Chapter 363: A Hundred Years Plan
Qing Niang brought back a lot of rare books from Japan, considering that Hangzhou has the best engraving technology, Yang Yi asked Li Gui to take it together, and each book was printed in 1,000 copies.
In addition to preparing to bring one volume back to the palace collection, the other Yang Yi does not plan to sell and give away half like the last "Dream Creek Pen Talk" and "Qingqing Pen Talk".
How expensive is it this time, how to sell it! His mother's, me and Qing Niang have made such a great contribution to the economy and culture of the Great Song Dynasty, and you still impeach me! Impeach me one by one...
Besides, how many nights did Qing Niang stay up to sort out the rare books, it would be good to be able to sell them to you.
Yang Yi stayed in Hangzhou because he was sick, and he never stepped out of the door except for burning incense in Lingyin Temple with Qing Niang. These days, they are also closed-door thanks, including Lu Xiyu and Meng Zhaonian, who came to visit, and Yang Yi also pretended to be sick in bed and barely received them.
In addition to thinking about some economic and commercial tax issues, Yang Yi spent most of his time learning painting skills with Qing Niang, Li Yi had also studied painting before, but his achievements were not high; After all, at his age, in order to cope with the imperial examination, most of the time was spent studying a subset of scriptures and history, and learning to paint was just a way to cultivate sentiment.
And Qing Niang is also average in painting, not outstanding, the two of them took the paintings of their predecessors, carefully copied, splashed ink every day, although there is a suspicion of making a car behind closed doors, but they are happy; Looking at Qing Niang's graceful posture and Fang Lanyan's graceful state, Yang Yi has infinite motivation to learn.
In any case, interest is the best teacher.
Learning to paint with Qing Niang, Yang Yi feels that there is still a lot of progress, if he paints the back, he can also paint the ladies to be beautiful, but unfortunately the beauty is unbearable, and it becomes ugly when he looks back.
"Qing Niang, look at this, I'm afraid I won't be able to draw you until I'm a hundred years old, so I said okay, you must live a long life!" Yang Yi's hands were a little tired, and he put down his pen and rubbed his wrist while saying.
Qing Niang's dress is as green as bluegrass, and her pretty face is the most beautiful flower blooming on the blade of grass.
"Brother Yang, even if you are a hundred years old, you will have white hair and frost lines on your face, what does it matter how well you draw?"
"Hah! Qing Niang! It turns out that you also love stinky beauty! ”
Qing Niang found that she was surrounded by her, and was embarrassed for a while, pinching his arm unruly, and her coquettish attitude showed the beauty of youth.
Yang Yi grabbed her fragrant shoulder and said softly: "Don't worry, Qing Niang, even if a hundred years have passed, Brother Yang will still remember what you look like now." ”
"But if that's the case, it doesn't matter if people live to be 100 years old or not."
"Of course it's important, very, very important! Because only if you live to be a hundred years old, I can live to be a hundred years old. ”
"Brother Yang......"
Qing Niang's eyes couldn't help but float with a layer of hot mist, hugging his waist tightly, and the head of the mantis moved gently in his arms.
Yang Yi patted her on the shoulder and smiled: "Okay, Qingniang, let's continue." ”
Qing Niang did not move, still tightly hugged his waist, a wisp of floating clouds outside the window floated by, bringing a spring shade to the courtyard, and on the green tiles of the east chamber, it was still sunny, and the staggering of a yin and a sunny day added a pleasant tranquility.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, Qing Niang hurriedly let go of him, Yahuan Xiaoai took a pair of scissors to cut flowers and leaves, walked to the door and said lightly: "Big official, there is a son named Mi Youren outside the door who asks to see." ”
"What kind of rice has worms, haven't I told you, I'm on sick leave now, and I don't see any outsiders."
"The big official forgives the sin, and the servant also knows, but the second gatekeeper said, this Mi Gongzi said, report his name, the big official will definitely meet you, and the servant will come to report."
"Missing ......"
"Brother Yang!" Qing Niang called softly and said, "Brother Yang, aren't you just trying to learn to paint?" Mi Gongzi inherited his father's learning, and his pen and ink are famous all over the world, and if Brother Yang learns from him, it will be of great benefit to himself. ”
"Qing Niang, I don't have to talk to him, there are Danqing masters in the painting academy, although I am not their top boss, but if I go to them for advice, they can still refuse?"
The Great Song Hanlin Academy is in charge of art and worship, and has departments such as the Painting Academy and the Chess Academy.
Yang Yi is a scholar of Hallym University, but in fact he is the head of the Academy, which is not the same department as the Hallym Academy; However, because the Academy of Sciences in the Tang Dynasty was separated from the Hanlin Academy, it was still customary to call the Academy the Hanlin Academy in the Song Dynasty. And the relationship between the two houses is also relatively close, after all, everyone is from the same source, so Yang Yi said this.
Qing Niang listened to his words, so she didn't persuade him.
After Xiao Ai went out, he soon came back and said that Su Jiagoro asked to see him. Now Yang Yi is not good, Su Xiu is the third son of Su Jing, and he is the fifth oldest in the family. Twenty-two this year, one year older than her sister-in-law Su Qing.
Yang Yi and Thirteen Niang passed by Runzhou last year and visited Su's house, and the old man of the same age was quite speculative, so he didn't think much about it, and asked Xiao Ai to lead people directly to the study.
As a result, when the fifth child of the Su family came in, he was followed by a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old scholar, and the two of them walked all the way, talking and laughing, and when they saw Yang Yi, the fifth child of the Su family put away his smiling face and said, "Xiao Wu visited my uncle and disturbed my uncle." ”
This guy has a bit of a big personality, he said to bother, but his expression didn't disturb others, and he brought the living people in without Yang Yi's consent, and only this guy in the Su family did it.
