace gate to go to the Cining Palace of the Queen Mother.
Chu Liuchen went to his study, went up to the second floor and sat down behind the large desk, and told An Cheng, "Send someone to keep an eye on Qi Tianyu."
"Qi Tianyu?" An Cheng didn't understand who Qi Tianyu was for a moment.
"Qi Baiyu's brother, Tanhua Lang three years ago." Chu Liuchen said.
"Master, why are you staring at such a person? His official position is not high, and his authority is not great. He doesn't seem to be of much use. Some of the people who passed the exam at the same time as him have surpassed him. Compared with the number one scholar Wen Sangong at that time, Qi Tianyu is even more incomparable." An Cheng said nonchalantly, he really felt that this Qi Tianyu was nothing to keep an eye on and it was a waste of people's hearts.
"What, you're not going to listen to my orders?" Chu Liuchen glanced at him coldly, which made An Cheng tremble for a while, and said hurriedly: "Look what I said, of course you will keep an eye on me, but... In what direction should we focus on him?"
"In all aspects, it depends on who he comes in contact with, and even the smallest things must be seen clearly!" Chu Liuchen reached out and knocked on the table at hand, and said softly.
Shao Wanru didn't say it, but he really couldn't remember it. Now that Shao Wanru said this, he had some different thoughts. When Qi Tianyu was in Jiangzhou, he was a talented man with an excellent reputation, but when he arrived in the capital After that, he disappeared from everyone, but he had a girl who entered the Prince of Zhou's Mansion and was the concubine of the Prince of Zhou's Mansion who was about to get married. With just this point of view, he knew that this matter was not easy.
For a prefect's daughter to become the concubine of the direct prince, this is no small feat!
Chu Liuchen had also seen that woman. She was mean and ungrateful. She was not good-looking and had no support behind her. How could the Queen fall in love with such a woman? To the Queen, such a family was How could Qi Rongzhi become a concubine when she was settled in a broken household, but she did.
"Qi Tianyu has a sister who was raised in the Xingguo Hou Mansion. She was said to be the goddaughter of Xingguo Hou's wife Jiang. Later, she had a conflict with the Jiang family and returned to the place where her brother lived. Now she has been designated as the daughter of the Zhou Prince's Mansion. Concubine." Chu Liuchen curled his lips, but he was negligent. There was clearly something going on here.
An Cheng's eyes flashed, he was engaged in this kind of secret investigation, and he was very sensitive to this kind of thing, and he immediately thought of what was wrong with it: "Your Majesty, since Qi Tianyu is incompetent in writing and martial arts, How could my sister be favored by the Queen? Not to mention that she had a quarrel with the Xingguo Hou Mansion at that time, who protected them? "
Jiang didn't have a good character. If he offended her, he would be punished by death. But nothing happened to the Qi brothers. In the end, they managed to win the Queen's green eyes and take a fancy to his sister. , gave her the title of concubine.
"Go find out who Qi Tianyu belongs to!" Chu Liuchen said coldly.
"I don't think he is the King of Zhou." An Cheng thought for a while and said.
"Then this person is really powerful. He sent everyone to Prince Zhou's Mansion and in front of the Empress, and he was able to make the Empress agree." Chu Liuchen sneered indifferently. There was actually someone doing this secretly. It was almost an oversight.
"My subordinates sent two people to keep an eye on Qi Tianyu. They must find out who is behind him." An Cheng agreed. Qi Tianyu alone could not achieve this. There must be someone behind Qi Tianyu.
"Find out all the whereabouts of Qi Tianyu. He is not a simple person. If anyone finds out, just take his life!" Chu Liuchen said lazily, with a sinister look in his eyes.
"I understand." An Cheng was not surprised by his father's cruel methods. After following him for so many years, the only gentleness and soft-heartedness he saw were given to the princess. In front of others, he was just a cold-blooded and ruthless King Chen. Not to mention that this Qi Tianyu seems to be in trouble, even if he is fine, the prince understands his meaning very well.
I don’t know where this man named Qi offended the prince and made him issue a killing order.
In An Cheng's eyes, Qi Tianyu is now a dead man, but this dead man still had some value before he died...
"How is King Cheng doing lately?"
"Prince Cheng is very peaceful, but something happened again at Qingjun Prince's Mansion last night." An Cheng reported that the incident was not serious but a bit strange, so he did not alert the prince at night, "Qingjun Prince's Mansion is haunted!"
