Painting Doctor Jinhua

"Girl, do you really want to see him?" After everyone in the room left, Ling Ye came to Xiao Jinyu privately and asked worriedly, "He suddenly wants to see you at this time, is it because of Xiao Yun's matter?"

Xiao Jinyu shook her head.

"If it was about Xiao Yun, he would have met him long ago. I'm afraid that the reason he has this intention now is related to the envoy from Zhou."

"But this envoy from Zhou doesn't know you, and you have never been to Zhou, right?"

Xiao Jinyu turned to Ling Ye and asked, "Are the envoys from Zhou Kingdom acquainted with Chen Shuling, the King of Shixing?"

Ling Ye nodded, "Of course I know him. Chen Xu, his princess and two sons were held hostage in the Zhou Kingdom. They were under the protection of Yuwen Hu. Yuwen Hu's sons often took this Prince of Shixing, Chen Shuling, with them when they went hunting. I think Chen Shuling was humiliated and bullied by the young men of the Yuwen family. Now that his status has changed from a hostage to a prince, his temperament seems to have become very strange.

Is the lady worried that the prince has colluded with the envoy Zhou? Or is he trying to use the envoy Zhou to deal with the lady?"

Xiao Jinyu nodded.

"Once Chen Shuling sets his mind on something, he won't give up. I'm afraid that's the case now." Xiao Jinyu sighed, then said, "However, Zhou sent four envoys, while Qi only sent Gao Changgong. Li Mi and Cui Heng were only invited by Xu Ling to attend the literary gathering, so they can't be considered Gao Changgong's helpers..."

"Are you worried that the envoys from these two countries are not just here to attend a simple gathering?"

Xiao Jinyu nodded again and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he continued, "If we want to maintain the current situation of the Three Kingdoms, no matter which country becomes stronger, the other two countries will adopt a strategy of alliance to protect themselves. Of course, there are also people who want to break this balance and unify the world!"

"What the girl means is that the envoys from these two countries might..."

Ling Ye seemed to have thought of something and looked at Xiao Jinyu in surprise.

"Then at this elegant gathering, ladies, be careful and don't get involved!"

Xiao Jinyu smiled, nodded again, and instructed Ling Ye:

"Help me protect the people here, especially Xiao Yuanshi. I'm afraid Princess Yunyin will send people to kill them at any time to eliminate future troubles!"

"Yes, don't worry, girl, I know!"

……

When Xiao Jinyu walked out of the courtyard with Xiao Xian, she saw Xiao Jian pacing in front of the door like an ant on hot pan, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps approaching. Xiao Jian looked up and saw that Xiao Xian and Xiao Jinyu were both dressed in plain clothes. He could not help but said angrily, "What are you doing? You are going to see His Majesty. Isn't dressing like this just bringing bad luck to His Majesty?"

Xiao Xian continued, "Father, you are wrong. Our Chen Kingdom also governs the world with filial piety. Ah Yu is mourning for her mother. Your Majesty will not blame her, but will praise her for being filial. Moreover, since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, scholars have always emphasized returning to nature and being open-minded. Ah Yu is just expressing her true nature. There is nothing wrong with that."

"You--" Xiao Jian wanted to refute, but he couldn't say anything.

Suddenly he turned his gaze to Xiao Jinyu: "Ah Yu, Grandfather is doing this for your own good. When you go there, you should answer whatever His Majesty asks you and do whatever he asks you to do. Don't be as arrogant as you were to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"Thank you for the reminder, Minister Xiao. If there is nothing else, Ah Yu will leave now!"

After saying this, he signaled Eunuch Wu to lead the way and walked quickly.

At this time, Xiao Jian suddenly shouted again: "Ayu, you said that if Yunlang is not fully recovered after seven days, you will come to find you, but now Yunlang..."

Xiao Jinyu turned around and asked, "Didn't you say it would be after seven days? It's already been seven days now?"

"Oh, no, no, grandpa is not urging..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Jinyu throwing something over. He quickly stepped forward and took the object into his arms. When he opened it, he found it was a scroll. However, the content of the scroll...

"Take this scroll back and show it to Xiao Yun. Show it every day!"

Xiao Jinyu emphasized, then walked forward without looking back, got on the carriage with Xiao Xian, and galloped towards Taicheng.

……

"She wants Yunlang to stare at the Buddha statue in the painting every day. What does that mean? Does she want me to become a monk?"

