Chapter 133: Calligraphy and Painting

He killed many people, but the matter was not settled, and the remnants of Wei's family still had to deal with it. The heroes have not been rewarded yet.

Dou Congyi couldn't kill his wife either. This guy was too bad, so he demoted him to Sima of Haozhou and dropped him four or five levels at once.

Then Li Longji was re-elected as King Ping, in charge of internal and external affairs of the stables, and in charge of tens of thousands of cavalry on the left and right sides. Xue Chongxiao was promoted to the King of Jie, and Zhong Shaojing was promoted to the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat, and Liu Youqiu was promoted to the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat, and also promoted many levels, and asked them to participate in government affairs. Then he ordered Ma Sizong to be the General of the Central Secretariat of the Right Jinwu Guard.

This was a grass. On the third day, Princess Taiping met Li Chongmao. The two talked for a while, and Princess Taiping left. No one knew what they had talked about. But Li Chongmao began to issue an order to abdicate the throne to Li Dan, but Li Dan refused to grant it. So he appointed Prince Ping Li Longji as the chief supervisor of the palace and the third rank of the Secretariat, and appointed Prince Song Li Chengqi as the general of the left guard, King Hengyang Li Chengyi as the general of the right guard, King Baling Li Longfan as the general of the left guard, King Pengcheng Li Longye as the general of the right guard, and King Guanglu Shaoqing Sidao Li Wei as the general of the right guard. In other words, in addition to Li Wei, Li Longji and his brothers were all named kings.

Another person, Princess Changning's husband Yang Shenjiao, was demoted to the governor of Bazhou. Wei Sili survived by chance and was demoted to the governor of Songzhou. Another person on Wang Hua's buy order list, Zhao Yanzhao, the confidant of Wei, was demoted to the governor of Jiangzhou. Shortly after Cui Shi recalled the capital, he was demoted to the governor of Huazhou. Li Yong was demoted to the governor of Qinzhou because he was unclear about Wei.

Another person's demotion attracted Wang Hua's attention. Although Xiao Zhizhong was upright, he was demoted to the governor of Xuzhou with his relatives and relatives. This shows that Princess Taiping has not taken action yet. Everything has been led by Li Longji. Therefore, Li Rizhi and Zhong Shaojing were moved to the third rank of the Tongzhongshu Sect again. Zhong Shaojing became the biggest winner this time, faster than the one in crosstalk who was promoted to the Three Poles in a row. One who was in charge of the Imperial Garden became prime minister within a few days. Wang Maozhong ran away because Wu Yanxiu sent someone to arrest him, and hid and did not show up in the past few days. Li Longji did not blame him. He threaded needles and threaded threads in the middle, which played an important role in Li Longji's success, so he became a general.

Liu Youqiu again told Li Chengqi, and Li Longji persuaded: "The King of Xiang was an emperor before, and all the people yearned for it. Now the people's hearts are not yet stable, and the affairs of the royal family and the country are the most important. Why is the King of Xiang still confined to the minority and not ascend the throne as soon as possible?"

Although the overall situation has been decided, the emperor is still Li Chongmao, and these people are not relieved.

Li Longji replied: "The father is indifferent by nature and never takes the world to heart. Even if he ruled the world, he still gave up the throne to others. Besides, he thinks that his son is the son of his father's elder brother?"

Liu Youqiu said again with great interest: "The people's hearts cannot be violated. The King of Prime Minister wants to be single, but what should I do if the Tang Dynasty is in power?"

While the important ministers in the inner hall were discussing the matter, Liu Youqiu and others knelt down again and mentioned the matter. Li Dan did not say anything.

Princess Taiping asked the ministers directly: "Is it okay for the emperor to pass the throne to his uncle?"

Li Chongmao was stunned and thought to himself, when did I have this idea? But he didn't dare to speak.

But after Princess Taiping asked, the ministers understood and said he was right together.

