Li Shimin turned around and returned to the low couch, laughing softly: "Let's play music, then dance."
Everyone: "..."
The musicians continued to play music, the dancers continued to twist their waists and swing their sleeves, the river crabs started to rejoice again, and all the noble ladies continued to drink tea, chat and appraise the beauties.
Wei Zheng sat downcast. He didn't know how to describe his mood at this time. He was depressed, confused, and more angry. Even if King Teng had some merits, he could not be tolerated to disrespect His Majesty! This is not over yet!
"Why did Xuancheng confront Prince Teng again?" Yan Liben whispered to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji shook his head, changed the subject and said: "Prince Teng's line drawing method is smooth, orderly, and dense. In a few years, your reputation as the chief painter will probably be lost." out."
The character set up by Wei Xuan was the criticizer. He was born in Prince Yin's Mansion and did not have the talents of Guan Zhong. How could he gain a foothold in the court without becoming a criticizer? Prince Teng pointed his nose at him more than once and scolded him. It could be said that a child speaks without restraint, or that he loves his brother like a father, but... it can also be said that he has a bright eye and a bright heart, and said what His Majesty wanted to say but was inconvenient to say.
His Majesty's character is that of a wise king who accepts advice with an open mind. He used to change his ways whenever people mentioned Yang Emperor's behavior, but after listening to it for so many years, maybe he got tired of hearing it.
Changsun Wuji didn't know that Li Yuanying's behavior would be called a very appropriate word in later generations: "mouth replacement".
"The prince likes to make gifts for Princess Jinyang, and he often uses rulers and drawings." Yan Liben said softly. "The characters in his painting, whether it is His Majesty, King Jin, or Princess Jinyang, are all the closest people, and they are naturally painted with a spiritual resemblance. If he can concentrate on his painting skills, he will become a master within ten years."
But the prince will not just study painting skills. He likes too many things, including sculpture, painting, architecture, safari, singing and dancing beauties... Judging from the current trend, he will become a mixed artist. He is not the kind of miscellaneous scholar who combines Confucianism and Mohism with a thorough understanding of all the schools of thought. Rather, he is a miscellaneous scholar who understands a little bit of everything except learning.
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Will Prince Teng only paint? Not at all! Others are like a white jade with slight flaws, but they don't cover up their flaws. He is so good that he doesn't hide his flaws. Most of the time, he is more like a scoundrel, and he is still a scoundrel who can pull off literary works.
He also didn't know that there was another saying in later generations: The hooligans are not to be feared, only the hooligans are educated.
Little did he know that one of the people Li Yuanying admired was a certain weak leader of the Youth Gang in Shanghai, who was nicknamed Guo Yuesheng. The reason why I admire him is simple. Not only does he have many wives, he is also beautiful. Not only is he beautiful, he is also famous. The most famous one is known as the Winter Emperor.
"Aye, I helped you choose the most beautiful plum blossom!" Princess Jinyang's charming and soft laughter came in before the person arrived.
Li Yuanying, who was following behind to take the flowers, glanced at the plum blossoms in his hand and agreed: "Sizi is right, he is indeed the most handsome!"
Chuntao and Zhang Ananda looked at each other and decided to maintain the same aesthetic values as the prince and princess. This plum blossom was indeed the most beautiful.
Li Shimin caught the little bun Princess Jinyang who ran over and raised his hand to touch his forehead out of habit. It was good, there were no beads of sweat. He smiled softly and said, "My Jinyang Chunxiao family, how fun is a small saw?"
"It's fun. Not only is it fun, it's also a powerful tool for tearing down a family~" Princess Jinyang lay on Li Shimin's shoulder and said in a low voice, "Aye's instructions, Sizi has never forgotten~"
"Hahaha..." Li Shimin hugged Princess Jinyang and laughed heartily, looking like Guanyin's young demeanor, very good.
