Chapter 22: [Retribution for Pirates]

"Fang Qing, it's so early!" Li Shimin walked into the Liangyi Hall and saw Fang Xuanling in a purple official uniform.

Fang Xuanling saluted: "Xuanling has seen the emperor. ”

After saluting, he said, "The minister has just arrived." He saw Li Shimin holding a word in his hand, and when he came in just now, he was still reading it carefully, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "I don't know which prince and princess's homework satisfied the emperor?" ”

Li Shimin smiled, handed the paper in his hand to Fang Xuanling, and said, "Xuanling, look at it, I can't guess what this word is written with." ”

The words in his hand are the homework handed over by Li Chengqian, Li Shimin felt a little guilty this morning because of what happened last night, so he went to the Lizheng Palace early, and the queen handed over his son's homework to him. He walked all the way, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of what kind of trick the soulless son used to write this homework.

Fang Xuanling took a look and said: "This word is similar to the words written by the Zhenguan pen offered by Princess Hepu yesterday, the brush word is written with the light and heavy strokes of the word, and the Zhenguan pen and this word, it is a means of changing the stroke line, there is the shadow of the brush word, but it is simple to the brush word!" ”

He also sniffed it with his nose and said suspiciously: "This thing has a smell of fire, as if I have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while!" ”

Li Shimin listened to it and took it over and sniffed it.

It's a pity that one of them is the number one person in the country, and the other is the prime minister of the country, and they care about national affairs on weekdays, and they have very little contact with charcoal, and now it is summer, unlike in winter, they have to burn charcoal for heating, so even if they smell a smell of charcoal, they can't remember charcoal.

Just when both the monarch and the minister were confused, a guard walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the King of Jin asks to see you." ”

"Pheasant slave?" Li Shimin was surprised, "He doesn't go to Hongwen Hall to study, what is he doing here?" ”

"Let him in." Li Shimin ordered to go down.

Zhengtai Li Zhi walked in from the outside like a little adult, and saluted the two elders: "Zhi has seen my father and uncle." ”

"The pheasant slave doesn't go to Hongwen Hall, what's the matter here?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Zhi: "There is an invention in the rule, and I am here to dedicate it to my father." ”

He handed a piece of paper written on charcoal to Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling glanced at it beside him, his eyes lit up, and asked, "This is written by His Royal Highness the King of Jin?" ”

"Yes." Li Zhi said shamelessly, "This was accidentally discovered by me when I was playing with my child." ”

"I wonder what His Highness wrote it in?" Fang Xuanling asked.

Li Zhi was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out two sections of charcoal from his arms, offered them, and said: "When Zhi and his children were graffiti with charcoal on the wall, they found that this thing can be written, and it can be written quickly!" ”

When Fang Xuanling saw the charcoal, he suddenly realized that this simple thing was ignored! "If the charcoal is made into a pen, it will have the same contribution as the Zhenguan pen offered by Princess Hepu!"

Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this: "Zhenguan pen? Then he saw a quill pen on Li Shimin's table, didn't he see the eldest brother holding a writing a few days ago, and then thought of Li Shu holding a wisp of flowers and birds to show off yesterday, oh understood!

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin can make two copies, but he has a heart." Fang Xuanling said again.

Li Zhi was stunned again, in duplicate?

He looked at his father, only to find that his father's face was a little weird, there was a piece of paper on his desk, the words on it were very familiar, wasn't it the hard pen calligraphy he just brought up, but it was not right, his own one was in the hand of Fang Xiang!

Li Zhi knew that the hard pen calligraphy he brought was from the queen's small hall yesterday. Last night, he tried to write with charcoal, but the writing was miserable, so when he came to Li Shimin today, he had to take the hand written by Li Chengqian. Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian later made up another one, and they collided together today.

His face turned pale at the thought of this.

Li Shimin stared at Li Zhi for a while, and said in a steady voice: "The pheasant slave invented this thing, which can be used by the scholars of the Hanmen, and the father will reward you with a hundred birds and jade pendants, and the Chengqian will teach meritorious, and enjoy a night pearl." ”

Li Zhi understood in his heart.

Li Shimin's words changed, "Although the pheasant slave found a charcoal pen, the calligraphy cannot be slackened, so my father ordered you to copy the Tao Te Ching twice." In the same way, you go back and tell your seventeenth sister Shu'er, and copy it twice. ”

What else does Li Zhi have to say, his father did not publicize his family ugliness in front of Fang Xuanling, and it was good that he didn't scold him so bloody. Let's run.

Fang Xuanling saw that the emperor rewarded Li Zhi and punished him, which was very strange, and then thought that he had rewarded the prince inexplicably, he understood a little, but he knew that he had to pretend not to understand.

………………

"Master, what are you painting?" Su Mi asked strangely.

Li Chengqian didn't look up, and continued to bury his head in circles: "Punctuation!" ”

"Punctuation?" Su Mi looked at him drawing circles one by one on the "Thousand Character Text", and said with some embarrassment: "If the master knows that you take the Thousand Character Text to scribble, I am afraid that I will ......."

