Sui Jiu Dan blue half-pin

this day.

The envoys sent by Ying Kingdom to promote exchanges and trade have arrived in Jincheng.

The lobby of the Ministry of Rites set up a case to hold a tribute ceremony. Yu Renjun decided to break the old system and hold a reception banquet for the envoys to show friendship.

Not only was the palace very busy, but even the Academy of Painting was extremely busy preparing gifts for the envoys to bring back to the country.

Mid-autumn day.

The wind is sunny, the flowers are blooming like brocades, and even the air is full of sweetness.

The banquet started at Shenshi, and the square in front of Renxuan Hall was filled with seats.There were hundreds of envoys who came to visit this time, including the entourage, plus the inner courtyard of the palace and the princes and ministers attended the banquet together, so the scene was very spectacular and lively.

During the banquet, there were busy figures of court ladies and eunuchs replenishing melons, fruits, drinks and delicacies for everyone.

The dancers sang and danced on the stage, and the musicians of the Yuefu also played lively repertoires from time to time, pushing the atmosphere of the whole banquet to the climax like a wave.

At night, the full moon shines brightly.

The maids and eunuchs holding the lanterns hung huge lanterns all over the corridor, and pushed out the exquisitely shaped standing lamps to stand beside the seats, illuminating the whole square as if it were daytime.

After the fine wine and rare delicacies were eaten, the envoys were very happy, and they also sang and danced. The officials and Yu Renjun who greeted them all showed joyful smiles.

Han Xizi and the elders led the painters from the Academy of Painting to paint not far from the banquet.

Yu Renjun wanted them to include tonight's grand event in the painting and leave a copy for Yingguo as a souvenir, so the task of the painting academy was extremely heavy.

Suddenly, there was quite a commotion at the banquet.

Su Shiqing quickly stopped writing and stopped to watch.

I saw a group of beautifully dressed dancers walking on the stage, all of them are the kind of beauties who can't be forgotten after just one glance.

The prettiest one on the stage was wearing an auspicious gown embroidered with gold peonies on a red background. She was gorgeous, elegant, extravagant, and her bright and charming red lips were slightly raised, revealing a seductive smile.

This beauty is none other than Princess He Zhengchang.

In order to welcome the arrival of the envoy, she personally performed a dance on the stage.

The lingering jade hands and wide-sleeve dancing set off her extraordinary demeanor and beautiful appearance. Everyone was so fascinated by it that they forgot to breathe.

The audience applauded everywhere, and the sound of surprise and praise was endless.

Almost all the men were staring intently at the eldest princess on the stage, except Jie Ao who was drinking alone.

His expression was indifferent, and his eyes were always looking at Su Shiqing.

Although the princess has amazing beauty, in his eyes, no woman can compare to Su Shiqing.

He had politely declined Yu Renjun's offer of marriage more than once, but the eldest princess still fell in love with him, which made him very distressed.

On the other side, on the painting field.

All the painters were concentrating on painting when a young civil servant among the envoys came towards them.

This person has a unique temperament, and his exotic appearance is very outstanding.

A pair of ice-cold Danfeng eyes with drooping and long eyelashes, and rare black and thick eyebrows, exuding an inherent cold and noble aura from all over the body.

Moreover, his official position seems to be not small, even the envoys of Ying Kingdom have to observe his expressions and actions.

I saw that person walking in front of the crowd, bowing to them gracefully, his voice was full of a strong foreign accent.

"My Gu Chuanfeng, I have long admired the name of the Academy of Painting and you gentlemen."

Han Xizi put down his pen, clasped his hands in return and said, "So it's Mr. Gu, sorry for your disrespect."

"Your Excellency is welcome."

After hearing Gu Chuanfeng's name, a group of painters behind him widened their eyes and muttered softly, discussing his deeds and paintings.

Gu Chuanfeng is probably the one who can spread his name out of his country.

His paintings are not only rich in subject matter, flashy in color, bold and passionate, but also rich in decorative meaning in composition, with clear and stretched lines and rigorous structure.

The characters in his paintings range from princes and nobles to ordinary people. Most of the characters in his paintings are dreamy and languid with rich expressions.

