Chapter 151 Who is the first person to flatter (monthly ticket full 450
Seeing two Taoist priests coming in, Wu Haogu secretly shouted in his heart that something was wrong!
Because of the fact that he cursed Duan King Zhao Ji, Wu Haogu had already told Guo Jing and Liu Wuji. In today's scene, if the two charlatans couldn't see that Zhao Xiaoyi was Zhao Ji, they should not be in the charlatan world.
But once Guo Jing and Liu Wuji point out Zhao Ji's identity, then... it will be no fun.
Although the comments about "King Duan's frivolity" have been passed down from history and have been recognized, Zhao Ji doesn't know now, and he won't know that most people in this room know his true identity.
So once it is pointed out, Zhao Ji is likely to take up the stinking airs of the Prince of Song and will not play with everyone in the future.
How boring this is!
Moreover, Wu Haogu, Ji Yizhi, Su Dalang, etc. What identities do you have? Why do you want to curry favor with His Highness, the noble prince?
If Zhao Ji wasn't very playful, if he had his brother Zhao Xu, would you be qualified to lick him if you wanted to kneel down and lick him?
Therefore, when they saw Guo Jing and Liu Wuji worship Zhao Ji, the three guys who were determined to flatter Zhao Ji all raised their hearts to their throats.
But don’t say anything “to pay homage to His Highness Duan”! It would be awful if you want to say it…
Fortunately, the two geniuses finished their worship and went to the side without saying a word.
What's going on?
Now Zhao Ji was confused. He originally thought that his true identity was seen through by two Taoist priests. But why did those two Taoist priests stop talking after worshiping?
What does it mean?
Why do they worship themselves?
Zhao Ji was a little strange. Looking at Guo Jing, Liu Wuji asked, "Why are the two Yugus worshiping me just now?"
When Guo Jing heard the question, he recited the "Fusheng Wuliang Heavenly Lord", and then replied with a smile: "I drank a few more drinks before going out today, so when I entered the door, I looked at my husband as the great master in heaven, so I worshiped him... I really made my husband laugh."
What? Do you think of me as the Great Dao Lord? What are your eyes?
Zhao Ji found it interesting and asked Liu Wuji again, "Where are you? You have drunk too much?"
Liu Wuji smiled and said, "I haven't drunk too much."
Zhao Ji asked again: "Then do you think of me as the Great Daojun?"
"No." Liu Wuji said, "It's just that I dreamed of the ancestor Xiyi yesterday. He said that I have a fairy fate today, and I can see the immortal king who came down to earth. I just met the husband, so I knew that what the ancestor said was true, so I worshiped him."
The ancestor Xiyi was Chen Tuan, a great Taoist in the early Song Dynasty in the Five Dynasties. He was named Mr. Baiyun by Zhou Shizu, and Emperor Taizu of Song named him Mr. Xiyi. It is said that he lived 118 years old and died in Zhangchao Valley, Huashan in the early years of Duonggong in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Later, this Mr. Xiyi was regarded as a god by Taoism and was called the ancestor Xiyi or Chen Tuan.
The ancestor Chen Tuan asked a dream to say that Zhao Ji was an "Immortal Lord", which was possible in Zhao Ji's opinion... because he was originally a "subordinate of gods", and his ancestor was Zhao Gongming!
"Interesting, interesting." Zhao Ji only smiled faintly on the surface, but remembered these two Taoist priests in his heart.
Zhao Ji paused and asked again: "I wonder where the two Yu Guys have the names of Gao surnames, where are they practicing?"
Guo Jing said: "I am Guo Jing, named Qingxuan, and practiced in Yuntai Xianshan, Donghai." Then he pointed to Liu Wuji beside him, "This is Liu Wuji, named Qingxu, and I am with me in Yuntai Xianshan."
"Yuntai Fairy Mountain?" Zhao Ji was very interested in this topic. He not only liked gods, but also loved to play. Unfortunately, as a prince, he could only wander around the Kaifeng Prefecture territory.
"But the Yuntai Mountain in Yuzhou is in the mountains of Yuyu Cangwu Sea, and there is no place for Fang Abbot Yingtai?"
"That's right." Guo Jing smiled and pointed at Wu Hao Ancient Road, "I met this Mr. Chong Dao in Yuntai Mountain."
"Oh?" Zhao Ji asked with a smile, "Dalang, have you been to Yuntai Mountain as well?"
"I've been there," said Wu Haogu, "I also drew a picture of "Yuntai Mountain Residence" in Yuntai Mountain."
"Yuntai Mountain Residence Picture"? Where is it?"
Wu Haogu smiled and said, "If you want to see it in the Wu Family Painting Chai on Panlou Street, just send someone to pick it up tomorrow."
"Yuntai Mountain Residence" is a landscape painting, but it is not an ordinary landscape, but a fine brushwork and realistic landscape painting. It perfectly records the beautiful scenery of Yuntai Mountain shrouded in clouds and mist on the painting silk.
"Okay, okay," Zhao Ji laughed, "I'll ask someone to pick it up tomorrow."
He really wanted to travel around the world, but unfortunately, he was born in the Tian family and was destined to lack the freedom of mortals. He could only see the beautiful scenery of Yuntai Mountain through Wu Hao's ancient paintings.
...
