Qixuan Episode (Eighty-Two)

The genius remembered the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! I went shopping with Yunqing for a day and bought a lot of things. Qixuan's mood improved a lot.

But when he returned to the palace and saw Dai Yanxin, his mood suddenly became bad again.

Qixuan frowned and said, "Didn't you say last time that I'm not familiar with Mr. Huang, and I can't draw well even if asked."

Dai Yanxin said: "Si Ling asked Master Lin to make two paintings for Master Huang, but Master Huang couldn't agree. He just wanted you to make him a painting, and told Siling that it was his only painting." wish."

Qi Xuan was a little annoyed.

Dai Yanxin said: "I know you don't want to paint, but you don't want to look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha. King You has nothing to say to us these years. Now that your siblings are begging to come to your door, it would be too unkind for you to refuse."

Qixuan felt very uncomfortable, but he did not refuse: "You go to bed early, I will go back to the study to sleep."

If he is in a bad mood, he will stay in the study. Dai Yanxin already knew this: "Okay."

Back in the study, Qixuan called the valet over: "Go to Prince You's Mansion and tell Prince You that I'll be there tomorrow morning."

Some things are not easy to say to Huang Shi, it is better to say it directly to Qiyou.

When Qiyou heard the news, he said to Huang Siling strangely: "I don't know what happened to the third brother? Someone spread the word at such an early night."

Today I went to find Dai Yanxin at Prince Xuan's Mansion, but Huang Siling didn't tell Qiyou in advance. Now, she didn't dare to hide it anymore: "It should be that I asked him to paint for my father, right?"

Qiyou was very upset when he heard this: "Illustrator Lin made two paintings for your father, and any of those two paintings is very good." If the painting is not good, he has nothing to say. But those two paintings were very well drawn. Master Huang was dissatisfied, he was completely nitpicking.

Huang Siling was also very wronged: "Father has been begging me to ask my third brother to make a painting for him. I refused before, but today he grabbed my hand and said that this was his only wish before he died. What do you say?" What can I do?" She even said the only wish before she died, what can she do as a daughter? He could only do his best to fulfill his wish.

Qiyou felt that Huang Shoushan was completely fooling around: "Forget it, I will take care of this matter, don't feel bad."

Huang Siling nodded.

Qixuan went to Qixuan early in the morning: "Third brother, my father-in-law is just messing around, please ignore him." Compared with Qixuan, Huang Shoushan naturally has to stand aside.

Qixuan said with a smile: "I'll take a look at the painting Master Lin made for Master Huang first. If it's not good, I'll make a painting for Master Huang." If it's a good painting, there's no need to waste his time and energy up.

Qiyou hurriedly said: "Third brother, there is no need to force yourself."

"Ayou, I know that if there is no other way, my brother and sister will definitely not open this mouth." According to his original temperament, even with Dai Yanxin, he would not let go. However, after all, it is no longer the time when I was young, and I can do things completely according to my own wishes. Now, he will also take care of the feelings of those who care about.

Qiyou smiled: "Third brother, I will solve this matter."

Qixuan patted Qiyou on the shoulder and said, "Don't be silly, come with me to Huang's house!" If Qiyou refuses, Master Huang will leave with regret. In the future, the Huang family will blame Qiyou for this matter, and the husband and wife may have a rift.

After arriving at Huang's house, Qixuan saw the portrait painted by Master Lin and said to Huang Shoushan: "Master Huang, Master Lin's painting is very good. Even if I am a painter, I can't draw better than him."

Huang Shoushan felt that Qixuan was trying to evade: "I just ask the lord to make a painting for me, even if I die, I will have no regrets."

Qixuan patiently explained: "Master Huang, if you ask me to paint, I can only paint you as you are now. No matter how good my painting skills are, this painting will not look good."

Huang Shoushan has been lying on the bed for almost a year, and the physical and mental state of a person who is about to step into the coffin with both feet can be imagined. How can it be good to enter the painting like this.

