A Clash of Gods - Chapter 206

[Chapter 5 Rewards]

Ximen Shenhou’s body was shocked, and Ximen Zhanying also changed slightly.

After a while of silence, I suddenly saw Shenhou clapping his hands and exclaiming: “The young man is terrifying, little Marquis, the old man actually said by hearsay before that there was a slow-minded prince in Jinyihou’s mansion, but I only know today that the hearsay is really unbelievable, Little Marquis. Thoughtful and attentive, he is a seasoned case-handling expert, so he may not have thought about it.”

“Shen Hou is too much.” Being praised by the old detective, Qi Ning was really embarrassed, “Banmen made an axe and made Shen Hou laugh. The

Lord of God shook his head and said, “You don’t have to be humble.” Looking at Ximen Zhanying, he said, “Do you know what it means to listen to your words is better than ten years of reading? The Lord’s analysis is reasonable. You may Thinking of this?”

Although Ximen Zhanying felt that what Qi Ning said was very reasonable, he was still unwilling to say: “Dad, how do you know that he came up with this? If he went back and told his subordinates, his subordinates would help him. If

you think about it, it’s not unusual.”

“I don’t know how to repent.” The Marquis of God snorted coldly, “How many times have I told you that there must be my teacher in a threesome, so don’t be self-righteous.” Without looking at Ximen Zhanying, Xiang Qining Said: “Little Marquis, if you are not the Jinyi Marquis, the old man will definitely pull you to the Shenhou Mansion at all costs.”

Qi Ning laughed, this Ximen Shenhou was completely different from what Qi Ning had expected before. The slightest bit of pretence, although occasionally showing an air of indifference and self-arrogance, but the overall feeling is very approachable.

The speculation they were talking about consisted of drinking a few cups of home-cooked food. Qi Ning practiced swords late last night, and slept until noon before getting up for the banquet. He was already hungry on the way, plus the home-cooking done by Shenhou. The food was really delicious, and the two of them were not humble, they drank while eating, and it didn’t take long before three dishes had bottomed out.

The Marquis of God was not restrained when he saw Qi Ning, he was quite free and easy, but he was also quite happy.

Only Ximen Zhanying had a cold face. The two of them had a drink. She held up the wine jar next to her to help pour the wine. Seeing Qi Ning’s choking appearance, she turned her face away from time to time with a look of disdain.

“In this way, the

murderer is really likely to be an official of the court.” Shenhou drank a glass of wine and said thoughtfully: “The words of the little Hou, let the Shenhou mansion find its target.”

Ximen Zhanying He frowned and said, “Father, are you really going to send someone to investigate the military attachés in Beijing? There are not five or three hundred military attachés in the capital. Are you going to send them all out to keep an eye on them one by one? And if there are court officials involved? , can our Shenhou Mansion intervene?”

“Miss Ying, although there are many military officers, how many are good at light skills?” Qi Ning thought that this little girl’s skin was still too tender, and she still wanted to work in Shenhou Mansion. Now this comprehension, after ten years of experience, may not be able to become a teacher. “And the corpse has already shown that the murderer is practicing hard kung fu, and these two points can be combined to find officials with extremely high light kung fu and extremely powerful kung fu.

God Hou nodded and said, “That’s right.”

Ximen

Zhanying felt a little embarrassed and could only not speak.

“Shenhou, I was also drunk after drinking. I’m not sure if this is the case.” Qi Ning smiled and said, “But don’t let the Shenhou Mansion go astray because of my words.

” Yes.” Ximen Zhanying managed to catch Huatou, and immediately said: “Your words are only part of the clue, of course, the Shenhou Mansion will not mess up its own dimensions because of your few words, the Jinyi Houye will see it for himself. It’s too important.”

Qi Ning thought to himself if your little girl really wants to be my enemy, always picking things up, if you really want to find an opportunity, you have to teach you a good lesson.

Ximen Zhanying has a very straight body, long legs, buttocks, and a firm chest. She has a good appearance and a valiant temperament. It’s a pity that she is too cold, and it always looks like someone owes her money and won’t pay it back.

“Girl Ying said that, I’m relieved.” With Ximen Shenhou on the side, Qi Ning was calm and looked very cultivated, “Actually, it’s not necessarily only officials who can’t leave the capital, fortunately there are other things. People, and God Hou, Miss Ying is right, if the court officials are involved, can the Shenhou Mansion intervene?”

