Chapter 191
Had breakfast.

Lu Qi had nothing to do, so he decided to go out to buy some painting tools to kill time.

As for Lacus and Kashina, they still have to go to their respective colleges to make final preparations for the holiday.

Quinn went to the pro-barracks.

Fiona didn't plan to follow after she learned that Lu Qi was just going out to buy things, and planned to continue practicing swords while she was in good condition after dinner.

As for Bobby, she was lying in the living room in a blissful daze after having a full meal.

"Let's go." Lu Qi sat on the carriage and said to Yurna outside the carriage.

"Yes."

After a reply, the carriage drove slowly.

The goal this time is also very clear, go straight to Durang Street.

It is a well-known art center in the capital, where many craftsmen, sculptors, painters, musicians, etc. are concentrated.

After passing through the noisy streets of the morning, the carriage stopped after about an hour.

"Your Highness, here we are."

From outside the carriage, Urna's voice came.

Closing his eyes and resting his mind, Lu Qi heard the words and opened his eyes, yawned a little, then got up and got out of the carriage.

The street is full of people, it is very lively, and it looks very spacious. There are various storefronts on both sides of the road.

You can also see some sculptures and paintings placed on the side of the road for people to watch.

From time to time, some musicians can be heard playing their own repertoire, and a variety of music sounds, but there is a sense of harmony that does not disturb each other.

Although he has studied music with Sona for a while, Lu Qi still doesn't have a deep understanding of music.

But he can understand the sculptures and paintings on both sides of the street now.

While walking on the street and looking around, I found a few good exhibits.

After walking for a while, Lu Qi saw a group of people gathered together, quite lively, and suddenly became a little interested.

So he also stepped forward.

There are many people here, but the place is big enough, so it is not crowded.

In addition, many people noticed Lu Qi and gave way to him.

The appearance of His Royal Highness did attract a lot of attention, but at this time more people's eyes were still focused on the front.

When Lu Qi approached, he found that it was a painting exhibition.

Many excellent paintings are concentrated here for people to watch.

Which picture has more people in front of it means which picture is better.

Lu Qi came to the painting with the most people and put his eyes on it. He could tell at a glance that the quality of this painting was indeed higher than other paintings of the same period.

What is in front of me is a painting of sunflowers. The weather can tell that it is when summer is approaching autumn, when sunflowers are about to mature.

Sunshine, fields, woods and blue sky can catch people's attention at first sight.

"This painting is really good."

"It gives a very comfortable feeling."

"I don't know which painter it is from."

"Is the painter present? I intend to buy it privately."

People's evaluation of this painting is also full of praise, and some people even want to pay for it directly.

"Your Highness, what do you think of this painting?"

Lu Qi was watching, when a clear female voice suddenly came from beside him.

Hearing the sound, he turned his head and looked over, and saw a young woman standing not far away in front of him, with a beautiful face, a slender figure, long brown hair falling down her shoulders, and a white skirt, she looked very elegant. There is still a bit of extravagance.

At first glance, it is the kind of noble temperament cultivated in a big family.

At this moment, her blue eyes were looking at Lu Qi, and there was a hint of surprise in them.

Although I've seen it from a distance just now, but if you look at it up close, this His Royal Highness is indeed as handsome as the rumors say.

Very rare.

And his eyes are extremely clear, like two gems.

This made her feel like appreciating a work of art when she looked at it.

Lu Qi withdrew his gaze from the woman, and looked at the Sunflower painting again: "I think this painting is indeed pretty good."

A smile appeared on the woman's face, and she was about to thank His Highness for his compliment, when she heard that there was still a follow-up to his words.

"It's just that there are still a few fly in the ointment places."

Lu Qi continued.

The woman blinked her eyes and couldn't help asking curiously: "I don't know where it is?"

"In the first place, the primary and secondary are not enough."

Lu Qi didn't hide it, and pointed out casually: "At first glance, the sunflowers, blue sky, white clouds, woods, fields, everything is well drawn, but if you want to express everything, the protagonist will not be so conspicuous. , and this is the first shortcoming.”

The woman listened, showing a thoughtful expression, and asked again: "What about the second place?"

"The second point is that the light and shadow depiction is not deep enough, and the color contrast is not enough."

Hearing this, Lu Qi continued: "Such a painting is indeed pleasing to the eyes, but this is also the problem. The impact is not enough, and there is no such impressive impact at first sight. Maybe I will look at this painting now. The painting is not bad, but when I go back, I will forget everything about this painting within three days."

At this time, his evaluation also attracted the attention of many people around him.

Hearing what he said, they looked at the painting again and felt the same way.

The woman also took a look at the painting, took a closer look, and then looked at Lu Qi, with an expression of modesty asking for advice: "Where is the third place?"

