Chapter 36 Making Pottery and Refining Clay

Zhang Forget heard the words "Henan Yin", looked up at this magnificent mansion, and thought that this was the future general's mansion, no wonder there was a nouveau riche atmosphere. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Henan Yin was He Jin, the brother of Queen He.

He Jin was born as a butcher, and when later generations talked about it, they all said that he killed pigs.

However, Fan Ye's praise at the end of "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: The Biography of He Jin" "(Dou) Wusheng Snake Xiang, (He) Jin from slaughtering sheep" seems to prove that He Jin's family was born to kill sheep.

Whether it is killing pigs or sheep, in short, they are all butchers from humble backgrounds.

If it weren't for a sister who was as beautiful as a fairy, He Jin would not have his current status.

Of course, this sister is not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also has a heart like a poisonous scorpion, in order to compete for favor, a cup of poisonous wine killed Wang Meiren, the biological mother of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Taokang is generous to others, and invites himself to the banquet of Yin Hejin in Henan, which means to promote himself. But he has no friendship with Liu Tao, why does he think about his shallot?

He Jin's attendant glanced at Yan, turned around and opened the door.

The speaker is the attendant who is in charge of conveying and informing, and the guest is responsible for receiving the message, that is, receiving the name post, which is almost equivalent to the reception reception in later generations.

The confessor did not accept the name post this time, so naturally it was for the sake of Liu Tao's face. If Zhang forgot to ask for a meeting, he wouldn't have been able to enter this door at all.

There is a small story in history about the difficulty of entering the door of He Jin's house.

When He Jin first became a general, Taiwei Yang Ci sent his subordinate Kong Rong to send a post to He Jin to congratulate him.

As a result, the confessor didn't bird him at all, and probably humiliated him a few words, Kong Rong regained his name and left in shame. went back and wrote a letter of impeachment against He Jin, and then rolled up and went back to his hometown.

He felt humiliated, and the officials under He Jin also felt humiliated, and suggested that He Jin send someone to hunt down Kong Rong. Fortunately, He Jin was not a fool, he listened to the advice of another guest, treated Kong Rong politely, and took the initiative to recommend Kong Rong to return to the court as an official, and the matter came to an end.

Zhang forgot to think about the past in history, and followed Guo Yan into the He Mansion.

The hall that He Jin used to feast guests was much larger than that of Liang Yi's family, and the guests he entertained were not comparable to Liang Yi in terms of status and fame.

In the hall, there were many dignitaries and children of scholars, as well as some of the generals' subordinates and scribes.

Guo Yan led Zhang Forget to a seat, then stopped caring about him, and went back to serve Liu Tao, the servant of the imperial history.

Liu Taoyao glanced at Zhang Wangyao and nodded slightly.

After the fire at Zhang's house, Guo Yan climbed over the wall to check the fire, and saw that Zhang Forget had dug a trench under the walls of the two courtyards to prevent the fire from spreading to Liu's house, so he told Liu Tao about it.

Liu Tao decided that Zhang Wangnai was a kind-hearted gentleman, so he had the support for him today.

He Jin feasted guests, Sikong Zhang Ji was also present, Liu Tao deliberately sent Yan to invite Zhang Wang, just to show Zhang Ji.

Zhang Wang's mansion in and out of Henan Yin, I personally sent someone to invite him, even if you want to clean him up, please be more restrained, don't make too much trouble, everyone doesn't look good.

Zhang Forget realized Liu Tao's good intentions and couldn't help but be grateful to him.

He walked around, locked on the figure of Henan Yin He Jin, and thought about how to leave a good impression in He Jin's heart, so that he could have an extra protective talisman on his body.

In his previous life, he played the Three Kingdoms game, and He Jin's appearance was all the appearance of a butcher.

In fact, He Jin is not so unbearable, although his body is slightly blessed, but he is generally a majestic and powerful middle-aged man.

His sister is as beautiful as a fairy, she became a queen, and his grandson He Yan is a famous little white face in history, known as "Fu Fan He Lang", and the genes of this family are still good.

He Jin was drinking with an old man with white hair, Zhang Forgot asked the slave and learned that the old man was Zhao Qi, who was the speaker at the time.

Zhao Qi is a famous scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and he is also a long-lived man, who lived to be more than 90 years old and has a great reputation among the scholars.

When Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were fighting for Jizhou, they heard that Zhao Qi was coming, so they both stopped fighting and led their troops to meet them hundreds of miles away.

And Zhao Qi is well-known to later generations, mainly because of his paintings. Zhao Qi, like Cai Wenji's father, Cai Yong, was one of the four great painters of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

It is not easy to directly attract He Jin's attention. It's better to start with Zhao Qi.

Beating someone else in what he is best at is often the best way to get noticed. No matter how good Zhao Qi is, he is only one of the four great painters of the Eastern Han Dynasty, can he compare to Wu Daozi? Is it better than Tang Bohu?

Thinking of this, Zhang Wang waved his hand and called a house slave and asked him to fetch pen, ink, paint, and silk.

The house slave didn't know Zhang Wang, but the people who could come to the mansion to feast and drink were generally either rich or expensive, so he didn't dare to ask more, and after asking He Jin, he went down to prepare.

Although He Jin is vulgar, he likes to be vassal, so there are all kinds of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and blue pigments in the study.

He Jin didn't know why Zhang Forget appeared at his banquet, and thought that he might have been brought in by a guest, so he didn't pay attention to it.

Zhang Forget asked the house slave for pen and ink silk, probably wanting to paint. When you are feasting, poetry, singing and dancing, calligraphy, painting and other elegant things are originally used for fun.

