Your Highness, the princess is going to paint your portrait

Chapter 11 Keep your duty
In Jingzhao Mansion, Jing Chun held a jar of wine panting and handed it to Shopkeeper Li, "My daughter's red, just brewed, it's fresh..."

Li Putou opened the wine seal, smelled it carefully, and said with half-squinted eyes: "It's really a good wine, Well Painter, thank you very much."

Jing Chun was still panting heavily, and only said "No thanks".

As soon as Capt. Li put the wine jar close to his lips, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Yesterday, when you went to the Liang Mansion, did you ride His Highness Prince Li's carriage?"

Jing Chun was a little surprised. She thought that the carriage was arranged by Jiang Hejin secretly, but the fact is that even Shopkeeper Li knew about it, "Who said this...?"

"There is no need to say it. As soon as you left yesterday, His Royal Highness King Li ordered the guards to see you off. Jingzhao Mansion is such a big place, what can be hidden there?"

He gave the order in front of everyone in the Jingzhao Mansion, which completely boosted his favorability.

Jing Chun said with a sneer: "His Royal Highness Li Wang has a kind heart, so it's not surprising to see me here."

"If you think that way, then it's good. You will follow the case of the theft of Prince Li's Mansion in the future. It's important to keep your duty."

Listening to Li Putou's words, Jing Chun had another meaning, "Li Putou's meaning is..."

Li Putou looked at the fine wine in his bosom, looked around again, and said: "Don't blame me, Old Li, for being talkative, after all, His Royal Highness Li Wang is a relative of the emperor, and if you don't want to cause trouble, there is no guarantee that something will not trouble you. "

After saying that, Li Putou left with the wine in his arms.

The meaning of Li Putou's words is not difficult to understand. Since ancient times, there have been many disputes in the royal family, so there is no guarantee that trouble will not come to your door.

Just as Jing Chun walked a few steps, he saw Song Yiwen and Jiang Hejin approaching. The case of the theft of Prince Li's Mansion was handed over to Jing Chun, and Song Yiwen just explained a few words.

Jing Chun didn't have any other meanings, and bowed respectfully, just as if she was still a painter in Jingzhao Mansion, and Jiang Hejin was His Royal Highness King Li.

On the other hand, Jiang Hejin had a nonchalant expression on his face, a gentle expression, not necessarily ridiculed by Jing Chun yesterday, and thinking of the hairpin he gave him this morning, Jing Chun couldn't see through this person even more.

Song Yiwen explained all the matter to Jing Chun, Jing Chun said nothing else, led Jiang and Jin into the studio, Jing Chun spread out a piece of drawing paper, took out a piece of willow charcoal, and talked about it case.

"That person should be a woman, wearing embroidered shoes..."

Embroidered shoes... Jing Chun raised his eyebrows and followed closely, "What kind of embroidered shoes?"

Jiang Hejin frowned slightly, "How can I remember clearly?"

Jing Chun had no choice but to change his method, "Your Highness, do you still remember what color it is?"

"Pink, it should be blue-pink."

If it is someone who can give away bracelets and hairpins, the color control is accurate, and the aesthetics are not deviated.

Jing Chun continued to ask: "What kind of pattern are there on the shoes?"

"Can not remember."

The shoes are a clue, but they are broken.

Jiang Hejin continued: "She is thin, not tall, has a thin face, thin eyebrows, pink and phoenix eyes, and a bigger mouth..."

These descriptions can indeed reach the level of depicting portraits. The sound of the willow charcoal sticks in Jing Chun's hands rings on the drawing paper, from the outline of the face to the eyes and mouth of the other party.

Jing Chun's drawings have gradually revealed the preliminary appearance of the characters.

"Where's the cheekbones of the other party?" Jing Chun pointed to the cheekbones under his eyes, "Is it prominent?"

"A little."

Hearing this, Jing Chun stopped the charcoal pen in his hand for a few seconds, and asked with some doubts: "Compared with mine, is the thief's cheekbones more obvious?"

Jiang Hejin also shifted his gaze to Jing Chun's face and nodded, "In comparison, her cheekbones are distinct, while yours are rounder."

"What about your age? As Your Highness knows, I am 17 years old. Compared with that person, who is older?"

Jiang Hejin said calmly: "Is this related to the case?"

No wonder Jiang and Jin misunderstood, this kind of age comparison sounds like jealousy.

