After transmigrating into a cannon fodder, I married a villain

Yu Sheng was startled, "Can I enter the palace too?"

Yu Ce smiled and said, "You are the son of the Marquis of Pingyang and my brother Yu Ce. Isn't it easy to enter the palace?"

Yu Sheng was a little excited.In the original book, the first half of the plot basically took place in the Yu Mansion; after Yu Lu got married, the battlefield moved to the imperial palace.As a loyal reader, Yu Sheng is very clear about the monsters and ghosts in the palace.

In addition to the attacking prince Li Zhan, the dog-licking second prince Li Yang, and concubine Xiao Gui who is all for the throne, there are many supporting roles with different personalities.Among them, Yu Sheng was most impressed by Li Zhan's two fathers - Emperor Yuan and Empress Lin.

This is also hard to say for the empress CP.Emperor Yuan was a straight man who only loved girls. The two had no relationship at all, but they were bound together abruptly and gave birth to a son. It's no wonder they didn't BE in the end.

Seeing Yu Sheng lost his mind, Yu Ce waved his fan in front of him, "What are you thinking about?"

Yu Sheng looked at his own painting, not very confident: "Can I really do it? What if His Majesty thinks my painting is too ugly and convicts me?"

Yu Ce comforted him, "Your Majesty is magnanimous and will not get angry over such trivial matters. You just need to draw the truth."

Yu Sheng was considered a big hit in the circle before, with solid basic skills, and portrait painting is one of his strengths.It's just that today is different from the past. He has no modern painting tools and can only paint with soft brushes, which greatly limits his strength.

In order to perform better at that time, Yu Sheng has practiced a lot of surprises in the past few days. Yu Ce, Yu Lu, Yu Ge and Jiang Huamei have all become his models.It was the first time that Jiang Huamei discovered that her youngest son had such a talent. She happily looked at the finished portrait for a long time, and asked Yu Sheng to paint her waist finer.Yu Sheng rejected her sternly: "Mother, what I want in my paintings is realism. I have to draw what you are."

Jiang Huamei was upset, and complained all the time: "You little heartless, my waist used to be the thinnest among all the girls in the capital, and it didn't become so thick because of the three of you!"

Yu Sheng immediately gave in: "I'll change it, I'll change it now!"

On the day of entering the palace, Yu Sheng and Yu Ce left the palace together.Yu Ce was wearing an official uniform, showing the arrogance of a young talent; Yu Sheng also tidied up a little, and put on a new bluish-white dress, which made her fairer against her small face.

The two arrived at the entrance of the palace in a sedan chair, then got off the sedan chair and walked forward with the eunuch who came to greet them.

Yu Sheng followed Yu Ce, walking, looking around curiously.This palace is different from the grandeur in his impression.The main colors of the palace are dark red and gray, solemn and majestic, magnificent, very like a heavenly family.

The two followed the eunuch all the way to the harem, and the eunuch smiled and said: "Master Yu, please wait a moment, Mr. Yu, the emperor and the imperial concubine are enjoying the shade in the imperial garden, and the slave will go in to report."

Yu Ce nodded, "My father-in-law."

Yu Sheng asked strangely: "Brother, am I painting the imperial concubine first today?"

Yu Ce said leisurely: "Maybe, the imperial concubine is the imperial concubine after all."

Yu Sheng was a little disappointed. It seemed that today she would not see the legendary Queen Lin Lin.

After a while, the eunuch came back, "Master Yu, Young Master Yu, Your Majesty invites you in."

When the two came to a pavilion in the imperial garden, Yu Ce lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down and saluted: "I see your majesty, my concubine."

Yu Sheng did the same thing, and said crisply: "Join Your Majesty, my concubine." Although Yu Sheng entered the palace for the first time, he behaved generously and courteously, and did not lose the chain at all.

A deep voice sounded from the front: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yu Sheng stood up and carefully looked into the gazebo.

In the gazebo, sitting a man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his face is both upright and evil, he is wearing a black gold-rimmed uniform, and he has an aura of condescension to the world - this man must be the emperor.

It stands to reason that the emperor is almost 40 years old, but he doesn't look old at all, he is quite handsome, and he is simply the best match for a wealthy old man.

The glamorous lady sitting next to him should be Concubine Xiao, who is the favorite of the Sixth Palace.She looked Yu Sheng up and down, and said with a smile: "I just told the emperor just now that the young master of the Yu family must be no different. Your majesty, look how handsome this little young master Yu is."

The emperor glanced at Yu Sheng, and said with a smile, "What Aifei said is true. Your name is... Yu Sheng?"

Yu Sheng hurriedly said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"I heard from your elder brother that you are so good at painting that even he is not as good as him. Today, I want to see and see." After saying that, the two eunuchs moved a table with pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table. With complete. "Let's begin."