What was placed in front of Princess Yunyin at this time was a scroll painting of a Buddha statue, but what shocked Princess Yunyin was that the Buddha in the painting stood in front of her with the same majesty as the real Buddha, which made people have to stand in awe.

"There's nothing wrong with watching Buddha. Our great ancestor respected Buddha and ruled the country with Buddhism. Nowadays, the most talked about thing among scholars is Buddhism. Besides, Ah Yu said that Yunlang's physical injury is a minor matter. The main thing is that his mental illness needs to be cured!"

"What's wrong with our son?" Princess Yunyin retorted sarcastically with displeasure.

Xiao Jian pointed to a line of words on the scroll and said, "Isn't it written here? Neither good nor evil is the nature of the heart, having both good and evil is the movement of the mind, knowing good and evil is conscience, and doing good and eliminating evil is the study of things."

"What do you mean? Is she scolding my son for being heartless and conscienceless? Next time I see her, I have to ask her what she wants to do. It's a pity that this princess has been confined to her house and can't leave the house during this period!"

After grumbling for a while, Princess Yunyin turned and asked, "Did my brother really order her to go to the East Palace?"

"Yes!"

"Okay! With this bitch's temper, she will definitely displease my brother. I hope my brother can help us teach her a lesson!"

……

When they arrived at the Eastern Palace of Crown Prince Chen Shubao, Eunuch Wu asked Xiao Xian to wait outside and took Xiao Jinyu directly to the Eastern Palace.

As soon as they left, the phoenix came out from under the carriage. Only then did Xiao Xian realize that the Hu boy had been hiding quietly under the carriage and no one had discovered him.

"you--"

Before Xiao Xian could ask in surprise, Fenghuang asked first: "Xiao Xianlang, if she is in danger, can you guarantee that she will be out of danger?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xian couldn't help but look worried: Can he do it? With his current status and ability?

"I was worried, so I followed her, but I can only go here. Due to my status, I cannot enter the East Palace, but Xiao Xian, you can! So I hope you can enter the officialdom as soon as possible, at least when she needs help, you can stand by her side instead of waiting outside like you are now!"

Phoenix looked at him and said very sincerely.

At this moment, Eunuch Wu, who had arrived at the Ancient Xuanpu of the Eastern Palace, was reporting the news of Xiao Xian outside the Eastern Palace to Chen Xu.

"You mean, the most talented man in Jiankang, Xiao Xianlang, is here too?" Chen Xu asked curiously, his eyes fixed on Xiao Jinyu, who was dressed in plain clothes without any accessories. "I heard that you have cured Xiao Xianlang's long-standing illness. Did you also cure his legs that had been paralyzed for more than ten years?"

"Yes!" Xiao Jinyu replied.

"Come forward and look up at me!" Chen Xu ordered at this time, and at the same time said to Wu Nei Shi, "Go and let Xiao Xian in!"

"Yes!"

Eunuch Wu left, and Xiao Jinyu stepped forward as ordered. She also looked up at Chen Xu who was sitting at the top. When she saw him, her eyes couldn't help but be startled.

Twenty years have passed. Although for her, it was only half a year after death and rebirth, the person in front of her is different from the one in her memory. Both her appearance and temperament have changed greatly, but fortunately, her eyes that are good at hiding sinister tricks have not changed at all.

When she raised her head, the Zhou envoys and scholars who were looking at her expectantly couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.

"With this appearance, how can she be called stunning?" Someone couldn't help but shake his head and sighed.

"Where did Envoy Zhou hear that the granddaughter of the Xiao family is as stunningly beautiful as Han Zigao? Could it be that she was deceived?"

"That's right, that's right, even the maids in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace can't compare to her beauty!"

Yuwen Hui even took out the portrait that Chen Shuling dropped for comparison. After looking it up and down, he found a huge difference. He couldn't help but look at Chen Shuling with disappointment and anger.

Chen Shuling seemed to explain to Yuwen Hui, "I didn't say she looked like Han Zigao, but she was a pretty beauty. Why is she dressed so plainly today, and her face..." Suddenly thinking of something, Chen Shuling carefully glanced at the skin on her neck and hands, and sneered, "No, young lady, you are meaningless. My father summoned you to meet the envoys of Qi and Zhou. This is your honor. Why are you hiding your appearance like this? The skin on your neck and hands is smoother than snow, but your face is dark and haggard. You deliberately hide your face like this, isn't it deceiving the emperor?"
