Chapter 333 What I Have to Say (5)
King Ning came from Concubine Xiao, the third son of the emperor, older than King Qin, and also a mansion awarded by the adult prince.The whitewash on the heavy doors with cornices is very conspicuous in the night of the north wind, and the golden rings on the rich doors all show the identity of the owner.

King Ning was appreciating the paintings when he heard someone reply: "Young Master Yu from the Ministry of Industry, please see me." King Ning has recognized him since he was a child, and it was not too late, so he was not surprised that Yu Linqi came: "Bring him in."

After a while, Yu Linqi came in and saluted. King Ning was very interested: "What's so interesting recently? How about looking at my painting?" There was a picture of a beautiful woman on the table, and the clothes were scattered like flowers.Yu Linqi thought about it carefully, and then said, "Cao Yi comes out of the water, and Wu belt is in the wind. At first glance, this is Wu Daozi's painting, but you can take a closer look at this painting."

King Ning put his narrowed eyes on his face like pinpoints, and said without changing his smile, "How?" Yu Linqi took another look generously, and said with a smile: "Although this is not an authentic painting, the painter has a lot of skills and is a human being. .”

"Haha, since you were young, it seems that you have never passed by." Ning Wang stroked his forehead and smiled, dropped the painting and said, "Make my good tea and give it to Yu Gongzi." Then he smiled and looked at Yu Linqi: "You, you , sometimes I wonder, how can there be such a pair of eyes?"

Yu Linqi thanked him and said with a smile: "I have heard these things since I was a child, and these are the things I have seen with my eyes. When it comes to appreciating paintings, most of the authentic works are seen at the prince's place. I have a pair of good eyesight, and I was guided by the prince. .”

King Ning went to the sitting room, sat down with Yu Linxi as guest and host, and said with a smile: "That's right, the aristocratic families in Beijing are different from other places. A few days ago, someone recommended a talented person from the south of the Yangtze River, who claimed to be good at everything. If you are familiar with it, give him a few things from the palace, he never said that he has seen it."

"My lord, show him the tributes from Goryeo and other small countries. How can he recognize the origin and name?" Yu Linqi laughed, and King Ning also laughed. Pointing to the lid of the tea bowl, he was still laughing: "I want talents, but I just hate those who are trying to gain fame. I have seen three or two things and dare to say that I know elegance; I dare to be called a gangster with a few skills."

The lid of the tea bowl was half lifted, causing a cloud of tea mist and then stopped. King Ning said to Yu Linqi appreciatively: "If you want to say that the person who can recognize things is a son from an old family in Beijing, if you Linqi , is a talent."

Yu Linqi smiled modestly, as if he had something to say, and drank tea first.King Ning could see his thoughts, and only smiled after he tasted it; "You only come here to look at me?"

"No, I have something to go back to the lord." Yu Linxi could clearly see that he was phrasing, and Ning Wang smiled. Like all the princes, he has a face like a crown jade, a noble demeanor, and his style is different from others .In this regard, he is the same as Mr. Yu, Mr. Yu Linqi is a young man with a very calm attitude.

Yu Linqi said, "My lord, do you still remember the General Ningyuan Guo Pu I mentioned before?" Something like a needlepoint flashed in King Ning's eyes, but Yu Linqi didn't see it, even if he saw him, he wouldn't take it to heart In fact, the political opinions among the princes are the same as the political opinions of his father and himself in the court, sometimes they can be big or small.

He only looked at King Ning, waiting for his next words.King Ning recovered freely, and left the unprotected Wang Sun Xuan behind, and asked with a friendly smile: "Is it Guo Pu who has been ill for more than a year? Oh, I remember that he spends a lot of money a year, They are all leaving the government. The censors have said twice, Liao Yizhi also stopped, and Qin Wanghuangdi also came to stop, which one is it?"

In front of King Ning, Yu Linqi helped Guo Pu and said, "He is seriously injured." At this point, Yu Linqi felt ashamed. This was the first time in more than a year that Hopu refused. If you listen to yourself again, are you angry with yourself?

All along, Yu Linqi thought that he was the one who was angry.He appreciates Guo Pu, but he has the arrogance of a nobleman in his bones.Just like what King Ning said just now, the people with real eyesight are still from the old family in Beijing.King Ning was born in the royal family, and Concubine Xiao was from a famous family. King Ning inevitably has arrogance. He has never seen Jiangnan talented people using tributes from small countries to make things difficult for him.

This kind of arrogance is the innate contempt of scholar-bureaucrats for those who are inferior to their own, so others don't like Yu Linqi, and only Guo Pu, an upward-minded person, wants to get along with Yu Linqi. At that time, he didn't see it at all.

With this arrogance, when Yu Linqi heard that the Lu family had retired and Guo Pu agreed, he would be as angry as he wanted, and as angry as he wanted.This kind of resentment can't take root at all, but it is based on the arrogance of the aristocratic family, and they have their reasons.

Guo Pu was born in a businessman, so his background will not work; if he works hard on his own, his background will lag behind.Yu Linqi felt that he had tried his best to persuade the Lu family to marry Guo Pu, but he didn't want to be seriously injured, and the Lu family dared to withdraw the marriage when they said they would withdraw from Guo Pu.

There are too many self-made people in the world, but the aristocratic family has such an innate arrogance, and it is also an existence.

Today Yu Linqi was annoyed, Hopu must be angry.Thinking about how he was still running around for him, Mr. Yu immediately felt that he was noble and good enough to be a friend.

He said carefully to King Ning: "This matter is like this... Mr. Lu is my relative, but he listens to the prince most. If you are willing to speak, the marriage will still be accomplished."

King Ning thought in his heart, but smiled: "It's so cool, why do I care about this?" Yu Linqi strongly recommended: "Guo Houpu is talented, and he is a disciple recognized by Marshal Liao Yizhi himself. This is not easy. .”

"Liao Yi can be regarded as my imperial uncle, but the person he likes, can't I just go forward?" King Ning's heart was already active, but his mouth was still not relaxed.

Yu Linqi's eyes deepened, and he was very serious: "The prince loves talents the most, and he was going to recommend him to him, but he didn't want him to be seriously injured and bedridden. He will recover after a year or so, so it can be seen that this person survived a catastrophe, and there must be future blessings. He arrived in Beijing today, Linqi dare not hide it from the prince."

King Ning intentionally hesitated again, before he chuckled: "You said it, I'll give you this face, I will talk to Master Lu tomorrow, let this marriage be renewed, this Guo... what?"

"A single character is a Pu character, and the table character is Magnolia."

"Let this Guo Houpu settle down in Beijing. Talents, of course, must have a job in Beijing. No matter how many foreign officials there are, we in Beijing will be closer." King Ning said relaxedly, Yu Linqi was overjoyed, and got up Lifting his clothes and bowing down: "Thank you, my lord!"

When he knelt down, Yu Linqi was full of pride. This bow was for Magnolia.

Saying goodbye to King Ning and going out, the north wind didn't blow away Yu Linqi's face.Going home from Prince Ning's Mansion, passing Master Lu's house.Yu Linqi was hesitant, and asked the person following him to ask at the door, saying that Master Lu had fallen asleep, so Yu Linqi gave up, and if he didn't, he would visit Lu's house tonight.

In the north wind, Mr. Yu went home full of spring breeze, and walked in and dismounted more cheerfully than usual, so he laughed to himself, realizing that he had lost the calmness of the son of the aristocratic family.
