Changle Palace, back hall, Zhou Wu fell into silence after listening to Li Mu's words.
Seeing that she didn't answer for a long time, Li Mu couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, isn't it possible?"
Zhou Wu glanced at him and said calmly: "Yes, but the painters in the palace have many rules. Even if you want to learn, they may not be willing to teach you. If they are unwilling to teach, I can't force you."
Li Mu nodded and said: "This is natural. If they don't want to, I can only find someone else."
Zhou Wu walked to the front hall, glanced at Master Mei, and said, "Mei Wei, go to the Secretary's Department and ask a painter to teach Li Mu how to paint. Just say it's on my order."
Master Mei bowed and said: "I obey the order."
Zhou Wu added: "If the painter doesn't want to, don't force it."
Lord Mei looked up at her, met his eyes, nodded and said, "I understand."
Li Mu wanted to choose his own teacher. He walked to Master Mei and said, "I'll go with you."
"You stay." Zhou Wu glanced at him and said without any doubt: "As an official of the imperial court, you resigned without my permission for more than a month. I haven't punished you yet. Just stand here for a quarter of an hour.
Reflect on reflection.”
"I obey the decree."
Li Mu sighed and stood there honestly. Although he wanted to surprise the Queen and try to find a painting inheritance, he still violated the rules of the court and should be punished.
Besides, he is not a primary school student, so being forced to stand for a quarter of an hour is not a punishment at all.
Li Mu stood in the hall, but Zhou Wu didn't sit down either. She walked across to him and said, "Besides, you are not allowed to dig people's graves again without my permission. Next time, it won't be as simple as standing still."
Li Mu said sincerely: "I know I was wrong."
In any case, it is always immoral and disrespectful to the deceased to enter other people's graves. He is not Qianhuan, and he is not really good at this.
With the Queen's permission, for example, entering the Baidi Cave and obtaining the page of the Heavenly Book is a legitimate archaeological excavation, or in order to pass on the art of painting, visiting the tomb of the Painting Saint Clothes a thousand years ago, there is nothing wrong with it.
In order to unravel the mysteries of ancient times and explore ancient history, not only demons but also righteous practitioners do this kind of thing.
If similar situations arise in the future, just apply to her first.
Changle Palace, Li Mu honestly stood for punishment.
Secretary, Lord Mei has summoned three palace painters.
Although the three of them are not highly cultivated, they all stand at the pinnacle of the Dazhou calligraphy and painting world and represent the pinnacle of Dazhou art.
An old man bowed and asked, "What are your orders, sir?"
Master Mei said calmly: "You are the most senior and most skilled painters in the palace. Li Mu, the scholar in the middle school, is learning painting skills and wants to find someone among you to teach him."
The white-haired old man stood up and said: "I admire Master Li's work very much. I am willing to spend all my life's learning on teaching Master Li's painting skills..."
Another middle-aged man did not dare to show weakness and said: "It is my honor to be able to teach Mr. Li, and I am willing to give all my painting skills to him..."
The last young man followed and said: "If Mr. Li is interested in painting women, you can come to see me at any time."
Master Mei glanced at them and asked: "Your painting skills cannot be easily passed on to others, so no one can teach them, understand?"
The old man asked doubtfully: "Why?"
The middle-aged man said in surprise: "The master has not set such a rule..."
The young man wondered: "Why is this?"
Master Mei said indifferently: "You don't need to ask why. Li Mulai asked, you just say this, whoever wants to teach him will not come tomorrow..."
The three of them looked straight and spoke immediately.
"As you command!"
"clear!"
"understood……"
…
After Master Mei left, the three of them looked at each other in confusion.
“One moment I will let you teach me, and the next moment you won’t let me teach you. Is it teaching or not teaching?”
"Of course I won't teach you anymore. Didn't you listen to Commander Mei's last words? Whoever dares to teach him should just pack up and go home tomorrow!"
"It's better to listen to Commander Mei. She is someone close to His Majesty. What she means is His Majesty's opinion. We cannot resist the decree..."
"If you teach, teach. If you don't teach, don't teach. What kind of tricks is your Majesty playing? By the way, I remember that your Majesty is also a person who loves painting. The original painting of the saint is in your hands. If we are not allowed to teach, is it because your Majesty wants to
Will you teach me personally..."
