Chapter 103: The Name of a Talented Woman

An Xuehan subconsciously blamed all this on Xun Zhi, if it weren't for Xun Zhi's secret calculations, she wouldn't be so unlucky, and it wouldn't be smooth anywhere!

"Mr. Duan is really the first Hongru of the Great Wei Dynasty, this calligraphy is vigorous and powerful, and the pen is easy to use, it is really the best grade!" An Xuehan squeezed herself to the front of the crowd and stammered.

The people around me who watched calligraphy were all Confucian scholars with some talents, and they were quite disgusted by this kind of flattery.

Duan Hong ignored An Xuehan again as if he hadn't heard it.

An Xuehan twisted her eyebrows, a little unhappy, and glanced at Xun Xuan with a vicious face, the other party did not laugh at her because of her embarrassment, but had a calm expression.

But the more Xun Xuan is like this, the more An Xuehan hates her, she is clearly a femme fatale, what kind of kindness and simplicity is pretending?

"If you talk about this calligraphy, a few years ago, the little woman accidentally saw the authentic handwriting of Mr. Song Yue, a master of Jiangnan, from her father, which is really amazing." An Xuehan spoke again, quite showing off.

After Duan Hong heard it this time, he really had a slight reaction, and he actually raised his eyes and glanced at An Xuehan lightly.

An Xuehan herself finally made Duan Hong look at him differently, and couldn't help but feel a touch of joy in her heart, and then glanced at Xun Xuan as if she was showing off, Xun Xuan still looked like she didn't care about herself.

An Xuehan snorted coldly secretly, Xun Xuan, you look at it, Miss Ben should be the talented girl that everyone admires.

"The little woman dared to compare the calligraphy of Mr. Duan Hong and Mr. Song Yue, and found that Mr. Duan Hong's calligraphy was more sophisticated, and he really deserved the title of the first national player of the Great Wei." An Xuehan's sycophant is more and more blatant.

After Duan Hong heard this, he didn't say a word, but threw the brush in his hand on the table, the mustache on his mouth stood up angrily, and he said angrily: "Ignorant junior! Song Yue is an old man and senior brother, how can you be qualified to judge this hairy girl who doesn't know anything! ”

An Xuehan was stunned, she never expected that Song Yue would be Duan Hong's senior brother, this fart was slapped on the horse's leg, and everyone looked at An Xuehan with a sneer.

"Whose lady is this? So ignorant! Mr. Song Yue and Mr. Duan Hong's calligraphy has its own merits, and even the master who knows the most about calligraphy has not judged the winner for the two of them for so many years, what do you know as a junior? How dare you come out and insult Mr. Song Yue? A scholar standing beside Duan Hong couldn't help but sneer.

An Xuehan's face turned pale when she heard this, and then she said worriedly: "It's me who is ignorant, I really don't know that Mr. Song Yue will be Mr. Duan Hong's senior brother, it is the fault of the little woman, please forgive Mr. Duan!" ”

Duan Hong snorted coldly, and said to the scholar in a cold voice: "Ignorant junior, the old man doesn't want to see her again, let her go aside!" ”

"Yes!" The scholar responded, and hurriedly pushed An Xuehan to the side, "Let's go, when our husband writes, he doesn't like outsiders talking nonsense next to him!" ”

"Hey...... Mr. Duan, I haven't finished my words yet! Mr. Duan, I really like your calligraphy to say that! An Xuehan was pushed all the way to the door by the scholar, and she was not allowed to approach Duan Hong's desk at all.

An Xuehan wanted to try to get closer, but was directly scolded by the scholar: "Why are you so cheeky this woman?" My husband has said that he doesn't want to see you! Hurry up and go, don't affect Mr. Yaxing! ”

"You...... Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that? An Xuehan yelled angrily.

The scholar stuck his waist and looked fearless: "My husband said that I don't have to be polite to any woman who wants to get close to him and have a relationship with him today!" ”

A woman who wants to rely on the poetry club to get a place in Fengming Academy is definitely not very strong in her family background, otherwise it is impossible to even get the admission qualification of Fengming Academy.

This point was already clear in Duan Hong's heart.

Duan Hong has been in the officialdom for many years, although he has a bit of a sour atmosphere, but in the end he is a person with active thinking, and he is by no means as pedantic as he seems on the surface.

Seeing that the scholar reacted so strongly, An Xuehan didn't want to stay here anymore, so as not to be seen as a joke again, glared at Xun Xuan viciously, and then left reluctantly.

Xun Xuan saw An Xuehan leaving, and a touch of imperceptible coldness flashed over her face, and then she turned around and walked to the side of a white-haired old man beside Duan Hong, respectfully owed, and said, "Fang is my second cousin's reckless words, please don't mind Mr. Song Yue!" ”

As soon as Xun Xuan's words came out, the many spectators around Duan Hong were startled at first, looked at Xun Xuan in surprise, and then looked at the white-haired old man, what...... This person is the world-famous calligrapher Song Yue?

I saw that the old man was stunned for a moment, and then a surprised smile appeared on his face: "Interesting, really interesting, you little girl has a bit of eyesight, and she actually recognized me." ”

As soon as everyone saw the old man admit it, their jaws were about to fall in surprise, and after a long time, this person who had stood among them for a long time was actually Mr. Song Yue himself?

