The bad emperor of Tang Dynasty

"Eh? It's none of her business." After hearing this, Guo Nuan suddenly raised her head, and just stared into Qiu Shaofu's eyes.

"The day before yesterday, Princess Siyi came to visit Mr. Yan with a volume of imitation ink, saying that it was sent by His Royal Highness, and came to discuss the calligraphy and poetry on the copy post. The old man and Mr. Yan are old friends for many years, and the old man happened to go that day He paid a visit to his mansion, so I was honored to see the ink-stained work of Consort Guo."

Qiu Shaofu smiled lightly, with a look of approval flashing between his eyebrows: "I didn't expect Guo Concubine to keep a low profile, and the graffiti in the apricot garden inadvertently made it possible for outsiders to know about your articles, haha."

"By the way, Master Yan and the old man were amazed by the extremely strange and thin freehand calligraphy. This kind of unique and unique style of brushwork is unheard of. The old man is very curious and wants to discuss the technique and philosophy with you, son-in-law."

Guo Nuan blinked and suddenly realized.It turned out that Princess Shengping leaked it.It was just strange that a large number of craftsmen were mobilized in the mansion yesterday to be busy outside the yard. The sound of knocking and knocking came intermittently, which made him unable to sleep well. When he passed by his far door, he still felt that The big stone wall transported by the craftsman looked familiar. It turned out to be the wall where I wrote a poem two days ago.

"Uh, who is that Mr. Yan you mentioned?" Guo Nuan embarrassedly scratched the back of her head.

At this time, Ah Fu was tasting the fruit brought by the maid, his mouth was full, when he heard Guo Nuan's words, he almost swallowed, and interjected:

"Master, besides the great calligrapher Yan Zhenqing, who else can there be, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Lord Yan?"

Qiu Shaofu nodded with a smile: "Yes, that's right, it's Yan Zhenqing, Mr. Yan, he admired your calligraphy a lot, and he also said that he will go to the Princess Mansion to visit Guo Consort when he is free someday."

"Oh, so it's Yan Zhenqing, I thought it was some kind of fairy." Guo Nuan nodded awkwardly.

"Wonderful! Yan Zhenqing? Is it really Yan Zhenqing!" Guo Nuan suddenly jumped up from the chair like an electric shock and yelled.

"He's the idol of me and my dad, where is he, where is he!" Guo Nuan rushed to Qiu Shaofu like a whirlwind, put his hands on his shoulders, and kept shaking the old man, shaking him to the ground. Meat and eight vegetables, staring at the stars.

"Young Master, your reaction is too violent. Although Mr. Yan is also a giant in the literary world, and Shilin admires him very much, he is not as out of control as you are."

Ah Fu sat in the lower seat of the living room, then said something lazily, and stuffed another mouthful of green dates into his mouth, making a crunching sound.

"He...he just went to Luoyang to inspect official duties, and the date of return is uncertain." Qiu Shaofu finally took a breath and spit out a sentence.

"What, I finally came to Datang, why did he disappear when I wanted to see him?" Guo Nuan wailed with frustration.

Regarding the words that came out of Guo Nuan's mouth, Ah Fu and Qiu Shaofu just thought he was talking nonsense and couldn't understand them at all.

For him in his previous life, Guo Nuan's calligraphy was enlightened by his father. Guo Nuan's father had always been obsessed with Yan Zhenqing's Yan style, so much so that the study room at home was full of copybooks of Yan style calligraphy.

His father often sighed and sighed, and once said to Guo Nuan: "Oh, son, the four masters of regular script are Zhao Mengfu, Liu Gongquan, Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, and Yan Zhenqing's style is what my father admires most.

It's a pity, I have been a primary school principal for decades, and I have worked hard for decades, and I have never embezzled the school's public funds, so I can be regarded as a clean leader.

