Chapter 458 - A Huge Drama
Chapter 458: A Huge Drama
Zhao Xuzhi took the paintings and saw that they were three pictures of orchids.
They were extremely beautiful. The orchids were as light as a young girl. One of the pictures was soft and gentle, and the color was vibrant. The fragrance of the picture seemed to come to one’s face. The other painting was sharp, and the ink swirled and outlined the shape of the picture. It was as if it was made by nature. Another picture was vivid, and there was a cliff, the rocks were uneven, and a blue sparrow looked down from above. It was as if one had entered the painting and seen the interest with their own eyes.
Zhao Xuzhi was stunned for a moment.
His hand that was holding onto the painting tightened.
He rarely painted flowers and birds. The reason being the layout was too small, he did not like it.
He painted more mountains and rivers, and it was majestic.
However, he also admitted that these three orchids were very good. They were about the same level as the flower and bird paintings that he occasionally painted.
“Your Highness clearly knows that I love mountains and rivers the most. Are you making things difficult for me by showing me these flowers and birds? Also…” Zhao Xuzhi’s temper rose, “Your Highness said that these three paintings were painted by the students from Orchid Courtyard. Is that it?”
Although Zhao Xuanjing was the Crown Prince, he should not insult him like that.
His father was Prince Ning Bei, the Emperor’s cousin!
As for the Crown Prince…
Zhao Xuzhi secretly sneered. Today, he was the Crown Prince, but he might not be tomorrow!
No matter how incompetent he was, Zhao Xuzhi could still be a Commandery Prince in the future. However, what about the Crown Prince? Since ancient times, how many of the crippled Crown Princes had a good ending?
They were either imprisoned or killed long ago. They might not even have a descendant!
Right now, the Crown Prince was more honorable than him, but in a few more years, things would be different!
“It seems that you admit that your paintings of flowers and birds are not as good as these three?” The Crown Prince’s lips curled into a cold smile. He was so domineering that he was like a solitary eagle. Everything in front of him had become his prey.
“The flowers and birds that I usually paint are not many. They are slightly stronger than these three. I’m extremely good at landscape paintings, and the ladies should be slightly lacking in landscape painting. It’s perfect for me to teach them. I knew that the previous teacher’s teachings in Orchid Courtyard were not comprehensive, so I took the initiative to come here to fill the gap,” Zhao Xuzhi’s aura also rose.
There was a fierce glint in his eyes, and his back was straight. He did not give in to any of his words.
The Crown Prince sat directly on the teacher’s seat. He was cold and proud, cool and slender, dignified and stern, as well as resolute.
At that moment, the ladies of Orchid Courtyard had collapsed and their hearts were in a tremor.
What… kind of big drama was playing today?!
The two people who were like spiritual jade were going to start a fight in their academy?
They were so nervous.
They were also inexplicably excited.
The Crown Prince was as bright as the moon, shining and radiant, irreplaceable.
However, Zhao Xuzhi was not bad either. He was as beautiful as the stars and had a different appearance.
The Crown Prince sat there quietly, making people feel quite comfortable. He was indeed more dignified and magnanimous than Zhao Xuzhi.
Occasionally, when his gaze swept past them, he was calm and indifferent. He did not seem to have any sense of overstepping his boundaries. As for Zhao Xuzhi…
The words he said to them earlier sounded a little impetuous. Although they felt that he was very handsome and touching, they were all well-mannered young ladies. They knew that as a teacher, he should not be affected so easily.
“You and I have our own opinions. If you go on, it will only add to the joke. Since you are good at painting mountains and rivers, then you can invite anyone among these students. The two of you can paint on the spot. Xiao Yurong can come and comment on it. If you can’t compare, then you will leave obediently. Is that okay?” The Crown Prince started to stir up trouble.
Zhao Xuzhi snorted, “Sure.”
“Okay, then… who should we choose?” The Crown Prince smiled faintly.
