The servants of Changsun Mansion did not expect that their master would come out to greet this person in person, and he, Changsun Wuji, had scolded him secretly for countless times.
Looking at Changsun Wuji with a smile on his face, the servants of Changsun Mansion felt a little strange.
Zhao Chen stood at the gate of Changsun Mansion and saw Changsun Wuji come out to greet him with a smile on his face.
This was also a little surprised.
Although Changsun Chong and Zhao Chen have a good relationship, Changsun Wuji has been helping Li Chengqian to deal with him.
Zhao Chen has never been to Changsun Mansion.
This is the first time I came here, Changsun Wuji came out to invite him in person.
This old guy is planning something, right!
Zhao Chen thought to himself.
There was no expression on this face.
"Mr. Zhao, thank you for your hard work, please come in quickly!"
"Are you blind? Take something to Mr. Zhao!" Changsun Wuji smiled and scolded the servants around him.
The servant quickly took over the basket from Zhao Chen's hand.
"The Duke of Qi doesn't have to do this. Today I am ordered to come. After finishing the painting, I have to go to the next house." Zhao Chen pulled out the hand that Changsun Wuji held and said with a smile.
Zhao Chen painted according to the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion he gave to the emperor.
This is not a small project.
Moreover, his relationship with Changsun Wuji is not very good.
Seeing Zhao Chen pulling out his hand, a hint of displeasure flashed across Changsun Wuji's face.
However, without any worries, he reached out to invite Zhao Chen into the mansion.
He sent tea and various pastries, and Changsun Wuji shut down everyone.
Sitting in his own yard with Zhao Chen.
"Thank you Mr. Zhao, I wonder if that kid Changsun Chong has made progress recently?" Changsun Wuji stood in front of Zhao Chen, saw Zhao Chen holding a paintbrush in his hand, and asked.
Changsun Wuji didn't know if Zhao Chen could see that he was poisoned.
Even Zhao Chen couldn't see it.
Then he should also take the initiative to talk about this matter with Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, who would know what crazy Li Chengqian would do in the future and would directly take his life!
"Changsun Chong performed well, so Duke of Qi doesn't need to worry."
"It's better for Duke Qi to take care of himself!" Zhao Chen didn't raise his head and continued his work.
Changsun Wuji felt a sudden heart.
I secretly wondered if Zhao Chen could see that he was poisoned.
But he couldn't ask directly.
"The older this person is, the less physically you are, the more you are, the more you are, when you wake up every day, you feel so depressed."
"After seeing the imperial doctor, I can't find the root cause!"
"It's better to be young!" Changsun Wuji said slowly, looking at Zhao Chen.
He had already suggested so clearly. If Zhao Chen saw it, he would probably know that he was poisoned!
Who knew that Zhao Chen ignored this at all and kept caring about his work.
Changsun Wuji couldn't understand whether Zhao Chen understood his words for a while.
Or actually, Zhao Chen could tell at a glance that he was just pretending to be stupid or not trying to pay attention to himself!
The atmosphere in the yard is a bit awkward.
Changsun Wuji didn't know what to say.
"I heard that you asked someone to inquire about the whereabouts of Doctor Sun!" Zhao Chen glanced at Changsun Wuji and asked lightly.
Wannian County and County Government Offices are all Zhao Chen's people.
Changsun Wuji sent someone to Wannian County to inquire about Sun Simiao's movements, and Zhao Chen received the news early in the morning.
"Yes, I'm not feeling well, so I want to ask Dr. Sun for a look!"
"It's just Doctor Sun..."
"You can ask the imperial physician in the palace to see you. Doctor Sun has been out recently and I don't know when he will come back!" Zhao Chen interrupted Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji opened his mouth.
He wanted to ask Zhao Chen to help him take a look.
But Zhao Chen has such a cold attitude...
"The Lord's family, the East Palace wrote to him, Your Highness, please go to the East Palace for a banquet tomorrow evening!" The butler said, standing at the door of the yard.
Changsun Wuji's expression changed slightly, and his fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched.
"Mr. Zhao, I..."
"Duke of Qi, the portrait has been prepared. Let's hang it here first. When the ink is dry, you can send it to His Majesty Ganquan Palace."
"Goodbye!" Zhao Chen and Changsun Wuji bowed, packed up their things and turned around and left, without even a moment of stay.
Changsun Wuji opened his mouth and could only watch Zhao Chen leave.
Walking to the front of the portrait, Changsun Wuji looked at the portrait that was exactly the same as himself, frowned, and sighed in his heart.
...
"Hey, is this a portrait of the husband who painted his father?"
Changsun Chong was called back from the academy by the housekeeper.
Seeing the portrait hanging in the hall, I felt curious in my eyes.
"It was painted by Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Zhao came in the morning." The butler nodded and explained.
"No wonder, I didn't see the gentleman in the academy today, and there were no people in his mansion?"
"So it's time to paint." Changsun nodded.
He admired Zhao Chen very much.
It’s this portrait, it’s clear that the real person is standing in front of him!
"Hey, housekeeper, my father asked me to come back, but what's wrong?" Changsun Chong asked.
He has classes in the academy today.
When he asked for leave, Old Wei didn't give him any good looks.
He even threatened to hand him over to Zhao Chen to clean up.
There are regulations in the academy that you are not allowed to take leave at will without major issues.
If you are discovered, you will be cleaned up.
Cheng Chumo once asked for leave to go home to drink, but Zhao Chen took a broom and chased him out of Duke Lu's mansion.
When I returned to the academy, I even tidied up.
Changsun Chong doesn’t want to experience this!
"Young Master, the master seems to be sick." The butler whispered to Changsun Chong.
"I'm sick?" Changsun frowned.
His father was fine a few days ago, why did he suddenly get sick?
"Yes, the master asked the villain to invite Doctor Sun. Doctor Sun was not here and wanted to ask Mr. Zhao again, but Mr. Zhao did not give the master a chance to speak at all."
"How could this happen?" Changsun Chong was a little anxious.
Even his father's actions are often dissatisfied with his Changsun Chong.
But Changsun Wuji is sick, how can he not be in a hurry?
"Don't know."
"The master is here, please ask yourself!" After the butler said that, he bowed and left.
Changsun Wuji walked over with a step.
Changsun Wuji was still very happy to see Changsun Chong who was becoming more energetic.
No matter what, it was not wrong to ask Changsun Chong to follow Zhao Chen.
Now when it comes to the name Changsun Chong, few people say that this is Changsun Chong, the son of Changsun Wuji.
Instead, this is Changsun Chong of Chang'an Academy.
Although it is just a few words, its meaning is completely different.
"Chong'er, your changes have been too great this year. I am very pleased for my father!" Changsun Wuji pulled Changsun Chong down, sighing with a little expression.
Changsun Chong didn't say anything, he looked at Changsun Wuji's face.
I didn't see anything unusual.
"The butler told you all."
"Being a father is not sick, but being poisoned!" Changsun Wuji shook his head and said slowly.
"Poison?" Changsun Chong stood up at that time.
"Who did it?"
Changsun Chong was very puzzled. Who had such courage to poison the dignified Duke and the imperial servants?
"Sit down first." Changsun Wuji waved his hand and signaled Changsun to sit down.
Changsun Chong could not sit there, looking at his father with concern.
"It's Li Chengqian!"
