I Rely on Beauty to Stabilize the Country - Chap 135
After the morning court session the next day, Chu Wei requested an order to enter the Xuanzheng Hall.
He was wearing an official robe and holding a scroll of paintings in a cloth belt. Accompanying him was an official from Yushitai. This official had always been obsessed with Li Qingyun’s paintings and knew a lot about them. He was invited by Tian Fusheng to see if the two paintings above and below were both authentic and could be integrated into one.
Today is a rainy day, so there will be some moisture in the painting, causing the paper to wrinkle slightly. The painting in the emperor’s treasury was already placed on the document. The official’s eyes lit up and he kept looking at the painting.
Gu Yuanbai smiled and joked: “Wan Qing’s look is as if it will set Li Qingyun’s painting on fire.”
Lord Wan smiled cautiously and saluted with Chu Wei. After getting up, Chu Wei handed the cloth belt in his arms to the eunuch.
The upper and lower volumes of “A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains” are finally put together.
Gu Yuanbai took one look at it and couldn’t help but laugh: “Chu Qing, your painting must be fake.”
Although he didn’t understand painting, he could at least tell the newness of the painting. If it looked at it alone, it didn’t seem like much. But when the two paintings were put together, the difference between the old and the new suddenly became bigger.
Chu Wei’s lips parted, and finally he straightened his lips and looked down at the paintings on the table.
He looked a little disappointed.
Master Wan suddenly said “Hey” and moved closer to look at Chu Wei’s painting, “Your Majesty, this is really strange. Although it is different from the old and new, the brushstrokes and the direction of the landscape in this painting are all Li Qingyun’s painting habits. No. Looking at the old and new, just looking at the painting, it seems like it was really painted by Li Qingyun.”
Gu Yuanbai was stunned, the tip of his nose wrinkled slightly, “Seriously?”
Master Wan did not dare to finish the painting, “I will take another look.”
It was a rainy day and there was no sunlight. The more Master Wan looked at it, the more similar it became, and the weirder he felt in his heart. He connected the upper and lower pictures together, and look, there was no gap in the disconnected parts, and every part was rolled together with the previous one. If this was not a painting, how could the imitator do it? ?
Is it possible that just by relying on the lower half of the scroll, we can match the upper half of the scroll without any mistakes?
“It’s so similar,” Master Wan sighed. “Even if I knew it was an imitation painting, I wouldn’t dare say there was any difference in the painting.”
Gu Yuanbai’s eyes twitched, “Interesting.”
He stepped forward and Master Wan stepped back. The Holy Master bent down and looked at the painting presented by Chu Wei.
Chu Wei was looking at His Majesty.
Gu Yuanbai’s black hair lingered on his back. Every time he moved slightly, the few strands of hair on the edge became more dangerous.
If it hangs down, will it sweep onto Chu Wei’s painting?
If you sweep it, you may get a corner of the ink that has been stained by rain moisture.
As soon as Chu Wei finished his thoughts, the Holy Master’s hair slipped from both sides. Chu Wei subconsciously stepped forward quickly and caught the hair in time before it touched the painting.
The Sage’s eyes fell on him. Chu Wei was a gentleman like jade. He said calmly and calmly: “I don’t know how many people have passed this painting. It’s better not to touch the Sage.”
Gu Yuanbai smiled, straightened up, and patted Chu Wei’s arm, “Chu Qing is careful.”
The black hair also moved away from Chu Wei’s hand.
Chu Wei retracted his hand, a slight smile rose in his eyes, “I don’t dare.”

Although this painting is fake, the content in the painting seems to be real. Gu Yuanbai’s interest was aroused, and he asked Chu Wei to keep the painting, and if he met the person who sold him the painting next time, he would report it in time.
And not long after, General Xue returned to Beijing.
He went to the palace to discuss business with Gu Yuanbai, and the border trade was carried out very smoothly. Zhang had been preparing for the trade route for a long time. They were well-established in the trading business, so the mutual trade they made was capable of everything they wanted. What, it greatly aroused the interest and enthusiasm of the nomads in the mutual market.
The enthusiasm was reflected in the fact that horses brought from northern Xinjiang were sent to the army in batches. Some of the cattle and sheep from northern Xinjiang were sold to the south, and some were sent to the military camps to add meat to the soldiers.
In addition to the horses previously sent by Xixia, the army can form an additional 10,000 cavalry. Among the cavalry, the equipment and training methods of the heavy cavalry are also constantly improving. There is no shortage of food, and sufficient meat, fruits and vegetables can be fed. A sufficiently strong and powerful physique.
Once so many cattle and sheep joined the army, the soldiers’ respect and love for Gu Yuanbai reached a new level. They know life is good and bad, and they have never experienced such a life of meat and rice before they became soldiers.
In the whole world, only Da Heng can do better after becoming a soldier than before becoming a soldier.
The army is so important. After Gu Yuanbai asked about the cattle, sheep and horses, he also asked about the border guards. General Xue was filled with emotion and couldn’t help but add another sentence: “When I led the troops to garrison in Northern Xinjiang, the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang He was as skinny as a stick, and the people in northern Xinjiang were even more frightened, and could not sleep well. But when I returned to Beijing this time,” he couldn’t help but smile, “the people walked across the road to see me off, and shed tears for ten miles to send them to me and my fellow soldiers. There are so many things that we can’t even carry them.”
“There are also soldiers in Northern Xinjiang,” General Xue couldn’t help but his eyes were sore. “Last year, there was continuous heavy snow, and several houses in Northern Xinjiang collapsed. Soldiers went to rescue people overnight to clear the snow. It snowed for dozens of days, and the roads were blocked. It was closed, but no one among the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang froze to death.”
“We drank old duck soup and wrapped ourselves in the cotton clothes you gave us, and spent the whole winter safely.”
Gu Yuanbai felt warm in his heart when he said it. He smiled and suddenly said sincerely: “This is what I want to see most in my life.”

to the scene. ”
“There are tens of thousands of mansions in Guangzhou,” the Holy Master whispered, “the great shelter will make all the poor people in the world happy.”
As soon as these words came out, General Xue burst into tears.

