Liu Heng grinned and said: "This can be regarded as catching Wu Xian's seven inches. Can't he not take the bait?"
"Of course!"
"Can you please stop being so arrogant when you talk to me?"
"I am a scholar..."
"There are no good people among scholars. From now on, when the two of us hang out together, you must never call yourself a scholar."
Kou Ji looked sideways and said in astonishment: "You yourself are ignorant and do not seek to make progress, and you want to drag me with you without seeking to make progress?"
Kou Ji straightened his chest and said proudly: "I want to be the number one scholar."
Liu Heng rolled his eyes, curled his lips disdainfully and said, "You can pull him down. Now that Ding Wei is in control of the government, his power is overwhelming. He and your grandfather are incompatible with each other. As long as he stays in court for a day, you can't even think about getting the number one scholar."
"Don't even think about becoming a Jinshi..."
Kou Ji asked suspiciously: "Is there no one who can cure Ding Wei?"
He knew that Ding Wei was powerful, but he didn't think that Ding Wei could cover the sky with one hand.
Liu Heng looked Kou Ji up and down, then curled his lips and said, "My aunt is okay, but she is also incompatible with your grandfather. Just give up and just be a playboy and a prodigal son with me."
Kou Ji didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked: "My grandfather is the prime minister after all, and he also has many people in his hands..."
Liu Heng slumped on the chair and hummed: "In a fight between three tigers, two against one, do you think your grandfather can win?"
Kou Ji pondered: "Is there no chance to turn over?"
Liu Heng looked at Kou Ji strangely, "Are you asking me for advice?"
Kou Ji was stunned and said with a smile: "You can think so."
Liu Heng hesitated for a moment and said lazily: "Unless the Guan family can return to its original state...Although the Guan family hates your grandfather, the one they recognize most in their hearts is your grandfather."
In order to win Kou Ji's trust, Liu Heng added, "My aunt said this."
Kou Ji nodded slowly, "Since it is what the Queen said, it cannot be wrong."
Kou Ji said this, but he sighed deeply in his heart.
Placing the rise and fall of the Kou family on the official Zhao Heng is obviously a bit of a trust.
Others don't know, but Kou Ji knows that Kou Zhun was tricked to death by the official Zhao Heng in the history books.
There is no hope that Zhao Heng's body will recover as before.
Zhao Heng has been cultivating immortality for more than ten years and has also been taking elixirs for more than ten years.
His whole person has long since become a poisonous person, his flesh and blood is filled with lead, and he is close to death.
Even if the Great Luo Immortal descends to earth, he may not be able to save him.
Zhao Heng has no hope. If the Kou family wants to survive this power struggle with the replacement of the old and new emperors, they can only find another way out.
For a moment, Kou Ji felt that he had a long way to go.
…
During the conversation between Kou Ji and Liu Heng, an hour passed quietly.
A new "Spring Play" appeared in Kou Ji's pen.
Liu Heng looked at the brand new "Spring Play" on the table, clicked his lips, and said in wonder: "I didn't expect you to have such a skill. The imitation of this painting is both beautiful and beautiful, but..."
Kou Ji put down the pen, washed his hands, and said with a smile: "The ink is not dry yet, so it is naturally a little different. After baking and drying in the shade, it will definitely be exactly the same."
"Then what are you waiting for? Don't bake it yet, just dry it in the shade."
Without waiting for Kou Ji to say anything, Liu Heng turned around and called the restaurant owner to prepare the stove and the rack for drying in the shade.
Wait until things are ready.
Kou Ji took it upon himself to dry the ink on the painting.
When it was 70% dry, Kou Ji found a moist place, set up the painting, and let it dry in the shade.
Liu Heng seems to have a great interest in counterfeiting methods. He follows Kou Ji from beginning to end in everything he does.
In the end, I stayed beside the new "Spring Exploration" and watched it dry in the dark.
Kou Ji knew that what Liu Heng was interested in was not the painting, nor the skill of forgery.
What he is really interested in is the benefits that counterfeiting can bring.
Kou Ji finished painting "Spring Play" and did not stop. He was ready to continue painting.
However, before he started painting again, he first asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant to arrange a room for Erbao and Mr. Kou to stay in each of them.
"I want to accompany the young master..."
Erbao refused and stubbornly refused to go to the guest room, and looked helplessly at Kou Ji pretending to be pitiful.
Kou Ji stared at him and said with a half-smile, "If you don't obey me, your rations for tomorrow will be deducted."
When Erbao heard this, he immediately ran to the guest room in fright.
Chief Kou didn't say anything, but just reminded Kou Ji to call him tomorrow.
After seeing off the second treasure, and with the governor of Kou following him, Kou Ji returned to the painting table again.
Kou Ji felt a little sad when he mentioned the pen again.
I thought that by becoming the grandson of Prime Minister Kou Zhun, I would be able to live a peaceful and prosperous life without worrying about wealth.
Unexpectedly, I embarked on the old path of fraud again.
Forgery of paintings was not Kou Ji's specialty, but he was confident that in this era, no one would be able to tell the authenticity of the fake paintings he made.
When he started to write again, Kou Ji did not imitate "Spring Play", but started painting directly based on the few paintings he had imitated in his memory.
An hour later, another scroll of painting took shape.
Kou Ji went to bake and dry the scrolls in the shade, and found that Liu Heng had fallen asleep in the place where the scrolls were dried in the shade.
Kou Ji baked the painting, put it on the shelf to dry, and then went to paint again.
One after another, four paintings in a row.
The paintings were all put on a shelf to dry in the shade, but it was not enough to have the paintings. There were also seals on the paintings and preparations were needed.
He went to the shopkeeper to ask for radishes, but found the shopkeeper squatting on the counter and dozing off.
Without disturbing the shopkeeper, he groped to the kitchen and found a few radishes and a small knife on the counter.
He took the things to the painting table and started carving the seal.
…
Time is always busy and slips away without leaving a trace.
When the morning star rises in the east and the rooster crows for the first time.
Liu Heng woke up faintly, stretched out, looked up and saw that there was no painting on the shelf where the paintings were dried, and he was shocked.
He stood up in a hurry and saw Kou Ji sitting at the flower table, seemingly appreciating a painting.
Liu Heng stood up in a hurry and approached Kou Ji.
"You haven't been here all night..."
The words came to my lips, but I could no longer say them.
Because he saw two "Spring Plays" on the painting table.
Two identical "Spring Plays".
"Gudu~"
Liu Heng secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a trembling voice: "Which one... is that one real?"
Kou Ji looked at him with a smile, "What do you think?"
"I think?"
Liu Heng was stunned for a moment and looked at the paintings on the table.
"I think this one is real...it's not right, this one is real...it's not right either..."
Liu Heng lingered between the two paintings for a long time without confirming which one was authentic.
In the end, he could only make a sad face and said to Kou Ji: "Brother, don't play with me. Which one is the real one? If you get it wrong, you will die."
Kou Jil was so happy that he stopped playing tricks on Liu Heng. He pointed at one of the two paintings and said, "This one is fake."
Liu Heng lay on the table, looked at it carefully for a long time, and said confusedly: "How are you sure he is fake..."
Then he stared at Kou Ji warily, "It's not like you have nothing to do with Wu Xian, so you tricked my family into taking away my paintings and asked my family to get into trouble."
Kou Ji rolled his eyes, "Look carefully at this painting, the hem of that woman's skirt!"
