Painting Doctor Jinhua

Chapter 80 Chen Xu's Test

After all, it was the Emperor of Chen who issued an order to expel everyone, so even if some people were reluctant, they had to leave.

Yuwen Hui, Yuwen Zhi and other four Zhou envoys quickly left the East Palace. After getting on the carriage, Yuwen Hui could not help but complain.

"The Emperor of Chen is really different now. He came to the East Palace this time to use that young lady to warn us. There is a hidden meaning in his words!"

"After all, he is the ruler of a country. How could he be the same as the previous hostage? However, this Emperor Chen is very well hidden. Father may have guessed wrong. The new Emperor of Chen is not a weak and incompetent tyrant, but an old fox who hides himself well."

Prince Yuwen Xun said in a deep voice, with some worry in his tone.

Yuwen Zhi disagreed and smiled with disdain.

"I don't care what the emperor of the Chen Kingdom is like, but Chen Shuling deliberately dropped a portrait, and the young lady we saw is really extraordinary. Although I don't know what she really looks like, I see that her skin is whiter than snow, her figure is graceful, and her bones reveal the graceful and elegant demeanor of a noble family. I think she must be a lovely person."

Speaking of beauties, Yu Wenhui's interest suddenly increased.

"You also think that this young lady has intentionally concealed her appearance? Is she really as beautiful as in Chen Shuling's portrait?"

"Whether there is or not, we will know when we have the chance to find out later!"

At this point, Yuwen Zhi sighed again, "I'm afraid that Gao Changgong has already gotten there first. At the banquet in the Eastern Palace today, I saw that he seemed very nervous about this young lady. It is said that this young lady has lived with her mother in Northern Qi for fifteen years. Could it be that she and Gao Changgong had been together since Northern Qi..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted and Yu Wenhui sneered.

"You are wrong. I have carefully observed her today and it is clear that she is still a virgin..."

At this point, Gu Dushan, who had been standing quietly by the side, could no longer listen and interrupted, "Everyone, what is the purpose of our coming to Chen State? She is just a young lady who is good at painting, and she is not someone else's concubine. How can you humiliate her at will?"

Yuwen Hui couldn't help but laugh and looked at Dugu Shan in surprise.

"You are such a taciturn person. I thought you couldn't talk. Why, you are also feeling sorry for that young lady? But didn't you let slip something? She is not only good at painting, but also good at medicine. She is a miracle doctor who can make a man who has been paralyzed for more than ten years and is destined to live past the age of 25 stand up!"

There is nothing great about being good at painting, it is just to gain the reputation of a talented woman. But if you are a miracle doctor who can prolong people's life and bring the dead back to life, that would be amazing.

Dugu Shan was not thinking about this, but asked with some doubt:

"She said that her paintings can touch people's hearts, understand human nature, and judge people's character. Have you ever thought about what she meant?"

……

"You said that your paintings can touch people's hearts, understand human nature, and judge human character. What does that mean?" In an empty hall in the East Palace, Chen Xu also looked at Xiao Jinyu and asked.

Xiao Jinyu looked at Chen Xu coldly, and suddenly curved her lips into a smile.

"If Your Majesty can look carefully at the painting I drew, you will understand the meaning of it!" she said.

It's not that Chen Xu didn't understand, but the look in the eyes of the Zhou envoy looking at the Qi envoy, and the look in the eyes of Chen Shuling looking at Chen Shubao, the artistic conception depicted in the Spring and Autumn style of writing was so thought-provoking that it couldn't help but make people think more.

However, he still didn't believe it, and asked again: "You only met with Envoy Zhou once today, so you really know their personalities so well?"

Xiao Jinyu smiled again.

"Your Majesty, all appearances are false. It is not important whether my paintings can reveal human nature. What is important is how Your Majesty sees and thinks. If Your Majesty believes, it exists. If you don't believe, then leave it to fate. You will see the result in the future, isn't it?"

