My Lustful Aunt | Chapter 916 Preparing the Four Treasures of the Study (Fourth Update)

Ye Fan suddenly smiled and said, "The story depicted in this painting is from a painting examination held by Emperor Huizong of Song in Bianjing (present-day Kaifeng, Henan Province) during the reign of Emperor Huizong."

The female guest in the hidden room was stunned for a moment. She really hadn't expected that this guy who called himself Fan Ye could actually answer the question, and answer it perfectly, as if he knew the question beforehand and looked it up online.

However, the female guest quickly recovered and said with a smile, "You're very good. You passed this time. So, what is the title of this painting?" Ye Fan

answered without hesitation, "The horse's hooves are fragrant with flowers on its return journey!"

Actually, Ye Fan had racked his brains to remember it. The old man liked this painting very much, saying that it had a great artistic conception. The title of the painting examination that was held was "The horse's hooves are fragrant with flowers on its return journey." Many painters didn't know how to start. Some painted a majestic horse, and some painted many flowers and plants, but none of them matched the artistic conception of this poem.

Later, a painter painted this picture: a traveler sits on horseback, followed by several butterflies reluctant to leave. With just a few strokes, he captured the essence of the scene, and thus he passed the imperial examination.

The female guest was genuinely surprised this time. She couldn't sit still any longer and stepped out from behind the curtain, blinking her big eyes at Ye Fan, as if suspecting him of cheating.

Seeing her like that, Ye Fan found it somewhat amusing. Thinking about it, he realized that his attire didn't exactly suggest someone of great learning.

"Brother, impressive! I didn't expect you to be so cultured. I, Brother Ma, am truly impressed!" Ma Xiaobei had somehow appeared beside Ye Fan, patting him on the back with an embarrassed smile.

Envy? Jealousy? Hatred? Ye Fan didn't bother with him. However, when he turned his head, he was almost startled. Unbeknownst to him, he was now surrounded by a large group of male friends, all casting admiring glances at him.

More precisely, they were all casting long, intense stares at the female guest behind Ye Fan. Those eyes, sharp and predatory, even made Ye Fan uneasy.

The female guest, however, seemed oblivious to the predatory gazes around her, her starry eyes fixed on Ye Fan, as if hoping to glean some clue from him.

Ye Fan coughed lightly. "Now for the third question, shall we?"

The female guest withdrew her scrutinizing gaze, slightly disappointed. She hadn't been able to find anything of value in Fan Ye. Had Fan Ye truly answered based on his own abilities?

"The third question is, please identify the authenticity of this painting and explain your reasoning."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, the crowd erupted, especially Ma Xiaobei, who practically pounded his chest in frustration, vehemently protesting for Ye Fan, "Damn it! How could this painting be that scholar's genuine work? It's from the Song Dynasty, Emperor Huizong's era! If it were real, it would be worth a fortune by now, how could it be displayed here for a charity sale?"

Ma Xiaobei was telling the truth; everyone knew it was a fake. But knowing that was one thing, explaining why it was a fake truly tested one's painting skills.

Even world-class masters of painting today can't always distinguish a fake with 100% accuracy. The fact that this female guest had said such a thing meant the painting was extremely close to the original.

Trying to determine authenticity based on paper age and wear was virtually impossible; without precise instruments, how could the human eye possibly do that?

Ye Fan cursed inwardly, "Who came up with these questions? Isn't this blatantly designed to ensure the attendees never see the female guest's true face? The more they can't see, the more they want to buy paintings and participate, making the questions even harder, leading to even more purchases…

This is probably Chairman Mo's doing! He's such a cunning old fox!"
The female guest didn't care about any of this. She had taken time out of her busy schedule to attend this charity sale because she was passionate about public welfare, and because Chairman Mo had assured her that no one could possibly pass his carefully prepared three tests. No one would try to take advantage of her.

That's why she agreed to appear. And indeed, it was true. Few could even answer one of her questions, let alone the second or third.

Seeing Ye Fan's expression, she became even more smug.

Ye Fan, however, was furious. "You're so sure I can't answer? I'll make you regret it later!"

Ye Fan said, "Of course it's a fake. The reason is simple: I could paint anything, even a mediocre one!"

His words were met with a chorus of skepticism; no one believed this boastful man.

Suddenly, Ma Xiaobei grabbed Ye Fan's arm and whispered urgently, "Brother, stop pretending! Even your brother Ma can't answer it, so you have no hope. Let's go, it won't be so embarrassing for you!" Ma Xiaobei had already

seen people taking off their shoes; if Ye Fan didn't leave, he could already foresee his fate.

Ye Fan was amused and annoyed by Ma Xiaobei's words. This Ma Xiaobei seemed to have a very high opinion of himself; just because he couldn't answer, did he mean others couldn't?

The female guest was also stunned by Ye Fan's words, looking at him in surprise and saying, "Mr. Fan, you're not joking, are you?"

Ye Fan said speechlessly, "Do I look like I'm joking?" He then shook off Ma Xiaobei.

Ma Xiaobei gave Ye Fan a thumbs-up and sincerely said, "You're awesome!" Then he turned his back, rolled up his sleeves, and glared fiercely at the restless young men, looking like he'd fight anyone who dared to throw a shoe at him. For a moment, he actually managed to intimidate the uneasy ones.

"What's going on?" Suddenly, a deep and powerful voice came, and then an elderly man in his sixties stepped forward, pushing through the crowd.

Mo Zihan was also here... Ye Fan hadn't expected to catch the attention of this old man Mo; it was truly an honor...

The female guest, seeing that it was the association's president, briefly explained the situation to him. Old man Mo listened carefully, and when he looked at Ye Fan, a glint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Prepare the writing implements!" Old man Mo shouted to someone behind him.

The person nodded and hurriedly left.
