Verse 166 I don't draw tigers

The next day, Wenbi.

For ordinary Yixian people, how can Wenbi have the sight of Wubi, and how lively is Wubi? But there were only a lot more people who came than on the first day, and the purpose of many people coming to see was actually to Li Hu, and when they talked about each other, they asked: "Can Li Hu still win the first place?" ”

Wu Kui Li Hu got it, that was a matter of course.

In China, after Li Hu's identity in the army was revealed, when he was in a critical situation, he had to lead the troops to fight against a veteran general like Tao Kan, and it was naturally rumored that he was a brave champion of the three armies. In fact, Li Yisheng can't let go of water, and the celebrities hired can decide Wenbi's ranking, if you interfere arbitrarily, Wenbi's achievements will be investigated, and people won't throw out the inside story of your interference and lend it? That would ruin the name of the Zhu Valve.

The weather is warm and cold, Wubi can be held outside, but Wenbi is frozen outside, so he puts it in the attic outside the manor, but he can't see it, everyone is still there, and it seems that he is only waiting for a result.

In terms of the setting of the title of Wenbi, Li Yisheng has already considered it, and he is completely inclined to those state and county children. He added painting and quyi, it is a kind of isolation for ordinary Han scholars, these Han scholars, calligraphy may not be a problem, although there may not be enough paper, but once they study hard, they can practice the words well, and for poetry, the same, carving some words, the same is not difficult, but painting, music, then which one does not need the guidance of a famous teacher, without a famous teacher, you can not even learn the brushwork of painting, without a famous teacher, the pitch of the five tones, you can't grasp it.

As for Li Hu, because of his background, if he wants to say that he can, he can know some, but literature and martial arts, some people say that they complement each other, and some people say that water and fire are incompatible.

As the saying goes, martial arts are born from blood, and literature comes from meditation.

It's hard to say that a person with a martial temperament can read a book quietly, and once you read it, it's hard for you to find an image to apply to him.

Zhang Fei, a fierce general in history, did you let him paint with a gongbi?

Let him hold a pipa again and bounce back?

Zhang Fei himself must not be able to bear it.

Li Yisheng felt that Li Hu couldn't take Wenkui, so he held the view that civil and military forces are like fire and water. Of course, he didn't dare to be too sure, because there were people in the world who were exemplary, although there was a drama in Jingkang as evidence, and no one believed that Dia Niao was still longer than Wen, but in Dongxia, the people described their king as "Wen Tao Wu Strategy" did not think it was enough, and a "holy bravery" must be added.

The king is Li Hu's father...... Son Xiao's father, the king can do it, who said that his son can't?

Therefore, it is not strange that Li Hu can write, and Li Yisheng is still looking forward to it, once Li Hu can be civil and military, he will sit on the "son Xiao father", even if Di Ah Niao does not establish a prince in his lifetime, and does not take the elder as a thing, in the future, the country will still put its voice and eyes on him, very simply, Li Hu is the most expensive in blood, and people like his father, if he can't inherit his father, the people will not be willing.

And if Li Hu wants to be able to win Wenkui, Li Yisheng is one of the first few people to witness, and from then on, he can make more accurate judgments about the future and be more sure of who he will be loyal to.

This is also the reason why Li Yuanyang can make him angry.

Rather than saying that the scholars were excited before entering, Li Yisheng was more excited than them, standing in the attic, watching the scholars come to sit in the attic, but he hadn't seen Li Hu yet, Li Yisheng went down unconsciously, and went inside and outside the venue to find it.

found Li Hu and listened to Li Duocai and Yang Yanyan's advice on the sidelines.

He smiled and gestured, pretending to pass by, and heard them arranging Li Hu to say, "Paint." You draw the tiger, and you draw the tiger well. ”

Li Hu shook his head slightly and entered the attic.

Draw a tiger?

Li Yisheng hesitated.

After the hour came, the attic floor floor, but the scholars were not full, and there were many fewer people in the county, the reason was that they themselves were found by the rich man, and they asked a scholar in ten miles and eight townships, and when they heard the topic yesterday, they naturally knew that they had a project that they didn't know anything about, so they simply refused to go back to the owner and did not dare to come.

