Chapter 118: I Am a Sorrowful Guest in the World
"Come here every ten days in the future, and the teacher girl will naturally help you open the door here."
Huizong had just entered the door, took off his outer robe, sighed on his hands, and rubbed them.
Master Li stepped forward with a smile, shook Huizong's hands, and helped him warm up.
"It's really cold here, it's not easy for me to get out. Teacher, you have to accompany me. Huizong said lazily, with a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but hold Master Li's soft thorn with his backhand and kiss it on the slender fingertips.
Master Li pulled out his hand and pushed it on Huizong's chest, glanced at him, and said angrily: "What are you messing about, let Chu Langjun see the joke." ”
Chu Feng stood aside, he had already noticed their intimate actions, and at this time, he had already turned his back and pretended to take care of his clothes.
Huizong smiled.
"Chu Langjun sits here, it's too cold outside, just eat something hot to warm up." Master Li smiled and filled a glass of wine, and put down the wine jug again.
"Why don't you pour it for me?" Huizong laughed.
Master Li let out a clear hum in a nasal voice, and put the wine cup in the direction of Huizong, with some angry voice, there was a seductive taste: "Chu Langjun doesn't eat wine, and this cup is naturally poured for a certain drunkard." ”
"Drunkard?" Huizong raised his eyebrows slightly, stepped forward and reached out to hook Master Li's waist, and said with a smile, "Then if I drink too much and do what a drunkard should do, you can blame me." ”
Seeing that the situation in this room had been going to an ambiguous place, Chu Feng couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp, and glanced at Ma Gonggong next to him, seeing that he had already walked out lightly, Chu Feng also hurriedly followed.
When Ma Gonggong saw Chu Feng come out, he couldn't help but smile silently, closed the door with a familiar car, stretched out his hand to beckon Chu Feng, and led him to the next room.
"There is someone waiting outside Ah Lang's door, if you call us over there, let's go over again." Ma Gonggong said with a smile, "My Ah Lang and this teacher girl haven't seen each other for more than half a month, and it is inevitable to continue their lovesickness for a while." ”
When Chu Feng heard this, he smiled shyly.
Ma Gonggong raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Chu Feng, and asked with a smile, "What?" Chu Lang's appearance...... Could it be that a merry genius like Chu Langjun has never opened a meat business? ”
"Uh......" Chu Feng's face couldn't help but blush, and the laughter of some women next door came, making his face even redder.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so innocent Chu Lang." Ma Gonggong covered his sleeves and smiled, "That's it, I won't tease you anymore." I heard that I am also going to get married, why am I shy like a girl's family! I heard that she is the girl of the Fan family, but have you already planned your day? ”
"I just finished changing the eight characters, and I'm afraid I have to wait for the wedding date. Her eldest brother ...... My eldest brother is still in the west, and he said that he would not be back until a few months, so he is not in a hurry. Chu Feng smiled and scratched his head, "How did Gonggong Ma know about this." ”
Ma Gonggong smiled: "Tokyo City is so big, Chu Lang, you are not a nobody, it won't take long for these things to spread...... Your eldest brother also has some meanings, they all rely on the newcomer to set the day, how can there be any reason because he accommodates the newcomer. ”
Chu Feng explained: "This brother has taken good care of her since she was a child, and my future father-in-law seems to have been very busy all the time, so it is probably the eldest brother who is like a father, and he can't come back." Anyway, this kind of thing is not in a hurry. ”
"You really shouldn't rush it." Ma Gonggong's smile was a little strange, "Actually, Chu Lang has such a good future, why did he decide on this family business so early." The key to this Fan family...... Although it can't be said that the family is low, but to be honest, it is indeed not a famous family, and I am afraid that it will not help you much in your career in the future. ”
Hearing this, Chu Feng couldn't help but be slightly stunned, feeling that Gonggong Ma seemed to have something specific, but it was not good to ask directly.
"Hehe, I'm just talking casually, Chu Lang, don't care." Ma Gonggong said with a smile.
Chu Feng naturally cared, but he didn't understand the other party's intentions for a while, so he only responded with a light smile.
The two of them gossiped some more here, and after about two pillars of incense, someone opened the door and called, saying that it was passed on by the nobles, and Chu Feng and the others hurriedly went over.
