Chapter 1709: Da Vinci's residence

Nearly seven o'clock in the afternoon, other unrelated people left the presidential suite.
Except for Ye Tian and Betty, only Anderson and Cole were left in the room, as well as Tyler and Lisa. The total number was only six people.
As Ye Tian's personal lawyer, Anderson will witness the next series of discoveries, and film them, and keep the corresponding video evidence!
As for Cole and the others, they are of course responsible for security to prevent anyone from breaking into the presidential suite without permission.
At the entrance of this presidential suite, there were four armed security guards armed with live ammunition.
Other places like both ends of the corridors, elevators, stairways, even hotel lobbies and roof terraces are also guarded.
In addition, security personnel are staring at every corner of this five-star hotel, including the facade of the hotel, through the hotel monitoring system and the temporary monitoring system installed by Kerr.
Even the ventilation ducts on this floor of the Four Seasons Hotel are equipped with many pinhole cameras and high-sensitivity infrared sensors, which are under close surveillance.
In this case, let alone one or a group of people, even a fly, and don't even want to hide from the eyes of the security personnel, cross the lines of defense, and sneak into the presidential suite where Ye Tian and Betty live.
In order to be sure, Ye Tian immediately called Wilson of Raytheon Security Company when he returned to the Four Seasons Hotel before, and sent another group of security personnel to Milan.
Those guys are already on the road at this time and will be able to arrive in Milan at night. When they arrive, they will stay in another hotel nearby to hide as a backup force.
Once something happens on the Four Seasons Hotel and requires armed support, those security personnel can rush to the hotel as soon as possible, pick up Ye Tian and the others, or attack them inside and outside, and kill all opponents!
After the door of the presidential suite was closed, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:
"Guys, let's start now, Anderson, you are in charge of the shooting, Cole, the three of you are in charge of security, staring at the door and outside the window."
As he said, he took the black walnut drawing board with "Lisa Gladini" stretched and placed it on the coffee table in the living room, ready to uncover the secrets hidden behind this masterpiece.
In fact, what secrets are hidden in this painting, as early as at the Milan Canal Antique Market, he knew it well, and he could see it clearly through perspective.
It's just a performance now. Only in this way can everything look reasonable and not arouse people's suspicion.
Seeing Ye Tian's movements, everyone's eyes in the room suddenly brightened, and their eyes were full of expectation and excitement.
Anderson raised the phone, pointed the camera of the phone at the oil painting on the coffee table, and started shooting.
Cole, Taylor, and Lisa, the three of them stood in a triangular position, staring at the suite door and floor-to-ceiling windows respectively, always maintaining a high degree of vigilance.
After putting "Lisa Gladini" on the coffee table, Ye Tian did not pull out the linen nail for the first time, but went aside and reached out to turn off the chandelier in the living room!
With his movements, the light in this suite suddenly became dimmed a lot. This is to avoid the irritation of strong light and cause unnecessary damage to this painting.
It is winter after all, and the sun has set in Milan near seven o'clock, and it is dusk.
After doing this, Ye Tian, ​​who returned to the coffee table, picked up the pliers and began to pull the nails of the original color linen, and put the pulled nails in a box, which will be used later!
In a moment, all the nails were pulled out one by one, and the piece of original color linen was then gently uncovered by Ye Tian, ​​revealing the "Lisa Gladini" covering the bottom.
Although everyone has already seen this masterpiece by Leonardo, but when they see it again at this time, they are still shocked and all eyes are fascinated.
"Although Lisa Gladini and Mona Lisa are not the same person, their smiles are so similar. I don't know what special meaning is there? It's so mysterious!"
"Who knows, in the past five hundred years, countless people have been studying this mysterious smile, but they have found nothing. Perhaps only Leonardo can understand the mystery!"
Everyone was full of curiosity while watching the "Lisa Gladini" on the coffee table and talking about it.
After appreciating it for a while, Ye Tian picked up the pliers again and began to pull out the nail that was driving "Lisa Gladini".
Compared to when he removed the nails with the original color linen, he has become more cautious, lest he accidentally damage this priceless treasure.
Two or three minutes later, the nails with a history of more than one hundred years were pulled out one by one by Ye Tian and put them in the box next to them.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian put the pliers in his hand aside, picked up a pair of white gloves that had been prepared from the side, and put them on his hands.
