Datang Almighty Dad

Chapter 232 Absconding With Money?
On the way out of the back house, Li Yuanying couldn't help laughing out listening to Fang Yiai's narration, the world is full of wonders.Then he thought about Chu Suiliang's bankruptcy in order to buy calligraphy and painting, so he asked Fang Yiai: "Yiai, how much money did you and Lao Tie cheat Chu Suiliang? He is an admonishing doctor, and he is very famous. Calligraphers and painters are worth a lot, right?"

"Ahem, no, not many masters..." Fang Yiai stammered, talking about him, as if he didn't dare to speak out.

It happened that the two had arrived at the front yard of the palace, Li Yuanying immediately put on a serious expression, absolutely different from just now.After the ceremony was over, Li Yuanying ordered Yu Shinan to be given a seat, and then they chatted about business.

Yu Shinan took out three notices, two of which were Li Yuanying's handwriting. When they saw the third one, Li Yuanying and Fang Yi'ai were stunned at the same time. What's going on?This Chu Suiliang is not taboo about meat and vegetables, but the third one was written by Fang Yiai, you steal all of these?
Yu Shinan said apologetically, "His Royal Highness, these are your three manuscripts, and now they are returned to their original owners! They are all foolish for a while, and the old man will only know today, and the disciples have no way to do it. It's a joke."

Li Yuanying motioned for Fang Yiai to take it, and then said in a neutral tone: "It's not worth mentioning a few pieces of paper and a few words, Secretary Yu's words are serious! No notice to me, the southeast of Xishi The alley is going to be blocked again, like this many times, the people of Chang’an City will complain and scold me, Yiai, you can post it later, remember, it’s the third one.”

Hearing this, Chu Suiliang blushed, and said anxiously: "His Royal Highness, it's all my fault. You are the only one in the world with your wonderful brushstrokes. If you insult your reputation for this, then you will die to blame..."

"Oh? Doctor Chu, why did you say that?" Li Yuanying asked puzzled.

At this time, the old minister Yu Shinan next to him said, "His Royal Highness, let me look at this old man and let him go this time. Originally, he didn't intend to return it, but when he saw the third notice from His Highness, he wrote it in a sloppy and unsightly manner. Instead, I immediately knew that it was a big mistake, because he loved calligraphy alone, but let the people comment that King Qin's calligraphy is difficult to be elegant..."

"Hey! Uncle Yu, no matter how ugly my nephew's handwriting is, I can always recognize it. How can it be unsightly?" Before Yu Shinan could finish speaking, Fang Yiai was unwilling to interrupt and yelled for herself. uneven.

"Ah? The last one wasn't written by His Royal Highness King Qin, but by you, Young General Fang?" Yu Shinan, master and apprentice, exclaimed in unison.

"That's right, if you don't change your name or your surname, how about I wrote it?" Fang Yiai raised her head confidently.

In less than three seconds, he was slapped by Li Yuanying, "What are you pretending to do? It's not embarrassing to have ugly handwriting, and you still have the face to shout so loudly? Go back and practice calligraphy."

Fang Yiai shrank her neck and fled in disgrace. Shi Xu Jingzong, the head of Qin Palace, laughed so hard that his stomach ached, and said to himself that this pair of master and apprentice is a pair of living treasures. More and more black belly.

Looking back, Li Yuanying joked with a smile: "I laughed, I was also afraid of being stolen. Later, Yiai said that if he wrote it instead, his handwriting could prevent theft. Unexpectedly, Dr. Chu did it..."

Chu Suiliang's old face was flushed, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to speak. At this time, the boy in his teens who had been silent behind him spoke up, "Dad didn't steal it, I took it on my own initiative to reveal the notice and stole it!"

Um?Everyone looked at this kid.Chu Suiliang quickly covered his son's mouth and apologized repeatedly.

Li Yuanying just laughed but didn't speak. Xu Jingzong looked at Yu Shinan and winked. The two of them are eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, so they are familiar with each other. Yu Shinan shook his head and sighed, and reprimanded Chu Suiliang: "That's enough." Your Highness has already forgiven you, so why bother to hide it, is this how you educate your son to be upright? Let Yanfu finish his sentence."

Chu Suiliang bowed his head and nodded in agreement, and let go of his son Chu Yanfu. The little guy was about fifteen years old, but he didn't have much timidity. He told the story in front of everyone. It turned out that he was also a member of the crowd, and he knew that his father loved the King of Qin. Calligraphy, on the spur of the moment, I secretly uncovered the notice and took it home.

