I didn't become a princess today

Chapter 6 Whose is this?

Snow satins are expensive, where can a mere concubine get money to buy snow satins?

"It's nonsense! You have no evidence, why are you slandering me!" Shen Qianqian was anxious, but she also knew that she must not admit it, otherwise she would become a laughing stock among noble girls from then on.

Wei Yan was also happy when he heard it, and said: "Then why don't you ask Dali Temple Minister to come and try this theft case."

Dali Temple Minister?

Shen Qianqian had never seen such a battle before, her legs were trembling, she knelt in front of Wei Yan, crying and begging for mercy: "Qianqian really didn't steal it, you have to believe me, my son, it is Shen Yuan who is slandering me..."

Wei Yan took a step back in disgust, for fear that Shen Qianqian would jump on his feet.Shen Yuan stood in front of Wei Yan without a trace, and said to Zhu Lan, the maid beside Shen Qianqian: "Shame on her, send her back home."

"Grandma asked me to come, what right do you have to send me back?!" Shen Qianqian knelt on the ground and looked at Shen Yuan bitterly.

"Are you going back home by yourself now, or should I send someone to take you to the prison of Dali Temple, and choose one?" Shen Yuan raised her eyes, a cold light flickered in her peach-blossom eyes, and the smile on her face subsided, obviously angry.

"I do not……"

"Then just break the leg and send it to prison." Wei Yan interrupted Shen Qianqian's words, impatiently.

Shen Qianqian choked, how could she dare to say no, and left in embarrassment with Zhulan.

She must go back and complain to her grandmother, and let her take care of her!
"It doesn't take so much talking to deal with such a fool." Wei Yan said after taking the fruit wine poured by Shen Yuan.

"Your Majesty is used to being superior, and there are many people who protect you, so you can do things without worrying about the consequences. But I can't. My parents died since I was young, and my grandmother didn't like it. My elder brother died in battle when I was seven years old. Now my sister guards the border instead of my elder brother. , not in Chang'an, how dare I be willful?"

Shen Yuan's tone was flat, as if what she said was not her own business.

Wei Yan's heart was a little touched, and from the corner of his eye, he saw Shen Yuan's calm expression, not even a hint of sadness on his face, and frowned, "Aren't you sad?"

Shen Yuan smiled without saying a word, but the hands under the sleeves trembled slightly.

She took the picture scroll, got up and said to Wei Yan: "I'll go find Gu Xingzhi, and I will come back as soon as possible."

As soon as Shen Yuan turned around, the smile on her face could no longer be maintained, and her immature face was full of sadness. At the age of 14, she had already experienced the most painful life and death in the world.

After Shen Yuan left, Wei Yan looked at the wine in the wine cup and felt agitated.

Shen Yuan held up the hem of her skirt and stepped on the high stone steps all the way up to the Luohua Pavilion.Listening to the whistling wind, the clothes fluttered, and the heart slowly calmed down.

In the Luohua Pavilion, an old man over [-] years old with white hair and a childlike face is holding a brush in his hand and bowing his waist to paint.

This person is the royal painter in the palace, Gu Xingzhi.

Shen Yuan saw that he was now fully focused on the painting she wrote, so she didn't make a sound to disturb, but stood aside holding her painting scroll, watching quietly.

The scene drawn by Gu Xingzhi's pen is exactly this month's Moon Mountain.In the painting, there are many peaks and ridges, continuous winding, forests, birds, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions, with meticulous attention to detail.The next one was making a cup of water, so Gu Xingzhi took this scene and drew it on paper. The characters on the painting were clearly outlined, even their demeanor.

Shen Yuan was amazed in her heart, she deserves to be a master of the generation.

Shen Yuan waited at the side, not feeling bored, but kept watching Gu Xingzhi's painting.

"Little girl, can't you steal a teacher and learn art?" Gu Xingzhi suddenly put down the pen in his hand, turned around and said to Shen Yuan with a smile.

Shen Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile, "Junior Shen Yuan pays homage to Mr. Gu."

