Phyllis showed a playful smile on her face and asked deliberately: "Danica, do you think this painting is praising or sarcasm?" In fact, although the meaning of this painting is obscure, it is not completely invisible. The content in the painting satirizes the so-called peaceful times, which are actually built on the corpse.

But I don’t know if Danica really didn’t see it or she deliberately confronted Phyllis. She said affirmatively: “Of course it’s a compliment. Look at the apples in the painting are really the same, as if they just picked them from the tree.”

Well, Phyllis has nothing to say to Danica: "Then should we buy this one?" In addition to exhibitions, this kind of art exhibition also has the function of selling paintings. If someone likes it, you can contact the staff to order it and take it away after the exhibition is over.

Danica thought for a while and said, "Let's take a look again, maybe there's something better."

Phyllis smiled and said, "What does it mean to have better ones? You don't have money. If you encounter a better one, you can buy it!"

Even though that's the case, since Danica had no intention of buying this painting, Phyllis did not insist anymore.

The two continued to look at the paintings, and in a corner on the second floor, Danica saw a very special painting.

"You probably don't like this, right?" Phyllis leaned over and said, "It doesn't look like it at all."

The name of this painting is "Wilderness", which is different from the realistic paintings I saw before. This painting uses large and small color blocks to paint the impression of the wilderness.

"But the emotion expressed in this painting is very strong." Danica thought for a while and said.

Phyllis looked carefully and said, "That's true, but I've never seen this painting before. Is it a new appearance in Twin Cities?"

Danica didn't know anything about it, she looked at Luna.

Luna introduced: "This style of painting appeared in the southern coastal areas more than a hundred years ago, and recently appeared in Twin Cities. Because the style is very special, it has not been widely accepted."

"That's it." Phyllis said with a smile, "Danica, it seems that there are still many people who think the same as you. A painting must be like the first thing to do."

Danica said without comment: "I think this painting is good and can be bought, what do you think?"

"If you want to buy it, buy it, but..." Philis frowned slightly and said, "Don't you think the emotions expressed in this painting are too dark?" Philis wanted to improve the cold atmosphere of the palace at the beginning, but wouldn't it look even more gloomy if he hung this painting on it?

"That's it..." Danica said.

Phyllis gestured and said, "Look, the tone of this painting is dark first, black and gray are used in large quantities, and it seems to have a little red, which makes it even more bloody. The wasteland in this painting seems to have just experienced a large-scale war, and you can vaguely see the ground full of corpses. Look here, is it very similar to blood flowing? The blood can flow like this, and I don't know how many people died in this battle? Or how many people were slaughtered."

The last sentence of Philis said to Danica. The warlords in the central region and the city lords of the city state looked cruel and fierce, but in fact they could not compare with those powerful forces at the mainland level. Just like the gangsters on the street fighting fiercely, it is very fierce, but the real big boss only needs to say a word to make countless people suffer. Philis, Tyran, Lucia, and Elizabeth, with the support of these people, Danica's Gemini King

The country can already be regarded as a powerful force at the continental level. Those warlords had no way to fight the expansion of the Gemini Kingdom. Most of the battles experienced during the expansion were Catherine arranged for cavalry to charge, and then the opponent's formation collapsed directly, and then the defeated soldiers were chased. The cavalry was quite efficient in this regard. After the war, they could often see corpses everywhere, blood flowing into a river, and when they stepped on it, they were soft and soaked in the land.

Phyllis looked at the paintings hanging on the wall and said meaningfully: "There are quite a lot of anti-war-themed paintings in this exhibition!"

Danica was silent and said nothing.

Phyllis looked at Danica and said, "I thought the expansion of the Gemini Kingdom would make the residents of this city excited, but it did not." A kingdom with a rising national strength should be very excited during the expansion of the country because they will enjoy the rich war dividends. But in the Gemini Kingdom, things seem to have become a little different. So many paintings of anti-war subjects are exhibited here in such a grand manner, and it is currently exhibited in the largest art exhibition in the Twin Cities. Soldiers on the front line fought on the battlefield, but the citizens in the rear were fighting against the war, which was too bad for morale.

Phyllis looked at Luna and asked, "What's going on?" This exhibition was sponsored by the Aishi Chamber of Commerce, and these exhibits were selected by the people of the Aishi Chamber of Commerce. Why did so many anti-war subjects choose the paintings of so many anti-war subjects?

Under Phyllis' questioning, Luna looked panicked for the first time today. She lowered her head and didn't know how to answer.

Phyllis waited for a while, but did not wait for the answer she wanted, so she said, "Okay, although you are from the Aixue Chamber of Commerce, you mainly live in the palace, so it is normal to not know it, but Aixue should be clear, right? It's almost the Chinese New Year, and Aixue is going to come back. After coming back, I asked her to come to me. I want to ask, what does her Aixue Chamber of Commerce mean? The expansion of the Gemini Kingdom is a policy formulated by Danica and me. Is she dissatisfied with it?"

Luna was scared and sweated. Phyllis's meaning was already very obvious, and she almost said the word "rebellion". If this matter is so scheming, a group of relevant persons in charge of Aixue Chamber of Commerce will die, and Aixue herself will have to lose a layer of skin.

Leaving the fear of Luna trembling in fear, Phyllis said with some angriness: "Danica, your control over art is too loose."

Danica said with a wry smile: "I thought this was not a big deal, so I didn't care."

Phyllis said: "But in fact, this is a big deal, and it is a big deal. The control of public opinion is something that every person in power must take seriously. You are too naive and careless in this regard." Phyllis shook his head and continued: "Of course, we don't have to confine thoughts too much like the Holy See of Light. We have to take care of everything. Painting is also religious subjects, which is too boring. They can paint these paintings whenever they want, and we can ignore them, but it is too impolite to show them, especially in such an important exhibition."

