Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Chapter 354 This painting is very beautiful, just like your elegance

The sunlight quietly filtered through the patterned window lattices of the Prince Jin's Mansion, like strands of golden silk, gently falling into an elegant study.

Outside the study, there are several willow trees in the courtyard, which have just grown new green leaves.

The willow branches sway gently in the breeze, like dancing green ribbons.

The grass under the trees was like a soft green carpet dotted with wild flowers.

The wild flowers are colorful, like scattered gems.

In the pond not far away, the water surface was shimmering.

A few ducks were playing in the water, creating circles of ripples.

Xie Yuer was wearing a lavender long dress with delicate flowers on the hem that sparkled like stars at night.

She seemed like a fairy walking out of a scroll, slowly walking to the desk to prepare to paint.

I only saw Xie Yuer bending down slightly and gently spreading out her jade-like fingers.

The white rice paper spreads out like snow, as if carrying countless stories.

She picked up a brush, the handle of which looked like a delicate bamboo.

Slowly dip it in ink, the ink is like the deep night sky, mysterious and unpredictable.

Xie Yuer narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze focused and gentle.

It seems that the whole world can be contained in his writing, and the light is like bright stars.

In the study, the sandalwood bookshelves are filled with ancient books, exuding a faint scent of ink.

The screen carved with patterns is painted with a landscape painting, with clouds and mist and undulating mountains, giving people a feeling of tranquility and loftiness.

Outside the window, a few birds were jumping on the branches, chirping, as if adding a little vitality to this quiet picture.

The first thing Xie Yuer painted was a corner of the Jin Prince's Mansion garden, where the blooming peonies were delicate and noble.

Her rosy lips were gently pursed, and the pen in her hand was like a nimble butterfly.

Dancing lightly on the paper, carefully outlining each petal.

Xie Yuer lowered her head slightly from time to time, as if listening to the whispers of the petals.

Sometimes she gently frowned her beautiful eyebrows, as if thinking about the charm of flowers.

Her heart was filled with hope for the prosperity of the Prince of Jin's Mansion. "This peony is like the glory of the Prince of Jin's Mansion, blooming brilliantly."

As she spoke, Xie Yuer wished that this glory would exist forever like a star, allowing the Prince Jin's Mansion to stand firmly in the wind and rain.

Then she drew a butterfly, flying lightly among the flowers.

The butterfly's wings are light and beautiful, and seem to be able to fly high at any time, with a dreamy color.

When drawing this butterfly, Xie Yuer's mouth corners slightly raised and her eyes revealed a gentle emotion.

She twisted her wrist slightly and adjusted the tip of the pen slightly, as if dancing with the butterfly.

At this time, Xie Yuer recalled every little detail of her time with Zhu Gang. They once took walks in the garden and enjoyed such beautiful scenery.

Those pictures are like bright pearls, shining in my heart.

She raised her head slightly and looked out the window.

A gentle smile appeared on Xie Yuer's lips, and she secretly said in her heart: "I hope to use this painting to remember the beauty and keep it in my heart forever."

After finishing the painting, Xie Yuer leaned forward slightly.

She looked at her work carefully, a satisfied smile on her face.

That smile is like the spring sunshine, warm and bright.

Xie Yuer gently put down the brush and decided to give the painting to Zhu Gang as a precious souvenir between the two.

At this time, the sky outside the study was as blue as a gem, and white clouds floated in the air like cotton candy.

The breeze blows gently, bringing with it the scent of flowers and grass.

When Zhu Gang saw the painting, he was moved by Xie Yuer's talent and affection.

He held Xie Yuer's hand tightly, with love burning in his eyes.

Like a blazing fire, burning with endless tenderness.

"My dear, this painting is very beautiful, just like your style."

His voice was low, like a melodious piece of music. As Zhu Gang spoke, he gently stroked Xie Yuer's jade hand.

Xie Yuer lowered her head shyly, her heart filled with happiness.

That happiness is like a sweet spring, flowing in the heart.

"Lin Bi, who was sent by His Majesty, seems to be thinking about something recently. Your Highness, do you know what it is?"

She asked softly, her voice as clear and sweet as the sound of a yellow oriole singing out of a valley.

As she spoke, Xie Yuer tilted her head slightly, her eyes full of curiosity.

Zhu Gang nodded slightly, "Of course I know. He wants to find a way to make the palace have enough money and property so that the officials can work hard."

His brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Then Zhu Gang walked back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, as if thinking about how to deal with the situation.

The atmosphere in the study became heavy, forming a subtle contrast with the bright spring sunshine outside.

Xie Yuer asked again: "Does he have any good ideas?"

Her eyes were full of curiosity, like twinkling stars.

At the same time, Xie Yuer moved forward slightly and looked at Zhu Gang expectantly.

Zhu Gang recalled for a moment, "Looking at the charter submitted earlier, there should be a way.

The measures are very detailed, such as adjusting social and entertainment activities and determining clothing standards.”

His voice is steady, powerful and authoritative.

Having said this, Zhu Gang stopped and raised his head slightly.

Xie Yuer looked thoughtful when she saw this situation. "If we do this, what do you think the effect will be?"

There was worry in her eyes, as if shrouded in a thin mist.

Xie Yuer bit her lips gently and frowned slightly.

Zhu Gang seemed to have realized something. "If we follow the rules, we can both save the face of the palace and save money."

His eyes sparkled with wisdom, like a bright beacon.

Then Zhu Gang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, as if planning for the future.

When Xie Yuer heard this, she frowned and said, "What will happen next?"

Her voice was slightly urgent, like a rushing stream.

Then Xie Yuer sat up straighter and looked at Zhu Gang nervously.

Zhu Gang put down the scroll in his hand and said, "He wants to discuss with Li Shenshen to determine a feasible plan.

Is there something inappropriate about it?"

His eyes were full of doubt, as if shrouded in fog.

Zhu Gang, who had already noticed something was wrong, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, seeming to be lost in thought.

Xie Yuer took out a letter of resignation from her sleeve. "This is what Zhang Changshi submitted this morning. He said that if Lin Bi's method is implemented, he will have no choice but to resign from the position of Changshi."

There was helplessness in her voice, like falling petals.

Zhu Gang took the resignation letter and read it carefully, looking a little annoyed.

“I only took a cursory look at the charter and didn’t even know that Lin Bi wanted to take action against the escort agency.

I will go find Zhang Changshi right away and make sure to keep this talented person."

Zhu Gang held the resignation letter tightly, as if thinking about how to deal with the situation.

Zhang Changshi was a talent selected through the imperial examination.

With his talents and hard work, he was appointed as the Chief Clerk of the Prince of Jin's Palace.

During his tenure, Zhang Changshi continued to accumulate experience and improve his management capabilities and political literacy.

At this moment, he was like a shining pearl, emitting dazzling light in the Prince Jin's Mansion.

When dealing with disputes within the palace, Zhang Changshi conducted careful investigations and mediated fairly.
