Chapter 299: What is Songming?
Who is Dean Gao?
Originally, in today's great Chu, the academic reputation and conduct are counted in all aspects, and the person who can barely be compared with Dean Gao is also a Mr. Yuming.
After Mr. Yuming's death, Dean Gao's prestige was unique, otherwise, Prince Yu would not have desperately hoped that the rebellious essay would be written by Dean Gao himself.
Fortunately, it was Li Qi's plan to make Prince Yu's plan come to naught, and the essay was already known to everyone, and it didn't make much sense for Dean Gao to write another one.
Instead of continuing to force Dean Gao to do something, it is better to be more generous, Prince Yu is not without other considerations, he thinks that if he can really take the capital and ascend the throne as emperor, he will invite Dean Gao to the capital, with Dean Gao's status in the hearts of the literati, Dean Gao will shout, there will be countless people to serve the new emperor.
But Prince Yu was not at ease, so he never gave up looking for Gao Xining during this time, and only by holding Gao Xining in his hands would Dean Gao really grasp it in his hands.
Prince Yu had asked countless times, but Dean Gao only said that Gao Xining had gone to live with a relative, and that relative was far away in Yanzhou.
Prince Yu actually believes a little that before the war, sending his loved ones out of Jizhou is the choice of many people, not only Dean Gao is doing this, but also those dignitaries and nobles in the city are doing this.
They had to stand on Prince Yu's side, but they also had to make other considerations, and they couldn't gamble the lives of the whole family.
Dean Gao knew that Gao Xining lived safely in the carriage and horse shop, so he lived a fairly down-to-earth life during this time, thinking about it, if there is anyone in this Jizhou city who will fight with his life to protect Gao Xining, it can only be Li Qi.
So Dean Gao is still a little contradictory, he has to rely on Li Qi to protect his granddaughter, but he does feel that Li Qi is not worthy of his granddaughter, of course he is not targeting Li Qi, he feels that no one is worthy of his granddaughter, not the prince.
At this moment, March River Tower.
Dean Gao carefully looked at the Ling Gao sticker, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this character was Mr. Songming's genuine handwriting, and as for the paper, it didn't seem to be a problem.
"I'm not very sure of what I eat."
Dean Gao looked at Prince Yu and said: "This word, it should be genuine, Mr. Songming's words are actually the most free and easy, unrestrained, the more in his old age, the more obvious this kind of free and easy, as if writing has reached the realm of no delusion and no self." ”
Hearing Dean Gao's words, Xiahou Zhuo on the second floor asked Li Qi: "What Dean Gao meant, is it the meaning you just said in that foul language?" ”
Li Qi asked, "Which foul word?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo didn't want to repeat it, so he asked in a different way: "What I mean, Dean Gao said that Mr. Songming's words are free and easy, is it just written casually?" For example, when he was young, he wrote and painted with a good attitude and was very serious, but when he was old, he came easily. ”
Li Qi nodded: "It makes sense to say that." ”
Xiahou Zhuo said to himself in a very light voice: "It turns out that it is really XJB to write to have the charm of Mr. Songming......"
Li Qi only listened to the voice below, and didn't hear what Xiahou Zhuo said clearly, so he asked casually: "What did you say?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo said: "It's really chivalrous, I mean Mr. Songming can be described as a chivalrous man among literati, a chivalrous man." ”
Li sighed and continued to listen to Dean Gao.
Dean Gao said: "The only possibility now is that the words are Mr. Songming's authentic handwriting, but the paper is new. ”
He looked up at the man standing on the second floor, who was slender and straight, wearing a long gown, but he couldn't see his face with a veil.
Judging from this person's body and bearing, he should be a well-educated person, and there is a saying that he has poetry and books in his belly.
Li Qi knew Dean Gao at this time
Looking at him in this way, I can roughly understand why Dean Gao also said that the word is genuine, but it is nothing more than a blind word......
"This little friend."
Dean Gao said, "Can you explain?" ”
Li Qi looked back at Xiahou Zhuo for help, but Xiahou Zhuo was not at the door, so the people in the hall on the first floor could not see him, but could only see Li Qi alone.
Xiahou Zhuo smiled in the private room and said: "Lying is what you are good at, you see what I do, is it possible that I can teach you something?" How big and how to say, I can see it, the group of people below, the bigger you say, the more they believe it, and the smaller you say, the more suspicious they are. ”
Li Qi thought about it, what does big mean?
After a while, he let out a long breath and said a few words in a tone of concern for the country and the people.
"The word, it is indeed Mr. Songming's authentic handwriting, the reason why I say it is fake is that I think Mr. Songming's posthumous work should not be treated with this kind of gold and silver transaction, no matter how high the price is, it is not worthy of Mr. Songming."
When they heard these words, they all fell silent, for they had become louder in style.
But Li Qi still felt that it was not big enough.
So he continued: "The original idea that I wanted to auction Mr. Songming's seal was to donate all the proceeds of this auction seal to His Royal Highness King Yu. ”
Xiahou Zhuo covered his face.
Downstairs his dad laughed.
Li Qi continued: "Now this Great Chu is full of devastation, you should all know it, but we don't want to say more, but we have always been Chu people, and Chu people have the heart to serve the country and save the country, today, who can save Great Chu?" ”
He looked at Prince Yu and said, "Only His Royal Highness King Yu!" ”
The smile on Prince Yu's face, he couldn't restrain it even if he wanted to.
Cui Tai standing on the high platform is such a smart person, and immediately began to applaud, his applause, all the people in the river building in the full March followed the applause, whether it was sincere or sincere, the applause was right.
