The day that will really bring everyone together is the Spring Festival a few months later, so today's birthday atmosphere is relatively relaxed.

After Gu Yi's greetings to the children, it was time for the palaces to start offering gifts.

Gu Yuan, the crown prince, who has always been as warm as jade and mellow as wine, took the lead in standing up from his seat first, and the internal officials who were waiting on the side hurriedly bowed their waists and brought over a wooden tray wrapped in red cloth.

Gu Yuan meticulously compiled the salute first, and then said sincerely: "Father, this is the only authentic copy of the book saint Xiao Xiao collected from the people, thinking that it was the birthday of the father, and I hope that my father will accept the son's heart of Akagi." ”

Xiao Xiao, the calligrapher of the previous dynasty, is the most prestigious calligrapher in the south, his real handwriting, said that the value of the city is slightly devalued, that is simply rich can not find a way to buy, because the south of the perennial war, the ancient book is very difficult to preserve, most of the generals are reckless, these precious classics in their eyes are not as good as a war horse, a sharp blade to precious, in the case of no one to protect, the precious classics of the south are basically destroyed in the war, which is why the people in the atrium regard the south as an uncivilized barbarian, because of the lack of classics, the cultural aspects of the south have been stagnant, and even did not form their own style, no wonder it will be looked down upon.

Now that the Liang Kingdom has become a great unification, it has entered a period of peace, and more and more people have begun to realize the importance of retrieving these unique classics, so anyone who is knowledgeable about the goods has luckily obtained some ancient books, which are used as family heirlooms to teach children and grandchildren, inherit family learning, not to mention the authentic works of the former pilgrimage, but only Gu Yuan can get such a gift.

After all, his mother Concubine De is from the He family of Jiangzhou Hao, and the former pilgrim Xiao Xiao is now a person from Jiangzhou, in order to study better when he was young, he went to Jiangzhou in person, and the disciples worshiped and read the He family's family study, for several years, and the He family at that time had a very good relationship, and the He family kept a part of his authentic handwriting, which is not surprising, but such a heirloom treasure still cannot be measured by simple money.

In fact, even if it is as his prince, such a precious item will not be given to him by the He family, after all, the change of dynasty, for a family like them with a prosperous literary style, it is normal, why send such a precious original, a lonely, if it is destroyed in the war in the future, wouldn't it be a loss for the whole human race?

If it weren't for Gu Yuan's obsession with Confucianism, and even the love of the ancestors of the He family, he would definitely not be able to take away such a precious authentic work of the sage, and this authentic book actually represents the attitude of the He family.

This is also the difference between the human race in the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent, and even the various ethnic groups in the Canghai Realm, the human race first values cultural inheritance, history, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, and even all kinds of things left by predecessors, these can be used to study, the antiquities that can be admired are the most valuable, and the spirit and earth tribes of the East Road, but take some glowing stones as rare treasures, and do not pay attention to the legacy of their ancestors, it is really ridiculous.

The Di clan doesn't even have a basic historical concept, and most of them are passed down by word of mouth, like myths and stories, which is not helpful for understanding the origin of the Di clan.

Having said that, when I heard that it was the true work of the sage, of course an all-round emperor like Gu Yi was good at this, and it was naturally Longyan Dayue at the moment, and he was a little eager to lift the red cloth, and just wanted to reach out and pick up an antique scroll on the tray, I don't know what I remembered, and quickly retracted my hand, first asked the next Han Mink Temple to let my subordinates bring some hot water, first cleaned his hands carefully in person, and then waited for the water to almost dry, and then his eyes showed his eyes, and slowly unfolded the scroll.

Temperament like the great prince Gu Yuan is as calm and good, abide by the rules and etiquette of Xiao Shusheng, he is best at the shape of the square, straight strokes of the regular script, and this pair is the middle-aged feeling to do the "Qujiang Collection", at this time Xiao Xiao, the style has gradually stabilized, the technique is complete, the font on this copybook is dignified and majestic like the emperor king, and graceful and generous like the mother of the world, strong and mighty like a big river rushing, stretching wide places such as the grassland outside the plug, the most serious and upright, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a model.

Throughout the past dynasties of calligraphy, the calligraphy saint Xiao Xiao is Gu Yi's favorite one, which can be regarded as his favorite.

After observing carefully for a long time, the smile on Gu Yi's face became stronger and stronger, and everyone else didn't dare to make a sound, all of them waited quietly.

"Okay, this word! magnificent, just and mighty, good! It really lives up to the name of the book saint!" Gu Yi finished exclaiming loudly, at this time, he was not like an emperor who sat on the rivers and mountains of Liuzhou, but like a child who had won a treasure, he carefully put the scroll on the tray, and covered it with a red cloth, and then instructed his subordinates, "Put it in the treasure pavilion and frame it well, remember, you must be careful, if you break a little, I will ask you!"

