Riding the wind of rebirth

This person's status in the world of calligraphy and painting later indeed surpassed that of Wen Zhengming, that is, Li Fangying's "Baiyang", Chen Chun and Chen Daofu.

Zhou Zhi immediately moved the mirror to the paintings to look for them. Sure enough, three paintings were stamped with "Chen's Daofu" and "Resurrection Seal", "Bird", "Water" and "Mountain", a total of five seals.

Zhou Zhi's heart felt hot. These three paintings are Chen Chun's landscapes, flowers and birds. What about the other three paintings that can be compared with them?
After moving the mirror over, there are "Zhifu Mountain Man", "Green Snake in the Sleeve", and the most obvious "Xu Family Wen Chang".

Zhou Zhi's heart couldn't help but beat wildly. There were six freehand landscapes, flowers and birds in the album, three of which were by Chen Chun and three of which were by Xu Wei!

Calm your mind and read the other two postscripts.

One article is: Zhishan calligraphy, Baiyang calligraphy, and the flying general in the ink. When it is crazy and angry, it changes vertically and horizontally, making the viewer wonder.Since the victory of the Victory, no one has written about flowers like me in Wujun, and since Wujun was Shen Qinan, no one has written about flowers like Chen Daokue and Lu Shuping.

The inscription is the postscript of Tiantao layman Wang Shizhen in the spring of Wuchen period of the Longqing Dynasty in March.

There are also two small seals "Yuan Yang" and "Tian Tao".

This is also an old acquaintance, the one who writes pornographic books while serving as prime minister, and his pen name is Xiaoxiaosheng.

The remaining article returned to Li Fangying:

The white sun and green vines are as noble as clouds and mud, and the bones and winds are singing. Are they not looking outside the body, but seeking the inner light?Otherwise, this book or painting would not be possible.

His successor, Li Qingjiang, a man from Lu?

Qingjiang is good at plum blossoms, and there is a saying that "it is not surprising even if it encounters no setbacks." People say that he is good at plum blossoms, but Qingjiang just laughs and doesn't answer.

The signature is "Cangshan Jushi", and there are two seals, one is "Jianzhai", and the other is famous, "Suiyuan".

The author of this article is Yuan Mei, a famous scholar in the Qing Dynasty.

The content of the article is Yuan Mei's evaluation of Chen Chun and Xu Wei, saying that the two people's life experiences are as different as clouds, but their creative styles are similar. It may be that the two people do not value external things and pursue inner freedom, so they are similar.Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to write such extraordinary words or draw such elegant paintings.

The only person who can succeed them now is probably Li Fangying, right?

Yuan Mei was a good friend of Li Fangying. He once wrote a poem to praise him: "I love Li Qingjiang, a man from the state of Lu. Although the plum blossoms are stubborn, they bloom in the spring breeze."

It seems that Yuan Mei is the person who collected and framed the album of Baiyang Qingteng's flower, bird, and landscape sketches. As for whether his collection invited his friend Li Fangying to appreciate and ponder it together, and whether it promoted Li Fangying's painting skills, it is natural.

But in any case, these six album pages were finally hidden under Li Fangying's works by collectors. It must be said that this is both the fate of inheritance and a magical coincidence.

"Oops!" When Zhou Zhi came back to his senses from these studies, he realized that his fourth cousin and aunt had been waiting for a long time.

They were experts there and knew that Zhou Zhi couldn't disturb Zhou Zhi unless he called them, so they kept putting up with it.

He hurriedly dialed the phone, and when the call was connected, he immediately asked eagerly: "Elbow, did you find anything? Why did it take so long?"

"You can almost see clearly. There are six large albums of ink, landscape, flowers and birds on the back. Three are by Chen Baiyang, three are by Xu Qingteng, and there are also postscripts by Wen Zhengming, Wang Shizhen, and Yuan Mei." A gasp came from the receiver. Voice: "Xu Qingteng, Chen Baiyang?!"

Anyone who is slightly proficient in Chinese calligraphy and painting understands the importance of these two people. Now all Xu Wei's works are in museums, and the only handed down private collection seems to be an album of twelve flowers and birds.

Especially Chen Chun's. There are Chen Chun's paintings in the hands of private collectors. Anyway, I have never heard of them until now.

The postscripts written by Wen Zhengming, Wang Shizhen, and Yuan Mei in Zhou Zhi's hands are strong evidence of authenticity. Zhou Zhi himself is a master of cutting off Wen Zhengming's works, and he can almost fake the "Thousand-Character Classic" written by Wen Zhengming in his middle age. Therefore, when the fourth cousin heard that Wen Zhengming's postscript existed, he no longer doubted the authenticity of the scroll.

"Don't worry too much about your elbow. With your repair skills, the problem is not big." The fourth aunt said calmly: "There are two ways now. One is to continue working and dismantle the two works by hand. We estimate that there will be two batches. The age of the work is different, so it should be relatively easy to uncover the heart of the painting. At most, it is a bit severely chipped, so it will take time and effort to polish it off."

"This time is different from the past. The life paper is more precious than the heart of the painting, so we suggest doing the opposite, picking out the heart of the painting and leaving the life paper." The fourth cousin said: "After all, Li Fangying's paintings are more recent. The situation should be better, and it should be easier to lift it than to reveal the death paper."

"But this needs to be done in one go. If you do it alone, it will take a long time. You have to be confident before you can do this."

"If you are not sure, use the second option." Fourth Aunt said: "Clamp the two paintings in supporting paper and hang them on the wall. After they are dry, roll them up and bring them back. The three of us will complete the work together in Jiachuan. "

"The heart of the painting is exposed and injured every time. Our tendency is that if you feel confident, it is better to start working now, so as not to bring back new wounds caused by secondary humidification in a short period of time." The fourth uncle said: "Of course, if you are not sure, it is better to start working now." , then there is nothing we can do about bringing it back.”

"Don't be too panicked," said the fourth aunt, "Now you regard the life paper as the heart of the painting, and the heart of the painting as the life paper. You are already experienced in uncovering the life paper framed in the Qing Dynasty."

"Fourth Aunt, you don't need to comfort me," Zhou Zhi said, somewhat dumbfounded: "In the past, there was no need to keep the life-paper to reveal one's fate, but now I can't bear to destroy this painting by Li Fangying. Yuan Mei also mentioned him in his postscript. It’s over.”

"Who told you to act in a hurry?" Fourth Aunt said angrily, "It's hard to ride a tiger now."

"Then I'd better try it myself first." Zhou Zhi thought for a moment: "I'll just follow the first plan you mentioned."

"You have to think about it carefully." The fourth cousin said: "Once you start the second plan, it will be gone. You can only complete it in one go."

"Think about it." Zhou Zhi took a deep breath: "Isn't it just about enduring? This is what we college students are good at."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhi unplugged the phone line, set the pager to vibrate, opened the refrigerator, took out three eggs and noodles, and made himself a bowl of omelette noodles for his boss.

He also painted a piece of support paper on his vest, turned the painting over, then untied the support paper on "Mo Mei Tu" and laid it aside. While eating the noodles, he thought about the starting sequence for a while.

What we have to do now is very simple, which is to take down the "Mo Mei Tu" and transfer it to another life sheet.

The steps are to transfer the large, whole, main parts first, and then transfer the small, fine, secondary parts.

During the process of uncovering, you need to be careful to separate it from the album pages below, and do not take them with you.

After a rough estimate, the entire painting was probably broken into dozens of pieces, and the flower, bird, and landscape album underneath was broken into hundreds of small pieces.

The top is easy to handle, but the bottom is something that must not be tampered with. (End of chapter)
