Chapter 143 Flying high and falling miserably

Zhang Yanling naturally came to replace the pillars and replaced Cheng Minzheng's "The Five Kings Drunk Returning" with him.

Xiao Jing also came with him.

After Cheng Minzheng left the study, Zhang Yanling took out a painting from the interlayer of the wooden box in his hand. It was the fake "Five Kings Drunk Returning" he forged.

To change the pillars, it is not possible to change the paintings directly. In order to prevent the paintings he borrowed from being transferred, each painting will have special marks in the mounting and painting scrolls. It is likely to be an inconspicuous little secret note that non-dealer cannot detect them. These secret notes will not be made on the paintings, but will be left in the paintings, mounting and other positions. This requires leaving the paintings and other objects when changing the paintings, and only taking away the original paintings.

Zhang Yanling is a master of fakes and is familiar with the skills. When Cheng Minzheng and Xiao Jing came back after meeting, Zhang Yanling had already put the removed original painting back into the wooden box, and the "Five Kings Drunken Return" on the table looked like there was no problem at all.

"What did Eunuch Xiao come to say to Mr. Cheng?"

Zhang Yanling asked as if he was fine.

When Cheng Minzheng met Xiao Jing, what he was most concerned about was his paintings. After seeing them back, he saw that there was no problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't think that Zhang Yanling could make any achievements in less than a stick of incense.

Of course, Cheng Minzheng could not say the purpose of Xiao Jing's coming. In fact, Xiao Jing's coming was to remind him of the promotion of the works of Yu Cixinxue. Cheng Minzheng felt that this was the emperor's destiny and could not tell outsiders casually, so he just casually said a few perfunctory words and did not explain it in detail to Zhang Yanling.

The two were still studying paintings later.

Cheng Minzheng's attention is still on "Fishing Snow in the Cold River".

Zhang Yanling made an excuse for something.

He then left the so-called "Fishing Snow in the Cold River" by Li Gonglin, and he left the Cheng Min government with a wooden box containing the painting.

...

...

Zhang Yanling walked out of the street.

Xiao Jing was still waiting anxiously.

"Brother Jianchang, you can figure it out, where are you going to make trouble?" Xiao Jing was a little confused.

This time, he was completely dispatched by Zhang Yanling in the government. His purpose of leaving the palace was to accompany Zhang Yanling to supervise the accounting of the Ministry of Works' major accounts.

Zhang Yanling smiled and took out the painting obtained from the interlayer of the wooden box. Xiao Jing said in surprise: "Is this?"

"This is Cheng Minzheng's Tibetan painting "The Five Kings Returning to Drunk". " Zhang Yanling said without avoiding it.

Xiao Jing's eyes were wide open. Although he didn't know much about painting, he also knew the name of "The Five Kings Drunk Returning". He said nervously: "You...what are you going to do? He didn't find it?"

Zhang Yanling smiled and said, "I used a fake painting to replace it for him. He probably couldn't find it for a while. What do Eunuch Xiao think of this painting?"

Xiao Jing was sad and thought that something good would happen with Zhang Yanling, but now he has become a thief who has been secretly painting with Zhang Yanling, and he thought it was a disaster.

"Brother Jianchang, if you want to take his painting, you can take it. There is no need to tell me after coming out, what is going to provoke you?" Xiao Jing couldn't figure out why Zhang Yanling wanted to pull himself into the water.

Zhang Yanling put away the painting and asked, "Eunuch Xiao, what did you tell him when you meet the Bachelor of Process?"

Xiao Jing said: "Of course, he reminded him to devote himself to studying the book you sent to Jianchang Bo. He should not be greedy for the literary name... huh?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Jing's head flashed.

Zhang Yanling smiled and said, "I like literary names, I personally like them. I can gain my reputation with other people's achievements. What is the difference between it and a thief who steals paintings?"

"Even so, what does it have to do with your painting?"

Zhang Yanling said: "I took a painting of him not to take it for myself, but just let him know in advance how he was stolen from fame and fortune. This is a reminder to be careful and not to blind his eyes for his appearance of fame and fortune. After Eunuch Xiao returns, he can tell His Majesty about this, but please don't talk to outsiders."

