As soon as he got up, Dongyue ran over and told him that someone was waiting for him outside, Wang Ke put on the clothes he had just sent yesterday, put on a pair of cloth shoes made by Dongyue according to his own feet and came to the front yard, and when he entered the door, he saw a boy dressed as a subordinate standing by the door waiting.
Wang Ke stepped forward and asked, "Are you looking for me?" What's the matter? ”
After the salute, he said: "Prince Wang, I am a descendant of the family of the Third Highness, and My Royal Highness has asked me to tell you that Princess Nanping held a banquet in the house today, and specially asked my Royal Highness to go with you, and His Royal Highness asked me to invite you to come with me, and His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the house." ”
Wang Ke nodded, let the people wait, and turned back to the backyard to say to Mrs. Wang, of course Mrs. Wang had no opinion on Wang Ke and these royal family members, but just told Wang Ke to pay attention to etiquette, drink less and let him go.
When I came to the door of Li Ke's mansion, I saw that Li Ke was already waiting outside the door. Seeing Wang Ke coming, he didn't say much, and when he went in, he pointed Wang Ke to Nanping's mansion.
Recently, Wang Ke and Li Ke have been running around in Chang'an City every day, and the people in Chang'an City are not surprised by this monster, and when they see the car coming, they will at most turn sideways, after all, the road at this time is not as wide as in later generations.
Walking into the front hall of Princess Nanping's mansion, Wang Ke saw that the two plagiarized poems he wrote had been framed and hung on the wall, and the people who came to the banquet were pointing and talking.
I saw Li Ke clapping his hands and saying: "You don't need to read it, the person who wrote these two poems has already come, so let's talk to him directly if you have anything." After speaking, he glanced at one of them seemingly inadvertently.
When everyone heard Li Ke's words, they all looked at Wang Ke. Wang Ke saw that there were really a lot of people, the last time I saw them in Xiangcheng Princess Villa, there were a few who met for the first time today, and I don't know who they were.
Li Ke was like a roundworm in Wang Ke's stomach, knowing what Wang Ke was thinking, and introduced Wang Ke to Wang Ke in a low voice.
Only then did Wang Ke know that the people who came to Nanping Mansion today were not all royal people, but also some sons and daughters of ministers in the court.
Wang Ke didn't see Nanping after seeing the ceremony one by one, so he couldn't help but ask Li Ke. Li Ke and Wang Ke came together, and they definitely didn't know, but they pulled down a subordinate and asked about it, and they knew that Nanping had gone down to arrange the banquet, and they would come over in a while.
Wang Ke didn't say anything, and walked outside the door to take a closer look at Nanping's garden.
Just when Wang Ke could see his mind, Nanping's voice came from behind him: "Wang Gongzi, we have a great talent here who wants to discuss poetry and poetry with Wang Gongzi, I don't know if Wang Gongzi is interested." ”
Wang Ke turned around, and after saluting Nanping, he noticed that Li Ke was standing there with a person behind Nanping, and he was quite handsome, but the look in his eyes made Wang Ke dislike it very much.
Wang Ke remembered that Li Ke mentioned that this person's name was Cui Ming when he introduced it just now, and he didn't say it very well in words, and it was probably not too reasonable.
Li Ke stepped forward and whispered to Wang Ke: "Brother Wang, we don't like this person very much, I know that because the relationship between my fathers is not bad, many times we have to let him come together." On weekdays, he has some literary talents, and he is very arrogant, so today you can teach him a good lesson and let him know a little powerful. ”
Wang Ke smiled slightly, raised his hand to Cui Ming and said, "I don't know how Brother Cui wants to compare?" Please also ask Brother Cui to give a chapter first. ”
Cui Ming replied proudly: "It's nothing else, let's make a poem based on the scenery in the courtyard, I think Brother Wang should have no problem." ”
Wang Ke couldn't get used to this kind of arrogant person, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, and said directly: "This is easy to do, I don't know if Brother Cui has a good sentence?" But let's talk about it first, let me learn a lesson. ”
Cui Ming thought more than Wang Ke, and he always wanted to compare himself with Wang Ke, he had already thought about it in his heart, and he was not polite, and he opened his mouth to be a seven-word quatrain. Everyone also felt good, and they all looked at Wang Ke to see how he coped, and Nanping looked at Wang Ke with some worried eyes, afraid that he would not be able to come up with good poems for a while and make a fool of himself.
Wang Ke listened to Cui Ming's poems and felt that he had expressed the scenery of the garden perfectly, and couldn't help but hesitate, after all, it was really difficult to overshadow Cui Ming in the same way. There is no place in the whole poem that writes about the beauty of the scenery, but thinking about it the other way, it sets off the beauty of the spring in the garden before the rain, which is very suitable for fighting with Cui Ming, which is surprising.
"Last night, the rain was sparse and the wind was sudden, and the heavy sleep did not kill the wine. tried the questionnaire curtain people, but said, 'Begonia is still the same'. Do you know, do you know? It should be green, fat, red and thin. After reading it, Wang Ke looked at Cui Ming with a smile and asked, "I don't know if this poem can enter Brother Cui's ears?" ”
Cui Ming is also a talented person, how can he not understand the meaning of this contrast, he can't afford his own plain poems, I don't know how many times smarter. Although he was also convinced, he was still stubborn: "Brother Wang is smart, I heard that Brother Wang's calligraphy is good, I don't know if I can study the skills of painting, and I ask Brother Wang to teach me." ”
Wang Ke was angry when he heard it, and said in his heart: "MD, if you lose poetry, it's better than painting, come and come, who is afraid of whom." Last time you did the question, this time I should come to the question, see that I don't play you to death. Thinking about it, he pointed to a cluster of bamboo forests in the corner of the courtyard and said, "Brother Cui, you see that this piece of green bamboo is very good, why don't we paint with bamboo as the theme?" ”
Cui Ming had already asked the question just now, and it was reasonable for Wang Ke to take the initiative to come up with the question this time, and Cui Ming was not easy to object, so he had to agree.
Tang Dynasty paintings are mainly based on ladies and landscapes, and they are not very familiar with the painting of flowers and birds. Of course, Wang Ke knows the truth in painting, and his freehand flowers and birds are best at pine and bamboo.
The two came to the case, each did their own thing, Wang Ke painted bamboo from Zheng Xie (Zheng Banqiao) painting method, not to say that it was the essence of it, but also learned eight or nine points, and after a while, he copied a picture of Zheng Xie's wind and bamboo. Looking at Cui Ming again, half of it has not been drawn. Because there was no freehand painting in the Tang Dynasty, most of them were mainly white drawings and coloring, which was simpler than the orthodox gongbi paintings, but it was still much slower than freehand.
Everyone was amazed when they saw that Wang Ke only reflected the style of bamboo with the change of ink color, and Cui Ming was embarrassed to paint at this time, so he had to put down his pen. looked around, saw that everyone ignored him, and felt that he had no face to stay any longer, so he found an excuse to leave.
When Li Ke saw Cui Ming leaving, he was so happy that he gave Wang Ke a punch and said: "Brother Wang, Brother Wang, how much ability you still haven't revealed, I'm so happy today, you helped us teach this guy who doesn't know the height of the sky a good lesson." ”
Wang Ke was very happy to see everyone, and said in a joking tone: "Is there anything I can't do?" I really don't know, it seems that there is nothing I can't do except not have children. Everyone burst out laughing.
Nanping saw that the two of them were talking more and more out of proportion, and hurriedly stepped forward to invite everyone into the house for a banquet, and everyone walked in twos and threes to the several cases where the wine and food had already been arranged.
