Gan Qi took it, looked at the pattern, and then looked at Zhao Zonghan, he was surprised in his heart, and said: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it to be you, I didn't expect you to really be, you really painted well, you actually used a brush to draw a three-dimensional feeling, this flower, it is really vivid, if it is painted with paint, I am afraid that it will be even more extraordinary." ”

"Winning awards is nothing, it's just the use of some boundary painting methods, which seems to have a sense of layering." Zhao Zonghan said that it was nothing, and he held his head high and grinned.

The painting skills of the Song Dynasty still have some genres, the highest and the most upper, which belongs to Su Shi's kind of stroke outline, dragonfly and water, and far-reaching artistic conception. Then there is Wang Ximeng's "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", which is atmospheric and embellished with paints, fine and magnificent.

The next level, that is, such as Wang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Map", this is the boundary painting. The so-called boundary painting, which can be understood in another way, is the method of realism, just like a photograph, it is a genre of realism, and the general pattern is horizontal and vertical. Therefore, the painting "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" was not a high-end painting in the Song Dynasty. I want to go far from "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains".

In the aesthetics of the Chinese, the closer to the record, the more artistic height is lacking. Perhaps all the art schools in the world, most of the aesthetics are the same, the more cloudy it is, the more high-end the artistic attainment. "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" is more of historical value than artistic value. It's just that the later "Qingming Riverside Map" is more famous, but "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is not as good.

Zhao Zonghan's painting skills really exceeded Gan Qi's expectations, and Gan Qi was also very satisfied with Zhao Zonghan's design artwork, so he put a stack of painting paper into his clothes, and said: "Shizi, if you prepare a thousand yuan, you will be counted as one." ”

Zhao Zonghan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Mr. Gan is deducted from the dividend." ”

Gan Qi nodded, but also said: "Since there is Yicheng, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World will have to work a lot of hard work in the future, and if there are new design ideas, the help of the Prince of the World will be indispensable." ”

"Little things, do your best." Zhao Zonghan has nothing to pursue in his life, he was born in the Zhao family, and he has no chance to be on the throne, except for accumulating a big family and a big career, there is no other realistic pursuit in life. Historical records record that Zhao Zonghan was a liberal artist, a man who should be a scholar, a scholar of poetry and books, and had no other hobbies. The law is self-controlled, good at painting, and has the interest of rivers and lakes and wilderness.

It probably means that Zhao Zonghan is elegant, very easy to deal with, has no vices, and is a law-abiding and good citizen, good at painting, as well as the interest of rivers and lakes and wilderness, and likes to travel and other things.

Gan Qi is deeply aware of this point of easy dealing, and there are not many crooked intestines, and there is even a word to describe Zhao Zonghan, that is, the ancient road hot intestines.

It is extremely rare for a prince to have these qualities, and it can even be said to be a royal model. In the future, Zhao Zonghan will also be crowned king, his father Zhao Yunrang was awarded the title of King Pu after his death, although Zhao Yunrang had many sons, it was Zhao Zonghan who inherited the title of King Pu, and later posthumously crowned King Jing.

"There are a lot of things in the house, and the prince is going to be busy, just Chengwu will accompany me for a walk." Gan Qi knew that Zhao Zonghan was busy entertaining him.

Zhao Zonghan smiled and said: "Mr. Gan, you and I have been friends so far, and we have long been like-minded, and you don't have to call me the son of the world in the future, just call me Xianfu, so that it seems close, isn't it?" ”

"Then you don't have to call Mr. Gan, just Dao Jian." Gan Qi liked the character of this son of the world more and more, at first Gan Qi didn't really like Zhao Zonghan very much, but now he thinks that this person is really good, enthusiastic, simple, and righteous.

"Haha...... Dao Jian. Zhao Zonghan said with a smile.

"Dedication." Gan Qi also replied.

The two looked at each other and smiled, Zhao Zonghan arched his hand and said, "Then I'll go busy, forgive me for the neglect." ”

Gan Qi raised his hand and motioned for Zhao Zonghan to take care of himself.