After the house slave took a thing to paint, Zhang forgot to spread the silk on the wine table, splashed ink, and began to paint.

He Jin, this person, at least five or six years long, has the power of the world.

Zhang Wang's painting is to release goodwill to He Jin, and he is going to imitate "Han Xizai's Night Banquet" and make a "He Jin Banquet Picture".

"Han Xizai's Night Banquet" is one of China's top ten famous paintings, which depicts the scene of Han Xizai's night banquet guests.

Zhang Forget didn't have the ability to make famous paintings, but he mastered painting skills that people of this era had never heard of, and he could make people shine by painting casually, so he was quite confident in himself.

The guests mingled and staggered, chanted poems, wandered their heads, shook their heads, danced with their hands, and so on.

Except for a dark, thin man drinking alone on the long table next door, no one noticed that in the corner of the banquet hall, someone was observing their words and deeds and painting them into the painting.

After the house slave took the painting, he stood behind Zhang Forget and waited.

The black and thin dwarf was interested, and he also watched behind Zhang Wang, watching a painting with rigorous composition and gorgeous style slowly coming out, and a pair of eyes couldn't help but widen.

The house slave was even more unbearable, he had no attainment in art, but he felt that the painting was so beautiful that his mouth had never been closed since he opened it.

He forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and trotted directly to report to He Jin.

Zhang Wangze finished painting at this time, got up to look for the toilet, drank too much wine, and drank too much water, so he couldn't let it go.

He Jin drank so much that his eyebrows and beard were wet, and he was laughing, when he heard the house slave come over, he suddenly exclaimed: "What did you say?" That one forgot to draw a masterpiece of the world? ”

This loud shout alarmed all the guests in the hall, and everyone squinted their drunken eyes and asked what was going on.

Others didn't hear what He Jin said clearly, but Zhao Qi, who was drinking next to He Jin, heard it clearly, although he was old, he was competitive, and stood up quite unconvinced.

"Who has such a talent to make a painting that amazes the house slaves, let the old man go and take a look."

As one of the four great painters of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhao Qi naturally has the confidence and capital to comment on other people's paintings.

Only then did the guests learn what had happened, and everyone rushed over drunk, followed the slave, and walked together to the corner where Zhang forgot to paint.

Sikong Zhang Ji heard that the person who painted was Zhang Wang, and he stood up with a gloomy face, but wanted to see what this young man looked like.

The house slave led everyone to the corner, and found that the building was empty in front of the wine case, and suddenly secretly complained. Fortunately, the painting was still on the wine case and had not been taken away, otherwise, his slave would not have been whipped by He Jin.

Zhao Qi didn't care about people, only about painting, he took a few steps forward, came to the wine case, and leaned over to look at the painting where the ink had not yet dried up.

It didn't matter at first glance, the seventy-six-year-old man suddenly seemed to be petrified, and he couldn't move again.

On the painting, the figures are elegant and vivid, the lines are strong and smooth, the colors are bright and elegant, the guests in the painting are sitting, or lying, or drunk, or awake, leisurely and elegant and lively and cheerful, although the staggered and the cups and plates are messy, but it is like a fairyland on earth, and it perfectly and meticulously reflects the leisurely and luxurious banquet scene of the aristocratic class.

"Hey, isn't that the guy who is drinking in the main seat just me?"

He Jin glanced at Zhao Qi behind him, saw his own image, and was overjoyed for a moment.

In the banquet picture, on the main seat of the long case, a majestic and mighty middle-aged man is heroically raising his head and drinking wine. Beside him, a graceful and wealthy old man, smiling and smiling, it was Zhao Qi.

"It's really like a general!"

A subordinate of the general's mansion leaned over and glanced at it, and hurriedly patted his ass: "Look at the majestic demeanor, the angular face, the burly and sturdy body, and the bearing of the smiling prince, you can tell at a glance that it is the general himself." ”

He Jin listened happily in his heart, laughing and getting out of the way, so that others could squeeze in and appreciate his heroic demeanor.

The black and thin dwarf glanced at the side and couldn't help but purse the corners of his lips.

Zhang forgot this guy, obviously beautified He Jin infinitely. He Jin is not ugly, but he is not a powerful man with extraordinary weapons in any case.

The guests crowded over one by one, vying to be the first to see the painting, and the amazement was endless.

The size of the painting is not large, only about one meter, but it depicts a number of nobles with extraordinary status.

That individual character is not only lifelike, but also beautiful, athletic, and graceful, as if it has been modified with a selfie artifact, so that everyone can't help but be happy.

"Wow! Get this painting, when the floating white. ”

Zhao Qi, who had admired the discussion for a long time, finally came to his senses, he slapped his thigh suddenly, snatched a wine jue from the hands of a guest, and drank all the wine in the jue.

The guests also praised Zhao Qi, who was good at painting, and suddenly had no doubts, and praised the painting one by one. I am so handsome and extraordinary in my paintings, and if I praise my paintings, isn't I praising myself?

He Jin squinted his eyes and saw the lower left part of the painting, with two lines of poems written in extremely neat block letters, "Ten thousand gold bottles of fine wine, ten thousand dollars of jade plates", and below the poem, is the inscription: He Jin feasts and drinks.

He Jin read it twice, and suddenly his energy was bright, and he couldn't wait to yell three times to express the ecstasy in his heart.

"The gold bottle is ten thousand wines, and the jade plate is ten thousand dollars." This poem is obviously boasting about the luxury of his family, and the wealth is compelling!

And such a beautiful and wonderful painting praised by everyone was named "He Jin Banquet and Drinking Picture". In this way, won't his own reputation be famous with this painting?

With such a noble thing, who would dare to call himself a vulgar person from now on?