Dozens of scholars sat down at the table, but someone came outside, and the Wuxian order made an official salute, reminding "the county school and the county middle officials at this time", and they hurriedly sat down. Several officials in regular clothes walked in from one side and had already stood on the side, which actually showed the power of the Zhu family, so that everyone knew that it was to bid for a piece of land, and the Zhu family called the county school and Zhongzheng...... And this bid has also been pushed to a height.

The judges on the assessment table rose up and saluted, and humbly gave their seats.

Zhongzheng was personally assigned by Situ, because of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, compared with the county school, it seems to be in a high position, and it is natural for Wuxian to order the official ceremony. The leader Zhongzheng was not polite and strode up...... As soon as he turned his head, he asked, "What about Mr. Li?" ”

He asked Li Yisheng.

Everyone looked for Li Yisheng everywhere, and found the Zhongzheng official looking for him, Li Yisheng came up with a smile, but Zhongzheng hurriedly got up, greeted Chen Tianyi's son, and pointed to the position on the side to let him take a seat.

In this way, Zhu is even more awe-inspiring.

A master, Zhongzheng is willing to sit on an equal footing with him, and greets their sons, respectfully.

Zhongzheng glanced at it and looked at the scholars coldly, even if they were enough to be proud of the prince, they were extremely afraid of the Zhongzheng officials.

A sentence of evaluation can directly control people's future.

On the assessment seat, everyone sat down one by one facing a couch with a piano arrangement, Zhongzheng stroked his beard, and asked with a smile: "Do you have any thoughts of being a leader?" ”

Li Yisheng said with a smile: "Students are not judges. But I don't know what you think? ”

An assessor hurriedly said: "Wei Bo Fan is here, and with his reputation, he is expected to take the lead." ”

"Oh?"

Zhongzheng Guan Daqi exclaimed: "Fan Yong." ”

Among the scholars stood a young scholar with a short beard and a round face.

Zhongzheng asked him: "Why do you still want to come to compete for Wenkui?" What is the benefit of Wen Kui and you? ”

Li Hu also hurriedly turned his head.

Zhongzheng is well-known across counties, and it seems that he is a well-known figure.

The scholar said with a smile: "The family is in the middle of the road, and I want to buy one or two fields on behalf of my brother, but I didn't expect that the fields of Tianyi Gongzi's family are all with a literary atmosphere." ”

The judging table burst into laughter.

Zhongzheng pressed his hand and asked him to sit down.

Then, Zhongzheng asked others again: "If you are in addition to Fan Yong, only about the Wenkui of this county, who will it be?" ”

One person said: "Wang Wen teaches his son." Wuxian Ling was suddenly embarrassed, afraid that Zhongzheng would ask again who would be the leader in this county, and there was really no outstanding young scholar in this county...... Several, swept over at a glance, all of them were found by the rich man. Seeing that Zhongzheng was looking over, Wuxian Ling said: "The nephew of the county Cheng has a lot of reading, and I am afraid that he is a big candidate." There is also Li Hu of this county, who took Wu Kui yesterday and announced that he will take Wu Kui today. ”

When the audience was not allowed to hear it, only the first two rows of the audience could hear it faintly, but the scholars all pricked their ears, and seemed to care about what they were saying.

Li Yisheng noticed that only Li Hu and Fan Yong showed indifference.

The assessor took out the question, showed it to Zhongzheng, and asked, "How about an adult read out the question?" ”

Zhongzheng held the title up, coughed, and announced: "Poetry." With the title of 'Buddha holding flowers, smiling leaves', it can be used as a poem and a feasible text. ”

The next soldier was suddenly taken aback.

Many people tried to exchange their heads, but they knew that the people on the assessment seat were watching, so they hurriedly straightened up. Li Hu frowned suddenly, as soon as he heard the Buddha, he knew that it was not good, and he looked at it on the assessment seat, but he didn't know who came up with the question, how could he take the Buddhist scriptures as the topic?

is pinning its hopes on Zhongzheng to correct, although it is not a temple selection, it should not be used to talk about the mysteries in poetry.

However, this kind of topic seems to have become a trend, Zhongzheng laughed and said: "It seems that all beings are not knowledgeable, and I am afraid that they will lose the topic." ”

Li Hu sighed angrily.

Turning his head to look at others, some people also had sad faces, and they were relieved, knowing that only the word "Buddha" still made people difficult.

The rice paper was sent, the scholars grinded the pen, and Li Hu also hurriedly reacted.

