Chapter 1569 What do you want?
Xiao Yichen was too slapping, so he had a lot of beards on his face. After changing his dress, he looked like a big beard, dressed simply, dressed as Shui Lingyue's entourage.
Shui Lingyue was dressed as a business and distinguished guest, and the two came all the way to Yangzhou City.
Of course, the General's Mansion is not that easy to enter.
The two of them had to hide secretly and not show off. When they heard General Li's hobbies in the public, Shui Lingyue immediately had an idea.
It turns out that Li Yikun is very fond of collecting calligraphy and paintings, so at the gate of the General's Mansion, painters often sell calligraphy and paintings. Sometimes they are lucky and are attracted by Li Yikun and can sell them at a good price.
So, Shui Lingyue also prepared two calligraphy and paintings, which were painted by Xiao Yichen, and the contents of the paintings were thought by Shui Lingyue. The two of them brought the paintings to the gate of the general's mansion.
As soon as the two arrived at the door, a guard shouted, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Yichen stepped forward and said, "My son has two peerless paintings, so I want to ask General Li to appreciate them."
Because people often come to sell paintings on weekdays, the two guards didn't care and said, "Leave the paintings, leave them with an address and name. If the general likes them, they will give them money within three days. If the general doesn't like them, they will return the paintings within three days."
Xiao Yichen immediately waved his hand and said, "That's not possible. These two paintings by my young master are peerless treasures. What if they stay in the general's mansion and are stolen and replaced?"
"Bold!" The two guards were immediately angry and pointed at Xiao Yichen and said, "Where did the arrogant people come from? How dare I slander my general? My general has a noble status and a noble character. How could I be greedy for your two paintings?"
At this moment, the corner door creaked open, and a man in a blue robe walked out and asked, "What's the noise?"
The guard said, "Two painters."
The man walked over, looked at Xiao Yichen and Shui Lingyue, and asked, "Where is the painting?"
Xiao Yichen raised his right hand slightly, and the two scrolls shook on his hands, saying, "In my hands."
The man said, "I am the butler Cui of the General's Mansion. You can hand over the painting to me and then inform me of your residence address and name. There will be a reply within three days."
Xiao Yichen shook his head, put the painting into his sleeve, and said, "Sorry, Mr. Cui, our paintings are peerless treasures and must be traded in person."
At this time, Shui Lingyue, who was under the steps, spoke: "Xiao Yi, since the General's Mansion does not have the sincerity to buy paintings, we have never had the chance to have these two treasures, so let's go find another buyer."
As he said that, he turned around and wanted to leave, and Xiao Yichen also turned around and walked down the steps, followed Shui Lingyue, and walked forward.
Butler Cui watched the two walk ten meters away and quickly stopped them and said, "Please stay, please stay!"
Shui Lingyue and Xiao Yichen paused slightly, turned around, and Xiao Yichen asked, "What does Butler Cui mean?"
Butler Cui walked up with a haha and said, "Since the painting in your hands is a peerless treasure, and my general is a person who loves painting, it is better to enter the mansion. My general happens to be in the mansion at this moment."
Xiao Yichen nodded and said, "Okay."
The two followed Xiao Yichen into the corner gate. The general's mansion was not like other flowers, with no flowers or green grass. There were a few towering ancient trees, which looked like they seemed to be hundreds of years old.
Butler Cui took the two of them to the living room, looked at Shui Lingyue and said, "Now, the two have entered the General's Mansion, so it's time to take out the two paintings for me to see."