The sound of silk and bamboo and laughter came from the private room of the second day of Fengle Building.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, it was really time for the guests and hosts to have fun. Zhao Ji, the Duan King who made friends with people as a "common scholar" for the first time, also enjoyed the happiness of the scholar. It seemed to be happier than he imagined... Amid the musical musicians and singing of the musicians who were accompanying the banquet, Zhao Ji even felt that if he was not born in the imperial family, but an ordinary scholar, who played in the world with his own talent, would probably be happier than he is now?
Wu Haogu, who is a little greedy on weekdays, is not at all drunk today. Every time he picks up the wine bowl, he just takes a sip. Because he needs to keep awake enough to deal with Zhao Ji, and at the same time he also needs to observe the every move of the five "flattery spirits" Ji Yi, Mi Youren, Su Dalang, Guo Jing and Liu Wuji.
It’s not to despise them, but to learn from them!
After all, the Song Dynasty was a feudal society! It cannot be compared with the new China in later generations. It is impossible to do great things by relying on iron-mindedness. Even if a person does not go to Yalong Bay to live in a sea view villa, he will not be favored by a foolish monarch like Song Huizong.
Without the favor of a foolish emperor, it is no problem to be a good official who has left his name in history, but it is impossible to do a major task of saving the country and the people.
So to do things, you have to make Song Huizong happy first!
And if you want to coax Song Huizong... it is not enough to just kowtow as a slave. This guy doesn't even want to use this trick.
Besides, he wants someone to kowtow to himself, why bother pretending to be Zhao Xiaoyi? Just call Wu Haogu to Duan Wang Mansion to kowtow?
This "Daojun" born in the Tian family wants the kind of freedom and happiness of being a mortal.
This can be proved by real history!
Just as Wu Haogu was learning from the "flattery spirits", Ji Yiji, the great official, suddenly brought the topic to the battle between Wu Haogu and "Zhao Xiaoyi".
"Brother Xiao Yi, to be honest, it is not fair to compete with Wu Dalang's painting skills."
"Unfair?" Zhao Ji was stunned, "Where is unfair?"
Ji Yi smiled and said, "For example, in the paper "Vishaman Heavenly Map", Wu Dalang painted it according to people, and you painted it according to people... The difficulty here is very different!"
Yes! It seems unfair.
Zhao Ji thought about it and nodded.
Ji Yi said again: "If you really want to compete, you should be fair, and you will follow the real person's paintings."
Wu Haogu thought to himself after hearing this: Then Song Huizong would not lose so much that he could not find the North?
"Who should I draw?"
Zhao Ji asked excitedly.
He and Wu Hao Gu compared paintings, one was that he was not convinced by Wu Hao Gu’s "the first person in paintings"; the second was that he was playful, and the prince’s life was too boring, so he just wanted to have fun for himself.
He doesn't care about winning or losing at all, all he cares about is the process of being fun.
"Draw a beauty." Ji Yi said, "You can't be a beauty that you are familiar with... just in case you get familiar with each other. This is unfair!"
"Yes, it makes sense." Zhao Ji nodded, thinking that although Ji Yi is a sesame and mung bean official, he still has a little knowledge.
"Who do you want to draw?" Wu Haogu interrupted and asked, "Do you want to draw the ink lady?"
Ji Yi shook her head and smiled, "You have already drawn it, you can take advantage of it."
Wu Haogu thought: It was the one "Dance Picture of Mo Niangzi" that Zhao Ji asked him to copy. He couldn't copy it even if he didn't have a year or two!
Ji Yi looked at Wu Haogu, then looked at Zhao Ji, and smiled and said, "Why not do this, why don't you take this opportunity to take the opportunity of Kaifeng Prefecture Courtesan Competition to draw ten pictures of the courtesans, and then hang them in Wanglou, Panlou, Fenglelou, Yuxianlou, Qingfenglou, Baxianlou and Xiefanglou. What if you let the scholars and common people in Kaifeng Prefecture choose a winner?"
What?
If Zhao Ji also came to paint the courtesan, he would also compete with himself, and he would draw ten paintings in one stroke. Couldn’t Ji Yi have planned it long ago?
When Wu Haogu thought of this, he suddenly realized it.
This Ji Yizhi is playing a big game!
He spent a huge amount of money to hold the courtesan competition, and then asked himself to give the winning courtesan portrait, and this time he took out the wife of the family, Mo, to be a model for himself... all of this was originally a layout, and the purpose of the layout was to attract Zhao Ji, the future emperor, to join the game!
Needless to say, the purpose of introducing Zhao Ji into the game is naturally to flatter...
With this skill and thought of flattery, he can be called the best in the world in the Song Dynasty today!
It seems that this Ji Yi and Ji Daren are ranked among the seventh thieves in this time and space... Uh, maybe the eighth thief (plus another Mi thief Youren)!
"Okay!" Zhao Ji did not realize that he had already thought Ji Yi's words, but instead shouted loudly: "Dalang, what do you think? Are we going to compare to the previous one?"
"Just compete!" Wu Haogu smiled and glanced at Ji Yi, "I wonder what the lottery is?"
"It's a good start," Ji Yi smiled, "How about copper coins?"
Copper coins?
Wu Haogu and Zhao Ji were stunned at the same time. Money is good...but isn't it a little vulgar?
Ji Yi smiled and said, "Since you want to ask scholars and common people to evaluate, how to evaluate it? My method is to throw copper coins and put a basket under two paintings. If they think anyone is good at painting, they throw a copper plate into it. If there are not many, they throw one.
In the end, you just need to count the number of copper plates to distinguish the upper and lower plates. And the winning side will take away all the copper plates. How about it?"
Isn’t this a voting? Ji Yi is really tempted!
Chapter completed!
