Li You saw Gu Ruoyu and asked kindly, "This little lady's surname?" ”

Although Gu Ruoyu's family background is not good, her father loves her very much, saves money, and teaches her poetry, calligraphy and painting since she was a child. She likes poetry, especially the poems of Li You, the king of Qi, she can't afford to buy "Li You's Poems", in order to save money, she copied down a lot of Li You's poems, customized a copy herself, made a cover and title page, and it looks more warm than the "Li You's Poems" she bought.

The girl is pregnant with spring, Gu Ruoyu also has a hazy poetry in her heart, she once saw Li You from afar, and she couldn't see his face really. At this moment, when Li You's kind smile appeared in front of her, her heart was in a trance, and she didn't even hear Li You's question.

Wu Jue was used to this kind of scene, and she said: "Lord Wang, you can't just stand here and talk, please invite this little lady to come in and talk." ”

Li You smiled: "What I said is, let's talk inside." With that, he walked inside, Xiao Qian, Wei Zheng and others.

Wu Jue came to Gu Ruoyu's side, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said, "This sister, come with me." "The two are the same age, and it looks like Gu Ruoyu is slightly older.

Gu Ruoyu knew that Wu Jue's status was noble, so she hurriedly saluted her, and then followed her palace inside.

When Wu Jue held Gu Ruoyu's hand, she felt a little surprised, only to feel that her palm was a little rough, but the back of her hand was extremely slippery, probably because this girl's skin was very good, she often worked with her hands, and her palm was rough.

She subconsciously glanced at it, but found that the skin on her hands was unusually fair, and her wrists were smooth and delicate, which formed a strong contrast with the skin on her face and neck, and she couldn't help but be alert.

When he arrived in the guest room, Li You first introduced Xiao Qian, Wei Zheng and Gao Jingming, Gu Ruoyu was inevitably a little nervous in the face of these big people, and saluted them one by one.

In order to relax him, Li You motioned to Wu Jue to let her sit down, and Wu Jue took her hand and sat on the sofa with her.

Li You took the bronze lock and asked, "Gu Xiaoniang, who engraved the handwriting on this golden lock?" He had already seen that the golden lock had not been made by one person, but that the handwriting on it had been added by another person later.

What he was most interested in was the handwriting on it, which was a set of dates, all of which were uppercase numbers, and the traditional Chinese characters of the Tang Dynasty were very complex, and the numbers were the same. These handwritings are engraved between square inches, and they are all upright and clear, which is not much better than those burned by computers in later generations. This is what the printing of banknotes wants.

Gu Ruoyu heard the prince's question, hurriedly stood up again, and said: "Back to the prince's words, it was engraved by the slave's father. ”

Li You was still a little uneasy, and asked, "I said that it is not this golden lock, but this line of words on it." ”

Gu Ruoyu said: "The slave family knows that this golden lock was left to me by the slave family's mother, and the line of words on it was carved by the slave family's father in order to remember the slave family's birthday. ”

Li You sighed, smiled and said, "Gu Xiaoniang, please sit down, and you will sit and talk in the future." ”

Li You asked, "Where is your father?" What do you do for a living? ”

Gu Ruoyu talked about the situation at home.

Li You briefly discussed with Xiao Qian and the others, asked Baihu to take out some money, and said: "It's a pity that your father was not able to compete, if he can compete, he is the champion of the bronze engraving." However, since you have brought his works, you should also give a reward, and you can take back the money to subsidize the family. ”

Gu Ruoyu accepted the money and said happily: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Qi." ”

Li You said: "You go back and ask your father to see if he is willing to serve in the imperial court, Yulu is very generous." ”

Gu Ruoyu said: "I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult, the slave's father is unable to move. ”

Li You said: "It's okay to do this, your family can live in the Qi Palace." ”

Gu Ruoyu said happily: "The slave family will go back to persuade my father." ”

Li You nodded and said, "Jue'er, you send Gu Xiaoniang out for me." ”

"Yes, lord." Wu Jue left with Gu Ruoyu.

Gao Jingming said: "Your Highness, this person must let him participate in the production of gravure printing, his skills cannot be lost to the people." His worries are not unnecessary, even if the imperial court develops a copper engraving, this person's skills can probably be imitated.

Wei Zheng and Xiao Qian understood what he meant, but this kind of difficult thing for a strong man was in conflict with their moral concepts, so neither of them spoke up.

Everyone looked at Li You.

Li You said: "Lord Gao is reasonable, invite them to the Qi Palace, and I will take good care of their lives." ”

Li You said: "White Tiger, you go and call Tian Min." ”

After a while, Tian Min came over. He asked, "Lord Wang, do you have any orders?" ”

Li You said: "There is a famous copper carver of Gukun, who is very important to the imperial court, tomorrow morning, you go with Baihu, and you must persuade him to move to the Qi Palace." He didn't want to go too far, so he left a day for Gu Kun's father and daughter to discuss.

Liangyi Palace, study.

Li Shimin sat at his desk, holding a book in his hand, but he couldn't read a word. A pretty face came to his mind, the beauty of this pretty face could not be specifically described, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were like stars, faint and distant, timeless and hazy, fresh and brilliant, pure as a child. Her beauty is better than all Li Shimin's other concubines.

"Li Lang, the slave family is waiting for you here, forever, forever ......" The soft and tactful voice echoed in his ears.

The Qi Palace's distance from the Yongyang Fang, where Gu Ruoyu lived, passed through the entire Chang'an City, she got up early and went out, walked for a long time, and arrived at the Qi Palace, still not in time for the start of the edition printing competition. Now that she had money, she hired a carriage and bought her father's favorite pastries on the way, and returned home in high spirits.

Gu Ruoyu pushed open the door, and the scene in front of her stunned her. She saw her father fall to the ground and the house was in a mess. She hurriedly stepped forward to help Gu Kun and asked eagerly, "Daddy, what's wrong with you?" ”

With Gu Ruoyu's support, Gu Kun sat on the bed, and his voice trembled and asked, "Ruoyu, where have you been, where is the golden lock?" ”

Seeing that her father was looking for the golden lock, Gu Ruoyu put her mind at ease, she took out the golden lock, handed it to Gu Kun, and said excitedly: "Father, you don't know, who did I see today?" She told him in one breath what had happened today.

Gu Kun was shocked, he pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said decisively: "Ruoyu, hurry up and pack your things, let's leave Chang'an immediately." ”
