Qixuan Episode (Fifty-Five)
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! Gu Jiu is not a talkative person. When going down the mountain, Qixuan could only hear the chirping of birds.
After walking halfway, Qixuan said: "Did you send the letter I wrote last time to the capital?" It was really boring to go down the mountain with Gu Jiu, next time he will bring Ai Hua out. But to bring the child down the mountain, the county magistrate must be dealt with.
"No."
Qixuan was a little angry: "How could you not send the letter? You just watched so many ordinary people being exploited and bullied by that dog official?"
Gu Jiu laughed and said: "It's a good thing you don't have a wife, otherwise you would have been sold and paid for it." Qi Xuan's temperament is not suitable for officialdom, even if he is an official, he must be idle. He will not hold an important position like Qiyou.
Being despised again, Qixuan was so depressed.
Gu Jiu smiled and said: "Killing chickens is overkill. The letter was not sent, but I wrote a letter to the procurator. After such a long time, the county magistrate should have been imprisoned."
Qi Xuan's face looked better now.
Seeing this, Gu Jiu deliberately said: "I'm so puzzled when I say it, you said you and King You are the same child, and King You is so smart, why are you so stupid that people can't see it?"
Qi Xuan gave Gu Jiu the back of his head.
Gu Jiu couldn't wait for Qi Xuan to ignore him, it was so annoying to keep asking. Now, finally, the ears are clean.
When the two arrived at the county seat, they saw that the officials were still collecting money. Qixuan couldn't help looking at Gu Jiu, and said, "Didn't you say that the county magistrate is in prison?"
"I just said yes, not sure. In this world, there are no absolutes." Now it seems that the county magistrate's background is relatively hard. He actually suppressed his report letter, but it's okay, it's all done.
Qixuan snorted and said, "Anyway, good or bad, it's all yours."
Gu Jiu smiled and said: "Don't worry, this matter will be resolved soon." In fact, the secret guard also has the duty to supervise all officials. However, he has retired and now he is only responsible for training newcomers, so he wants to solve this matter through formal means. Unexpectedly, the people above actually bent the law for selfish ends in order to shield the wicked.
The two walked over, and the officer accepted the entry fee and let them in. As a result, when the two walked to the gate of the city, they saw a wanted warrant posted on the wall. On the top, there are four rough, majestic, bearded men, and a black and strong child next to them.
After nine hooligans were killed last time, the county was under martial law for half a month. A few days ago, it was relaxed.
It was also Qixuan who was wearing a new light blue dress and a headscarf, looking like a polite scholar. They were not the same person as those on the arrest warrant, so the officials didn't have the slightest suspicion of them. But those people who are big and three rough are all arrested and interrogated.
Qixuan took Gu Jiu to Mr. Tang's calligraphy and painting shop. I didn't see a single person last time I came, and I didn't see half of them this time. However, Qi Xuan was not surprised by this phenomenon. There are really too few scholars here.
Seeing that it was Qixuan, Tang Er Er excitedly said no: "Young Master Han, my father has been talking about it for the past few days." After speaking, he warmly invited Qixuan to the backyard.
Tang Mo was tending the flowers and plants in the yard, saw him put down the scissors in his hand and asked, "Is the painting ready?"
Qi Xuan nodded.
After entering the room, Qixuan first took out "The Picture of a Loving Mother" and spread it on the table for Tang Mo to see.
As soon as Tang Mo saw this painting, he couldn't help admiring: "This painting is really good. It seems that the Empress Dowager is right. You are really good at drawing figures."
Gu Jiu was speechless when he heard this. Didn't he tell King Xuan brightly that you were sent by the empress dowager.
Qixuan was pleasantly surprised after hearing this: "My mother told you that I am good at drawing figures?"
Tang Mo was startled, but seeing Qi Xuan's unsurprised expression, he didn't hesitate: "The Empress Dowager thinks you are good at figure painting, so let me give you some pointers." King Xuan's technique is very proficient, but he still Did not form its own unique style. And this is what he needs to guide.
Qi Xuan was overjoyed: "Thank you, Mr. Tang.
"
Tang Mo stroked his beard and said, "When did you know my identity?" He thought it was well hidden, but he didn't expect it to be revealed so quickly.
Qi Xuan smiled and said: "Such a remote and backward county not only has a great painter, but also allowed me to meet him. In this world, there is no such thing as a coincidence." It is not a coincidence, it must have been arranged by his mother. It's just that before, Qixuan didn't know that Yuxi thought his characters were drawn well.
Gu Jiu was a little surprised, he didn't realize that Qi Xuan found out about this, it seems that King Xuan was not as stupid as he thought.
Now that everyone knows his identity, Tang Mo no longer hides and pinches: "This "Picture of a Loving Mother" portrays a mother's worries and children's emotions. This painting can touch people's thoughts." A painting that affects people is a masterpiece.
Qixuan was a little embarrassed: "I just remembered the scene when my mother took care of me when I was sick."
After talking about the picture of a loving mother, Qi Xuan showed Tang Mo the painting "Tiger".