"Hush, be careful what you say, be careful what you say..."
…
In Changle Palace, Li Mu had been standing for a quarter of an hour, eating the grapes given by the Queen and waiting for Lord Mei to come back.
Li Mu still has some confidence in this matter.
Although many people in God do not like him, there are even more people who like him.
It's not like he's loved by everyone, but with his reputation, there shouldn't be any problem if he hires a few palace painters to teach him how to paint.
What's more, there is also an oral instruction from the Queen, saying that she will not force them, but just talk. Who doesn't know that the Queen loves him the most, and whoever dares to refuse will not come to work tomorrow...
Soon, footsteps could be heard outside Changle Palace.
Master Mei walked in, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, none of the three painters are willing to teach him."
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then said in disbelief: "Why?"
Master Mei explained: "They said that their painting skills are not passed on to others and they cannot teach you."
Zhou Wu glanced at Li Mu and said calmly: "Even if they have this rule, I can't force them. You'd better find someone else."
Li Mu could not accept this fact, so he went to the Secretariat in person and found three painters.
The old man apologized: "Mr. Li, I'm really sorry. Please forgive me for being unable to help with this matter. I once swore to God that I would not pass on my painting skills to others, otherwise I would be struck by five thunderbolts from heaven. I will not be able to help you."
So damn..."
Li Mu looked at the middle-aged man, who immediately said: "Me too..."
The young man immediately said: "Me too..."
Li Mu shook his head and said in disappointment: "I finally know how you stopped painting. It would be strange if the previous painters were like you and kept painting..."
Li Mu was curious before, but let's not talk about Taoism. It is simple to get started, easy to get started, and it is open and not hidden. It deserves to be promoted and strengthened.
Even if it is a little difficult to get started with painting, how difficult can it be to beat the Legalists?
Nowadays, successors of Legalism still appear from time to time, but there are no successors of painters. This may be the reason.

However, Li Mu couldn't force others to follow such rules. At most, he could only mourn his misfortune and be angry that he would not fight.
After returning from the Secretary's Department, Lord Mei suddenly said: "Why don't you let His Majesty teach you?"
Li Mu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Does your Majesty know how to paint?"
Lord Mei rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why do you think Your Majesty likes to collect authentic works of painting saints? Your Majesty has loved painting since she was a child, and her painting skills are on par with several top painters in the palace."
Li Mu only knew that the Queen liked to play with flowers and plants. She had known the Queen for so long and had never seen her painting before.
But there is no need for Mr. Mei to lie to him about this kind of thing. How could a person who doesn't know how to paint have a painting that he likes the most? What's more, when the Queen commented on his painting, she seemed to be really professional.
Li Mu sighed softly, feeling in his heart that he had been searching for her for thousands of times, but when he suddenly looked back, he found that person in a dimly lit place.
It's just that the lights were too bright, and Li Mu was in darkness for a while without realizing it.
It turns out that the Queen is the person he has been looking for.
…
Changle Palace.
Wanwan looked at the table full of dishes and said in surprise: "What day is it today? Why are there so many dishes..."
Xiaobai looked at it and said, "It seems that they are all what Sister Zhou likes to eat."
Wanwan said: "I like them very much too."
Xiaobai muttered: "As long as it's edible, you like it..."
Li Mu touched their heads and said, "Today is your sister Zhou's birthday."
Every dish on this table was made by Li Mu himself, and all of them were liked by the Queen. It had been a long time since he had cooked so many dishes. This time, he had to be more attentive when asking for help.
After having enough wine and food, the two lively girls went out to eat. Li Mu looked at the Queen and asked with a smile: "Are these dishes to your Majesty's taste?"
Zhou Wu nodded and said, "Yes, you are interested."
Li Mu struck while the iron was hot and said: "Your Majesty, I have an unkind request..."
Zhou Wu said calmly: "What's the matter? Tell me."
Li Mu raised his head and said: "Master Mei said that your majesty's painting skills are unparalleled, and I would like to ask your majesty to teach me how to paint..."
Zhou Wu thought for a moment and said: "For the sake of these meals, I promise you, Mei Wei, prepare a pen and ink..."
