When the visitor mentioned these five words, Li Hong's whole body trembled, his heart roared, and he suddenly understood as if he was enlightened.
"Tai Sun, you are Tai Sun's son."
In fact, perhaps subconsciously, Li Hong had guessed like this just now. It was just a matter of the Tian family that was deeply taboo, and he did not dare to think about it seriously.
After this statement was revealed, Li Hong suddenly realized that he didn't need to think anymore, he already understood that this was the fighting method between the ancestors and grandchildren of the Tian family.
Grief suddenly emerged in my heart.
Why do you, the Heavenly Family, want to bring trouble to me, a fish in the pond?
"Master Li, many things were not pushed by my master, but my master was forced to do nothing." Xie Hongdao seemed to have seen through his thoughts and said.
Li Hong came out of his grievance, took a look, and found that Xie Hongdao was not in a hurry. He sat down on the chair and just waited with a smile.
Li Hong meditated for a while, then went to the desk, spread out the paper, and after calming down for a while, poured some water on the inkstone with a bamboo tube, took the ink ingot and started grinding it slowly.
Ancient scholars, culturally, focused on the four arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
A regular scholar cannot say that he is proficient, but he must at least be involved in one or two things, and he will not be able to get in touch with anything at all.
Li Hong is a Jinshi. Not only is he good at chess, he also has some talent in painting. Although he is not as good as everyone else, his skills are much better than those of ordinary people selling paintings on the street.
Painting this picture was not a difficult task for him.
But the difficulty lies not in the painting itself, but in what is painted and for whom.
As long as you draw this painting, if the incident comes to light in the future, even if you don't admit that you are a Taisun Party member, you will not be able to escape suspicion based on this painting.
But if he doesn't draw, as a person in the officialdom, he understands very well that he doesn't have to take sides, but naturally there will be no benefits of taking sides. In the future, if the grandson ascends the throne and he is ignorant of current affairs, even if he is not liquidated, he will naturally be sidelined for the rest of his life.
.
"How hard it is to be strong without desire!"
If you are a true gentleman, you can do this, but Li Hong thought about it, but found it difficult to accept it. Seeing the ink getting thicker, for a long time, Li Hong picked up the soft brush and licked the ink until the pen was full, then he picked up the pen on the rice paper and started writing.
painting.
Ink painting is actually not difficult. In a moment, a landscape painting and a sun appear.
Seeing that after Li Hong finished the painting, he just looked down and stopped moving. Xie Hongdao came over to look at the painting at some point. Seeing that it was getting late, he reminded him: "Master Li, you haven't done it yet."
It’s stamped and signed.”
How could Li Hong not know that if he wants to give away calligraphy and painting, he must sign and seal it, but as long as he does this, there will be no changes, and he is definitely a grandson.
Knowing the emperor's attitude towards the grandson, joining the grandson's party at this time would be tantamount to being a direct enemy of the emperor.
Although the grandson is indeed a prince with a title and is not an ordinary prince or prince, who can be easily killed by the emperor, but think about the fact that the prince at the time was also a prince. Didn't he end up miserable, and the princelings also fell with him?
If it hadn't been for the fall of the princelings, he wouldn't have had the luck to be let out so quickly and get a good job. Now it's his turn. It can be seen that this good job is not so easy to get, and he got it at this time!
But I had even painted a picture. If I didn't sign it, I would offend others. Besides, because of the emperor's attitude, I was afraid that I would never have a chance in my life.
But if he takes this step, it will be harder to turn back than to reach the sky. If his grandson fails, Li Hong's face turns pale when he thinks of this, and his legs even tremble slightly.
"Master Li!" Xie Hongdao suddenly laughed: "Heaven and God will take the blame. Think about it carefully."
Li Hong gritted his teeth, hesitated for a long time, and finally wrote his signature on the painting and stamped it.
Just looking at it like this, I felt panicked in my heart, but now that things have come to this, I can only try to think better.
Li Hong picked up the painting and handed it to Xie Hongdao with both hands. When he handed it over, there was not only a hint of worry on his face, but also a bit of pleading in his words: "Please help me more in the future."
"My master may not know Mr. Li's piety." Xie Hongdao looked at the painting, blew on it to dry the ink, then rolled it up and put it away. After saying with a smile, he handed over his hand: "It's late at night.
Then I won’t disturb Mr. Li’s rest.”
Xie Hongdao had just gone out, but he was startled when he saw a circle of servants had gathered outside the study, all holding knives and sticks, and they all looked at him as he pushed the door open with wary expressions.
This did not surprise Xie Hongdao. Li Hongmeng had just asked the boy not to come in. The boy seemed to believe him, but in fact he did not.
The young man must know what his master is like, and he will probably realize it after taking a few steps.
However, looking at these eager servants, Xie Hongdao was not afraid at all.
"Disperse, this is my friend, not a thief." Li Hong followed him out and took a look at this mysterious man's reaction. He became more and more frustrated. He had the grandson behind him. How could he provoke someone like him?
?
Now that things have come to this, it’s better not to make things look ugly.
The servants all looked at Li Hong who followed him out. Li Hong waved his hand to let him go, but looking at his expression, he seemed to have aged ten years after just a short while.
"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will never mislead you." Xie Hongdao bowed his hand towards Li Hong again and strode out.
Li Hong stood silently and watched him go out.
Just hearing the sound of "Hu", Xie Hongdao went out without looking back and arrived at the gate.
It was already foggy outside and everything around was quiet except for an ox cart that was still there, as if waiting for him to come back.
Xie Hongdao was startled for a moment, then walked to the front of the car. The wind blew the car curtain, revealing that the people inside were closing their eyes and concentrating. It was Huidao and Shi Chengyan who were waiting for him.
"Lao Dao, Lao Shi, have you been waiting for me for a long time?" Xie Hongdao asked with a smile.
"Yeah, come up quickly. Although it's spring, it's still cold at night." Huidao said vaguely.
"Okay!" Xie Hongdao raised the car curtain with one hand and was about to get in the car. The next moment, the light of the knife flashed and the sound of the sharp blade breaking through the wind was horrifying.
"Ah..." A scream came out, the sword was fast and accurate, and it directly stabbed the nearest Hui Dao, with a "pop" sound, and went straight in.
"Ah!" There was another shrill scream, and the person who was stabbed appeared in the next moment, but it was a demon, looking like a dog but not a dog, with red eyes, but Shi Chengyan was completely invisible.
Hongtong screamed, shocked and angry: "Impossible, how could you see through my deception!"
How can this be!
"Idiot, I have been with Mr. Xie for ten years, and I have learned a lot of skills no matter what. How dare you use this kind of trick on me?"
"Besides, no matter what, Hui Dao is a real person and Shi Chengyan is an official. How can I call him Lao Dao Lao Shi? This is something only found in the market."
"You confirmed my suspicion without refuting it."
Saying that, Xie Hongdao stirred hard, and the demon was stabbed in the vital part with a knife. Being stirred, he vomited blood instantly and died immediately.
"Die!" Xie Hongdao pulled out his knife and suddenly stabbed him with his backhand.
The light of the knife rushed in and stabbed the cow pulling the cart!
