King Wei took back the portrait.
After nightfall, candles were lit in the study room of Prince Wei's Mansion.
Prince Wei carefully observed the portrait in front of him.
He held it in his hand and looked at the contents of the portrait carefully, and tried to see through the candlelight whether there was anything hidden in it.
Seeing that there was nothing mixed in it, Prince Wei couldn't help but become confused.
"It's weird..."
Prince Wei paused for a moment and thought over and over again, but in the end he still couldn't figure out the reason.
There doesn't seem to be anything special about this portrait.
He lightly rubbed his hand over the portrait again, feeling the unevenness of the paper, but couldn't find anything.
"If it's so ordinary...why does Tang Mingjing value this painting?"
Prince Wei couldn't figure it out for a while.
He felt that this portrait was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
But why, I can’t see it.
Could this portrait be related to something else?
But that’s not right either.
Prince Wei felt something was wrong again.
Since he, Tang Mingjing, knew that this portrait was extraordinary, why not just go into Prince Yu's Mansion and take the painting away as early as before.
This thing is really strange and a bit evil.
It was only from this time that Prince Wei really paid attention to this house.
Jingshi, the residence of King Yu.
Prince Wei touched his chin and then began to read historical materials.
Keep flipping forward until you see the description about King Yu.
However, in historical books, there are very few records about King Yu, and most of them are bad reviews.
The historians at that time seemed to be particularly disgusted with King Yu, probably because what King Yu did seemed to them to be too stupid. He made a big show of it without covering it up, and was eventually destroyed by Emperor Jing.
King Yu's identity was actually that of a rebel, and the historians even did not want to record it in the history books. Such a prince was really embarrassing to Da Jing.
Prince Wei repeatedly scrutinized the contents of this history book, trying to find some clues.
But in the end, he had no choice but to give up.
"well……"
Prince Wei sighed and looked at the portrait again.
He thought to himself that he probably couldn't see the use of this thing.
Or maybe there is no fate with him.
Since that was the case, he didn't think much about it anymore.
"Someone is coming."
Not long after, a figure appeared behind Prince Wei.
He is the secret guard of the Wei Palace.
Prince Wei handed the painting to his servant and said, "Send someone tomorrow to deliver this painting to Miss Yun's house in Chuanfeng Lane."
"Subordinates take orders."
Prince Wei waved his hand and sighed helplessly.
He was also a little sleepy, so he lay on the bed and rested.
Before going to bed, he was still thinking about what was special about the painting, but to no avail.
In fact, it was just as he thought.
This portrait has nothing to do with him.
…
The next morning.
Chen Changsheng went to the noodle shop in front of the teahouse to eat noodles.
When he saw Prince Wei again, his energy seemed to be much worse, as if he had not slept yesterday.
Chen Changsheng was eating noodles. When he saw him approaching, he said, "Did you go out to steal cattle outside the city last night?"
Prince Wei paused and said, "A dog's mouth cannot spit out ivory."
Chen Changsheng didn't care, he lowered his head and ate the noodles.
Prince Wei ordered a bowl of noodles and then sat across from Chen Changsheng.
"You must have given me a fake painting." Prince Wei said.
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "Yes, it's a fake painting. If you don't want it, just return it to Chen. Return it now."
Prince Wei muttered and said, "Whatever you give back to me is mine."
Chen Changsheng glanced at him, shook his head helplessly, and said: "That painting will naturally be useful in the hands of useful people, so don't worry about it."
"you know?"
"Chen doesn't know."
"You just know it, you just don't want to tell me. You've always been a petty person."
"Who is it?" Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Didn't Prince Wei also guess that the painting had other uses, but didn't he also remind Chen that it was all deception and abduction? Where are the big brother and the second brother?"
"you……"
Prince Wei wanted to argue a little more, but he didn't get a good rest last night. He really had a severe headache, but in the end he could only sigh helplessly.
Prince Wei sighed and said, "How much do you know about that painting?"
Chen Changsheng said: "That painting originally belonged to King Yu."
Prince Wei said: "I checked the history books last night, but there were very few descriptions of King Yu, and I couldn't see the reason. So the focus is really on King Yu?"
"You can say that, King Yu..."
Chen Changsheng opened his mouth to continue.
Prince Wei also quietly waited for Chen Changsheng's next words.
Unexpectedly, Chen Changsheng opened his mouth and said, "If you want to know what happens next, please pay two and twenty silver."
"What?"
"Mr. Storyteller still has a reward."
"Can you please have some face? Please have some face!"
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "When Chen was a storyteller in Qingshan City, he was rewarded with more than twenty taels per game. This is considered an advantage for you."
In fact, Chen Changsheng had no money left.
In the past, there were quite a few, some were given to Ping An, and others were spent on the road. Now I only have less than one tael of silver left after my stay, so I'm afraid some are not enough on the road.
"Did you also talk about books?"
"yes."
Chen Changsheng glanced at him and said, "If you don't believe it, ask someone. There should be someone who knows Chen."
Prince Wei rolled his eyes at him, and then took out an ingot of gold from his purse.
"Is it enough!"
Chen Changsheng smiled and accepted the ingot of gold, and said with a smile: "Looking at it is enough."
"Then tell me what happened to King Yu."
Chen Changsheng coughed slightly and said: "King Yu and the father of Emperor Yan Xun of the Late King were of the same generation. At that time, the late emperor took special care of King Yu. Even in the subsequent struggle for imperial power, he did not treat King Yu He has never done anything, and King Yu has no interest in the so-called throne. A prince is obsessed with something else."
"Huh?" Prince Wei paused when he heard this and asked, "What is it?"
Chen Changsheng said: "Tao method."
"ah?"
Prince Wei was stunned when he heard this.
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "This is not a fabrication. King Yu is different from other princes, and his thoughts are also somewhat simple..."
Chen Changsheng vaguely remembered asking King Yu why he did this.
He only replied, "Brother Emperor took special care of me at that time."
Prince Wei frowned and said, "It must be impossible. How could the royal family allow the prince to learn these things?"
Chen Changsheng said: "What's wrong? Yan Xun had a son and ran away to join the world."
Prince Wei couldn't help but smacked his lips and said, "Does the royal family of the Yan clan not care about this so much?"
