Chapter 242: Calligraphy Competition
As soon as this statement came out, the audience was shocked!
Kneel down and kowtow to everyone here, calling grandparents?
This is not only humiliation, it is simply ripping off people's skins.
If he really did this, he would never have the face to look up at people for the rest of his life.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so arrogant, it seems that he is determined to win, and it is right to say that he is the prince after all, and the starting line is higher than that of ordinary talents.
If the writing is brilliant, how can calligraphy be so bad?
Are there still few scholars in the court? Which one is not a literary predecessor to look up to.
In addition, people who are more familiar with Li Hanyue frowned, and said: "If you want to talk about calligraphy, Li Hanyue began to copy the works of calligraphy when he was a child. ”
"This lottery is inevitably too big, no matter who wins or loses, people can't get off the stage, right?"
"What grievances does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have with Li Hanyue? The two of them are more ruthless than the other, this is to play each other to death. ”
didn't hear the discussion of others, Wei Yu looked at Su Yang in a daze.
To say that it was not 100% sure that the prince and Su Gongzi were the same person before, but now, if someone wants to say that he is not, Wei Yuxin doesn't believe it anymore.
On the temple fair, Su Yang and Weijing Orange Bucket Lantern also asked him to call his ancestors as a color head, isn't it the same as now?
It's even more ruthless.
Su Yang smiled, but he didn't care, and he glanced at it inadvertently, but saw that the talented Li Hanyue was looking at him with an angry face, and his right hand holding the folding fan was also trembling slightly.
"Why do you kid look so hateful, are you jealous that I am more handsome than you?" Su Yang touched his chin in confusion and said, winked at Li Hanyue, and smiled even more weirdly.
Li Hanyue gritted his teeth, Su Yang had already talked about this field, and he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
But this is really not a trivial matter, if you want the prince to kneel down and call everyone here grandparents, it is not as simple as humiliation, where is your majesty placed?
Li Hanyue could even imagine the picture of his whole family being exterminated by the Nine Clans.
Dengshi's heart trembled, Li Hanyue began to hesitate, and was in a dilemma at the moment.
It's definitely not okay to call someone grandparents by yourself, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is even worse, what should I do now?
Li Hanyue suddenly regretted a little, why do you have to say something about the winner, how about the loser, isn't it just a serious comparison of calligraphy.
He is now neither losing nor winning, and his face is dark in distress.
"Lady, let's talk about the rules of the competition, I think that Li Gongzi seems to have been stupid. Su Yang looked at Wei Yuxin.
Wei Yuxin sighed lightly, she shouldn't have entered the Drunken Flower Pavilion as a girl, but His Royal Highness should be so blatant, which really made her embarrassed.
But she still said loudly: "The rules of the competition are very simple, within the time limit of a stick of incense, two people write a pair of calligraphy and give it to everyone present to watch, the style and genre of the book are not limited, and there is no name at the end of the calligraphy." The writing process should be segregated and judged fairly. ”
Su Yang scratched his head, this Wei Yuxin really doesn't put any water on himself, and he is truly fair and just.
If it was known which one was written by himself, most of the people here would definitely decide that their prince had won if they took into account the bets, but if they didn't know who wrote it, there would be no way to cheat.
I thought so, but Su Yang didn't care, how could he lose?
Fortunately, the Drunken Flower Pavilion is also a gathering place for literati and artists, and there are all kinds of items, and someone immediately volunteered to bring two long cases, and even used a screen to block everyone's sight.
Su Yang and Li Hanyue sat solemnly in front of the long cases on both sides.
After a while, the girls of the Drunken Flower Pavilion came in to send pen, ink, paper and inkstone for each case, Su Yang glanced at it, and the wolf pen, Chengni inkstone, Tong Yanmo, Chen Xuan paper, all of them were study boutiques.
Wei Yuxin and Lin Dao stood in the middle, and at this moment, under the gaze of the former, Lin Dao lit a slender yellow incense in the incense burner, and ordered in a deep voice: "The calligraphy competition has officially begun, please polish the ink and lay the paper." ”
Su Yang exhaled lightly, put a piece of tung smoke ink with black light into the inkstone, and slowly injected the silver thread-like water, and the tung smoke ink immediately fell off the spotted black, and then lifted the grinding stone and grinded it gently, and after a while, a pool of thick ink was already lying quietly in the inkstone.
Su Yang pressed the corner of the rice paper with a paperweight, stroked it with one hand, picked up the wolf brush but hesitated, and was worried about what to write in his heart.
In the past dynasties, the Chinese characters were written beautifully and changeably, and during the Qin Dynasty, the six countries were annexed to unify the characters, and developed to the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
The seal book is divided into big seals, small seals, popular Spring and Autumn Warring States and Qin Dynasty, the strokes are euphemistic and tortuous, the thickness is uniform, the posture is round, giving people a sense of rigidity and softness, hearty and handsome.
Lishu is also known as Han Li, originated in the Qin Dynasty, prevailed in the two Han Dynasty, the writing effect is slightly wide and flat, the horizontal painting is long and the straight painting is short, it is rectangular in shape, pay attention to the 'silkworm head and goose tail', 'a wave and three twists and turns'.
Cursive is a kind of book style produced for the convenience of writing, the structure is simple and provincial, the strokes are continuous, the dragon and snake are flying, there are chapter grass, this grass, wild grass is divided.
Regular script is the most prosperous and popular book style in the Northern and Southern Dynasties today, the penmanship is ancient and clumsy, the style is simple and strict, if Feihong plays the sea, if the dragon plays the phoenix.
Xingshu is a font between regular script and cursive script, which is produced to make up for the slow writing speed of regular script and the difficulty of cursive writing.
'Xing' means 'walking', so it's not scribbled like cursive or upright like regular script. In essence, it is a cursive or cursive italization of regular script. Those with more regular methods than grass methods are called 'line letters', and those with more grass methods than regular methods are called 'line grass'.
The practicality and artistry of the line script are high, while the regular script is a text symbol, which is highly practical and relatively lack of artistry. In contrast, cursive writing is highly artistic, but it is relatively less practical.
Since it is a test of calligraphy, it stands to reason that Su Yang should naturally choose one of regular script and line calligraphy, because the two are not only the usual fonts used in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but also the most important reason, regular script is also the foundation of many calligraphers' fame, and it is naturally the best choice.
Sneaking a glance at Li Hanyue on the left, I saw that he was really using regular script to compose characters, and the next pen flowed without pause, and in a blink of an eye, the rice paper in front of him was covered with rows of large characters, which was very neat and crisp.
Su Yang saw that the yellow incense that was timed was almost half burned, and he knew that he couldn't hesitate too much, so he devoted his mind to the calligraphy in front of him.
After thinking about it slightly, Su Yang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and immediately moved his pen like a fly.