Huang Shoushan hurriedly said: "My lord, my lord can just draw my appearance twenty years ago.

"He had seen Qixuan's painting for Han Jianming, and after reading it, he was very envious, and he always wanted Qixuan to paint him a painting.

When people get old, their obsessions grow deeper. A few years ago, taking advantage of his illness, he mentioned this matter to Huang Siling. Although he was rejected, he still did not give up. Now that he is seriously ill, he repeats the old story

Qi Xuan shook his head and said, "Sorry, Mr. Huang, I don't remember what you looked like twenty years ago."

Huang Shoushan was stunned, and after a while he said, "How could it be?"

Qixuan shook his head and said, "Master Huang, I don't have a very good memory. I don't remember much about the appearance of many people in the past." In fact, it's not that he has a bad memory, but that he and Huang Shoushan have met no more than two times in total. Slap, and every time I saw it was very short. Therefore, he only had a vague impression of Huang Shoushan's appearance more than 20 years ago. In this situation, how did he draw Huang Shoushan when he was young?

Huang Shoushan was disappointed and uncomfortable.

Qixuan said: "Master Huang, the paintings I draw are definitely not as good as those of Master Lin."

Although he was lifted very high, Qixuan knew that Painter Lin's painting skills were actually much higher than his.

Before Huang Shoushan could speak, Qiyou said: "Father-in-law, you should rest well, my third brother and I have something to do and we will leave first." He didn't have a good impression of Huang Shoushan. When he was young, he doted on his concubine's room and the concubine's two sons, which was not good to his mother-in-law and Si Ling. Later, when Si Ling married him, Huang Shoushan hurriedly repaired the relationship between father and daughter. Then, I wanted him to take care of the two bastards. Unfortunately, Qiyou ignored him at all.

Huang Siling has no feelings for the two concubines' younger brothers, so he never intercede for them.

Back home, Qixuan and Dai Yanxin said: "Tell my siblings that I really don't remember what Master Huang looked like when he was young. But if Master Huang insists on me painting, I will paint for him. However, I can only paint for him. Draw him like this now. But, I'm afraid I won't be satisfied if I draw Mr. Huang."

Dai Yanxin asked: "Master Huang insisted on asking you to paint him, because he wanted you to paint him when he was young?"

Qi Xuan nodded.

Dai Yanxin didn't know what to say anymore, her prince was raised by the old British Duke and the old Zhongyonghou. The prince is very familiar with them, so it is normal to be able to draw their appearance when they were young. But Huang Shoushan and Qixuan have nothing to do with each other at all, how to draw this.

Qixuan said: "Speak well to your younger siblings, don't let the husband and wife quarrel because of me."

Dai Yanxin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely talk to my siblings." Master Huang's request is completely unreasonable, even if her husband doesn't paint, he can't be blamed.

Huang Siling wanted Qixuan to draw a picture of her father, even if it was his current appearance. But Qiyou was unwilling. He knew that Qixuan agreed to paint for Huang Shoushan because of his face, otherwise he wouldn't even enter the gate of Huang's house.

Qiyou said with a cold face: "That's the end of this matter, you don't want to go to the third sister-in-law anymore."

Huang Siling didn't dare to confront Qiyou: "Got it." Qiyou's temperament is a bit domineering, and he has the final say on everything in the family. But Huang Siling is not a competitive person, so the husband and wife get along very well these years.

Not long after this incident, a rich businessman named Qian Gui came to Xuan Palace to ask for a painting, and said that as long as Qixuan was willing to make a painting for him, he was willing to pay one hundred thousand taels of silver.

After Qixuan heard this, he was so angry that someone beat Qian Gui out.

Within two days, he invited another friend with Qixuan to talk about the project. He said that if Qixuan was willing to paint for him, he would give two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Qixuan knew the purpose of his friend's visit, and immediately served tea to see off the guests.

Dai Yanxin was very sensitive, and said to Qixuan, "My lord, I think this matter is strange."

