Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 316
As soon as Liu Yunxiang returned to the backyard, Murong Zhixi hurried over and asked her what was going on, and then asked if she could help.

"When I need your help, I will not be polite."

Murong Zhixi nodded hurriedly, "There is no need to be polite between us."

"The capital's government hasn't troubled you recently, has it?" Liu Yunxiang dragged Murong Zhixi to Luohan's bed. She had a big belly now and couldn't sit comfortably. She put a pillow behind her for her to lean on.

"After I listened to you and returned to the mansion, I sent away all the dowry maids and servants my mother gave me, and a new person was replaced in my courtyard. My mother sent me a message to let me go back to my mansion. I didn't go back because I was unwell. Later, my father came to see Once, he asked me if I was angry because they planned to marry the second sister to the King of England. I said bluntly, but my father didn't say anything, just let me take good care of him and left."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said: "Let's put it this way, your father and your mother have different purposes, your father is to win over the King of England, and your mother just wants your second sister to marry well, which means that your father and your mother have different goals. Your mother will have a different attitude towards this matter. Your father is more concerned about whether your chess piece is useful. If it is useful, there is no need for him to add another one and take the risk of alienating you. Your mother , don’t worry about it, she puts your second sister first, so it can be said that she has given up on you long ago. This is cruel, but you must be clear in your heart and know how to find a balance in the middle and keep your seat. "

Murong Zhixi digested Liu Yunxiang's words for a while, with a sad expression on his face, "I know what you said is right, but I..."

Liu Yunxiang took Murong Zhixi's hand and placed it on her stomach, "You are about to become a mother, you must be sober and strong enough to protect your child."

Born in the royal family, the King of England still has ambitions, which means that there are many crises.

Moreover, Liu Yunxiang thought about it carefully later, the king of England succeeded in seizing the throne and ascended the throne as Emperor Yingzong. She remembered that he had been suffering from childlessness, first got a daughter in middle age, and then added a prince, with few heirs.

If calculated in this way, Murong Zhixi would not be able to keep the child in her womb.

Murong Zhixi stroked her belly, then nodded heavily, "Yun Xiang, you are right, I can't be afraid, I have to protect my child!"

"Well, if you have any difficulties, remember to discuss with me."

"it is good!"

After sending Murong Zhixi away, Liu Yunxiang called a guy named Chen Chong to her. Zhang Qi specifically mentioned this Chen Chong to her, saying that he has good abilities and can be reused.

"I have two things to tell you to do now."

Chen Chong nodded, "Say it."

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, and said: "First thing, I want you to find a shop, and I want to open a study."

"what?"

This South Red Building has already become a trap, why should another shop be opened, Chen Chong expressed his puzzlement without any concealment.

"Help me find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. I will make an elegant collection."

"what?"

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Go and do it first."

Chen Chong was tall, muscular, and simple-minded, he didn't look like a smart person, but since Zhang Qi recommended him, Liu Yunxiang had no doubts.

Chen Chong scratched his head, but didn't ask much, "Okay, I'll do it now, little one."

In the morning of the next day, Liu Yunxiang changed into the maid's clothes on purpose, and asked Chen Chong to pick out a well-fitting ready-to-wear from the shop.

Chen Chong changed into a long robe, combed his hair, and his demeanor changed instantly.

"Boss, what are we doing here?"

"You go somewhere with me."

When I came to Avon Pavilion, there were many scholars in front of the door, and they were queuing up to go inside.And there is a small door next to it, people who come here don't need to queue up, just get in after receiving the sign.

Liu Yunxiang went up to inquire, and all those who entered from here were interested in bidding for calligraphy and painting.

"My boss is going to buy some calligraphy and paintings, can I get a sign?" Liu Yunxiang said.

The person who issued the sign was a middle-aged man, he glanced at Chen Chong and said, "Which company is this boss?"

"Nan Mozhai."

"Nanmo Studio?" The man thought for a while, "Is there such a study in the capital?"

"It's not just opened, it's the time when there is a shortage of famous paintings with this name." Liu Yunxiang said as he took out an ingot of silver and gave it to the man, "My boss is so proud that he wants to buy ten or eight of them."

The man looked at Chen Chong again, his darkness turned bright, he really looked like a local tyrant.

"Okay, you two go in, Tianzi No. [-]."

Liu Yunxiang took the sign, waved to Chen Chong, and walked inside.Entering through this small door is the stairs, and going up to the second floor from here is a long corridor surrounded by wing rooms.

A clerk came forward, saw their sign, and led them to room No. [-], Tianzi.

The room is not big, refreshments are placed on the table, there is a terrace in front, you can see the Avon Pavilion lobby, and you can also see the chime bells playing on the front stage.

There is also a mahogany card and ten envelopes on the table. According to the rules, when the singing and selling are in progress, the drum will sound, and any room with a red card during this period means that they want to bid.The drum beat again, and those who wanted to bid wrote the price change in an envelope and handed it to someone outside, who opened the envelope on the spot, and the highest bidder won.

The bidders did not show their faces and hid in the grid-like boxes, while those who did not bid gathered below to watch the excitement.

Chen Chong glanced down and said, "There are so many people!"

Liu Yunxiang took a sip of tea, "It's better if there are more people."

The chime bells on the stage stopped, and the singing and selling began. First, a few inkstones, brush washers, and wolf brushes were sold, and the place was warmed up first. Liu Yunxiang did not bid.

The next one is the only well-preserved painting by Zhang Jian, the painter of the previous dynasty. It is said that this Jianshan landscape painting is a very famous painter in the previous dynasty.But because he painted a picture of "Lishan Picture", which included the emperor's palace in Lishan at that time, which was brightly lit and resplendent, some people said that his painting alluded to the emperor's extravagance.

The emperor was angry, not only killed Zhang Jian, but also burned all his paintings, and a generation of painting saints fell, with only a false name and no posthumous works.

"This one is the "Lishan Tu" painted by the sage Zhang Jian!" The person presiding over the bidding said excitedly.

There was an uproar below, and they asked Zhang Jian if all his words had been burned, so how could there be any survivors?
"This "Lishan Picture" was originally intended to be thrown into the stove, but at that time the elder Li Zheng spent a lot of money to buy the people inside, and secretly transferred it out for him, and kept it in his house until the fall of the previous dynasty. It's in the hands of our Avon Hin."

The people below were already amazed, but that person didn't think it was lively enough. There were two scrolls and one, where there were still traces of burning.

"Let us see the real thing!"

"Yeah, whoever buys it, just show kindness and let us take a look."

The people below started booing, and the host waved his hand, "Be quiet, everyone, let's start the bidding."
