Chapter 182: Innocence(2/2)
"What?" Yuan Menkun's first reaction was that he was cheated again.
Qin Lang winked at Gu Xiefei. Gu Xiefei went to get paper and pen, knowing that he could not carry so much gold with him, so he asked him to write an IOU first. Qin Lang did not bargain with Yuan Menkun, and gold was second, mainly to use this matter to slap these Jinlin Guards in the face. As long as he was hitting him, the instigator behind him would naturally jump out.
Yuan Menkun was worried that they would expose the matter, so he could only swallow his anger and wrote an IOU. He was too scrupulous and said that he would not agree to write a vase that was broken. He insisted on writing a vase that broke the vase that he had broken, and agreed to compensate Qin Lang for one hundred taels of gold, and send it to the mansion within three days, otherwise it would increase by five taels every day.
Qin Lang asked him to sign and seal the secret. Although a group of Jinlin Guards knew that Yuan Menkun had been cheated, no one dared to speak out. After all, they threw the vase rewarded by the empress dowager. If they were stabbed out, they might be beheaded.
Yuan Menkun touched his whole body with only one or two gold pounds. He left it to show sincerity. Qin Lang refused to let the Jin Scale Guards leave all the weapons, when will the gold be sent and when will the weapons be returned to them.
Yuan Menkun was so cowardly in his heart. A group of people came to search, but they didn't pick up Qin Lang's fault. Instead, they paid 100 taels of gold and had to leave the weapon to mortgage. There were not many people as cowardly as them in the Jinlin Guard in history.
Yuan Menkun left with a group of golden-scale guards in shame. Gu Xiefei closed the courtyard gate and asked curiously: "Wouldn't it be troublesome if you fell down the vase rewarded by the Queen Mother?"
Qin Lang smiled and said, "When did the Empress Dowager reward me with a vase? This vase was bought by Xixi at the porcelain shop two days ago for a tael of silver."
Gu Xiefei laughed so hard that tears were about to flow out: "Qin Lang, you are so bad... haha... deserve it..."
Qin Lang handed Yuan Menkun’s IOU to Gu Xiefei, but Yuan Menkun was fooled by his cleverness. The black and white words on it state that compensation for the vase was 100 taels of gold, and there was nothing wrong with it.
At this time, someone came to knock on the door. Qin Lang thought that the group of Jinlin Guards were coming back. When he opened the door, he saw that it was the eunuch in the palace. The little eunuch was named Xiao Jinzi, the one sent by An Gaoqiu to report the news last time. Xiao Jinzi came here today and specially invited Qin Lang to the palace, saying that the empress dowager asked him to enter the palace for important matters.
Qin Lang really couldn't think of any important matters that the Empress Dowager Xiao Zirong could discuss with him, because the matter of Prince Qing had not yet been specifically resulted, and he thought to himself that meeting Xiao Zirong might not be a bad thing, and perhaps he could persuade her to show mercy?
Qin Lang explained to Gu Xiefei and quickly followed Xiao Jinzi into the palace.
When he got into the carriage in the palace, the carriage was closed throughout the journey and the curtains were also dropped. Xiao Jinzi reminded Qin Lang that he should not open the curtains without authorization, and he should not look around, especially when entering the palace.
Qin Lang knew that there were many rules in the palace, but in fact he couldn't see it. The carriage was almost completely closed, with only a large piece of green glass embedded in the roof. The skylight penetrated through the glass. Qin Lang secretly complained, which brainless craftsman designed this carriage? Isn't the passengers pressing the top of the car?
After about half an hour, he finally arrived at the destination. The carriage stopped. The little eunuch opened the car door from outside. For lunch, Qin Lang was busy working on Prince Qing today. Before he could eat, he was a little hungry at this time. He smelled the rich aroma of meat in the air, and hunger was even more ignited in his belly.
An Gaoqiu greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Qin is here?"
Qin Lang said: "Eunuch An is auspicious, I wonder what the Empress Dowager has to ask me for?"
An Gaoqiu said, "It was the emperor who saw you painted a portrait of the empress dowager. He couldn't let go of his love and held him when he was sleeping. The empress dowager ordered you to enter the palace and the pope's painting technique."
Qin Lang secretly scolded Xiao Zirong, this old lady, who had a good time. She had just started to deal with her father-in-law and disturbed her wedding. Now she still had the face to teach her stupid son to draw. She cursed in her heart, and on the surface she pretended to be very respectful and asked Empress Dowager An Gaoqiu if she was there?
An Gaoqiu shook his head. The Empress Dowager was resting, so she should not disturb her. She took Qin Lang into the imperial study room. Before she could enter the imperial study room, she heard a loud cry.