At first, his father Chu Suiliang reprimanded him for saying it was wrong, but after seeing the notice, he couldn't put it down more and more, so he just reprimanded him a few words and didn't ask for it to be returned, so he indulged in the next two times before stealing.When he saw the third picture, Chu Suiliang felt remorseful, and found his mentor to help him plead guilty.

Yu Shinan helped make peace and said: "Your Highness, forgive me, for your handwriting, Sui Liang has already spent all his family property, if not for this, he would not have made such a foolish plan..."

"Is there such a thing? But, apart from these notices, it seems that this king has never had any handwriting leaked out. Could it be that Dr. Chu was tricked? Or is someone pretending to be this king and selling calligraphy and paintings outside?" Li Yuanying pretended not to know. .

What? ? ?Chu Suiliang's face turned pale, and he immediately collapsed on the ground. His son Chu Yanfu rushed to pull him, and Yu Shinan muttered, "This is weird. If it wasn't His Highness's handwriting, then whose calligraphy skills can be compared to your Highness's?" What? Although Suiliang's calligraphy is a bit weak, his eyesight is not bad."

"That's right! Your Highness Qin Wang, the calligraphy and paintings I bought are exactly the same as those on your notice. They are definitely made by one person. I can tell. Although the paper looks like it was made by ordinary calligraphy practice, the key to calligraphy is the essence of reading the characters." God, it doesn't matter where it is written." Chu Suiliang said firmly.

Chu Yanfu who was beside him also echoed: "That's right, I can testify that our family has spent all their savings of 2 taels of silver, and Daddy also said that it is worth the money..."

What?How many? 2 taels?

Li Yuanying stood up abruptly, and couldn't help cursing inwardly, Fang Er, this kid, is too dark, isn't it, some waste paper for calligraphy practice, you cheated him of 2 taels of silver?No wonder Yuwen Chengdu went to the Northwest to fight so actively this time, so he absconded with money!Looking down at the unkempt Chu Suiliang, he instantly felt that this guy was miserable!
"Your Highness, who is this?" Yu Shinan and the others stood up, and all looked at Qin Wang Li Yuanying who had reacted so violently.

After regaining her senses, Li Yuanying said to the long history Xu Jingzong: "Chang Shi, transfer 2 taels of silver from the treasury of King Qin's Palace to Dr. Chu."

"This... how is this possible? No, no, no!" Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang refused at the same time. How could His Royal Highness King Qin pay the bill for being fooled by spending money on calligraphy and painting?What happened when it got out?Did the master and apprentice come to Qin Wangfu to collect debts and beg for food?

Li Yuanying held down Yu Shinan, turned her head and took Chu Suiliang's hand and said, "Doctor Chu, listen to me, I have already guessed those calligraphy and paintings, and it must be Yi Ai who secretly sold the manuscripts that I usually practice calligraphy." , Hey! Unfortunately, the family has no way to teach the disciples. I laughed, Chang Shi, go and see if Yiai is still there? If he escapes, he must know that he has made a mistake.

Doctor Chu, how much money was spent by the King will be returned to you. Doctor Chu will send back those manuscripts. If you really like the words of the King, you can just come to the Palace to communicate. I will give you a handwritten copy later. You can no longer spend money on lessons. "

Paying for lessons?This...hahahaha, what a lesson to spend money on!Yu Shinan laughed out loud.

After a while, Xu Jingzong came back and reported that General Fang was not in the palace, and His Royal Highness the King of Qin knew things like a god.In fact, whether he really escaped or not, only the people in Prince Qin's Mansion knew that Xu Jingzong didn't go to find his wife at all, but to deal with money matters.

Although Li Yuanying spent a lot of money on this day, he managed to get the authentic paintings and calligraphy of Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang in exchange for an apology.

"My lord, the ladies have packed their luggage. Do you want to go to the West Market Tavern now? Would you like to go to the Tavern to make arrangements?" After seeing off the guests, Xu Jingzong asked about the business.

Li Yuanying chuckled and said, "No, the tavern doesn't accommodate outsiders, including maids and servants. All the maids and servants of the wives stay in the palace. You can take care of the affairs of the palace. Go to the tavern to attend a family banquet every three days and report by the way. Just get to work."

After arranging the affairs of the palace, Li Yuanying personally drove a large four-wheeled carriage and took the seven wives towards the West Market.Can the seven ladies really feel at ease as waiters in the tavern?Xu Jingzong expressed doubts!
