Chapter 44 Writing
"Wang Jiancheng, do you really not know how to write?"

Wang Xiang had black lines all over his head, and he swore that if Li Zhi asked again, even if he was a prince, he would slap his ass hard twice. After leaving Lizheng Hall, this brat has already asked the same question eight times. Looks very happy all the time.

But Wang Xiang was not happy.

"I said it's not that I can't write, but that I can't write with a brush!"

Li Zhi raised his head, nodded, opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Oh, that's right, I don't know how to write with a brush."

Sensing that Wang Xiang was on the verge of breaking out, Li Zhi wisely didn't ask any more questions, but he was happy: So Wang Jiancheng can't write, I don't know if Sister Xiaowu knows, and the queen mother asked me to teach him to write, so how could I? Isn't it his teacher?
……

"Sister Xiaowu, do you know that Wang Jiancheng can't write!" As soon as he entered the gate of the Hou Mansion, he saw little loli kicking shuttlecocks in the yard, and Li Zhi ran over excitedly. Wang Xiang, who was following behind, heard him shout When he came out, he staggered and almost tripped over the threshold, this brat is too immoral.

"Young slave, what are you talking about?" Little Lolita obviously hadn't reacted yet, she caught the shuttlecock and looked at Li Zhi strangely.

Li Zhi excitedly said: "Today, Wang Jiancheng entered the palace to study with his mother, and his mother asked him to write a few words, guess what?"

Before the little Lolita could speak, Li Zhi laughed to himself: "Haha, it turns out that Wang Jiancheng can't write."

Li Zhi was complacent and suddenly felt a shadow over his head. He raised his head to see Wang Xiang's fiery eyes and coughed dryly: "It's not that he doesn't know how to write, it's that he doesn't know how to write with a brush..."

"Child slave, you make me feel very sad. I wanted to teach you some tricks to pick up girls, but now I am hesitant." The relationship with him has also become much closer, and he is directly called a childish slave in private. As for the saying of "pickup magic skills", it was accidentally revealed during a life discussion. Zhi admired the five-body cast.

"Wang Jiancheng, I was wrong, I promise not to say that you can't write again, that magical skill of picking up girls..."

"What magic trick to pick up girls?" Little Lolita obviously didn't understand the mystery of what the two of them said, and she became more and more confused.

"No, it's nothing." Li Zhi was afraid that Little Lolita would get to the bottom of this issue.

"Then why do you say that brother-in-law can't write?"

"I..." Li Zhi raised his head and glanced at Wang Xiang, seeing that he was determined to give up on him and said dejectedly, "I'm talking nonsense."

He originally wanted to improve his image in the eyes of the little loli by combating Wang Xiang's inability to write, but he had to give up this rare opportunity for the sake of his magical skills.

Little Lolita glared at him in dissatisfaction: "That's right, brother-in-law's poems are known throughout Chang'an City, how could he not know how to write? A childish slave will talk nonsense."

I'm not talking nonsense, knowing how to write poetry doesn't mean knowing how to write.Li Zhi burst into tears but could only hold back the words in his heart, he looked aggrieved like a bitter woman.

"Ernan, are you bullying His Royal Highness King Jin again?" Wu Shun went out just in time to see the arrogant little Lolita and the dejected Li Zhi, and immediately blamed the little Lolita.

"Sister, I didn't bully him, he just said that brother-in-law can't write." Little Lori ran to Wushun and took her arm, coquettishly.

"Husband can't write?" Wu Shun looked even more surprised.

Depend on!It seems that something must be done for my own dignity!

Wang Xiang waved his hands and shouted: "Little girl!"

"Master."

This girl didn't know where she was hiding in a corner, and she jumped out as soon as she heard Wang Xiang's shout.

"Go and pluck some goose feathers for the young master. Remember to pick the harder ones at the back of the tail."

The little girl was confused: "Master, what are you doing plucking goose feathers?"

"Just go if you are told, there are so many problems."

It was rare to see the young master so imposing when Xiaoya didn't dare to ask more questions and turned around to find the goose to pluck the feathers. The side courtyard usually raises a few chickens and geese for the family to eat.

"Husband, why did you ask Xiaoya to pluck goose feathers?"

When Wu Shun asked Wang Xiang, naturally he would not continue to pretend to be aggressive, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Writing."

What does writing have to do with goose feathers?Everyone is a little puzzled.

Xiaoya soon came back with a few goose feathers. I heard that the young master wanted them. These goose feathers were plucked by Aunt Lin herself. The hardest hairs were picked from the back of the goose tail. Wang Xiang took the goose feathers and looked at them. Look quite satisfied.

Everyone curiously followed Wang Xiang into the study room. There was no study room in the mansion. After Wu Shun came, a room was vacated and furnished as a study room. Wang Bing used to only know how to wield knives and guns. The dandyism, so things like the study room are useless at all.

If Ningxiang’s decoration is characterized by extreme luxury and full of temptation, then Wushun’s study room gives people the feeling of freshness and elegance, which makes people feel refreshed.

Even Li Zhi couldn't help but praise: "What an elegant study."

