Chapter 55
It should be said that even the little girl recognized it as official script.But Wang Hua's official script is really weird.

The official script originated in the Qin Dynasty. The county magistrate Cheng Miao was imprisoned for some business. He had nothing to do in the prison, so he thought that the seal script writing was complicated, so he referred to the simple folk writing fonts and made the big and small seal scripts round and square, so It is called official script.But at this time, there are also a large number of seal script forms.It wasn't until the Han Dynasty that it was really carried forward, but at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it evolved from a mature stage to a more square one, but this made the calligraphy more neat than flexible.

Coupled with the rise of regular script, it was gradually replaced by regular script.But until the Tang Dynasty, people still called the regular script also the official script, just to distinguish it, and called the official script the octant.It was during this period of decline that there were still many masters of official script, such as He Zhizhang, who was best at cursive script and official script.But the most famous one is Han Zemu in the Tang Dynasty and Zhao Mengfu in the Yuan Dynasty, and they also tried to break through the Han method and added regular script in order to write new ideas.But it was not successful, and it did not write the ancient and lively look of the official script of the Han Dynasty.

Until the Qing Dynasty, more and more gold and stone inscriptions were unearthed because of the increasing popularity of gold and stone textual research, and finally set off a second wave of official script revolution in the calligraphy world.All the famous people came out one after another.The most famous ones are Jin Nong, Deng Shiru, Yi Bingshou, He Shaoji, Zhao Zhiqian and others.

Because of the deep theme of this lacquerware, Wang Hua gave up cursive script and regular script for this inscription, and adopted the calligraphy of another person he is good at, that is, Jin Nong's official script, to compose this inscription.

Jinnong's calligraphy, some people call it lacquer calligraphy, is very ancient and heavy.This style of calligraphy is the fourth most copied by Wang Hua in his previous life, and it is exactly in line with the original intention of this lacquerware.Moreover, in order to deliberately highlight this ancient clumsiness, Wang Hua adopted the brushwork technique in the nave of Jin Nong's "Xi Ye Zhi Lu Ji Mo Shuo".

For Wang Hua, this is normal, but for people like Tang Dynasty, it is quite astonishing.Cheng Donghan, the official script master of the Tang Dynasty, matured the official script. The shape of the characters changed from the original rectangle to a horizontal flat square, and the strokes also changed from the inward convergence of the seal script to the outward opening.But Wang Hua changed it back to a rectangle again, and also intentionally restrained the most unique feature of official script, the sharpness of the pen, inward because of its quaint appearance.

Maybe a layman will say what kind of words are written after seeing it, and even dismiss it.However, in the eyes of everyone like He Zhizhang, it is natural to see the magical effect of this kind of calligraphy.

Because of his respect for the poet, Wang Hua did not refuse.He brought paper and ink, but instead of writing the gold body on the inscription, he wrote another kind of calligraphy, which was an imitation of the official script of Zheng Ruqi, a calligrapher of the Qing Dynasty.Of course, Wang Hua is not capable of expressing his characteristics of flowing lines and elegant stippling.After all, he rarely copied this kind of handwriting in his previous life.Because of where Wang Hua's skills are, this line of writing is also like flowing water going to the ravine, and auspicious clouds flying into the sky.

Also in the eyes of He Zhizhang and Lao Du, this kind of official script is different from the official script of the Tang Dynasty, and some cursive script is mixed in it.So agile and lively.

Lao Du and He Zhizhang looked at each other, and dared not say, I came here specially to call you today.

I'm so scared, not to mention whether the writing is good or bad, this is jumping out of the nest of the predecessors. With this kind of wisdom, few people can do it, and Wang Hua is only 13 years old.

In fact, Wang Hua also knew that He Zhizhang was good at writing. Today he specially wrote several fonts, hoping to make him understand and write better characters in the future.It has nothing to do with showing off.

Wang Hua then wrote another line of characters, and this time changed to another style of calligraphy. At this time, he copied Wang Shimin's official script. Wu Weiye once advocated Wang's calligraphy as the best in ancient and modern times.This is not necessarily the case, but Wang's calligraphy is indeed extremely elegant and upright, especially the official script.Moreover, this kind of official script is also a great reference for He Zhizhang, because it refers to the true meaning of regular script, which is not much different from the official script calligraphy of the current Tang Dynasty official script masters, but similarly, he also jumped out of the flat square frame structure of official script, mainly rectangular .At first glance it looks like regular script.

Similarly, this line of words also gave a few people some useful thinking.

Wang Hua started to write the third line of characters again, and this time it was replaced by Gao Fenghan from Yangzhou Eight Eccentrics. This style of calligraphy looks like official script and seal script, but it looks neat and simple, and has a touch of cursive brushwork, so the ancient Rather than clumsy, it appears round and agile.It's the exact opposite of Jin Ti's deliberate pursuit of clumsiness.

