Chapter two hundred and seventieth demolition plaque, famous post
In Ruyi Square, Magistrate Dong sat on a chair and sipped tea leisurely, while the man in brocade clothes walked around the shop, never taking his eyes away from the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.
Several guards stood at the door, glancing at the young man in the room from time to time, their eyes full of surprise.
Professor Feng was not too surprised. Although Li Yi had a naughty temper, his talent was real. No one could deny this. Master Yan was sure to get the plaque this time.
As the man in brocade clothes turned around, he couldn't help but make a sound of surprise.
These paintings were strange and unusual. He had never seen such painting methods in his life. However, what shocked him were the various inscriptions on the paintings.
What a great calligraphy. The person who wrote the poem on this is definitely a master of calligraphy. If he were not very familiar with the handwriting of a few famous calligraphers in Jingguo, he would definitely think that the other person is one of them.
Bit.
"Young man, are these calligraphy and paintings really by your hand?" The man in brocade still didn't believe that the master he wanted to meet just now was actually such a young man, and looked at Li Yi and asked.
Li Yi cupped his hands and said, "I have nothing to do, just write and draw to make the adults laugh."
Magistrate Dong had just introduced him. The person in front of him was a Shangguan from Beijing. Although he didn't know his position, he was definitely older than a small county captain like himself, and he should have no less etiquette.
"I have nothing to do, just write and draw..."
A rare blush appeared on the face of the man in brocade clothes. He had been studying this field for more than 20 years, but he was not as good as a young man who could write and draw casually... In front of old friends, this old face was a bit unbearable.
I originally thought that if there really was an unknown master hiding in Qing'an Mansion, I would definitely not miss this opportunity. I would prepare all the gifts and visit him at his door. After receiving some teachings, I might be able to break through the predicament I had been stuck in for several years.
However, the master was replaced by a young junior, so it was naturally not so easy for him to ask for advice.
Seeing the tangled look on his face, Magistrate Dong was amused and said, "If I remember correctly, Brother Yan seemed to have said just now that if the words on the plaque were really written by Lieutenant Li, he would eat it.
, I wonder if what Master Yan said is true or not?"
"Of course I count." The man in brocade snorted coldly and said, "Yan has always been true to his word, how can he not always count when he speaks?"
"Guo Jiang, take down that plaque and use it to drink wine when you get back today!" He strode to the door and ordered a guard.
The guard was not hesitant. He jumped up, clicked twice on the wall, and then climbed up to the plaque. In a few clicks, he removed the plaque that read "Ruyi Fang" and jumped to the top while holding the plaque steadily.
On the ground.
The action of removing the plaque was done in one go, naturally and smoothly. It was obviously not the first time he had done such a thing.
This scene made Professor Feng unable to close his jaw. Magistrate Dong rubbed his brows helplessly. With his temperament, he should have known, should have known...
When he was in Beijing, he had torn down many people's plaques, so much so that people who had invited the master to inscribe would take down their own plaques and hide them at night to prevent them from being stolen at night...
…
He was afraid that he had been planning this plaque from the very beginning.
Magistrate Dong looked up to the sky and sighed. If he had known that he would strike first, he would not take advantage of this guy. You know, he has also taken a fancy to this plaque a long time ago...
As for asking Li Yi to write a special inscription, given his status, he couldn't do this.
"It's rare to encounter a good appetizer today. Brother Wen Yun is drinking tea slowly by himself. I'm going to go ahead!" The man in brocade clothes laughed twice and strode out.
"You're stealing openly in broad daylight. Do you still want to be shameless?" Magistrate Dong said loudly in the house.
"Haha, how can we describe the matter of scholars as "stealing"?" came the maniacally laughing voice of the man in gilded clothes.
The guard holding the plaque followed closely behind the man in brocade, and disappeared into the crowd under Li Yi's astonished eyes.
Just tear down the plaque when you say it, without even asking the owner of the shop what he meant. Isn't this too straightforward?
Also, what is a Shangguan from Kyoto? All officials in Kyoto have this kind of virtue?
"Haha, he has such a temperament. He is obsessed with words and has torn down countless plaques in his life. Once this plaque reaches his place, I am afraid he will never come back." Magistrate Dong stood up and said helplessly: "The loss here,
I will compensate you."
What else can Li Yi say? In Jingguo, everyone from the emperor and princess to the officials and petty officials are all virtuous. They like to take other people's things for free. You can take away the plaques if you take them. At the very least, they must be small.
Are you kidding me?
What Li Yi wanted came soon. A man came in, put a piece of paper on the table, and said: "This is the name card of my family. If you arrive in the capital, you can use this name card to
Come to Yan Mansion to find him."
Li Yi initially thought it was a bank note. After looking over it for a while, he found that there was nothing on the paper except the word "strict". Is this the so-called name card?
There is not even a complete name, it is extremely sloppy. Although the boss did not have a cashier when the plaque was made, it is not like replacing such a useless piece of paper.
He threw the piece of paper on the table casually, and the plaque was snatched away by the guy. It seemed that he would never come back. When Ruyifang reopens in a while, he would have to order another one...
Professor Feng looked at Li Yi's disapproval of Master Yan's name card and reminded him: "Don't underestimate this name card. Master Yan worships the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The appointment, removal, examination, promotion, and transfer of civil servants all over the world are all done by the officials."
Responsible for the department and making friends with Mr. Yan will not harm your future promotion."
Li Yi didn't know the background of the man in brocade, but Professor Feng knew it all too well. The Yan family was considered a wealthy family in Jingguo. Many members of the family held high positions and were trusted by His Majesty. They had good relations with the Yan family and had great success in their official careers.
It will definitely go much smoother.
Although the two people once disliked each other, what Professor Feng couldn't stand was just his lack of ambition. This was his professional quality as a professor of government studies, and there was no personal grudge. This kind reminder was just to hope that he would
The right path is to get rid of the bad habits of the past, work hard to gain fame, and serve the country as soon as possible.
Li Yi also didn't expect Professor Feng to say this to him. Seeing his sincere tone, he was slightly moved. Although the two of them had different tempers, it was undeniable that this was a true gentleman.
He put it away, bowed to him with a solemn expression, and said, "Student, remember."
"A boy can be taught." Seeing his current changes, Professor Feng's expression softened greatly and he said with satisfaction.
He also guided a young man with unlimited potential from the wrong path to the right path, which gave him a full sense of accomplishment.
This was the young man with the most outstanding talent and ability he had ever seen. Professor Feng really didn’t want him to live a mediocre life, so he said again: "With your talent, being a small county captain is really an incompetence. I have many talents in Beijing."
My dear friend, I can write you a few letters of recommendation. If you go around and have a good relationship with Mr. Yan, if we jointly recommend it to His Majesty, a county magistrate will be indispensable. As long as you work diligently and make some political achievements.
, Ten years later, it is very likely that he will be transferred to Kyoto, and within twenty years, it is not impossible to be in the imperial court."
Professor Feng's saliva flew everywhere as he spoke, as if there was blood in his chest that was about to boil.
"Ahem, thank you Professor Feng. It's just that the student has not recovered from his serious injury. Let's talk about this later..." Li Yi covered his chest and coughed a few times, saying with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Let's talk about it in the future. How come you, a young man, are so ignorant..." Professor Feng frowned and acted like he was admonishing, "We, the scholars, should take it as our duty to serve the country..."
Li Yi rubbed his swollen head. This old man is here again...