Xiao Jing suddenly realized.

Zhang Yanling didn't mind telling him about this, which was actually equivalent to saying that Zhang Yanling did not intend to take the painting for himself.

If Zhu Youxiang asked him what he was doing today, would he dare to hide this from the emperor?

"Brother Jianchang, you can take other people's paintings so openly. It's really a shame..." Xiao Jing didn't know how to describe it.

Zhang Yanling smiled and said, "What to do? Stealing is stealing. I'm stealing something from him first to prevent him from stealing my things. The lessons of the Kong family are still vivid in my mind. If he is really greedy for literary names and does not want to return the things that should belong to me, in addition to asking His Majesty to help me fight for it, I will also make him lose this painting, which is a lesson to give him in advance."

After Xiao Jing knew that Zhang Yanling had no evil intentions, he smiled relievedly and said, "Brother Jianchang, you are really unfathomable."

"Then Eunuch Xiao, let's enjoy this masterpiece together?"

"Honored."

...

...

Zhang Yanling and Xiao Jing were enjoying the paintings on the carriage, and went to the Ministry of Works together.

He said that he wanted to supervise the Ministry of Works to calculate the major accounts. In addition to seeing where the Ministry of Works has progressed, Zhang Yanling actually had another important thing, which was to compare the family accounts with the original accounts of the Ministry of Works.

When Xu Guan arrived, Zhang Yanling and Xiao Jing had been watching the original account book in the warehouse for more than an hour.

"Why don't you stop him?" Xu Guan was very annoyed.

As soon as I went out to do something, someone took advantage of the loophole.

At this moment, he heard Zhang Yanling laughing and talking: "Shilarious Minister Xu is getting angry? I am just ordered to come to supervise, check the original account, and do it on order. Is it okay?"

Zhang Yanling and Xiao Jing came out like this.

There were several officials from the Ministry of Works behind. The officials were staring at Zhang Yanling just now, and they didn't dare to slack off for a moment, for fear that Zhang Yanling would do something extraordinary.

Xu Guan walked over and said, "Didn't Jianchang Bo take all the copied account books back?"

"Yes, my family is still calculating. Several Jinshi of the State Administration said that it can be calculated in five days. The calculation time should be completed tomorrow. I am planning to report to His Majesty." Zhang Yanling said with a smile.

Xu Guan was laughing in his heart, it seemed that Zhang Yanling was deeply involved in the routine.

But I always feel that something is wrong. If Zhang Yanling really has such a stupid thing, he wouldn't have let Zhang Yanling escape from the previous few times.

"Eunuch Xiao, please report to Your Majesty. This means that I will go to Fengtian Palace when the court is in the process of court and report to Your Majesty the calculation results of the Ministry of Works' accounts." Zhang Yanling said to Xiao Jing beside him.

Xiao Jing was stunned when he heard this.

Good guy.

When you came to the Ministry of Works, you said you wanted to supervise, but you just flipped through the original account book of the Ministry of Works. It actually means that the result will be released tomorrow?

Xu Guandao: "Brother Jianchang, it is better to be cautious in doing things."

Zhang Yanling said in surprise: "Did I figure it out clearly? I have to wait until your Ministry of Works finishes it before reporting it? Of course, the faster the better. Eunuch Xiao, please go back and report it! Let's go!"

Zhang Yanling said goodbye and took Xiao Jing away.

...

...

Although Xu Guan thought Zhang Yanling's words were ridiculous, he hurried to find Liu Zhang and told him about the matter.

Liu Zhang's old face wrinkled and said, "Isn't this nonsense?"

Xu Guandao: "If he really reports to His Majesty tomorrow..."

"Yuan Yi, that ignorant foreign relative can do whatever he wants, can you follow him? His move is nothing more than to disgust my Ministry of Works. It depends on how he talks nonsense in the court tomorrow!" Liu Zhang looked like he wanted to read Zhang Yanling's joke.

Xu Guan hesitated and said, "So should I call Zhang Shaoling and the others here to ask carefully?"

Liu Zhang said casually: "If you want to ask, don't just fall into his trap. It's best not to care about it and let him talk to himself in the court tomorrow!"