The subordinates were all startled, and their hands holding the tray were a little weak, but they still had to promise: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

The royal family naturally has a special place to place treasures, after all, many things such as calligraphy, calligraphy and painting are very susceptible to moisture and mildew, and must be placed in a dry environment to store, and some rare treasures are to be stored in a special place alone, so there is a place called the Treasure Pavilion in the palace, which is specially used to place these priceless treasures.

Gu Yi loves this calligraphy so much, and would rather place it in the Treasure Pavilion and other leisure times than in the imperial study where it is more convenient to watch, which shows that he attaches great importance to and cherishes it.

After the order, Gu Yi praised Gu Yuan: "Very good, very good, Yuan'er, you have a heart, the jade Ruyi in my study will be given to you, plus ten buckets of pearls, and eight new brocade silks from Yongzhou." ”

With a smile on his face, Gu Yuan finished the salute meticulously as usual, and then replied happily: "Thank you, father!"

This prince is a humble gentleman, the temperament is not good, it is a little simple, the temper is very good, there is no heart, happy and unhappy are hung on the face, can be rewarded by the father, naturally extremely happy, and the emperor's reward, has always been heavy 'affection' and light 'courtesy', the symbolism is more than the practical meaning, these things are naturally not as valuable as the true works of the book, but this is the jade Ruyi that is often played by the emperor in the imperial study, and the value is different.

After the reward, it will naturally be sent to his mansion by the subordinates in the palace, and after Gu Yuan finished offering the treasure, he naturally sat down, Gu Cang also got up from his seat at this time, and a subordinate also walked up with a wooden tray.

"It's a coincidence, the eldest brother sent a copy, and the son sent a copy, but the true handwriting of the former pilgrimage is too difficult to find, and the son can't find it, this is a book post written by the son himself sincerely, and the cheekiness is used to congratulate his father on his birthday, please see it. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a subtle smile appeared on the faces of Gu Li on the left and Gu Hai across the body.

Are you comparing yourself to the previous pilgrimage saints?

The two who thought they had seized the opportunity were naturally going to make a statement.

Gu Li was just drinking the tea on the table with a faint smile, but Gu Hai, who couldn't bear it on the other side, couldn't wait to speak: "Second brother, this is your mistake, the birthday of the father, as a son, you naturally have to prepare gifts carefully, the eldest brother still tried his best to find the true works of the book that the emperor loved, do you just use what you wrote to fool the emperor?"

Gu Yi, who was on the main seat, saw this scene and frowned slightly, but after all, he still didn't open his mouth to scold this headache-making fourth son.

There are some things that I didn't feel when I was in it, and now that I have become a father, I can understand why the majestic, almost murderous father who swept all over the world and killed him couldn't even eat because of a little fight between his children.

However, Gu Cang himself responded generously: "Father's birthday, love is not a gift, the heart is here, more important than anything else, the heart is not enough, no matter how good the gift is, it is useless, if you want to let the gift be valuable or not to determine whether the giver is attentive, the people in the poor family may only be able to give their father a pair of straw sandals, a winter coat, but their intentions are not sincere? Yi Zhifeng, not to mention that if my gift is more valuable than my eldest brother's, wouldn't it be a broken rule? The eldest brother is the eldest brother after all, and the younger brother should not be exceeded. ”

Gu Li's hand drinking tea stopped slightly, but he still couldn't help but say nothing, he was not an anxious fool like Gu Hai, not to mention that now that someone was coming forward, why should he be that thankless person.

Gu Hai was speechless when he said this, and he could only say dryly after holding back for a long time: "My father is a noble man of heaven, and the true dragon is the son of heaven, how can I be compared with ordinary people!

The gift he prepared was very luxurious, didn't Gu Cang say that he wanted him to make a fool of himself?

Unexpectedly, Gu Yi on the main seat clapped his hands and laughed: " A good sentence for people to talk about deeds, not bad, not bad, Cang'er, Hai'er, what you said makes sense, our royal family should be against luxury, but the people below are expressions of affection, if the gift is more expensive, it's nothing, let me take a look at Cang'er's calligraphy first, I know Cang'er's literary name, known as the poetry saint of my Liangguo literary circle, a few days ago, the Shen Shilang of the Ministry of Rites also privately asked me for the original manuscript of your poems, no matter what this calligraphy is written, it must be hard to find. ”

When Gu Hai heard this, he just pursed his lips disdainfully, but he was blocked and not seen.

Gu Yi didn't care what the others thought, and directly and slowly unfolded the entire scroll.

At the beginning, there are only three scribbled very scribbled from top to bottom, but the majestic cursive font - "Liang Guoce".