Princess Taiping directly raised Li Chongmao and said, "The hearts of the subjects in the world are all the king of zodiac signs, and this throne does not belong to you."

Only then did Li Dan firmly refuse.

This is to set an example. It is best to give it a few more times before he can be ashamed to sit on the throne. The second is the marriage between Wang Hua and Li Chiying. Their marriage has not been handled yet, so Li Dan dare not sit in this position. Although Wang Hua is in the capital, Li Dan is still very afraid. But therefore, Li Chongmao had no choice but to issue an order to let Li Dan take charge of the government. In fact, he, the emperor, once again, became an empty stand, and his power was transferred from Wei to the hands of the King of Xiang.

So Li Dan appointed Zhong Shaojing as the Secretary of the Central Secretariat.

After hearing this, Wang Hua thought to himself, what awesome, this return has become the reality.

However, this kid was very disgusted by the minister because he had no experience as a minor official and rewarded him at will. But he had made great contributions recently, and no one dared to say it. At this time, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple advised him to submit a letter to resign according to the etiquette and not to be the prime minister. You kid is not the same material. Then he wrote a letter to Li Dan: "Although Zhong Shaojing has made great contributions to the country, he has been a minor official and has no talent and virtue. Now he has been promoted to the position of prime minister at once, and I am afraid that all the people in the world will have more words."

Li Dan also realized that he was not the prime minister, so he changed it to the Minister of Revenue and was then sent to Shuzhou as the governor.

Even the governor of Shuzhou was actually transferred to Zhong Shaojing. But Wang Hua saw the shadow of Princess Taiping in this matter. This time, Zhong Shaojing was promoted and deposed quickly because he hesitated for a while. Li Longji knew, and he knew, but Li Dan didn't know. He thought that the major event started with Zhong Shaojing's house and thought that he was Li Longji's main helper. Li Longji was embarrassed to say it out. But he felt a little unhappy, so he did not protect Zhong Shaojing.

But why Xue Ji spoke, strictly speaking, he was still a member of the Wei Party, but now he has the right to speak because he was conquered by Princess Taiping. However, from the outside, he still thinks that his son married Princess Xianyuan.

As the court changed again, Yao Yuanzhi was the third rank of the Minister of War and the subordinate of the Ministry of War. This was the chief of the Prince of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The old man of the Prince of the Prime Minister was reasonable. Song Zhiwen's brothers Ran Zuyong and other members of the Wei Party who survived by luck, because they were small people, they flattered Wu Wei and were exiled to Lingnan. However, Wei Sili and Xiao Zhizhong were the Minister of the Central Secretariat again, Zhao Yanzhao was the Minister of the Central Secretariat, and Cui Xi was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and they were both in the same affairs. You can see that Princess Taiping's shadow in the court became heavier and heavier.

At the same time, Princess Taiping was added to the ten thousand households, and the sects were each the kings.

But not long after, Cui Xi was dismissed as the Left Chief Secretary of the Shangshu, Zhang Xi was the Governor of Jiangzhou, Xiao Zhizhong was the Governor of Jinzhou, Wei Si was the Governor of Xuzhou, Zhao Yanzhao was the Governor of Songzhou, and Li Jiao was demoted to the Governor of Huaizhou. Song Jing finally got out of the way and became the third rank of the Minister of Personnel of Luozhou, and Cui Riyong was the Governor of Huangmen and the Chief Minister of Political Affairs. Tang Xiujing retired and Zhang Ren was willing to be dismissed as the General of the Left Guard.

It is reasonable that Zhang Xi was demoted. He was the confidant of Wei and would be demoted from the court sooner or later. Tang Xiujing was demoted because he was loyal to Li Xian, not Li Dan, and in order to protect himself, he asked his son to marry the daughter of He Lou, which was also criticized. Zhang Renyuan, as the prime minister, stood by and watched, which was also understandable.

