Living leisurely in Tang Dynasty

Chapter 127

His Majesty Li Er scolded people in a roundabout way. In order to refute, Li Yuanying read it twice. The more he read, the angrier he became, and he wrote a reply letter on the spot. First of all, I will say that the internship has been decided tomorrow morning. If there is anything to say goodbye to, it's not like I won't go back!

Then Li Yuanying began to talk about his creative philosophy, saying that since it is to commend the hero, how can the portrait not show the meritorious process of the hero, how can this make others feel convinced at a glance, and feel that there would be no new Tang Dynasty without them? Therefore, he firmly believes that he is not wrong, if you don’t believe me, brother, call other people to ask if this is the case!

Anyway, Old Li agrees very much!

His Majesty Li Er can blatantly scold Li Yuanying, but Li Yuanying can't blatantly scold him back. He can only say implicitly, Brother Huang, have you not slept well recently, have you lost your sleep, are in a daze, have a bad temper, and want to scold others when you see the sky? Sleep well, government affairs are endless, and there will be another after one task is over. We must take good care of our bodies and live to be a hundred years old.

Of course, Li Yuanying admitted this implicit reply. After reading it, Chengyang and the others thought it was better not to reply directly. Li Yuanying spoke convincingly: "Don't be afraid, I am concerned about the body of the emperor! He scolded me so much, but I still care about him so much, I call it revenge with virtue!"

The others felt that they couldn't be persuaded anymore, so they stopped, and let Li Yuanying hand over the letter to the guard in charge of delivering the letter.

At dawn the next day, when the gates of the city opened, the imperial guards rushed back to Chang'an without stopping. So His Majesty Li Er had just left the court when he saw Li Yuanying's reply. His Majesty Li Er reprimanded Li Yuanying in the letter yesterday, and he felt a lot more relaxed. When he heard that Li Yuanying had replied to the letter, he asked someone to send it to have a look.

After reading the letter, His Majesty Li Er's face turned dark. This kid is trying to say that his brain is not working!

If His Majesty Li Er is not happy, others should not be happy either. He called Yan Liben and asked Yan Liben to take a look at the portraits of the twenty-four heroic officials gathered yesterday, and come back to talk about his impressions after reading them.

Yan Liben was injured on duty, but it wasn't serious, he recovered after a few days of recuperation. However, since His Majesty Li Er had asked Li Yuanying to paint, Yan Liben was also happy to get rid of this errand, and let it go. Hearing His Majesty Li Er said that the portraits were complete, but his complexion was not very good, Yan Liben's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly followed others to see the portraits.

After reading it, Yan Liben was also silent.

If Li Yuanying drew the same paintings in a serious manner, then the painters must be superior and superior, and anyone can tell who is superior and who is inferior at a glance. However, Li Yuanying's painting is full of aura, even if his skill is a little weak, others will be attracted by it at first glance.

I have to say that painting and calligraphy is something that is rewarded by God. If you have three points of talent, you can draw a passable painting even if you practice hard for seven points; Others go!

Yan Liben thought that his talent was not bad, otherwise His Majesty Li Er would not ask him to be a painter for all the big and small things. But Li Yuanying's ability to grasp the charm is really enviable. Whether it is a human or a horse, he can find out the feeling very accurately. If he didn't know that Li Yuanying was not born at Li Jing's age, Yan Liben would have thought that Li Yuanying had seen such a thing with his own eyes. Li Jing!

Yan Liben sighed, turned back to see His Majesty Li Er, and said, "His Royal Highness Teng captured the charm very well, and the paintings are more vivid. I am ashamed of myself. Your Majesty asks His Royal Highness Teng to repaint the remaining twenty-three paintings as well." .”

His Majesty Li Er wanted to torment Li Yuanying, but didn't Li Yuanying go to Hu County? Li Yuanying even set up the house, obviously not staying for a day or two. Li Chunfeng's side has already considered a good day to hang portraits, so why should we wait for Li Yuanying's painting? Besides, Li Yuanying has never met Du Ruhui, Yin Kaishan and the others. Is it because Li Yuanying was asked to paint for him to be fooled

His Majesty Li Er said: "Yuanying has gone to Hu County, and he will not be able to return in about two or three months. The portrait of this matter is still up to you, Yan Qing." Although His Majesty Li Er did not say that Yan Liben repainted For twenty-three pieces, Yan Liben was still asked to repaint Li Jing, but he told Yan Liben the "creative concept" that Li Yuanying wrote eloquently, and asked Yan Liben to follow this line of thought and try to reflect why they were selected into Lingyan Pavilion.

