Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

After the new army commander and generals were appointed, Li Shimin ordered the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry to take action and began to select strong soldiers from various places. At the same time, he began to build a military camp in Xishan, called Xishan Camp.The number of the new army is also set at [-], including [-] infantry, [-] cavalry, and [-] heavy cavalry among the cavalry.

As a training envoy, Hou Junji was in charge of the training of the [-] new troops, so the appointment of Su Dingfang showed his closeness to Li Ke, and entrusted Su Dingfang with the task of forming the [-] heavy cavalry.This made Li Ke very happy, but at the same time, it also made him worry about how to deal with the matter of agreeing to Hou Junji's visit to his house.

As the days passed, the flowers, plants and trees in Chang'an City were slowly waking up and sprouting buds.Ma Zhou, Liu Rengui, and Xu Jingzong of the Han Palace also began to get busy.In September, the first Datang Cuju League hosted by Cuju Temple will be held.Therefore, the selection of the participating teams in the early stage, the arena and the formulation of specific details are all things they must do.

However, Li Ke's life is quite leisurely. He and the craftsmen in Fuzhong have not made any outstanding progress in the study of movable type printing.But he is not in a hurry, after all, before Bi invented movable type printing, people were using engraving.Therefore, it is common sense for craftsmen to find it difficult to understand things such as movable type printing that are beyond their imagination and scope.And he himself couldn't let Dong Boren and Chu Suiliang criticize him for not doing his job properly for this matter all day long.So he could only give pointers in his spare time, and the progress naturally slowed down.

One day in April, Li Ke finally felt that it would be unreasonable for him not to pay a visit to Hou Junji.Therefore, he specially chose a day when Hou Junji was not at home to come to Duke Lu's mansion.

When Ruoyi heard Hou Junji say that Li Ke would pay a visit to the mansion, she was so excited that she stayed up all night to paint, and after three days, she finally completed another portrait of a lady in her heart.However, she kept waiting for Li Ke to inscribe when he came to the mansion for a visit. After waiting for three months, there was no news after all, which made her feel melancholy and sad.But Hou Junji had been in the military camp for several months, Mrs. Hou Zheng was not her biological mother, so she didn't care much about her daily life.Therefore, after several months, she looked much thinner than before.

Every day, she would take out Li Ke's portrait, admire it carefully for a long time, and then carefully put it away.Sometimes, she also dreamed that she and Li Ke were talking about poetry, calligraphy and painting together in her dreams.However, every time this time came, she would suddenly wake up from the dream and find that she was already in tears.She didn't know why she was so sad, was it just for a man who only met once?It's just that she always feels that the relationship between herself and Li Ke is like a boundless world. She doesn't know when she will meet each other, and she doesn't know when she will wave goodbye.

In April, Chang'an City is already glowing with vitality. The tender green willows and fluttering catkins herald that this is another new year and there will be a new beginning.And Ruoyi opened Li Ke's portrait again in her boudoir, looked at it carefully, and sighed from time to time, "I miss you every day, but I don't see you, I only hope that your heart is like mine."

And just when she was lamenting and feeling sad, Xiang'er ran in frantically and shouted, "Miss, miss, His Royal Highness Han came to pay a visit, is he waiting in the front hall?" Then he said, "But the master is here The barracks, Madam is not at the house, go and have a look!"

When Ruoyi heard this, she stood up abruptly, and said excitedly, "Really? He's in the living room?" Then she walked outside, walked a few steps, then turned to Xiang'er and said, "You take that painting Take it, don't let him see it." Then he disappeared down the quiet path.

Xiang'er was stunned on the spot, and a person muttered, "The painting is in your boudoir, and he is not a master, how can he see it?" However, she thought about it randomly, and seemed to understand something, and said to herself, "No meeting?"

Li Ke had been to Hou Junji's Duke Lu's mansion, and it happened to be when Hou Junji was not around.Therefore, when the person invited him to the living room and asked him to wait a while, he felt very peaceful.He took advantage of the opportunity to sit down and drink tea while admiring the ink paintings hanging on the wall.Hou Junji was not here, so he happened to stay in the Hou Mansion for a while, so that even if he left, he could fulfill his promise to visit Hou Junji, so why not do it.

When he was concentrating on admiring an ink painting, he heard a voice beside him say, "Hou Ruoyi has seen His Highness the King of Han."

When he heard the voice, he turned around slightly, and was immediately taken aback. If this is not the woman in green at the Lantern Festival, who is it?kindness?How did she become Hou Ruoyi?No, could it be that he is Hou Junji's daughter.Thinking of this, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Seeing Li Ke looking at her, Ruoyi blushed slightly, and said in a low voice, "What do you think of the painting you admired just now, Your Highness?"

Li Ke was questioned by Ruoyi, only to realize that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly apologized, "Miss Hou, please forgive me, I was rude. The Lantern Festival has been away for several months. It is a great honor to meet you here today."