If you haven't read "Five Lantern Huiyuan", you don't even know the source, let alone play it. But fortunately, there are easy-to-understand words "flowers" and "smiles", Li Hu has a little idea, has written: "Smell the sound of the piano and know the elegant meaning, what is it, know and get it." It was also luck that he didn't go off topic at the beginning, so he started from "knowing and getting", and a moment has passed a hundred words, and the calligraphy has been combined with the calligraphy...... With the long and short folds of Di's calligraphy, after a while, Li Hu felt bored, this kind of patchwork interpretation of the book was written throughout, and what was it to express? With a twist of his pen, he recounted: "People are learning, and it is difficult to succeed in loneliness; For a long time, I have been on one side for a long time, and I have learned from the world without realizing it, and I should be heard and pondered, although the peddler is a pawn, but I must be taught. Smile and know. People take the supremacy of the Buddha, can be on par with the sky, the golden rule, can not be disobeyed, hold the Tao and teach, the big fallacy, but do not know the ethereal Buddha and the truth of all beings. Heaven nurtures all sentient beings, and the Tao is in the Tao, and the Tao is in it......"

By this time, he had already digressed.

The Buddha plucked flowers, and the leaves laughed, how could he use the peddler's pawn to teach him Li Hu, Li Hu knew a lot, and he would smile to compare?

Li Hu didn't realize it, but just incorporated Abba's teachings into it.

Fan Yong quickly handed in the papers.

Li Hu is sure that he knows the source and can understand the truth, but there is no way...... It's not that he hasn't touched the Buddhist scriptures, but he? How could he possibly study the Buddhist scriptures?

Smiled bitterly for a moment, got up too, strode towards the evaluation seat, and when he arrived, he also unfolded the scroll and stepped back himself.

One after another, sentient beings turned in the papers again and again.

At the evaluation seat, everyone nodded for a while, smiled bitterly for a while, and sometimes read Fuhe poems, and everyone shook their heads with charm.

Li Yisheng was going to find Li Hu's article.

Zhongzheng has already grasped it in his hands.

There was no way, so he had to take the article of Fan Yong that Zhongzheng had read and read it word by word.

The theme of Fan Yong's writing is "The Tao is ineffable". Reading it throughout, the writing is gorgeous, and it is very reasonable, and it seems that in the bidding for such a small ratio, such an article is enough to reach the top. Especially his one-handed italics, plump and neat, are rare. No wonder Zhongzheng nodded frequently before, but at this moment, Li Yisheng squinted at him, but found that he was frowning, as if he was already impatient, reading Li Hu's article with great patience.

Looking at Fan Yong's article, it is not only pleasing to the eye, but also reasonable, and sticking to the topic, Li Yisheng has no hope.

Sure enough, Zhongzheng put down Li Hu's article and said with a wry smile: "It is plain and easy to read, but it is distorted, it is this handwriting, which is both magnificent and robust, and does not belong to any family." ”

Li Yisheng put down Fan Yong's.

No matter how well Fan Yong wrote, he didn't care, so he hurriedly took Li Hu's and read it carefully, and after reading it again, he knew what the problem was.

Li Hu doesn't believe in Buddhism, and he has a little contempt for it.

yes.

He should have despised it, Dongxia was going to be natural selection.

The Buddha's Buddhism is based on Li Hu, and it is better for the peddler to let him experience a piece or two of insight.

Immediately afterwards, Zhongzheng poofed, couldn't hold back his laughter, and simply held the roll for Li Yisheng to read. Li Yisheng glanced at it and knew that this was another Dongxia volume, what was written? As soon as the Buddha plucked the flowers, the Buddha smiled, and the king of sycophants belonged to him. My king taught the people of the country that if you know, you know, and if you don't know, you don't know, and you laugh and make fools...... Li Yisheng also sneered. However, his laughter is obviously not the same thing as Zhongzheng's laughter.

Simple Chinese feelings.

Zhongzheng shook the scroll and said: "Compared with these messes, Li Hu's writing is much better. ”

Everyone read it, Fan Yong won the first, Baojun Wang Wenjiao was second, and Li Hu finally won the fifth.

