Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 9 Composition
Looking at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, Gao Ming tragically discovered that he had become a semi-literate person.

I don't know the Four Books and Five Classics, I can't read classical Chinese without punctuation marks, and I can't even write the most basic brush characters. superior.

For someone like Gao Ming, to say he is semi-literate would be considered polite.

At this time, Gao Ming suddenly had an idea.

"Now that he has become a prince, it doesn't matter whether he is illiterate or not. Just like the boss who runs a company, he doesn't necessarily need to know everything, as long as he knows who knows how."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the desk, and went back to his bedroom with a big smile.

Gao Ming planned to let Su Wan'er write it, but after he went in, he found that Su Wan'er was still covered under the blanket and hadn't come out.

Seeing this scene, he immediately laughed.

"Hey, I said Wan'er, you can't wait until it's dark? If you don't come out again, don't blame your husband for 'right to death'!"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Su Wan'er poked her head out immediately, pouted her mouth and began to act coquettishly.

"Lang Jun... If you continue to play tricks on me, I will ignore you, hum!"

Seeing her coquettish look, Gao Ming laughed again.

"Hahahaha, okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore, you go to the study with me, I need your help with something."

"Yes, sir!" Hearing that Gao Ming asked her to help, Su Wan'er followed him into the study room, looking at the pens, ink, papers and inkstones that had been placed on the table, Su Wan'er blinked curiously.

"Your lord prepared these pens, ink, paper and inkstones, do you want my concubine to help me write something? I'm not very talented, I'm afraid I can't help you with anything!"

Hearing her words, Gao Ming smiled and shook his head.

"Actually, it's not difficult, I think you can write it."

When Su Wan'er heard this, she smiled happily.

"If this is the case, the concubine will be able to help Mr. Lang."

After speaking, she picked up a piece of ink stick and began to grind the ink.

Su Wan'er is a smart woman, so at this time she didn't ask Gao Ming why she didn't write it but asked her to write it. She only knew that if she could help Gao Ming, then Gao Ming would be happy and love her even more.

This is the wisdom of women belonging to this era.

After Su Wan'er was ready, Gao Ming said with a smile: "I am preparing a model essay for Xiang'er this time. The title of the essay is "My Father Emperor". I read a sentence and you write a sentence."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses, nodded and wrote the words "My Royal Father" on the rightmost side of the rice paper.

Su Wan'er's father, Su Quan, was Datang's secretary Cheng, a civil servant from the fifth grade. Su Wan'er was born in such a scholarly family, and her regular script was naturally delicate and beautiful. Gao Ming couldn't help but nodded when he saw it.

"This calligraphy is beautifully written. You really deserve to be a lady!"

After seeing Su Wan'er finished writing, Gao Ming continued to read.

"My royal father's name is Li Shimin, and he is His Majesty the current emperor."

Hearing Gao Ming's plain words, Su Wan'er was stunned for a moment, but she didn't say anything, but quickly wrote down what Gao Ming said with a brush.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming was immediately more satisfied. After thinking about it, he continued to read.

"He has a face with Chinese characters and a pair of protruding ears. His eyebrows are black and straight, his nose is high, and his eyes are small, but they look piercing. It may be because of the frequent exposure to the sun. His face is somewhat Black, like steamed buns that have been wiped with pot ashes..."

When Gao Ming read this, Su Wan'er immediately stopped the pen in her hand, then raised her head and retorted softly.

"Lang Jun, father is actually not that dark..."

Before she finished speaking, Gao Ming glared at her.

"What do you know? This is called exaggerated embellishment, that's all, you can leave it alone, why do I think you write like that!"

"Yes, sir!"

Su Wan'er agreed aggrievedly, then continued to write, while Gao Ming continued to read.

"Since my father came to the throne, he has been busy with government affairs and neglected to exercise, so his body has gradually gained weight. His fat belly looks chubby, as if he is pregnant. If it is said that being with the king is like being with a tiger, then I Your father is now like a pregnant tiger..."

When Gao Ming read this, Su Wan'er suddenly shook her hand, and then burst out laughing with a "puchi".

"Lang Jun, if you say that about father, he will be angry if he knows...hehehehe..."

Hearing her words, Gao Ming shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

"It's okay, I'm just using it as a model essay for Li Xiang tomorrow, I'll burn it when I'm done using it up, there's no way Old Li will know, don't worry."

After finishing speaking, Gao Ming continued to read, and when he estimated that it was almost [-] characters, Gao Ming stopped.

But when he saw the densely packed words on the paper, he frowned again.

"It doesn't work without sentence breaks, it seems that punctuation marks have to be added."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming simply wrote down all the punctuation marks on a piece of paper, and told Su Wan'er how to use these punctuation marks.

After listening to Gao Ming's "theory of punctuation marks", Su Wan'er immediately looked at him with admiration.

"Lang Jun can have such a wonderful idea. I feel that this punctuation mark will be widely spread in the future, and my name will be left in history. I would like to congratulate you in advance!"

After finishing speaking, he got up and gave Gao Mingfu a blessing.

And Gao Ming couldn't help laughing when he saw Su Wan'er bowing to him.

"Hey, Wan'er, if you really want to congratulate me, then finish the dance this afternoon, hey hey hey..."

Seeing Gao Ming's "silver" smile, Su Wan'er's face turned red again...

The next morning, after breakfast, Gao Ming put the punctuated composition in the study, and then took Su Wan'er to visit the Tai Chi Palace. After all, being familiar with the terrain is one of his "compulsory courses" every day.

Not long after Gao Ming took Su Wan'er away from the East Palace, a little girl about ten years old, with a pink and jade-like appearance, ran in, and he yelled as he ran.

"Brother... Where are you, brother?"

Hearing her voice, a court lady in a blue palace gown hurried over and saluted her.

"Reporting to Princess Jinyang, His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess have gone out."

The person who came was Li Mingda, Princess of Jinyang. When she heard the maid said that Gao Ming was not there, she blinked in surprise.

"Brother and sister-in-law have gone out? Then when will they come back?"

The maid shook her head, indicating that she didn't know, and Li Mingda's cute little face immediately wrinkled.

"This is troublesome. It seems that I can only leave him a book."

While talking to herself, she walked into Gao Ming's study room, then picked up the brush on the table and wrote a note.

After finishing writing, she picked up the paperweight on the table and pressed the note. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a rice paper full of words on the table.

"What is this? Could it be a new article by Big Brother?"
