"Brother, tomorrow I'll work with you to color-print the remaining 199 copies of the Hundred Beasts Picture. We'll start by displaying the silk-printed Hundred Beasts Picture in all the major bookstores. Let's make 'Ning An Jun' famous among a small number of wealthy children before the New Year. How do you do that?"
"Isn't it too fast?"
Suningan is not so keen on becoming famous, but rather a little afraid.
Is it really a good thing to become famous early?
"I think my drawings are too childish. After all, there are many excellent artists, and I am still a child."
"You are not a child anymore, you are a grown-up. You should become famous early. Didn't that Linyuan monk also become famous at a young age? You were taught by your mother, so you must be a better painter than he was when he became famous."
Su Ningjie patted his sturdy shoulders and said, "You must have confidence in yourself. Don't be timid or afraid. There will be no shortage of buyers for the Hundred Beasts Painting anyway! Besides, the world only knows Ning Anjun, but they don't know that Ning Anjun is a child! As long as you don't show up and no one knows, you just need to focus on constantly improving your painting skills."
Su Ning'an wavered and looked at Xiao Lingyu, "Mother."
Xiao Lingyu flipped through the album and said, "Your painting skills are now good enough to become a master. You have a natural talent for painting. Your second brother's suggestion is very good!"
"Brother, mother has approved of it. What are you waiting for? Take me back to the studio to practice."
"Let's go too!"
Three days later.
"You have to be careful and handle it with care. This is all my brother's hard work, it can't be bumped or damaged!"
Su Yun, Su Ying and Wei Ying are used to doing rough work.
In the past, any object was thrown into the carriage with one hand.
At this moment, I was carrying several large boxes of the Hundred Beasts Pictures, which seemed to weigh thousands of pounds. I held them in my arms with both hands and dared not breathe heavily. If I was not careful, the Hundred Beasts Pictures in the boxes would fall apart.
"Dad, I'm taking them back to Huayang County. I'll come back after I sell all of them."
Su Xingyi: "Don't rush back. Your grandfather is old. You should spend more time with him. He misses you so much when you're away these days."
"Yeah, I understand. I'll be leaving now."
Xiao Lingyu was worried that they might encounter danger on the road, so he arranged for Su Ying to escort them.
"Xingyi, children, come into the house quickly, let's roast sweet potatoes around the stove."
Half an incense stick of time after the Lu family's carriage left the village, three carriages came from the front.
Twelve soldiers with solemn expressions and murderous aura sat high on their horses, which made people shudder.
As soon as Wei Ying saw the person coming, he knew he was not someone to be trifled with, so he quickly drove his carriage out of the way.
Su Ningjie quickly recognized the last carriage as belonging to Miao Xiantong. "Master Miao, you brought so many people to the village today. Is there something important you want to tell my mother?"
"It's a big deal! Someone from the capital wants to see your mother."
"Mother, mother."
"Brother Jie, why did you turn back? Did you leave anything behind?"
"Mom, I'll go take a look."
Su Ning'an picked up two roasted sweet potatoes and went to the yard.
"Second brother, why are you back again?" Su Ning'an said as he handed him the sweet potato.
Su Ningjie took the sweet potato and took a bite. "Master Miao is here and said someone is coming from the capital."
After he finished speaking, Lord Miao led a round-faced eunuch named Wang Danei, who was holding a whisk, into the yard.
The brothers' eyes quickly caught sight of the tray covered with red cloth in the hands of the follower beside Wang Danei.
"Young Master Su, please ask your mother to come out and receive the order."
Receive the order?
Unexpectedly, the imperial edict arrived so soon. Xiao Lingyu quickly stood up and said, "Xingyi, Wen Ge'er, Xiao Xi'er, let's go receive the edict."
When Wang Danei saw Su Xingyi's face clearly, he was shocked for a moment, and his eyes were full of amazement!
How can this be considered a poor family in Guihua Village?
This is clearly a wealthy family in Guihua Village!
This appearance is really good-looking!
Xiao Lingyu frowned slightly when she saw this. Why did everyone from the capital like to stare at her family's intentions?
When she brings Xingyi back to Beijing to visit relatives in the future, there will inevitably be many young ladies from aristocratic families who will peek at her Xingyi. Well, she has to protect him.
"Eunuch Wang?"
Wang Danei realized his impoliteness and quickly averted his gaze, "Princess, please listen to my command."
Xiao Lingyu and his family quickly knelt down to receive the decree...
When Xiao Lingyu heard Wang Danei say the words "You are not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned", he felt a sudden blockage in his heart.
I took the imperial edict and looked at it carefully, and it still said the same sentence.
She is not a prince who was granted a fiefdom outside the capital. How could the emperor issue such an imperial decree?
She doesn't even have the freedom to go back to Beijing to visit her relatives!
Xiao Lingyu's heart was churning with emotion, but his expression remained calm. He smiled and said, "Eunuch Wang, you must be exhausted from the journey. Please come to the pavilion and have a cup of ginger tea to warm yourself up, and then have lunch before leaving."
"My Lady, there's no need for lunch. I have to rush back to Huayang County to discuss some matters with Qi Lianli. I also have to get up early tomorrow morning to take a boat back to the capital to report. There's no time to lose."
"Okay, then warm yourself up with some ginger tea before you go."
"Oh, and please ask the princess to move her family to the Princess's Mansion in Huayang County as soon as possible. The imperial guards carefully selected by the emperor are staying outside the courtyard to protect the Princess's Mansion."
The emperor's men?
Can she refuse?
Be down-to-earth by using your own talents.
"Eunuch Wang, please take them back to the capital. This princess has guards to protect her home."
Wang Danei said, "This is the Emperor's order. You are the Protector of the Nation, and you should be protected by the Imperial Guards."
Xiao Lingyu had no choice but to leave the group behind and send them to escort Su Ningjie and Wang Danei back to Huayang County...
"Big brother, third brother, mother didn't seem very happy after receiving the imperial edict."
Su Ningwen thought for a moment, "The sentence in the imperial edict about not being able to return to the capital without being summoned means that mother cannot return to the capital to visit grandpa and his family."
"The Emperor is so bullying! Why does my mother have to get his permission before she can go back to her parents' home?" Xiao Xier was so angry that she raised her fist, "I really want to beat him up!"
"Hush!" Su Ning'an quickly grasped Xiao Xi'er's small pink fist and whispered, "What you said is extremely disrespectful to the Emperor. It's just like when Zhang Sanzhu offended Mother, he should be beheaded!"
"Yes, sister. The book says that when the emperor is angry, millions of people will be killed. He is the king of a country. His words are the imperial decree. If you disobey his orders, you will be beheaded."
Xiao Xier pouted: "We said we would protect mother and not let anyone bully her, but the emperor bullied her and we were powerless to do anything! If we were stronger than the emperor, he wouldn't dare to bully mother."
"The emperor is the ruler of a country. He is the biggest and most powerful. No one is more powerful than him." Su Ningwen said in a low voice.
Xiao Xier looked at the two brothers and suddenly saw their future.
My eldest brother will be a painter in the future, and he is already a painter now.
In the future, my second brother will manage both the Su and Lu businesses, and at best he will be a very wealthy businessman.
If my third brother is good at studying, he will only become a high-ranking official. My grandfather is a high-ranking official, but he is not as high-ranking as the emperor, and not as powerful as the emperor.
Only by becoming an emperor can you protect your family!
Xiao Xier instantly had a goal in life: to become the most powerful person when she grows up!
Become emperor!
Um?
How can I become an emperor?
Mother should know, right?
Ask mom tonight!