"Yes." Yu Sheng didn't move, but focused on observing Concubine Xiao, "Miss Concubine, can you turn sideways?"

"Yes." Concubine Xiao did as she said.Yu Sheng picked up the pen and drew on the paper for a while before making the first stroke.

The sun was scorching hot, and the place where Yu Sheng was standing happened to be under direct sunlight, and he soon began to sweat.Yu Ce deliberately stood in the direction of the sun to shade him, and the eunuch beside him wiped his sweat from time to time to prevent the sweat from dripping on the rice paper.

Looking at Yu Sheng's serious face, Yu Ce felt a little strange.His younger brother is usually careless, and occasionally he is stupid, and only when he is painting can he have such a serious side.Also holding a pen, Yu Sheng was like a salted fish when writing, but transformed into a vibrant koi when painting.

Concubine Xiao maintained the same posture, talking to the emperor from time to time.The emperor is holding a book and reading, drinking tea and eating a lychee occasionally, and there are maids shaking fans beside him.

In contrast, Yu Sheng looked a little embarrassed.He didn't care about his sweat-soaked underwear, nor his dry throat, he concentrated on describing Concubine Xiao's face, and occasionally glanced at the lychees on the table.

Alas, the evil feudal society.

After half an hour, the painting was less than half finished. At this moment, Yu Sheng was very hungry and thirsty, and was about to muster up the courage to ask the emperor for a glass of water, when a eunuch came to report: "The emperor, the imperial concubine, the empress and the eldest The prince is coming to the pavilion."

The pen in Yu Sheng's hand paused, and he subconsciously looked at Yu Ce.Yu Ce said softly, "It's none of your business, just concentrate on painting."

The emperor frowned slightly, "What is the empress doing here?"

Concubine Xiao Gui smiled faintly, "Maybe the emperor hasn't seen the queen for a long time, why don't you invite him to come and sit with us?"

Concubine Xiao's short sentence made Yu Sheng imagine a palace fight drama in his mind. He wanted to continue painting, but his gossip heart forbade him to do so.

The emperor thought for a moment, and was about to speak, when another eunuch came, and the eunuch looked a bit embarrassed, "Your majesty, the empress and the eldest prince came to take a walk in the imperial garden. When they heard that you were here, they turned around and went back." gone."

Yu Sheng: "..."

The emperor's face sank, "What does he mean?"

Concubine Xiao Gui softly persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, the empress probably avoids him because she doesn't want to disturb him."

"It's not just that he doesn't want to disturb you," the emperor sarcastically said, "I think he doesn't want to see me at all, so I'm not as good as he wants. Someone, please bring me the queen and the eldest prince."

Yu Sheng was a little puzzled at the side, the emperor's old son is so old, and his son is so old, but he still has such a naive side. It's no wonder that the empress CP in the original book never gives out sugar.

The queen and the eldest prince came upon summons.The eldest prince still had a cold and deep look, his facial features were almost carved out of the same mold as the emperor's, and Empress Lin——

Even Yu Sheng, who had seen many beauties, couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw Lin Hou for the first time.

Lin Hou is tall and tall, with beautiful facial features, a little red mark between his eyebrows, a head of slightly curly long hair hanging down on his chest, and a silver crown on his head. He looks only in his early thirties, and has an affectionate demeanor. He is an out-and-out cold beauty.It was really hard for Yu Sheng to imagine that he was the "biological" father of a grown man.

Yu Sheng put down his pen, and together with Yu Ce, bowed to the two of them.

Li Zhan seemed to be a little surprised that Yu Sheng would appear in the palace. Concubine Xiao explained patiently: "The Qixi Festival is approaching, and the emperor will send all the sisters a portrait as a Qixi Festival gift. Unfortunately, the painters of the Hanlin Academy of Painting are not strong enough to draw No painting that the emperor is satisfied with. Master Yu heard about this, and specially recommended the second son Yu to the emperor, saying that although the second son Yu is young, he is very talented in painting, so the emperor let the second son Yu enter the palace to try .”

Concubine Xiao Gui said a lot, but the focus began on the first two sentences.The emperor wants to give the "sisters" a Tanabata gift, but the queen is not a member of the "sisters".

"Really." Lin Hou said calmly, he glanced at Yu Sheng and Yu Ce under the sun, "I hope the second son Yu can draw a painting that satisfies the imperial concubine."

Yu Sheng, who has a Zhaidou intermediate certificate, made another wave of reading comprehension of Lin Hou's words.Empress Lin said "satisfy the imperial concubine" instead of "satisfy the emperor", which is interesting.

Concubine Xiao Gui could also hear the implication that Yu Sheng could hear. The smile on her face faded a little, and she said politely: "How is the queen's physique recently? The queen was ill a while ago, and the sisters were not allowed The concubine is very worried..."

"There is a difference between men and women. It is better for the imperial concubine to visit me less often."

