The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Yun Yan replied that he wanted to make a tapestry belt for Zhao Yunchu. Zhao Yunchu also ordered a pattern with a lotus flower pattern. First, he practiced Zen, and secondly, religious patterns were very popular at this time.

But Yun Yanhui didn't have any talent for painting. Although he knew one or two Kesi skills, he didn't know how to paint. After thinking about it, he had to find his good cousin.

Yun Yan went back to Zheng's house to find Zheng Ling. He came by coincidence. After a long time of struggle, this unlucky boy finally got the opportunity to negotiate with his grandfather. Although Yun Yanhui came as a friend of Zheng Ling, everyone knows what his identity is. Therefore, although men of the same generation are not received at the Yamen, a cousin of Zheng Ling also respectfully came to accompany him for tea. Up.

This cousin of Zheng Ling is two years older than Yun Yanhui. His name is Zheng Chen. He had a relationship with Yun Yanhui at Daxiangguo Temple. He has long heard of this cousin's name. Because I don't know how to keep close and distant relatives, I can only smirk and drink tea.

Yun Yan was at ease back and ate tea with her feet upright, "Why did you Aweng talk to Xiaoling?"

Zheng Chen said: "Brother Ling should be crowned in a few days. Brother Ling is the eldest son and grandson..."

Half of the story, but Yun Yanhui has already understood.

This eldest son and eldest grandson's crowning ceremony, do not invite others, the relatives of the family must be invited, it is not easy to fool people into the past, otherwise it is really a joke.

On the other side, the three generations of Zheng Li, Zheng Xun, and Zheng Ling's ancestors and grandsons gathered together, but the atmosphere was a bit nervous.

Zheng Ling was a little afraid of being beaten, but he still stubbornly looked at his father and Aweng, "I, my idea is like this, Awung, either you will kill me or make me perfect."

Zheng Ling had a headache, and sat for a while, holding his forehead, "It's really your cousin who took you so unruly."

Zheng Ling whispered: "What is the relationship with Ge Yan..."

"Isn't he here?" Zheng Ling suddenly beckoned, "Xun'er, you go and call him in."

Zheng Xun was taken aback, "Daddy, he is not our Zheng family. Isn't it okay for him to come in?"

Zheng Li closed his eyes, "Call him in."

Zheng Xun had to answer, and went out to invite Yun Yan back.

Yun Yan chuckled back and said as he walked with Zheng Xun, "Should you not persuade Zheng Ling, and call me to have a fight to vent my anger." He believed what he said to Zheng Xun that night. Got to know.

Zheng Xun was a little speechless, and brought Yun Yan back in. Yun Yan returned the gift from the younger generation and said hello, but he didn't treat him as a relative.

Zheng Li knocked his fingers on the table and said, "Brother Ling is as stubborn as your mother. I can't persuade him. However, Brother Ling is the eldest grandson. If he wants to enter the Hanlin Art Academy, others will not say what will happen to his close relatives. Look?"

Zheng Ling was overjoyed and showed some helpless expressions again. Yes, sometimes people live not only for themselves, but also for many other things and for the eyes of others. Even if his A Weng and A Daddy are intentional, it prevents others from doing it.

Zheng Ling actually approved Zheng Ling’s behavior, but he probably thinks that Zheng Ling’s reasons are not sufficient. He hopes that there is another reason that he can make up his mind to grant. Maybe he has been inciting Zheng Ling’s Yunyan to return to energy. Give this reason.

And judging from his current deeds, he is very good at this.

Yun Yan couldn't respond for two seconds, and he really gave a reason. He didn't say that you were too shameless, and the shameless thing was solved early.

"My mother hasn't done anything else at home in the past few years. She is writing a picture scroll depicting the prosperity of the market. It is the first food festival of Daxiangguo Temple drawn by Ling Geer. Now the original painting is kept in Daxiangguo Temple. The praiser does not know where it is, and the tapestry works have also been finished. I heard that the officials are also good at writing in their leisure time. The Academy can send the original and tapestry to the official family together. Not to mention, it can also make up for the Hanlin of the painting academy. Doing part-time work, I will slowly quit my job in Hongyou Temple in the future. In this way, Ling Geer is not a painter, but an emperor painter. What else can others say?"

Speaking of it, although several emperors of the Song Dynasty have loved the art of calligraphy and painting, the painters of the Hanlin Academy of Painting seem to have risen greatly during the Huizong period.

They both carry the word Hanlin, but the status of the Hanlin Academy and the Hanlin Academy can be said to be very different. The Hanlin Academy is a four-in-one, and non-jinshi does not enter the Hanlin. The Hanlin Academy of Painting is only a part of the Academy. There are also various other units of technicians, including piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, astronomy, etc., which are exclusively for the royal family and the court.

However, today, not all people in the painting academy are not taken seriously. What people despise is actually "painters" who are considered artisans. Most positions in the Hanlin Academy of Art do not even have official positions. They belong to people outside the first to the ninth grade, and they can even be regarded as officials.

And if you become a painter, you will be at the artist level. This imperial imperial service is obviously a watershed. Not only is it possible to serve as an official, but further up, there is also such as Gao Wenjin, the imperial official of the Taizong period, and so on. He has already become a favorite.

