The people around Shangguan Jin basically changed regularly, so she didn't have any friends of the same age.

Those who had the chance to meet her all respectfully addressed her as "Your Highness".

"Not very good, very boring and lonely."

So Shangguan Jin’s answer surprised Lin Li a little.

"I have lived in Chang'an Courtyard since I was a child, right next to the imperial study."

"The only one who plays with me is Jin."

"your friend?"

Lin Li nodded tentatively.

Shangguan Jin just shrugged his shoulders:

"A turtle, three years older than me."

Ah this...

The royal life is indeed a bit hard to describe.

"I have been watched by many people since I was a child. Although I know that they are all arranged by my father to protect me, I still feel a little uncomfortable."

"So, I'm quite happy to be able to go out for a walk alone. Thank you for accompanying me."

Her Royal Highness the Princess made a secret trip this time, using the excuse of needing to rest early, and deliberately avoided her entourage.

Only Lin Li was with him.

Therefore, Shangguan Jin bowed slightly to the young man.

Her Royal Highness the Princess bowed to him.

I'm flattered.

"It's just a casual stroll, I can't say thank you or not."

Lin Li waved his hand.

He was surprised for a while when Her Royal Highness the Princess asked Chu Jiangli to find him.

"Family members, don't miss it if you pass by! The calligraphy master who travels all over the northern border will write a Chinese character for everyone on the street today. Family members who have money can pay to support the event, and those who don't can go home and get some money to support the event!"

Lin Li put his hands in his sleeves and walked with Shangguan Jin on the streets of Xuanyi City.

In the square where four roads meet.

It's very crowded at this moment.

Shangguan Jin, who was avoiding the people around him, heard the voice and immediately stood on tiptoe out of curiosity.

She has seen many calligraphy masters in her home.

His handwriting was really beautiful, but he had a very stubborn temper, so he was dragged away and beheaded.

There are some people whose handwriting is not as good as chicken feet, but who speak nicely and get a seat as a guest of honor but do nothing.

This is at best a lonely art form used by the royal family to entertain themselves in their leisure time.

Shangguan Jin is used to it.

But this was the first time the princess had seen someone showing off loudly in the street.

Not to mention the so-called calligraphy master whose hair and beard almost dragged on the ground, Shangguan Jin had never even heard of him.

The North is well-known, so the royal family should keep a close eye on it, right?

Otherwise, how can we say that the foundation of our country is culture rather than military power?

"It's the Master again."

Just when Her Royal Highness the Princess was really curious.

Lin Li, who had seen through the situation long ago, pressed his temple and sighed helplessly.

Here comes another great acting master who came out of nowhere to fool people.

In the past, someone used this master's name to do live broadcasts, making some weird noises and then painting a "Chinese landscape painting".

I never thought that this art form even existed in the ancient times when people practiced Taoism. The older generation of artists really have unlimited potential.

I could tell there was no kindness in the boy's tone.

Shangguan Jin seemed to understand something as well.

But curiosity still made her want to try something new.

So Lin Li led Her Royal Highness the Princess to find a corner and slowly squeezed in.

as predicted.

When I saw the master who pretended to be profound drink a pot of strong liquor, holding the brush with his feet and writing quickly on the huge rice paper.

Shangguan Jin's expression hidden behind the veil suddenly became embarrassed.

"This……"

“Performance art, just for fun.”

It turns out that the trend of the times is a circle, and it is just repeating history.

The so-called calligraphy master who had no need to jump around deliberately sketched out a few glimpses of characters on paper, so vague that even the shape of the characters was barely discernible.

Especially when the group of onlookers kept clapping and cheering.

And by the way, scatter some silver dollars and copper coins.

Lin Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment.

"Performance Art?"

Under the veil, Shangguan Jin tilted her neck slightly, seemingly not understanding what our senior brother was talking about.

However, the so-called master's accomplishments truly opened Her Royal Highness the Princess's eyes.

Xuanyi City is considered the largest city in the North, so how come there are still scammers like this hanging around on the streets?

The people here are not stupid.

Shangguan Jin looked at the four big characters on the rice paper, but couldn't make any sense of them.

Is that a word? I don't think so. Let's take another look.

Then the master's assistant spoke up:

"Master's own handwriting, Chunchi Yanyun, is there anyone who wants it? The price starts from one or two, the highest bidder wins, the highest bidder wins!"

puff--

Lin Li, who had just picked up the gourd and drank a few sips, sprayed mist all over the person in front of him.

"Oh, what are you doing!"

"Sorry, sorry, I choked."

Lin Li quickly apologized.

Those people also looked at the young man in Taoist robes and his otherworldly appearance, not like an ordinary person, so they didn't dare to pursue the matter. They just changed their seats while cursing.

Chunchi Yanyun?

Lin Li couldn't hold back when he suddenly thought of the four-character classic QTMD.

There has to be a limit to bragging.

"Why, did you figure out those four words?"

Shangguan Jin approached the young man cautiously. Lin Li's surprised reaction just now made Her Royal Highness the Princess a little confused.

"No, no."

Lin Li tried to hold back his laughter, but saw that the people around him were actually scrambling to grab the ghost-drawn talisman.

This casual auction even jumped up by a few taels of silver!

"Three liang!"

what?

The smile on Lin Li's lips suddenly froze, and he couldn't quite believe his ears.

"Do you know this guy?"

As someone who had always lived in the mountains, Lin Li certainly didn’t know many calligraphers.

But Shangguan Jin also shook his head:

“Never.”

"Then where did he come from? Isn't this just a ghost painting..."

"Five taels, one price!"

Suddenly, a cold voice that Lin Li was very familiar with rang out among the crowd.

Everyone looked over.

The girl had silver hair and a lifelike lotus between her eyebrows. She was holding a bag of silver with a look of determination on her face.

"Bai Lanyu?"

Lin Li's sudden daze made Shangguan Jin also notice the unique girl.

He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is full of heroic spirit.

——Could it be possible that they know each other?

03. Come more, come more. (Monthly ticket plus update 02/12)

Five taels of silver is not a large sum of money, and using it to buy a painting is indeed not cost-effective.

While there is no more booing in the audience.

Bai Lanyu, who had been strolling around Xuanyi City for a long time, accepted the calligraphy with satisfaction.

She carefully put the scroll into her bag and whispered:

"My senior brother likes to draw, so he shouldn't dislike calligraphy or something like that."

"Give this calligraphy to my senior brother first, and then see if there is anything else I can give him. I will go shopping again."

The sword in the sect competition was like a hole in Bai Lanyu's heart.

Even though Lin Li had already said it didn't matter.

But that experience still left Bai Lanyu with lingering fears.

That was Lin Li, the eldest senior brother who had been taking care of him ever since he entered the sect.

As a result, Bai Lanyu pierced his chest with a sword and even "stole" the Changshengtian that should have belonged to him.

What a sin.

Ouch!

In order to avoid the crowds, Bai Lanyu even chose to walk forward on the edge of the street, but suddenly she bumped her head hard.

The confused girl immediately squatted down, holding her head with both hands and mumbling for a while, then quickly raised her eyes:

"Don't you walk too long... eyes... ah..."

The voice that should have been condemning the stranger gradually weakened after Bai Lanyu saw who was coming.

"Master... Senior Brother, why are you here too? What a coincidence, hahaha."

As she spoke, Bai Lanyu was still in a hurry to put away the package on her back.

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

Lin Li deliberately leaned to the right.

Bai Lanyu immediately turned the backpack in the opposite direction.

The senior brother leaned to the left again.
