The rumbling of more than twenty carriages echoed in unison. For several days in a row, Lu Qingyan was flipping through the painting album in her hand. After looking at it for a long time, she smiled and nodded: "As expected of a master of his generation, these landscape paintings are indeed very good."
"Oh, what did you see?" Xiao Liuchen asked curiously. He knew this girl was smart, had a good voice, and her singing was captivating. But he had never seen her look at anything like calligraphy or painting before. When did she learn to do that?
Lu Qingyan exclaimed, "These landscape paintings all possess a profound artistic conception yet are easy to understand!"
Meeting Xiao Liuchen's bewildered gaze, Lu Qingyan turned the sketchbook around, and Xiao Liuchen's face instantly turned ashen.
The art book, which was supposed to be about appreciating landscapes, had landscapes in the first half and erotic pictures in the second half! Lu Qingyan happened to have flipped to the second half. Needless to say, this was definitely the work of that womanizing third son of hers; she'd have to give him a good beating when they got back.
I just don't know if I can get back to the capital before dark, so I don't have to wait another day.
"Achoo!" In the Xiao Prince's mansion in the capital, a handsome young man reclining on a beauty's lap sneezed loudly: "Alas, I wonder which beauty is missing me again."
The beautiful woman traced circles on Xiao Liushi's heart with her slender fingers: "You're so annoying, sir. You know perfectly well that I like you the most, yet you still think about someone else at a time like this."
"Alright, alright, I don't want anything else, I only want my beauty." Xiao Liushi said, pulling the beauty into his arms and kissing her.
The beauty giggled and hugged Xiao Liushi even tighter.
Inside the carriage, Lu Qingyan looked at the deliberately switched picture book, put on a stern face, and asked Xiao Liuchen, "Why don't you explain, Young Master Xiao, why is there something like this in your carriage?"
This was clearly not his style, but an ordinary person wouldn't have had the chance to scheme against him. Lu Qingyan was genuinely curious about who was playing tricks on Xiao Liuchen.
"This must have been done by the third brother," Xiao Liuchen said helplessly, rubbing his nose. His third brother was known for his womanizing ways, so it wasn't impossible that he would try to scheme against him.
Lu Qingyan narrowed her eyes: "What if it wasn't him? What if Young Master Xiao has wronged someone?"
"Whatever Master says, that's how it will be." Xiao Liuchen said very readily, afraid that Lu Qingyan would turn back. Accompanied by his pleasant voice, the faint fragrance of flowers lingered in the carriage, making Lu Qingyan drowsy.
"Candied hawthorns! Candied hawthorns!" An old man holding a straw stalk passed by Lu Qingyan, and the sweet and sour smell wafted around, making people's mouths water.
Xiao Liuchen asked Lu Qingyan from the side, "Master, would you like some?"
Lu Qingyan smiled and shook her head: "I'll pass, I'll just film Mingyin's craving."
In fact, Tian Mingyin was really craving it. As soon as she smelled it, she pestered Tian Shenhua and Liu Yu to go downstairs and eat candied hawthorns: "Dad, Mom..."
Unfortunately, his pitiful appearance didn't win him any favors.
"If Master wants some—here you go." Xiao Liuchen took out two candied hawthorns from somewhere and handed them to Lu Qingyan: "I saved them for Master."
Lu Qingyan narrowed her eyes: "Good girl, your disciple is so filial."
Xiao Liuchen continued, "For you, Master, everything is worth it."
Lu Qingyan: "!" This girl is as beautiful as a flower, how am I old? However, Lu Qingyan did not lose her temper, but looked at Xiao Liuchen with a smile.
There will always be a time when you suffer a loss, and as your master, I can't hold it against my disciple.