Yang Yi said with a smile: "Wulang doesn't have to be polite, don't introduce me to your companion." ”
Su Xiu smiled, the folding fan in his hand opened and closed, and said to the scholar next to him in a chic manner: "Brother Yuanhui, it's better for you to come by yourself!" ”
The scholar also held a folding fan in his hand, still painted gold, he was slender, handsome, and graceful between movements, only to see him step forward with a calm demeanor and said: "In Xia Mi Youren, take the liberty to visit, where you disturb, I hope that Master Yang will forgive me." ”
In fact, Yang Yi had already guessed who he was, but he didn't expect him to come with Su Xiu, Yang Yi had just closed the door to him in front of him, and Su Xiu immediately brought people to the ground, and it would be embarrassing to change someone else, but who is Yang Yi?
He only replied lightly: "You're welcome, since you're here, you're a guest, sit down, my body is still a little sleepy, and you can bear with me if I'm rude." ”
The other party introduced himself very casually, and it could even be said that he was a little rude, and Yang Yi naturally wouldn't be too kind to him.
Mi Youren didn't seem to care about this, and after his eyes swept over Qing Niang, he immediately fell on a picture of a lady on the table.
"It's rude!" He bowed his hand to Yang Yi again, and immediately walked quickly to the table, carefully appreciating the picture of the lady, his eyes became brighter and brighter, the thief was bright, and the light was scorching.
He caressed the drawing paper while watching, and exclaimed in his mouth: "I never thought that I would be lucky enough to see Wu Daozi's true works today, fortunately even better!" Luckily! ”
Su Xiu was attracted by his words, and also pounced on it to watch carefully, these two people were fascinated by the picture of the lady on the table, and they seemed to forget that Yang Yi was still standing next to him.
Among the literati, if they encounter a favorite calligraphy and painting, it is not surprising that there is such a performance, Yang Yi didn't care about it, he smiled at Qing Niang, and the two of them stood leisurely by the window and waited.
Nami Youren was amazed and said to Su Xiu: "The lines of this painting are round and dynamic, the thickness is just right, and between the dots and strokes, there is a lack of time, and there is a thoughtful and thoughtful brush." The folds of the clothes written, there is a tendency to flutter, there is a light color in the ink marks, which shows the attitude, and the clothes of the ladies in the painting are flying, like a breeze blowing, it is Wu with the wind! ”
Mi Youren's comments can be said to be the essence of Wu Daozi's figure painting, Wu Daozi is good at painting Taoist figures, but also good at painting birds and beasts, plants and trees, pavilions, ladies, etc.; His figure paintings are usually flowing with clothes and ribbons, such as a breeze blowing, extremely expressive, and later generations will call his painting method "Wu Belt Wind" or "Wu Costume".
This authentic painting of Wu Daozi was snatched by Yang Yi from Su Dongpo, it was really robbed, it was never an exaggeration, although he gave 10,000 yuan, but Lao Su didn't accept this love at all; For the sake of Qingniang, Yang Yi didn't care what Lao Su said, he snatched it back with his youth and strength, and later sent someone to send money to Lao Su, but he was almost thrown out by Lao Su, but fortunately he couldn't throw away so much money.
Yang Yi wants to learn painting, and the main thing is to learn figure painting, copying Wu Daozi is no better, Qing Niang holding an oil-paper umbrella standing on the broken bridge, the same clothes are fluttering, such as a fairy in the wind, if you can get the essence of Wu Daozi in the future, it will be enough.
Things gather like things, the fifth child of the Su family is also a person who loves calligraphy and painting, maybe that's why he became friends with Mi Youren! Mi Youren is Mi Fu's eldest son, Mi Fu is talented, the character is sloppy, and he is addicted to cleanliness. was served by the Tang people, with many strange stones, calligraphy and painting, and was good at identification; Good poetry, calligraphy, good at seal, subordinate, Kai, line, grass and other calligraphy, long in copying the calligraphy of the ancients, to reach the level of chaos.
Mi Youren has been influenced by his father since he was a child, and he is indeed talented in calligraphy and painting, and he became famous at a young age and is highly respected by the world.
Yang Yi has heard of him for a long time, and it is said that Huang Tingjian likes him very much, because he is called Brother Yin, Huang Tingjian jokingly calls him Hu'er, and gives him a poem with an ancient seal: "I have the ancient seal of Yuanhui, and I can't bear to be with Zhulang." Hu'er's pen power can carry the tripod, and teach the word Yuanhui to follow Azhang. ”
Two years ago, Mi Fu knew the Lianshui Army, transferred to Changzhou last year, Mi Youren learned from his father, served on the side, and the Su family knew the fifth is not surprising.
This kind of young and famous character is inevitably a little arrogant, so when he introduced himself to Yang Yi just now, he used the tone of "in Xia Mi Youren", obviously treating Yang Yi as an equal.
In fact, with Yang Yi's current reputation and official character, it is very rude for him to introduce himself like this.
The two of them examined the picture of the lady for nearly two teas, and then they came back to their senses, realized that they had been rude, and hurriedly apologized.
Yang Yi replied indifferently: "You are good calligraphy and painting, it is understandable to have this performance, you probably don't know, I robbed it at the beginning, and I snatched this painting from the hands of Su University, which is much more than you, hahaha!" ”
Mi Youren took a deep look and said with anticipation: "Wu Daozi's authentic works are rare now, can Master Yang lend this painting to the next two days, so that he can copy and appreciate it carefully." ”
"No way!"
"One day!"
"Not for an hour."
