Chapter 63
Chapter 63
Li Xingchui was wondering, and saw Zhong Wan excitedly following Sophia and his party to the door to meet the so-called Mr. Verrocchio.He became vigilant and followed closely behind, ready to see what kind of character Verrocchio was, who made Zhong Wan care so much.
The cat owner followed aggressively. As soon as he reached the steps, he overlooked a handsome young man who got off the carriage. He looked about 20 years old, and his appearance was so beautiful that people could appreciate it even if he was separated by race. .Just as Li Xingchui was considering whether to drag him away directly, the young man reached out to help an old man down.This person has half-white hair and hale and hearty spirit, nodding and smiling at Sofia and his party.
Sophia immediately went up to greet her, and Zhong Wan also stood on a slightly higher step to watch.Seeing that the so-called Mr. Verrocchio was an old man, Li Xing felt at ease. He listened carefully to the movement around him, and waved his hand to summon a wild sparrow to come over and inject a little spiritual energy.
His series of actions fell into the eyes of the young man. The other party thoughtfully, looked up and down the two men who were obviously different in dress and appearance from them, and then looked back.
After Sofia and Verrocchio finished their greetings, they glanced at the handsome man standing beside him appreciatively, and asked, "Who is this?"
Verrocchio stroked his beard and laughed, "This is my favorite disciple. Come, Leonardo, I have met Princess Sofia."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Wan immediately stood at the most favorable position to watch the most perfect representative of the Renaissance.His special attention could not escape the sight of the guard Peter, who whispered something in Princess Sophia's ear, and immediately reminded everyone present.
"Mr. Verrocchio, these are two capable men from Middle Earth. You must not imagine their supernatural power!" Li Xingchui was not at all interested in Sophia's enthusiastic praise, but Zhong Wan heard the discussion of these believers , roughly figured out the itinerary of Princess Sofia and her party.
It turned out that she had made a request to the Pope before she came to Moscow after a long journey from Rome, saying that she wanted the famous painter Verrocchio to paint her last portrait before she got married.But at that time, Verrocchio was working with Leonardo Da Vinci to create the mural of "The Baptism of Christ" for the Vallombrosa Order, so there was no time.However, it is a pity that he should have given up on this, but because of the curiosity of his student Leonardo da Vinci, the young painter said that he was very interested in the Polar Bear Teaching in the Principality of Moscow.
Zhong Wan remembered that when he read Da Vinci's life, he had never heard of him coming to Moscow. It seems that this changed religion still affected the existence and growth trajectory of many historical figures.
After the two painters came to the palace, they rested for another day before starting to paint. During this period, the cat owner was rolling around. He must tell Zhong Wan why, who is that amazing and handsome man, and why he pays so much attention to him? , and most importantly, why did that person keep staring at his idiot the same way all day long!
When Li Xingchui became irritable, the guards and maids in the palace began to panic.It is hard not to remind people of Zeus, the god of gods in Greek mythology, with the big move he showed just now to drive thunder and lightning. Although they believe in the golden lion/white bear, this does not prevent them from being afraid of the power of Middle Earth!
"Mr. Li is really affectionate to Mr. Zhong, you can't leave him without a glance!"
"It's a pity that Mr. Zhong seems to be more interested in the new little painter."
"What's the matter, I prefer to see the three of them together."
The conscientious little sparrow translated all the sounds around to Li Xing to listen to. He was shocked by the weirdness of the people here, and he couldn't help thinking.It seems that Ah Wan didn't feel very touched when he heard this. Could it be that in the era when he came, married people could mess around so casually?
Zhong Wan was completely unaware of his anxiety, taking advantage of Verrocchio's portrait of Sofia, he lay down on the soft bed of the greenhouse and basked in the sun to take a nap, surrounded by the blooming flowers in the greenhouse, very comfortable.
Li Xinghang scratched his stomach, lay down behind a sunflower and looked at his idiot in confusion.He had eaten too much at noon and had accumulated food, so he was lazy and didn't want to move at the moment.But soon, he pricked up his ears, listening to the sound of gently approaching footsteps.Li Xingchui's tail stood up when he recognized who the footsteps came from.He originally wanted to rush out to defend his territory, but thinking of the problems he had been struggling with earlier, he decided to stand still and see how Zhong Wan reacted.
Leonardo stepped into the flower room with light pink and orange petals, and his tight and narrow waist clothes made his wide shoulders and narrow hips even more sexy.Li Xingchui sneered, thinking disapprovingly, do you think my Ah Wan is someone who is easily confused by these things? He obviously likes cute things, such as cats that can meow. He is not interested in you!
Just as Li Xingchui was wagging his tail confidently, Leonardo leaned down unexpectedly and nearly stopped when Zhong Wan was only a punch away.Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and Li Xingchui couldn't tell how long it had been. In short, when he relaxed, Leonardo was smiling and pulling away from the distance, looking at Zhong Wan who had just woken up with hazy eyes.
"Ah, Da Vinci!" Zhong Wan spoke Chinese in surprise, from which Leonardo heard the pronunciation of his surname and greeted him.Zhong Wan hurriedly sat up and straightened her clothes, her eyes caught off guard and met a pair of straight long legs.The visual impact made him stunned on the spot, and his Adam's apple rolled unnaturally.
Li Xingchui was about to crush the petals on the ground, he couldn't bear it anymore, he rushed out with a meow and threw himself on Zhong Wan's lap, grinning provocatively at Leonardo.
