Chapter 147 Soul Painting "You dare to say it!"The princess bluntly asked the emperor to help her to trap the prince. This was simply the first time in history! But Emperor Xuanwu was not angry at all, and even laid out new drawing paper: "What kind of painting do you want?" "Father, you have read the Capital Weekly, so you must have seen the illustrations I drew, right?" Seeing that the other party didn't even need to ask, Yun Shu took the initiative to offer to customize a painting for her. She happily went over and said: "Just draw a picture for me in that style!" "Your illustrations?" Emperor Xuanwu paused while dipping his pen into ink, and a look of indescribable expression appeared on his face: "The one that looks like a dead tree branch with a circle on top, and they insist it's a human thing?" "That's the one!" What’s a soul painting without stick figures? Yun Shu clapped his hands and gave a round of praise with an extremely affirmative tone: "Let's just say that you, Your Majesty, had a sudden inspiration and wanted to try out my painting style, so you just casually drew a picture. Otherwise, Father, your painting skills are so superb. If you perform normally, even if there are some mistakes, the final product will still be good. I am not willing to give it to my brother, the Crown Prince!" "You are right!"
Emperor Xuanwu snorted and laughed, obviously very happy with Yunshu's flattery. After raising his hand and gesturing twice on the drawing paper, he still felt a bit at a loss as to where to start. "But isn't it a bit strange to draw a tree branch figure on such a large piece of paper?" "Then let's draw a comic strip!" Yun Shu stretched out his hand and gestured a few times on the drawing paper: "Just like what I drew in the Capital Weekly, each small picture presents a scene. Father, please draw a few more scenes on this paper that can be connected together to form a complete short story." "That sounds interesting." Emperor Xuanwu was somewhat interested: "So what little story do you want?" "Well..." A sly look flashed across Yun Shu's eyes. He finished the painting first according to her request, and then followed her instructions and added the words with his left hand. Only then did Emperor Xuanwu, who was convinced that she had scolded the crown prince, said: "..." "you……" "Father!" Before Emperor Xuanwu could start to scold her, Yun Shu put away the sly smile on her face that was like a little fox, and her face changed into an innocent and well-behaved look in a second: "I suddenly feel that this painting seems a bit excessive." "You think you're overdoing it? So what? You don't want this painting anymore?" Emperor Xuanwu raised his eyebrows, and felt that she was up to something bad again, so he pretended to tear up the painting. As expected, the little fox stepped forward, immediately took the painting in his hands, and retorted seriously: "Yes! Father, you have already painted it, why don't you want it? Besides, no matter how excessive it is, it is not as excessive as what the prince did!" This is true. Emperor Xuanwu leaned back in his chair leisurely, and did not intend to take the painting back. He just glanced at her unhappily: "Then what you just said hypocritically was too much?"
"How can that be considered hypocritical?" Yun Shu argued righteously: "My son thinks that this painting is damaged, but that does not conflict with my wish to give it to my brother, the Crown Prince! However, I am more concerned about the overall situation. I think it would not be good if the Crown Prince got angry and did something bad to him. So I would like to ask you if I can bring a doctor with me, just in case." Emperor Xuanwu: “?” He said that as soon as the brat's tail lifted, he knew he was up to no good! Why bring a doctor just in case? It's obvious that he feels that one painting is not enough and he wants to make the prince even angrier! "Father?" Knowing that it was impossible to hide his little tricks from Emperor Xuanwu, Yun Shu played the game of "putting all his little tricks on the table". Seeing that Emperor Xuanwu did not agree immediately, She blatantly began to flatter the prince again - "Father, do you think that I am too kind and soft-hearted? In fact, these sons and ministers themselves know this, but there is nothing they can do because they value family ties the most. Although my brother the Crown Prince may not care much about me, his sister, and even thought of destroying me, But it doesn’t matter. The Grand Tutor once said that a gentleman should repay evil with virtue. Although I am a woman…” "okay!" She keeps complaining about the prince every other sentence, and she's still acting it out here! Emperor Xuanwu glared at her even more unhappily: "The sentence after 'repay evil with kindness' is 'how to repay kindness'. Why don't you say it?" "Really? I don't know!" Yun Shu smiled a little embarrassedly with eyes full of clarity that had not been tainted by knowledge: "Your Majesty, you also know that I am not well educated and am still repeating my studies in the study room." "..." This is a poor performance! Emperor Xuanwu waved his hands repeatedly in disdain: "Get out! Don't get in my way here." "What about the imperial physician..." Yun Shu asked again without giving up. "what ever!" He helped to paint the picture, so what would happen if there was one more imperial physician? Emperor Xuanwu, who didn't want to be pestered by her and continue to act, responded without thinking: "You can do whatever you want, but don't bother me anymore!" "My dear father, I thank you!" The goal had been achieved, so Yun Shu naturally would not force him to stay any longer. She held the scroll in both hands and ran away without looking back, leaving only a cheerful voice floating in the air - "My son, please retire!" …… From the moment Yun Shu entered the imperial study, Yun Chuhuan, who had been squatting under a tree looking for ants, had his feet numb from squatting before he finally saw his fifth sister coming out with a scroll of paintings. He quickly stood up, rubbing his leg with a grimace, and limped over to Yun Shu: "Fifth sister, why did you take so long in there?" "I did some work."
Yun Shu weighed the scroll in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and his whole body was filled with joy: "Let's go. We have to go to the Imperial Hospital again." "Why go to the Imperial Hospital?" Yun Chuhuan stamped his feet: "My leg is just from squatting for too long, there's no need to see a doctor!" "Who said it was for you to see?" Yun Shu said in a leisurely tone: "Can't it be... taken to the Crown Prince?" Bring it to the Crown Prince? Yun Chuhuan was stunned for a moment, then he was horrified: "Fifth sister, you finally can't help it and want to stab the Crown Prince? That won't do! Assassinating the prince is a serious crime. Even if you get away with it, your father will beat you up!" Yun Shu: “……?” Not to mention, if the consequence of stabbing the prince was just a beating by her father, she would really be tempted! Unfortunately this is not realistic. Yun Shu rolled his eyes: "Shut up, you!"