General Xue left the capital with tears in his eyes all the way. The Holy Emperor specifically asked Xue Yuan to accompany him back home. Xue Yuan glanced at Old General Xue and felt a headache, “General Xue, can you stop crying?”
General Xue’s sleeves were already wet with tears, “Your Majesty, this is so good. Your Majesty, this is so good.”
A smile appeared on Xue Yuan’s face, “It’s natural, Your Majesty.”
It was not until General Xue returned home that the excitement and emotion in his chest gradually calmed down. He cried in front of his son for so long, and he felt a little embarrassed, so he coughed and said, “In a while, you will be twenty-five I’m almost 30 years old, Xue Yuan, when can you get me a wife for you?”
Xue Yuan thought carefully: “It’s difficult.”
“Both your mother and I know that you already have a sweetheart,” General Xue sighed, thinking that he didn’t want to say more. “Your father had you when he was twenty years old, and two years later, Brother Lin was born. Now I have Even in his forties, he didn’t even have a grandchild.”
Xue Yuan said lazily: “It’s simple. Tomorrow I will find a few girls who are willing to give birth to children for Xue Er, and lock them with Xue Er. Whenever they are pregnant, they will come out of the room.”
“You already have a sweetheart, why doesn’t your sweetheart give me a grandson?” Old General Xue said with a serious look on his face, greatly dissatisfied, “Don’t tell me, you useless bastard, you haven’t gotten someone to agree to marry you yet?”
“I can’t give birth,” Xue Yuan told the truth, “and it’s true that he hasn’t agreed to marry me yet.”
She may never agree to marry him, and it seems that the Xue family…can’t afford to support the Holy Lord.
General Xue’s face darkened, “Since I don’t want to marry you, don’t give me any more thought! When I get back home, I’ll ask your mother to arrange a marriage for you.”
Xue Yuan’s expression did not change, “General Xue, I won’t do it.”
Old General Xue couldn’t hold back his anger and yelled: “If you don’t do it, why did you wash your pants for half a month in Northern Xinjiang! Xue Jiuyao, you have grown up, why do you still do it for someone who doesn’t like you? You can even say this to a woman who can’t give birth to a child!”
This roar startled the servants who were waiting to welcome the master back home.
Mrs. Xue happened to hear this sentence when she arrived. Her expression suddenly changed. She drove the servants away and stepped forward, “What’s going on?”
“Look at your good son,” Old General Xue said, his hands trembling with anger, “He can actually say such stupid things for the sake of a woman!”
Mrs. Xue was startled, and then looked at Xue Yuan.
Xue Yuan grinned, “Old father, who told you that I was a woman?”
General Xue was startled.
Xue Yuan stretched his body, thinking about what family tricks he would have in the future and whether he could protect his back. “My sweetheart is a man, so naturally I can’t give you a grandchild. I think Xue Er is good, you Don’t you want grandchildren? Let Xue Er give birth to ten or eight, and you can afford them.”
General Xue looked at him solemnly and said repressedly: “Say it again.”
The veteran’s expression was truly filled with anger.
Mrs. Xue had tears in her eyes and looked at her son worriedly.
The last time General Xue was so angry, he beat Mr. Xue half to death.
Xue Yuan clicked his tongue.
He said calmly and calmly: “General Xue, I’m going to say this for the last time. You must listen carefully.”
He raised his eyes and said, “If I fall in love with a man, it must be him. I can’t lift up anyone other than him.”

On the second day, Xue Yuan did not enter the palace.
Gu Yuanbai had already expected it, but when he occasionally called someone, he still subconsciously shouted: “Xue Yuan.”
At noon, Tian Fusheng waited on His Majesty to fall asleep. He hesitated for a long time before finally speaking in a low voice, “Your Majesty, when I was sending the imperial doctor away the night before yesterday, I happened to meet Mr. Xue on my way back. I was at the corner, I heard a few conversations between Mr. Xue and the imperial doctors.”
Gu Yuanbai closed his eyes and took a long breath, “Huh?”
“Mr.
He originally thought that the Holy One would frown or become angry, but the Holy One unexpectedly raised his lips and asked, “What did the imperial doctor say?”
Tian Fusheng choked and said obediently: “The imperial doctor said that you can have sex in half a month.”
“Half a month,” Gu Yuanbai chuckled, “I remember.”
Tian Fusheng looked strange, “Master Xue said so too.”
How come the Holy Spirit is so connected with Master Xue?
Gu Yuanbai burst into laughter.
He fell asleep with such a happy mood. When he woke up, Tian Fusheng told him that the people buried in Xue Mansion came to report that Xue Yuan was used by General Xue last night and was already in the ancestral hall. He was detained all night with injuries.
As soon as Tian Fusheng finished speaking, Gu Yuanbai’s face turned cold. His face was ugly and his eyes were dark. Tian Fusheng was trembling, “Your Majesty?”
“Prepare your horses,” Gu Yuanbai said coldly after a while, “go to Xue Mansion.”