Qin Langxun looked at him and saw a fat man in his teens rolling on the ground. It is not difficult to infer from the dragon robe he was wearing that this is Long Shixiang, the emperor of Dayong today.
Four little eunuchs knelt next to Long Shixiang and tried their best to persuade him one by one, but somehow he annoyed Long Shixiang. He kicked a little eunuch out with one kick, but he was quite strong.
An Gaoqiu signaled Qin Lang to kneel down for the little emperor: "Long live my humble minister Qin Lang!"
Long Shixiang cried loudly without hearing it, but he didn't see a single tear on his face as big as a full moon.
An Gaoqiu was also at a loss. He drove all the other eunuchs out, came to the little emperor to kneel down, and laughed with him: "Your Majesty, see who is here..."
Before he finished speaking, the little emperor raised his chubby fist and shone his face with a punch, which made An Gaoqiu's right eye blue. An Gaoqiu covered his eyes and shouted, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty,..."
The little emperor was stunned again, grabbed the incense burner on the ground and smashed it to An Gaoqiu's head. Qin Lang saw that it was so great. If the incense burner was cast in pure gold, it would be a bad idea to open a skylight.
Qin Lang had quick eyes and quick hands, and held the little emperor's wrist with a clang, and the incense burner fell to the ground.
An Gaoqiu panicked: "Don't be rude to Your Majesty..." He also knew that Qin Lang was trying to save him, so of course he did not dare to speak out.
Qin Lang grabbed the incense burner and pinched it with his hand. The incense burner was pinched into a ball by him and shook it in front of the little emperor. Unexpectedly, the little emperor laughed: "It's fun... it's fun..."
He got up and took another gilded incense burner. Qin Lang thought that this fool was going to smash him, but he didn't expect that the little emperor would pinch it as if he was like him. The incense burner did not move at all. The little emperor handed the incense burner to Qin Lang.
Qin Lang understood what this silly boy meant. This time he used his hands to squeeze the incense burner flat, and the little emperor was so happy that he jumped and jumped.
An Gaoqiu knew that the little emperor was a fool, so he was not surprised by any of his behavior. He felt really sad. Since this little fool became the emperor, An Gaoqiu was beaten several times by him for no reason. So if the empress dowager asked him to come over, he would try his best to avoid this stupid boy.
Qin Lang said: "Your Majesty, can I teach you how to draw?"
When the little emperor heard the words of painting, his eyes lit up and nodded repeatedly: "So ah, so ah!"
Qin Lang saw that there was a door, at least this silly boy could understand some people's words. When he came to the painting table that had been prepared, Qin Lang picked up the brush and remembered An Gaoqiu that the silly emperor could not put down the portrait of the empress dowager, which means that he liked comics.
Qin Lang looked at An Gaoqiu, and outlined An Gaoqiu's appearance in just a few strokes.
When the little emperor saw Qin Lang painted a painting so quickly, he actually recognized that the person in the painting was An Gaoqiu, and pointed at An Gaoqiu and kept smiling.
When Qin Lang saw that this little emperor was a low-powered person with incomplete intelligence, he sighed in his heart that it was a huge joke to leave Da Yong's country to such a person to govern.
The little emperor picked up the brush and drew a circle on the portrait Qin Lang painted, but this was added because he saw An Gaoqiu's right eye blue.
Qin Lang praised: "Your Majesty is so smart."
An Gaoqiu sighed in his heart, "What a cleverness, I'm just a fool. I haven't served such a stupid emperor for decades after entering the palace.
However, An Gaoqiu soon discovered that the Empress Dowager chose Qin Lang to teach the little emperor to draw. Unlike other masters in the painting world, Qin Lang painted the paintings vivid and interesting, and simple and easy to learn. The little emperor's mental retardation could even follow him to draw a cat and a tiger.
The little emperor was greedy and became hungry after drawing for a while. He went to the plate next to him and picked up a chicken leg and chewed it.
Qin Lang smelled the scent of chicken legs and couldn't help but take a look. The fat man was eating oily and enjoying himself.
Qin Lang thought to himself that this kid had insufficient IQ. During the process of teaching him, I could have taken some private goods, found a piece of white paper, and quickly drew a portrait on the white paper.
The little emperor came to see it.
An Gaoqiu looked at it clearly. Qin Lang painted it as Long Shixing, the prince of Qing, and was extremely nervous. If the empress dowager knew that Qin Lang painted Qing, he would probably be punished.
Qin Lang pointed at Long Shixing and said to the little emperor: "No sin!"
