Chapter 203 The Incident in the River with Lu Jing's Calligraphy
Chapter 203 Lu Jing’s Copybook, Incident in the River
Gu Chenxiao has never left Hengshan Mansion these days.
Among the three seventh-level monks in Hengshan Mansion, Xiao Gu was beheaded by Lu Jing, and another strong man at the Zhaoxing level was also seriously injured by Lu Jing. The only one who still had strength was Fan Yuan.
The other monks below the seventh level are actually nothing to Lu Jing now.
He has a rich background and many abilities. He was able to kill Prince Xuanwei outside Taixuan Jing. In fact, he was completely unafraid of any strong man in Hengshan Mansion.
Even before he merged with Mr. Four's divine fire, Lu Jing still had Zhuo Yaoluo who was in the divine realm to help him!
Gu Chenxiao is usually crazy and murderous, but the demon he has cultivated in his heart and his special identity have made him domineering and arrogant!
But...he will still assess the situation.
After Lu Jing obtained two treasures that could control the wind and rain, and obtained the right to enforce laws, he broke into Hengshan Mansion and killed the practitioners in his mansion. Even he, the prince of Qi, was seriously injured because of Lu Jing.
After that, Gu Chenxiao did as Lu Jing said, and never took a step out of Hengshan Mansion. He seemed to be silently healing his wounds.
But Nan Fengmian's words today inevitably made Lu Jing change a little.
"A dog cannot change its habits."
Nan Fengmian looked at the fish swimming in the pond: "Just like these fish in the pond, if there is no water, they will not live long. Maybe for Gu Chenxiao, he needs to see others in pain and despair.
, so that he can survive.”
While the swordsman was speaking, he was still holding Xinggu Zhenren around his waist, and even kicked a stone out from under his feet. The stone went through the air and killed a buzzing fly.
"Gu Chenxiao is not leaving Hengshan Mansion now. He is just waiting for the powerful men from Qi State to arrive."
Nan Xuehu behind the two said: "Someone in the government and the public is recording the mistakes Gu Chenxiao made so that they can use them as bargaining chips in the future.
In Gu Chenxiao's view, Mr. Lu Jing is the only one who opposes him. As long as Hengshan Mansion has enough power, he can always take revenge."
He frowned and gritted his teeth when he spoke. He couldn't kill such a person!
"That requires a strong man from Qi State to enter Xuandu." Nan Fengmian sneered.
Lu Jing nodded.
Nan Xuehu looked at Nan Fengmian and Lu Jing, with a little more worry in his eyes. When the two talked about this matter before, Nan Xuehu was right next to them. He heard what Lu Jing and Nan Fengmian wanted to do.
It's just that when a powerful man from Qi State entered Taixuan Capital and Nan Fengmian went to intercept and kill him, he must be guilty of a serious crime.
With Nan Fengmian's strength and talent, coupled with the meritorious service of assassinating the Protector of Shanin, although he would not die, there would inevitably be many disturbances.
And his sixth uncle happens to be a wealthy man with a free and easy temperament. What he can't stand the most is the constant turmoil in Xuandu. Because of this, Nan Fengmian once said that after he kills someone, he will go to Qi State.
.
Lu Jing... seemed to want to help his uncle Feng Mian.
This is why Nan Xuehu is worried about the two of them.
Apart from worry, Nan Xuehu also looked a little melancholy in his eyes.
"Uncle and Lu Jing are planning to do this big thing. They are planning how to kill two people from the seventh realm. One of them is even a strong man at the fifth level of the seventh realm... My cultivation level..."
Nan Fengmian couldn't help but glance at Lu Jing secretly.
He naturally knew about Lu Jing slaying the dragon outside Taixuan Jing and sending the daughter of King Chong'an out of the palace. Today, he mentioned the matter about the strong men of Qi State. Nan Xuehu suddenly felt that his cultivation and talent were still too low.