"Hey, I didn't see the kitten next to you yesterday." The young painter from Florence has never seen the transformation of a nine-tailed cat demon. When he saw Yuxue's cute cat, he naturally liked it and wanted to touch it. .
Zhong Wan hurriedly stopped Li Xingchui before he got up and arrested him. The way he did it was to grab the hand that painted "Mona Lisa's Smile", jumped off the soft bed, and picked up the back of Li Xingchui's neck. Question: "Did Leonardo come to see me for business?"
The other party nodded slightly, "The teacher is painting a portrait of Princess Sophia, so I don't want to disturb you. This is the first time I've seen an oriental person. I wonder if Mr. Zhong would like me to paint a portrait for you?"
"Huh!!" Zhong Wan took three steps back in fright, pointing at his own face, "You mean, you, take a portrait of me?"
Leonardo showed some confusion on his face, and he asked tentatively: "In the East, is it impolite to ask for a portrait of someone else?"
Zhong Wan quickly shook his head, "No, no, not at all. I mean, I'm very honored!"
Li Xingchui's movements were half a beat slower than Leonardo who happily proposed to go back to get his painting tools. Before the young painter left, he angrily took human form and announced, "I don't accept Yifudorf!"
Uh... what is this guy talking about?
The sight of the cat turning into a living person changed Leonardo's face, but he quickly regained his composure and said with a smile that he had already guessed that they were not ordinary people.
"It's strange to say that every time I come into contact with people in the sect, I feel an unusual aura. I guess there are always some people in this world who have special abilities, which is interesting. This time I came to the Principality of Moscow, and I also want to see this What is the difference between the missions here and the missions in Florence and Rome, it is a surprise to meet you."
Li Xingchui didn't like his amiable appearance, so he snorted coldly, took Zhong Wan's hand, and said, "Don't ask him to paint you. When I return to Dachen territory, I will ask the most famous painter to paint your portrait." ,Okay?"
"No, how can we let go of such a good opportunity!" Zhong Wan shook off Li Xingchui's hand and refused without thinking, but he soon realized something was wrong, and cast an apologetic look at Leonardo, Pulling Li Xingchui's wrist aside, "Sanhuang, didn't you ask me where I came from earlier? Let me tell you, I did come here many years later than here, and there may be some historical deviations. However, this man, Leonardo, will become the most famous painter in the world in the future, no matter how the times change, he will be extremely powerful in the hearts of generations!"
"Tell me, can I miss this opportunity for a portrait..." Zhong Wan finally acted coquettishly towards Li Xingchui, seeing that his cat owner still had an expression of "I'm very upset", and went on again. Relating to the messy "one husband and wife" he said earlier, Zhong Wan said again: "Don't think about it, I don't agree with Princess Sofia and their view of marriage... Uh forget it, you don't understand either What is the concept of marriage? In short, Sanhuang, no matter how long I live, I will only have you and a cat, okay?"
Li Xing said this to Yan Dayue, he squeezed Zhong Wan's hand awkwardly, and finally nodded in agreement. Anyway, that guy is an ordinary person, so he can't spend enough time with Zhong Wan.
Leonardo sat in front of the drawing board and pondered for a moment, then said, "How about Mr. Li turning into a cat and lying on Mr. Zhong's lap, the artistic conception of the picture will be more beautiful."
Of course, the cat owner came up honestly, and I am afraid that no one is more skilled in posing that lazy knee-sleeping style.
The sun was just right, and the young painter who outlined the people in front of him stroke by stroke never thought that he would become a rare talent passed down through the ages.After being invited to participate in Sophia's wedding, Zhong Wan and Li Xingchui, who went to Milan with Leonardo, did not expect that they would see this painting again after a long, long time.
In the spacious museum, the tour guide introduced to the onlookers with a beautiful voice: "This painting found in a private vault in Italy a year ago has been definitely identified as the authentic work of Leonardo da Vinci, and it has been circulated in Da Vinci. In the manuscript that came down, this pair of "Mr. Zhong and His Cat" was mentioned. It is said that it was made by Da Vinci when he went to Moscow with his teacher Verrocchio to paint the portrait of Princess Sophia. This is Da Vinci The only oriental character in the painting, he mentioned Mr. Zhong in the painting several times in different manuscripts in his later years, which shows that the relationship between the two is extraordinary. Let's take a look at the clothing of the character in this painting..."
"What's extraordinary!" Li Xing raised his eyebrows and snorted dissatisfiedly outside the crowd.He was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and he looked so cool that he couldn't be provoked.
Zhong Wan is wearing a T-shirt and jeans, very student-like, looking at himself surrounded by sunflowers in the painting, smiling peacefully and the lazy cat on his lap, his distant memories are gradually awakened, "It was really a long time ago, count it After that, we never walked the road from Moscow to Milan so slowly, nor did we have such a caring and funny traveling companion as Leonardo."
"Clock! Little! Late!"
Zhong Wan rolled his eyes. There are so many people this guy is jealous of. From ancient times to the present, he doesn't know how many people.Some tourists shouted "true image" in surprise, Zhong Wan came back to his senses, and found that the eyes of the entire exhibition room were focused on him.
"Let's go, Sanhuang."
The young man who resembles the protagonist of the famous painting took his partner and disappeared at the end of the museum corridor, while the pair of "Mr. Zhong and His Cat" is still hanging in the center of the exhibition room, waiting for more people to discover it the story behind.
