Not only "Misty Rain and Crow Clothes Alley", Tai Zicang took out three more calligraphy and paintings. When the scroll was opened, they were all written by Tang Xiangsi.
Tang Xiangsi's personal style is too strong, which is not only reflected in his handwriting and painting skills, but also in his writing and painting structure.
But unfortunately, Tai Zicang said that he had never met Tang Xiangsi.
Xia Zhaoyi asked if any other acquaintances had seen him, and Tai Zicang shook his head. Most of the people who had seen Tang Xiangsi had passed away.
There were rare times when Xia Zhaoyi was unwilling to give in. He lowered his eyes and looked back at the calligraphy and painting, feeling an indescribable feeling of loss.
"Miss Ah Li, what's the connection between you and him?" Tai Zicang was curious.
"I don't know," Xia Zhaoyi said softly, "It seems like it is, but it seems like it isn't."
"It seems to be there, if not?"
This feeling was really subtle, and Xia Zhaoyi really didn't know how to deal with it.
This should be called fate, so in the past few years, she has been related to him everywhere, and there is a deep destiny between her and him.
Or maybe, because he has been wandering around the world and leaving many traces in his life, she only recognized him because he paid attention to him.
No matter what, she really wanted to find him, really wanted to find him.
Tai Zicang saw her slightly lost look, thought for a while, and said: "Miss Ali, I will give you this painting "Fragrance Chasing the Evening Breeze"."
Xia Zhaoyi paused and looked up at him.
The girl's eyes are really clear and her aura is compelling. Tai Zicang, who focuses on studying the portraits, really likes her.
He raised his hand and bowed: "Miss Ali, please accept it. I will also help you keep an eye on my uncle. If there is any news, I will definitely let you know."
"Sir," Xia Zhaoyi said seriously, "please just pay attention and don't take the initiative to look for it."
"Why is this?"
"I can't tell you the reason. Sir, just remember and pay attention if you encounter him. Don't take the initiative to ask anyone about it."
Tai Zicang frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Okay..."
Xia Zhaoyi looked back at the calligraphy and painting, and for some reason, she always had a strong feeling that she would definitely meet him.

The dawn appeared, the sky and the earth were light and white, and the wind in the sky was too strong, causing the clouds to look like floating flowers and waves, filling the eyes with gorgeous colors.
The sound of hoofbeats of a team of horses broke the silence of Hengxiang. The horse team entering the city passed through Tonglin Long Street and stopped in front of Ning'an Tower.
The guys sweeping the floor in front of the door stopped and looked up at the visitor.
In these years of working in Ning'an Building, I have met too many people who come to flatter Zhao Ning, so these guys have developed a sense of arrogance and disdain for many powerful and wealthy people.
But this group of people seemed to be different. There were more than 30 people who were dusty. Although they were simply dressed, their bearing and spirit made the guys immediately confirm that they were soldiers, and they were soldiers who had been on the battlefield.
The clerk closest to the side door quietly went back to Ning'an Building. When he met Manager Chu who was passing by with a ledger, he hurriedly stepped forward to explain the situation outside.
Manager Chu went to the window, but saw that the visitor was already walking towards the door. He was about to tell the boy to call some thugs, but he looked at the leader of the man intently.
He looked familiar. He was a bit more elegant and his skin was paler than those behind him.
"That's wrong," Manager Chu frowned, "This person is..."
A name comes to my lips, but I can't say it out loud, but I can tell that it's a friend, not an enemy.
"I'll go find the eldest lady," Manager Chu said, "You go and entertain her."
The waiter answered the call and then finished, when he heard confusion from the other side: "What? Who is the military master? Me?"
It was okay not to say anything. As soon as he made a sound, Steward Chu recognized him instantly: "Du Xuan! You are Steward Du!"
Du Xuan turned his head when he heard the sound and said happily: "Manager Chu!"
"Oh, it's really Steward Du!" Steward Chu smiled happily and strode forward hurriedly, "Why are Steward Du here? I haven't seen you for many years, Steward Du!!"
Du Xuan laughed loudly and came over to reminisce with him.
Speaking of which, the two of them were not very familiar. The reason why Manager Chu was deeply impressed by him was because on the day Zhao Ning was assassinated by the Northerners in the capital, Du Xuan and Song Qingtang had a crazy fight in the lobby downstairs.
An hour of mouth.
Song Qingtang was obviously a neat military commander who talked a lot, not to mention Du Xuan. Manager Chu listened to it for a long time and was really profound.
After some pleasantries, Manager Chu ordered the guys to quickly entertain the distinguished guests, and also invited all the men who were accompanying them to entertain them, and prepared all the good wine and food. He led Du Xuan upstairs, but Zhao Ning still
She is sleeping and needs to wake her up.
While going upstairs, Manager Chu looked at Du Xuan carefully and couldn't help but sigh: "When I met Manager Du, he was an upright scholar in a long gown, but now he has been tempered to a certain degree, eh."
"...Vicissitudes of life?" Du Xuan was stunned and raised his hand to touch his face, "Have I become ugly?"
"No, no, more manly, more manly!" Manager Chu said hurriedly.
duty
Among them, my appearance is not bad."
"Yes, yes," Manager Chu nodded, "Manager Du is not wrong."
Du Xuan felt a little heavy and was speechless.
The study next to Zhao Ning's master bedroom is very spacious. Guan Chu served the best Mingqian Longjing. Du Xuan drank while waiting and raised his eyes to look around. With this magnificent decoration, he wanted to see it in Shen Lie Muzhou's shop.
Get one here too.
After waiting for a while, Du Xuan heard the sound of footsteps, looked up, and then stood up: "I have met Mrs. Zhao."
Zhao Ning's face was covered with a long gauze, she was dressed in a blue satin dress, and her hair was lightly pulled back with a wooden hairpin. Her simple and peaceful appearance was slightly different from that of this luxurious study.
"Guanshi Du," Zhao Ning said quickly, "sit down."
Du Xuan took out a letter from his arms and said with a smile: "Thank you, madam, for sending someone to send the letter. The young master received it when he was visiting the state. He was really happy."
Zhao Ning nodded and asked with concern: "I heard something about Drunken Deer, how are Mr. Shen doing?"
Du Xuan smiled, did not accept the words, and said: "The young master cares about Miss Ali. After receiving the letter, he discussed with me and decided to ask me to go to Youzhou to see if I can help. After this,
I brought some gifts to thank Mrs. Zhao for the convenience of doing business in the past few years. This is the gift list."
Zhao Ning did not rely on false hope and looked at Yiqiu.
Yiqiu went up to pick her up: "Thank you very much, Manager Du."
Zhao Ning watched Yi Qiu come back, paused, and said: "Manager Du, please forgive me for being meddlesome and overstepping. I still want to ask, what are Mr. Shen's plans for the future...?"
Yiqiu put the gift list on the desk, turned around and pricked up her ears.
It was also in this study room that Yiqiu clearly remembered the conversation between the eldest lady and Miss A Li.
Although the eldest lady likes Mr. Shen, she is not optimistic about Mr. Shen. This kind of disapproval is full of regret.
Now that the eldest lady heard it, Yi Qiu couldn't help but look at Du Xuan.