The emperor sneered when he heard the words, "Are you considered a man?"

Li Zhan's eyes sank, "Royal father."

"Zhan'er." Empress Lin seemed to be accustomed to the emperor's humiliation, her expression was still indifferent, "If the emperor has nothing else to do, I will leave first."

The emperor looked at him for a long time, then suddenly smiled, "If I remember correctly, the Queen's craze is coming."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present changed slightly.Li Zhan's eyes were even more cold, while Lin Hou clenched his fists and closed his eyes forcefully.Yu Sheng didn't expect the emperor to bring up such a sexy matter in a grand manner. He really didn't show empress Lin any sympathy. He and Yu Ce looked at each other, and saw the same shock as himself in the other's eyes.

After a long time, Empress Lin opened her lips and said word by word: "I don't want the emperor to worry about this matter."

"Oh?" The emperor leaned close to Lin Hou's ear and whispered, "You said this yourself, the empress. When the time comes, don't come to beg me."

Li Zhan couldn't stand it anymore, so he changed the subject and said, "Father, Master Yu and Young Master Yu have been standing under the scorching sun for a long time, can you let them rest for a while?"

Even if he killed Yu Sheng, he would never have thought that Li Zhan still had such a considerate and careful side. No one else noticed that he and Yu Ce were about to suffer from heat stroke, but he noticed. His observation skills are really keen.

Concubine Xiao pretended to be annoyed and said: "Look, I almost forgot about this. What are you doing in a daze, quickly serve cold tea to the two gentlemen!"

Yu Sheng thanked her, but took a few sips from the teacup, and instantly felt that she had gained a new life. After drinking it, she still felt that it was not enough, so she looked at Concubine Xiao longingly.Concubine Xiao Gui smiled and said, "Young Master Xiao Yu is thirsty, so I won't give him another bowl."

After drinking the herbal tea, Yu Sheng was revived with full blood and continued to paint.Empress Lin and Li Zhan asked to leave, but the emperor didn't stop him anymore, he just said, "Zhan'er, when are you leaving?"

Li Zhan said: "Go back to my father, three days later."

The emperor nodded, "Go."

"Your servant will leave." When Li Zhan passed Yu Sheng and Yu Ce, he paused and said in a low voice, "I'm going to Xunyang, and the return date is uncertain."

Yu Sheng, who was suddenly accosted, was puzzled—why did the eldest prince tell him this?

Yu Ce nodded lightly, "Take care, Your Highness."

Oh, so I didn't talk to him.

It wasn't until the sun went down that Yu Sheng's painting was completed.The eunuch carried the table to the emperor and Concubine Xiao, who exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this, isn't this a concubine!"

Yu Sheng whispered in his heart, if you give him a pencil, he can draw the effect of a photo, these ancient people are rare and strange.

The emperor was equally amazed.Yu Sheng's paintings are completely different from those of other court painters.What he drew was a big head painting. Under his pen, Concubine Xiao's face appeared vividly on the paper, as if a person had entered the painting. Every detail was just right, even the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes were drawn out by him.Concubine Xiao Gui also muttered: "Does the concubine have so many wrinkles?"

The emperor looked at Yu Sheng a little more appreciatively, "The Marquis of Pingyang gave birth to two good sons, one good at writing and one good at painting—good, good painting!"

Yu Sheng and Yu Ce said respectfully: "The emperor has a great reputation."

"Yu Sheng, I will entrust you with this beautiful picture of the harem."

Yu Sheng was secretly happy, feeling that he had opened the door to a new world, "Yu Sheng will definitely live up to the emperor's high expectations."

The emperor was overjoyed, and rewarded Yu Sheng with a lot of things, including 1000 taels of silver, and Yu Sheng paid off the debt owed to Yu Ce in an instant.

On the way out of the palace, Yu Sheng was a little swaying when he walked - he was finally not a rice bug, he made his first pot of gold at such a young age!Who else?Who else!

Yu Ce was also happy for his younger brother, "Sheng'er, I don't think you can read well in this book, so don't waste your efforts. It's better to take the exam at the Hanlin Academy of Painting. Maybe the Academy of Painting is the most suitable place for you."

Yu Sheng was stunned by the huge surprise, and said incoherently: "Can I do it? Really? Dad, he has always wanted me to look like you, and I will be named on the gold list after taking the imperial examination - will he agree?"

Yu Ce thought for a while, and said: "The painters of the painting academy of my dynasty enjoy the civil service as 'Hanlin' and 'Shizhao', and can also receive the salary of the imperial court. The painting academy of the previous dynasty produced several masters, and now their authentic works Each pair is priceless, maybe you can be like them in the future? As for my father, I will talk to him. "

Yu Sheng threw himself at Yu Ce with an "Aww", his whole body hung on him, "Brother, you are really the best brother in the world!"
