Chapter Forty-Three: Half Face
The sun is shining, and the spring finally gradually reveals some coquettish eyebrows, with birds singing and flowers, which makes people feel a kind of lazy comfort.
Chen Jianchen was in class and listened to Mr. Liu, who presided over calligraphy, talk about the essence of strokes.
Old Master Liu is already in the age of sixties, thin, quite tall, wearing a white-washed robe, in good spirits, and his voice is also very rhythmic, and he is depressed:
"Words are like their people, they should be right and not crooked, they should be quite and not scattered, they have backbone, and their spirit is ......"
Chen Jianchen listened very carefully.
Of all these subjects, his favorite was calligraphy. Calligraphy is one of the six arts, one is very important, and the other is in line with Chen Jianchen's interests.
-- However, the so-called "six arts" of this plane are not the six arts that Chen Jianchen remembers, but the "number of books of ritual and music" has been changed to "the number of books of scriptures and pleasures". Replaced the "shooting", that is, the two items of exercise. To put it simply, it is all the rage in literature, and in the eyes of readers, those who practice martial arts are rough people, and they cannot be entered, so they cannot be called art.
This is also a powerful means for the polarization of the imperial court and the rule of the world.
Chen Jianchen is a person who has come over, he can see it clearly, he only looks at it coldly, what to do, how to do it, exercise his body, and do it every day.
In addition, he chose art to learn, most of the "Jing Lide" are lackluster, and most of them are fake and empty; and "number" is not a pediatric for Chen Jianchen, and he almost does not need to pay attention to it, so the rest of the "music books" are the focus.
"Music" includes singing and dancing, poetry, etc., while "calligraphy" actually includes two categories: calligraphy and painting.
Chen Jianchen had a certain interest in calligraphy and painting in his previous life, but he was not good at what he had learned. Moreover, there are also requirements for calligraphy and painting in "Sanli Zhenzhang", Zi said: "Splash ink to show power, and convey God with a pen." In the realm of "Liyan", the core of the divine power and righteousness need to be expressed through pen and ink.
At present, Chen Jianchen has condensed his righteousness, has entered the Tao, and reached the realm of speech, but he is only in the introductory stage, and the road ahead is still far away.
Learning calligraphy and painting, but also being able to practice "Sanli Zhenzhang", killing two birds with one stone.
It's a pity that calligraphy and painting classes are only held once every seven days, which is very small in comparison. This situation is like when I was in high school, there were very few music and physical education textbooks, and they were often occupied and "self-studied".
Therefore, whenever he took a calligraphy and painting course, Chen Jianchen listened to the lectures very seriously, and often went to the master's door to ask for advice, and he continued to practice graffiti in his spare time.
He has a good understanding, flexible mind, and hard work, and now he can be regarded as a small achievement in calligraphy and painting, and combined with the insight of his previous life, he began to consciously form his own style of calligraphy and painting.
Learning calligraphy and painting well is a very useful standing skill. If you become famous because of this, you will become a famous person, and you will be surrounded by light, and there are many benefits.
In fact, this is a retreat that Chen Jianchen has prepared for himself.
Pen and ink kung fu, plus "Sanli True Chapter", is a perfect match, seamless, why not?
After the class, everyone got up and left. Wang Fu came to Chen Jianchen's side again and said, "Liuxian, I have time to accompany Brother Yu to the street and buy something." ”
He is now looking forward to the early arrival of March 15 every day, so that he can meet the female students of Qingxue Academy, of course, Nie Xiaoqian is the most attractive pearl among them.
Chen Jianchen said: "Brother Futai, I still have to practice calligraphy, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you." ”
Wang Fu was a little frightened, so he had to ask for leave and leave the hospital.
After lunch, Chen Jianchen stayed in his room to practice calligraphy - what is more pleasant about studying in the academy is that classes are arranged in the morning, and after the afternoon, they are all free time, except that they cannot go out of the academy at will, and all kinds of things can be arranged by themselves. Or get together with friends to talk about the scriptures, or study hard behind closed doors, as long as they don't violate the rules of the school.
At such times, Chen Jianchen was mostly alone.
He has been enrolled in school for a while, but among more than 100 classmates, he seems to be an outsider, a little out of place with others, and the only thing he has to say is Wang Fu.
It's not that Chen Jianchen has a withdrawn personality, but that the talents in his classmates are almost forty or fifty years old, all of them are old-fashioned, and talking to them is very stressful, and it is difficult to find common topics. It's better to stay alone, practice the "Three Lizhen Chapters", or practice calligraphy and painting.
Tuk tuk!
There was a knock on the door, and it seemed to be a little hurried.
Chen Jianchen frowned, put down his pen, opened the door, and saw Wang Fu standing outside with an excited face.
"Liuxian, Liuxian, guess who the foolish brother saw on the street just now?"
Chen Jianchen was dumbfounded, and said, "I'm not an immortal, where can I guess?"
Wang Fu said excitedly: "It's Nie Xiaoqian, the pearl of Nie Zhizhou!"
Chen Jianchen's heart moved, and he said, "You went up to talk to her?"
Wang Fu said frustratedly: "No, she is sitting in a sedan chair, and there are guards guarding her, where does the foolish brother dare to be abrupt." ”
"Then you said you saw someone again?"
Wang Fu perked up and said: "It happened that a gust of wind blew at that time, and the sedan curtain was slightly stirred, and the foolish brother had the opportunity to widen his eyes, although in the end he only saw half of it, and he was already shocked. ”
Thinking of his situation at that time, Chen Jianchen couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Wang Fuzhen said with words: "Liuxian, you haven't seen anyone." Foolish brother dares to guarantee that if you meet her, you will definitely be even more amazed than me, and it is very possible to have tea and dinner without thinking about it. Tsk, delicate and incomparable, straight as the person in the painting. ”
Chen Jianchen shook his head when he heard this, he didn't doubt that Nie Xiaoqian's appearance was matchless. It's just a change in time and space, and the characters are different, but it's difficult to clarify each other's identities.
As he spoke, Wang Fu's expression suddenly darkened, and he said, "But after ten days, I'm afraid that I won't even have a chance to talk to her." ”
Chen Jianchen asked: "Why? Could it be that she has a big shelf, and there are many rules?"
Wang Fu shook his head: "It's not, but there is already a person around her who protects flowers, but Wu Wencai, the only son of the former Lord Wu of Zhizhou...... Well, Wu Wencai is also a student of our college. It is said that because of something, I took a vacation, and I haven't come to report yet, and I believe it will come in the next two days. ”
Chen Jianchen raised his eyebrows and remained silent.
Wang Fu continued: "Do you think, the Nie and Wu families are both wealthy families in the imperial court today, if we suddenly offend their son-in-law, wouldn't we kill ourselves? The foolish brother also heard that Wu Gongzi is domineering by nature, but he is not a good-looking son. When he comes to class, you should also pay attention to one or two when you stay in the immortals. ”
Chen Jianchen said indifferently: "Brother Xie Futai reminded, hehe, you have always known that I generally don't provoke others." ”
Wang Fu nodded when he heard this--Indeed, during his time in the academy, Chen Jianchen was always in the appearance of An An, concentrating on studying hard, not asking about foreign affairs, and never had conflicts with others.
Of course, Wang Fu didn't know that behind Chen Jianchen's sentence, there was a subtext: I don't mess with people, but I don't like others to mess with me!
