Chapter Seventy-Eight: Watching the Painting and Listening to the Wind (3)
"This ...... What kind of brushwork is this? ”
"Not kidding, right? Can such a painting be admitted to the art academy? ”
"Oh my God...... No wonder I heard others say that the official family allowed him to be admitted to the hospital just to pity his suffering. I didn't believe it, but now I ......"
If you trace the history of freehand painting, you can probably explore as far as the Tang Dynasty.
It is said that the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei "has a painting in the poem, there is a poem in the painting", the poetry and painting are good, and invented a "change of hooking method", creating a "light ink, clear brushwork" of the broken ink landscape, is the **** of freehand.
Of course, this is just one of the many claims.
This kind of brushwork has been passed down to five generations, and Xu Xi created the "ink method" to outline flowers and birds, which is a means of combining ink color and light color.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Shi's cousin Wen Tong was famous for his "Ink and Bamboo Drawing", which was another step forward in freehand painting. But the real prosperity of freehand painting was after the Ming Dynasty.
Falling to the Xuanhe generation of the Northern Song Dynasty, freehand painting is not nothing, but it has not been popularized, to put it bluntly, it is more like those avant-garde art after a thousand years, which is not acceptable to most people.
The Song Dynasty was prosperous, and there was a degree of correspondence between the scholars, and the emphasis on literature and light martial arts advocated a kind of elegant and noble style, especially in the Huizong Dynasty, the style of the painting academy was more graceful and beautiful, which can be seen from the paintings of Huizong himself that were circulated in later generations. The taste of the extravagance between the brush and ink is something that few people can paint for thousands of years.
And this kind of brushwork is really different from courtyard painting. One is gorgeous and delicate, the other is rough and wild; A pen rhyme Gong Jing. A straightforward heart; One pays attention to both form and spirit, and the other pursues the intention of writing first. It's a far cry.
Painters of this era. Especially for the painters who have been immersed in courtyard painting for a long time in the Xuanhe Painting Academy, they may still be able to occasionally appreciate the romantic taste of small freehand. But in the face of Chu Feng's almost freehand work, it was somewhat ...... Can't appreciate it anymore.
"This ...... I can only see a few random strokes, and I can't even see the characters clearly, but it's like a three-year-old child's graffiti. ”
"I think it's also the same, I can't understand why such a painting can be admitted, and I don't even talk about half of my painting skills! In front of me, I feel ashamed of him! ”
"It's not a joke, can such a painting really enter the academy? My five-year-old brother's paintings are much better than this! I knew he would come to the exam too! ”
"You've got to figure it out, it's no use just drawing like this. First of all, you have to offer a bitter ploy. Have someone stab you, then find a guard on duty during the exam and pour a pot of tea on your painting! ”
"Hah! I kind of understand why there is such a farce. Presumably, Chu Feng's previous paintings are also like this, just as unsightly. simply put on such a scene together, and spent another quarter of an hour graffiti, and then only excused himself by saying that there was not enough time, so that he ...... Ha! How clever it is! ”
"Then I don't understand, this Chu Feng was in Fanlou that night. Didn't you once draw a picture of a beauty? That "Beauty Picture" also overwhelmed He Junhao and Xiao Ting, why has it become like this now? ”
"Are you kidding? Many people know what happened that night in Fan Lou. At that time, there was no requirement for everyone to paint in plain sight. In other words. Who knows if "Beauty Picture" was made by Chu Feng? In my opinion, it is very likely that he hired someone to write for him, and then pretended to be the author of the "Beauty Picture". ”
"You have a point. Otherwise. Why didn't this Chu Feng choose the character department to participate in the scientific examination, but to apply for the landscape department? It must be to cover up this fact! ”
"Huh. Did he think he was very smart, but he still showed his feet even now! ”
"What eyes are in the sky! But then again. Have you ever heard of that statement, which is about He Junhao? Some people say that it was not He Junhao who wanted to kill Chu Feng that day, but because he broke Chu Feng's lies, so Chu Feng set up a game, invited Jun into the urn, and framed He Junhao. I don't know if it's true or not. ”
"It's hard for anyone to say whether it's true or not, but now everyone can witness what is in front of us. This Chu Feng's painting skills, hehe, everyone has seen it, and I have nothing more to say......"
