Chapter 51 The Pan family has a daughter who has grown up
Liu Youfang’s mansion and Wuhua Pavilion.
With a "bang", a white jade-colored Ru kiln porcelain plate smashed into pieces. The crisp sound broke the tranquility in the pavilion, and porcelain chips splashed around the floor.
Liu Youfang Guang was sitting on the couch with white hair, his long and narrow eyes flashed with anger, and he faintly showed a bit of murderous aura. Seeing his angry face, Chen Youwen next to him kept silent and silent.
Liu Ai, the entourage officer of the Hanlin Picture Academy, hurried in from outside the door, bowed to his adoptive father, and said, "Dad to calm down, Wu Haogu is just a child with yellow mouth. If you don't know how to be polite, you will suffer disaster sooner or later."
"How can our family fight against children? We are angry that someone has been lying on Panlou Street for many years, but I didn't know that such a genius was born!" Liu Youfang said sternly: "Chen Jiangshi!"
Chen Youwen shook and bowed and said, "Here."
"The "Chingyuan Immortal Battle Picture" will not be retreated. I will go to the Wu family early tomorrow morning to retrieve it, and then return the seven papers of calligraphy and paintings I swallowed last time to the Wu family!"
Chen Youwen paused and replied: "Yes."
Liu Ai sighed slightly, squatted down and carefully picked up all the fragments on the floor. While picking them up, he said, "Dad, a servant came to report that Gao Qiu from Wang Fuma's family stayed in Pan's home until dusk before leaving. The Wu family's Dalang had not left yet, it seemed that he had stayed in Pan's home."
Liu Youfang Yu was not angry and only snorted.
"Dad, what are the true meanings of Prince Wang and Pan Bingyi? Are you really going to go against us for a child who is a yellow-mouthed person?"
Liu Youfang Heng glanced at him and said angrily: "He is a child with a yellow mouth? Do you think I am a good person? Did you say that the court official who has been famous in Donghuamen?
You are very old and have been in the palace for more than 20 years, why don’t you know that the most important thing in being an internal official is to please the master?
Anything that can be done to the Lord is big! Anything that the Lord does not need is small!
Wu Dalang's realm painting platform is actually nothing, it is optional. However, his portrait photo is a great skill! If he is presented by the prince-consort, in the future, the prince will choose a concubine, princess, and the county will recruit a princess, so he will have to draw it first... This is very popular!
Compared to him, how can you and I behave? Your Hanlin Picture Academy will sooner or later be his possession!"
After listening to his adoptive father's analysis, Liu Ai's face turned pale. He didn't think so much before, but he thought that although Wu Haogu was capable, he was just a painter. Such a person was the most skilled person.
But Liu Youfang thought it through carefully (what he thought of, Wu Haogu, Pan Daguanren and Wang Shi had not thought of it, but it would definitely happen). As soon as he saw Wu Haogu's "Photo of Pan Qiaolian", he knew that this ability would definitely be used in the future to select concubines and recruit princesses.
To put it bluntly, the future queen, empress dowager, and prince-consort will have to let Wu Haogu write the truth first. Isn’t Wu Haogu so popular now?
By then, the relatives and nobles in Kaifeng Mansion would have to flatter and become old, otherwise his writing would be a skewer, the queen and the queen mother would be someone else’s daughter!
Compared with him, Liu Ai, a small worship official, is nothing... If Wu Haogu wants to be in charge of the Hanlin Academy of Painting, it will be a matter of one sentence.
Besides, Wu Haogu was originally from Kaifeng Prefecture’s calligraphy and painting career, so why can’t he manage the Hanlin Academy?
Liu Ai put the pieces of porcelain, "Dad, clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old. No matter how high the painting skills of Wu Haoqiu's ancients are, they cannot compare to your old man who has served the Queen Mother for many years. You have a way to deal with him, right?"
Liu Youfang's anger seemed to dissipate for a moment. He left the couch and walked to the window, "I am old and loyal to the Queen Mother, and have a good relationship with King Duan, so I will never have to worry about this life."
He pushed open the window and looked away with his hands. Only dim lights came out of Yanfu Palace in the distance, which formed a sharp contrast with the brightly lit Kaifeng market.
Liu Youfang sighed: "It's your hard work, but you may not be able to do anything about calligraphy and painting... If we, the inner minister, cannot use our talents to please the officials, the empress dowager, will have to work hard to do things for the officials on the frontier.
