Yun Yan replied that he wanted to make a kesi belt for Zhao Yunchu. Zhao Yunchu also ordered the pattern himself. If he wanted a lotus pattern, firstly, he practiced Zen, and secondly, religious decorations were very popular at this time.
However, Yun Yan returned that he had no talent for painting. Although he knew a thing or two about Kesi skills, he was not familiar with painting. After thinking about it, he still sought out his good cousin.
Yun Yan went back to the Zheng family to find Zheng Ling. It was also a coincidence that he came here. After a long struggle, the unfortunate child finally got the opportunity to negotiate with his grandfather. Although Yun Yanhui came as a friend of Zheng Ling, everyone knew who he was. Therefore, although the men of the same generation were all in the yamen and no one was received, a cousin of Zheng Ling respectfully came to accompany him for tea. .
Zheng Ling's cousin is two years older than Yun Yanhui, and his name is Zheng Mao. Because I don't know how to grasp the distance and distance, I can only keep smirking and drinking tea.
Yun Yanhui was at ease, eating tea with her feet raised, "Why did you, Aon, agree to talk to Xiao Ling?"
Zheng Mao said: "Brother Ling should be crowned in a few days. Brother Ling is the eldest son and eldest grandson..."
Half the words were said, but Yun Yanhui already understood.
The crowning ceremony of the eldest son and eldest grandson does not invite others, but the relatives of the family have to invite them. It is not good to keep people locked up and fool them, otherwise it will be a joke.
On the other side, Zheng Li, Zheng Xun and Zheng Ling's ancestors and grandsons gathered together, but the atmosphere was a little nervous.
Zheng Ling was a little afraid of being beaten, but still stared at his father and Aweng, "I, that's what I think, Aweng, either you kill me or fulfill me."
Zheng Hao had a headache and sat for a long while holding his forehead, "It's really your uncle who brought you so unruly."
Zheng Ling whispered: "What does it have to do with Brother Yan..."
"Isn't he here?" Zheng Hao suddenly waved, "Xun'er, go and call him in."
Zheng Xun was stunned, "Father, he is not from our Zheng family. Wouldn't it be better to call him in for this matter?"
Zheng Li closed his eyes, "Call him in."
Zheng Xun had no choice but to go out and invite Yunyan back.
Yun Yan smiled back and said as he walked with Zheng Xun, "I won't be able to persuade Zheng Ling, you should call me to beat him up to vent his anger." He believed that what he said to Zheng Xun that night was the same as that of the Zheng family. Gotta know.
Zheng Xun was a little speechless, and brought Yun Yan back in. Yun Yan returned the junior salute and said hello, but he did not treat him as a relative.
Zheng Li tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Brother Ling is as stubborn as your mother, I can't persuade him. However, Brother Ling is the eldest grandson. If he wants to enter the Hanlin Painting Academy, no one will say what will happen to the next of kin. Look?"
Zheng Ling was overjoyed and showed some helpless expression again. Yes, sometimes people live not only for themselves, but also for many other things and for the eyes of others. Even if A Weng and Daddy wanted to, they would prevent others from being able to do it.
Zheng Li actually approved Zheng Ling's behavior, but now he probably thinks that Zheng Ling's reasons are not sufficient. He hopes that there is another reason to allow him to make up his mind. Maybe Yun Yan, who has been inciting Zheng Ling, will return to energy. Give this reason.
And from what he's done so far, he's pretty good at it.
Yun Yan didn't reply for two seconds, but she really gave a reason. It was too shameful not to say that you guys were too shameless.
"My mother hasn't done anything else at home in the past few years. She is painting a picture scroll depicting the prosperity of the city. It is the first food festival of Daxiangguo Temple drawn by Ling Geer. Now the original painting is preserved in Daxiangguo Temple. I don't know how many people have praised it, and the Kesi works have also come to an end. I heard that the official family is good at writing and writing in their spare time. The Zhiyuan can send the original and the Kesi book to the official family. I am working part-time, and I will slowly quit my job at Honglu Temple in the future. In this way, Brother Ling is not a painter, but a painter of the Son of Heaven, what else can others say?"
Speaking of which, although several emperors of the Song Dynasty loved the art of calligraphy and painting, it seems that the painters of the Hanlin Painting Academy only rose in status during the period of Emperor Huizong.
Both carry the word "Hanlin", but the status of the Hanlin Academy and the Hanlin Academy can be said to be very different. The Hanlin Painting Academy is only a part of the Hanlin Academy, and there are other units of various technicians, including qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, scripture, astronomy, etc., exclusively for the needs of the royal family and the court.
However, nowadays, not all people in art academies are not taken seriously. What people look down on is actually "painters", who are among the craftsmen. Most of the positions in the Hanlin Painting Academy did not even have official positions, and they belonged to people other than the first-rank to the ninth-rank, and they could even be regarded as officials.
