"Mr. Chang'an County, although it is inappropriate for me to say this, I still want to ask if you can take a position in the Ministry of Punishment?"
"Take a temporary job?"
"Yes. I have seen the portrait you painted, and then looked at the portrait painted by the painter we hired. It is simply unreadable." Zuo Sen said, "You don't know, there are many things happening every year that cause criminals to escape because the portraits don't look like them. Most of them
The criminal was never found in the end."
He Yunxi also saw the portraits painted by the painters of Dali Temple in the morning. I can't say they are completely different. I can only say that they are about 60 or 70% similar. Moreover, it is very troublesome to draw with a brush. If you make a mistake, you have to redraw it. There is no way.
Revise.
And sketched portraits are easier to identify.
He had already seen how good he was at sketching and portrait painting, and his eyes looked at He Yunxi with a little fanaticism.
With her, it is not easy to find someone!
"I'm sorry, I don't intend to take a temporary job." He Yunxi refused.
There is so much to draw today, how can I do it all by myself?
And she has so many things to do that she can't just paint all day long.
Her refusal was expected by Zuo Sen and Luo Zixi. They had discussed this matter before coming and concluded that He Yunxi would not agree. After all, she is not a man and cannot be directly awarded an official position. And her status is very special.
, cannot be directly forced.
Although they knew the result, they were still a little disappointed when they heard her rejection.
I just hope that when I come to ask for help in the future, she can help and agree.
"but--"
As soon as He Yunxi said this, the two people's eyes immediately turned hot when they looked at her.
Lu Yan, who had just come in, frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
The look in these two people's eyes was really like that of a monster seeing its prey.
What do the future Minister of Dali Temple and the future Minister of the Ministry of Punishment want to do by staring at his wife like this?
He Yunxi was startled by these two people, but he could understand their mood.
When Luo Zixi and Zuo Sen saw Lu Yan coming in, they didn't immediately ask He Yunxi what was behind the word "but".
Lu Yan came over and saluted the two of them: "I have met Mr. Luo and Mr. Zuo."
"Master Lu is back." Luo Zixi responded, and Zuo Sen had already looked at He Yunxi.
"Mr. Chang'an County, what couldn't you say just now?"
"This sketch is indeed helpful to you..."
"Yes, yes, this is of great help." Zuo Sen nodded in agreement and looked at her eagerly.
So don’t you really think about taking a temporary job or something?
"One person's skills are short, but everyone's skills are great. There are so many places in the country, and I can do too little by myself. I just don't sleep, I don't draw much in a day, and I can only stay in one place. However, if I can
There are many painters of this kind of sketch and portrait painting, and if they can be assigned to various places, that can really improve the current situation." He Yunxi expressed his opinion.
"Indeed, it is impossible to report all local cases, and time and distance do not allow it." Luo Zixi agreed, "If there are such painters in various places, it will indeed be much more convenient."
"Mr. Chang'an County, do you mean that you are willing to pass on this sketching skill to others?" Zuo Sen asked uncertainly.
He felt in his heart that such words were great, but he also felt that if it were his own words, he might not have such courage.
He Yunxi nodded: "You can choose some people to come to me, and I can teach them some sketching knowledge every day. When they finish learning, they can work for the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment. If there are many people, they can be assigned to places.
"
"That's great!" Zuo Sen was so excited that he bowed and saluted He Yunxi, "The county magistrate is righteous!"
He Yunxi waved his hand: "This is nothing, I just want to contribute a little bit to the Liang Kingdom."
Luo Zixi was also very excited, admiring He Yunxi's ambition and courage, and asked: "What are the conditions for selecting painters? Do they all need to be painters?"
He Yunxi thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter whether you have painting skills or not. It's best if your family situation is relatively simple. After all, you may be assigned to a place in the future."
"Let's talk about whether the place is right or not. Please help our Criminal Department satisfy the painter first. Sometimes we really feel bald."
"How many painters does your criminal department need?"
"At least three, right?" Zuo Sen said, "Our Criminal Department sometimes has to deal with local cases, and the painter usually goes with us. Sometimes three are not enough, how about five?"
"Five..."
"Is it too much?" Zuo Sen felt that he was a bit open-mouthed, and felt a little guilty in his heart.
It's just a drop in the bucket, and those who deserve it will still want it.
"Five is not much, it's easy." He Yunxi said.
"Five is not that much? Is it really possible?" Zuo Sen spoke so excitedly that his voice broke.
He thought that the five of them were like a lion, but didn't he expect that they were a piece of cake?
If he had known earlier, he would have asked for two more people.
"I can open a class and gather all the people who want to learn together to teach together. When the time comes, teaching one is also teaching, and teaching ten is also teaching." He Yunxi said, "Thirty, let's control the number within thirty.
You should be able to teach them well.”
Thirty!
Zuo Sen was already imagining that when the time came, the Ministry of Punishment would leave five and distribute the remaining twenty dozen to local governments, so that each government would be assigned at least one person.
And those thirty people can still teach disciples when they have time in the future. Maybe it will be popularized in Lianzhou and counties in the future!
It’s so exciting to think about it!
Luo Zixi knew that this might change the future crime situation in Daliang, so he took Zuo Sen into the palace with him and told Emperor Wen of Jin about this matter.
After hearing this, Emperor Wen of Jin felt that He Yunxi would do this.
Although she knows a lot that others don't know, she never hides it and teaches others generously.
The fermented bean curd and bean curd in Yanjiang County are now famous throughout the country. The method of increasing corn yield is now being put into practice by Sinong. The suturing technique that military doctors learned from her has become famous in the army.
She was also willing to teach others about painting, and Emperor Wen of Jin was not surprised at all after hearing this.
He had seen He Yunxi's sketch skills with his own eyes. If her skill was promoted, it would definitely be good for the Liang Kingdom.
So Emperor Wen of Jin waved his hand and gave her a bunch of rewards.
He Yunxi just thought that she could do something about it and didn't think about getting any benefits. But the emperor had already rewarded her, so she wouldn't mind if there were too many things.
But looking at the treasures in those boxes, she knew that part of them were the emperor's comfort to her, to appease the hurt and grievances she had suffered from Concubine Ji and the Sixth Princess.
He Yunxi, who had been defeated once, said: Such hurt and grievance can be dealt with again. Really, she won't mind it.
