Chapter 261 Gifts to Each Other
Song Jingyun smiled and took out the things, "I'm here to give you two some gifts, I hope Mr. Jiang and Mr. Yin won't despise them."
Jiang Junli and the prince knew that Song Jingyun had been busy weaving bamboo paintings in the courtyard these days. When they saw him bringing something over, they guessed what he brought.
But when Song Jingyun opened the bamboo painting in his hand, Jiang Junli and the prince were both stunned.
They had seen bamboo paintings before, but this was the first time they had seen ones as delicate and beautiful as the two in Song Jingyun's hands.
The painting that Song Jingyun opened at this time was a landscape painting. In the painting, there were layers of mountains, the water was like a mirror, and a small boat was moving forward leisurely. A man who looked like a scholar was standing alone on the bow. He looked up at a line of wild geese flying across the sky. Their reflections in the water were clearly visible, which showed the exquisite craftsmanship.
What is more important is that this landscape painting is majestic yet peaceful. Although it seems to be a description of the scenery, its artistic conception is very broad, which inevitably makes people's emotions gradually surge up, like the surging sea.
Jiang Junli stared with his eyes fixed, and then the emotions in his eyes gradually became complicated and fiery.
The man standing alone at the bow of the boat in this picture, isn't he the one being painted? He has great ambitions in his heart, but he is struggling in this boundless water, just like a small boat in this boundless water, it is really difficult to reach the shore, and his ambitions can only be transformed into a line of wild geese, soaring in the sky.
The more Jiang Junli thought about it, the more he felt that his emotions were difficult to suppress. He didn't care that the Crown Prince was standing by and directly took the bamboo painting from Song Jingyun's hand, "Give me this one."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a very good relationship with Jiang Junli, so he naturally didn't care about the bamboo painting at this moment. He just smiled and nodded, "Then I'll take this one. I wonder what this one is, Mr. Song?"
Song Jingyun smiled without saying anything and just opened another bamboo painting.
When the picture of Guanyin Bodhisattva slowly appeared in front of the three people, Jiang Junli was stunned for a moment, then looked at the prince uneasily.
Because the current emperor is obsessed with the theory of gods and neglects state affairs, the prince has always hated ghosts and gods, and even often dislikes the words of Buddha and Bodhisattva.
The bamboo painting Song Jingyun sent this time is of Guanyin Bodhisattva...
"How about..." Jiang Junli wanted to take the lead and planned to exchange the bamboo painting of Guanyin Bodhisattva with the landscape painting in his hand.
The prince stared at the bamboo painting of Guanyin Bodhisattva for a long time, and then interrupted Jiang Junli, "It doesn't matter, I want this one."
After that, he took the bamboo painting with both hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Song, for giving it to me."
When he spoke, his tone was relaxed and calm, and his voice was slightly rising, as if he was not unhappy at all. Jiang Junli saw that the prince's expression was normal at this time, and he felt relieved.
Maybe it’s because I don’t care about any ghost stories, so I don’t care what I receive.
After all, he is the Crown Prince. He has been different from ordinary people since he was a child. He has experienced a lot in recent years, so naturally he can remain calm in the face of praise or criticism.
Jiang Junli gradually felt relieved, and when Song Jingyun saw that both of them were very happy to accept the two bamboo paintings, he pursed his lips and smiled again and again.
The three of them talked for a long time in Courtyard No. 1 and even had lunch together. In the afternoon, Song Jingyun said goodbye and left. The prince did not stay long either and left Guanghua Garden.
Riding in a carriage on the way to his mansion, the prince kept looking at the bamboo painting of Guanyin Bodhisattva in his hand.