However, after Xiao Zhizhong demoted several people, they moved back and demoted them again, which made people laugh and cry. Fortunately, they had not had time to set off in the capital, otherwise they would have made the court like this on the road, which would have made them dizzy.

It looks incomprehensible outside, but in fact it is Li Longji's counterattack.

However, Princess Taiping was unwilling to be weak, so she pointed her finger at another person, Cui Riyong.

Xue Ji wrote a letter saying: "Cui Ri used people's hearts and thoughts. He used to be a follower of Wusansi and Wei. He was not a loyal minister. He sold his master for honor and was not a righteous man. He had heard that Wang Hua killed the soldiers of Wei. He was shameless in the world, and this person was the most."

Cui Riyong also wrote a letter to explain: "Although I have made great mistakes in the past, I have made great contributions recently, so don't question it. However, Xue Ji entrusts the country's marriage outside and attaches to Zhang Yizhi and Zong Chuke inside. What's the point of not proving it?"

In Wang Hua's words, these two are shameless people, but on the surface, these two people slandered and attacked each other, but in fact, Princess Taiping and Li Long were fighting behind them. Li Dan played Tai Chi and dismissed both of them, referring to Cui Riyong as the chief minister of Yongzhou and Xue Ji as the attendant of the Zuo Sanqi.

Although Li Dan’s Tai Chi is very good, as a minister, this Tai Chi can protect him, but as an emperor, it lacks decisiveness. This also means that a greater battle is coming.

As for another Wang Hua, who made the greatest contribution in this coup, almost no one mentioned it.

It’s not that Li Longji forgot Wang Hua. At this time, Li Longji was still a passionate young man, and his thick and darkness was not very good.

Therefore, Wang Hua was found and said to him: "The Lingxia King that my father had promised was still valid now."

The great contributions made by Wang Hua this time are not enough to be the King of Lingxia.

But Wang Hua looked at Li Longji and King Lingxia sarcastically, but he didn't want it in the northwest, and he still had six or seven million people. This is now, maybe four or five years later, the population will exceed the Tubo and the Turks, becoming the fourth pole in the world (Tang Dynasty, Dashi, Eastern Roman Empire), and at least as close as the Frank Kingdom.

He did not take the official position of the Tang Dynasty seriously, but talked about another thing, he said, "Criminal, you are here just right, I'll talk to you about something."

Now others call Li Longji His Highness, but Wang Hua still calls Li Longji the crown prince. Li Longji also felt very helpless. He sat down and said, "Please say it."

"The court owes the debts from the northwest, so let's forget about the grain and cloth, but I have a request that there are still five million yuan left. I hope the court will pay me all at once this year."

"General Manager Wang, this was signed by the Emperor and you, why did you mention it now?" That was the result of the Wei Party's request to draw troops to Wang. Now that the Wei Party is destroyed, the account should not be turned up. Li Longji was unable to get into trouble, so he had to say again: "Besides, I have seen the economic situation in the northwest. Now the economic situation is good, and you plan to hand it over to the court next year. Why bother the people in other places and enrich the northwest?"

I was unhappy and spoke very politely, but the name I was still called.

No matter what, Li Longji is still very grateful to Wang Hua. If it weren't for Wang Hua, this coup would not have expected success.

Wang Hua replied: "It's not for the northwest, but for the Kalachakus of Jiuzhou. I used up all the money in my hand and still owed a lot of debts."

Li Longji's face turned dark and thought to himself that you were still embarrassed to mention this matter. Now the matter of Wang Hua buying people has been made public. Every time a person transfers twenty to thirty pounds of money, it led to this crazy population transfer. In order to greed for money, some people forcibly force the people, or lure the people to transfer the whole house onto the ship and send it to the sea.

The court did not know how many people had been transferred, but knew that they must have exceeded one million people. Wang Hua had money, but he had to admit that he had made a lot of subsidies for the northwest, and with this expense, it was estimated that the working capital he had in his hands was indeed empty.

