Chapter 120: Have you collected my portrait

The Yan Min incident happened so fast that even some people in the ruling and the opposition were unable to react. Concubine Hui's mood is extremely complicated. After all, Yan Min was raised by her name, and she has a feeling of mother and child. But Concubine Hui also felt that she was unable to return to heaven, so she finally had to repair a book and ask Qin Jiu to send someone to Tianchen Sect. The person they supported has fallen. Naturally, such major events must be reported to the suzerain.
Such major events have been spread in and out of the country for a long time. Naturally, they can't hide from Lian Yuren. Qin Jiu knew that he would know sooner or later, because she had already had countermeasures, so in accordance with Huifei's instructions, sent people to spread the letter to Tianchen Sect.
Although Wang Hu and Shuangyu had set up a gambling game for King Kangyang, they had no way of knowing the crown because King Kangyang went on a micro server, and as ordinary people, they could not know the crown. In the end, they were only charged with gambling privately, and they were kept in prison for a few times. Later, it was released. They followed Qin Jiu's order and sold the shop, pretending to be unable to live in Beijing, and quietly left Lijing City in one day and night.
Just when the middle of Beijing was still fluctuating due to Yan Min's affairs, Durian's birthday arrived.
Although Qin Jiu had said that he could not go to his birthday, but now think about it, he hasn't had his birthday for several years. Knowing that durian likes pen, ink, paper and inkstone, she carefully selected a piece of Songhua inkstone. Finally, she remembered the painting she bought at the Xishi Calligraphy and Painting Shop. She just bought it at will. It was useless at first. Let the lychee wrap the scroll and Songhua inkstone and take it to Durian Mansion.
On that day, Qin Jiu didn't want durian to be involved in Yan Min's case, so he didn't tell him the matter in detail, only to mention it to him intentionally or unintentionally. Unexpectedly, Durian's performance was unexpectedly calm and wise. Durian is now growing faster than she originally expected. Moreover, he seemed to vaguely perceive that she was not the same as Tianchen Sect, so she didn't dislike her as much as before.
Durian's mansion is not far from Qin Jiu's mansion. You don't need to ride a carriage, just walk around a street and you're there. When Qin Jiu arrived at the Durian Mansion, he saw several carriages parked in front of the gate, and it was obvious that someone had already gotten aboard first.
The housekeeper and guard in the Durian Mansion were all arranged by her. Seeing her coming, Qin Jiu asked, "Who is here?"
The housekeeper whispered: "The three princesses of the Yunshao Kingdom, King Yan, King Anling, and several officials of the Criminal Ministry have all come to give gifts. Now, several officials of the Criminal Ministry have left, only the third Princess of Yunshao King Anling and King Yan want to stay and eat."
Qin Jiu frowned, "How do they know that today is your master’s birthday?" Durian only entered Beijing with her this year and never had his birthday here. How these people know, it’s not surprising that Shang Chuchu knows it, it’s just Yan. How did Su and Yan Yu know?
The butler lowered his voice and said: "The young ones went to buy birthday bags yesterday and met the girl Xi Shi from the Palace of King Yan. As for Lord Anling and several officials of the Criminal Ministry, they were invited by Lord Qin. They had just used meals. Left."
That's why Qin Jiu nodded. She knew that Durian had always respected Yan Su, but she did not expect that he would invite him to his birthday banquet. Qin Jiu walked towards the flower hall of the mansion under the guidance of the housekeeper. The flower hall is built in the back garden, surrounded by lush forests and lush grass.
Shang Chuchu first saw Qin Jiu, got up from his seat and greeted him, "Sister Qin, why did you come?"
Qin Jiufeng narrowed his eyes, smiled and glanced at the flower hall, "I was waiting for someone to invite me, but who knows that after waiting for a long time, I didn't wait, so I had to come cheeky."
Yan Yu crouched Erlang's legs, leaned on the chair, held a purple grape in his fingers, and said to Qin Jiu: "It turns out that this king is not the only one who is cheeky!"
Durian got up uncomfortably and said, "Isn't Jiuye saying that he is busy and won't come to join in the fun." It turned out that Durian took her words that day seriously.
Qin Jiu's gaze turned, and he saw Yan Su wore a peacock purple plain gown, a wooden hairpin, and there were no other extras on his body. He sat there with a cold face and cold eyes. Look at the hustle and bustle of all this.
"No matter how busy I am, I can't miss Qin Shangshu's birthday." Qin Jiu smiled and walked to the flower hall.