Li Qi said: "Besides, why do I want to say that Mr. Songming's words are fake, because I really don't want to desecrate Mr. Songming's reputation and say that it is fake, and the world will think that I am not exchanging Mr. Songming's posthumous work for money, even if it is fake, it can only be sold for two hundred taels of silver." ”
Li Qi said: "I am not rich, all the net worth, are used to collect these words and that seal, the seal income, I will be dedicated to His Royal Highness King Yu, used as a military fund to rebel against the army, and the word income is what I need for life, I don't hide it, now Jizhou rice is expensive, I can't afford to buy much rice." ”
Xiahou Zhuo said to himself: "You can't afford to buy tens of thousands of catties of rice." ”
Li Qi glanced back at Xiahou Zhuo, and Xiahou Zhuo immediately picked his thumb: "Big, it's really big!" ”
Li Qi turned his head, clenched his fists and said: "So I just want to ask you, this word, just buy it as a fake, don't say that it is the real work of Mr. Songming, then I'm sorry for Mr. Songming's Gaojie." ”
Prince Yu applauded, and his palms turned red.
He looked at Li Qi and said, "Mr. Gaoyi, Mr. Gaoyi!" ”
Li Qi sighed: "Thank you for the prince's praise, but I have no shame to stay here at this time, I feel ashamed of Mr. Songming, I will go first, and I will get the copy, and I will bother Mr. Cui to hand it over to my friend to bring back." ”
After speaking, Li Qi pretended to be very sad and angry, and turned around and entered the box.
Xiahou Zhuo said: "What kind of nerves are you, the purpose of the auction seal is not to give it to my father, now you are good, give it to him directly." ”
Li Qi sighed: "Do you think I can take it?" Your father came too quickly, saying that your father and your father will arrive, and there is no room for me at all, even if I sell it hard, if your father asks me if I am willing to serve the country, what will I say? ”
He looked at Xiahou Zhuo and asked, "Can your father do this?" ”
Xiahou thought for a while and nodded: "He can." ”
Li Qi said: "Besides, I have a clever plan to get the seal back." ”
Xiahou Zhuo asked, "What's the plan?" ”
Li Qi said: "Look at it for a while, no matter who wins the seal in the end, I have set the tone so high, the pattern is so big, the person who buys the seal will also dedicate the seal to your father, this big gift, your father took it, and the person who gave the gift will also have something in return, do you say that a seal is useful, or is the benefit given by your father useful?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo thought carefully for a moment and asked, "What's that trick?" ”
Li Qi said seriously: "Someone has dedicated it to your father, you go back and ask him, if he doesn't give it to you, you will insist on it, and you will ......give it to me after you come over."
Xiahou Zhuo's eyes narrowed: "Oh......"
Li Qi: "Isn't it wonderful?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo raised a foot and kicked Li Qi's buttocks.
Li Qi really can't stay in the March Jianglou for long, it is really not good-looking if he shows the stuffing, although Prince Yu must guess that it is him, but those people below don't know, this is enough.
Li Qi's approach satisfied Prince Yu, those calligraphy will really be auctioned for a very low price? Even if Li Qi doesn't matter, Prince Yu also has a relationship, this is a matter of favor, he dedicated the proceeds of the seal auction to Prince Yu, and Prince Yu will naturally let those words sell for a good price.
If you are willing to give, you will not have anything without giving up.
So when Li Qi went out of the back door, the only regret in his heart was that he was sorry for Mr. Yuming, which was a parting gift from Mr. Yuming, but many things could not be done exactly according to his heart.
At the very least, the current Li Qi has not yet influenced the strength of Jizhou.
After Li Qi came out of the back door and got into the carriage, Yu Jiuling sat in the carriage and asked, "How is it?" How much can it sell? ”
Li Qi said: "It's hard to say, we have to go first, Prince Yu has arrived, and it will be a little embarrassing if he recognizes me." ”
Yu Jiuling said: "Even if he can't recognize him, he knows it's you." ”
Li Qi said: "I'm afraid that Dean Gao will recognize it, and I'm embarrassed." ”
At the same time, in the north, Yunyin Mountain.
A procession that had made the long journey came to a halt in the valley, and the leader of the group looked around, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt, as if he were very impressed, but for a moment he could not remember when he had come, but he felt that he had left something in the area.
He sat on the back of the boar queen, who weighed a thousand pounds, and thought for a while, but he still couldn't remember what he had left.
So he sat cross-legged on the back of the boar queen, raised his hands, and drew circles on the top of his head with his two index fingers.
There are words in the mouth...... Gurgle, cluck, cluck....... Giggle.
A moment later, as if a dinging sound sounded in his head, he remembered.
He once left a female disciple here.
Thinking of this, the pig rider immediately turned the pig's head, thinking in his heart that it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and it was better to run as long as he could.
I treated you as an apprentice back then, and you want to sleep with me...... You've got your way!
At this moment, a group of white-clothed women fell lightly from the trees on both sides, their long swords pointed at the pig rider.
When the pig rider saw these women of various ages, the eldest one should be thirty or forty years old, and the younger one was sixteen or seventeen years old, he could not help but fall into deep thought.
This...... My genes shouldn't be so single, how can they all be girls, alas...... Female disciples are trouble, and from then on, he decided not to accept female disciples.
After escaping from this, he traveled all the way to the capital of Great Chu, and vaguely remembered that he met a particularly smart child, so he took him as an apprentice, and he said that if he hadn't met him, the child would have been a coward.