Therefore, it is still the same sentence, three hundred and sixty lines, if you are the best, you have to fight everywhere, and it depends on your choice.

Yun Yan looked back at Zheng Ling and fell into deep thought, and said: "Ling Ge'er's painting skills are definitely not faulty. This painting has been hung in Daxiangguo Temple for several years, and it is also famous. There is no need to worry about not entering the eyes of the officialdom— As long as the official aesthetics are fine."

Zheng Ling really doesn't worry about Zheng Ling's painterly, he actually knows it in his heart.

Not to mention, there is another very important element that they all know well, and that is Zheng Ping's Kesi works. This kind of tapestry theme is absolutely unique. With Zheng Ping's superb skills, it took several years to complete. This tapestry is not an exaggeration.

Using such an expensive carrier to represent Zheng Ling's painterly can make Renzong feel more worthwhile.

In addition to Renzong's generosity, Zheng Li, an old official, would suggest that without even thinking about it, this good old man would definitely go along with the flow.

This kind of utilitarian and tactical method is usually only used by those clans who are eating and waiting to die. Zheng Ling himself would not even think about it.

But at this time, Zheng Li's heart was moved, and he could have both official positions. If he took this as a good opportunity to transfer to the painting academy quietly, then he would really not lose his sense of nobility and deserve his family style.

Zheng Ling saw Zheng Ling's intentions and knocked down, "I hope Aweng will make it happen!"

Zheng Ling closed his eyes and said, "Nothing..."

…

Half a month later, Zheng Ling was crowned in the family temple, and his family’s elders were the guest of honor, and the word Feibo was awarded. And because his paintings and silk silk were originally presented for imperial viewing, they were collected by the official family, and on that day he was sealed as a painting academy for imperial edicts. Zheng Ling has fulfilled his long-cherished wish and is proud of the spring breeze.

There are many ways to enter the Hanlin Academy of Painting, the most common is the examination, which is usually the entry method of civilian painters. There are also hereditary, recommended and supplementary ones. Needless to say, hereditary is the inheritance between master and apprentice, father and son.

Recommendation means that a painter with a superb or prestigious painting skill is recommended by an official to enter the painting academy. Many folk artists have been unearthed in this way. Let alone, everyone can enthusiastically search for talents for the official family.

During the Taizong period, there was a street medicine seller who often painted small paintings on the medicine-packing paper, from ghosts to animals, all interesting. Later, it was discovered on the street by an official and recommended to Taizong. He was greatly appreciated and directly awarded to Hanlin to be edicted. It was a step forward-funny to say, it made Zheng Ling feel a little hopeless.

As for the supplementary entry, it is similar to the recommended entry, but it is not recommended by an official, but learned from other sources for the official, and then enters the drawing academy. It can be said that compared with supplementary entry, it is different from the proactive and passive nature of officialdom.

Zheng Ling's seal is somewhere between supplementary and recommendation.

For a time, the Zheng family's friends and relatives are only proud of, and they all praise him. After all, this represents the eyes of the official.

The tapestry is only said to be made by the Zheng family's female relatives. Everyone knows the craftsmanship of the Zheng family, and it has also been highly rewarded. Therefore, the former Zheng family also helped Yun Yan return, plus it was to help Zheng Ling, so here is an old story between Zheng Ping and her family.

When Zheng Ling was crowned, Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu also attended the onlookers as friends.

Zhao Yunchu wore the tapestry belt with lotus pattern made by Yun Yan back to work. He was complacent, and felt that he was the best in the world, so he couldn't help touching the belt when he saw people.

Yun Yan felt that it was really embarrassing to bring him to Zheng's house, and he was very embarrassed... I only hope that Zhao Yunchu would not tell others that he came out of it.

When Zheng Ling gave the crowning ceremony, Zhao Yunchu watched by the side, and then whispered back to Yun Yan: "Brother Yan, when you are crowned, it would be nice if I could be the official guest."

Yun Yan replied: "You are so beautiful."

Not to mention whether his family will be like the Zheng family, and what kind of ceremonies will be given. After all, many large families just simply give ceremonies these years. This righteous guest has to be respected, so where is Zhao Yunchu's respect? Remove the virtue and hope, he is really high! Really heavy! He was almost crushed to death when he was drunk last time!

This righteous guest still has to make a list of words for the crowned person. God knows what kind of words Zhao Yunchu can make.

Zhao Yunchu groaned: "That Yan Geer can be my regular guest..."

There was a picture in his mind. If he was in front of everyone and asked everyone to witness, Yan Ge'er took his hair and gave him a nickname...Ah no, the words...

Zhao Yunchu basically belonged to Hu Si's conjecture, and Yun Yan rolled his eyes back and said: "Well, if I can be your honorable guest, I will definitely give you a cousin, called Tiantian."

Zhao Yunchu: "..."

The author has something to say: Is Bao Zheng really so shocking that Zhan Zhao is younger than Zhan Zhao... In the original book, Bao Zheng is a beet child, and the county magistrate went to Kaifeng Mansion not long after he was admitted as a Jinshi, and it didn’t take long for Zhan Zhao to accept it. At that time, Zhan Zhao was "within thirties", so although the age is not stated, Bao Zheng must be younger...