Jing Chun had no choice but to explain: "With age, cheekbones generally become wider and wider. From the perspective of a normal woman like me, since the other party's cheekbones are prominent, she should be older than me. I just asked His Royal Highness Li Wang to verify my conjecture."

"Indeed, I feel older than you."

Jing Chun smiled slightly, seeing that he guessed right.

For some reason, the sense of recognition gained from Jiang Hejin was as proud as winning a battle. Jing Chunqu held the pen with his fingers, feeling even more confident.

Jing Chun continued to ask, "Is the bridge of the nose high?"

"A little."

"Are there any other special marks on your face?"

"No."

……

After a while, Jing Chun showed the character to Jiang Hejin and asked, "Does it look like this person?"

"There are some similarities, the eyes need to be smaller, and the face needs to be more distinct."

Jing Chun took another piece of drawing paper and drew another one according to what Jiang Hejin said, "The eyes are smaller..."

After hearing this, Jing Chun took another piece of rice paper, traced it carefully, and asked Lu Chi some more questions. After going back and forth five or six times, he finally heard a satisfactory answer from Jiang Hejin.

"It's about seven to eight points similar."

But Jingchun looked at the painting in his hand and examined it carefully.

The characters in this painting were drawn according to Jiang Hejin's description. Perhaps it has something to do with the woman's brushstrokes. The characters in the painting are somewhat charming, but it is precisely because of this kind of charming that Jing Chun feels that something is wrong the more he looks at it, But I can't tell what went wrong...

Jing Chun put away the charcoal pencil in his hand, and asked, "Is there anyone suspicious, Your Highness?"

Jiang Hejin thought for a long time, but could only shake his head. This Tianshan Snow Lotus was left to the Queen Mother. Who would dare to touch it, and it was still stolen in Prince Li's Mansion.

Jing Chunxu asked, "Have everyone in the palace asked this question?"

Lu Chi frowned, "Not yet, Miss Jing suspects that someone from the house did it?"

"Yes and no need to be asked to understand." Jing Chun looked at Lu Chi and said, "Can I go to Prince Li's mansion to ask questions?"

Lu Chi was a little dull for a while, this Prince Li's mansion is not Lu Chi's home, what's the use of asking him, you should ask the person next to you.

However, Jiang Hejin put away his fan, stood up, glanced at the drawing paper in Jing Chun's hand, and said, "If I had known this, I should have sent you directly to Prince Li's Mansion, and I wasted the time to go back and forth."

Listening to the stern scolding, Jing Chun felt disdain in his heart. If he had known this earlier, there would be no need for Jing Chun to handle the case.

Jing Chun couldn't get annoyed, so he bowed respectfully and said, "His Royal Highness Li Wang said so."

Jing Chun greeted the people in the house and said he was working on a case. When he saw the carriage, Jing Chun knew what he was interested in. Jiang and Jin were sitting in the carriage, so she had to sit on the carriage's board with Lu Chi. This was a good place to go. Instead of the depression of getting along with Jiang Hejin, Jing Chun let out a sigh of relief.

On the way, Jing Chun was not idle, watching the various women's shoes coming and going.

The embroidered shoes were hand-made and had only a few patterns. Thinking of this, Jing Chun took another look at his shoes. He wore a pair of cyan shoes for his size 37 feet. Fortunately, they were cyan and not embroidered.

Generally speaking, the style of embroidered shoes worn by ordinary people is nothing new, so Jing Chun drew a few embroidered styles and asked Jiang and Jin when he found some.

After driving all the way to Prince Li's Mansion, Jing Chun felt a solemn atmosphere as soon as he entered the door.

Yes, Prince Li's Mansion is too quiet, as quiet as a wreck lost in the deep sea, which makes people depressive and frightened, but makes Jing Chun want to find out with a curious mind.

Before he could, Mammy sent a message, "Your Highness, the people from the Clothing Bureau are here to decide on the style of the wedding dress. Miss Jing has already chosen it, and you still need to make another decision."

Shang... Shang Yi Bureau?

This morning, the people from the Clothing Bureau said that the choice of wedding dress material would be left to Jiang Hejin to decide.

Jing Chun has just met the people from the Shangyi Bureau. If the people from the Shangyi Bureau recognize this, it will not only be an embarrassment for Jing Chun, but also a matter of Jing Chun's job in Jingzhao Mansion. Find it out.