"I don't have so much politeness here." Gu Xingzhi poured himself a glass of sake, sat down and hammered his sore waist, and asked, "Why don't you go down and have fun with them, what do you come to me, an old man? "

"I want to discuss something with Mr. Gu." With bright eyes, Shen Yuan handed over the scroll in her arms, and said, "This is a painting I made. If Mr. Gu is satisfied, why don't you put me in the Ruyi Pavilion?"

Gu Xingzhi seemed a little surprised that there were quite a few female painters in the Ruyi Pavilion, but none as young as Shen Yuan.What kind of tricks can such a small doll draw?
"The Ruyi Hall is full of painters this year, come back next year." Gu Xingzhi found an excuse and refused.

"Mr. Gu, why not take a look at my scroll before making a decision."

Gu Xingzhi laughed that she was overthinking herself, so he took the scroll in her hand and unfolded it, the expression on his face changed slightly, the original contempt for Shen Yuan was replaced by faint admiration, and he asked, "You did this alone?"

Shen Yuan nodded and said, "Yes."

Gu Xingzhi put the scroll on the table and carefully observed the apricot blossoms painted on Shen Yuan's scroll. His skills from drawing lines to dyeing were enough to surpass more than half of the painters in the Ruyi Museum.

"How old are you?"

"fourteen."

The youngest painter in the Ruyi Pavilion is already, Shen Yuan is only 14 years old, and she has already shown her talent beyond ordinary people.

It is a piece of jade in the rough, but it still needs polishing.Gu Xingzhi thought to himself, this spring feast was not in vain.

Gu Xingzhi stroked his beard, and said: "Ruyi Hall has no shortage of painters, but there is still a lack of a handyman by my side. If you are willing, you can come to Ruyi Hall to find me tomorrow."

Shen Yuan nodded and replied, "Okay."

When Shen Yuan left the Luohua Pavilion, the flowing water below was still going on, Shen Yuan knelt down beside Wei Yan, and said, "Did you enjoy yourself?"

"It's better to go to the horse race with Zhao Xian and the others." Wei Yan said bluntly, most of these people flattered them in order to get an official position under Wei Zhuo.

"Then I will go to ask brother Zhao Xian on behalf of the son some other day."

Wei Yan didn't refuse either.

Another round of Qushui Liucup started. Wei Zhuo stood by the stream, holding a wine cup in his hand, and said, "I don't know which talented person will be able to taste wine and write poems in this round. This hall is looking forward to it."

Sitting down, the talented man is gearing up and eager to try.

Wei Zhuo handed the wine cup to the attendant, and the attendant took advantage of the opportunity to cover the wine cup with his wide sleeve.

Only Wei Zhuo saw the attendant changing the wine cups under his sleeve, "You..."

The attendant glanced at Wei Yan's position, released the wine cup, and the wine cup floated down from the upstream along the direction of the water flow.Shen Yuan was still peeling grapes for Wei Yan, when she suddenly saw the wine cup stop in front of her, Shen Yuan glanced at Wei Yan and said, "Whose is this?"

She and Wei Yan were sitting at the same table, and the wine cup stopped in front of them, so it was unclear whether it was her or Wei Yan.

"According to the regulations, Prince Qin's son should drink this glass of wine first, and then write a poem." The attendant couldn't wait to say, "Your Majesty, you don't want to spoil everyone's interest, do you?"

Wei Yan's face darkened, this dog slave has the guts to provoke him!
Suddenly, a tender white hand picked up the wine cup from in front of him, Shen Yuan drank the wine in one gulp, and said to Wei Zhuo: "Thank you, Your Highness, for giving me the wine. Since this wine cup is on the table with me and the prince, It's better to let me drink wine and let the prince write poetry."

The attendant glared at Shen Yuan, this time he replaced the fruit wine with spirits, only a few people in the palace knew that Wei Yan could not drink spirits.

The attendant wanted to drink this glass of spirits to make Wei Yan look ugly, but he didn't want to be cut off by this dead girl!
"Okay, since Second Miss Shen said so, then the Prince of Qin will recite another poem." The attendant gritted his teeth and said.