Ximen Shenhou smiled lightly,

(this chapter is not over, please turn the page) holding up the wine glass and said: “If it is the court’s Officials, you should do your duty and only do your own duty. But as an official, if you secretly use cruel methods to cultivate evil arts, then it will be a matter of the rivers and lakes.” He smiled and said, “Little Marquis, today you help Because of the busyness of Shenhou Mansion, this old man owes you a favor, tell me what you want, as long as the old man can take it out, feel free to speak.”

Qi Ning was stunned, and then laughed: “Shenhou is very polite, I It’s just a matter of lip service, how can you ask for the reward of the gods?”

“Little Marquis is wrong, this is solving a case, and it belongs to the official business of the court. Since the Marquis helps analyze the clues, it is helping the gods, and the gods can’t help but express. .” God Hou smiled.

Qi Ning looked at Ximen Zhanying, Ximen Zhanying was startled, he couldn’t help but take a step back and said coldly, “What are you looking at?

” God Hou wants you?

A cold face every day, there is no woman’s tenderness at all, like water, like a lump of ice, not only does it not warm people, but also makes people uncomfortable, not to mention that it is impossible for Shenhou to send his daughter out, even if there is such a thing. Possibly, you wouldn’t want to.

He thought for a moment, then smiled and said: “Shen Hou, since you have already spoken, it would be disrespectful if I declined. Why not, if God Hou is willing, how about sending me a painting?”

“Painting?” Shen Hou Yi startled.

“Yes, yes.” Qi Ning said with a smile: “I know that Shenhou is one of the four masters of art today, and his paintings are unrivaled. All of them can have a painting of Shenhou, and if Shenhou can bestow the calligraphy, I will be grateful.”

Ximen Zhanying hurriedly said: “Father, you said it yourself that you won’t give people the painting.”

Qi Ning was taken aback and sighed: “If this is the case, then it will not be embarrassing for the gods.” The

gods hesitated for a while before saying: “Little Marquis, I don’t hide it from you. When it comes to paintings, this old man is only a first glimpse of the door, and he has only a false reputation. However, he is regarded by others as one of the elites of the Four Arts. The old man used to like to make friends with people. In rivers and lakes, one must make friends on the rivers and lakes, so I have sent out a few paintings before, but!” Sighed: “I just didn’t expect that after those paintings were sent out, they would be sold, and the prices were extremely high. There was a lot of uproar, and many people were still talking behind their backs, saying that this old man is greedy for money, hehe, in fact, I don’t care what other people say, but it’s always unpleasant that my paintings are entangled with gold and silver.”

Qi Ningxin Immediately down.

He actually knew the name of the “Painting Master” of the Marquis of God, and the paintings from his pen should be very valuable. If he really got a painting, he would sell it to Yuan Rong. Yuan Rong made friends with many elegant people. , if you really want to sell it, you should be able to sell it for a good price.

Now that Shenhou said it directly, it made people a little embarrassed. Even if he got the painting, he would be embarrassed to sell it again, so he could only bite the bullet and say solemnly: “It’s really embarrassing. Shenhou, this kind of person who blasphemes art is really unacceptable.”

Shenhou laughed and said: “Little Houye said this, how can this old man be reluctant?” He got up and said, “Little Houye, follow this old man to the studio. , just pick a pair.”

Qi Ning was already full at this time, thinking that even if he really couldn’t sell it, it would be a good idea to hang an authentic “Painting” in the mansion. matter.

Ximen Zhanying waited by the side for a long time. She was already impatient, and hurriedly said: “Dad, then I will clean up and go back to Shenhou’s mansion.”

“No hurry.” Shenhou shook his head, as if seeing Ximen Zhan. Ying thought, “Make tea first.” Without saying much, she took Qi Ning to the studio.

Qi Ning took a few steps and looked back to see that Ximen Zhanying was staring at him coldly, blinked at Ximen Zhanying, and pretended to follow Ximen Shenhou.

Ximen Zhanying clenched his pink fist, his teeth itch with hatred.

After taking a few steps, he suddenly saw Qu Xiaocang coming in a hurry, and when he saw the Marquis of God, his expression became respectful, he quickened his pace, stepped forward and cupped his hands: “Marquis God!”

“What happened?” Marquis God frowned. .