When I entered the door, I saw that Huizong and Master Li's clothes had been dressed up again. Huizong leaned comfortably on the chair, and Master Li squeezed his shoulders for him in the back, and her face still had a blush after the clouds and rain.
"I only told you half of it just now," Huizong beckoned to Chu Feng, "I will come every ten days in the future, and I will come too, you and I will talk about elegant things such as calligraphy, painting, poetry, etc., it is still very interesting." You don't have to be too restrained here, you and the teacher you have also met are also acquaintances. The Western painting you drew before was very interesting. How are the pigments adjusted? I've got people to prepare some according to what you said earlier, and you draw a little bit for me to see. ”
"Yes." Chu Feng responded.
Later, under the service of several beauties and maidservants, Huizong and Chu Feng studied things about Western oil painting for a long time, and Chu Feng told Huizong about the essence of it one by one, and Huizong pointed out some similarities and differences with Oriental paintings, and the two discussed it, which was also interesting.
Chu Feng was pleasantly surprised to find that Huizong did not have any resistance to Western oil paintings, on the contrary, he was able to look at the overall situation from a very high vantage point, and was very keen to point out the excellent places of oil painting that could be used by me.
Chu Feng couldn't help but admire in his heart, thinking that probably a truly excellent artist must maintain such an inclusive mentality in order to truly climb to his position......
The two talked about oil painting for a long time, and talked all the way about the various schools and brushstrokes that exist in the Central Plains today, and Huizong casually pointed out Chu Feng, and Chu Feng was naturally overjoyed.
Huizong also seemed to be quite interested in chatting, and along the lines of the poem, Huizong asked, "Does Chu Lang have any new works recently?" Whether it's poetry or words, I've only heard old words recently, and it sounds really boring. ”
Chu Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "There is a small poem." ”
"Oh? Write and see. Huizong was interested.
Because I just talked about paintings, I had them in front of my pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Chu Feng thought about it, and simply wrote a small poem about Nalan Xingde.
The remnant snow condenses the cold painting screen, the plum flute has been changed three times, and no one is in the moon.
I am a melancholy guest in the world, I know what is going on with tears in my eyes, and I remember my life in the sound of broken intestines.
Nalan Xingde's words are graceful and melancholy, which is very appropriate in the poetic atmosphere of the two Song dynasties. Now Chu Feng slowly writes in the line of Cai Xiang's "Tao Te Ching", and the beauty and light sentimentality of the paper come to his face, showing a little loneliness and sorrow.
Huizong looked at it and inevitably sighed a few words. His attainments in poetry are not very superb, but he is also very good among the emperors of the past dynasties, after reading it silently a few times, he didn't know what he thought, his eyebrows raised slightly, he glanced at Chu Feng, and said with a smile: "You, a melancholy guest in the world, why are you in tears?" He wrote such a poignant and touching sentence. ”
Chu Feng didn't expect Huizong to ask such a question, and was slightly stunned. Fortunately, his mind turned quickly, and at this time, he directly told the past of his senior brother Fu Lehe, saying how he saw that girl when he was hiding from the wind and snow, but he only had that side, and now he can't see it anymore or something like that.
The worldly things in the middle are naturally omitted, leaving only the simple beauty and sadness.
After that, Master Li's eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he felt something, and his eyes were slightly red, it seems that girls have no defense against this kind of poignant love story.
Huizong couldn't help but sigh, what was interesting was that he had to ask a few more words about Fu Lehe, I heard that he was also a painter in the painting academy, and even achieved the position of waiting for the edict, Huizong couldn't help but feel very interesting.
"The same master and brothers are all admitted to the painting academy, and they are all at such a young age, your master is not simple. Which gentleman is famous? Huizong asked.
"Master's name is not very well-known, but he is just a little famous in Hangzhou." Chu Feng said with a smile, "The name is the word 'Cheng Yuan'. Because Master has been living in seclusion and rarely comes out, there are actually not many people who know Master's name. I've only been studying with Master for half a year, hey......"
"What's wrong?" Seeing Chu Feng sigh suddenly, Huizong raised his eyebrows with interest.
Chu Feng scratched his head and smiled: "I don't dare to say more." If I talk too much, I'm afraid that the master will scold me, and the master is most afraid that his reputation will be revealed. ”
"Oh? Are there any painters who are afraid that their fame will be too high? It's interesting. Huizong became more and more curious, and asked Chu Feng in detail.