Li Yuanying silently rolled his eyes. I am magnanimous and will not argue with you, a big-eared thief! Take two steps forward, take out the peonies from the vase on the desk, and put the plum blossoms into the vase. He smiled very sweetly and said, "Brother, please enjoy the flowers."
Li Shimin looked at the plum blossoms in the vase. The beauty of the plum blossoms is that the branches are strong and winding, the flowers are in full buds, and the plum blossoms are the best... The plum blossoms in front of him don't match that one either! When did Sizi's aesthetic become so... unique? There were no twists on the flower branches. There were only a few plum blossoms here and there, but they were still blooming very lacklusterly... There was no change in the expression. He smiled gently and said: "It is indeed very handsome. I should compose a poem to remember this flower!"
Li Yuanying crossed his hands and saluted, and said: "There is a branch of plum blossoms in front of the Baiyu Hall. Today, I can see several flowers blooming. Several doors are closed, how can I get in the spring scenery?"
I knew this poem purely by chance. The boss of the plum blossom tree in the corner once wrote a poem about a plum tree in front of the Baiyu Hall, which blooms for whomever falls. Only the spring wind is the closest, visit us yearly. While flipping through it, I found that the first sentence already existed, and it was from the Tang Dynasty. Now let him use a branch of plum to change it, which can be regarded as Murphy's law of cause and effect.
The last sentence is nonsense. When I chose this plum blossom, I knew that the big-eared thief would most likely seek compensation from someone. If there is a chance that things will go bad, no matter how small the possibility, it will happen.
In short: if nothing goes wrong, something will happen.
The most important point is that this plum blossom is more in line with the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty. It has green branches, short pedicels, small flowers, and a subtle fragrance. It is suitable for quiet places like teahouses and studies.
"I chose you!" Princess Jinyang said proudly, raising her chin slightly.
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then he hugged Princess Jinyang and laughed and said: "Great kindness, my Jinyang family gives me a branch of spring, which should be regarded as the best spring in the world!"
The subsequent development has profoundly confirmed the saying that what is good from above must be followed. With the reputation of the best spring in the world, Green Calyx Plum has become popular in the circles of powerful people, envoys, and wealthy people in the Tang Dynasty at the speed of light... plus Pingkang. The pavilion inside.
Princess Jinyang hugged Li Shimin's neck and laughed so hard that the branches of flowers trembled. Her silver bell-like laughter spread into the plum garden, causing snowflakes to fly and smashing white clouds into pieces...
... Wei Zheng looked at the cherry cake (Biluo) in his hand, twitched the corner of his mouth, and laughed at himself. After being pointed at his nose and scolded by King Teng a few times, the strength of his remonstrances was much less strong. Perhaps it was... ...when it’s time to resign.
Come back, will the fields be full of wild beards?
In the Tang Dynasty, there was no dispute between the sweet party and the salty party. The sweet party only belonged to the aristocratic families, the powerful and the wealthy, because the sweetener at this time was sucrose, which was not as expensive as usual.
Tang Jian rolled his eyes, took the pot from the maid, came to Wei Zheng's side, poured him a cup of tea with his own hands, and asked in a low voice: "Will Prince Teng influence the court situation or interfere in political affairs?"
"No." Wei Zheng was silent for a moment and replied in a low voice. Your Majesty's love for Prince Teng is like an ordinary person's elder brother to his younger brother. He just thinks he is a little naughty and is harmless.
"Then why do you always compete with him?" Tang Jian laughed in anger. Co-author, Wei Xuancheng, you know everything, you just deliberately act like a grown-up... you rely on your elders to show off your elders, and you bully children!
"A dike of a thousand miles was destroyed by an ant nest, so we must take precautions." Wei Zheng said with a solemn expression. If he could have taken a step back, or directly taken a step forward, there would have been no north... It cannot be said, nor can it be imagined.
Tang Jian looked at Wei Zheng's face and shook his head helplessly...
