The first legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 27 Good calligraphy

Li Mingda is very smart and has learned good calligraphy, especially Feibai style.

Compared with Li Shimin's Feibai style, her writing is almost so fake.

It's just that what Li An wants is not fake, he wants real. Although Li Shimin's calligraphy is good, if Li Mingda writes it, it is not real, but fake, so Li An still chooses Li Zhi.

"Sizi..." Li An smiled and looked at Li Mingda and said, "I just want your Ninth Brother's calligraphy treasure this time. If you also like monocular telescopes, I will bring you one next time I come here.

Today we will generously give in to Brother Jiu once, okay? "

Although he was very reluctant to leave, Li An spoke, and Li Mingda had no choice but to nod, and handed the monocular telescope to Li Mingda lonelyly, but here Li Zhi said happily: "Sizi, Ninth Brother The things you own don’t belong to you. Even if Brother Li likes to let me exchange my calligraphy treasure for it, this monocular telescope is nominally mine, but don’t worry, you can continue to play until you don’t want to play anymore. At that time, you can Just give it to Brother Jiu.

What is our relationship? "

"Haha. That's pretty much it!" These words made the lonely Li Mingda look happy, and he continued to look at the birds on the tree with the monocular telescope.

On the other side, Li Zhi looked at Li An and asked, "Brother Li, what do you want to write?"

"The king is the boat; the people are the water. Water can carry the boat, but it can also overturn it." Li An read out a passage that Li Shimin once said. Why did he write this passage? First of all, this passage was said by Li Shimin to himself. Li Zhi probably wrote this paragraph because Li Shimin said such words.

That’s why Ang Lee chose this passage.

Li Zhi also nodded quickly: "Yes, the last time the emperor told us this paragraph, hehe. Brother Li, have you prepared a pen, ink, paper and inkstone?"

"Of course.!" Li An took out the rice paper, brush and ink from his backpack. Here I want to explain why rice paper is needed, because rice paper can be passed down for more than a thousand years, and ordinary other paper cannot, Li An When passing through the cave, I discovered that the things I brought back from the Tang Dynasty would become quaint, as if they had experienced thousands of years. This was the case with Jin Kaiyuan last time.

So Li An knew that the cave would probably have traces of thousands of years after bringing things out from the Tang Dynasty, because this is a law of time. If ordinary paper is brought in, it will not be able to experience a thousand years of time when it comes out. Will shatter.

Only this rice paper can last for thousands of years.

Li An checked on the Internet and found that this rice paper had been available during the Tang Dynasty. However, it was during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty. Now it is the Zhenguan period, which is still quite a few years away, so Li An could only bring some with him. Xuan paper, only if Li Zhi writes the words on the rice paper can he be taken out of the cave.

As soon as the paper was revealed, Li Zhi felt a little surprised, because rice paper is really good, tough and moisturizing, smooth but not slippery, white and dense. When writing and painting, "ink is divided into five colors," that is, one stroke is completed, and the depth is The shades, textures are visible, the ink rhyme is clear, and the layers are distinct.

Fewer insects and longer life.Rice paper has been known as "the king of paper and thousand-year-old paper" since ancient times.

"Brother Li, your paper is really good." Li Zhi looked at the rice paper and couldn't help but admired it.

Li An smiled: "Good calligraphy comes with good paper. This is a brush and ink."

Because Li An bought his brushes and inks casually, Li Zhi clicked his tongue and said, "Brother Li, your brushes and inks are really mediocre. I can only make do with what I have."

After finishing speaking, Li Zhi picked up the writing brush, dipped it in enough ink, and then wrote on the rice paper, "The king is the boat; the people are the water."Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. 'Fourteen big characters, although Li Zhishan was considered immature at this time, his writing style has become mature. Every word is very beautiful, and Li An is very satisfied with it.

"Good words, good words, my monocular telescope is worth it, it's worth it." Li An was very happy.

Li Zhi looked happy when he saw Li An praising her handwriting for her good handwriting. Only Li Mingda frowned slightly. She really didn't know how her handwriting could not be as good as Ninth Brother's. Brother Li should Don't understand the words.Thinking of this, Li Mingda sighed.

Here, Li An carefully put Li Zhi's calligraphy into a mahogany box, as if it was a treasure. To be honest, Li Zhi's face turned slightly red when he saw this scene. , because his handwriting is really not worthy of such treatment. Although he is a prince and his handwriting is not bad, it is really not as good as this.

"Mr. Li's time is up."

After putting away the words, Liu Fangzi came over. He told Li An that it was enough time for the ice cream. Li An nodded: "Okay, I'll be right over."

Afterwards, Li An asked Li Mingda to wear an extra piece of clothing and took the two of them to the ice making place.

At this time, the three pools in the ice-making venue were all steaming with air-conditioning. It was a very thick air-conditioning. Li Zhi and Li Mingda were stunned. Then Li An ordered: "Uncover the straw mat." Open it and prepare the mulberry paper."

The so-called mulberry paper is a very thick paper that cannot be used for writing. It is basically used by vendors to wrap things. Li An uses mulberry paper to wrap ice cream.

In addition to mulberry paper, there are also large wooden boxes and straw quilts.

There was no cotton in the Tang Dynasty. There were generally only two types of quilts used in winter. One was the straw velvet quilt, which was made of a kind of grass velvet. This kind of straw velvet was very warm, just like the Ula grass in the Northeast. It could be stuffed into shoes. Prevent frostbite on your toes.

This kind of straw down can also keep you warm. The other kind is a duvet. The down of ducks and goose can be made into duvets. Of course, duvets are used by the rich, and those by the poor are made of straw. velvet.

First put the straw quilt into a square box, and then take out small wooden boxes one by one from the frozen wooden box. In the small wooden box is the already frozen honey sorbet.

The size of a piece is the same as the ice cream we had when we were kids.

"Wow!" After taking out the ice cream, both Li Zhi and Li Mingda showed surprised expressions.

Li An handed one to each of them and said, "Try it and see if it's sweet?"

After Li Zhi and Li Mingda took the honey sorbet, they each took a bite. They both nodded and said the sorbet was delicious. Of course, the honey sorbet was not that amazing to Li Zhi and Li Mingda, it was just average. Generally speaking, because the two of them never lacked ice, the iced drink they ate was far more delicious than this little ice cream.

It would be great if Li Zhi and Li Mingda nodded and said it was delicious.

Li Zhi and Li Mingda were just curious about how to turn water into ice. In fact, this sorbet was not delicious to them.

Then the boxing began. A total of 900 yuan of ice cream was packed into nine square wooden boxes. There were straw quilts in the wooden boxes, and a honey ice cream wrapped in mulberry paper, neatly packed. In a square wooden box.

A bag carried the wooden box behind him, and a total of nine people in two carriages carried the wooden box of ice cream to Chang'an City for sale. Li An looked at the group of people leaving and prayed silently, hoping that this first This sale can be a good start. As long as the sales are good, Li An can go back with peace of mind. This trip is worth it.

After a while, Li Mingda and Li Zhi also said goodbye to Li An, because they were princes and princesses and could not stay outside for too long. However, before Li Zhi left, Li An hoped that Li Zhi could take care of Hua Hua. Tamura has a business selling ice cream, and he also hopes to get [-] or [-] crossbows for Huatian Village, so that Huatian Village will not know that it is always being invaded by horse bandits.

Li Zhi agreed one by one, and finally Li An, Li Zhi, and Li Mingda hugged each other and waved goodbye.