"I've asked the big housekeeper to investigate." He is the current prince, not a poor painter. Qian Gui actually used money to throw money at him, this man is really courageous.

The housekeeper quickly told Qi Xuan the results of the investigation: "My lord, Qian Gui told people when he was drunk that his paintings will surely be handed down for generations. If the lord paints for him, his face will not only be bright, Maybe it will be famous forever." Thinking about 200,000 a painting makes me very excited, but it's a pity that my prince doesn't paint, otherwise the 200,000 silver would be easy to get.

Qixuan asked: "How credible do you think this statement is?" It is still possible if it is 20,000 taels of silver. 200,000, no matter how much money is burned, it's useless.

The butler actually wanted to say, my lord, if you draw him a picture, you will know the truth. However, I thought about it in my heart and dared not say it. Having been the steward of Prince Xuan's mansion for more than 20 years, how could he not know Qi Xuan's temperament: "My lord, this old slave doesn't know."

Although Qixuan did not agree to paint for Qian Gui, the news got out. People in the capital are discussing whether the Prince Xuan's Mansion uses a magic brush to paint, or why a painting is worth 200,000 taels of silver.

Qixuan asked Qiyou for a drink, looked at Qiyou and asked, "Isn't it you who made this matter about Qiangui?" Therefore, he suspected that Qiyou was creating momentum for him.

Qiyou laughed straight: "If I made it out, I would have told you a long time ago and I wouldn't have listened to you talking about it. But speaking of it, with the matter of Qiangui, it is estimated that no one will come to nagging you to ask you to help with painting in the future. "A painting costs 200,000 yuan, who can afford it! No matter how rich you are, you can't squander it like this.

Qixuan thought about it and thought: "Indeed, in the future, people should not always come to ask me to paint. However, I still think there is a problem with the cost of money." No matter how rich he is, he is just a businessman. The courage to ask him to paint.

Qiyou ate a fennel bean and said with a smile: "Third brother, not only will this matter not cause you any loss, but it will also help you build momentum." Therefore, he felt that there was no need to pursue it further.

When he got home, he saw Dai Yanxin reading the famous post, Qixuan asked, "What is it?"

Dai Yanxin handed the name post to Qixuan, and said with a smile, "I showed Xiang Xueyan three candidates, take a look."

Qixuan took it over and looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he asked: "This Gu Kun is already famous for juren, why would the Gu family want to marry us?" Normally, eighteen years old is a juren, and the elders must wait for him to try. Besides dear. If you pass the exam, you can talk about a better and helpful marriage, and if you fail the exam, you don't have to worry about no one coming to talk about marriage. And he is just an idle prince, unable to give Gu Kun any help.

Dai Yanxin said: "This Gu Kun is an adopted son. Mrs. Gu let go, saying that when he gets married, let him move out of Gu's mansion to live alone." He was talking about moving out, not separation. If you move out, you will lose your property.

"Are you really an adopted son? Not a concubine?"

Dai Yanxin shook his head and said: "Madam Gu hasn't conceived for five years, she took an orphan from the same family under her knees. As a result, Madam Gu became pregnant back then, but the child is lucky, Madam Gu's first two babies were girls." Mrs. Gu gave birth to a son, and Gu Kun has already entered the academy to study.

"Is this not recorded in their name?" If it is recorded in their name, it will not be said that the child has moved out.

Dai Yanxin shook his head and said, "No. I guess he was worried about harming her son's interests in the future, so he didn't record the child in his name." Once it is entered into the genealogy and recorded under their husband and wife's name, it will be serious. His eldest son. After that, the eldest son will inherit 70% of the family property. If you don't write down your name, that's the adopted son. Regardless of property, the husband and wife have the final say.

Qixuan let out a sigh and said, "I'll ask someone to inquire about Gu Kun's temperament, and if it's good, I'll make a decision." It may be more difficult to live in a separate life in the future, but it will be comfortable if you can be the master of your own life .

Dai Yanxin nodded.
