It took Xu Zongwen a stick of incense to walk around the entire secret room. The secret room was very spacious, with a long table placed in the middle. The air in the secret room was very dry, but it was very clean and tidy, filled with a faint, strange soil.

Fishy smell!

He found a famous painting hidden on the wall of the secret room, took it off, and pulled out a pear wood box from the grid at the back.

Xu Zongwen blew a little breath to disperse the dust before he was ready to open the pear wood box.

Xu Zongwen took the pear wood box and looked at it carefully for a long time, pulled the mechanism on the side, and slowly opened it... When he opened the box, a strong light shone through, which was very dazzling. He subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, and slowly opened the box.

Yes, the strong light faded slightly...

The box contains what seems to be a scroll of calligraphy and painting. After opening it, you can see that the head is made of silk, the back of the flap is made of yellow silk, and the tail paper is decorated with white Yue paper.

"Lang Jun, this seems to be calligraphy and painting."

"It should be. It doesn't look like an ordinary thing. Otherwise, it wouldn't be placed in such a hidden place."

Xu Zongwen smiled and stretched out his hand to touch the exquisite calligraphy and painting as if he had found a treasure. The paper felt delicate and soft and looked very special.

"Since it's not an ordinary product, you might as well open it and take a look!" Xu Zongwen picked it up and said excitedly.

"This is Gu Changkang's "Picture of Wild Geese and Waterbirds"!"

Gu Kaizhi, courtesy name Changkang, together with General Xie Xuan of Chariots and Cavalry, Grand Tutor Xie An's nephew Yang Tan, Jiangzuo's number one chess player Zhang Xuanzhi, General Huan Yi of the Right Army, Wang Xianzhi, Wang Huizhi, and Xie Daoyun's uncle and sister-in-law, these eight people in total.

Known as the Eight Sages of Jiangzuo.

Gu Kaizhi is the painting sage, Xie Xuan is the virtuous sage and ranks first among the eight sages, Yang Tan is the music sage, Zhang Xuanzhi is the chess sage, Huan Yi is the flute sage, Wang Xianzhi is the calligraphy sage, Wang Huizhi is the wine sage, and Xie Daoyun is the literature sage.

Gu Kaizhi is known as a master of painting. His masterpieces are handed down from generation to generation, such as the "Picture of Proverbs of a Female History", "Picture of Qin Qin" and "Picture of Luo Shen Fu". Among them, "Picture of Proverbs of a Female History" is called a national treasure in later generations, and that national treasure is not Gu Kaizhi's original work, but only a Song Dynasty painting.

Just a human copy!

It is conceivable that the "Picture of Wild Geese and Waterbirds" in Xu Zongwen's hands is naturally priceless, but unexpectedly it was hidden in the cellar by Fu Lang!

"Lang Jun, there is another passage over here." Zhang San's voice attracted Xu Zongwen...

Fu Lang had already met Zhou Gong and was asking for advice on how to govern the country. He was awakened by the sound of the guards in the palace catching thieves. How could he still sleep?

He turned over and lay down on the bed, pulled out a steel knife from under the pillow, and pushed open the door with careful steps. He asked a soldier: "What's going on with such chaos?"

Soldier: "Back to you, a thief has sneaked into the house, and my subordinates are arresting the thief. Please don't worry!"

"We must not let the thief escape!"

"promise!"

Fu Lang closed the door and had just hid the steel knife when a sudden vibration came from the cabinet in front of him. He quickly took out the steel knife, operated it with both hands, and slowly approached the cabinet.

"Who is it? Come out to me, or I will kill you if you don't come out!"

"Brother, don't worry, we are good people, don't be impulsive!" Xu Zongwen exposed half of his head from the cabinet, and was immediately pressed against his neck by Fu Lang's steel knife. He was so frightened that he did not dare to say a word. He quickly came out and raised his hands above his head.

He didn't dare to move, for fear that the reckless man in front of him would not control his strength and accidentally pull his neck.

Fu Lang was puzzled and thought: This man is fair-skinned and so handsome. How come he has this weird habit of sneaking into people's bedrooms in the middle of the night?

Fu Lang glanced at Xu Zongwen and then at himself, who was only wearing a single coat, and thought to himself: I think I, Fu Lang, am handsome, charming, and a thousand-mile horse of the Fu family. This is also a well-known and unquestionable fact! This boy can't be

After hearing about my reputation, I also have the love of Longyang and the habit of cutting sleeves, so I have evil intentions in my heart. In fact, I have lustful thoughts towards me and want to plot evil, right?

Xu Zongwen's neck felt uncomfortable with the cold steel knife, and a chill came from his neck. While Fu Lang was observing him, he was also secretly sizing up Fu Lang.

It's just that Fu Lang's sudden action of protecting his chest was really funny. This sudden quirk made him unable to deal with it for a moment, and he was a little at a loss.

"Brother, can you move your broadsword a little bit? I feel uncomfortable with this, mainly because I'm afraid you'll be tired from holding it."

"brother?"

Seeing Fu Lang protecting his chest and not responding to him, Xu Zongwen also felt suspicious: "Is this man sick in his chest? Why are you covering your chest? Why is there so many people at night?"

