Painter

Chapter 243 92: Night Weaving
Li Wushang opened his eyes wide, stunned that this guy dared to act like a lesson to the children, he forgot his anger for a moment.

When she came back to her senses, she smiled angrily, "Well, you Li Dan, you are so talented in vain, but you are so small-minded! My master wants to reconcile with you time and time again, why do you cling to a little bit of festivals so tightly? Trick me!"

Li Chan raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, "I don't remember any quarrel with His Highness, Your Highness misunderstood me."

Li Wushang looked at the other party's reluctance, and just wanted to get angry, but saw Li Peijie stretched her neck and looked over here curiously. She took a deep breath, held back her anger, and said "OK" a few times He sat down and said, "Isn't it just an endorsement, bring it!"

The frightened maid at the side quickly took a copy of "Internal Training" from the bookcase and presented it, and thoughtfully turned to Chapter 7 for the princess.

Li Wushang gritted his teeth tightly, but he knew that Li Dan came here under the orders of his superiors, so it would be a bad idea to fight against him at this time.

Isn't it just an endorsement?

This chapter is only a thousand words, so it doesn't matter if you memorize it, let's see what other dirty tricks he has.

Thinking of this, she calmed down a bit.

When I saw the first sentence of that chapter, it was: "Abstaining from extravagance must be preceded by frugality. Fudan cultivates character..."

Good guy, how does Li Wushang look at it, the word "Dan" in the book is like the face of Li Dan.There was another fire in her heart, and she slapped her right hand hard.

Even Li Peijie who was not far away was startled.

The maid next to her shrank her neck in fear, and looked at Li Dan pleadingly. Why did Mr. Xindao tease the princess like this, and when the princess went back, he had nowhere to vent his anger. Didn't he suffer from them, the doormats?

Li Chan looked at the book, but luckily the pages were not torn. He sighed: "Your Highness, the books in this pavilion are all rare and rare books, so don't treat them lightly. Besides, you don't spare paper and paper, and you live with disrespect for gods and Buddhas, and parents who are not filial." , Your Highness must not do it again."

Although Li Wushang was resentful, he knew he was wrong, so he snorted and turned the book without responding.

Li Chan went back again and started teaching Li Peijie.

After half an hour passed, he returned to Li Wushang's desk, and said with concern: "Your Highness has not read a book for a while. Although this article is not difficult to memorize, it is not easy. If Your Highness does not concentrate, I am afraid it will be difficult to read." familiar."

Li Wushang has a very high spirit, and he claims that his writing and ink are not inferior to others, but the essays of a thousand characters, and there are no awkward words, of course it is easy to memorize.But Li Tan asked to recite it, so she obediently recited it, how could she bear this humiliation.Besides, she was still angry, so she couldn't calm down to recite the book. Up to now, she only managed to read half of the chapter, and she really didn't memorize it.

But Li Dan said so, how could she show weakness and admit that she really didn't memorize it.He snorted coldly and didn't respond.

"It seems that His Highness didn't memorize it." Li Chan smiled, "It's okay, His Highness will go back and write the note ten times, and I think he will be able to recite it back and forth tomorrow..."

……

Li Chan went to the residence of the six princes to teach the nine princes how to read and practice. The content taught was rotated every other day.

So on the second day at the Liuwang residence, he used a copy of "Taoism" in the academy to teach Li Peijie the method of Taoism.

After teaching Li Peijie, she went to Erya Building again. Princess Lingbi brought ten copies of "Internal Training" Chapter 7.

The ten chapters of the book were all copied in teeny-headed lowercase script, and the handwriting was exquisite. After reading it, Li Chan nodded and said, "Not bad".

Li Wushang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still had a cold face, "What the master told me, the master has finished."

"Not in a hurry." Li Chan pointed to the word on the paper, "This sentence is written as 'Jinxiu Huahuan' in the rare book in Eryalou. Gorgeous', think about it, there is no difference in meaning between the two, but it is better to be more rigorous in learning, Your Highness will copy down the four characters of 'splendid and gorgeous', there is no need to copy too much, just one time."

Li Wushang frowned and said: "It's just a word difference, I already know it, why do I have to copy it on paper?"

Li Chan didn't seem to hear it, and brought her pen and ink attentively, and said "excuse me" to the maid.

The maid was a little at a loss, she still spread the paper and rubbed the ink tentatively, and handed the pen to Li Wushang.

With a sullen face, Li Wushang picked up the Zihao pen and slowly wrote down the four characters "Splendid and Gorgeous".

These four characters are very similar to the teeny lowercase script on the ten chapter book written by the note. However, who is Li Chan, who used to make a living by fake calligraphy and painting in Xuandu. The characters are so similar to each other."

Li Wushang's heart skipped a beat, and he said stiffly, "What do you mean, sir?"

Li Chan said: "His Royal Highness's handwriting is more coherent than the handwriting written in this copy. And the handwriting of this handwriting is heavier and lighter. It is not written by His Majesty."

Li Wushang frowned and said, "Sir, do you have evidence for what you said?"

"Whether there is any evidence, His Highness knows it well." Li Chan shook his head and sighed, "Although there are a lot of books in these ten chapters, but if you put your heart into it, you can copy them in a few hours. Your Highness is so deceitful, it is better to bring them with you." Here are ten blank sheets of paper. Although I don't want His Highness to suffer, I have to punish him. Count the ten times owed yesterday, and add ten more times today. His Highness will write twenty times tomorrow, and bring them to Erya Building. "

Li Wushang said coldly: "Li Dan, do you insist on me copying books?"

Li Chan said earnestly: "Your Highness, don't cheat any more this time, you will be fine after copying it twenty times, otherwise it will only accumulate more and more..."

Before she finished speaking, Princess Lingbi walked out of her seat angrily.