"So is Ruoyi." Ruoyi said softly, her eyes showed a deep affection, which surprised Li Ke a little. Could it be that she fell in love with him.I also feel that this doesn’t make sense, what do I have that others like?Therefore, he didn't know how to answer, so he said after a while, "Light ink and light mist are integrated, the brushwork is delicate, the three colors of black, white, and gray are used very well, and the layers are distinct. This painting has a special charm."

Ink painting began in the Tang Dynasty, developed in the Five Dynasties, flourished in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, continued to develop in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and modern times.Therefore, he thinks that the painting in front of him can achieve such an artistic conception, which is quite good.

Ruoyi heard Li Ke's evaluation, and smiled slightly, "Thank you for your compliment, Your Highness, Ruoyi dare not bear the words that light ink and light haze are one body."

"Don't dare to bear it?" Li Ke asked doubtfully, "Could it be that you painted this painting?"

"It's exactly what Ruoyi drew." Ruoyi replied softly.

Li Ke looked at Ruoyi in front of him in surprise. He didn't expect that Ruoyi was not only good at diction, but also good at painting.I can't help but sigh in my heart, I have learned painting for several months, but I am not as good as one-tenth of others.Suddenly, he felt funny again, why did he compare himself with her again.

"Miss Hou is so talented, I am deeply impressed." He said sincerely.

Ruoyi looked at his expression, his eyes did not lie, he was sincerely praising himself, and he was immediately happy, but he still said his own shortcomings, "Although the painting is not good, it is passable, it is just the calligraphy of the inscription on it. It’s a little disrespectful.”

Li Ke listened to what she said, and then appreciated it carefully. It was true as she said that the writing skills are not enough and the writing skills are not very mature. The current shortcomings." As soon as I finished speaking, I felt a little regretful, and felt that what I said was a bit good as a teacher.

But Ruoyi heard these words. It was Li Ke who taught her how to practice calligraphy. She blushed slightly and said in a low voice, "Thank you for your advice, Your Highness." Superb, Ruoyi wants His Highness to write an inscription for Ruoyi's painting, I wonder if His Highness will agree?" After she finished speaking, his heart was beating wildly, fearing that Li Ke would reject her.

Seeing the pleading in her eyes, Li Ke suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and replied casually, "Yes, as long as Miss Hou doesn't dislike my clumsy pen."

After hearing this, Ruoyi showed joy on his face, and Li Ke wondered why he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart after seeing her pleading eyes just now.

Li Ke promised Ruoyi to inscribe on her paintings, and Ruoyi took Li Ke to her boudoir.At first Li Ke didn't know that this was Ruoyi's boudoir, but when he sat by the desk and carefully lit it, he realized that he was in Ruoyi's boudoir.It's just that Ruoyi's boudoir is very exquisitely furnished, the study and the bedroom are connected together, the study occupies more than half of it, and the window exposed behind the curtain next to it may be her boudoir.He couldn't help cursing, "How could I be so careless as a man, how could I come to another girl's boudoir, it's too rude." Then, I regretted it in my heart.

But when he saw that Ruoyi was concentrating on grinding her, and showed no coyness by bringing him into his boudoir, he couldn't help but secretly scolded himself for being shameless, "The girls don't think about anything, but I think too much .”

Thinking of it this way, the anxiety in my heart has stabilized.Ruoyi opened a scroll after grinding the ink.What I saw was a beautiful woman with a generous figure, a quiet and elegant appearance.Seeing this, Li Ke's heart came up with three words "Picture of Lady".But seeing the girl in the painting is lifelike, especially the tenderness in her eyes seems to melt the ten thousand miles of glaciers in front of her.That look, that look, is enough to express any kind of love in the world, the longing and love for the beloved.

"It is indeed a superb work!" Li Ke said.

Then, he picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, but after all it was difficult to write.Because the painting was so good, he didn't know what verse to write on it.He didn't want to obscure the emotion that the whole painting wanted to express because of one of his poems that didn't fit the painting.Ruoyi didn't urge him, just stood beside him quietly and tenderly looking at him.For her, being able to stand beside Li Ke and watch him concentrating on his thoughts and his writing stroke by stroke is the happiest thing for her.

After a while, Li Ke finally thought of a poem. With a swipe of his brush, he wrote the poem on the picture of a lady with a few strokes.After Li Ke finished writing, Ruoyi just picked up the picture of a lady and read it carefully, "Ten miles of Pinghu is full of frost, and every inch of blue silk is worried about the past years. Looking at the moon shape and protecting each other, I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals." Ruoyi Qingrou Her voice couldn't help but be dazed after reading this, she didn't expect Li Ke to really appreciate the artistic conception of this painting.She made this painting because she missed Li Ke. She put her emotions on the woman in the painting and let her express her thoughts and admiration for Li Ke.

"There is such a person in life who understands me and understands me. What is there to be dissatisfied with? It is my happiness to meet him in this life and fall in love with him." Thinking of this, Ruoyi was delighted in her heart.
