Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 260 Control the lower body

Li Zhi looked at the memorial "Please Dismiss Xiazhou Governor" in his hand and recognized it at a glance as Chen Qingsi's handwriting.

The calligraphers of this era were led by Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan, followed by Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi...

Most people learn from them when practicing calligraphy. They copy their calligraphy handwriting and get a taste of it. People with mediocre talents are always imitators. People with certain attainments in calligraphy will develop their own experiences and experiences through continuous practice, thus forming the form of calligraphy. own style.

Of course, this is not because the calligraphy of the two kings is inferior to Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan, but because the authentic calligraphy of Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi is not easily available. On the contrary, Ouyang Xun and Yu Shinan were contemporaries, and their copybooks are the most widely circulated and easiest to obtain. , the student is naturally far better than the two kings.

Of the memorials Li Zhi received every day, fifty-six out of ten were in the style of European and Yu style, and one or two were in the form of two kings. The rest were learned from other calligraphy masters, or simply ignored the unformed calligraphy styles, such as Chen Qingsi This is the case with calligraphy.

This book makes sense. Chen Qingsi was born in a poor family and could hardly afford pens, ink, paper and inkstones, let alone copybooks from famous calligraphers.

But what is surprising is that Chen Qingsi's handwriting is very regular and not beautiful. An expert can tell at a glance that his calligraphy skills are not deep and his writing power is insufficient.

But the strange thing is that his handwriting has a certain charm. If you look closely, except for his lack of skill, there is no fault in it. Instead, it feels like a brand of its own.

At first, Li Zhi thought he was in love with Wujiwu. Because he admired Chen Qingsi, he also had a certain fondness for his decent calligraphy.

It wasn't until I talked about this with Xu Jingzong and Ouyang Tong that I discovered that Xu Jingzong and Ouyang Tong also felt the same way.

Ouyang Tong even said: "It's a pity that Mr. Chen was born in a poor family. If he could learn calligraphy from an early age, he would probably be as successful as my father."

Ouyang Tong's father was Ouyang Xun, one of the Four Great Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty and the unrivaled master of calligraphy in this era.

Ouyang Tong was also very accomplished in calligraphy, and father and son were collectively known as "Big and Little Ouyang".

Ouyang Tong's words are very weighty.

In fact, they are praising Chen Qingsi. Calligraphy has a development process. Since the birth of the brush, it has been passed down from generation to generation and improved from generation to generation until it is completed. Not to mention the best, but it is also the best choice for development and progress.

Chen Qingsi's calligraphy did not imitate any ancients, but as a descendant, he was born with the cultural heritage of his ancestors and sages.

Font fonts are developed by integrating the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought.

Li Zhi was also deeply impressed by Chen Qingsi's calligraphy.

"If he doesn't take advantage of the slack time to build Sanshoujiang City, how can he take care of Xiazhou's affairs?"

Li Zhi actually doesn't like Chen Qingsi's style of doing things.

Li Zhi focuses on efficiency and results.

After receiving the order, Chen Qingsi started construction immediately, completed the task in three to five months, and returned to Beijing to resume his duties in one go.

This is real work.

However, Chen Qingsi had to consider the local people's autumn harvest and spring plowing, so he built Sanshoujiang City in batches, delaying the construction until the next summer.

In Li Zhi's opinion, it was too much of a delay.

However, Chen Qingsi managed things too beautifully, taking into account spring plowing and autumn harvest, and minimizing the impact on the people.

The ministers and civil and military officials in the temple all praised this.

Therefore, even if he was unhappy, Li Zhi had no reason to accuse and could not say anything.

Of course, Li Zhi would not blame him. As a pragmatic emperor, the value created by Chen Qingsi and his shortcomings are not worth mentioning at all.

Looking at the situation described in Chen Qingsi's memorial, a trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Zhi was not a benevolent emperor who cared about the people. He did not care about the plight of the local people in the memorial, but the way the seven surnames powerful people occupied the land touched his objection.

With the growth of population and the stabilization of the domestic situation, a large number of nobles and wealthy businessmen have been created, and signs of land annexation have emerged. The behavior of the seven-surname wealthy family undoubtedly heralded some kind of crisis from another aspect.

The behavior of the seven surnamed wealthy families is undoubtedly digging up the roots of the Tang Dynasty. If all the gentry in the world are like this, how can it be tolerated?

"Kill him, kill him well!"

Li Zhi applauded the case and saw Chen Qingsi asking the court to send someone to investigate the details.

He thought about it and wrote down his own red letter: No investigation required, dismissal from office and exile, and choose someone else to take up the post.

Li Zhi has always trusted Chen Qingsi's character. Even he who had a good temper went on a killing spree, which shows that all the evidence is irrefutable. If this is the case, why waste manpower to investigate?

……

Chen Qingsi opened her eyes and stretched greatly. After dancing with the little beauty for most of the night last night, she felt a little sore in her back.

Is your physical strength declining?

Impossible?

It didn't take long for him to fight against his lovely wife and concubine and kill everyone, right?

It must be an illusion.

Although Chen Qingsi didn't believe it, he still couldn't help but go out to practice swordsmanship and ran away.

In the past, I only practiced for half an hour in the morning, but now I accidentally did it for an hour and a half.

The light of the sword flashes, and the tiger and the tiger generate wind.

Cheng Boxian rubbed his waist and walked out of the room. Seeing Chen Qingsi in the courtyard acting like a master, he quickly put his hands down from his waist and said, "Good morning, sir!"

Chen Qingsi's eyes fell on Cheng Boxian's waist and said, "It's early for you too!"

Cheng Boxian's face turned red and he quickly changed the subject and said, "Sir, your sword skills are very good. Please teach me...hand-to-hand combat is a student's shortcoming."

Chen Qingsi shook his head and said, "It's useless for you to learn my sword skills."

It's not that he's stingy, it's true.

At the beginning, Qiu Huike said he would create a set of sword techniques suitable for him, because at his level, his understanding of martial arts has already reached the realm of transformation, and he can understand the subtleties and become extremely proficient.

Everyone has different strengths, different speeds, and even different lengths of hands and feet.

The same moves will have different effects when used by different people.

Therefore, Qiu Hu Ke said that the sword technique he created was in line with his own characteristics, but it may not be practical if others learn it.

The sword skills taught to Chen Qingsi were created by Qiu Huike based on his extraordinary martial arts experience and Chen Qingsi's strength, speed, explosive power and even the length of his hands and feet.

Cheng Boxian's strength was superior to him, but his speed and agility were far inferior, so he was not suitable for learning.

"That's it!" After hearing the explanation, Cheng Boxian looked enlightened and encouraged: "Sir is so powerful, why don't you go into battle to kill the enemy? If Li Weigong is like that, he can become a general or a prime minister..."

Following Chen Qingsi this time, I tasted the benefits and wanted to continue hugging this thigh.

Chen Qingsi said casually: "Kung fu is not just for showing off..."

Although he had made a decision, he was not in a hurry to show it off. He just said: "Depends on the needs of the court... let's go, it's time to build the city of Shoujiang!"

Chen Qingsi did not stay in the Sijie Department for long. Sijie Dilu was very ambitious and she could not fully control him yet. Too much in-depth contact would give the other party a handle.

It was also because of this that I controlled my lower body rationally last night.

Pure dancing...