And if you become a painter, you are at the level of an artist. This imperial imperial edict is obviously a watershed. Not only those who can be employed as officials, but on top of that, there is also Gao Wenjin, who was often ranked around the official family during the Taizong period, and so on. He has already become a favorite.
So, let’s say that again, three hundred and sixty lines, every line is a champion, and you have to work hard wherever you go, and it’s up to you to choose.
Yun Yan looked back at Zheng Li and fell into deep thought, and said, "Brother Ling's painting skills are definitely not wrong. This painting has been hung in Daxiangguo Temple for several years, and it is famous, so you don't have to worry about not getting into the eyes of officials— As long as the official aesthetic is fine."
Zheng Hao really wasn't worried about Zheng Ling's painters, he actually knew it in his heart.
Not to mention, there is another very important element that they all know very well, and that is Zheng Ping's Kesi works. Such a Kesi theme is absolutely unique. Coupled with Zheng Ping's superb skills, it took several years to complete it.
Using such an expensive medium to express Zheng Ling's painting skills can make Renzong feel more worthwhile.
In addition to Renzong's generosity, Zheng Li, the old minister, went to hint, without thinking about it, this good old man will definitely push the boat along the way.
This kind of utilitarian and hacking method is usually only used by those clans who eat and wait to die. Zheng Li really doesn't even think about it.
But at this time, Zheng Li was moved, and he could have both official positions. If he took this as a great opportunity and quietly transferred to the art academy, he would be truly noble and worthy of his family tradition, and he would not be able to help others talk about it.
Zheng Ling saw that Zheng Li was moving, and kowtowed down, "I beg A Weng to do it!"
Zheng Li closed his eyes, "Forget it..."
…
Half a month later, Zheng Ling crowned the temple at home, and the elders of his own family were the guest of honor, and he got the word Feibo. And because the paintings and kesi books were presented to the imperial court, they were collected by the officials and kept in private collections. Zheng Ling has fulfilled his long-cherished wish and is proud of the spring breeze.
There are many ways to enter the Hanlin Painting Academy, the most common is the examination, which is usually the way of entry for commoner painters. There are also hereditary, recommended and supplementary admissions. Needless to say, hereditary is the inheritance between master and apprentice, father and son.
The recommendation is that a painter with superb painting skills or a famous painter is recommended by the officials to enter the painting academy. Many folk artists are excavated in this way, not to mention, everyone can enthusiastically look for talents for the official family.
During Taizong's time, there was a street medicine seller who often drew small paintings on the paper wrapped with medicine, ranging from ghosts and animals to animals, each of which was interesting. Later, it was discovered by an official on the street, and recommended to Taizong. He was greatly appreciated, and he directly awarded the imperial imperial edict.
As for the supplementary admission, it is somewhat similar to the recommendation, but it is not recommended by the official, but is learned from the official's family through other channels, and then enters the picture academy. It can be said that compared with the supplementary entry, it is different from the active and passive nature of the official family in it.
Zheng Ling's seal is somewhere between supplementary and recommended.
For a while, the Zheng family's relatives and friends were only proud of him, and they praised him, after all, this represented the vision of the official family.
Kesi is only said to be made by the daughters of the Zheng family. Everyone knows that the Zheng family has this craftsmanship, and they have been rewarded generously. Therefore, the former Zheng family also helped Yun Yanhui, plus it was to help Zheng Ling, so here is an old affair between Zheng Ping and her mother's family.
When Zheng Ling was crowned, Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu also attended the crowd as friends.
Zhao Yunchu put on the lotus-patterned kesi belt that Yun Yanhui made for him in a hurry.
Yun Yanhui felt that it was really embarrassing to bring it to Zheng's house, and it was a very classy axe... I just hope that Zhao Yunchu would not tell others that he came out of it.
When Zheng Ling was crowned, Zhao Yunchu was watching, and then whispered back to Yun Yan: "Brother Yan, when you are crowned, it would be nice if I could be the official guest."
Yun Yan replied, "You are so beautiful."
Not to mention whether his family would be like the Zheng family, and what kind of crown ceremony would be held, after all, even many big families these days simply held the crown ceremony. This Zhengbin has to be well-respected, where is Zhao Yunchu so well-respected? Take away the virtue and hope, he is really tall! Really heavy! The last time I was drunk, I almost crushed him to death!
This Zhengbin also has to make a name for the crowned person. God knows what kind of character Zhao Yunchu can make.
Zhao Yunchu hummed: "Then brother Yan can be my guest..."
A picture also appeared in his mind. If it was in front of everyone, let everyone witness that Yan Ge'er held his hair and gave him a nickname... ah no, the word...
Zhao Yunchu thought this was basically Hu Si's imagination. Yun Yan rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, if I can be the guest of honor at your crown ceremony, I will definitely give you a name called Tiantian."
Zhao Yunchu: "..."