Lychee opened the package he was holding, and handed the Songhua inkstone and scrolls prepared by Qin Jiu to the durian and said, "This is a gift from Jiuye for Qin Shangshu."
Loquat saw that what Qin Jiu presented was a piece of Songhua inkstone and a scroll, and recognized that it was the painting that Qin Jiu had bought in the West Market. His expression suddenly became stiff, and he couldn't understand why Qin Jiu put such a painting. Give durian a birthday gift.
Before Durian received the gift, she stretched out a hand diagonally and took the scroll. Yan Yuyang grabbed the scroll in his hand, "Is this Jiuye's painting? Let this king appreciate it." Yan Yu put the scroll on the table unceremoniously and opened it a little bit.
Durian was also curious about what painting Qin Jiu gave him, and stared at it. When the scroll was opened, his face suddenly changed.
The faint sunlight shines on the painting that has just been opened, and the man in the painting seems to be alive. No matter where you move to, those clear eyes will look at you.
The man in the painting can be seen as Yan Su. He is dressed in a light purple plain robe, with tenderness in his eyes and affection between his brows. He is leaning against the willow tree by the pond, and his appearance is like jade.
Qin Jiu's face changed slightly.
Yan Su is outstanding in style, and many calligraphy and painting shops privately engraved his portraits. There were no women in the boudoir who did not collect his portraits. Back then, she also personally painted for Yan Su, but she somehow went out and was printed and sold by the calligraphy and painting shop. Back then, she was extremely angry about this. Unexpectedly, today, calligraphy and painting shops are still selling.
On that day, she did not even look at the painting, so she bought it. At this moment, I remembered the somewhat ambiguous words of the treasurer of the calligraphy and painting shop. I must have thought that Yan Su had married Su Wanxiang, but he did not expect that someone would buy his portrait privately.
Yan Yu's gaze flicked across the painting, and he kept his gaze suddenly. Yan Su is the same, his expression is obviously stiff.
Durian looked at the portrait, then at Qin Jiu, "Jiuye, is this really for me?"
"This painting, could it be that it is a portrait of Qin Shangshu painted by Jiuye? Jiuye is an amazing painter." Yan Yu stared at the portrait and smiled a little strangely.
Qin Jiu stepped forward and picked up the scroll, "I gave it the wrong way."
Yan Yu picked up a grape and threw it into his mouth, and suddenly felt a sour taste. "Oh, it's wrong, then Jiuye was originally going to give it to Su'er?"
Qin Jiu smiled and said: "Where do I have such a painter, I bought it at a street shop. I bought too much at the time and I took it wrong when I came to the house. In fact, the portrait of His Royal Highness Anling, Li There are a lot of boudoir girls in the capital, so don’t you blame me for collecting this painting. Now that your Highness sees it, it’s better to forward it to His Highness Anling King!
He rolled up the painting and walked to Yan Su. "His Royal Highness Anling, your marriage with Miss Su is a very happy event. You must have jewelry or something. Your Highness will definitely not lack. This painting is given to your Highness as a gift. Speaking of which, I think the painting is serious. Looks like you."
In fact, Qin Jiu really didn't want to give this painting to Yan Su. Because, after all, this was what she did back then, and Yan Su was not rare.
Yan Su's eyes condensed, and he stretched out his hand to pick it up.
Qin Jiu suddenly took the scroll back, "I am confused. I shouldn't give this painting to your Highness. If Miss Su knows about it, I'm afraid it will be misunderstood. Why, I'll prepare another gift and send it over another day. If this painting remains in my hands, I’m afraid it will make Miss Su misunderstand it. It’s best to destroy it.
As he said, he stretched out his hand to open the painting, and tore it to pieces in threes or twos.
The expressions of everyone in the flower hall were different, but they were obviously a little dazed.
"How do I feel Jiuye seems to hate me?" Yan Su suddenly asked.
hate? !
Qin Jiu pinned the word.
Yes, she hates him.
People say that if you love someone more deeply, when he betrays you, you will hate him more.
Back then, how much she loved him, later, how much she hated him.
This torture of love and hatred is deeper than the physical torment. That day and night, the torture of bones and maggots lingered in her heart countless times. She once thought that if she saw him one day, she would definitely double the torture back to him. However, on the day of the Spring Festival, when he and Su Wanxiang were paired on Tianmen Street, and the lantern made by her hand was delivered to Su Wanxiang, the deep hatred in her heart suddenly became a big one. joke. And she herself seemed to suddenly become a clown.
What's the use of her hating him? He has long been at ease with other women, and he has deep affection.