After that, only five people counted the scores, and the rest, everyone abandoned them one by one, not only abandoned, but also laughed back and forth. Among these ten people, only one is from this county, or a Dongxia person, and the rest of the county people have been wiped out, including the relatives of the county Cheng, for no other reason, they have not read the Buddhist scriptures, they are all making up nonsense, and the righteousness is chaotic, even if the rhetoric is gorgeous, it can't be made up at all, it is also a joke for spraying rice, and the rest are all Wei Bo and Baojun scholars, they can more or less sort out the relationship between the Buddha and the Buddha.

No matter how it is determined on the evaluation seat, Li Yisheng's score for Li Hu in his heart is higher, second only to Fan Yong, the reason why he is inferior to him is that Li Hu has not read Buddhist scriptures, as for the simplicity of the writing, it is simply the style of Dongxia, which is not a shortcoming.

When it was announced, everyone had no objections, after all, everyone was empty-hearted, this Buddha took flowers, and Ka Ye laughed, what to laugh at, everyone didn't know.

Li Hu admired his wit, so he talked about it, but he bypassed it.

Next is painting, Li Hu spread out the paper scroll, thinking of his life in Jingkang these days, and his heart seems to open an uncontrollable mountain spring.

The wind and rain are bleak, and the people are thousands...... With a touch of pen and ink, he began to sketch the field, yes, the competition time is limited, it is difficult to use a fine brush, and it is not easy to complete.

Yang Yanyan with a smile like a flower, the kind Aunt Yang, the heroic Yang Linggang, the stunned Yang Li, and the lazy Yang Tuan...... A figure is alive, although none of them are painted, but they are all in the landscape, there is no deep mountain forest, elegant evening pavilion, only a faint ink and some shades given by the sun, and the wind and drizzle, lonely distant mountains, in the quiet of the countryside, suddenly there are people who are farming and having fun, as if the world is opened, the ploughing cattle, the river bay, the windmill, the slanting sun, the thick feelings are pouring out.

Li Hu was already sighing in his heart: "If it was before, no matter what, I wouldn't have been able to paint such a painting." ”

He wanted to take care of the people on the assessment seat, and suddenly opened a fold, and the field was opened up, until there was a trace of the distant mountain, and his vision changed to standing on the city tower, and a kind of artistic conception of governance and observation was revealed.

Even with the ingredients of gongbi, Li Hu was still the first to finish the painting, got up and stepped forward, and presented the scroll.

Wuxian Ling is a person who is a county official, and the priest is on the side, and he fell into the artistic conception and was suddenly full of tears...... Xuezheng was also stunned, as if he couldn't think of it.

He looked at Li Hu from above a few times, turned his head to look for Li Yisheng, but Li Yisheng left the table and went to the side door to listen to Zhuang Ding.

Zhuang Ding told him that Miao Baotian's people had shown up and ran away on horseback, not knowing if they were watching Li Hu. Li Yisheng came back quietly, just as Fan Ying handed over the paper and put down a colorful tiger. When he looked at it again, it turned out to be a tiger going up the mountain, blowing at the morning sun, and the birds were startling...... Taken aback, he hurriedly looked at Li Hu. Everyone looked at the tiger, had to put Li Hu's aside, although Li Hu's very intentional intention, but the artistic conception is also high and low, this side of the tiger, unique, or the mountain tiger, but the momentum of the king of beasts in the majesty.

This seems to be better in terms of artistic conception, and everyone sighs, so they have to compare the two paintings repeatedly.

In the end, after weighing it again and again, everyone felt that they should give the first to Fan Yong, because Fan Yong is famous, and the artistic conception of the king of beasts climbing the mountain and roaring the sun is naturally higher than looking down on the countryside.

Li Yisheng suddenly had questions.

He trembled and pointed to the painting and asked, "This painting?" ”

Everyone looked at him and asked him, "What's the problem?" ”

Li Yisheng was excited. This painting, this painting is the picture of "Tiger Roaring High Hills, Rising Sun" published in the North Plains. This painting was actually painted by Li Hu? Li Hu's paintings were once published all over the Northern Plains, and were respected by the literati of Eastern Xia? On the day of General Zhang Tietou's suicide, he especially hugged the painting and appreciated it. If that's the case, Li Hu can't get Wen Kui, he is Wen Kui, is he Wen Kui? Li Yisheng smiled bitterly and said, "There is no problem with this painting. This painting ...... This painting? ”

He took a deep breath and said, "This painting was once published in the Eastern Xia Dynasty, and it was deservedly rated as the first. He said with certainty: "Li Hu should be Wen Kui." ”

Everyone was stunned.