Wang Hua ignored his expression and continued, "I originally didn't plan to count on the imperial court's money, but I really couldn't get out the funds. Even the imperial court's five million shreds of money was probably only half of the cost. Remember, the Kyushu Cauldron was not minted for me."

The last sentence really hit Li Longji's vital point. He said hesitantly: "You mean that this Jiuzhou Cauldron costs more than ten million yuan."

"It is very likely that I was not enough. It was not until after casting cloisonné and turning my attention to jade, I realized that its cost was far beyond my expectations. But Prince, I just want to say one thing: If the court cut half of the current redundant officials, or issued an edict to cut half of the residences of the princess and princesses and princesses and not build them, the money would be released. If the prince did not agree, the court would have to fulfill this peace agreement. Within two years, the food, cloth and copper coins owed must be transported to the northwest."

If you don’t give, you have to give it. Li Longji smiled bitterly and said, “Can I still refuse back?”

There is no way, so I can only take it as a reward for Wang Hua.

However, the news of millions of tools spread out, which aroused great curiosity.

Wang Hua put forward the second requirement.

Because there are eighty-one patterns, these are all famous scenery of major states. For example, the first central continent, the first nine patterns is Chang'an City as the scenic spot and Zhongnan Mountain as the background. The second pattern is the Great Wall. No one pays attention to it now, but it has to be admitted that it is a landmark in China. The third picture is the hut cloth, one is the Yellow River, which is China's mother river, and the second waterfall's rushing has a great symbolic meaning. The fourth picture chooses Wu Gorge, which has beautiful scenery, and the Yangtze River is also China's mother river. The fifth picture, Wang Hua did not choose Mount Tai, so he made a basic Fengshan,

He chose Huangshan. The mountain is Huangshan, the water is Jiuzhaigou, and the mountains and rivers are Guilin. This is the most beautiful place in China. Therefore, the sixth and seventh scenes were also settled. The eighth picture was the Potala Palace. Sorry, Wang Hua ignored Tubo's opinions and put all Tubo into his pocket. The ninth picture was the social place between Soges and Xiaohai. As for the part between Goryeo and Jiaozhi, the part between Goryeo and Jiaozhi was too small and not included in Wang Hua's eyes. As long as Lake Baikal was taken into consideration, other places in the north would be safe. But the latter place Wang Hua had never been there. He drew it based on his memory and based on pictures on computers in later generations.

The same is true for other patterns, some are drawn one after another based on memory and some are drawn based on the descriptions of their subordinates.

The second state is Siberia, and Wang Hua didn't understand it. How did this area run into the hands of the Russians? Later, it was the resources of this Far East that supported the Russians not falling down. The first pattern was the Ural Mountain, which separated the Asia-European region at once. Then it went to the scenery of the Arctic Sea, the beautiful scenery of the Kamchatka Peninsula, the empty and desolate Siberian Tundra, the excellent natural ports of Vladivostok, the snow fields and aurora in the Arctic, the Jianhe River and the Ob River, and the Outer Xing'an Mountains.

Mayan architecture in North America, Berris Wu Group Mei Mei Falls, Greenland, Rocky Mountains, Wudalian Lake, Hudson Bay, Gulf of Mexico, North American Plains, and Orisaba Volcano.

etc.

In short, the eighty-one pictures are mainly famous attractions of landmarks and supplemented by other beautiful scenic spots, covering the five major locations of this state, east, west, south, north, and middle.

Wang Hua counted and drew it clearly, and later made some improvements. He did not seek charm, but rather similar shapes, and tried to be the same as the pictures taken by the camera on the computer.

These pictures were then handed over to the famous portraits of the Tang Dynasty to repaint and inject the charm.

