Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 513

"Among the boundless sky and earth, sails and lonely shadows are far away. In troubled times, Fa-rectification exists, and a bright mirror hangs alone."

"Good poetry!" Li Canghai couldn't help praising the poems written by the scholar.

The scholar was writing seriously, when he suddenly heard applause, he raised his head immediately, looked at Li Canghai, cupped his hands and said, "I made you laugh at me, this is just a doggerel I wrote on the spur of the moment. Sorry for the word 'good'!"

"Hey, Xiongtai's words are different. In my opinion, Xiongtai's poem has profound meaning, intriguing food for thought, and contains a heart of worrying about the country and the people. Compared with those romantic poems, this is a well-deserved good poem." Poetry!" Li Canghai praised.

The scholar was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Li Canghai to be able to see the meaning of the poem.

"Brother, can you give me this calligraphy?" Li Canghai said.

Before he finished speaking, he looked at the desolate appearance of the scholar, and he suddenly realized, "Don't worry, brother, I don't want it for nothing. These are the rewards for this painting."

With that said, Li Canghai took out the money bag from his waist and threw it directly to the scholar.

The scholar took the purse, opened it, and saw that it was a golden ingot of horseshoe gold!

Now, many people gathered around.

The word stand that no one cared about was suddenly surrounded by water.

Everyone was amazed that the ingot of gold that Li Canghai threw over was worth twelve taels!
This is the twelve taels of gold that Zhang Wenyuan asked to take out from the cashier when he knew that he was going out to visit the temple fair, fearing that he would have no money.

Everyone looked at the scholar and the calligraphy and paintings behind him with great curiosity, wondering why someone would pay so much money for the calligraphy and paintings of a poor scholar.

"If brother wants it, I will give it to him as a gift. I really don't dare to accept this gold!" The scholar hurriedly returned the gold to Li Canghai, saying.

Li Canghai smiled indifferently, and said: "Just because of your poem and your kindness, it's worth these twelve taels of gold."

Anyway, this gold is not his, and he will not feel bad.

"It's unavoidable. This painting is not worth the money. How dare you accept the ten taels of gold? If brother likes this painting, it's really my luck. I'm willing to give it to you." Xiushi finished speaking After doing this, he paused for a moment, and said: "I just don't understand, this picture is just a casual gesture, why does Xiongtai value this picture?"

Li Canghai said indifferently: "Because this poem is destined for me, the first two lines of this poem hide my name, and the last two lines express my deepest thoughts, so I want to buy it!"

The scholar nodded when he heard the words, he bowed to Li Canghai, and said seriously: "If that's the case, then I won't be able to accept money from my brother. Brother can value this painting, so it's enough for me to say it." Yep. This gold is absolutely unacceptable to me."

Li Canghai smiled, and said, "Why don't you write me another poem on the spot, and I'll buy both. That way, you don't have to feel uneasy, how about it?"

After thinking for a while, Xiu Shi nodded and said: "Thanks to Xiongtai for being so respectful to me, I am naturally willing to show my shame!"

As he said that, Xiushi picked up the Langhao brush, dipped it in ink, and after a little thought, he immediately started to write on the paper.

"Looking at the past and present in the cold window of ten years, ghosts are as good as gods. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers hidden in the chest. Who will belong to Wei Gong?"

Li Canghai read these lines of poems, and suddenly looked at Xiushi strangely.

How capable is this scholar, who dares to say that ghosts are good at making decisions, and dares to call himself the Duke of Wei Li Jing?
Facing Li Canghai's weird eyes, the scholar didn't dodge the slightest bit, and looked at him calmly.

"Hey, this person has such a big tone, how dare he call himself the Duke of Wei?"

"That's right, look at his desolate appearance, his clothes are tattered, yet he still speaks so loudly, he's not afraid to flash his tongue!"

"I'm afraid these ten taels of gold will be taken back by this young master..."

The onlookers whispered and pointed at the scholar.

The scholar didn't care about other people's eyes, but stared straight at Li Canghai.

Li Canghai stroked his chin and asked, "May I ask what your name is?"

"Li Guangbi," Xiu Shi replied.

"Li Guangbi? You said your name is Li Guangbi?" Li Canghai asked hurriedly as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"My husband doesn't change his name when he walks or sits down. My name is indeed Li Guangbi." Xiushi said sternly.

Li Canghai looked him up and down a few times, and said, "I remember the Anbei Governor's name is also called this, but he is a general."

The scholar shook his head helplessly, and said: "I made Xiongtai laugh at me. This is the Li Guangbi that Xiongtai talked about. In fact, he is just a frail scholar."

Li Canghai's eyes shone brightly, as if he had met a treasure, and he burst out laughing.

Xiu Shi was stunned for a moment, he looked at Li Canghai in puzzlement and said, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Li Canghai laughed for a while, and suddenly said very seriously: "I want all these two calligraphy. Xiongtai's achievements will be limitless in the future. If I can use these ten taels of gold to sell Xiongtai's calligraphy, I will make a lot of money, haha Ha ha!"

"Brother, let me repeat the same sentence, if you like it, brother, just take it, this money is absolutely unacceptable!" Xiu Shi waved his hand.

Li Canghai thought for a while, then walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a letter on paper, and then handed the letter to the scholar, saying: "Take this letter to Guo Ziyi, you will be reused, and you will have no future." Can be limited!"

Xiu Shi accepted the letter in doubt, opened it and looked at it, his face suddenly became serious.

"So you are..."

Before the scholar could speak, Li Canghai winked at him, stopped his words, and said deeply: "Brother Li, after this Tang Dynasty, I will depend on you. Serve the country faithfully! Let Brother Li treat the twelve taels of gold as money!"

Li Guangbi put the envelope close to his body, bowed deeply to Li Canghai, and said gratefully: "I will definitely do my best, and I will live up to my brother's kindness!"

The onlookers heard the conversation between the two and looked at them with weird eyes.

"Using ten taels of gold to buy two pieces of calligraphy, could it be that the calligraphy of this down-and-out scholar is so rare?"

"That's right! Seeing that this guest official spends a lot of money, he is definitely not an ordinary person. The words he likes must have something extraordinary, and there is no guarantee that he will not be as valuable as Wang Xizhi in the future!"

"That's right! Then I want a picture! Sir, give me a picture!"

"Yes, yes, I want too!"

……

Soon, the people around the calligraphy booth asked Li Guangbi to write poems one after another.

Li Guangbi nodded gratefully to Li Canghai, and then splashed ink according to everyone's request.

After finishing a copy, put the words on the left hand side.

Li Guangbi wrote more than ten characters in one breath, and the paper on the left hand side gradually piled up.