(This chapter is not over, please turn the page) This is his private place, there is no special thing, except for his own daughter, no one dares to come in and out at will.

Qu Xiaocang glanced at Qi Ning, and Shenhou said, “It doesn’t matter if you say it.”

“Shenhou, the beggar gang seems to be in trouble.” Qu Xiaocang said, “The people from the investigation office have found that the beggar gang has some trouble these days. Something’s wrong, I’ve been staring at it for a few days, and I just came to report that a lot of people from the Beggar Gang seem to have died in the past two days.”

Shenhou was calm: “The Beggar Gang died? What’s going on?”

Qi Ning heard that it was a beggar .

He immediately paid attention to the help, but he turned around on purpose, as if he didn’t care about the affairs of the Shenhou Mansion.

“The specific situation is still under investigation.” Qu Xiaocang said: “Today our people are watching. The disciples of the Beggar Gang went out of the city and found that they took the corpse from the city and buried the corpse in the suburbs.

” There is a conflict between the forces of the beggar gang, or is there a civil strife in the beggar gang?” Shenhou asked indifferently: “Why didn’t you notice it before?”

Qu Xiaocang sweated on his forehead, and said: “Shenhou, the beggar gang, we have been staring at this. This incident happened very suddenly, and there were no signs in advance, and there was no sign of conflict between the Beggar Gang and other forces. According to the figures reported below, thirteen corpses have been sent out in the past two days, because the Beggar Gang was involved. The Tiger God Camp let them out, and also sent people to the Shenhou Mansion to report.”

Shenhou pondered for a while before saying: “Let Wenqu and Han Tianxiao investigate the matter in person, if it is really the beggar gang that is in trouble, directly let Xuanyuan Po and Han Tianxiao go to see Elder Suzaku in person, and ask them to give an explanation and tell Suzaku. Elder, no one can cause a riot in the capital, if the beggar gang can’t handle it themselves, we can only let me help you to deal with it.”

Qu Xiaocang respectfully said: “Disciple obey!” He bowed his body and retreated. .

Qi Ning knew that the so-called Big Dipper seven stars were Jumen, Greedy Wolf, Wenqu, Lucun, Lianzhen, Wuqu, and Pojun. That Han Tianxiao should be Captain Wenqu of the Big Dipper.

After Qu Xiaocang withdrew, Shenhou

Cai turned around and said with a smile: “Little Hou, let’s go to the studio.”

There was no table or chair, but a boxy wooden board was laid on the ground. The walls around it were antique. The four treasures of the study were placed on the edge of the large wooden board, and there were many drawing papers. The whole studio looked simple but free and easy.

On the left wall, a wire was pulled, and a clip was hung. The clip held several paintings and hung under the wire.

“These are some of the paintings that the old man is quite satisfied with.” Shenhou put his hands on his back, walked to the row of paintings, and said with a smile: “Little Hou, see which one you like, you can choose at will.”

Although Qi Ning is not interested in painting I have dabbled in it, but I really don’t know much about it. I can’t actually tell whether it is good or bad for such a high-level painting.

There are four paintings hanging, the first two are landscape paintings, the last two are paintings of galloping horses, and the other is of eagles spreading their wings in the sky. Although I don’t know the depth of the paintings, Qi Ning can clearly feel The majestic momentum in these paintings, the unrestrained and unrestrained connotation seems to be out of the paper.

He knows that brilliant paintings focus on meaning rather than form. The style of these paintings is smooth and free. Needless to say, the brushwork of his paintings is mainly because the majestic artistic conception can be fully displayed. In this regard, these four paintings are definitely first-class masterpieces.

There are four excellent works in front of you, but it is difficult to choose.

Qi Ning lowered his head and was about to think about which pair to choose. Suddenly, he noticed that there were several pieces of drawing paper lying in a mess not far from his feet. One of the paintings seemed to be unformed, with only a few strokes. , seems to be a few floating clouds, but I can’t be sure. I picked it up in the past, opened it, and asked, “Shen Hou, why isn’t this painting hanging?”

“Oh?” Said: “This is done at will, and you can do graffiti with your own hands. Xiaohou should not like it.”

“No, no.” Qi Ning stared at the painting and said, “Shen Hou, why do I look at this painting? It’s a bit abstract. Meaning.”

Shenhou was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt: “Abstract school? Xiaohou, what does that mean?”