Moreover, his original prints not only fascinated painters and businessmen, but also deeply loved by ordinary people.

Gu Chuanfeng looked at the paintings on everyone's table and asked, "Can I stand by and admire the paintings of your seniors?"

Han Xizi nodded and said, "Mr. Gu, please go ahead."

Then, like a screen, Gu Chuanfeng stood motionless behind Han Xizi and the other elders, quietly stopping to admire.

When I see the place of empathy, I will unconsciously draw twice in the void with my finger.

Su Shiqing observed Gu Chuanfeng curiously, not because of his beautiful appearance, but because of his amazingly talented paintings.

After all, no painter's paintings can be loved by everyone like his.

When he was a "skilled hand", he was fortunate enough to see two engravings of Gu Chuanfeng copied by others collected by a wealthy businessman.

One is "Xinjianwenzhi", which depicts rare and rare animals, and the other is the equally gorgeous "Picture of Heroes", which depicts warriors fighting scenes. Although it is just a painting copied by others, it is still amazing enough.

Thinking of this, he subconsciously described the dancing posture of the princess in the picture he drew with a painting style and technique similar to that of Gu Chuanfeng, but after reading it, he felt dissatisfied.

All the process of his attempt fell into Gu Chuanfeng's eyes.

"The painting is really good, have you seen my painting?"

"what!"

Su Shiqing exclaimed, Gu Chuanfeng stood behind him at some point.

So he quickly explained: "I'm fortunate to have seen someone else copy Mr.'s two prints, so..."

Gu Chuanfeng's drooping and slender eyelashes moved slightly, and a smile filled his cold face.

"I see. I don't intend to offend you. I really can't help it. Please continue to paint."

Su Shiqing nodded to him, and then continued to paint.

But Gu Chuanfeng still stood behind him, not intending to leave.

Even though I told myself not to pay too much attention, I still felt the subtle gaze, so Su Shiqing was very uncomfortable in painting.

After finishing a painting.

Gu Chuanfeng said sincerely: "I don't know if you are free tomorrow, so I can chat with you about painting?"

Su Shiqing was flattered and said: "Mr. Gu, do you want to invite me to talk about painting together?"

Gu Chuanfeng nodded slightly.

……

Not far away, Jie Ao watched Su Shiqing chatting with Gu Chuanfeng, his eyes gradually became deep, his brows frowned, and he felt inexplicably annoyed.

Seeing his expression, the eunuch who was pouring wine at the side mistook him for something he hadn't done well, and was trembling, not even daring to vent his breath.

Suddenly, Jie Ao forcefully put down his wine glass: "It turns out...!"

The eunuch suddenly broke out in cold sweat and his hands were shaking.

"General, don't you like this wine...?"

Jie Ao didn't hear the eunuch's voice at all, all his attention was focused on Su Shiqing and Gu Chuanfeng, the wine glass was almost crushed by him.

The eunuch shrunk his entire shoulders into a turtle.

"What kind of wine does the general want to drink? This servant will get it for you..."

Before he finished speaking, Jie Ao suddenly stood up from his seat, and the wine glass fell to the ground.

The eunuch hurriedly knelt down, showing a terrified expression.

"General calm down! Calm down!"

Unexpectedly, Jie Ao walked past him directly, completely ignoring him.

"kindness??!"

The eunuch raised his head in bewilderment, only to find that Jie Ao had gone far away.

At this time, the bell rang for the end of the banquet.

The envoy and the officials who greeted the envoy were all drunk, talking and laughing loudly in twos and threes and walking towards the outside of the palace.

After Yu Renjun finished ordering all the matters, he also returned to the bedroom hand in hand with the queen.

Su Shiqing packed up the sketches and painting utensils, and then walked towards the palace gate behind the team of painters.

He turned his arms wearily, and looked at Jie Ao's seat, but found that he was not there, and he was nowhere to be seen in the crowd.

Could it be that he has gone back?

While guessing, a deep voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Who are you looking for?"

Su Shiqing was taken aback, blurted out and hurriedly changed her address: "Jie!...General, why are you here?"