It's the fourth line of characters again, this time the font is mixed with Han Bafen into Kaixing cursive, and the style immediately becomes sharper.This is Zheng Banqiao's six and a half official script.

After writing these four lines, Wang Hua stopped writing and said to several people, "Please advise."

A few people looked at Comrade Du, didn't you say that you are more talented than Qu Song? Come and teach me.

Old Du wiped the beautiful beard on his forehead, and coughed twice. Maybe laymen may not be charming enough when they see these words, but in their eyes, these words carry too much weight.Especially these fonts, he had never heard of them, so he dared not comment.

But Lao Du's brain is very good, he turned his head and changed the topic to the side.He pointed to this inscription, and asked cautiously: "Wang Xiaolang, why do I see that several of your inscriptions are in the form of ancient prose. With such talent, why don't you use parallel prose."

Wang Hua made a gesture of inviting them to sit down. After all, He and Du, let him respect him. This Li Longji may not have a good impression of him, but the future master did not bully him in Qizhenxuan to buy his lacquer dowry The shot is fair.

Then he said, "Tea, please."

The tea ceremony was very popular in the Tang Dynasty, and he also had a deep knowledge of tea ceremony paintings, but he only regarded the tea ceremony as an elegant thing.After all, it's too much trouble.

But because the guests who came today are more distinguished, Wang Hua had to perform it again.

First, take out a handful of new tea from the tea warehouse, that is, the tube containing the tea leaves, and put them in a saucer.This procedure is called appreciating fragrant tea, and according to the etiquette, it is necessary to introduce the characteristics of the tea to the guests.But if Wang Hua did this, he would be worthy of these people, let alone let him introduce him.Wang Hua omitted it directly.Next, it was Mengchen Linlin, that is, pouring boiling water on the body of the pot.When it's over, it's oolong into the sea, and put the tea into the pot.Then the hanging pot is high flushed, and boiling water is poured into the pot until the mouth of the pot is full.

This is not over yet, we have to blow off the foam at the mouth of the pot and let the spring breeze blow over our faces.Next, pour the water in the pot into the tea sea, which is a large cup.In this way, the floating dust of tea leaves is washed away, which is called fumigation and beauty.Then Wang Hua quickly put the teacup in the tea boat, that is, the big plate on which the teacups are placed.Then use the first brewed tea to scald the cup, this is called Ruochen out of the valley.Then fill the pot with boiling water again, which is called the jade liquid return pot.Then he moved the teapot along the tea boat on the table and scraped off the water from the bottom of the pot.This is called traveling in mountains and rivers.

Li Longji was even better.Poor little Comrade Liu looked at Wang Hua's dazzled movements anxiously, and thought to himself, it's too difficult to take a sip of tea.

In fact, this is the same as playing the guqin and burning incense to purify the body. It is a process of purifying the mind. Only through these beautiful and peaceful movements can the drinker's mind be calmed down, so that he can enjoy the fragrance of tea.

But it's time to drink it.Start pouring tea for each cup, just like Guan Gong patrolling the city, so it is called Guan Gong patrolling the city.Because the pot is small and the cup is small, remember, if you are thirsty, don’t drink this kind of Kung Fu tea ceremony, it will make you more and more thirsty, and you will finally overturn the tea table with your kick.

This is not over yet, because the pot is too small, it is impossible for every teacup to be full, first pour tea into the teacup, estimate how much tea is left in the teapot, and divide the tea into the teacups drop by drop , This is called Han Xin's order of troops.Until this time, Wang Hua took out the tea mat and placed it on the table, treating the guests with the respect of elder and younger, which is called worshiping fragrant tea.At this time, the guests can take out the tea cups from the sea of ​​tea and taste the tea soup, which is called tasting the fragrance and appreciating the rhyme.

Afterwards, there are several procedures for high flushing and low sieving, Ruochen re-bath, re-drinking the wonderful fragrance, rediscovering the fragrance, and pouring Liuxia three times.That is two tea and three tea soup.

But that's a matter for the future. At this time, everyone can drink tea and talk.

But Wang Hua's series of actions shocked several people again.Maybe it’s simple to say, but if you are not a professional, your movements are definitely not as elegant as Wang Hua’s. From the beginning of appreciating tea, Wang Hua’s movements are like an elf dancing. Although Wang Hua is wearing coarse clothes, but These few people looked again, but they seemed to see a trace of incomparably noble temperament in this young man.

Wang Huazhi only opened his mouth to answer Lao Du's question.In fact, if Wang Shu asked calmly that day, Wang Hua would not fight back, and even explained to him.

But before he could answer, he sighed.