Similar discussions, from the moment the picture scroll was unveiled, roared, and a mixture of snowflakes poured up from all directions, and the noise was in the dust.
Chu Feng could naturally hear the words in it, and some of them were not clear, and they were also covered up by others who could hear clearly.
Everyone looked at him with a strange gaze, and some of them directly showed a sneering look, especially Bai Ni, the two marquis, who exclaimed in a strange voice of yin and yang.
"My God! Is this really Chu Feng's painting? Could it be a mistake? ”
"What, not wrong? Can such a painting skill also win the first place in Fan Lou? Brother Bai, is it because the vision of you and I is too inferior? I can't see how good this painting is......"
They were loud, after all, they were originally going to make a good show to watch.
Before, everyone's attention was focused on Chu Feng, and he inexplicably created an atmosphere that had been waiting for a long time. It's just that when the curtain of the painting's daughter's house is really uncovered, this sense of disparity is enough to cause greater waves. What's more, there are these two who are fueling the troubles......
In a short moment, the entire Tingfeng Hall turned into a vegetable market, and the words discussed by everyone began to become more and more extreme, from initial surprise to doubt, and then from doubt to anger. As a result, people's gaze at Chu Feng became more and more strange.
Chu Cai, who was standing on the side, looked at the painting, then at the angry crowd, frowned slightly, and did not join the condemnation team.
Xiao Ting's face turned slightly pale, and someone came over to him and said, "Brother Xiao is also deceived by this Chu Feng!" Oh, it's disgusting that such a character appeared among us, and pretended to be very powerful! ”
Xiao Ting did not speak. He suddenly remembered Chu Feng's sentence "Why bother to affect the pond fish", and his heart was slightly confused. I didn't know what to think for a moment.
This painting by Chu Feng ...... Xiao Ting really couldn't understand it. He had also seen the landscapes painted by Chu Feng before. Or even more than once. Although it is not as stunning and glamorous as "Beauty Picture", it is definitely a very good painting, and it is a few points higher than my own talent.
But now the one in front of me is really ...... I don't understand. This kind of painting is so arrogant that I have never seen it before, and I have never even heard of it.
Why is it painted like this? Xiao Ting couldn't understand it at all, even if there was too little time left during the exam, he just had to sketch a rough outline with a little pen. If you're lucky, you'll be able to see the skills and taste of the paintings. Why bother, it's really too ...... Outstanding.
Outstanding is not necessarily good, and the one in front of him is really a little difficult for Xiao Ting to accept.
And Wang Xuezheng is here, he has already seen these paintings, so he will naturally not be shocked again at this time, but for the situation in front of him. As the person with the most status between the scenes, it is impossible for him to let it go.
It's just that Wang Xuezheng glanced at Bai Ni and the two Marquis, and he didn't care very eagerly. He listened to all kinds of discussions in his ears, and waited until this kind of speech became more and more grand and fermented. Only then did he cough lightly, frowned, and reached out to pat the table: "Quiet!" What a system! ”
The people who were close to Wang Xuezheng stopped talking first. And then the silence spread farther and farther away, after a few breaths. The entire lobby finally fell silent, and the wind could be heard again.
"You all grew up reading the books of the sages. There are many discussions here like a shrew scolding the street, don't you feel insulting! ”
Wang Xuezheng's words were a little heavy, and for a while, everyone had to hold their breath and concentrate, not daring to talk more. It's just that he didn't say anything, but he couldn't stop looking at Chu Feng's gaze.
Chu Feng stood in the middle, and he really had a feeling of thorns in his back. The taste that Wanfu was referring to was not pleasant, but fortunately, he was somewhat used to it, so there were not too many emotions coming to his heart.
This habit also starts with what happened to him when he was a child. Teenagers are a very magical existence, they have achieved the real "exclusion of dissent", as long as they find that there are others who are different from everyone, this sense of rejection will rise to the level of action, and they will start to do something very youthful.
