"I still thought that Judge Zheng was omnipotent, it turned out that painting still needs to be practiced" Li Longji was in a good mood, and readily agreed to Zheng Peng's request: "Lux, you can pick a few for Zheng Aiqing in a while, and let him go back and practice well." ”

"Yes."

Zheng Peng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him.

After eating and drinking, Li Longji and his brothers happily went to play polo, saying that after playing polo, they would eat together and watch song and dance performances.

"Judge Zheng, please wait here first, General Gao will be here soon." The little eunuch said respectfully.

Gao Lishi has a position of the right prison guard general, in charge of the affairs of the internal service province, and the internal treatment likes to call him General Gao, and the little eunuch says General Gao, that is, Gao Lishi.

Zheng Peng nodded when he heard this: "Understood, there is a little father-in-law." ”

After waiting for about half an hour, Gao Lishi was late, and when he saw Zheng Peng, he arched his hand and said, "You have to arrange Your Majesty and a few princes before you can get out, but it makes Judge Zheng wait for a long time." ”

"Don't dare, Grandpa Gao is the most trusted person of His Majesty, naturally he is busy with official business, and he is tired of Grandpa Gao." Zheng Peng said humbly.

Gao Lishi is Li Longji's hardcore confidant, that is, the prince and princess have to greet him when they see him, and the prince and minister want to say something to him depends on his mood, and now he speaks in a slightly arrogant tone, Zheng Peng knows that this is already preferential treatment.

If you do a good job in front of you, you can also add a lot of points if you promise to send him a bicycle, otherwise, Colliers is not so easy to talk to.

Gao Lishi smiled, motioned for Zheng Peng to follow him, and said as he walked: "Judge Zheng, go, the miscellaneous family will take you to pick up the paintings." ”

The paintings of the palace are either fine or treasures, just take a few pieces, and you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and you can finally pick a painting, Zheng Peng responded with some excitement, and followed Gao Lishi into the Hongwen Pavilion.

At this time, the officials were on duty, and only one small official was on duty, and under the leadership of Gao Lishi, Zheng Peng walked out easily.

Gao Lishi was very familiar with this place, and he didn't need a small official to lead the way, so he took Zheng Peng to a secret room with a familiar car, pointed to the paintings in the secret room, and said generously: "Judge Zheng, the paintings are here, pick a few you like and take them away." ”

“... Yes, yes, there is Lao Gao's father-in-law. Zheng Peng said absent-mindedly.

It is said to be a secret room, but it is actually a hall with hundreds of square meters, and the hall is divided into two parts, half is to collect all kinds of books and materials, and the other is to store all kinds of calligraphy and paintings.

Some of the paintings and calligraphy are hung on the wall, some are spread on the table, some are rolled up and placed in porcelain vases, and some are piled up on the shelves, to say the least, there are thousands of paintings.

The emperor is the emperor, and the collection is really rich.

"Hehe, Judge Zheng, how is it, look at it." Colliers asked, a little amused.

"It's not a dazzling eye, but an eye-opener, there are tens of thousands of works here, right?"

"This month's album has not yet been reported, if the miscellaneous family is not mistaken, there are 4,362 paintings and 3,767 calligraphy in the Hongwen Museum, a total of 8,129 paintings." Gao Lishi said calmly.

Zheng Peng was stunned for a moment, and then turned to his admiration for Gaolis.

Gao Lishi and Li Longji have experienced hardships together, and they will not be separated when Li Longji is most helpless and panicked, the two have a deep relationship, as a prince, Li Longji has a lot of old people around him, but none of them are as favored as Gao Lishi, in addition to feelings and loyalty, ability is also a very important reason.

The number of calligraphy and paintings in Hongwenguan, Gao Lishi opened his mouth to say, indicating that he has put a lot of effort, and it can also be seen from here that Gao Lishi can have today's status, which is inseparable from his talent and ability.

No wonder the emperor dared to hand over the folds to him.

Zheng Peng complimented a few more words, and then began to choose.

There is no need to read the collection of books, Zheng Peng is not interested in it, and his main focus is on the calligraphy and painting area.

After turning around, Zheng Peng quickly had a number in his heart: there are many calligraphy and paintings in the court, but fortunately, there are special people to manage them, and they are carefully divided into several categories, which are roughly divided into five categories: portraits, portraits of emperors, flowers, birds, insects and fish, landscapes, and court life.

Forget about the portraits, most of the paintings are portraits of concubines, if you pick these back, it will be miserable for people to think that they have bad intentions;

The portrait of the emperor can't be wanted, this is the Tang Dynasty, take the portrait of the emperor back, then you have to set up an incense case to worship sooner or later, if you accidentally damage it, you have to let people participate in a copy, saying that you can take it back and copy it, if one day Li Longji has a whim, let himself paint him, then the eyes are not eyes, the nose is not the nose, and the training is even counted, if you add a big charge of disrespect, there will be no tears when you cry;

Remove two items, flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscapes, and court life can be selected.

After making up his mind, Zheng Peng began to flip up.

When Zheng Peng was picking paintings, Gao Lishi was drinking tea leisurely on the side, and the small officials on duty were very on the road, not letting go of the opportunity to please Gao Lishi, and serving tea and snacks early.

After waiting in the Imperial Garden for most of the day, his mouth was a little dry and his stomach was hungry, so he took the opportunity to take a rest, but while he was sitting, Gao Lishi suddenly said: "Judge Zheng, which one are you looking for a painting?" Still haven't found it yet? ”

I thought that Zheng Peng would leave after a while, to know that the palace collection, the quality is not much worse, but Zheng Peng kept checking, opening the picture scroll for a while, and checking the label for a while, the big pot of tea was almost all into Gao Lishi's stomach, and the dim sum was almost the same, and seeing that Zheng Peng didn't pick a painting, he couldn't help but ask.

Gao Lishi still has to serve Li Longji.

Zheng Peng hesitated for a moment, and soon said with a smile: "Gonggong Gao, I have been longing for the works of painters such as Wu Daozi, Xue Sitong, and Zhanziqian for a long time, and I want to find an authentic painting to go back and copy it well, but there are too many paintings here, and I can't find it after looking for so long, so Gonggong Gao has been waiting for a long time." ”

Zheng Peng wants to pick a few famous paintings back, but he can find paintings like Qian Xiangsheng, Hua Zifeng, He Zhang, Zhang Song and others, all of whom have never heard of it, how can Zheng Peng be willing?

was so focused on finding a painting that I almost forgot about the existence of Colliers.

When Gao Lishi heard this, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and soon laughed: "Judge Zheng, you have been looking for so long, are you looking for paintings by famous artists such as Wu Daozi, Xue Sitong, and Zhan Ziqian?" ”

"Yes" Zheng Peng said very simply: "To become a recognized master, there must be a lot of learning and merit, and a certain has long been very yearning for these famous masters, and he just took this opportunity to realize his dream." ”

Gao Lishi smiled: "Judge Zheng, your vision is not bad. ”

Zheng Peng was trying to be modest, and then asked Gao Lishi to help him find it, after all, he was so familiar with this place, but he didn't expect that before the words came out, Gao Lishi continued: "To say a bad news, what Judge Zheng wanted, Hongwen Hall didn't have it." ”
