Ninety-Three: Drawing Dragons
The servant of the Six Kings House took the black donkey out of the stable. The black donkey was sniffing, but he still missed the food trough. The servant worked hard to hand the reins to Li Chan. He wiped the sweat and said, "Sir Li, this donkey has a lot of food. Your Highness's Five-Ming Horse has eaten enough on weekdays, but it has to be a little bit worse."
In the stable, there was a horse with black body, four hooves as snow, a goose's nose and eyes as hanging bells. It looked at the black donkey and sniffled, as if it was because it was blamed for snatching the food.
Li Peijie went over to touch the horse's hair, "Sir, this donkey is really extraordinary, but when you are in a hurry to travel, is your foot strength enough? If you don't dislike me, please lead me, Wumingmai."
"I can't receive any reward without any merits. I'm grateful for your kindness." Li Chan smiled and patted the donkey's head, turned over and sat on it, "Although this donkey was not moving fast, it was rare to be a bit silly. Besides, if this good horse was replaced and she wouldn't even have a space to spread her hooves, it would be buried."
Li Peijie smiled and asked, "Sir, are you going to Longyou Soup today?"
Li Chan nodded.
Li Peijie is looking forward to saying: "How many days will the murals painted by Long Youtang be completed? I heard that many people have visited these days."
Li Chan said: "It's been a few days."
At this time, another brisk sound of horse hooves came not far away.
"Brother Fu Cha."
Li Chan turned around and saw Jiang Ru riding a white horse, holding the reins in her hand.
"No confusion?" Li Chanqi said, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Ru smiled, "I heard that the Supreme One was suffering from cold, so I came over to take a look." He bowed to Li Peijie, "Your Highness Peijie."
"Master Jiang." Li Peijie responded with respect.
Li Chan asked knowingly: "Is Your Highness Lingbi's body still safe?"
Jiang Ru said: "Why don't you ask her in person?"
Li Chan smiled, "Unless she is willing to see me."
Jiang Ru teased: "I didn't want to do it before, but after the 'painting immortal' was given a painting, I guess I'm very willing."

"You don't know the details of the false reputation that the people spread through rumors." Li Chan smiled, "I gave her a painting to persuade her. If you say this, it seems that there is some effect."
"It's more than some effect." Jiang Ru shook her head and smiled, "In fact, Wu Shang has no bad intentions. She is born in the mountains of gold and will inevitably be extravagant. She is soft but not hard. If you advise her like this, she will listen."
Li Chan shook her head, "Your Highness was born in the Tian family. Every move will affect thousands of people. It is not enough to have bad intentions. In terms of virtue, it will be more strict than the common people."
Jiang Ru said: "This is a good statement, but I'm afraid few people can listen to it."
"It's good if there's someone listening." Li Chan smiled and glanced at Li Peijie.
Li Peijie sighed, "The students remember the teachings of Mr. I am in my heart. However, I want to live as freely as Mr. I am more comfortable than to get up. Last year, Zhaoxuan went to the Qingque Palace in Lizhou to be a Taoist son. Zhaoxuan was actually a little reluctant, but I was envious. I heard that the small pot beam on Fuyu Mountain is comparable to a fairyland. One day, I also want to go and see it. Without accompanying him, I learned to learn from the teacher, rode a green donkey, and went there with great pleasure, and returned with all his energy. This is how happy it is."
Li Chan was silent for a while, patted Li Peijie on the shoulder, and smiled and said, "What's the problem? After Your Highness comes out of the cabinet, I will go with you."
Li Peijie said happily: "Okay, sir is the one who keeps his promise, so don't miss the promise."
...
The black donkey and the white horse left Wangzhai Lane. Li Chan turned around and looked at the gate of Liuwangzhai, thinking about something.
Jiang Ru said: "Brother Fu Cha, why do you look worried?"
Li Chan withdrew her gaze and looked down at the slightly undulating mane of the black donkey, "Although we are just teaching His Highness Peijie, we are also reflecting on ourselves."
"Um?"
