180. Chapter 180: The Painter

was questioned by Li Shimin, Tang Zhou knew that he couldn't hide anymore. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, he didn't want to be too showy, after all, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing, the two top figures among the civil and military generals, were here, if he was too smart, it would set off how unbearable they were.

But what kind of identity and mind are these two people, and those who can be smarter than them are simply like demons, although they will not be studied, they can receive too much attention, but they put themselves in a more disadvantageous attitude.

But who made him doze off at that time, now Tang Zhou really wants to slap the two of them, why doesn't he grow up so much?

"Actually...... It's not an idea, it's just that after listening to what Lord Changsun and Lord Li said just now, he had a little suggestion, whether it works or not, it depends on the judgment of the saint and the two adults. ”

Seeing Tang Zhou so modest, Li Jing nodded with some satisfaction, he had heard of Tang Zhou during this time, but he had always kept a low profile, so he was not as hot as Cheng Yanjin and Tang Zhou, but since Cheng Yanjin and these people had a good relationship with Tang Zhou, he also faintly felt that Tang Zhou had some ability in his heart.

"It's okay, the Tang family kid will talk about it first."

Tang Zhou bowed his head and said: "Since there are many inappropriateness in carving the monument and erecting the legend, why not find a painter to paint the portraits of these founding heroes of my Tang Dynasty?" ”

Tang Zhou just said this, and he didn't say much later, and as soon as he said this, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing immediately understood that it was not appropriate to engrave a monument and pass it on, but the portrait was completely okay, figure painting in this era was very popular, much more popular than landscape painting, but anyone with an identity would find someone to paint a self-portrait for future generations.

In the Tang Dynasty, it was not taboo to draw a self-portrait, and it was much better than carving a monument.

As soon as Tang Zhou said this, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing immediately made some additions and speculations, for example, when painting self-portraits, their merits were also written on the side of the painting, and if they made more achievements, they could still add more, etc., after they supplemented Tang Zhou's suggestions, they suddenly looked at Tang Zhou.

"Tang family boy, the idea of this portrait is very good, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with what you said about Lingyan Pavilion, right?" The eldest grandson Wuji is familiar with Tang Zhou, and he speaks more casually.

Tang Zhou smiled and said: "Back to the words of the eldest grandson, in fact, there is something to do, after painting a portrait, it is natural to have a place to hang it, and casually scratching does not seem respectful, because the little nephew thinks that my Datang should build an attic to store the portraits of these founding heroes, and even with the development of my Datang, anyone who has made significant contributions to my Datang can hang the portrait in the Lingyan Pavilion, so that my descendants of the Tang Dynasty will admire and worship." ”

As soon as Tang Zhou explained this, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji understood it even more, and couldn't help but want to shout a wonderful sound.

Li Shimin felt that Tang Zhou's idea was really good, and in this way, it would take a large part of the time to build the Lingyan Pavilion, portraits, etc., and it might take several years to complete them all, so that even if he Li Shimin gave those ministers supreme glory, they might not have the opportunity to enjoy it, after all, those who fought the world with themselves back then were already about to enter their twilight years.

"Okay, Tang Aiqing's suggestion is good, just do what you say, and after the riding and archery competition is over, I will discuss it with the ministers and discuss the exact method and the person who will do it."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing and others agreed again and again, after all, the construction of Lingyan Pavilion is not a trivial matter, first of all, you need drawings, you need to choose a usable person from the Ministry of Engineering; And the portrait also has to choose a painter, because it is related to the portrait of the hero, it is absolutely difficult to be competent if the painting skill is not good, and this must be chosen again.

Moreover, the most important thing is that there were many people who followed Li Shimin to fight the world, and there were also many people who made contributions to the Tang Dynasty over the years.

After saying this, Li Shimin looked at Li Jing and said: "Tomorrow the riding and archery competition will begin, Ling Lang is a rare genius in my Tang Dynasty, and I have to watch his performance well tomorrow." ”

Hearing Li Shimin say this, Li Jing hurriedly responded: "The saint praises it, the dog is just lucky, he only won the championship last year, and he can be called a genius there." ”

Li Jing knew that this was Li Shimin's beating of himself, so his words became more and more low-key.

And when he said this, the imperial chef had already brought food to everyone, and only after a few of them had finished eating did they retreat.

Leaving the palace, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing suddenly looked at Tang Zhou and laughed, which made Tang Zhou a little uncomfortable.

"The two adults are ...... What's the matter? Tang Zhou asked tentatively.

Li Jing smiled: "Actually, it's nothing." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji laughed: "If you want to say something, today you said in the morning that "The Romance of the Gods" was written by you?" ”

Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "Yes, I just don't know what the two adults mean?" ”

"The two of us are busy with affairs every day, and we don't have time to go to your Cuiming Building to listen to stories, I wonder if your storyteller can take time out to tell us a few paragraphs every day?"

Li Jing looked at Tang Zhou, with a smile like a spring breeze on his face, Tang Zhou saw this, but he was embarrassed, that Lin Tiezui spent the rest of his time studying the book he gave him in addition to telling stories in Cuiming Building every day, if he went to tell a story to these two, then he still had time to study the book, and how to think about how to tell the next story?

A person's success is not easy to come by, and Lin Tiezui's ability to tell stories vividly is not an innate ability, which is obtained by his unremitting efforts.

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Zhou suddenly became attentive: "It's naturally okay to tell the story to the two adults, but the two adults might as well wait for a few days, wait for Lin Tiezui to fatten the story, and tell you a happy story at one time, what do the two adults think?" ”

When the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing heard it, they immediately felt good, these days they only listen to one or two chapters a day, and every time they hear the highlights, there is no more, this is really distressing, if Lin Tiezui can tell them a good paragraph at a time, this is naturally much happier than listening to that name at a time.

"Okay, you're done." After the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing saw that the matter was done, they didn't say much, and hurriedly rushed to the house, what they said in the imperial study today was too important, and there was no room for a little mistake, so they had to go back and think about how to change it, or if there were other problems they didn't realize.

Of course, what they need to think about most is whose portrait can go to Lingyan Pavilion.

And just when they were thinking like this, a slight smile appeared on the corner of Tang Zhou's mouth, and then walked towards Sinong Temple, tomorrow is the riding and archery competition, Li Hu and Ma Qing want to go and see it, he Tang Zhou has to find a way to take them out.
