Half a month later, Wu State, outside Songjing, Baishi Town, Lufu.
Another day full of guests.
The front and back gardens of Lu Mansion were full of visitors, with servants and attendants wandering around, serving tea and wine to the guests, guiding them to the toilet, etc.
This was Lu Jinhe's idea. He opened his garden and library and studio for people to read and visit at will, which could earn some reputation for the Lu family and make up for the weak foundation of the Lu family.
Of course, everyone can enter the garden, but you need to have some status to visit the collection and library. As for banqueting with the owner, only distinguished guests are eligible.
At this time, several people were standing in a studio in Lu Mansion.
The first two people looked at the several landscape paintings hanging on the wall and praised them.
"Brother Guo, please look at this mountain. It is truly majestic and beautiful. Can Brother Guo tell who painted this painting?"
There is no inscription on this painting, it is just a mountain, a river, a pavilion and a person. People in the pavilion look up at the flash point.
"Brother Zeng is testing me. This painting is like a bold stroke, which makes people feel broad-minded. It has not yet been signed, so it should be Mr. Lei Chen's handiwork - I'm afraid the three paintings next to it are also Mr. Lei Chen's masterpieces. .”
Brother Zeng looked around and exclaimed.
"Haha, heroes see the same thing. This doctor is really lucky. It is very difficult for ordinary people to get a painting from Mr. Lei Chen, but here are four."
Neither of them mentioned the possibility that the Lu family's wealth was astonishing and that these four paintings were bought.
Mr. Lei Chen is a well-known elegant scholar in the world. He hates the smell of copper and will not sell his paintings to merchants at all. The most famous thing about his paintings is the artistic conception in his paintings and the fact that he never puts down his signature.
He once said that if you sign the money, you will attract people who are looking for fame and bad reputation. It is better not to sign the money and only sell to close friends.
"A businessman is a businessman after all. It's ridiculous to hang these four paintings in one room." Mr. Guo couldn't help but sneered.
Each of Mr. Lei Chen's paintings has its own unique artistic conception. If you are knowledgeable, you should display each painting individually in a suitable environment and view it in the appropriate season. That is the best way to view paintings.
Putting four paintings with completely different artistic conceptions together like the Lu family is enough to show the owner's luxury, but it prevents the viewer from fully experiencing the beauty of the artistic conception in the painting.
"Brother Guo must be careful, even if Dr. Zhang Hua has a bit of a copper odor, he is also open-minded. If you and I had these paintings, would we be willing to put them here for others to see? What's more, there is someone from the Lu family who is a businessman. Why, someone has delivered these paintings that we have been asking for so much."
Brother Zeng whispered and pointed to the north.
He was pointing in the direction of Chu State - it was obvious who he was talking about.
Speaking of that person, even Guo Zhu, a nobleman who looked down on the Lu family's business background, paled slightly.
During the Songjing Incident, that person turned the tide by riding alone. With a few girls, he was able to conquer the Chu Kingdom. Now it is even heard that this person broke into the Chu King's court and killed Chu King Xiangtong in public. He went away with his head - the warrior of Chu State had no calculation, and no one could do anything to capture him.
Even Gongsun Boyang, the Chu State's martial arts master, was killed by his horse when he blocked the road - that was the Wu Dao master who had not appeared in a hundred years!
Such a madman has never been seen in a thousand years - Guo Zhu would not dare to offend such a person even though he was born into a family of ministers.
"But it was Guo who made a mistake. The owner was kind enough to let us see such a painting, but my words were in vain." Guo Zhu cupped his hands in the direction of the main building and apologized.
Zeng Yuan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly waved his hand, exited the room with the left and right screens, and whispered. "Brother Guo, did you hear that after that man killed the Grandmaster of Chu, he was now seriously injured and unable to move."
Grapevine information always arrives faster than official information and is often more accurate.
"I haven't heard of this - but it's not surprising. The man who killed the martial arts master was unexpected. How could he not pay a price? It's normal for him to be seriously injured." Guo Zhu was not surprised.
"But I heard that the man will come back to be sealed during this period." Zeng Yuan came closer and said almost in Guo's ear.
"Eh? Are all his counselors dead?" Guo Zhu was surprised.
"Maybe it's because that person saved the current king? Do you think the king will not be ungrateful?"
"It's really a mess. The land of the Five Prefectures is so lucrative. It's also the hometown of the Wu Kingdom. Even if the king remembers the kindness of saving this man, the ministers may not be willing to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Guo Zhu paused. , sighed.
"It's none of our business, come here, look at the paintings - when the time comes, you and I will advance and retreat together."

"Come on, Uncle Lu, this blind fish is only found in the caves at the foot of Shenshi Mountain. It is transparent, extremely delicious, and mild and nourishing. It is most suitable for your uncle's age. I specially ordered someone to save it for Uncle Lu. "Kelie took out a plate of soup from the thermal brocade box with his own hands and introduced it with a smile.
"I dare not call you such a young master!" Lu Jinhe stood up and bowed quickly.
During this period of time, Gongzilie came to visit whenever he had nothing to do. He could come three times in five days. Each time, he would bring some rare food and tea to Lu Jinhe to taste. He was also very respectful and respectful. The appearance of a junior paying homage to an elder.
It’s just that Lu Jinhe is still clear-headed and never dares to think of himself as the elder of Gongzi Lie - Gongzi Lie is the younger brother of Wu Wang Ketu. If he dares to think of himself as the elder of Gongzi Lie, then he wants to be the elder of Wu Wang Ketu. .
"You deserve it. Brother Lu and I hit it off as brothers as soon as we met. You are Brother Lu's father, and naturally you are also my uncle." Ke Lie stepped aside to pass the Lujin River gift and said:
"Uncle Lu, this soup won't taste good when it's cold. In addition, Brother Lu is about to return south to the Kingdom of Wu. My nephew is planning to leave for Lanshui tomorrow to greet him on behalf of my brother. I wonder if Uncle Lu has any instructions? "
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You can just call me by my first name. I don't have anything to say. I just want you to give Quanzi a message. If you feel unwell, walk slower and don't aggravate your injury." Lu Jinhe smiled brightly. He warned.
"Haha, my nephew must have brought uncle's words to Brother Lu. Uncle, I heard that Brother Lu Song has gone to the fiefdom?" Young Master Lie said goodbye and left, suddenly turning around and asking.
"The folk customs over there are strong and strong. The Lu family needs someone to take charge. Quanzi has gained some experience from walking outside these years, which can be put to use." Lu Jinhe showed a smile as happy as a chrysanthemum.
"Yes, after all, the fiefdom is about inheritance. It is indeed necessary for Uncle Lu to ask Brother Lu Song to go and take charge. In addition, if Uncle Lu is free, he might as well go to the fiefdom to have a look after some time." After finishing speaking, Young Master Lie turned around. leave.
Looking at Ke Lie's back, the smile on Lu Jinhe's face gradually disappeared.
