"correct!"
At this time, Su Chen looked at Zhou Mi: "With so much money to buy a painting, do you want it to be real? How do you plan to pay it back?"
"Simple!"
Zhou Mi smiled mysteriously: "I will write a note for you and report the disaster situation in Yazhou to Shendu. When the time comes, His Majesty will naturally allocate funds for disaster relief. You take out the money first, and then wait until His Majesty's money arrives..."
"???"
Su Chen looked at Zhou Mi in front of him in shock.
As if he couldn't believe his ears, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Isn't this a bit too big? This is bullying the emperor!"
"It's okay!" Zhou Mi said with a smile: "If there is any problem, I will take care of it. Anyway, this painting will be sent to the palace in the end. Using money from the treasury to handle court affairs is not a lie." !”
At this time, Su Chen admired Zhou Mi greatly.
With his head, he was born to be a corrupt official.
"its not right!"
Su Chen looked at Zhou Mi in front of him: "I can just write the notes reporting the disaster myself. At that time, the money will also be used for disaster relief, and this money was borrowed by you yourself and has nothing to do with the court!"
"You still have to pay me back!" Su Chen said confidently: "Why should the disaster relief money given by the court be counted on you?"
Zhou Mi's eyes narrowed.
Staring at Su Chen, he pondered for a moment, and then continued: "It doesn't matter much, but I can tell you clearly that if I hadn't written this book, you wouldn't be able to get a cent from the treasury. of silver!”
"..."
Su Chen's eyes showed a bit of helplessness.
He really believed this. Although he didn't know how Zhou Mi operated, Zhou Mi did have this ability.
Su Chen looked at Zhou Mi in front of him, and for a moment all his words were choked back.
I can only shake my head helplessly: "You're awesome!"
"That's natural!" Zhou Mi's voice was very soft, but it contained a bit of pride.
At this time, the people in the bookstore were almost gone.
Li Xian walked over, glanced at Zhou Mi, and then at Su Chen: "Master Su, we meet again!"
"How are the injuries on your body? Why did you run out instead of resting at home?" Su Chen asked with a bit of a smile in his eyes.
"no way!"
Li Xian shook his head: "I really couldn't take any time at home, so I went out for a walk. Who knows, it's a coincidence that I happened to know what happened here. This girl..."
"We've seen it before!"
Zhou Mi had a smile on his face and nodded slightly.
Li Xian was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Zhou Mi would expose this matter directly.
"I've indeed seen it before, but I've never known it before!" Li Xian responded with a slightly embarrassed response, then continued: "Can I see this painting?"
"certainly!"
Zhou Mi handed the painting to Li Xian.
"If you really like it, I can transfer three thousand taels of gold to you!" There was a faint smile in Zhou Mi's voice.
"Are you kidding? Although Mr. Gu Bingyan's paintings are expensive, they are not that expensive!"
While speaking, Li Xian shook his head helplessly: "Although I have money, I will not spend so much money to buy such a painting just because I like it!"
"Um?"
Zhou Mi laughed, but didn't say anything.
Li Xian carefully opened the painting, with a bit of joy in his eyes. He seemed to be particularly satisfied with the painting. He praised it profusely: "This painting is really rare at that time." . I never thought that this bird could have so many postures, and each one is lifelike, as if it flew in from outside the painting!"
"Moreover, it can blend in with the landscape very naturally, as if all the birds are returning to the forest!"
Li Xian sighed: "I originally thought that Mr. Gu Bingyan's "Country and Mountains" was already the pinnacle of his work, but I didn't expect that this "Thousand Birds" is even more unique and fits my personality!"
"oh?"
Zhou Mi immediately smiled and said, "Do you like the birds returning to the forest?"
"..."
Li Xian was stunned there, seemingly in a daze.
"Ahem, how is that possible? I just like the posture of the birds above! It doesn't matter whether they are returning to the forest or not. What's more, so many birds may not be returning to the forest, they may just go out to look for food. !”
Li Xian hurriedly changed his tune.
Before Zhou Mi could say anything, Li Xian hurriedly said again: "Let's not talk about birds anymore!"
"..."
Liu Qi looked at the two people in front of him with interest. He could really understand the implication. I also think it's quite ridiculous. Can't you just talk nicely? Each one of them spoke as if they were playing charades, and they didn’t know what they were thinking.
"good!"
Zhou Mi didn't say much. He just glanced outside, and then continued: "Yazhou is a good place with outstanding people. After His Royal Highness arrived in Yazhou, he felt free and unrestrained!"
"yes!"
Li Xian sighed: "In the capital of the gods, there are many things that have to be done. Sometimes, there are too many things to consider. Even your thoughts may be manipulated by others. Do something regrettable!"
"On the contrary, it is here in Yazhou that I can be myself most truly!"
Zhou Mi sighed. Although she didn't know whether what Li Xian said was sincere, she knew that they were true. Sometimes, in the court, it is easy for you to be carried forward, and it is impossible to live freely.
Think about it carefully, you are the happiest during this time in Yazhou, right?
"Master Su..."
While he was lost in thought, Shang Lingzhu walked down, saluted Su Chen, and then looked at Zhou Mi: "Miss Zhou!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"The title of His Highness the Crown Prince is somewhat unworthy of the name. I'm in Yazhou, so just call me by my first name. If that doesn't work, you can also call me Mr. Li!" Li Xian's voice was very soft.
"You still have to have the proper etiquette!"
Shang Lingzhu covered his mouth and chuckled: "Master Su brought me a big surprise today."
"You should be the one giving the surprise, but I didn't expect that you would actually put this painting up for auction!" Su Chen spread his hands speechlessly: "Why is this necessary? Yazhou is capable of providing disaster relief. !”
"That is your responsibility, sir. When I come to Yazhou and settle down in Yazhou, I will naturally do something for Yazhou!"
Shang Lingzhu laughed softly and said, "I believe that Miss Zhou and His Highness the Crown Prince also think so."