No matter how stupid Yan Liben was, he understood that His Majesty Li Er wanted to draw according to this standard, and was not satisfied with the existing twenty-three portraits. In the end, he had to follow Li Yuanying's portrait of a falcon and a horse!

Yan Li was about to vomit blood.

You must know that for the original twenty-three pictures of heroic officials, he wasted several months of effort. Not only did he have to go to the mansions of the living heroes every day to draw in front of the living people, but he also had to go to the mansions of the deceased heroic officials to listen to their family members’ suggestions. Recalling the old man with tears. Is it easy to draw to their satisfaction

After all, everyone was satisfied. As soon as Li Yuanying's painting of Li Jing was posted, everyone must have another idea! At least, His Majesty Li Er implicitly stated that Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji saw the portrait yesterday, and felt that they had to change it, and that they would feel uncomfortable and unhappy if they didn't.

Well, the top three figures in Datang Ding Niu Ding Niu can change their opinions, can they not change

Yan Liben retreated with a sad face.

When Yan Liben went back to work, he met Yan Lide, who had just been reinstated as an official. Seeing Yan Liben's face turned bitter, Yan Lide couldn't help but asked with concern: "What's the matter? Why is the saint looking for you?"

As soon as this was mentioned, Yan Liben's expression became even more bitter. He dragged Yan Lide into the room and sat down, and complained to his brother: Originally, he was just angry because Li Jing let the leopard rush at him, so he quit. Unexpectedly, after Li Yuanying went to paint him a portrait, His Majesty Li Er and Changsun Wuji were not satisfied with the original twenty-three portraits!

Yan Liben omitted the part where he cheated Li Yuanying, but Yan Lide was keen to find something wrong: "Why did the saint let King Teng paint?" He got along well with Li Yuanying and knew that Li Yuanying was good at painting, but others didn't know Ah, in the eyes of many people, Li Yuanying is still a playful, ignorant little prince. No one knows that he is quite talented in painting!

Yan Liben saw that he couldn't hide it, so he had to add that he was deceived by lard and His Majesty Li Er suggested that Li Yuanying should paint a portrait of Li Jing.

After hearing this, Yan Lide didn't sympathize with Yan Liben's pitiful experience at all, and laughed and said, "Don't you deserve it?" Speaking of this, Yan Lide was about to mention his younger brother, "I didn't blame you, you did it You shouldn't. Even if you know that King Teng and Duke Wei have a good relationship, you can't go to the saint and say, after all, one of them is a vassal king, and the other is a general who once held a heavy army. If you say they have a good relationship, it's good that the saint is not suspicious. If the sage becomes suspicious, he will be in big trouble."

Yan Liben was at a loss for words for a moment, and after a while he found words to retort: "Anyway, one of them is at odds with your son-in-law, and the other is at odds with your in-laws. Isn't it just right that they are in big trouble?"

Yan Liben's discord was actually tactful. Li Yuanying and Li Tai had a big feud, mainly because Li Yuanying smashed Li Tai's dream of competing for the crown prince with a hammer. Li Tai must have the heart to kill him! Yan Lide's daughter and his niece are Li Tai's concubine, Li Tai's two children are both Yan Lide's grandsons, isn't this a big grudge

As for the enemies on the other side, it was Li Jing and Tang Jian. Another daughter of Yan Lide married Tang Jian's son, and Tang Jian and Li Jing had another unresolved grievance. Simply put, Li Jing didn't care about Tang, who was serving as an envoy to the Turks, in order to kill the Turks. That's it.

So no matter how you say it, it's normal for him to bully Li Yuanying and Li Jing.

