The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 209: The First Blossom of the Peach Blossom (2)
Even if Ming Mei is marrying, he is so much older than her, he is afraid of wronging her, let alone making her a concubine.Even if she wanted to, he couldn't wrong her like this.Back then, Master Ming Jing said that she had a rough marriage. Was that what he was talking about?He also said that he has the appearance of a marquis, so he can protect her in the future. Does it mean that she will come to him sooner or later?

Zheng Tieniu was stunned for a moment and said: "This girl is so jealous!" He thought she was gentle and virtuous!Zheng Tieniu thought to himself: So she is jealous, no wonder her husband's family doesn't want her!

At this moment, a soldier not far away saluted and said: "See you, my lord!"

Qian Rui and Zheng Tieniu turned around and saw Yang Yan striding towards them.

"See Your Majesty!"

Qian Rui and Zheng Tieniu rushed to greet Yang Yan.

With a faint smile on Yang Yan's face, he said gently: "Get up, there is no need to be polite." Seeing Qian Rui and Zheng Tieniu stood up, he continued to walk forward, signaling Qian Rui to follow.

The two walked on the city wall one after the other, looking from a distance, as if they were inspecting the city defense.

Yang Yan didn't look back, and said straight to the point: "I'm going back to Beijing next year, and most of the defense of Yanmen will be handed over to you. Would you like to stay at Yanmen?"

Qian Rui was startled, he never thought His Royal Highness King Ping would have the intention of letting him take over from him.You know, although he admires the third prince very much in his heart, he is a member of the Li family to the outside world, and the Li family supports the second prince.

"His Highness wants to recommend his subordinates to take over the defense of Yanmen?"

Yang Yandao: "No, if I recommend you, you won't be able to become the chief soldier of Yanmen. This matter needs to be done by Prime Minister Li. If you really take over the defense of Yanmen, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Beijing for a few years. What I mean is, while you still have time, you might as well go back to Beijing, first to see the parents, wife and children at home, and second, to walk around Li Xiang's place."

"The subordinates don't understand." Qian Rui said frankly.He and the third prince had no personal contact on weekdays, why did the third prince treat him so heartily?
Yang Yan looked at the southern sky and said frankly with a smile: "It's not for you, and it's not for the second brother, it's just for Yanmen, so that the people of the Sui Dynasty behind us can live and work in peace and contentment. Yanmen generals, only you are brave and strategic, and have a long-term vision , can take on this important task. I hope you will not disappoint the king, let alone the fathers and villagers in the pass. We are guarding the Yanmen Pass, but not only the Yanmen Pass. We are guarding the gate of our country and the stability of the people. It is the happiness of millions of people in the pass.”

Qian Rui only felt a huge shock in his heart. If the third prince has such a heart, if he can succeed to the throne in the future, he must be a generation of Mingjun, who will last forever.At this moment, he made up his mind to follow such a wise master for the rest of his life.

"I have Your Highness King Ping in the Sui Dynasty. It is a blessing for the court and even more so for the common people. Please rest assured, Your Highness, this subordinate will not let His Highness down! I implore His Highness for your permission, this subordinate wants to return to Beijing to visit relatives as soon as possible!"

"This king believes in you! Yes!"

Recently, there has been another beauty trend in the capital.

What beauty style?

It turned out that a young master named the third young master of the Gu family drew a set of four pictures of beauties, which were first exhibited at a literary meeting, which caused a sensation, and then auctioned in a painting and calligraphy studio seven days later, the four pictures actually sold for 500 yuan. The sky-high price of [-] taels.

The four beauties in the painting are all different in appearance and demeanor.

The one standing under a blooming magnolia in spring, wearing a green silk shirt, is catching a white rabbit under the magnolia tree with a smile, looking extremely innocent, fresh and bright.

In summer, she was wearing an ice-blue gauze, revealing a fragrant shoulder and a large snow-white chest. She was leaning on the railing of the lotus pavilion for a rest, holding a round fan in her hand, and painted three-petalled fiery pomegranate flowers on her forehead, looking carefree. Lazy and coquettish.

In autumn, the woman was wearing half-sleeves of autumn-colored chrysanthemums, holding a piece of letterhead in her hand, and was standing on a tall building looking into the distance. The background was an orange-red maple forest, and a row of wild geese in the sky formed a Chinese character, which made the woman look even more beautiful. Sentimental and pitiful.

Wearing a fiery red cloak in winter, she is riding a horse and galloping in the snow. The white horse under her body is extremely handsome, and beside her is a field of red plum blossoms in full bloom, which makes the woman in the painting more heroic and unparalleled.

These four beauties are not only beautiful, but also have unique clothes and jewelry. The flowers and birds in the background are even more lifelike, making people feel like they are in the scene.Once launched, it caused a sensation in the circle of bachelors in the capital.Not only the literati and bachelors who love to paint and know how to paint are full of praise and never tire of watching it, but even the dudes from aristocratic families are also in pursuit of it, and they are constantly looking for the source of beauties in brothel aristocratic families around the world.

Of course, the author of the painting, the third young master of the Gu family, is also the focus of exploration by the young masters of various families.It is a pity that, just like the real Yunmeng a few years ago, with the influence of many scholars in the capital, it is very puzzling that the origin of the third young master of the Gu family cannot be found out, which makes these four paintings even more mysterious and precious. It also keeps increasing the value of paintings.Of course, some people also judged from the flowers and plants in the background of the pictures of the beauties of the third young master of the Gu family that these four pictures of beauties were exactly the same as the flower and bird pictures of Master Yunmeng in terms of technique, and many people even suspected that the third young master of the Gu family was the real man Yunmeng.

But, didn't you say that Master Yunmeng was a reclusive Taoist priest?Can a Taoist priest draw such a beautiful picture?Judging from the picture of this beauty, the artist must be a famous young man who hangs around the court.But Gu's surname is not considered a high-ranking family in the capital. The young masters searched one by one, but they couldn't find anything.

The princes in the capital were very depressed.According to people's usual thinking, since the third young master of the Gu family has such abilities, there is no problem even if he enters the Royal Academy of Painting. Why is he so mysterious and unwilling to make friends with others?

What these four paintings bring to An Ran is a house with three entrances, more than ten servants, and the household for the next ten years.

Now that her brother and sister-in-law have consummated their marriage, An Ran handed over the rest of the money to her sister-in-law, while she paints her own pictures and writes her own characters with peace of mind, and doesn't care about anything else.

However, she wanted to relax, but Gu Wanniang refused to let her relax.

The reason why Gu Wanniang agreed to come to the capital at the beginning was not only because she wanted to have a grandson, but also because she came to find someone for An Ran.Now that An Ran is sixteen years old, how can she not be in a hurry?
