Chapter 49: Summoning Ouyang into the East Palace

The next step may be to do business about wine, and the name of Chang'an Ice Food is not suitable at all.

In addition, there was a good news from Zou Fengchi, through his Thousand Days Drunk, Zou Fengchi got through the officials at various points, and spent some money to buy a building next to Chang'an Ice Food, which is now under renovation, and it won't take long to sell Thousand Days Drunk.

If you have a building as a store, then a good name is indispensable.

A good name is naturally indispensable to a plaque written by a famous artist.

With the majestic calligraphy, it can complement the faΓ§ade, and this word is still a living billboard, making business better.

So Li Chengqian asked Feng Xiaoyu to check the famous calligraphers near Chang'an City.

Until Feng Xiaoyue reminded: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, a few days ago, there was not an official who held a famous calligraphy and painting in his hand, and then you were blown out." ”

"You mean...... Ouyang inquiry? ”

Li Chengqian thought of Ouyang Xun.

He was a bachelor of Hongbunkan, an official position in feudal society in charge of books and teaching students.

Speaking of Ouyang Xun, he was a famous calligrapher and official in the Tang Dynasty, and one of the four masters of regular script.

His representative works are the regular script "Huadu Siyi Zen Master Relic Pagoda Inscription", "Yu Gonggong Wen Yanbo Tablet" and "Huangfu Birthday Tablet", known as "the first regular script of the Tang Dynasty".

Those who dare to be called the first must be the existence of the strong.

"It's him, Ouyang Xun is a bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion at this time. If it is summoned, it will be very easy in terms of the status of the East Palace. As for the reason, on the grounds of asking literary questions, he categorically would not refuse! ”

"Oh? So what hobbies does Ouyang Xun have? ”

Li Chengqian asked.

"This man is a good drinker!"

Based on this alone, Li Chengqian has a way to ask Ouyang Xun to write a painting for himself that others can't ask for!

"Okay, let him enter the East Palace!"

"Yes!"

So Li Chengqian summoned Ouyang Xun into the East Palace to meet him face-to-face.

Ouyang Xun was also very puzzled, why did the prince summon him to the East Palace today?

You must know that he has no special intersection with the crown prince.

When he arrived outside the East Palace, there were some officials wandering there outside the East Palace.

When these officials found out about Ouyang Xun's existence, they all felt curious, and at the same time, they had a look of surprise on their faces.

You must know that Ouyang Xun, as the most famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, can get a piece of his calligraphy, it will be a very glorious thing.

People even thought that Ouyang Xun also came for wine.

Ouyang asked Gao coldly, ignored the many officials, and went directly to the gate of the East Palace.

Said to the little yellow door at the door: "Ouyang asks to see, and I hope to report!" ”

As soon as Xiao Huangmen saw that it was Ouyang Xun, he said: "Master Ouyang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an explanation, if he sees you, he will let you enter the palace directly!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar, and it turned out that the prince took the initiative to ask Ouyang to come.

This is the difference between people.

So people realized that it must be the prince who asked Ouyang Xun!

"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!"

Ouyang Xun walked into the East Palace.

At this time, someone asked, "We have been waiting outside for so long, has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not seen us?" ”

Xiao Huangmen gave him a blank look.

"Are you bachelors? Do you know how to answer the doubts of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone shut up directly.

They also have nothing to say.

……

Speaking of Ouyang Xun, as soon as he entered the East Palace, Li Chengqian greeted him.

At this time, Ouyang Xun was already an old man, but his face was full of red light, and his body was very tough.

Li Chengqian pulled Ouyang and asked, "Master Ouyang, please come in quickly!" Have a seat! Come, serve good tea! ”

Ouyang Xun wondered, looked at Li Chengqian for a while, and his face showed doubt.

He didn't know why Li Chengqian asked him to come over at this time?

I was even more apprehensive in my heart.

"Ouyang Xun meets His Royal Highness the Prince"

Ouyang Xun hunched his waist and saluted.

"Master Ouyang, excuse me!"

After Ouyang Xun sat down, the tea was also served.

At this time, Datang's tea is put with ginger, onion and garlic, which is mixed with various flavors.

If it weren't for Li Chengqian's inability to make tea, he might have directly transformed it as soon as possible.

But it's better than nothing, this is a guest, or better than tea.

After making tea, Ouyang Xun finally couldn't help but ask, "I don't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned a certain person at this time?" Is it just bubble tea to talk about the day? ”

Ouyang inquired about this product very directly, and he didn't even bend around the bush.

Of course, he directly has his own capital, even Li Shimin is polite to him.

Since Ouyang Xun was so direct, Li Chengqian was not polite.

He said: "Master Ouyang, in fact, this king has something to ask for!" ”

After Ouyang Xun listened, he thought for a while, and instead of agreeing directly, he asked, "Oh?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please speak! If it's a matter of learning, the old man must know everything. ”

Learned? How can it be? Li Chengqian wants the real thing!

So Li Chengqian said directly:

"This king wants to ask for a word from Master Ouyang!"

As soon as these words came out, Ouyang Xun's face instantly changed color, and then he showed embarrassment. It looks like it's getting a little harder.

You must know that his calligraphy attainments are very deep, and there is an endless stream of seekers in Chang'an and even Datang, but there are only a handful of people who can ask for it, after all, this needs to be like-minded. It's not what you want, you can want!

Even if you are the crown prince, if you want it, you have to work hard, and it is not even possible.

"This ......"

"What? Is Ouyang a problem? ”

Ouyang Xun's obvious performance has explained everything, and it is not easy to get words this time.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, in fact, this is the case. I made an oath three years ago that I have sealed the pen and will no longer inscribe for people, so I may not be able to fulfill your wishes in the words you requested, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can understand. ”

"Even if the king asks for it, can't it?"

"The old man also hopes that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince understands! This rule really can't be broken! The emperor also knows that the old man has sealed the pen! ”

said that Li Shimin knew it, and it seemed that there was indeed such a thing.

This is the arrogant nature of the literati and inkmen, he is cool, he will give you an inscription, not happy, no one can come, as long as it is said that the pen is sealed, even if you are the prince, you will not be able to get my calligraphy!

It's no wonder that someone came with his calligraphy and paintings, because he sealed the pen and stopped writing, and the market would have less of his authentic works, and the scarcity was expensive, which turned out to be so valuable now.

However, Li Chengqian was not in a hurry, and just took advantage of this time to scold Ouyang Xun. I will definitely be able to get something good.

Then put forward the benefits with him, Li Chengqian believed that he would succeed, and all the reasons were drunk.

It's like slapping you in the face and then giving you a candy. And for you to thank me.

Therefore, Li Chengqian was scared.
