Chuzheng spent a fortune buying a batch of calligraphy and paintings, and word of this quickly made its way to the ears of various people.
The Emperor of Jin couldn't fathom what Chuzheng was up to.
"Where did he get the money?"
"Subordinate... does not know." The general hypothesized, "Perhaps it was brought from Wei Country; when he arrived, he carried quite a few possessions..."
After all, he was the Prince of Wei Country.
Even if Wei Country's Emperor did not hold him in high regard, what about his mother and concubine?
She must have some savings, right?
The Emperor of Jin frowned, "What's he buying calligraphy and paintings for?"
The general shook his head, "I don't know; his purchases were haphazard. He bought everything from famous artists' works to nameless calligraphy and paintings."
"Could Wei Country be using this as a way to send him messages?" the Emperor of Jin pondered.
"..." It was truly hard to say.
"Go and investigate."
"Yes."