……

Out of the Erya Building, the maid followed Li Wushang and walked down the corridor. She tentatively asked: "Your Highness, should the lady Wang copy the twenty books? Xueshi Li has sharp eyesight, so I have to ask the lady to read it again." Write carefully."

Li Wushang didn't hear what the maid said at all, he glanced sideways at Er Ya Lou, and cursed "Tian She Nu".

After walking a few more steps, she asked the maid, "What did you just say?"

The maid said anxiously: "I just said that the [-]-fold book was copied by the Queen..."

"Copy, copy what a fart!" Li Wushang took a deep breath, and remembered the first sentence of that chapter, "Sustainability" in the first sentence, and said bitterly: "Such a bird, raise his mother's talent!"

……

Another day.

Li Chan came to Erya Building, but she didn't see Princess Lingbi, only the maid who was always by her side.

"The weather has been very hot recently, and the spiritual method to avoid the summer heat in the house is a bit cold. Yesterday, His Highness was greedy for the cold. After resting by the pool for a long time, he caught the wind and cold. It is really inconvenient to come here today. I hope you will forgive me."

"Oh? Have you seen the doctor?"

"Yesterday evening, Dr. Curse Jin from the Imperial Medical Office came and prescribed a dose of talisman water for His Highness to recuperate. Don't worry, sir. It's not a serious illness. It's just that His Highness has been in the past for a while...I'm afraid he can't bother to worry about it anymore. "

"It's not a coincidence..."

"His Highness is a little sick. His Highness cannot copy the books that Mr. asked. Please accept these small gifts. Your Highness said that she will learn from Mr. after she recovers."

After the maid finished speaking, the eunuch next to her handed over a plate of silver taels.

"I won't accept this gift."

"His Highness said, sir, to give lectures, this is a well-deserved training."

"You didn't even talk about a chapter of the book, so why do you pay for it?"

"This..." The maid was speechless.

"I brought a gift to His Highness. Since His Highness is unable to show up today, please trouble this lady to bring it for me."

……

In the water pavilion of the Six Kings' House, Jiang Ru stood by the pool with his hands behind his back, looking at the stone sculpture of the Negative Frost Bird in the pool.

Gusts of cold wind blew across the continuous emerald green lotus cover, rushing head-on.

Jiang Ru took a breath of fresh air and said with emotion: "This is really a good place."

Li Wushang stepped on a lotus leaf, and her figure rose and fell slightly with the lotus leaf. She played with the pink buds on the stem and said with a smile, "Come here often if you like."

Jiang Ru looked at Li Wushang, and said with a smile, "I heard that you were sick, so I came here to see you, but how can you look sick?"

"Why, are you still expecting me to be sick?" Li Wushang smiled, and then snorted coldly, "It's not because of your classmate that I pretended to be sick. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even want Shu Xiu Give it to him, it's a waste of money for this farm slave."

"If you keep fighting with him, you won't be able to please anyone." Jiang Ru smiled, "But I didn't realize that he is actually a master who will take revenge."

"Your Highness!" There was a distant whisper from among the lotus leaves.

Not long after, the maid came from the other side of the pool.

Li Wushang left the lotus leaf and asked, "Did the farmer leave?"

The maid felt that the address of His Highness was really impolite due to the presence of outsiders, so she took a careful look at Jiang Ru and said in a low voice, "Let's go, but Xueshi Li didn't receive the cash."

This was not out of Li Wushang's expectation, she nodded and said: "That's good, it's not in vain to take advantage of him."

The maid said again: "Xueshi Li also gave His Highness a gift."

"He gave me a gift?" Li Wushang raised his eyebrows, and the disgust in his heart eased a little. After all, Li Dan didn't dare to offend people severely. She stretched out her hand and said, "Let me see."

The maid handed over the scroll.

Jiang Ru gave a light snort, "Could it be a painting?"

Li Wushang was also very surprised, Li Dan's behavior was unpredictable, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

When I opened the scroll, I saw that in the painting was a yarn worker who was about the same age as Princess Lingbi.

The moon hangs high outside the window, the night is already deep, and the house is lit like a bean, and the female worker stays up all night.

Looking at the painting on the paper, Li Wushang seemed to hear the sound of water washing silk cocoons, the caressing sound of spinning silk, and the creaking sound of looms.

On the white and tender catkin she was holding the drawing paper, it seemed that her hands were full of calluses.

The painting is inscribed with the words "Night Weaving Picture", followed by a postscript: "In the Weaving and Dyeing Lane of Renshanfang, Yujing, there is a girl who washes yarn. The mother does not marry, and she is self-sufficient in weaving. She washes yarn all night, and the rooster crows to make cloth. So it is called 'Chicken Crowing Cloth'. Choose the best quality from this cloth, save one out of a thousand, weave the clothes, and send them to the heavenly family. Your Highness does not accept the clothes that are washed and washed, and the workers and women work for several months. They are thrown away day and night. I believe that "Internal Training" is a warning, but the truth in the book is not as good as what you see with your own eyes. Therefore, I present this picture. The poem says: "It's for the rice and rice, and it's useless to serve it." If your highness can quit extravagance, it will be the luck of the people. .”

Li Wushang stared at it for a long time before leaving the drawing paper. When he came back to his senses, his body was sweating a little, as if he had just turned into a female worker in the painting and weaved the cocking cloth overnight.She thought that Li Dan was looking for trouble for her because of the festival, but now she realized that Li Dan really wanted to persuade her.

On the side, Jiang Ru murmured, "This is strange. Since he became famous, it's the first time I've seen him give paintings to others."

Li Wushang's cheeks became hot, and she suddenly felt a little ashamed. She put away the scroll, looked in the direction of Er Ya Lou, and murmured in her heart: "Is this man a real gentleman?"