When did it appear behind him?Why does everyone like standing behind him to be scary?

Jie Ao's face was gloomy.

"I've been standing by your side for a long time, haven't you noticed?"

As soon as Gu Chuanfeng left, he followed behind, and then stood not far away watching Su Shiqing paint.

"is it?"

Why does it feel that Jieao is not quite right?It looked like he was going to punch him.

"Come here soon."

"But, I haven't told Mr. Daizhao yet."

"I'll send someone to tell."

"Oh……"

Su Shiqing ran to his side, wanting to walk side by side with him, but Jie Ao strode forward without any intention of waiting for him.

He looked at Jie Ao's back with embarrassment, and then hurriedly chased after him.

At this time, a call came from behind.

"Please wait!"

Su Shiqing turned her head and saw that it was Gu Chuanfeng.

"Mr. Gu? What's the matter?"

Gu Chuanfeng clasped his hands and said: "I was just confused for a while, and I haven't asked your name yet?"

Su Shiqing suddenly realized and said: "I am Gu Meisheng."

"Okay, then tomorrow..."

"Gu Meisheng!"

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a loud roar from around the corner.

Su Shiqing and Gu Chuanfeng turned their heads at the same time, and the lights outlined Jieao's domineering figure, walking towards them like a falcon looking down on the mountains.

"what happened?"

Jie Ao's heroic eyebrows were always furrowed, never letting go.

Su Shiqing hurriedly introduced Jie Ao to Gu Chuanfeng.

"Mr. Gu, this is General Jie, the protector general of our Daren Kingdom."

Then introduce to Jie Ao.

"General Jie, this is the envoy of Ying Kingdom, that is, the famous painter Mr. Gu."

Gu Chuanfeng bowed indifferently but politely: "I, Gu Chuanfeng, have met General Jie."

Jie Ao's words were full of the host's kindness, but without any warmth.

"Mr. Gu is very polite, the banquet is over, let's go back to the embassy to rest earlier, do you need me to send someone to escort Mr. Gu back?"

"Thank you General for your kindness, I don't need it."

Faced with Jie Ao's hostility, Gu Chuanfeng was a little confused.

Su Shiqing: "..."

The white moonlight fell on the heads of the three people, and the atmosphere became slightly tense.

Finally, Gu Chuanfeng cupped his hands towards the two of them.

"It's getting late, I will take my leave first."

Jie Ao: "Farewell."

Su Shiqing: "Mr. Gu, walk slowly."

After Gu Chuanfeng walked away, Su Shiqing pulled Jie Ao to a corner where no one was around, and then looked at him with strange eyes.

"Why are you so indifferent to Mr. Gu? He is an envoy who came to communicate, shouldn't you be a little gentler towards him?"

Jieao raised his eyebrows: "Cold? Gentle?"

"Yes, what if Mr. Gu thinks that we are not hospitable at all, and we can't agree on business?"

"Of the ten visiting envoys, eighty-nine are meticulous work. Because of this, I, as the general who protects the country, cannot appear hospitable. Some things are not as simple as you imagined, you know?"

"Is that so?" Su Shiqing was surprised, "I thought...forget it, it's okay."

Jie Ao approached: "Why?"

Su Shiqing hammered him: "I thought you were jealous."

"Jealous... Really!"

Jie Ao didn't hide his heart at all, but showed a smirk, suddenly grabbed his wrist and walked towards the palace gate.

Su Shiqing was afraid of being seen by the maids or eunuchs, so she looked around.

"What are you doing?"

"Can't you just let me take you back quietly?"

Su Shiqing's cheeks were flushed, and she asked knowingly, "Where are you going back?"

"Of course it's... the general's bed!"

Even though her voice was very low, Su Shiqing was so frightened that she ran in front of him and covered his mouth.

"Do you know it's dangerous to say that? What if someone overhears you?"

"I'm not afraid."

Instead, Jie Ao took his hand and blatantly kissed the back of it, then walked away.

Su Shiqing had no choice but to follow.

But this scene, just like what Su Shiqing was worried about, was seen by a passing court lady.

The palace maid was so frightened that she quickly hid and watched their every move secretly.
