Ji Changying looked closely and saw that the person above had bright features and a dignified appearance, but his thick bangs made his appearance look a little darker.
The painting is rendered with great momentum, with the horses and weapons all depicted in large size, making the woman's body appear even more delicate.
But she rode on a tall horse and rushed in front of everyone, holding a big sword as tall as a person in one hand and killing the enemy single-handedly, looking extremely brave.
Ji Changying felt a strange feeling in her heart.
"Where did this come from?"
Liu Shicong looked at the person in the picture and seemed to recall the past: "This is what my father left behind."
"My family had been merchants for generations and our financial situation was decent, but we ran into war. Because we were in the grain business, we were targeted. A group of beasts from the previous dynasty led people to burn, kill, and loot wantonly. My father was lucky enough to know the news in advance."
"He hurried home with food and money and fled with us, but he was caught up along the way. Aside from my father and me, over fifty members of the Liu family perished at the hands of the former dynasty's army."
"My father held me tightly in his arms, and just when we thought we were doomed, a man came up single-handedly with a knife in hand. He fought against dozens of them and ultimately saved us."
"That person was the Empress. After she rescued us and learned about the situation, she touched my head and told us to live well."
"She not only sent people to help us bury the remains of our family members, but also took us to a safe town. Worried that we wouldn't be able to survive, she left some food and money for us."
Liu Shicong's eyes lit up when he talked about this.
The heroic image of the Queen fighting with a sword in hand was deeply engraved in his young heart.
So many years have passed but he still dares not forget the moment, so the moment he saw Ji Changying he almost thought that the Queen had come here.
"Later we found out she was actually the Empress who accompanied the Emperor in conquering the world. My father said that the Empress was our family's great benefactor, so he had a painting of her painted and kept it in our home year-round. Every New Year and festival, we would pray in front of the portrait for the Empress to be healthy and live a long and healthy life."
Liu Shicong also agreed with this. If it weren't for the Queen, his Liu family would have been extinct.
Ji Changying turned her gaze to the painting again. In the painting, she vaguely saw some shadows of her mother.
Especially when she was waving a big knife to block everyone, it was so similar to her mother swinging a sledgehammer at people!
"I didn't expect you to have this connection with the Empress."
No wonder he spoke up for the Queen in the restaurant and trampled on Cui's face.
"It's a shame that good things don't come easy to good people! When we first met the Empress, she was a weak woman but she was unparalleled in the battlefield, always charging into the forefront! She saved the Emperor from the brink of death many times, yet she married that Cui girl the moment she ascended the throne!"
"It's only been ten years since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince passed away! And yet a whole bunch of people are clamoring for other princes to take the throne, and they're constantly praising that Cui family. It's simply outrageous!"
"Without the Empress, these people are nothing! They might still be fighting for food with other dogs in some corner!"
Liu Shicong became more and more angry as he spoke, his face flushed and his neck thickened, as if he would immediately roll up his sleeves and fight those people as long as they stood in front of him.
"You...can calm down a little."
Ji Changying didn't expect that this person would act like an angry young man when talking about those things in Kyoto.
Liu Shicong came back to his senses after hearing her words.
Thinking that the person in front of him was almost a stranger, he hurriedly explained awkwardly: "Sorry, I was a little excited."
Mainly because he saw Ji Changying's face, he couldn't help but let down his guard.
"She looked like this when you saw her? She also had this on her forehead?" Ji Changying pointed to the thick bangs on her forehead.
Liu Shicong nodded decisively: "That's right! That's it!"
Ji Changying was puzzled. Could it be that Mr. Huang had never seen his junior sister like this before?
Otherwise, why didn't I recognize her at first sight?
But she wouldn't tell Liu Shicong this. She looked away expressionlessly, "It's been so long, you've already forgotten what she looks like. Don't think everyone looks like the Empress just because of this door curtain. Are you really not afraid of losing your head?"
Liu Shicong's emotions became excited again: "Impossible! I haven't forgotten! I haven't seen what the eldest princess looks like, but I think she must look like this!"
"Heh...you're quite thoughtful."
Ji Changying didn't want to continue talking and looked at him impatiently: "Let's end this matter here. If you really don't fear trouble, go ahead and shout it everywhere!"
Liu Shicong was speechless for a moment.
It's not that he is not afraid of death, but when facing this face, his guard seems to suddenly disappear, and he doesn't feel worried at all when talking about this matter.
"Calm down and I'll tell you something serious."
Ji Changying put on a stern face and began to explain Liu Shicong seriously.
She came here this time to bring Ji Fengshou to see him in two days to fulfill what she had said.
Seeing her speaking so seriously, Liu Shicong suddenly remembered: This person! It's his boss! The one who signed the indenture with him! It's also Li Changmu!
He took a breath, forcing himself to calm down and listen carefully to what the other person said.
"The main purpose is to make my father let down his guard and think that you are someone he can befriend. I don't need to teach you the proper measure and scale. You can decide for yourself."
Liu Shicong nodded solemnly: "Yes, I understand."
Ever since Ji Changying showed up, Liu Shicong knew that he had misjudged him before. How could there be someone monitoring him?
Now the boss not only meets his true face with him, but also plans to let him meet his family. What does this mean?
This shows that the boss really treats him as his own and has begun to trust him!
not to mention···
Liu Shicong looked at Ji Changying's face again. Just this face made him feel inexplicably trusting.
Even though he now knew that she 'just' looked a bit like the Queen, he couldn't help it.
Ji Changying felt Liu Shicong's gaze on her again and couldn't help but frown.
He raised his hand and put the black hood back on his face, and said with some displeasure: "After we have explained the matter, you can figure it out yourself. I will bring people to the store in two days."
After saying that, she stood up and jumped out of the window.
The figure that was originally unfathomable in Liu Shicong's eyes now looked very pleasing to his eyes.
“How could it not be…”
Liu Shicong muttered to himself with a frown on his face.
Is it possible that there are really two people in this world who have no blood relationship but are extremely similar in every move?
Liu Shicong patted his forehead to sober himself up. No matter what, these were not his concerns.