Xu Zongwen thought of the two men in black he met when he climbed over the wall and was admitted to the hospital. Looking at the movement in the governor's house, it was obvious that those two men were thieves.

He didn't know whether the thief succeeded or not, but he and Zhang San accidentally fell into Fu Lang's secret room while following him, and also stole Gu Kaizhi's masterpiece worth thousands of gold. This was really a trick of God's will.

"Did you know that this is where I sleep? How dare you lurk here late at night? Who are you? Why don't you just recruit me?"

Xu Zongwen was surprised, "It turns out he is the envoy of Qingzhou, disrespectful."

It really took no effort to find a place after trying hard to find it! Xu Zongwen visited the Inspector's Mansion at night just to meet Fu Lang before Pei Qing and to find out what was going on. But he didn't expect that the exit of the secret room was actually Fu Lang's room?

"Your Majesty, please see what I have in my bag?" Xu Zongwen winked. Fu Lang reached out his hand and groped under Xu Zongwen's body half-confidently, and then took out a green-sanded copper button to seal the general's seal.

After Fu Lang carefully inspected the official seal, he looked at Xu Zongwen: "Are you Xu Xiao, the heroic cavalry general of the Jin State, who defeated several counties in Xuzhou and defeated Pengcheng?"

"It's none other than Xu Xiao." Xu Zongwen's voice was low, but very sincere.

Fu Lang put down the steel knife, "I wonder if General Xu breaks into my house in the middle of the night. What can he do?"

Xu Zongwen breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to touch his still smooth neck, "I don't dare to accept advice. I, Xu Xiao, rushed from Pengcheng to Linzi. I just came here because of your reputation. All just to meet the envoy."

"I heard that the general asked Wang Xian to surrender the city in the first battle at Xiapi. Is it possible that the general came to Qingzhou tonight to plot against me?" Fu Lang turned around, and a sharp knife was immediately pressed against his back. He asked in surprise: "General, what is this?

What is it for?"

Xu Zongwen: "Zhang San, put it down quickly."

Zhang San listened in the cabinet for a long time, then suddenly jumped out of the cabinet when Fu Lang was not paying attention, took out a sharp knife and prepared to subdue Fu Lang.

"Put it down, this is Qingzhou Governor Fu Shijun!"

Xu Zongwen stepped forward, grabbed the sharp blade and threw it aside. Only then did Zhang San understand the whole story and quickly apologized to Fu Lang.

Fu Lang returned the official seal to Xu Zongwen, and Xu Zongwen smiled: "I have misunderstood you. I heard that the fish in Taiping Tower in Linzi is very delicious, so I came here to taste it. Furthermore, I came here to convey a message to someone."

Come."

Fu Lang sat down slowly, pointed to the bench in front of him, motioned for Xu Zongwen to sit down and said.

"The general traveled thousands of miles to come to Zi, for whom did he deliver the message?"

"He is the Grand Tutor of the Jin Dynasty." Xu Zongwen just sat down.

Fu Lang took a deep look at Xu Zongwen: "Master Xie Anshi?"

"Exactly." Xu Zongwen said without hesitation: "My imperial master has admired the emperor for a long time. He once said that if the emperor can come to Jiankang, he will not lose his position as a prince!"

Although Fu Lang was the nephew of King Fu Jian of Qin, his title was not the same as that of the sons of King Qin. Changle Duke Fu Pi, Pingyuan Duke Fu Hui, and Guangping Duke Fu Xi were all county dukes, but he, Fu Lang, had to be

Got a little boy from Le'an County.

If what Xu Zongwen said was true and Xie An really treated him as a prince, Fu Lang was really tempted.

"Master is still sincere." Fu Lang smiled with satisfaction.

When Xu Zongwen saw that there was something going on, he hurriedly said: "I will see you clearly. If you really have the intention to go south, Taifu will welcome you sincerely and will never treat you badly."

"Although the official positions of Qingzhou Governor and Zhendong General sound high-ranking, they are actually worthless, tasteless, and a pity to abandon. So you might as well take advantage of this opportunity to make a future for yourself..."

"The Northern Expedition of the Jin Dynasty is unstoppable, and it is only a matter of time to recover the Central Plains and the two capitals. You must have heard that the armies of Xie Cheqi and Liu Jianwu are about to recover Yuzhou, and the soldiers of the Beifu will soon drink from the Yellow River and aspire to the throne.

Central Plains…”

Xu Zongwen was eloquent and eloquent, and Fu Lang couldn't help but nod his head. Xi Jian's words of persuasion to him a few days ago were still in his ears. Tonight, Xu Zongwen's words made sense again, and he had begun to waver.

"However, such confidential matters must be carefully planned and not leaked!" Xu Zongwen stood up and walked to Fu Lang's side, speaking clearly word by word.

"What General Xu said is true."

Fu Lang's face looked better, and his voice became softer: "General Xu is here late at night, and I don't have anything to entertain him. When the big thing is decided, I will reward the general well! Doesn't the general like the glory of Taiping Tower? Qiu Ju?"

I have a friendship with the chief helmsman of the Taipinglou Seventy-Two Family. If you have the opportunity, I would like to invite you to come and try the craftsmanship of the seventeen-knife master of Taipinglou."