No matter what, this is a feat. If he is also an innate martial arts expert now, he may be able to go away with a knife and kill a few strong men who are helping the evildoers.
Nan Xuehu's thoughts were confused: "I hope my uncle and husband are fine."
"The Seventh Prince has opened his mansion. All the prominent people are here to congratulate you tonight, but you are not invited?"
Nan Fengmian and Lu Jing on the side no longer talked about Gu Chenxiao. Nan Fengmian asked, and Lu Jing spoke calmly, saying: "Chu Yeshan once came to invite me with an invitation written by the seventh prince himself, but
Prince Xuanwei of Taichonghai also came together."
"Are you going?" Nan Fengmian showed interest in his eyes.
Lu Jing shook his head: "It's too noisy. I might as well drink with you here."
"I don't think the banquet is too noisy. The Duke of Nanfu has gone to my house, so we don't need to go. Come on, we won't come home until we get drunk today."
Nanfengmian is full of energy.
Nan Xuehu looked at Lu Jing, hesitated for a while and said: "Sir, since the invitation has been sent, wouldn't it be rude not to go?"
Lu Jing was walking towards the small pavilion in the distance and answered casually: "The Seventh Prince's invitation was written very carefully and meticulously. It's really not good to come and not go, but... I have asked someone to bring a congratulatory gift."
Nan Fengmian: "What did you give me?"
Lu Jing walked into the pavilion: "He wrote the seventh prince's invitation in my cursive script. It is said that he likes calligraphy and painting very much. In this case, I will give him a calligraphy sticker."
——
The seventh prince's residence is called Jiansu Mansion.
Under the Dafu regulations, a prince does not become a king when he opens a palace. Only when the prince succeeds to the throne, the prince's brothers and brothers will be named princes. Therefore, the seventh prince's residence cannot actually be called a prince's palace.
The name "Jian Su" of this mansion was not given by the Holy King himself, nor was it mentioned by any great scholar of the time. On the day the mansion was completed, there was no news about it, and this plaque was hung up.
Qingyun Street has already been decorated with lights and colorful decorations. You can see the carved beams and painted buildings of the Sufu mansion, the cornices and the blue glazed tiles on the roof, which reflect the glittering light under the starlight.
There was an endless stream of carriages at the door, and all the prominent dignitaries of the day came to see Su Mansion.
The courtyard is full of fragrant fragrance, with green pines and cypresses, slender polygonatum, green water chestnuts and fragrant water chestnuts. There are even Polygonum flowers and reed leaves swaying by the pond.
This is indeed a very elegant and luxurious mansion.
I saw that there was a guest hall in Su's mansion, which was more than ten feet long and wide, facing east and west. It was elegant in color and had towering vermilion pillars. On the south side were all the classics placed on the sandalwood shelves.
Many of them are unique in the world, and there are even bamboo slips full of traces of time.
There are many famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the sandalwood bookshelves.
Tonight, the living room was full of people. They looked at these calligraphy and paintings in admiration. Even famous scholars like Li Shen and Ji Yuanzhi were praising these classics and calligraphy.
The prince Yu Zhuoxian and the seventh prince Yu Xuanlou sat side by side at the top. The prince had a distinguished status and occupied a high position. The seventh prince met the master of Su Mansion, so he naturally also sat at the top.
Most of the civil and military officials in the DPRK and below were present, and idle officials above the third grade could also be seen.
Only the powerful officials of Dazhu Kingdom, the First Assistant, Second Assistant of Taishu Pavilion, Da Sikong, and Da Situ had already congratulated Yu Xuan Tower in the palace as early as noon today, but they did not come back because they wanted to avoid suspicion.
When attending these dignitaries' houses, they also sent very important people to attend, without losing the face of the Seventh Prince.
After all, for most princes, the most important thing in their lives is to leave the cabinet and open a palace.
Yu Xuanlou's face had always been calm, but today there was a hint of blush on his face, and his eyes were surprisingly happy.