Yan Lide was silent for a moment, and did not mention the unbelievable fact that he and Li Yuanying had a good relationship, but only said: "But have you tricked him?" His Majesty Li Er didn't see any suspicion of Li Yuanying, on the contrary, Yan Liben wanted to Twenty-three portraits are all reworked! Yan Lide said, "When King Wei left Beijing, I went to see him off. He said something to me. I didn't believe it at the time, but now I believe it a little bit."

Yan Liben wondered, "What are you talking about?"

Yan Lide said: "He said that King Teng is very evil, but anyone who wants to harm him will not only fail, but will harm himself in turn."

Li Tai had a lot of experience in this matter, every time he went to Li Er Majesty to sue Li Yuanying, in the end, he was helping Li Yuanying increase his presence and favorability. Later, he wanted to harm Li Yuanying, but he did not harm the achievements, and he was driven to the fiefdom in embarrassment.

Li Tai still attaches great importance to his eldest son and the child in Yan's womb, so when Yan Lide came to see him off, he said that he had entrusted people to reinstate Yan Lide, and asked Yan Lide to ask his mother-in-law to visit Yan more often. Let Yan's husband not be around and have no support from her natal family. When parting, Li Taicai told Yan Lide what he kept in his heart, and asked Yan Lide to pay attention, Li Yuanying is too wicked!

Yan Liben was completely silent after hearing what his brother relayed.

It seems that you really have to pay attention in the future, and you can no longer dig holes and jump by yourself. This is the painful experience summed up by King Wei!

The evil Li Yuanying officially started his internship career at this time. Because of Xu Jingzong's instruction, everyone in the government office was very polite to him. It was summer, the spring plowing had passed, and the year-end assessment was not yet at the end of the year. The county government was actually quite idle, and there was nothing to do for them.

Li Yuanying couldn't stay idle, so he ran to Xu Jingzong to ask for something to do. Since Xu Jingzong is an old man in the officialdom, he is naturally flexible in his mind. He didn't want to let Li Yuanying touch the account and the like. .

Of course, he was worried about letting Li Yuanying and the others run around blindly, so he ordered a group of clever government officials to escort them, saying that this was a common practice in conducting censuses, mainly because they were afraid that some people would be unreasonable and unwilling to cooperate. Seeing Li Yuanying listening carefully, Xu Jingzong introduced to Li Yuanying the things to be recorded: "First of all, we need to record 'five nine', that is, each family is full of nineteen, forty-nine, fifty-nine, seventy-nine, eighty-nine people."

Li Yuanying asked: "Why?"

Xu Jingzong introduced to him that he can serve in the military at the age of nineteen. Every year he has to spare time to do voluntary labor for the county. ;Stay at home for the elderly; after fifty-nine years old, you don't have to go out to work, and you can come to the county to have a drink at the end of each year, and the other young people stand by and wait on them to show respect for the elderly; , Eighty-nine, those are all old birthday stars. The more old birthday stars, the more it reflects the prosperity of the country and the people's good customs. Therefore, the county must give special treatment. Those who are officials in the county even have to visit their homes in person.

Li Yuanying understood, so there are these ways! He continued to ask Xu Jingzong what else to pay attention to, and after writing them down one by one, he patted his chest and promised: "No problem, leave these to us, and we will figure it out!"

Xu Jingzong said: "There is no rush, just take your time, and you will only need to make a record at the end of the year."

Li Yuanying was full of energy, went back and explained to Di Renjie and the others what kind of work they were looking for, and immediately made preparations: first go to see how the previous brochures were made, and then ask the person in charge how to go about it and how to do it is more suitable , and finally work together to make a specific action plan.

Li Yuanying was busy here, but Xu Jingzong's head book was praising Jingzong's brilliance: "It's better for the county lord to find a way. In this way, these nobles can be regarded as having a good time."

Xu Jingzong stroked his beard and nodded. He came up with this errand, in fact, to create opportunities for Li Yuanying and the others to go out and play in the mountains, so that they don't have to worry about Li Yuanying messing around in the county government, but also allow Li Yuanying to come back happily!

The author has something to say:

Datang villain: This guy is really wicked!

Great Song Admonisher: That Wang Xiaoyu is really an evil thing!

Little Prince: What? What are you talking about