Chu Feng's life when he was a child was not fateful, but the path he took was indeed different from that of most children. From the divorce of his parents at the beginning, to the later obsession with Chinese painting Danqing, he was admitted to the art student ...... These choices and behaviors do not seem special to adults, but in the eyes of young people, they are enough to become a reason to target.
It's a kind of rejection for no reason, but it exists from a very young age.
When they are young, children are eager to be like everyone else. When I grew up, I began to urgently pursue my own specialness.
If you look at it alone, this is a kind of inexplicable logic. But it is this logic that affects most people.
Chu Feng was a little special in the eyes of ordinary teenagers. So this kind of special made him bear a lot of cynicism and peculiar gaze.
Maybe it's not like this, but after all, he has experience, so when faced with this situation, he won't be overwhelmed or collapse directly like ordinary people.
Chu Feng just stood there casually, listening to the discussions of these people, thinking about the provocation of the two Marquis Bai Ni, as well as the impatient obstruction of Lord Wang Xuezheng Wang.
He doesn't really understand these struggles and undercurrents, but that doesn't mean he can't understand them.
For Chu Feng, the matter of painting has become very simple, you can't understand it, and I can't help it. But it is obvious that Huizong himself understands, and this is enough.
As long as he can hold Huizong's thigh, no one can move him.
Anyway, Chu Feng is very clear about this.
"Chu Feng, do you have anything to say?"
Hearing that Fengtang had quieted down, Wang Xuezheng sighed slightly, and looked at Chu Feng with some pity in his eyes.
Chu Feng smiled and bowed shallowly: "When commenting, how dare Chu Feng say more." ”
"You draw something like this, do you still want Wang Xuezheng to comment on it? What a shame! ”
An indignant painting student said.
"If you still have a little self-knowledge, get out of the academy quickly, take the initiative to resign, and save us the embarrassment of the academy!" Someone chimed in.
Xiao Ting frowned and bit his lip. He was assessing his status and influence, and if he opened his mouth, how much he could save Chu Feng. Or will he really be like Chu Feng said, he was also affected by the pond fish and dragged into this group of angry quagmires......
But if you ignore it and let it go like this. It is very likely that Chu Feng will really be forced to resign today because of this...... In the face of such a situation, what should I do?
His heart was pounding, and Xiao Ting's mind had already passed too many things in a short period of time. Plans, methods, feasible and possible outcomes for dealing with these matters...... Too many things instinctively wandered in his mind, and suddenly he realized something, Xiao Ting's heart suddenly contracted.
Chu Feng's senior brother Fu Lehe is not here, if he is here, with his official position and influence in the edict, he may be able to save some of the situation. But he's not here...... Why, could it be such a coincidence?
No! What is the coincidence? All of this is an arrangement!
Xiao Ting heard his heart skip two beats, and his complexion began to turn sharply, getting paler and paler.
It's just that on the first day of entering the academy, what they touched was not a simple movement of personnel, but the ...... in the academy Party strife.
His hands and feet became cold and cold in an instant, and Xiao Ting suddenly understood that he couldn't speak at all under such circumstances, and he couldn't do anything.
He looked at Wang Xuezheng who was sitting there, and then at Bai Ni and the two Marquis on the side, and re-sketched the whole situation in his heart, and suddenly understood what it meant to "invite you into the urn".
Xiao Ting didn't have any way, he couldn't do anything. If he tried to help Chu Feng now, then he would inevitably be identified as the one who stood on the opposite side of Wang Xuezheng......
He had long heard of the turbulent dark tide in the academy, but he didn't expect that it had reached such a point.
It's a dead end, and it's a foregone conclusion.
Chu Feng didn't have any way out at all.
Xiao Ting is powerless to change anything, and now, he can't do anything.
He looked at Chu Feng with apologetic eyes across the crowd. He was thinking that in this current situation, it was best for Chu Feng to take the initiative to resign, otherwise the ridicule and accusations he would face would probably be stronger than the storm.
But of course, Chu Feng had no intention of resigning.
Chu Feng smiled and wanted to say something. It's just that before he could speak, he was already preempted by another person......
"Haha! It's so lively. (To be continued.) )