This painting?

It was painted by Fan Yong.

Someone else told him, "I'm mistaken." Mistaken. This painting was not painted by Li Hu, it was made by Fan Yong. ”

Li Yisheng was stunned: "This is what Fan Yong did?" I've seen ...... before that."

Fan Yong stood in his seat and said with a smile: "You guys are laughing, this painting is imitated, I have seen it once, and I was deeply impressed, so I imitated it." Mr. Li is right, this pictorial is from Dongxia, I don't know who made it, and it changed the tiger down the mountain to the tiger up the mountain...... But it's more like the king of beasts. ”

A few of those who had handed in the paper stretched out their heads to look at it.

A Dongxia man shouted, "That's right. Is this us? Our publication is colored, and his one is black. ”

When everyone heard that it was imitation, they all found Li Hu's painting again, his was imitation, so he couldn't be counted as the first, but Li Hu's painting, is it imitation?

The word "imitation" inspired everyone.

Everyone also suddenly remembered that Li Hu completed this painting in such a short time, relying on on-the-spot performance, conceiving such words, forming an extraordinary artistic conception, how could he do it?

Moreover, the brushwork of this painting is also quite complex, and there are many scenes hidden in the scroll.

Is this one also imitation?

To be on the safe side, Zhongzheng asked, "Li Hu." Is this one of yours a replica? ”

Li Hu shook his head and said with a smile: "No. That's where we are. Do you see a waterwheel, which I made? ”

Zhongzheng does not believe it.

is imitation, Li Hu also won, in a similar time, Li Hu imitated a lot of brushes and ink, but he finished first, and he also won Fan Yong.

Zhongzheng simply said: "You honestly say that it is imitation, and you have won, but if you lie, your results will be canceled." ”

Li Hu wondered: "I painted it?" ”

"Draw so fast?"

Li Hu said: "I have an idea in my chest, and it is a matter of course that I can do it quickly. ”

A person from this county said for Li Hu: "Li Hu is good at painting, and we all know it in the whole county." ”

Li Yisheng asked him rhetorically: "Didn't you say that you want to draw a tiger?" ”

Everyone suddenly made waves, turned their heads to look at Li Yisheng, suspecting that he was secretly fulfilling Li Hu, otherwise why did they know that Li Hu wanted to draw a tiger, and just now they mistakenly thought that the tiger was painted by Li Hu?

Li Hu said: "I used to have only tigers in my chest, but I didn't have that cluster of peonies. Now that I smell peonies, I naturally don't want to draw tigers anymore. ”

Li Yisheng remembered that there was still a Chinese painting in Dongxia.

Several young people in Dongxia said: "The tiger sniffing peony has also been published." Li Hu, you know it too. ”

Zhongzheng said: "Then you come, you imitate Fan Yong's painting, I will see how long you can finish painting, count the time for him, I still don't believe it." ”

Li Hu was interested.

He knew why there was such a result, he obviously won the first place, and he still had to prove it, so he said lightly: "What about painting? ”

However, when he came to the front, he was stunned when he saw Fan Yong's painting.

Fan Yong's imitation of the painting was originally his.

Li Hu laughed dumbly, a kind of pride was born, and he wanted to tell others loudly, but it was difficult to say it clearly, so he simply strode back to his position, and Zhongzheng was still shouting at him, demanding: "You take the painting too, it's a good imitation of the painting." ”

Li Hu refused: "No." ”

As soon as he lifted the pen, he almost didn't look at it, and after a while, he blew it up, waited for the ink to dry a little, peeled off the rice paper, and handed it over to the evaluation seat.

There were people in the hall who had not finished painting yet.

The scholars of this county couldn't help but shout: "Li Hu." You're too fast, aren't you? ”

Everyone opened their eyes to look at this painting, compared Fan Yong once, and stayed on the spot.

These three imitation paintings are more imposing and artistic conception than the two imitation paintings, the key is that the tiger, the shoulders and legs are strong, the tiger's head hair is full, the tiger's tail is relaxed, and it drags longer, like the real work is inferior, on the other hand, Fan Yong's one, compared to it, the tiger is a little wrong, the tiger's tail and butt are clamped part, giving people the feeling that the tiger does not have that kind of slow and gentle laziness, but is in a temper.

Finally, Zhongzheng announced: "Li Hu first." ”