"The third place is the problem of painting skills."

Lu Qi smiled: "There is nothing to say about this. It can be seen that the artist has a good standard, but the fire is still not in place. Obviously, this is a work she painted when she was growing up."

"Your Highness is right."

The woman's eyes were bright at this time, and she also admired a bit: "This is exactly the painting I made two years ago. .There are still too many shortcomings, if I paint the same painting now, maybe it will be different."

When the people around heard it, they immediately understood.

This woman is the painter of this painting, and she was a little surprised in her heart.

This woman looks like she is only 20 years old, and she was even younger two years ago. Can she draw such a level of painting at such a young age?

"I didn't expect you to be the owner of the painting, sorry."

Lu Qi couldn't help but look at the woman more.

A beautiful smile appeared on the woman's face: "It is my honor to receive the comment from His Royal Highness, may I delay your time for a while?"

Lu Qi thought for a while and said, "Yes."

As soon as the woman heard it, she immediately moved. She ran to her painting, and then moved it to Lu Qi together with the painting shelf.

Then he quickly fetched oil paintbrushes of various colors, and looked at Lu Qi expectantly: "Can I ask Your Royal Highness, please change this painting for me?"

Lu Qi paused, he didn't expect this woman to be so straightforward.

How can there be such a request to change the painting.

Moreover, this painting was made two years ago, so it's not easy to change it.

People who don't know think that this woman is deliberately embarrassing Lu Qi.

But Lu Qi didn't feel the woman's malice. From the twinkle in her eyes, it could be seen that she really wanted Lu Qi to help him refine it.

"it is good."

After thinking about it, Lu Qi didn't refuse.

It is still a little difficult to refine this painting, after all, this painting is already very brilliant.

But to Lu Qi now, it's just a trivial matter.

He has great self-confidence.

Picking up the paintbrush and dipping it in the paint, Lu Qi did not hesitate, and landed on the painting in front of him, breaking the tranquility of the painting immediately.

This time, the audience around felt a little distressed.

If the painting is not good, this stroke is enough to ruin the whole painting.

But the owner of the painting is very focused at the moment, watching Lu Qi's movements seriously with his eyes.

From Lu Qi's feeling when holding the pen, she could tell that the prince in front of her must have good painting skills.

And Lu Qi's movements are also very skillful, from the beginning of writing, there is no slightest hesitation.

As if in his mind, he has conceived countless times, the same painting.

All kinds of pigments, all kinds of colors, without any pause, give people a confident aesthetic feeling.

The onlookers were all engrossed, but no one made a sound.

And the woman's eyes couldn't help but shifted from the painting to Lu Qi's face for a few seconds. Staring at this handsome face, she felt the urge to make a portrait of him right here. .

Resisting this impulse, the woman turned her gaze back to the painting, her eyes shining brightly.

The painting in front of me has changed from just now.

She can naturally see that there is a gap in the changes.

In this way, more than half an hour passed.

There were a lot more people watching around, and they all looked at the repainting that was almost finished, and exclaimed.

After putting down the last stroke, Lu Qi stopped, and after looking at it, he also showed a somewhat satisfied expression.

"It suddenly felt different!
"Yeah, if it just brought me a very comfortable feeling before, then it brings me the feeling now, as if I went to the scene."

"This is called immersive!"

"With such a change, the value of this painting has more than doubled."

"Seeing it makes me want to eat melon seeds."

"Just buy ten catties!"

Surroundings, a sound of amazing evaluation came out.

The painting refined by Lu Qi can still see the shadow of the previous painting, but it gives people a completely different feeling.

If we say that before, it was just to make people feel comfortable and have a sense of beauty.

So at this moment, this painting of sunflowers brings people the feeling that summer is passing and autumn is coming, which makes people feel immersive and touched.

The woman was fascinated, and when she heard the comments from the people around her, she came back to her senses, and said in unabashed amazement in her eyes: "This change is also great!"

She even had the urge to rush forward to hold the painting and watch it carefully.

At this moment, she realized that in front of Lu Qi, even if she is now, she is at most a newbie who just came out of the oven.

She originally thought that if she painted the same picture of herself now, it would definitely be better than the previous one.

However, after reading Lu Qi's at this moment, she immediately knew that even if she drew the same one now, it would not be better than the one in front of her.

"As long as you are satisfied." Lu Qi smiled.

At this time, there is a sense of vanity that every time I finish cooking, I get a lot of praise from the girls.

He still likes it.

"It's more than just satisfaction. After I return to China, I will definitely hang it in my bedroom!" The woman's fair and tender face was rosy, with a joy of finding a treasure.

"Go home?"

Lu Qi heard this keyword and repeated it.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself."