"It's because the publishing house is too unconscionable and doesn't punctuate, right?" Li Chengqian raised his head with a black line, "I'm not calling it graffiti, I'm cutting off a sentence." You see, although this "Thousand Character Text" is four characters and one line, it is easier to recognize on the first page, and on the second page, the first word is the previous page, and on the third page, there are three words from the previous page, and on the fourth page, I don't know. ”

"This can't be helped, you have to read it by heart, keep it in mind, and naturally you will know how to read it at a glance." Su Mi said.

Hearing her say this, Li Chengqian looked at her a little differently, and what she meant seemed to be that she had memorized the thousand-character text backwards and remembered it badly!

"How do you pronounce the twentieth sentence?"

"The emperor of the birds, the first writing, is the clothes ......"

Li Chengqian gasped and hurriedly stopped her, otherwise it would be too shocking.

"Then when you read the thousand-character essay at that time, how much did you read to have such a ability?"

Su Mi's face was slightly red, and she seemed to be a little ashamed to speak: "When the concubine first entered school, she read it for three months, and it took her all to finish reading and reciting it. ”

So that the mind is balanced! Li Chengqian asked: "Then pointing to this page at that time, can you accurately break the sentence?" ”

Su Mi thought for a moment, and finally shook his head.

"Then my punctuation will work, you can know how to break the sentence there on which page you turn to, and I, a beginner, can read it as accurately as you, an old student who knows it by heart, don't you say it's very convenient?"

Su Mi's eyes lit up and nodded.

"Then you still say I'm graffiti?" Li Chengqian snorted, "I was wronged just now, did you want to eat the family law?" ”

"Master, the concubine is wrong...... Su Mi saw Li Chengqian's Rulai Divine Palm, and hurriedly said: "Don't ......"

Just when Li Chengqian was about to show his might, the voice of King Kong Long came from outside: "What is the punctuation that Your Highness said?" ”

Damn, this Kong Dragon King was eavesdropping outside just now!

Su Mi saw Kong Longwang coming in, and hurriedly flashed to the side, she was afraid that her man would give her regardless of the occasion, but fortunately, Li Chengqian gritted his teeth at this time, and said to Kong Longwang: "Master, students have some difficulty reading "Thousand Character Text", so they use punctuation as a sentence to make it easier to read and remember. ”

King Kong Long walked in front of Li Chengqian, picked up the book he had drawn circles, looked at it a few times, and said, "This punctuation looks staggered, how is it used?" ”

There are two types of commas and periods used in the "Thousand Character Essay".

Li Chengqian pointed to them and explained, and then said: "When students feel that the sentence wants to express feelings, they can use question marks, exclamation marks, and ellipses; To distinguish between speaking, colons, double quotation marks can be used; Semicolons, tonnes, book titles, parentheses, ...... other functions," he said as he wrote it down on a piece of paper.

Judging from the reactions of Su Mi and Kong Longwang, Li Chengqian knew that the Tang Dynasty did not have these punctuation marks, and he was afraid that they would make a fuss and ask questions when they saw him using punctuation marks in the future, so he explained it to them at one time.

The more Su Mi listened to it, the more surprised she became, and the eyes that looked at Li Chengqian were full of sparks of worship and love!

Kong Longwang's eyes became brighter and brighter, and when Li Chengqian finished speaking, he picked up the punctuation marks written by Li Chengqian and looked at them for a long time, Li Chengqian heard his increasingly rapid breathing, and knew that he was very excited. After a while, he slowly calmed down.

"Some literati have a habit of leaving half a word of paper empty after writing a sentence; Some people are accustomed to being casual at the end of the sentence, and the prince's punctuation marks are similar to them, but they are more detailed and clearer than them, easy to remember and easy to use. The old man will teach them to the students of Hongbunkan! King Kong Longwang said affirmatively to Li Chengqian's punctuation marks.

This was the first time Li Chengqian had heard King Kong Long say such a pleasant thing, and he smiled on his face.

King Kong Long continued: "But after all, this is a trick, the thousand-character text and the Four Books and Five Classics need to be read by His Highness diligently, and it is the royal way to remember them. ”

Listening to his tone, it seems that the punctuation marks are very disdainful.

However, even Su Mi is familiar with the thousand-character text to the point of reciting it backwards, not to mention the Dragon King Kong, who specializes in education. I am afraid that if Li Chengqian says a word casually, he can immediately say which line of this word is in "A Thousand Words", which line and page of this word is in the Four Books and Five Classics, or other ancient works.

Such a pervert, punctuation marks are superfluous to him, and it is light to show disdain. He also knew that he was responsible for educating the royal children, and he could think of sending punctuation marks to Hongwenkan to teach, which showed that this old guy had a good ability to accept new things and had a good sense of responsibility.

After school at noon, Li Chengqian happily came out of the Chongwen Hall with his wife.

He has no reason to be unhappy, this Royal Academy is good, he has half a day of classes, and he is free in the afternoon, which is so beautiful!

What could be more beautiful than that?

When I think about my previous life, from elementary school to high school, I attended classes all day from Monday to Friday, made up classes on Saturdays, and tutored on Sundays, it was like living in hell!

"Master, what did you do with the "Orchid Pavilion Preface"?" Su Mi stared at the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in Li Chengqian's chest and asked strangely.

Li Chengqian acted like a thief, "Shhh ”