Chu Feng told Huizong about Mr. Cheng Yuan's theory of maintaining the purity of art, and Huizong listened to it and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that in this era, there are really people like Lingshi who have the legacy of the Wei and Jin dynasties...... Lingshi is really interesting, if it is such a temperament, I am afraid that I don't want to meet outsiders. If Chu Lang has the opportunity to do so, whether he can take a few paintings of the Lingshi will also let me appreciate it. ”
Chu Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's not that difficult. ”
Huizong bowed his head and said: "You can rest assured of this, I will never do anything superfluous, I have always respected such an old gentleman." By the way, there's something I want to ask you...... Did you stay in Taixue's house for a while a few days ago? ”
Chu Feng was slightly stunned, and didn't understand why Huizong suddenly asked about this matter, so he had to answer truthfully: "It's not in the Taixue Zhaisha, but in the Painting Academy, only next door to the Taixue Zhai, which is very close." Before, an old man came from Hangzhou with his family, and there was no place to live at home, so I went to live in someone else's house for a few days...... How did you know? ”
"I always have a way to know." Huizong smiled slightly, and looked at him left and right, "You are an interesting person, how can you say that you are also a painting student of the painting academy, and the imperial court is rich, why can't anyone in the family live?" And I want to drive you to the fasting house to live? ”
Huizong doesn't smell the fireworks in the world, so how do you know what kind of pattern the official worship is compared with the price of the house in Tokyo City. It's just that this kind of thing can't be said, Chu Feng only spread his hands and laughed at himself: "The capital is expensive rice, and it is not easy to live in a big place." I now live in my husband's house, after all, it's just a borrowed house, so it's not too messy. ”
"Your husband, Lu Wenduan, right?" Huizong Road.
Chu Feng pretended to be slightly surprised: "Noble, you ......"
"Tokyo isn't a big city, so it's not that hard to know something." Huizong smiled slightly, "Lu Wenduan was originally an old minister in the court, and it is also your luck to have such a gentleman." He is also a model of integrity, he has been an official in Beijing for more than 20 years, but the house is only a set of two-entry courtyards, and he is indeed a model for civil officials...... Old Ma, I remember that there was originally an old house in Qingluo Alley, is it empty now? If you can't use it for a while, let Chu Lang live first. ”
"Yes, the old slave will check it out when he goes back." Ma Gonggong hurriedly responded with a smile.
Chu Feng really didn't expect this, and hurriedly shirked it: "Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need it, I ...... it."
"Needless to say, the yard is idle. You are a painter of the Royal Academy of Painting, Lu Wenduan is also an old minister in the court, and you are an old gentleman with a very Wei and Jin style. If you are allowed to be crowded in such a small house, I am afraid that the face of the court will be disgraced. Huizong interrupted Chu Feng's words, "It's decided." Old Ma, if our Chu Langjun is unwilling to move, you can find more people to help him move. Ha ha! ”
Gonggong Ma smiled on the side, and said to Chu Feng: "Chu Langjun, this is also a kind intention of my family's Ah Lang, you don't have to shirk anymore." ”
Chu Feng showed a look of gratitude, bowed deeply to Huizong, and responded: "Then thank you very much!" In the future, if there is a place where I can find Chu Feng, I will definitely saddle before and after the horse. It's just ......"
"Oh? But what? Hearing this sudden turn of events, Huizong became interested.
"It's just ......" Chu Feng scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I really don't have much ability in the lower ranks, I am not as good as a noble person in painting, not as good as a noble person in writing, and I don't even have the strength to serve it...... There seems to be nothing that can help the nobles. ”
As soon as Chu Feng said this, several people in the room laughed.
Huizong patted Chu Feng on the shoulder and said, "Why are you so sincere, aren't you afraid that I will suddenly figure this out and then take back the mansion?" In fact, you don't have to be so arrogant, if you're like this, those mediocre people are really going to hang themselves, haha......"
Huizong smiled, remembered the matter again, and asked, "Yes, I haven't finished asking yet." You were living in the dormitory of the art academy at the time, do you know about the theft that day? I heard that you came forward that night, and the thief fled in shock, but is there such a thing? (To be continued.) )