Seeing this painting, Tang Mo smiled and said: "This painting is also very good, how much are you going to sell it for?" This painting is much better than the last landscape painting, but still not as good as the "Mother Picture" just now. Whether this painting incorporates emotions, laymen can feel it, let alone Tang Mo.
Qixuan doesn't care about money, he cares more about Tang Mo's evaluation: "Sir, what do you think of this painting?"
Tang Mo smiled and said, "You tiger is fierce and imposing, much stronger than the last landscape painting. However, you used too much force in this painting."
Gu Jiu looked at the posture of the two of them, fearing that it would not be over for a while. He turned to Tang Laoer and said, "What happened in this county recently? I saw that there are still patrolling yamen on the road, and they are much stricter than when we came last time."
Tang Laoer looked at him and said, "Several people in the county were killed by Yi men, and the county magistrate has issued a wanted order." In fact, he knew that those who killed those people must be Qixuan and his party. But he knew it in his heart, but he wouldn't say it.
These hooligans deserve to be killed. However, King Xuan was punished by the queen mother to suffer here, so it is not appropriate to make public about it.
Gu Jiu said to Tang Laoer: "I'll go out for a walk, and I'll be back soon. Before I come back, don't let the third young master go out."
Tang Lao Er nodded and said, "Okay."
After Gu Jiu came back, Qi Xuan talked with Tang Mo. It wasn't until dark that Tang Laoer was afraid of starving his father, so he interrupted their conversation.
In the evening, Qi Xuan and Gu Jiu stayed at Tang Mo's house. When Qi Xuan fell asleep, Gu Jiu quietly walked out of the room.
In the early morning of the next day, Qixuan left the calligraphy and painting shop and went to the cloth shop. After buying the fine cloth, I was about to buy other things, but suddenly there were a lot of official errands on the street.
These officials started to check pedestrians when they saw pedestrians. An officer looked at Qi Xuan and Gu Jiu, and asked, "Both of you, raise your heads."
Qixuan got a lot of tan last year, but Gu Jiu put some powder on him just before he came out of Tang's house. So this will look, still relatively white.
As for Gu Jiu, he looked like an old servant.
Seeing that Qixuan looked like a scholar, the official had a very good attitude, and after the interrogation, he reminded: "Go back if you have nothing to do, don't wander around the city, it's dangerous."
Qi Xuan was at a loss.
"Let's go back!" This county town seems to be under martial law, they should go back early!
Qi Xuan hummed, and the two bought some dry food on the side of the road and left the city.
At the gate of the city, there are more than ten government officials. The two at the door still held portraits in their hands, and those who left the city had to compare them with the portraits before they could leave.
With Qi Xuan's appearance, he doesn't look like a vicious murderer. Therefore, the two walked out of the city gate easily.
After leaving the county seat, Qixuan looked at no one around and lowered his voice and asked, "Is what happened in the county seat related to you?" Otherwise, why did you ask him to paint in the morning.
Gu Jiu didn't hide it, and said: "I killed that dog official, and his head was hung at the gate of the county government."
Qi Xuan staggered and fell to the ground.
After getting up, Qixuan said with disbelief, "You, how could you kill the imperial court official without permission."
Gu Jiu looked at Qixuan and said, "Didn't you ask me to kill it? Why is it now without permission again?"
Qixuan shouted excitedly: "When did I ask you to kill that dog official?" That dog official is hateful, but it must be done according to the law, how can lynching be used.
"Didn't you say that this dog officer deserves to die?"
Qi Xuan almost vomited blood with anger. He said that this dog official deserves to die, but he didn't let Gu Jiu kill people: "What will my parents and elder brother think when they find out about this?" Do not arbitrarily end life and death.
Gu Jiu said: "I'm just kidding, you're serious. I'll tell the Queen Mother and the Emperor what happened. They know, and they won't blame me." This kind of dog official should be killed. Not even the people behind him bypassed.
Qi Xuan clutched his chest and said, "Don't make such a joke next time, I will really be scared to death by you."
Gu Jiu laughed and said: "You don't care about human life. As long as the evidence is convincing, so what if you ordered the killing of this dog official? The Supreme Emperor and the Emperor know that they will only praise you, not scold you."
Qixuan shook his head and said: "I'm in his position to seek his own government, and I'm not in the officialdom, so I'm not qualified to deal with them."
After hearing this, Gu Jiu couldn't help but glance at Qi Xuan. Unexpectedly, King Xuan's awareness is quite high.
The two purchased the things they needed in the county, and went straight up the mountain without going to Su Qi's house to borrow.
Walking on the rugged mountain road, Qixuan suddenly said to Gu Jiu, "It's too inconvenient to live in the mountains. Tell my mother, I want to move to the county town." You have to run to buy anything A few days, what a waste of time.
"Okay." King Xuan was allowed to live in Ajia Village that day to let him know that survival is not easy. Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to live in Ajia Village anymore.
Seeing that he was so straightforward, Qixuan couldn't help but made one more request: "I want to write to my parents."
"I'll get back to you after I've asked the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager what they mean." He couldn't decide on this matter. But now that King Xuan has changed, I think the Queen Mother will agree.
