Yang Yi originally wasn't paying attention, but as he listened, he couldn't help but turn his head.
He saw shadows moving behind the screen, and two men in silk robes were leaning in close, whispering to each other. Their voices weren't particularly clear, but his long-term vigilance allowed him to hear their conversation distinctly.
Who was the "one above" that liked "osmanthus"? Who was important enough to warrant such a solemn meeting, even requiring a chance to pay respects?
Yang Yi couldn't help but perk up his ears, but saw the two men gathering up two scrolls of paintings, heading to the counter to settle their bill.
Yang Yi gave a look to Chen Song at the door, then continued to look down at the paintings.
Xie Zhang selected two paintings and brought them over: "What do you think of these two? I remember the Empress once commented on a similar piece at a palace banquet, perhaps she would like these grand landscapes."