Although many things have happened in Taixuan Capital these days, under the surging undercurrent, he and the prince have had many confrontations, winning or losing.
In addition, there is Lu Jing in Taixuan Capital.
Yu Xuanlou never thought that the bastard who came out of the declining Jiuhu Lu family could cause him to suffer so many losses.
After three drinks, everyone congratulated him one after another.
Yu Xuanlou looked down and saw many people sitting in the living room hall.
There were several of his royal brothers and many dignitaries in the court, but not Lu Jing.
He couldn't help but think to himself: "I invited him, it would be better if he didn't come."
Then his eyes fell on the prince, who was drinking alone with his head down.
Yu Zhuoxian sensed Yu Xuanlou's gaze, turned his head and smiled at him.
His eyes were as majestic as ever, as if an eldest brother was looking at his younger brother.
Yu Xuanlou raised a toast to each other and drank it all in one gulp.
The other princes not far away quickly raised their glasses and drank together.
They had already heard about the general dispute between the two.
And behind the many ministers and generals of the DPRK, there is a screen.
Behind the screen, there were still many female relatives.
Married women will naturally not appear in the guest room.
However, there are still unmarried princesses in Taixuan Palace. In major palaces, these princesses often have friends, and they always need a place to receive them when they come together.
When Su Zhaoshi, the young master of Dazhu Palace, kept looking at the screen, it was just that there was a mist lingering there, and the thin screen blocked all the subsequent scenes.
Behind the screen, there was a woman he had been thinking about day and night for seven years.
In a grand manner, Princess Anqing sat on the left and right of Chen Luming.
Chen Luming has inconvenient legs and feet and relies on a wheelchair to travel.
She usually doesn't go out or step out the door, but these days her brother Chen Xuan is not in Taixuan Jing, but went to the Qingzhu River to visit a great scholar. She originally planned to return yesterday, but because of something
Delayed.
Therefore, Chen Luming, as the only Miss of the Chen family from Hedong in Taixuan Capital, also came to the banquet of the Seventh Prince.
At this banquet, Chen Luming was surrounded by strangers.
Only Sheng Zi and Princess Anqing were mentioned frequently when Su Zhaoshi wrote letters to her. In addition, Princess Anqing had a cheerful personality, so he pulled Sheng Zi to sit next to her.
Princess Anqing spoke to Chen Luming in a low voice, while Shengzhi served Chen Luming some vegetables.
Li Wuhuang is also among these women.
The Seventh Prince sent a special message to her to come to the banquet and entertain the guests along with the Chu family's mistress.
The Chu family's mistress came here specifically to greet Li Wuhuang earlier today, and she came here without too much evasion.
This also represents the importance the Seventh Prince attaches to Li Wuhuang.
Among all the princesses, ladies and ladies.
Shengzi, the princess of Anqing, and Chen Luming deliberately sat at the very back.
However, Li Wuhuang's eyes still fell on Sheng Zi from time to time, wondering whether it was because of Sheng Zi's good relationship with Lu Jing.
Li Wuhuang was not very interested.
The reason is that Li Guanlong did not come in person today.
Originally, Li Wuhuang was going to marry the seventh prince and become the prince's main concubine, and the Li family in Xuandu was deeply tied to the Jiansu Mansion.
Duke Chu came here in person. Although Li Guanlong attended today's banquet in the palace, he should also be present at the dinner.
But Li Wuhuang knew that since Li Guanlong went to Taixuan Palace to plead guilty, he had been meditating with his eyes closed by the small pool, seemingly meditating to heal his injuries.
A few days have passed, and I only left the house once during today's Japanese-Chinese banquet.
Li Wuhuang did not come forward to disturb him.
Shengzi would occasionally look at the screen, her eyes wandering around, trying to see if there was Lu Jing among the figures reflected on the screen.
After watching it several times, Princess Anqing couldn't help but said to Sheng Zi: "Lu Jing had a big dispute with the seventh prince. He even killed the seventh prince's staff. He also chopped down the dead soldiers of the Chu family. The two of them were torn apart."
