Painter

In the study room, the pen touches the paper, writes the word "tea", and turns it into a teapot.

Mai Wang poured Li Chan a bowl of tea.Li Chan thanked her, took the tea, took a sip, and closed her eyes to rest.Autumn rain has started outside, and Maiwang is making tea quietly, the only sound in the room is the sound of tea being poured into a bowl.

Li Chan, who had been working hard for several days, only rested for a while, then opened his eyes, "Sir, didn't you see any clues from that article?"

"Lang Jun thinks highly of this old man." Mai Wang put down the teapot, and said with a wry smile, "Some famous writers have their own style of writing, and their style of writing is unique. This demon book is not among them. When I read this demon book, the old man has the agility of Zhuang Zixiu, but also There is Liu Zhigui's elegance and health, and he has learned the strengths of many families. This author must be a person who is well-informed. However, talented people in the world are not necessarily famous. For example, Lang Jun's painting is already amazing. , It was also unknown before. However, although the old man can't see the origin of this article, if he can read the original manuscript of this demon book, he might be able to read and understand people."

"Where is the original manuscript?" Li Chan shook his head, "The engraving place has been found, and even the engraving is burned..." As he was speaking, he saw that his pulse was hesitant to speak, and asked: "Sir, what else do you want to say?" of?"

Mai Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "The author of this demon book may be a woman."

Li Chan raised her eyebrows, took out a demon book from her bosom, looked at the words and sentences in it, and said hesitantly: "Why did you say that, sir? Just judging from the writing in this book, it seems impossible to tell that it was written by a woman."

"This old man just had a whim, so you don't have to take it to heart." Mai Wang said, "It's not because the words in the book are graceful and soft, but because the name of the 'God Capital Zhao Changyi' is said to be written by a woman. Lang. You know Yue Yu's name, right?"

Yueyu is the god of the moon in ancient times, and Li Chan replied without thinking: "Changxi, people in Chu also call Wangshu."

After finishing speaking, Li Chan pondered for a while, and then said: "Could it be, this 'Chang Yi'..."

The sky was as blue as blue, and the autumn rain fell desolately on the top of Ningyin Hall.The horned beasts bathed in water drops, and one of the flying fish jumped down the corner of the eaves and swam into the ditch under the house.There are scattered red leaves falling beside the canal, which shows that the palace people are not diligent in cleaning. Although it is beautiful, it looks a bit barren.The flying fish then made its way through the rain and jumped into the hands of a woman at the window.The woman was wearing a lotus-colored palace dress, about 30 years old, and there were some poetry collections and lyrics on the bookshelf beside her.Flying fish circled around her finger a few times, then left abruptly.The woman smiled happily. In this isolated place, these eaves beasts are her rare companions.

Mai Wang's words awakened Li Chan. Jiang Ru's ambition is to seek the Tao, and he should not be the same as Zhao Changyi who intends to disturb the court. He said: "Since Zhao Changyi can avoid the search of Shenzhasi and Jinwuwei, He must be very powerful in Yujing City. This case also involves seizing the heir, so it makes sense that this person came from the palace." He paused, then shook his head: "But since Zhao Changyi is very cunning, really Will you reveal your own flaws in this alias?"

"But in the final analysis, it's just a guess." Mai Wang said, "Don't take it too seriously, sir, don't be influenced by the old man's nonsense."

The woman said: "Yuan Jun likes it, I'll let someone clean it up."

The woman was startled for a moment, but immediately came to her senses, and said with a smile, "It all depends on Yuan Jun's suggestion."

The word "Yuanjun" is the Taoist honorific title for Kun Dao, which is equivalent to the "real person" of Qian Dao.The person inside the curtain is obviously a young man, but the lady in palace attire calls him "Yuan Jun".But the man didn't care about this address, he just waved his hand, "When I come back next time, I think you won't be in this Condensing Yin Palace anymore."

……

But at this time there is still a guest in the hall, the guest is a man, sitting in the curtain and half leaning on the bed to eat grapes, unable to see his face clearly.The woman watched the flying fish disappear into the autumn rain outside the window, while the man inside the curtain looked out the window, "The autumn water in the Yugou is clearer than the one outside."

Just when Li Chan was hesitating, Mai Wang said: "Lang Jun said, this Zhao Changyi...could be from the palace?"

Li Chan said: "If this is the case, the author of this demon book may really be a woman, and her ambitions are not small..." As he spoke, Li Chan frowned, remembering the morning when the bird book flew all over Yujing City, in the school palace. Inside, the scholars speculated that the person who wrote the demon book came from Qianyuan Academy.

She is both a Qianyuan bachelor and a woman.As Li Chan thought about it, a familiar figure flashed in her heart.Then I thought of the song "Turning the Wheel" in the spring test last year. Now, my ambitions are also in line.

"The word "Changyi" is so remote. If it wasn't for Mr. who feeds on words, he wouldn't be able to recognize it. It would be even more difficult for others to think of it. In Zhao Changyi's eyes, this shouldn't be a flaw." Li Chan pondered for a while, frowned. Frowning, "If you want to investigate the palace, there are many obstacles." Then, he looked down at the saber at his waist, and slowly stroked the hilt with his hand.

"These bird books are just the beginning, and there are other things to come. I can't do it alone." The man smiled, "

Mai Wang said: "Mr. Lang is really familiar with strange things. When I was eating books in Lantai, I read a book of strange things from the previous dynasty. There is also Yueyu in this book, but it is not called Changxi and Wangshu, but It's called Chang Yi. If this Chang Yi is that Chang Yi, if this Zhao Chang Yi is a man, he shouldn't compare himself to Yue Yu."

"Lang Jun's suspicion is not unreasonable, but..." Mai Wang looked at the locust leaves that had been knocked down by the rain outside the window, and said with emotion: "Since Zhao Changyi compares himself to Yueyu, he must be very conceited. I think back then, when the old man was still alive , Although he has no ambitions, he is also extremely conceited. Such a person has done a major event that shocked the world, but he can't reveal his identity. I am afraid that it is more uncomfortable than letting him die. This person's famous ambitions should be used to comfort himself."

"With Lord Yuan in charge, of course I will not slack off." The woman smiled and said, "I heard that many people have been arrested outside."

The man smiled and said, "The more arrests the better. Do you think they are investigating cases? They just want to arrest more people, find a suitable scapegoat, and take care of these things so that they can report to Li Yin."

The man's words reassured the woman a lot.This Yuanjun has a lot of background, he is the mysterious and unpredictable Lord of Qingqiu, with the title of "Bixu Yuanjun".It is said that when the sage chased away demons back then, this Yuanjun also mediated among them.It is rumored that the master of Qingqiu has treacherous methods and clever schemes like a god, and the woman has experienced it now.This Yuanjun had never displayed any powerful supernatural powers. The woman was only guided by him and wrote an article that shook the entire Yujing City. This was something she had never dared to think about before.However, she was still a little worried.

"I heard that the sage even sent a Qianyuan scholar to investigate the case..."

"Is that the Gyeonggi Youyi envoy?" The man smiled, "Li Yin only used him because of his clean background. In the end, he is just a painter, even if he has some skills, he can't make any waves. .”
