Black-bellied Prince: Princess Ding is 13 years old

Chapter 31
"Luohunduo has not had much movement recently. If there is any progress, we must tell the young master immediately, but, except for Li, we don't know how to find the young master."

"It's not convenient right now, just wait for me to contact you. Since Li is going to work, let him come to see me as soon as he finds out."

"This subordinate obeys orders." Before Wang Meng could speak again, Bai Yu had already disappeared into the hall.

Bai Yu was strolling leisurely on the street after leaving Tie Mu Tang, and suddenly thought of the man in white from last night in his mind, "I don't know who he is?" She was thinking to herself.Suddenly saw a few familiar shadows from the crowd.

The person on the far left is Prince Yongle, in the middle are Tuo Bo and the general, and the fourth prince Shan Jai Jing, and beside Shan Jai Jing is a beautiful woman - Situ Yu'er.

With such a group of people walking on the street, it is really difficult not to pay attention.Bai Yu suddenly thought that when she heard Ning's and Ning Xiang's secret conversation at the palace banquet that day, this Situ Yu'er must have come to set up Danjajing's words to inquire about Jade Lotus.Thinking of this, Bai Yu slowly approached the group of four.I didn't dare to disperse my body again, for fear that the situation in the bath that day would appear again.

It has to be said that as an agent, Bai Yu can still get close to the target he wants to approach even if he is not invisible.At this time, she was like a young man who was wandering around, but deliberately lowered her sense of existence. She was not far or close to those four people, but she could hear their conversation.

There was nothing Bai Yu cared about in their conversation. The prince and Tuo Bohe walked in front, and Situ Yuer and Shan Jaijing walked behind. Even so, Situ Yuer could be seen peeking at the prince in front from time to time. .

When they walked to a painting stall, the prince picked up a painting and admired it. The peddler who sold the painting saw that the visitor was dressed in either rich or expensive clothes, and immediately began to introduce him enthusiastically, "This young man has a good eye, and he has taken a fancy to our youngest at a glance. You don’t know what a good painting is, but this is the sealed work of Mo Dizi, the most famous painter in Shunchang’s early years!”

Shan Jai Jing and Situ Yu'er talked about Xian Li's anecdote, but ignored it.Tuo Bo and the general who were on the side also became interested when they heard that the painting was painted by a painter from their own country, "So, how did Mo Dizi's painting fall into your hands?"

"You don't know this old man. Mo Dizi's calligraphy is hard to find, but this is really his last work. When my grandfather was still alive, he had a relationship with Mo Dizi and saved him. He died, and Mo Dizi painted this (Autumn Leaves on Broken Mountain) to repay my grandfather for saving his life, which is exactly the place where he and my grandfather met."

Tuo Bo and the person who sold the paintings spoke so mysteriously, only thinking that he was cheating people to make money, and he was noncommittal.

The painting seller seemed to see the procrastination and disbelief, and said anxiously: "Master, I didn't lie to you, the painting made by Mo Dizi has a mystery hidden in it, just follow me to see." The man took the painting in the hands of the prince, as if he was determined to prove that his painting was authentic. He spread the painting on the table, picked up a brush from the table, and dipped some ink on the lower left corner of the painting.The ink slowly spreads across the paper until it disappears as if it had never been there.However, a red seal slowly appeared on the screen. Not only the present prince was attracted by the scene in front of him, but even Bai Yu, who was standing next to him, was shocked. He did not expect painters of this era to have such abilities.

The prince saw that the seal was printed with ink droplets, which had a sense of age, and there was a piece missing in the upper left corner of the seal, which was undoubtedly an authentic ink droplet.

"Well, I told you that this painting is authentic." The painting seller quickly praised his painting again.The seal appeared on the painting for a moment and then slowly disappeared.

The prince turned his head and said, "What do you think of General Tuobo?"

"This painting is indeed an authentic work of Mo Dizi, which is not unusual in Shunchang. People often use bamboo slips, sheepskin or cloth to make some treatments. Only by using special methods can the calligraphy and paintings on it be displayed. I once met There was an expert who could put the processed parchment on the fire without burning it, but mixed wine and vinegar and added human blood to smear it on it to see the words on it. Now there are many people who study These are used to preserve the scrolls and your own genealogy." Tobo agreed.

After listening to Tuo Bohe's words, the prince admired the wisdom of the people in Yongle, so he bought the pair of Modizi's (Autumn Leaves on Broken Mountain).

Bai Yu, who was not far away, seemed to have heard a very important clue. Thinking of the parchment in her hand, she felt that its secret was about to be revealed.According to Tuo Bohe, the parchment is from Shunchang, and the white jade flute is getting more and more complicated.

Thinking of this, Bai Yu didn't want to follow the four of them anymore. Anyway, Shan Jai Jing only knew how to joke with the beauty there, and didn't mention the jade lotus. She might as well go back and see if the parchment can unlock its secret.

Bai Yu went back to Xiangrouju and ordered Aunt Lian to bring vinegar and wine, then locked herself up.He took out the sheepskin roll from under the pillow, and took out a fire bag from his pocket, and put it on the side of the sheepskin roll. The sheepskin roll really didn't react at all under the fire.Bai Yu was overjoyed, and quickly cut open her hand with a knife, and dripped the blood into the small bowl of wine and vinegar.Dip it in the bowl with a brush, and spread it evenly on the sheepskin roll.The parchment was soaked.Slowly the wet spots dissipated, and a picture outlined with black lines appeared on the upper left corner of the parchment scroll. It was a picture of a house. There were two words written on the top of the picture, which Bai Yu didn't recognize.Other than that, nothing else showed up.

While Bai Yu was observing the painting carefully, she felt Li's breath appearing in the garden. Bai Yu put the sheepskin roll in her arms, walked to the window, and opened it.This is the secret code she and Li set.Sure enough, after a while, Li flashed into the house from the window, and the window closed again.

"See the young master, Wang Meng said that the young master came to Tiemutang today to look for his subordinates." Li got straight to the point as soon as he came in.

"How's the investigation going?" Bai Yu also directly asked the question she was most concerned about.

"My subordinates have found out that the Jade Lotus is the national treasure of the ancient town of Xianli. It originally belonged to Xianli's former emperor Dan Tuo, but after Shan Glycoin usurped the throne, it fell into his hands. Now this Jade Lotus has been passed on to the The single-jaw Jing, most likely the single glycoside wants to pass on the throne to him."

"Have you ever heard of the magic of this Jade Blood Jade Lotus?"

"My subordinates failed to find out in Yongle, and have already sent brothers from Tiemutang to Xianli to inquire. Within ten days, I will definitely give the young master an answer." Li promised.