Little Lolita said triumphantly: "Of course my sister's study is elegant." That arrogant look seemed to be the study that she arranged.

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone are all available in the study room, and there are many classics and poems on the bookshelves, some brought from the Wu family and some bought from the bookstore. Books in the Tang Dynasty were very precious things. It is not easy to have many books, but Wang Xiang has no interest in these ancient documents, and Wu Shun usually reads them.

Seeing Wang Xiang spreading out the rice paper but holding a goose feather instead of a brush to trim and trim it, the little loli asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

"Make a pen."

Wang Xiang took the modified quill pen and felt the texture, nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "It's done!"

"This is... a pen?"

Everyone also realized that the pen that Wang Xiang said was the goose feather in his hand, and it was hard to believe. The production of a brush is actually not easy. Except for the brush craftsmen who specialize in making brushes, it is not easy for ordinary people to make a brush by themselves. , and Wang Xiang just picked a goose feather and trimmed it casually, and said it was a pen, so it would not surprise people.

"Try it and you'll know."

This sentence is the most common sentence Wang Xiang said after he came to Datang.

Dip the quill pen into the ink. Wang Xiang looked at the white rice paper on the table and hesitated again. What should I write?

Three Character Classic!This thing has been memorized since childhood.

Seeing that Wang Xiang really wrote with a goose feather, Li Zhi opened his mouth in surprise. He thought that Wang Xiang's previous statement that he could not write with a brush was just a cover-up. Unexpectedly, what he said was true. He could not write with a brush but knew how to use a goose feather. Write, and write very skillfully!
The full text of the Three Character Classic is more than 1000 characters, because Wang Xiang did not make any mistakes this time after returning from Empress Changsun, and took the initiative to filter out the part of the Tang Dynasty and after the Tang Dynasty.After finishing writing, Wang Xiang put down the quill pen to look at his work and was very satisfied. He has practiced pen calligraphy since he was a child. Although writing with a quill pen on rice paper is a bit awkward, it is generally not bad.

As soon as Wang Xiang finished writing, everyone gathered around him.

"Husband can write such good characters with goose feathers!"

Hearing Wu Shun's exclamation, Wang Xiang was very proud, but he still pretended to be modest and said: "So-so, so-so."

Little Lolita curiously picked up the goose feather dipped in ink and studied it. Seeing this, Li Zhi leaned over to take a closer look, but unexpectedly, Little Lolita just shook the goose feather. As a result, Li Zhi's face bloomed a little. black flower.

……

Although the ink on his face was washed off, Li Zhi felt extremely depressed when he thought of everyone leaning forward and backward laughing just now.

"Young slave, don't be angry. I didn't mean it. Who knew you would come over to take a look." Little Lori felt a little embarrassed seeing Li Zhi's gloomy mood, so she suppressed her smile and apologized in a low voice.

This is the first time that little Lolita has been so gentle to him. Li Zhi's depression is gone, and he immediately smiled: "I'm not angry."

After speaking, he curiously pointed to the rice paper filled with the Three Character Classic and asked, "Wang Jiancheng, what is this?"

When Wang Xiang heard the words, he turned his head and saw that Li Zhi was pointing at a comma in the Three Character Classic. He habitually wrote the punctuation mark when writing the Three Character Classic, but there was nothing to hide.

"This is a comma."

"What about this?"

"It's a period."

"What is a comma and what is a period?"

Li Zhi was still a curious baby, and Wu Shun also looked at Wang Xiang with a puzzled expression. She had read a lot of books but had never heard of commas and periods.Wang Xiang smiled and explained: "I'm more afraid of trouble. When I'm reading, I'm most afraid of breaking sentences, so I came up with these two symbols. The place where a sentence is not finished is marked with a comma, and the place where a sentence is finished must be replaced. When a sentence is marked with a period, it will be much easier to read the book."

Li Zhi heard the words and tried to read the Three-Character Classic, and it was really clear at a glance, and it was very easy to understand, but he became more and more surprised when he continued to read it. After reading the whole article, Li Zhi was able to understand it completely.

"The three-character scripture?"

Wang Xiang knew what Li Zhi wanted to ask, so he said casually, "I just thought about it when I was free, and I just used it to practice calligraphy today."

"Are you thinking randomly again..." Li Zhi was hit by Wang Xiang again.Wu Shun looked at Wang Xiang with full eyes. She found that this lazy and carefree husband was getting more and more difficult. The cheongsam, the quill, and the three-character scriptures all revealed unusual wisdom.

Li Zhi spent another meal at Wang Xiang's place, and when he left, he begged for two apples, the quill pen, and rice paper with the Three Character Classic written on it.

The moon and stars were sparse, the evening breeze was blowing, and occasionally insects could be heard outside the window. Wang Xiang was lying on the bed thinking, and Wu Shun was making cheongsams under the oil lamp.

"What did my husband learn from the queen when he entered the palace today?"

Wang Xiang tilted his head and said, "I didn't learn anything, I peeled an apple for the queen."

"The quill pen and the three-character scriptures were deliberately taken away by King Jin?"

Wang Xiang smiled noncommittally, and the chirping of insects outside the house became more joyful.