Let’s look for an opportunity for my father and let you go to Hengshan (played by Zhuma Chengshou). Teacher Sheng, you can go together. Make clothes first, and then serve as an opportunity for my son.”
Go to the Western Army? Isn’t this a life-threatening person?
Chen Youwen almost fainted. It would be fine if the attendant disappeared, but he even had to send clothes to the Western Army... Now the Western thief Empress Dowager Xiao Liang is a big army and will fight to the near future.
At this time, when going to the Western Army, Liu Ai had to take the opportunity. Isn’t this going to die? Even if he was not killed by the Western thieves, he would have to sacrifice half of his life even if he worked hard all the way...
Moreover, after the Western Army survived, I will definitely not be able to do it anymore. Could it be that the empty official who was the general of the army was eating rice at home?
Now the calligraphy and painting business on Panlou Street is filial to him, because he is a celebrity of the Liu family father and son.
Once the service is gone, who will be the short general? How can you live your life in the future?
Moreover, he has been domineering in Kaifeng Prefecture's calligraphy and painting business over the years, and has offended many people. Once he loses power, can his life be better?
With a lot of thought, Chen Youwen left Wuhua Pavilion accompanied by Liu Ai and walked to the gate of Liu Youfang's mansion in the light rain.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Chen Youwen suddenly lowered his voice and said to Liu Ai: "Publication, that Wu Dalang is so hateful. Why don't you let me go and find someone to be him..."
However, Liu Ai seemed to have not heard Chen Youwen's words, and just bowed and said, "Brother Shi Sheng, don't forget to go with me to the Wu family to return the calligraphy and paintings to get the return receipt."
After saying that, he turned back to Wuhua Pavilion.
At this time, in Wuhua Pavilion, Liu Youfang looked a little angry. He was holding a copy of Wu Hao's ancient copy of "Drunk Arhat" and was enjoying it carefully.
"Father," Liu Ai stepped forward and whispered, "Is it really that way that the Wu family?"
"Can you do this happen if you don't let it go?" Liu Youfang said, "Who told me that they have real skills? Before, others didn't know about Wu Haogu's ability, and his family didn't have half an official position. No matter how they do it, it's all about calligraphy and painting, and others just watch a play.
Now it’s different. If we want to make things difficult for his family, someone will come out to protect him. If it’s just a relative, it’s a fear of provoking those heroes who call the name outside Donghua Gate.
By the way, after returning from the Wu family tomorrow, I will take the copy of Su Dongpo’s copybook "The Drunken Old Man's Pavilion" from my family to Xiaomi official and ask him to change a copy of "Pan Qiaolian's Picture".
Wu Haoqiu, Mi Youren and Chen Bao painted three "Photographs of Pan Qiaolian" and were sent to the Pan family according to the rules.
However, they can still leave the painting for a few days to modify and frame it, but with Mi Youren's nature, they must leave a copy.
When Liu Youfang left Panjiayuan today, he proposed to exchange a copy of Su Dongpo's real-life copybook for a copy of "Photo of Pan Qiaolian".
"For "The Drunken Old Man's Pavilion" to exchange for "Pan Qiaolian Picture"?" Liu Ai was stunned for a moment. The value gap between these two things is too big.
Copybooks have always been more valuable than calligraphy and painting, and Su Dongpo is a master of the world, and Mi Youren is just a new star in the future, and the value of the two is incomparable.
Liu Youfang glanced at his adopted son and smiled faintly, "No matter how good the Drunken Old Man's Pavilion is, how can he compare to Pan Qiaolian?"
"Pan Qiaolian?" Liu Ai was stunned and stunned again
Liu Youfang smiled and said, "The Pan family has a daughter who has grown up for the first time and is not known to people in the deep boudoir. She is born with beauty and is hard to give up on herself. Once she chooses to be on the side of the king. She smiles and looks charming, and the pink and beautiful palaces of the six palaces are not colored!"
"Father wants to..."
Liu Youfang laughed and said, "This is also a blessing for the Pan family...isn't it?"
"Yes, yes... It's really a bargaining thing now, Pan Xiaoyan and Pan Xiao'an are two brothers."
"It's all my own people, and it's not cheap? After I get the painting back, I'll prepare to go to the Northwest Army." Liu Youfang's tone was already sluggish, "Your five years of hard work (the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty had to be promoted to a higher level, and they had to work on the border for five years before they were fifty years old) and we'll finish it this time."
