Chapter 92 It's Hard to Say It (41/302)
The spring is quiet.
In the small courtyard of Song family, Xu Danqing stood in the corner, looking at the woman in palace dress under the eaves, her face full of helplessness.
People in the Jianghu respectfully called Xu Danqing the "Painting Saint", and Xuanhe Bakui was his representative work.
Men are famous, but women are the same.
If you can surpass a generation with a beautiful appearance and keep your reputation as Xizi for a lifetime, I am afraid that few women can resist this temptation.
However, there are only eight people in Xuanhe Bakui, and there are countless women in the world, including those who are fascinated by the whole country, those with both talents, even those with transcendent status and martial arts.
Seeing Xu Danqing so unfair, there are always some beauties who feel dissatisfied. The base has expanded to the whole world, and it is easy to imagine how many people are in trouble.
Xu Danqing's original intention was to paint all the beauties in the world and be a wanderer in the world. But after painting the first beauties, his nature changed. There were so many beauties in the world, and those beauties with half-deficiency and high-skilled martial arts and scary backgrounds could not be said to be ugly. Xu Danqing could only send away the women who came to the door in the name of buying wine, and then escaped.
The woman who was fooled naturally would not bypass Xu Danqing, just like Zhongli Chuchu's master, who is still chasing Xu Danqing today.
Moreover, after discovering the role of Xu Danqing's pen, the prominent family members in the world inevitably had bad intentions and wanted to push the daughter of his clan into the position of beauty so that they could marry more chips in the future.
Under such circumstances, Xu Danqing, a wandering hero, can do whatever he can even be, even if he is skilled in martial arts, some people can't afford to offend him at all. He can finish his painting of Bakui and retire after he was drawn alive. To be honest, it's all a great luck.
For example, today I gave me a golden pen, allowing Xu Danqing to come out again to paint the beauty of Zhaohong.
To the emperor, it may be just an understatement, but to Xu Danqing, it is really deadly.
When he walked down Zhongnan Mountain, Xu Danqing knew that he might not have been able to finish this journey, but he never expected that he would be blocked before he left the house, and it was impossible to be good today.
Xu Danqing held a black oil-paper umbrella to protect her, looking at the four Xiao family guests in front of her, her expression was hard to describe.
The Empress Dowager is also Xuan and Bakui. Xu Danqing must have known each other and still remembers it freshly.
When he heard that there was a great beauty in Huainan, he rode his horse and ran over with a paintbrush, wanting to see if it could catch his eyes. He never thought that just after entering the Huainan territory, he had not yet found the gate of Xiao's family, and a black sack was buckled on his head, and then he went to the garden of the Xiao family.
At that time, a young girl with a spirit-faced face was standing in the garden with a round fan in her face, raising her hand and pinching the flower branches to look at her. A dozen or immortal giants stood around, and the Dayou girl said the order and said, "There are swords and corpses."
Xu Danqing described himself as a literati and also had a strong character. People who think that they cannot draw will definitely not draw.
At that time, the girl was indeed beautiful, but she was too young. The most important thing was that she was too rude. Beauty should be beautiful from the inside out, with all appearance, personality and temperament indispensable to be called a beauty that was beautiful. A willful woman obviously couldn't do it.
Xu Danqing said at that time: "Don't draw". The lively and cute little girl chattered and said good things for a long time. If she didn't agree, she would just raise her hand. More than a dozen people gathered around and beat her up.
The character of a literati is also limited.
Xu Danqing had no choice but to grit her teeth and draw a pair.
Now that he was blocked by the Queen Mother again, Xu Danqing knew that he could not escape today. After struggling for a long time, he raised his hand and bowed:
"The Empress Dowager should not make things difficult for the people. The emperor gave a golden pen to the people, hoping that the people would paint Zhaohong Bakui. Mrs. Lu..."
The Empress Dowager glared slightly and interrupted Xu Danqing's words: "What? Hongluan can't deserve the name of a beauty?"
Xu Danqing bowed and shook her head, and said seriously: "Of course not, I deserve it. Well... According to convention, Xuan and Bakui are both women who are not as good as the head of the palace..."
The Empress Dowager frowned gently: "Do you think Hongluan is old?"
After hearing this, Xu Danqing had not responded yet, Mrs. Lu was dissatisfied and quietly pinched the empress dowager's waist.
Xu Danqing smiled and shook her head and said, "It's a good thing that is not a complete reputation. If Cao Min painted Mrs. Lu today, the world would definitely think that Xiao and Lu families were suppressing others with their power, which would damage his reputation. Cao Min was considering Mrs. Lu, and it was definitely not that he didn't want to paint."
In fact, to put it bluntly, Xu Danqing was afraid that Mrs. Lu would paint all the women who were married or over the age of her hair came to Chang'an City. He was a gangster, let alone the empress dowager, and he might not be able to provoke any duke and marquis. This opening would definitely not be opened.
Mrs. Lu didn't want Zhaohong Bakui's reputation either. After all, she had married, and having a reputation would be harmful but not profitable. She just wanted to give a portrait to Xu Buling. She said softly:
"Mr. Xu, don't worry, just draw a portrait, it's not included in the Baku."
Xu Danqing doesn't believe in women at all. As long as he draws it today, there will be so many guards present, and the news will definitely spread, and tomorrow it will cause an uproar. What is "Xu Danqing's return to the mountain, Zhaohong's first beautiful surname, Lu Hongluan', etc., this is not something that people can control at all.
"Madam, there are rules in the world, so don't make things difficult for the people."
Mrs. Lu pursed her lips. Seeing Xu Danqing's stubborn mouth, she didn't draw her. She felt helpless and a little disappointed. She could only look at the shield she found.
The Queen Mother gloated in her heart, but couldn't show it on her face, and just snorted lightly:
"If you don't want toast, you will be punished for wine!"
After saying that, he raised his hand, and four vicious guards rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to beat Xu Danqing up.
Xu Danqing was beaten a lot back then, but when he fought back, he would cause big trouble. He could only act stubbornly, so that the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Lu could calm down.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu felt a little embarrassed after all, and raised her hand to stop her. Unexpectedly, a conversation suddenly came from outside the courtyard wall:
"Mr. Xu?"
The sound is like spring water in March, gentle and mature, with a little surprise.
Mrs. Lu and the Empress Dowager frowned gently at the same time, and turned their heads to look at the courtyard wall.
"Dao Bai...Master Ning, why are you here too?"
"Haha, I and Xu Danqing are old acquaintances. I just sat in Songmazi's place for a while. When I heard that Xu Danqing lives here, I came over to see... I brought so many people, but there were distinguished guests in the yard?"
"Yes, I'll take Master Ning in there, I should know everyone."
After hearing this conversation, Xu Danqing felt relieved and knew that she would not have to be beaten today. After all, women would never move in front of women with equal strength.
After hearing the "Master Ning" and "Xu Danqing's Old Acquaintance", the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Lu both understood who was coming.
The Queen Mother: The No. 1 Beauty in the World...
Mrs. Lu: I met Ling'er...
Humph ~
The two of them showed some hostility in their eyes...