Li Chan said: "When I was a teenager, I wanted to learn magical powers. In addition to solving some puzzles, I also wanted to live an unrestrained life by stepping into the void and controlling the wind. I realized that even if I could be free and easy, many people were not allowed to be free."
Jiang Ru said curiously: "How do you say this?"
Li Chan said: "The foundation of the scholars in the palace's practice is the practice scriptures collected by the Twelve Bookstores. These scriptures are rare books collected and compiled by all the straight scholars who have traveled through mountains, rivers, lakes and seas for a hundred years, and have been verified after repeated examinations. For these books, not to mention that the scholars' hard work and the money they consume is difficult to count. Where does this money come from? They were dug out from the ground by the people of the world in spring and summer. Thinking of this, I feel that there is a little more burden on my body."
Jiang Ru thought about it and tightened the reins without realizing it. The white horse slowed down and landed behind the black donkey. She reacted, gently pinched the horse's belly with her legs and rushed forward.
"I haven't thought so much," she said. "Since the book collection is rare, you should practice harder so that you can live up to your predecessors."
Li Chan looked at Jiang Ru's clear eyes and sighed: "I should learn to be honest."
The two of them said, leaving Wangzhai Lane and blending into the bustling carriages.
When he arrived at the intersection, Jiang Ru asked, "Are you going to Longyou Soup?"
Li Chan said: "Have you heard of it too?"
"The painting immortals should paint in public. Who doesn't know about Yujing City?" Jiang Ru's tone became a little heavier when she missed Li Chan's alias and said with a smile: "This time, I'm just visiting the supreme thing, I'm here for this matter."
...
In midsummer, the heat is steaming. In such a season, it is difficult for the Holy Lord to get a trip to Longyou Soup.
Under the white wall north of the Yu Tang, a group of painters who were in charge grind the lead elixir, cinnabar, stone green, patina, mica, gold foil and other substances, blended it with sesame oil, and applied it to the wall.
A picture of a black pearl and jade dragon has been painted on the wall.
The jade dragon holds a pearl, and its figure is winding. The clouds floating by the dragon scales are floating, and the immortal officials and goddesses appear and appear.
"The hand is thick and thick. How can a fairy girl be so fat?" Liu Ang, the young supervisor, was picking up a painter's problem. "Why is this hair bun so high? I said I wanted to have a tall crown, but I didn't say I wanted you to draw a clean bottle on the forehead of the immortal official!"
The painter thought to himself that the man who said that the celestial girl was too thin and the fairy crown was too low was also this guy, but now he has changed his temper. There is such a person pointing fingers at the side, even if the painting saint descends to earth, he will probably have to fold his pen.
Liu Ang became more and more anxious as he spoke. At this time, someone came to report: "Liu Shaojian, Mr. Li and Mr. Jiang are here."
Liu Ang then breathed a sigh of relief, left Baibi and met Li Chan and the others from afar.
"Mr. Li is finally here today." Liu Ang said earnestly, "If I rely on my clumsy hands, I am afraid that even if the mural is painted, His Majesty will be furious."
"Liu Shaojian is so exaggerated." Li Chan said, "This mural is a work of the paintings in the prison. Although I am the main writer, I have not done much effort."
Liu Ang said "Oh", "Why should Mr. Li be so humble! I wonder where Mr. Li is going to draw today? The jade dragon is only lacking in scales and beards, so it can be completed."
Li Chan did not answer, but Jiang Ru said, "Liu Shaojian, I have a reluctant request."
Liu Ang smiled and said, "Sir Jiang, but it's okay. As long as I don't want me to ruin this painting, everything is easy to say."
Jiang Ru smiled and said two words: "It's a coincidence."
Liu Ang was stunned and his tongue was knotted, "This...Scholar Jiang, this may not be used..."
"Shaojian Liu, don't worry, I didn't come to ruin the painting." Jiang Ru smiled and looked at the picture of the Lizhu and Jade Dragon on the white wall from afar. "I saw that the mural was more gorgeous than the magnificent, but it lacked a little spirituality."
Liu Ang tentatively said: "What does Master Jiang mean?"