The most important moment finally arrived. Everyone in the suite was holding their breath, staring at the "Lisa Gladini" on the drawing board, and staring at Ye Tian's every move.
Looking at Ye Tian again, he stretched out his hands and gently pinched the upper two corners of the canvas of "Lisa Gladini", and then carefully picked up the oil painting from the drawing board.
He just picked up this priceless oil on canvas, and Betty beside him suddenly said in surprise:
"Wow! There is actually another painting under this oil painting, which looks like the creative draft of "Lisa Gladini" and has the author's signature on it!"
Hearing this, the others in the suite looked over immediately.
I saw under the oil painting, there was indeed a sketch, relatively small in size, and it was Lisa Gladini painted on it!
In the lower right corner of the sketch, there are two lines of squiggly Latin with fairly clear handwriting.
The first line in Latin is Lisa Gladini's name, which is the same as the signature in the lower right corner of the oil painting. The bottom line is Leonardo’s personal signature. The initials of ‘LV’ are clear at a glance!
The moment I saw these two lines of swash Latin, excited cheers immediately sounded in the suite.
"Undoubtedly, this "Lisa Gladini" is an outstanding work by Leonardo da Vinci, and the signature on the manuscript is enough to explain everything."
"It's really great. The discovery of this creative manuscript will definitely increase the value of "Lisa Gladini" and be more convincing!"
Just as Betty and the others cheered, Ye Tian had already removed the oil painting, carefully held it in his hands, and began to appreciate it over and over.
The next second, he suddenly pretended to be surprised and said:
"There is also a line of Latin on the back of this oil painting. The handwriting should come from Leonardo da Vinci himself, but I don't know what it means."
As he said, he gently put down the oil painting in his hand, and in turn spread it flat on the original color linen with the back facing up.
At the same time, Betty and Anderson all looked over, eyes full of curiosity.
After a few glances, Anderson suddenly said:
"This line of Latin seems to be a place name. Maybe it's in Milan. The most glorious period of Leonardo's artistic career was spent in Milan, but the exact location is unknown!"
"It doesn't matter, we can look it up in the dictionary, I believe it is not difficult to understand the meaning of this line of Latin, I hope it is a place name somewhere in Milan, it may be the residence of Leonardo da Vinci in Milan!
There is no doubt that this "Lisa Gladini" set a precedent. In other works of Leonardo, there is no such a lot of text information at all, and even the personal signature is hidden."
Ye Tian smiled and nodded and said, looking forward to it.
After that, he took the Latin dictionary that had been prepared a long time ago and began to look up the meaning of that line of Latin.
It didn't take long for the answer to come out. That line of Latin was indeed a place name, and it was the name of a street.
Next, they searched the Internet for a city map of Milan in the early sixteenth century, and compared it with the current city map of Milan.
Soon, the answer was before everyone's eyes.
"From the map, this is an old street near the Sforza Castle. It was built in the early 14th century, very close to the Sforza Castle. It may be Leonardo’s residence in Milan.
Whether this judgment is correct or not requires further research. If it is really the place where Leonardo once lived, it must be another major discovery, and maybe it can bring a huge surprise.
After Leonardo left Florence and came to Milan, he soon established a friendship with Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, and the two hit it off and became the Duke’s royal painter.
For eighteen years since then, Leonardo has been living in Milan, and during this period he completed several of the most important portraits. The women in the paintings are all related to the Duke of Milan.
At that time, Sforza Castle had replaced Milan Cathedral Square and became the political center of Milan, as well as the castle and ruling center of the Sforza family. The city's defenses were solid!
As a close friend of the Duke of Milan and a royal painter ~EbookFREE.me~, in many historical records, Leonardo lived in Sforza Castle for a long time, and it is normal to have a residence near the castle.
This ancient street still exists today. We can go there and visit it later. If there really is the residence of Leonardo, I believe I will find it! "
Ye Tian said with a smile, full of confidence in his words.
Betty and Anderson nodded in excitement, both full of expectations.
Next, Ye Tian picked up a high-powered magnifying glass from the table and began to carefully study this masterpiece of Da Vinci.
Of course, this was just a pose, and it was performed for Anderson, the others, and everyone else.
Five or six minutes later, Ye Tian's surprised voice came out again.
"Sure enough, this oil painting is the same as the "Mona Lisa". There are hidden mysterious characters and Leonardo's personal signature in the painting. It is in Lisa Gladini's hair..."