Only then did the woman realize that she didn't seem to have declared her name, so she gave an elegant lady's salute, "It's our first meeting, Your Royal Highness, I'm Paris Marguerite from Groland."

"Margaret."

Lu Qi had a little impression of this name, and after about two seconds, he suddenly said: "It's the first time we meet, Princess Margaret."

"You can call me Panis directly." Panis smiled at Lu Qi with a wink.

Lu Qi still had some surprises at the moment.

Grolante is a country located in the southeast of Demacia, and its strength is not bad.

It is an ally of Demacia for many years, and the friendly relationship between the two countries can be traced back a long time ago.

The Panis standing in front of her was the only daughter of King Groland.

In terms of status, she is on the same level as Lu Qi.

"I didn't expect to meet His Highness by chance on the first day I came to the capital of Debang. I don't know if this counts as fate?"

At this moment, Panisi stared at Lu Qi with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said with a smile.

"I think it's some kind of fate." Lu Qi nodded.

Panis looked at Lu Qi, and said proactively, "What is Your Highness going to do next? If you don't mind, can I come with you? This is my first time in the capital, if Your Highness can show me around, It would be great."

Lu Qi got a little dizzy when he heard it. If it was someone else, he would have rejected it directly.

But the one in front of me is the princess of a neighboring country after all, so it might be a little bad for her to refuse.

After thinking about it, he said euphemistically, "I'm going to buy some painting tools. I'm afraid I don't have much time."

"Then please give this to me!"

Upon hearing this, Panisi's eyes lit up, and after leaving these words, she trotted away.

Lu Qi was left in a daze.

Soon, he saw a few servants walking over behind Panis.

And those servants held a lot of painting tools in their hands, all of which looked brand new.

At this time, Lu Qi remembered.

Although the land area of ​​Groland is small, it is a famous country of art.

Many famous works of art circulating in Runeterra come from this country.

And this country naturally cannot do without the art of painting.

During this National Day, there was also trade between Groland and Demacia, and that was mostly the trade.

"These are some high-quality painting tools from my country, please accept them, Your Highness."

While talking, Panisi added, fearing that Lu Qi would refuse, "Just take it as a thank you gift from Your Highness for helping me change the painting."

To be honest, with so many painting tools in front of me, the quality is better than that of Durang Street.

After accepting it, Lu Qi will not have to worry about running out of tools for painting for a while.

However, he had a vague premonition that there would be a lot of trouble after accepting it.

However, looking at the very enthusiastic Panis at this moment, he didn't know how to refuse at all.

At this moment, a voice came from not far away.

"Parniss, why did you sneak out when you just arrived in the capital today? I didn't tell you, come out after you finish your business!"

A strong male voice sounded.

Lu Qi looked, and saw a middle-aged man with brown hair in a brown coat walking towards him, with a bit of majesty.

Panisi's complexion changed, she looked at the man, and lowered her head: "Sorry, uncle, I couldn't hold back."

"Okay, come back with me first, we're going to see His Majesty the King later."

As the man said, he noticed Lu Qi, and he was slightly stunned. After a second of reaction, he also saluted, "It's the first time to meet you, Your Royal Highness, I am Dupont Margaret."

Although it was only the first meeting, it did not prevent him from recognizing Lu Qi's identity.

One is because Lu Qi wears the badge of the Light Shield family.

The second is his outstanding temperament and excellent appearance.

The recognition is high.

"first meet."

Lu Qi bowed slightly and saluted.

This man, also surnamed Margaret, seemed to be Panis' uncle, and seemed to be the king's younger brother.

"I didn't expect to meet His Highness here, but we are going to see His Majesty III soon, so we have to say goodbye first."

DuPont spoke to Lu Qi politely.

Lu Qi nodded immediately when he heard that, "That's really a pity, I'm still going to take her for a stroll, if that's the case, then see you later."

Du Pont laughed and said, "If you have this idea, after seeing His Majesty III, I can ask Panis to go find His Highness."

Lu Qi: "."

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't be cheap.

Seeing the anticipation in Panis' eyes, he immediately said, "I can only wait for a while. I've been a little busy recently."

"Then it's a deal." Panisi waved her hand farewell with the same expectation in her eyes, "Then see you some other day, Your Highness."

After saying goodbye, she left a pile of painting gifts and left with Dupont.

Urna asked at this time: "Your Highness, how to deal with these things?"

Lu Qi sighed: "Take it."

This time, it saved a lot of time.

All the painting tools that Panis left behind were loaded into the carriage, and the entire carriage sank.

Then, he drove slowly and headed back home.

In the carriage, he took a few glances and found that all kinds of painting tools were readily available, including paints, brushes, canvases, and easels.
It can be seen that this batch of tools is still worth a lot of money.
