"The painting is just so-so."
"They're all just trivial skills."
"It probably wouldn't even catch the examiner's eye."
Of course, these words were not what Li Hongcheng truly believed.
He glanced at the prince's painting among the group of examinees.
Without a doubt, it is a force to be reckoned with.
However, although he thought this way, Li Hongcheng couldn't say it out loud.
He's not a fool.
Could it be that the second prince asked him how the crown prince's painting was?
Are they really asking him how his drawing is?
Could it be that the Second Prince would like to hear that the Crown Prince's painting is very good?
of course not.
Therefore, his answer could only be to say the worst.
Sometimes, all I can say is that people really shouldn't think.
Because God really does laugh.
Clearly, Li Chengze had heard Li Hongcheng's evaluation.
There was no joy on Li Hongcheng's face as he had imagined.
Instead, he frowned and the corners of his mouth turned down.
Instead, the grapes in my mouth suddenly didn't smell good anymore.
Su Yu smiled, knowing full well what was going on.
..............
Li Chengze was afraid that the Crown Prince was truly a useless person.
It's so rare to have a hobby like painting.
The result was just so-so.
Wouldn't that be like slapping yourself in the face?
After all, Li Chengze had made that promise to him in a very firm and unequivocal way back then.
The Crown Prince is a talented and capable person.
However, this is how Lee Hong-sung commented.
That would be completely contrary to his expectations and the boast he made.
However, Li Chengze's guess was actually correct.
The crown prince is indeed highly talented.
Li Hongcheng was just talking nonsense.
But you can't really blame Lee Hong-sung for this.
After all, the news of Li Chengze's withdrawal from the political struggle had not yet reached the Prince Jing's heir.
Li Hongcheng certainly still considered the Crown Prince as an enemy.
Why would someone speak well of the enemy in front of their own boss?
Su Yu shook her head, smiled slightly, and ignored the two of them.
Continue observing the situation in the examination room.
As the painting progressed, the other candidates around them seemed to gradually notice something amiss.
After all, he was someone who was well-versed in the art of painting.
These students naturally knew what kind of genius they were facing.
The examiner couldn't help but stand beside the crown prince and watch quietly.
Students frequently cast admiring glances at him.
But he quickly withdrew his thoughts, afraid of disturbing his focus and inspiration.
The crown prince, however, seemed oblivious, still immersed in his own creative world.
The paintbrush in his hand never stopped until the last stroke was made.
A masterpiece has already been presented to everyone.
The painting possesses both the grandeur and magnificence of a royal family.
It also retains a lively artistic and aesthetic appeal.
Among all the paintings in the examination room, it stood out and far surpassed others.
Everyone couldn't help but marvel at the Crown Prince's outstanding talent and amazing gifts.
The second prince then suddenly realized what was happening.
He glanced at Li Hongcheng, who was nervously lowering his head and chuckling, and understood.
What he just said was complete nonsense.
However, Li Chengze was actually happy.
It seems the Crown Prince has truly remarkable talent; he has the potential to become an inner court disciple.
If the crown prince truly possesses extraordinary talent in painting...
The happiest person was, of course, Su Yu.
Su Yu took a sip of tea, and then naturally launched an assessment of the Crown Prince.
Name: Li Chengqian
Age: Eight years old
[Identity: Crown Prince]
Martial Arts Realm: None
[Painting Evaluation: Second Grade, Excellent (from lowest to highest: First Grade, Capable; Second Grade, Excellent; Third Grade, Divine; Fourth Grade, Unrestrained)]
[Skill: None]
[Equipment: None]
[Talent Area: Painting]
[Talent Level: Painting - Incredible (Low, Medium, High, Incredible)]
[Description: Kind and gentle by nature, fond of painting, and talented.]
Su Yu smiled and said, "Very good, indeed a genius painter."
Although he is only at the second rank of Wonderful, he is still young.
Li Chengze stepped forward, patted the Crown Prince on the shoulder, and smiled frankly.
"Chengqian, not bad, a genius painter."
The crown prince nodded, smiling gently.
"Thank you for the compliment, Second Brother."
These words actually sound quite normal.
However, the tone and expression of their voices differed.
It didn't seem like he was faking it, but rather that it came from genuine appreciation and joy.
Li Hongcheng was somewhat stunned.
When did these two brothers become so close?
No, no, it must be an act.
Well, the Crown Prince is always good at putting on an act, and the Second Prince is no less so.
I can't be fooled by their act of brotherhood.

Su Yu was unaware of what Prince Jing's heir, Li Hongcheng, was thinking.
But judging from the expression on his face, it wasn't hard to guess.
If it weren't for Li Chengze telling him in the Hanguang Hall that day that he wanted to become his disciple.
If it weren't for the fact that both Li Chengqian and his brother are now at the academy...
It seems that it really is just as Li Hongcheng imagined.
After all, the Li family's genes weren't good to begin with.
That old man is inhuman, he's putting so much pressure on his two sons.
That's exactly what would have turned them into the two crazy people they became later.
It's like the crown prince, judging from the system's detection.
She is a kind and gentle person by nature.
His only hobby is painting.
Unfortunately, his parents were inhumane, and the prince lived a very repressed and cautious life.
They gradually become like Emperor Qing.
Li Chengqian and Li Chengze were both quite ruthless.
Anyway, they know it's their father who's driving them crazy.
Since things are going badly anyway, might as well go all out and go crazy.
