As soon as Li Yu's words fell, Li Dan said: "It's not good, Lord Wei (Zheng) will never accept your gift." The pen www.biquge.info his house is the poorest among officials of the same level, because he never accepts gifts from others. ”

Du He said: "Er Fat (Li Dan's nickname) is right. Forget it, Lord Wei will never accept your gifts, and he may blow you out. ”

"As for it? Lord Wei is a decent person, but he is also a reasonable person. I don't believe it, let's show kindness, and he can still refuse. Li said in disbelief.

Li Dan said: "Pull it down." I bet he won't accept a gift from you. ”

"Bet on what?" Li Su is energetic.

Li Dan said: "If you can let Lord Wei accept your gift and then play the landlord, you will lose." I'll drill the table for you 10 times. ”

"Okay! That's it. Li Su said.

Du He said, "Wait, count me in." Then, he said: "Erfat, let's move the table now, and let Brother Yu drill in advance." He's going to lose anyway. ”

"Okay." Li Dan was about to move the table.

"Wait, let's talk about it after the gamble, maybe who's going to lose?!" Li Su said.

Li Dan asked, "What gift are you going to give to Lord Wei?" ”

"A valuable gift for sure." Li Su said.

After dinner, the three evils came to Wei Zheng's house.

Wei Zheng is an upright person, he is open-minded, and he never cares about anything. Therefore, he didn't care what King Liang and others would think of him when they visited him.

When he saw Li Su and the others, he said: "Your Royal Highness King Liang, this is the first time you have come to my humble house, I don't know what to say?" If you want to say thank you, then you don't have to, the minister is just talking about things. ”

Li Su said: "We all know Lord Wei's personality. We are here to ask you something. However, I would like to say thank you.

Today, you have spoken up and corrected the unhealthy tendencies in the court. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to you. After speaking, he hugged his fist to Wei Zheng and gave a salute.

Wei Zheng said: "Okay, the minister has it." Do you have something to say, please? ”

Li Su said: "New varieties of grain have their own growth laws, and they cannot be generalized. Therefore, we should not see that the grain has a high yield and promote what kind of food, but should be promoted in different regions according to their growth characteristics.

Moreover, the experience of grain planting should be gradually familiarized with and mastered, and this is also a meticulous work.

You know the temper of my father, who is determined to create an unprecedented era of prosperity, and is inevitably in a hurry. Therefore, when you are in due time, you should still give him a reminder and don't be hot-headed and rush to the top. ”

Wei Zheng has been following Li Shimin for 7 years and knows his temperament very well. This emperor of the Tang Dynasty is wise and martial, and he has a lot of advantages, but he also has a problem of great success.

Wei Zheng believes that when Li Shimin sees the output of new varieties of grain, his brain is definitely hot, and he wants to beat it. He said: "Your Royal Highness King Liang, you have a point, this matter is to attract attention. Do you have any relevant materials, but you should study them. ”

They talked about the food problem for a while, and Li Su said: "You haven't seen the sweet potato crop, the sweet potato I planted in advance in the greenhouse is now ripe, and I will bring it to you today." ”

Du He took out a bag and took out two pieces of raw sweet potatoes from it.

Wei Zheng took it and asked, "This thing grows bigger than potatoes, is the yield higher than potatoes?" ”

Li Su said: "That's not it. However, it is also a high-yield food. The economic value is also inferior to that of potatoes, but a small amount of cultivation is also a supplement to food. ”

With that, he motioned to Du Ho and took out another roasted sweet potato wrapped in paper from the bag, which was still hot. He said: "Lord Wei, you taste this, the sweet potato is baked, that's it." ”

Wei Zheng took it, broke the sweet potato, tasted it, and said, "Well, it tastes good, good thing." ”

Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the paper wrapped in sweet potatoes on the table, and then, putting down the sweet potato in his hand, he took the crumpled piece of paper and unfolded it to look at it.

Looking at it, he became excited, and his fingers began to draw on the paper.

This scene was already expected by Li Su. He was secretly proud in his heart.

What Li Su gave to Wei Zheng was a calligraphy sticker.

In calligraphy, people usually say that Ou Ti, Yan Ti, Liu Ti, and Zhao Ti are named after the surnames of Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and Zhao Mengfu, a calligrapher in the Yuan Dynasty. They were the four great calligraphers of ancient China.

Among them, Ouyang Xun (557-641), a bachelor of Hongwenguan and a man from Bohai County, and Li Su were in the same era.

Calligraphy was at its peak in the Tang Dynasty, and where it was regular script, it must be called Yu, Ou, Chu, and Yan. Yan Zhenqing is one of the most innovative calligraphers.

Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy was learned by himself, but the inspiration for his change was Zhang Xu of Wu County. Because he can take hundreds of schools of thought and choose freely, he left a large number of books to show his skills. Historian Fan Wenlan said in his writings that "Yan Zhenqing of the Tang Dynasty is the creator of the new book style of the Tang Dynasty". Yan's regular script reflects a prosperous style, and the atmosphere is magnificent; And his line of grass, so that the Song Dynasty Mi Fu also like the book, the reason is that those books are often in a state of extreme grief and indignation in the pen book, people can appreciate the taste from this article. Emotions dissolve in art, art gives birth to souls, and all excellent art in history does not violate this criterion.

Li Su knew that Wei Zheng liked calligraphy, and after research, he thought that Wei Zheng had a bold personality and a broad mind. As the saying goes, "words are like people." "Wei Zheng should like Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy even more. So, on the express mail, Taobao came to one of Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy masterpieces "Dongfang Shuo Portrait Praise". Deliberately wrap sweet potatoes in letters.

Wei Zheng really likes Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy, he has never seen such exquisite and atmospheric calligraphy, (Yan Zhenqing has not yet been born at this time.) thinks that it is better than Ouyang Xun's calligraphy.

Wei Zheng grinned, feeling sorry for this copybook, and he asked, "Who wrote this copybook?" ”

Li Su said: "It was left to me by my master, so let's call it Anonymous." ”

Wei Zheng stared at Li Su with strange eyes, and said in his heart: "Such a good calligraphy, King Liang actually used it to wrap sweet potatoes, what are the three evils." It's a loser, a super loser! Now, Wei Zheng's heart has the urge to go up and beat him up.

Wei Zheng endured it and said, "Your Highness, it's a pity that such a good copybook." As he spoke, he shook his head vigorously and sighed for a long time.

This poster is the sugar-coated cannonball that Li Su prepared to use to attack Wei Zheng, but what he used to hit people this time was the sugar-coated shell (sweet potato) outside!