How can you come to congratulate the Seventh Prince if you lose your face?"
Shengzi thought about it and felt that this was indeed the case.
The seventh prince was in a high position, so he naturally had to write an invitation to invite Lu Jing to let people see his generosity.
But Lu Jing had no official status, and the Seventh Prince's subordinates had tried to kill him several times, so why come to congratulate him?
Shengzi was thinking about this.
But in the front hall, the prince suddenly smiled and said: "Seventh Emperor brother, I never thought that you have collected so many famous calligraphy and paintings.
The living room looks much thicker because of these calligraphy and paintings, and the beauty of the calligraphy and ink is even more beautiful than that of American glazed jade."
The prince spoke.
The living room suddenly became quiet.
Many people looked around and saw that the calligraphy and paintings hanging in the guest room were indeed made by famous artists. Not only were they precious, they were also filled with a strong sense of beauty.
The great scholar Li Shen was very good at calligraphy and painting. During the banquet, his eyes were all on these calligraphy and painting.
"Scroll of watching the tide in Qiantang, scroll of listening to the piano, fan of pear blossoms and white swallows, scroll of horse herding..."
"The Four Beichuan Painting Schools, the Songjiang Painting School, the Eight Wu Schools, the High School of Qi, and even the paintings of Guanyangzi of Zhenwu Mountain. These calligraphy and paintings are indeed very difficult."
Everyone spoke one after another, and everywhere they looked there were indeed calligraphy and paintings by famous artists.
Li Shen looked at these calligraphy and paintings, and after a long time, he suddenly said to Ji Yuanzhi on the side: "If you look carefully, the cursive writing is missing."
Ji Yuanzhi was about to answer.
Yu Zhuoxian, who was sitting at the top, turned his head, saluted Li Shen, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li Shen and I thought of something.
The world's famous calligraphers and painters each have their own strengths, but now they are all in regular script. Their actions fascinate the world's scholars the most, and they are also the most widely used.
But in Taixuanjing, because of a young master of calligraphy, young people prefer cursive calligraphy.
I heard someone say that even the emperor's younger brother often copied this gentleman's cursive calligraphy when he was in Zhuzhong Palace.
Now in this Jiansu Mansion, the only thing missing is this gentleman's name, which makes me a little surprised."
Everyone immediately understood who the young gentleman Prince Yu Zhuoxian was talking about.
Sheng Zi and Princess Anqing looked at each other.
Li Wuhuang, who was at the top, couldn't help but lower his head, and his eyes also changed a lot.
Yu Xuanlou listened carefully, his expression did not change, and he smiled calmly: "I did often copy Mr. Lu Jing's cursive calligraphy in Zhuzhong Que. Scenery cursive calligraphy has its own unique characteristics, but there is a huge gap between others' copying."
The seventh prince's voice was gentle. Even when Yu Zhuoxian mentioned Lu Jing, who had repeatedly collided with the seventh prince's lineage, there was no hint of displeasure in his eyes. Instead, he was full of admiration for Lu Jing.
Yu Zhuoxian showed a smile on his lips, looked at Yu Xuanlou and said: "It's a coincidence that when I just entered the Su Mansion, I happened to hear Yingmen writing a gift. I vaguely heard that Mr. Lu Jing didn't come today.
, but someone sent him a piece of calligraphy.
It just makes up for the shortcomings.”
"Mr. Lu Jing sent you a piece of calligraphy?" Yu Xuanlou's slightly blushing face smiled brighter and nodded: "This is an unexpected surprise. Mr. Lu Jing is an upstart in the literary world and a master of pen and ink. He can add
His calligraphy can add a bit of brilliance to the palace."
As Yu Xuanlou said this, he glanced at the servant next to him.
The servant hurried away and whispered a few words to Yu Xuanlou when he came back.