Hidden from your mother, used part of the winnings as private money, didn't smoke, drank less alcohol, and saved more than twenty, but still couldn't afford half-axis calligraphy half-axis photocopying paper auctioned in the auction house. "

Due to the influence of his father, Guo Nuan is also a die-hard fan of Yan Zhenqing. Of course, besides Yan Zhenqing, his most respected calligraphy is Song Huizong's thin gold style. I'd be happy to travel again, but now he's in the Tang Dynasty.

After more than an hour's delay in Cailou, Guo Nuan and Ah Fu escaped Qiu Shaofu's enthusiastic dinner party and went back home.

"I will definitely ask Lord Yan Zhenqing to give you a few copybooks some other day. Farewell, Lord Qiu Shaofu."

When Guo Nuan walked out of the steps, she couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and bowed her hands to Qiu Shaofu to say goodbye.

Qiu Shaofu also waved off with a satisfied face, and in the other hand was holding a few volumes of ink calligraphy, which was exactly Guo Nuan's thin golden body.

"Wow, this is the treasure of Ouyang Xun's calligraphy. His regular script thousand-character prose, a work more than 100 years ago, if it is put up for auction in Chang'an Antique Store, it will only cost 1000 taels of gold. Isn't Qiu Shaofu's head smashed?" Well, although the young master's calligraphy is very good, it is worth changing a few volumes of posts? He is going to lose money."

Ah Fu was dumbfounded, sitting on the carriage and yelling all the way, he was very surprised that Qiu Shaofu and Guo Nuan exchanged copybooks.

"Ah Fu, you should be happy. It's your blessing to be the master of a new star who is about to rise in the calligraphy and literary circles. I can't see it if I were any other stupid bookboy who came to be the master. Keep your eyes peeled."

Guo Nuan completely ignored Ah Fu's words, and smiled in the carriage with the paper scroll in his arms, thinking: "It's developed, it's developed, it only took me a few volumes of thin gold characters, and Ouyang Xun's post fell through." If my father who lives in the 21st century knows about it, he will vomit blood and die without jealousy."

"By the way, young master, Master Qiu said that he would recommend you to take the examination of the imperial examination. Why did you retreat at that time? This is a good opportunity. With your talent and knowledge, a mere examination of the imperial examination is not easy. It's just around the corner, it's better than being an idle dude at home all day."

"Hey, Ah Fu, the young master usually lacks control over you, and he has become more and more courageous. Even the young master dared to run on you, and even called me idle. The livelihood of the four men is not because your young master is like a turtle all day long." I'm so busy." Guo Nuan was happy, got out of the car, and casually gave A Fu a chestnut on the back of his head while driving.

"Oh, young master, you are too harsh." Ah Fu immediately pretended to cry out in pain.

"Hey, put on the reins, if you overturn the carriage, you will die twice."

"What?" Ah Fu was speechless.

For Qiu Shaofu's recommendation, Guo Nuan was actually a little bit excited at the time, but he wanted to meet the emperor directly in the Jinluan Palace, his cheap old Taishan who had never met.

When we meet, who knows what questions the emperor is going to test, political theory?This is not too difficult for Guo Nuan. According to the feudal small-scale peasant economic model of the Tang Dynasty, he memorized a few macroeconomic concepts, combined with the actual feudal phenomenon, talked openly, and threw out a basket of modern economics In terms of technical terms, it should be possible to fool the ministers in the hall and the emperor's seven meat and eight vegetables.

Calligraphy test?Practice has proved that Guo Nuan's thin gold body is highly appreciated by Qiu Shaofu and Yan Zhenqing, and even the masters of calligraphy have recognized it, so there is no problem.But what Guo Nuan was concerned about was what to do if the emperor suddenly became poetic and asked a question out of his mouth.

Guo Nuan made a quatrain on the spot.He thinks that he is not Cao Zhi in the Three Kingdoms period. His elder brother Cao Pi put a knife on his head, and he can calmly toss out a poem of seven steps.

Guo Nuan was not fully sure about things that might be embarrassing on the spot. He never did it, so when Qiu Shaofu proposed to recommend him for an interview, Guo Nuan immediately passed this seemingly bright future. suggestion.