Duan Hong finally put down the brush in his hand at this time, glanced at Xun Xuan, and asked, "The woman who was blown away just now is your second cousin?" ”

Xun Xuan smiled and nodded, "Not bad." ”

Duan Hong narrowed his eyes and asked again, "Could it be that you are the youngest daughter of the Xun family, Miss Xun Zhi?" ”

"Exactly." Xun Xuan said.

Duan Hong rubbed the beard on his chin and sighed, "No wonder it's ......"

"What's the wonder?" Xun Xuan asked puzzled.

"The daughters of the Xun family are terrible!" Duan Hong involuntarily shrunk his neck, and there was a hint of jealousy in his eyes.

Xun Xuan looked at Duan Hong with some amusement, he is an old man who is over half a hundred years old, how can he be afraid of her, a teenage girl?

"Mr. Duan Hong, don't joke with me." Xun Xuan then said humbly.

"Who was kidding you? The Empress Dowager also recognized my senior brother Song Yue at a glance. Duan Hong said.

"Oh yes, your sister recognized me at a glance back then, and it was also at this poetry meeting at that time." Song Yue hurriedly explained.

Xun Xuan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckled, every year at the Chongyang Poetry Meeting, Song Yue would specially rush to Beijing to find Duan Hong to learn calligraphy, today's scene is exactly the same as the poetry meeting a few years ago, but Song Yue and Duan Hong look a little older than back then.

"Girl, tell me quickly, how did you recognize me?" Song Yue couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and asked.

Xun Xuan smiled and explained unhurriedly.

"Words are like their own people, Ah Zhi has also had the honor to copy Mr. Song's calligraphy, the old gentleman is open-minded by nature, and the handwriting is also full of free and easy, and Mr. Song is about the same age as Mr. Duan, and the two of you are so close, there is a sense of sympathy, if Ah Zhi can't even see Mr. Song Yue himself, it will be in vain to study Mr. Song Yue's true works for many years."

As soon as Xun Xuan finished speaking, Song Yue couldn't help laughing: "You girl is really as smart as the Empress Dowager back then, and she actually said exactly the same thing as her!" You girl will have a bright future in the future! ”

Xun Xuan lowered her head and smiled.

Duan Hong took advantage of Xun Xuan and Song Yue to talk, and had been secretly observing Xun Xuan, after all, after so many years of officialdom, Duan Hong's vigilance was much stronger than Song Yue's.

"Since you said that you have copied Song Yue's true handwriting for many years, why don't you Miss Xun also write a calligraphy and teach my senior brother to give you some advice, which can be regarded as your blessing." Duan Hong deliberately made trouble.

Xun Xuan smiled indifferently and bowed slightly: "Performing skills in front of the two old gentlemen, it is really Xun Zhi who is beyond her strength, but since it is what Mr. Duan meant, the little woman naturally does not dare to refuse." ”

Xun Xuan is good at calligraphy, and has studied the calligraphy of contemporary Hongru, so it is naturally not difficult to imitate Song Yue's handwriting.

While speaking, Xun Xuan had already lifted the pen, and the brush with strength fell magnificently on the rice paper, quite a person's style, and the handwriting was done in one go, showing the free and easy display in Song Yue's calligraphy.

When a stroke fell, a few big characters of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing fell elegantly on the paper.

After someone around looked at it, they couldn't help but laugh: "This character is completely different from Mr. Song Yue's font, and it is said that he has copied Mr. Song's font for many years, isn't this fooling people?" ”

"That's it, this is not Mr. Song Yue's font style at all."

Just when the people around them couldn't wait to come to a conclusion, Song Yue and Duan Hong were silent at the same time.

After a while, Song Yue couldn't help but sigh at first: "Yes, the girl's font is obviously already in its own right, with a unique style." ”

Duan Hong also nodded appreciatively: "And if you look at this word carefully, it is similar to Senior Brother's style, but Miss Xun is smart, and she has added her own innovation on the basis of Senior Brother." That's what made her own style. ”

For a while, the two calligraphy masters praised it like this, and everyone around looked at Xun Xuan with admiration, this Miss Xun will definitely become famous after today, and I am afraid that the reputation of the first talented woman in Beijing will change hands in the future.

"Thank you for the praise of the two gentlemen, the little woman's calligraphy is so stretched, it really makes the two gentlemen smile, if there is any deficiency, the two gentlemen may wish to give more advice." Xun Xuan's face did not have the slightest pride, but was full of humility.

"Since you really want to study, when you have the opportunity to enter Fengming Academy in the future, you will come to find the old man, and the old man will definitely teach him." Although Song Yue is not an official in the court, he has a heart to educate his children, and in addition to traveling in the mountains and rivers on weekdays, he will also mix in the major academies of the Great Wei Dynasty and do some work as a teacher to make a living.

"Xun Zhi will live up to Mr. expectations!" Xun Xuan said with a smile.

Duan Hong saw that Xun Xuan was so young, but he was so smart and clever, and he was also very talented, so he fell in love with talents, and his tone in the face of Xun Xuan eased a lot: "You came to me this time, is there anything else?" ”

Duan Hong guessed that this Xun Zhi had wasted so much effort to make a familiar face in front of him, not just to say what he didn't have.