Yu Xuanlou then nodded: "Mr. Lu Jing is busy with trivial matters and has no time to come to see me at the Su Mansion. However, I did send someone to send a picture of calligraphy. I would like to thank Mr. Lu Jing for your help."
Many ministers in the court looked at each other with curiosity in their eyes, but none of them said anything.
On the contrary, Yu Zhuoxian gently placed the jade cup in his hand on the table and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu Jing's calligraphy and painting are too few circulated. On weekdays, many people in the court send letters of request. Mr. Lu Jing's courtyard
There are always people who reply politely in small letters.
However, Mr. Lu Jing's name has already spread throughout Taixuanjing, and even Mr. Li Shen and Mr. Yuan Zhi strongly agree with Lu Jing's cursive calligraphy.
Today, the emperor's brother has obtained Mr. Lu Jing's calligraphy, so he might as well take it out and let us take a look at it."
Yu Zhuoxian's eyes were full of interest, and he seemed to be really curious about the calligraphy sent by Lu Jing.
The seventh prince's eyes changed slightly.
Many people in the guest room lowered their heads and drank tea and drinks without speaking.
Behind the screen, Li Wuhuang couldn't help frowning and looking in the direction of the prince.
Princess Anqing, Shengzi has also come to understand.
"The Crown Prince clearly knows that Lu Jing has a great feud with the Seventh Prince that cannot be eliminated. Lu Jing did not come to see the Su Mansion in person, but sent a letter to him."
Princess Anqing thought to herself: "Perhaps there is an angry rebuke in Lu Jing's calligraphy. Even... Lu Jing's calligraphy is like a sword light, and maybe there is a sword light in it."
In Princess Anqing's mind, Lu Jing was bold and always liked to do unexpected things.
Even if he would never be so bold as to kill the Seventh Prince, Lu Jing would definitely dare to brew a sharp sword light and shine it in the Seventh Prince's eyes.
But the prince's words put the seventh prince on a high pedestal. Today is the official banquet. The seventh prince opened the scroll. If the words inside were offended by the seventh prince, then the banquet would become ugly.
many.
The people in the living room were each more shrewd than the other, so how could they not understand this? So they all fell silent and just drank and feasted.
Prince Yu Zhuoxian looked at Yuxuan Tower with a smile in his eyes.
Yu Xuanlou lowered his head, staring at the wine on the table, his expression unchanged, but he did not answer.
Duke Chu, who was sitting at the front, chuckled, the scars on his face trembling: "I am a rough man, he only wants to see beauties dancing, but he doesn't want to see those so-called elegant calligraphy and paintings.
As far as I know, the prince and Mr. Lu Jing have a very good personal relationship. If you want to read Mr. Lu Jing's handwriting, why do you need to read it in this palace?"
"That's what the Duke said." The smile on the prince's face became brighter: "In this case, I won't force it. After all, this calligraphy is a gift from Mr. Lu Jing to the emperor's younger brother. Good calligraphy and good painting can only be appreciated by one person.
, it’s actually also a kind of fun.”
The seventh prince said no more and raised his glass to signal the prince to drink.
The prince drank the wine in one gulp, then stood up and said, "Today I wish to congratulate the Seventh Emperor's younger brother. I am too drunk to drink, so I don't want to spend much time with you."
Everyone in the guest room stood up one after another to see the prince off respectfully.
Princess Anqing always liked to watch the excitement, and when she saw that the Seventh Prince was unwilling to take out Lu Jing's gift, she felt a little pity in her eyes.
"This seventh prince is a little timid. He must be afraid that Lu Jing will embarrass him."
Princess Anqing's consciousness flowed into Shengzi's mind: "But... I still remember the first time I saw Lu Jing in your courtyard.
Who would have thought that a concubine dressed in ordinary green clothes would now write a painting that even the current prince would not dare to open easily."
Sheng Zi couldn't help but glare at her, and Princess Anqing stuck out her tongue and lowered her head.