Danica thought for a while and said, "You are right, I need to pay attention." She turned around and said, "Tell Ai Xue about this and let her think about how to explain it to us and the subsequent solutions."

Next, Danica and Philis continued to look at the paintings in the gallery, but it was obvious that Danica was no longer as careless as before. She began to look at each painting seriously, talking to Philis about the quality of the painting and the thoughts to be expressed behind it.

After Phyllis' reminder, Danica discovered that there were quite a lot of anti-war and caricature paintings here, such as a small painting on the third floor, which depicts the corpse of a little girl, and a few crows pecked at her. The picture is quite impactful. The background of this painting is a city that has just experienced the war, with corpses everywhere and crows flying all over the sky.

In the Gemini Kingdom, crows have a very clear special reference, which refers to the Guards who are used to wearing black military uniforms. The scene in the painting should be the Guards' cruel suppression of the newly occupied land.

The color comparison, composition and content of this painting have a powerful and stunning power, but it is not true. Emily's Guards are indeed responsible for maintaining order in the occupied areas, but they suppress the warlords who are unwilling to fail and their loyal followers. There may be accidental injuries, but ordinary civilians are not their target. Besides, for the central region where wars are constantly incessant, civilians do not have any sense of loyalty - a city sometimes needs to be changed several times a year

Who should I be loyal to? If you change a master to the land you live in, the civilians are already very experienced: don’t go out if you have nothing to do, prepare your property and food. Every time the city changes hands, the new occupier will plunder it hard, in order to make this war "profitable". When the occupying army kicks in, the best choice for those unarmed civilians is to cooperate and take the initiative to hand over. If you don’t hand over, you may die. Even if you hand over, you may die.

The change of city owners this time is very special. At least the new occupiers do not seem to have any intention of plundering them. Many citizens who are ready to hide in the house for several days were waiting, but found that it was a false alarm.

This painting made Danica a little unhappy. She was already maintaining military discipline as much as possible and using sufficient logistics supplies to prevent the army from looting on the spot. But those guys were still smearing the soldiers of the Gemini Kingdom. It was really...

"I'm a little tired, let's go back." Danica said coldly. She was really not in the mood to continue watching.

Although they have not bought one so far, seeing that Danica is in a bad mood, Phyllis obediently said: "Okay, then go back first. When we have time, we will come out and choose a few paintings."

Seeing that the owner and Miss Yuelan were going back, Luna went out first and arranged the carriage. After she came back, Danica asked directly: "When will Ai Xue come back?"

Luna was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted and said, "Miss Aishi will be back in two days." Obviously, Her Majesty the Queen had already guessed that she had taken time to arrange for someone to pass the news when she went out. Her Majesty Danica and Philes were both dissatisfied with the exhibition report. After receiving the news, Aishi had to let go of anything and rush back to the Twin Cities as soon as possible.

Danica nodded and said, "Let Emily come back too."

...

Two days later, Ai Xue rode a horse and rushed back to Twin Cities. She first returned to her residence, called a few relevant persons in charge, asked in detail what was going on, then washed up briefly, changed her clothes and planned to go to the palace.

As a result, as soon as Ai Xue left the house, she saw Luna getting out of a carriage at the door of the manor.

When he walked to Ai Xue, Luna said, "Miss Ai Xue, the master has given him the order, you can rest for a day and go to the palace tomorrow morning."

"Ah? Oh, okay." Ai Xue thought about it before she realized that the master should have asked herself to prepare for what to say. This time she hurriedly called herself back. She was definitely not trying to hear her apologize, but had a plan to follow up on this matter.

Although Ai Xue had already thought about what to say when she was on the road, it was always good to have more day, but there was another important question... Ai Xue asked carefully: "Miss Yue Lan is also very dissatisfied?" Compared to Danica, Philis' style of dealing with things still seems much gentler. If Philis is dissatisfied this time, things may be in trouble.

Luna nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Yuelan took the initiative to ask about the matter this time."

"Oh, okay... OK..." Ai Xue said in a daze. She was struggling for two consecutive days, and the complicated situation made her look a little dizzy.

"You'd better take a break first." Luna said with some concern, "You're in a bad state now."

Ai Xue smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, it's rare that you will still care about me."

Luna smiled sweetly and said, "What are you saying? I was promoted by you."

Ai Xue waved her hand and said, "It would be great if you can still remember this." Seeing Luna was about to say something, Ai Xue said directly: "Okay, you go back first."

Luna looked at Ai Xue in confusion and replied, "Yes, then I'll go back first."

After Luna turned her head, the doubt on her face disappeared instantly, turning into gloom and ruthlessness. Could it be that Ai Xue has already noticed her identity?

After Luna turned around, the confusion on Ai Xue's face disappeared. She sneered and turned back. This girl really thought she was hiding well. It was ridiculous. Such a arrogant person didn't know how long he could live with his master.

Forget it, no matter how much she is, let's think about yourself more.

ps: Let me explain here that the plot of the paintings written in the exhibition: First, because the expansion of the Gemini Kingdom was not led by Danica himself. This matter was actually done by Catherine, Aishi and Emily. Danica only formulated this strategy, but the expansion process is very important, so by looking at the paintings and by describing these paintings, it can be considered an explanation; there is another point that the results of this book are already miserable enough, only 28 are ordered, and one has been dropped recently, and it has become twenty-seven. I need to wait a few days to accept this fact, so the plot of the expansion of the Gemini Kingdom is briefly described by looking at the paintings.