Chen Xu was suddenly startled, and actually felt that there was a hint of sarcasm in the girl's smile.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go back!"

Xiao Jinyu raised her hand and bowed, then turned around and walked out of the hall without looking back.

After walking about five or six steps, a voice suddenly came from behind:

"Thank you, Yuqing!"

Xiao Jinyu did not stop or look back.

The voice sighed in disappointment and shouted again: "Xiao Jinyu!"

Xiao Jinyu paused and asked:

"Why did your Majesty call me?"

After another silence, a voice came from behind:

"You look like an old friend of mine!"

After that, he sighed heavily and said earnestly, "It's so similar that I had an illusion that she had returned to the world. Do you think there is really an afterlife?"

Xiao Jinyu did not answer.

He continued, "Sometimes I feel regretful when I think about it, but I really had no choice at the time. If she hadn't died in my hands, perhaps the ending would have been more terrible than death. She is a noble lady of the Xie family, and she has her pride and self-esteem. I know she would definitely not want to endure the humiliation of her enemies, so I will fulfill her pride and let her die pure and innocent, without even any pain..."

"Afterwards, I avenged her. I think she must be very happy in her grave. After all, I did it. I achieved what she wanted to see: the people live in peace and the country is forever stable!"

"This is her ideal, and it is also my ideal. You see, when she sees the current Chen State, which is gradually becoming richer and stronger, she should be happy, right?"

Having said that, he seemed to be waiting for an answer from Xiao Jinyu.

However, after a long time, Xiao Jinyu replied: "I don't understand what your majesty is saying, and why you are telling me, but if your majesty has finished speaking, I will take my leave!"

This time Chen Xu did not stop her, so Xiao Jinyu walked straight into the main hall, crossed the back garden, and walked out of the East Palace.

Xiao Xian and Fenghuang had been waiting outside for a long time. When they saw Xiao Jinyu coming out of the East Palace led by the eunuchs, they immediately went to greet her.

"How is it? His Majesty..."

Seeing Xiao Xian's sad eyes and Fenghuang's angry eyes, Xiao Jinyu smiled slightly and shook his head, "Nothing, Your Majesty is just asking how my paintings can touch people's hearts, understand human nature, and judge people's character?"

"So how do you answer?"

Or how did you do it? How could you capture the thoughts and ideas of the guests in the East Palace in the painting in just a cup of tea?

What a vivid painting! It was so detailed, down to the movements, expressions and eyes of every person, down to the mysterious smile at the corner of the emperor's lips, and even the cruel jealousy in the eyes of King Shixing, and the treacherous and treacherous look in Yuwen Zhi's eyes.

"It seems that Uncle Xian has taken a serious look at my painting." Xiao Jinyu said with a smile, "Uncle Xian, do you still remember what I said? I can read faces, see people's eyes, and analyze the current situation. It is not difficult to draw conclusions, but the key is that someone believes it!"

She believed that Chen Xu was not a person who believed in fate, so even if she could plant a seed of doubt in his heart, that would be enough.

"Ah Yu, you are truly different from ordinary people. Today, even Uncle Xian has been greatly enlightened!"

Xiao Xian couldn't help but sigh, and Xiao Jinyu smiled, and the three of them got on the carriage and drove towards Jianxi Hutong.

Wu the eunuch hurried back to the main hall, but seeing Chen Xu still standing in the hall with a suspicious look on his face, he bowed and rushed over to ask:

"Your Majesty, the young lady has left. Is she returning to the palace now?"

Chen Xu suddenly shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"I am so confused that I actually still believe in the reincarnation mentioned in Buddhism. If a person dies, he will never come back!"

After sighing, he took out the painting of the Eastern Palace Night Banquet and looked at it carefully. As he looked at it, his face suddenly changed and he suddenly gave an order in a deep voice:

"Find someone to check and see what King Shixing has been doing recently?"

"Yes!"

"Also, pass my order to Mao Xi and have him send someone to closely monitor the Zhou envoy's every move!"

"Yes!"