After a few breaths, she raised her head excitedly and said to Chen Luming beside her: "Your brother is not here these days, why don't you come with us to visit Taixuan Capital?"
Chen Luming lowered his head and hesitated.
She looked at her legs, which were like nothing, with a flash of guilt in her eyes.
Shengzi also quickly answered: "There is a peach mountain in Taixuanjing. The mountain is not high, but the mountain is full of peach blossoms in full bloom. It is undefeated all year round. It is the most commendable place in Taixuanjing.
As long as you don't pick peach blossoms on Peach Mountain, you can wander around as much as you want.
Miss Lu Ming, why don’t we go hiking together tomorrow?”
Chen Luming was frail and pale. He struggled for a while in his eyes, but finally shook his head.
"Thank you to Princess Anqing and Miss Sheng for inviting me, but Lu Ming is already mutilated. Peach Mountain is so high that I may not be able to climb it."
Princess Anqing said carelessly: "What's the matter? I'll just push you..."
Chen Luming did not answer.
Sheng Zi sighed. Even through the screen, she could feel Su Zhaoshi's expectant eyes.
But... Chen Luming felt that Su Zhaoshi was a towering mountain, and she shouldn't think too much about it with her disabled body.
"The Hedong and Hebei aristocratic families have a quarrel with Dazhu Kingdom, and now Miss Chen's family feels that she is incomplete and unworthy of Su Zhaoshi. This marriage... is really hurtful sometimes."
Sheng Zi thought this, and then thought of Lu Jing.
Maybe, she should be more proactive.
Tonight's dinner ended in a commotion.
The seventh prince was the only one left in the huge living room.
A white-haired old man rolled his wheelchair into the guest hall and saw the seventh prince holding a scroll in his hand with indifferent eyes.
The old man's voice was hoarse: "Why hesitate? Just open it and take a look."
Yu Xuanlou put the scroll on the table and said: "I just suddenly remembered that I was a little afraid to open this scroll when I was visiting the guests.
Lu Jing’s popularity is too great.”
"You are afraid that he will disgrace you." The old man said, "Your choice is understandable. You are the seventh prince of the current dynasty, and you are about to marry the sister of Shaozhu Kingdom. Your mother's family is the Duke of Chu.
Today, the courtiers are gathered here, and it is human nature to avoid risks.
But Lu Jing is different. Lu Jing acts erratically, seems to be within the rules, but does not have much to restrict his identity. He is very adventurous and doesn't have much to worry about.
You didn't open Lu Jing's scroll today, so even though it's embarrassing, it's not too embarrassing."
The white-haired old man said these words.
Yu Xuanlou relaxed his brows and opened the scroll.
In an instant, his expression suddenly changed, and a flash of misunderstanding occurred in his eyes.
The white-haired old man's spiritual consciousness circulated and landed on that piece of writing.
But I saw a line of words written on it.
"The way to learn is to be virtuous, to be close to the people, and to strive for perfection!"
This calligraphy is not written in cursive, but in regular script, which seems to be quite serious.
"Lu Jing never used cursive writing, nor did he want to embarrass me? Is he... recommending books to me?"
Yu Xuanlou frowned rarely, and his expression became gloomy: "Does he think that I have never read Shanxue? He wants to explain to me the way of Shanxue?"
The white-haired old man also fell silent.
Both he and Yu Xuanlou misguessed Lu Jing's intentions.
I thought that because of the hatred between the two, there must be a mystery in Lu Jing's calligraphy.
But Lu Jing seemed to be teaching seriously, worthy of his reputation as a library teacher.
"I guessed wrongly what Lu Jing did again."
Yu Xuanlou threw the scroll on the table casually, his eyes seemed a little bored.
The light shining in his double pupils also dimmed a lot.
"However... this sentence on the single scroll means that Lu Jing and I can only be two people."
"The Sophora Gang has already established its presence in the river, and since Lu Jing can't get rid of it, let's leave it to him for the time being.
If things in the river can be accomplished, everything will be easy."