Zhao Zonghan went, and Wu Chengwu took Gan Qi to slowly wander around the mansion, introducing one or two from time to time.

Wu Chengwu was also not qualified to enter the main seat, and finally took Gan Qi to the side hall to sit down for dinner.

And in the main seat of the hall, there are all royal men, the founding of the Great Song Dynasty has not been a hundred years, but it is the royal heir, there are already as many as two or three hundred, not including those in other places. Only the branch of Renzong has no heirs.

Later generations said that people in ancient times had short lives, but in fact, this is not true, because there is a misunderstanding in this.

The misunderstanding lies in the understanding of data, because the data often used to describe the short life of ancient people is the average age, some say that the average age of ancient people is only more than 20, and some say that the average age of ancient people is about 30.

This average age data does not actually show that ancient people really had a short life. Because it was too normal for ancient people to die young, even the emperor gave birth to a son, and gave birth to one and died young. If you think that there may be conspiracy problems in the royal family, and it does not represent the public, then look at Su Xun, Su Xun is in Shudi, which is also a big family, and the living conditions are excellent, but he also died a son and a young daughter.

Di Qing also had a son who died young, and Bao Zheng also had a son who died young. And most of the time, in historical records, only sons are recorded, not daughters, and if daughters are also counted, I am afraid that more will die young.

This is still a large family, if it is a small household, whether it is a living standard or a medical level, it is far less than a large family, and it is more normal to die young. Most of these children who died before they lived to be a few years old, and the oldest ones were only in their teens.

If you calculate the average age, the average age will immediately drop a lot.

In fact, the ancients, as long as they can grow up healthily, the problem of food and clothing is not bad, and the life expectancy is actually not short, ordinary people, forty or fifty years old is a normal life expectancy, and sixty or seventy years old is not uncommon. In large households, there are more people who live to be sixty or seventy years old, and those who live a long life, seventy or eighty years old are not really very rare.

In the hall, the sound of worship could already be heard, and Wu Chengwu still looked out through the crack in the door, trying to see His Majesty the Emperor clearly, but he couldn't see it really.

Gan Qi sat on the side, and asked, "You are a county horse, haven't you seen the official family yet?" ”

Wu Chengwu smiled awkwardly and said: "Where is there any county horse or not county horse, the folk say that it is just a joke, it is difficult to see, and the students are also very curious." ”

The so-called colt is the princess's husband. This is the official title in the imperial court regulations. As for the husband of the county lord, the husband of the county lord, there is actually no official title. As for the county horse and the county horse, it is just a folk talk, and this title has been criticized by Ouyang Xiu, what to say about the county horse, the county horse, I don't know what it means.

Sister Zhao is the county lord of Changle and the county lord of Yongjia of the younger sister of the Zhao family. In fact, the status of the two at this time is really not high, they are already considered royal marginal people, and after they get married, they can't even be considered royal people.

Only after Zhao Zongshi ascended the throne did his sisters rise to the top, and their status was promoted from the county lord to the county lord, but they were not princesses and could never become princesses.

This is the reason why Wu Chengwu still has the opportunity to take the imperial examination, because Wu Chengwu can still pursue it politically, if Wu Chengwu is the master of the horse, then don't think too much, just stay at home honestly and eat and sleep and serve his wife.

Gan Qi ate the dishes and asked with a smile, "What does the official family look like?" ”

"Student...... I didn't see the real ......," Wu Chengwu replied while stretching his neck to look. I can't see it clearly, but I am also looking at it with my neck stretched, looking at Wu Chengwu's appearance, I am afraid that it is almost the same as that of the star chasers in later generations. The emperor is probably the biggest idol of this era.

"You can't see it really, what else do you look at, come and eat wine." Gan Qi laughed.

"Sir, the student still wants to see ......" Wu Chengwu tilted his head around the crack in the door with a look of longing and adoration.