Therefore, the support of the court must be needed. For example, Xue Ji, who is now fighting with Cui Riyong, has excellent painting skills and is good at painting characters and cranes. Zheng Qian, who was once promoted by Wang Hua, is good at painting landscapes. Zheng Qian's three painters, Wang Wei and Zhang Tong are now a little kid and can't count on them. General Li Sixun, who is good at painting scenery, General Li Zhaodao of Li Zhaodao of Li Sixun, Li Sixiu of Li Sixiu of Li Sixiu, the younger brother of Li Sixiu of the future, Li Linfu of Li Sixiu of the great man. These four are landscape masters.

Wu Daozi, who was beginning to show his head, was also a god of painting. Jiang Jiao was good at painting eagles, Cao Yuankuo was good at horses, Zeng Luoxingshi, the Tang Secretariat Zeng Luoxingshi, and He Cao Xue He Xingshi became the four masters of Lang Yuling. Sima Chengzhen, the master of Taoist Li Xuejun, was good at painting landscapes, and Lu Hong, who was good at painting ink bamboo, including Li Longji, who was good at painting ink bamboo and himself, Wang Hua collected a total of 81 people, from high officials and nobles in the court to folk hermits. It can be said that these 81 people represent the top painters in the Tang Dynasty today, and each of them is not lower than the top 150 people in terms of strength.

Of course, the top one is General Li from all over the world. Wu Daozi's painting style has not yet reached the point of perfection.

Secondly, there are masters of calligraphy. Many painters are often calligraphers themselves, such as Xue Ji, Lu Hong and others. Others are only famous calligraphy, such as He Zhizhang, and Zhong Shaojing, who just rose and fell. Although his character is not very good, his calligraphy is very famous. He is a descendant of Zhong Yao. Some people call Zhong Yao the big clock and he is the little clock. For example, Li Longji's brother Li Chengqi, and Wang Hua finally found the down-and-out cursive saint Zhang Xu. In order not to let the star deviate, Wang Hua specially drank a lot of wine and wrote a few words and posted them to him. This made Zhang's cursive script finally enter the realm of great success, and now it is no less than Wang Hua's cursive script. The future prime minister Lu Jianzhi killed Li Yong, who protects his wife.

Another one-time search, and calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty was more important than painting, so this time it was very widespread, with 182 people. Each of them wrote one poem or essay. However, it was a pity that Wang Huai, the highest level of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty was Ou Chu and Yu, plus the cursive saint Sun Qianli. Later, Huaisu, Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan, and Zhang Xu, these eight people were the peak of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Yong's running script and He Zhizhang's cursive script were good, these eight people were still a short distance away from Zhang Xu's calligraphy.

That is, these 182 works cannot represent the true essence of Chinese calligraphy.

Then there are the fu written by everyone in the article, including Li Jiao, Li Yong, and Zhang Shuo. It was because of Afu exiled to Lingnan that Shen Quanqi, Su Feng, He Zhizhang, Zhang Jiuling and Cui Shi. These 81 people are also the best big-name writing practices in the Tang Dynasty. Wang Hua did not ask about their political stance, but only their talent in their articles.

Wang Hua wrote the direction, geographical characteristics, production climate, etc. of the pictures. Then he let them imagine and write an article.

Next is poetry. This time, only look at the ability to write poetry, not the ability to write articles. Many literary masters were not selected again, but Zhang Jiuling, Li Yong, Zhang Shuo, Li Jiao and others are still among them. Some people do not choose their poems and even paintings. However, some people do not choose their poems, but choose their poems, such as Guo Yuanzhen, who was knocked down by Wang Hua, and Song Zhiwen, who was full of big teeth. Before Shangguan Xiaowan left, she also forced Wang Hua to come up with a short poem.

Li Longji looked at the long list and took a breath of air conditioning.

Before the construction of the Kyushu Cauldron began, just because of the nearly 300 selected people, it is impossible to imagine its scale.

In addition to its huge cost, it was spread among the people for a while, and even talked about its affairs, which was more frequent than the coup in the court. After all, if the politics is not well discussed, it will be unlucky, and it will be fine if you talk about handicrafts.

After a long time, Li Longji woke up and said, "Accurate."
Chapter completed!
