Last time, it was said that Yang Liu and Long Yu were finally unwilling to play their respective roles separately, and flew up to the clouds on a dark and windy night for a deep communication. Eventually, the two came to an agreement and decided to take this role-playing game to the end.

"One yuan is renewed, and everything is renewed!" Watching his son's pen walk on the red rice paper, Yang Laocheng praised with satisfaction, "Taizhen, your calligraphy can be described as a unique style, and it is not in vain for your father's painstaking teaching!" ”

Yang Liu's calligraphy was taught by his father since he was a child, and he tended to be in European regular script. Later, after Xiuzhen, he was quite influenced by the style of the other world that was free to accept and release as he wanted, and gradually formed a set of his own original fonts, which can be described as eclectic and eclectic. If this font still can't be recognized by Prime Minister Yang, I'm afraid that no matter how hard you work in the future, it will be useless.

The customs and habits of this world are similar to those of the Tang Dynasty on the earth, and the Spring Festival couplets have basically not become popular. So when a pair of spring couplets with red and black characters were pasted on the gate of Yang's mansion, it immediately attracted the onlookers of passers-by.

"The battle is neat, and the rhyme is even, this is the best product in the couplet!" A reader shook his head and commented.

"Good words, better words! Powerful and powerful, and there is an indescribable aura, it is really a masterpiece of the world! Another reader shook his head and commented.

A passer-by next to him couldn't help but ask, "This gentleman, can you tell me how much this character is worth?" Is it worth a tael of silver? ”

"Huh-" the scholar laughed dumbly, "a tael of silver? You can't even afford this piece of red paper for a tael of silver. You have to know that this is a fine rice paper, and it is also dyed a precious red. Judging from this font, this couplet must have been written by Yang Taizhen and Yang Liugongzi. Everyone knows that Yang Liugongzi is known for his poetry and books. This couplet, both in terms of content, font, and even on this paper, is a rare collector's item. If I could buy this couplet for a hundred taels of silver, I would rather pawn my wife out and buy this couplet! ”

"Is it really worth that much?" Passerby A's eyes were wide open, his fingers trembled, and his voice trembled.

"This benevolent brother is willing to sell his wife to buy this couplet, do you think it is worth it?" Another reader couldn't help but interject.

"How did I hear that his wife is a, and she is very jealous, and she is estimated to be worth less than a hundred taels of silver?" An insider broke the news.

"I see. So, sir, can you tell me how much this couplet is worth? Let's open our eyes! Passerby A asked impatiently.

"If only I had a fortune. I'm willing to pay a tenth of this couplet..."

As a result, early the next morning. When a subordinate of the Yang Mansion opened the side door and was about to clear the snow in front of the gate, he suddenly found that the Spring Festival couplets pasted on the gate were missing.

"The wind and rain are smooth, the country and the people are safe" In desperation, Yang Liu had no choice but to write another pair of Spring Festival couplets and paste them on the gate.

"Take a look, take a look. Yang Liu Gongzi's ink treasure is posted again. If you go late, you won't be able to occupy a good position. A neighbor who lives nearby loudly announced that he had taken his place on the couch.

"I heard the Spring Festival couplets again. You have to get a sneak peek! I just don't know what was written this time? "Those who have good deeds follow.

"Have you heard of it all? Last night, a black-clothed masked thief sent Yang Liugongzi's ink treasure to the pawnshop and exchanged it for fifty taels of silver. Yang Liugongzi's words are really valuable! "Those who have good deeds preach.

So, that night, the Spring Festival couplets of Yangliu disappeared again.

According to the habits of the earth. The Spring Festival is generally on the afternoon of the Chinese New Year's Eve. However, because the world has not developed the habit of pasting Spring Festival couplets, the initiator Yang Liu can naturally do whatever he wants, and pasted the Spring Festival couplets on the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion more than ten days in advance.

With the patronage of thieves for several days, the Yangfu Spring Festival couplets incident gradually spread in Chang'an City, and slowly fermented, causing many people to follow suit. After all, compared to writing poetry, the creation of Spring Festival couplets is still relatively easy, and can show their own calligraphy, and readers who are quite confident in their own style and calligraphy simply can't resist this temptation.

As for those high-ranking families with similar status to the Yang Mansion, after a few days of waiting, they were finally unwilling, and posted carefully concocted Spring Festival couplets.

This one reads "Six animals are prosperous, and five grains are abundant". After the family was unwilling, he posted "The days increase the years, the people increase the longevity, and the spring is full of blessings". Look, you're only four words, and I'm seven words, and each sentence is three words more than yours!

"Spring into the hall to add joy, flowers fly jade has a fragrance."

"The three yangs rise from the earth, and the five blessings come from the sky."

"The rising sun is early, and the spring breeze is the first."

"The four seasons of spring in heaven are the first, and the five blessings and longevity in the world are the first."

"Mei Chuanchun letter is early, and the bamboo report is safe."

For a time, the trend of sticking Spring Festival couplets swept the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. After all, this way of celebrating the Spring Festival is both festive and economical, and even some poor families have saved a few copper plates from between their teeth to buy a piece of red paper, and then begged some down-and-out scholars to write a popular Spring Festival couplet for their own people. As for the content of the Spring Festival couplets, although each high-ranking family has their own latest creations, Yang Liugongzi's Spring Festival couplets still occupy the first place in the imitation list. If this is placed on the contemporary earth, it can be said that there are many fans!

Because there are so many people who buy red paper, that the inventory of many stores is sold out of stock, which is really expensive Chang'an paper! And because many ordinary people are neither literate nor good at calligraphy, they often pay some scholars to write Spring Festival couplets for their own families, which creates an excellent financial path for these scholars and makes them happily spend a fat year.

On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Imperial Gardens of the Imperial Palace Ouchi were bustling with young young ladies from various families, organized by literary seniors and education officials, to celebrate the arrival of the New Year by chanting poems on the spot. This is the so-called Yuanchun Poetry Society.

"Yang Taizhen, what a good means! Before the Yuanchun Poetry Meeting began, you used the Spring Festival couplets to trigger a craze for the whole Chang'an City to follow suit. Now the authenticity of your Spring Festival couplets is said to have risen to 300 taels of silver, so that your descendants have to wait day and night in front of the gate in case your ink treasure disappears again. It is really a great wonder of Chang'an City! As soon as he sat down on the Hu bed, Li Chenggong, who was sitting beside him, commented in a weird manner.

For this Yang Liugongzi's habitual messing with flowers and grass, Li Chenggong can be said to have a deep resentment, after all, his sister is still suffering from unrequited love!

"Brother Zhiyuan is too famous! The reason why the younger brother posted the Spring Festival couplets on the gate is to celebrate the Spring Festival and look forward to the smooth weather next year. The second thing is that because the younger brother's calligraphy has occasionally made breakthroughs recently, he uses this method to show one or two when the skill is unbearable. It made Brother Zhiyuan smile..."(To be continued.) )