After the catastrophe of life and death, all the things of that day, regardless of love and hatred, have turned into morning fog, and disappeared without a trace when the sun came out.
Now, she doesn't hate him!
But he must also pay the due price for everything he has done!
Qin Jiu looked at Yan Yan's clear eyebrows close at hand, and smiled sweetly: "Yes, I hate you. I think all the girls in Lijing City hate you, because of you, I married Su Wanxiang!"
Yan Su frowned slightly and smiled faintly, "Jiuye said and laughed."
Qin Jiu pulled the chair away and sat down slowly, "It's real, more real than real gold. I not only hate you, but I also hate Su Wanxiang. Your Royal Highness must protect your fiancee, otherwise, what if The girl couldn’t help it anymore. She slapped Miss Su. Don’t doubt me, but when I talk about it, I think of one thing. Third princess, do you remember assassinating you at Mingyue Villa That assassin, named Cuilan, I heard that she is now Miss Su's personal maid, what's the matter? Could it be that Cuilan was Miss Su's maid originally, Miss Su sent her to assassinate the third princess of?"
Qin Jiu's words successfully aroused Yan Su's disgust. He frowned and said coldly: "I have already explained this to the two princesses of Yunshao Kingdom. Cuilan is not an assassin, and besides, this matter is also not a turn. Take care of Jiuye."
"Sister Qin, Na Cuilan is indeed not necessarily an assassin." Shang Chuchu said hurriedly upon seeing this.
Shang Chuchu is really a pretty woman. She is obsessed with Yan Su. Now that Yan Su has a deep love for Su Wanxiang, she has reduced her infatuation. Now facing Yan Su, she is no longer so uncomfortable.
"So, what is your Royal Highness's name... Yes, the hound called Tiger Claw caught the wrong one? What about the real assassin? Shouldn't she just let her go?" Qin Jiu said aggressively.
Yan Su obviously didn't bother to fight Qin Jiu anymore. He got up and said to Durian: "Qin Shangshu, don't bother, I will leave now."
Durian got up to see off the guests, Yan Yu sat on the chair, smiled and looked at Qin Jiu, staring at Yan Su's back, reaching out his fingers and holding the grapes, while slowly peeling the grapes, he asked: "Jiu Ye , In your mansion, do you have a portrait of this king?"
It was the first time that Qin Jiu saw someone eating a grape and peeling it.
"Not really!" Qin Jiu Shi Ran said.
Yan Yu was obviously injured, "Is this king not as good as Su'er?"
In fact, the collection of Yan Yu's portraits is not necessarily less than that of Yan Su, but Qin Jiu happened to buy Yan Su's.
"The prince should eat less grapes. Why do I think your words are so sour."
"Is it sour? This grape is really sour, and Jiuye will taste it too." Yan Yu grabbed a grape and threw it towards Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu stretched out his fingers, pinched the grapes between his fingers to play with, and said to Shang Chuchu on one side: "Three princesses, can you give your gift?"
Shang Chuchu's face blushed, and she stood up and said, "Jiuye, I'm going back to the post house first." It must be because the congratulatory gift hadn't taken the shot, so she went to find the durian to send it. Qin Jiu guessed that she should have sent the sachet.
"Jiu Ye, this king discovered that Qin Shangshu is indeed a great talent. You were right at the beginning." Yan Yu said while peeling the grapes.
Qin Jiu smiled and said: "I have already talked about this with the prince. By the way, the king of Kangyang has been cut from the throne. Does the prince have any next steps?"
Yan Yu curled his lips and said, "Actually, I think Jiuye is a great talent. I don't know what Jiuye plans to do?"
"I think the Lord's opportunity has arrived." Qin Jiu said with a smile.
When Kangyang Wang Yanmin fell, the crown prince seemed to be in Yan Su's pocket, but it was not.
Although Emperor Qing is weak now, he is still a British year after all, and he is definitely not willing to delegate power. Otherwise, he would not have been indulging the two princes to fight each other over the years. Now, Yan Min fell too early. Without the power to contain Yan Su, Emperor Qing can rest assured?
Jin Wuwei in Beijing is in the hands of King Anling, and there are people from Yan Su in the army. With such a powerful force, Emperor Qing must promote another person to balance Yan Su's power. And Emperor Qing had no other princes, only the younger brother Yan Yu. In the next step, I'm afraid Emperor Qing will promote and support Yan Yu.
Qin Jiu actually had his own plan, and Yan Min was obviously not Yan Su's opponent. What Qin Jiu wanted was someone more capable of confronting Yan Su, and that person was Yan Yu.
