Chapter 443 Chu Yansui presents a painting
"Your Majesty, this is a birthday gift from my schoolmate Du Siyuan. When I saw it was an ancient painting, I wanted to ask Your Majesty to give it a thumbs up."
After Chu Yansui came in and paid his respects, he presented a rectangular box in his hand to Emperor Yongping.
"An ancient painting? Then the Emperor will take a look at it for you."
Emperor Yongping looked at Chu Yansui in confusion. When did this grandson who didn't like studying become interested in ancient paintings?
Lin Fu took the box from Chu Yansui, carefully took out the scroll inside and checked it, then placed it on the table in front of Emperor Yongping.
Emperor Yongping saw that the painting was indeed old and the scroll was very old, so he hurriedly opened the painting.
When the words "Five Mountains and Flying Fairies" appeared before his eyes, Emperor Yongping became somewhat excited.
After asking for this painting for a year, it finally came into his hands.
After carefully looking at it, he asked Lin Fu to put the painting away, then looked at Chu Yansui lovingly and said, "Sui'er, was this painting given to you by Du Siyuan?"
As soon as Chu Yansui saw Emperor Yongping's expression, he knew that he was in a good mood at the moment, and quickly answered truthfully.
"To answer your Majesty's question, it was Du Siyuan who took the initiative to give it to his grandson. He said he gave it to his grandson as a birthday gift."
"Well, Sui'er's birthday is coming soon. Is there anything Sui'er wants? The Emperor will give it to you."
Emperor Yongping stroked his gray beard, with a kind smile on his face.
Today, he looked at his second grandson and liked him more and more.
Of course, he had always liked this second legitimate grandson, but today he liked him even more.
He didn't want the "Five Mountains and Flying Fairies" and Su Pengxin didn't want it either, but his grandson got it. How could he not like it more?
"I like whatever the Emperor gave me. I also want to give this painting to the Emperor, but I don't know how to paint, so it would be a waste if I gave it to him."
Chu Yansui was a little excited when he heard that Emperor Yongping wanted to give him something, but he remembered what his brother said when he asked him to bring the painting to his study.
If the emperor wanted to give him something, he would say he liked anything and told him to give the painting to the emperor.
He really didn't understand painting, and he didn't quite understand what his brother said, but as long as the emperor was happy, he was happy.
I don’t know why Du Siyuan wanted to give him a painting. He is my study partner. Doesn’t he know that I like swords?
The same goes for my elder brother. His birthday is clearly next month, and mum hasn't said anything about throwing him a birthday party, but my elder brother mentioned in the South Study that he was going to have a birthday party.
He always felt that his brother was looking forward to his birthday more than he was.
"Hahahaha, okay, okay, Lin Fu, go to my private storehouse and pick out a birthday gift for Prince Sui. As long as he likes something and it happens to be in the storehouse, give him one."
Emperor Yongping was even happier now. Before he even opened his mouth, his grandson had already taken the initiative to give him the painting. What a sensible grandson he was.
It must be appreciated.
Chu Yansui finally returned to the East Palace happily with a group of eunuchs holding trays. After the eunuchs left, he excitedly went to his brother's yard.
"Brother, Sui'er is back. Sui'er gave the painting to the Emperor as you asked. The Emperor was very happy indeed..."
Chu Yanshou told Chu Yanjing what happened in Yu's study in vivid detail.
Chu Yanjing acted like an elder brother. He reached out and touched Chu Yansui's head. "Sui'er did a great job."
"Yeah, of course, but brother taught me well. Sui'er will definitely be right if she listens to him."
Chu Yansui puffed out his little chest, looking as proud as a little peacock.
…
Prince Shou soon received the news that the "Five Mountains and Flying Fairies" had been delivered to the East Palace.
Yu Jinming was the first to know that the painting had already fallen into the hands of Emperor Yongping. His eldest nephew was indeed smart and really looked like his uncle.
They accomplished the task without the uncle and nephew showing up. They were much more capable than his father-in-law.
However, if the matter is exposed, it cannot be implicated on him. He deceived his eldest nephew only to show his filial piety and loyalty.
While Yu Jinming breathed a sigh of relief, he kept convincing himself in his heart.
After Su Pengxin learned the whole story, he was speechless.
His son-in-law actually fooled a few kids?
I wonder if Du Hongdao would be so angry that he would die if he knew that it was his great-grandson who stole his heirloom?
However, I wonder if the emperor will admit this matter?
Oh, no, he seems to be sick, so sick that he can't get out of bed.
So the next day Su Pengxin took sick leave and asked his servants to spread rumors that he was so sick that he could not get out of bed and might not be able to attend court for two or three months.
How could Emperor Yongping not know what Su Pengxin meant? The painting was already in his hands, and Su Pengxin didn't know whether he should continue to ask Du Hongdao for it. Didn't he have to pretend to be sick?
However, he would not let him pretend for too long. He would send people to exchange the two cities of Fengning State as soon as possible.
By the time Du Hongdao realized that the painting was not in the mansion, the city had been returned to Sheng'an State, so he could not find him even if he wanted to.
Anyway, the painting has been exchanged to Fengning Country. If you have the ability, you can go to Fengning Country and ask for it back yourself.
Emperor Yansha was infected with the Yansha poison and was lying on the hospital bed, barely breathing.
The imperial physician had been given several treatments by him, but still couldn't find a way to detoxify.
Along with him, all the concubines, eunuchs and palace maids were poisoned. This poison was a torturous one. If it was not treated, the effects would spread quickly. If it was treated, the level of the imperial physician of Yansha Kingdom was not enough to cure it.
But Emperor Yansha knew very well that Murong Zhan was poisoned by Yansha through the hands of King Huai, but still survived.
"Has Guo Mu sent back any news?"
The skin on Emperor Yansha's body had already decayed, and he was unable to go out to see people. He had even been unable to see the wind or the sun for several months.
At that time he sent Guo Mu to Sheng'an Kingdom to find a way to detoxify.
Although Guo Mu was very powerful and familiar with the other four countries in Changxing Mainland, that was when the royal families of those four countries paid no attention to him.
Now, it is not so easy for him to set foot in these four countries easily.
Look, before he even left Yansha Kingdom, he was intercepted by Liu Renyi. This man who used to be his brother had really screwed him over, and he would certainly not let go of the chance to take revenge.
Although Emperor Qingluo was very frightened now, when he learned that Guo Mu was arrested, he still had the man who caused the destruction of his Qingluo country brought to him for a look.
Changxing was the second largest country in mainland China, but it was destroyed just because the court officials secretly cooperated with this man. It was so unfair for him to think about it.
He did not fire Liu Renyi because he was short of manpower, and Liu Renyi was still loyal after he came.
But Guo Mu is different. The person who caused him to destroy his country must not be allowed to live.
Guo Mu was killed by Emperor Qingluo himself, but Emperor Yansha did not receive any news.
The court officials did not dare to tell him the news.
Moreover, the princes were fighting fiercely for that throne, and no one cared about his life or death.
"Your Majesty, Guo Mu has arrived at Sheng'an. If we wait a little longer, he will surely find the antidote."
The personal eunuch who was deeply trusted by Emperor Yansha had already received instructions.
It's better to deceive for a day. Once the princes decide the winner, it won't be so important whether there is an antidote or not.
