The black mist seemed to drag the girl into the endless abyss. The girl screamed and kicked hard until...
--Suddenly woke up from her dream, the girl's heart was still beating rapidly. It was this terrible nightmare again. This recurring dream had cruelly tortured her since she was three years old. But
The girl always had a hunch that there was a secret hidden in her dreams, and this secret was closely related to a part of his memory. But she couldn't remember it.
The royal library not only contains precious books from all over the world, but also many calligraphy and painting scrolls by famous artists. The people who manage the library are the maids who were sent to Yeting because of their crimes. The girl named Wan'er is one of them.
.
Her grandfather was originally a minister of the previous emperor and was assigned to the deposed prince as his tutor. But what he didn't expect was that Lailai would be involved in the deposed prince's rebellion, which affected his family. The men were sent to the army and the women entered the palace as slaves.
The girl was only four years old when she entered the palace. Now many years have passed, and her relatives have left one after another, leaving the lonely girl slowly growing up. Even though she is doing heavy work in the library, she is still practicing calligraphy every day.
This is the only souvenir passed down to him by his grandfather, a famous calligrapher.
When the birthday of the Holy Queen Wu Zetian came, someone recommended a great painter to paint Wu Zetian's true face. Because the Holy Queen was busy with affairs, she ordered the painter to live in the library of the palace to facilitate painting. So the master spent half of the time with her.
During sketching, he spent half the time immersed in painting in the library. The female official in the library assigned Shangguan Wan'er, a clever and ingenious person, to assist the painter.
The great painter is a knowledgeable, humorous and interesting person who has traveled through many mountains and rivers. Not only is his portrait painting lifelike, he can easily outline all the scenery he has seen and the interesting things he encountered on the road in just two or three strokes.
Shangguan Wan'er was very envious: she had never left the palace since she was four years old. From the painter's pen, Shangguan Wan'er saw how interesting the outside world was.
"If you haven't seen the outside world and the joys, anger, sorrows and joys of the world, the things depicted in your pen will be just superficial. The same is true for painting, and the same is true for writing. Yes, it is your handwriting that I am talking about."
Faced with the great painter's evaluation, Shangguan Wan'er was quite dissatisfied. But the great painter was immersed in his own art world and still kept chattering alone: "You studied Shangguan style. In the past, Master Shangguan's calligraphy could also be called
The above is a masterpiece. It is said that the gentleman has a kind and honest nature, so his writing is round and full, and he has the atmosphere of a prosperous age. You have learned it, but you can't learn it well. Look, the one who is hesitant and confused here is even me.
As a painter, I can also see that there are some flaws, that something is missing. Wow, don't... don't cry. Isn't it normal for a little girl to be less knowledgeable... No
,I didn’t mean that…”
Shangguan Wan'er suddenly stood up and was so shocked that the great painter took two steps back, but she bowed respectfully: "Thank you, master, for your advice. Wan'er has something stuck in her heart. She hesitates every time she writes.
Decision."
She told the great painter about her nightmare.
The great painter thought for a while and said: "In this dream, when the peonies appeared, what were you doing?"
Shangguan Wan'er didn't know what the great painter meant and shook her head in confusion.
The great painter said: "Every day you think about something, and every night you dream about it. There are no peonies planted in the library, but you often dream about them. Then maybe you often want to do something, and it will only appear when you dream about it.
peony."
Shangguan Wan'er tried her best to recall the scene in her dream, and said to the great painter: "I remember that I was writing the post at that time."
"What kind of stickers are there?" the great painter asked.
Shangguan Wan'er shook her head in distress. She always wrote on a piece of paper repeatedly, but it seemed that she could never finish it. She would start over in the next dream. She dreamed at night and thought about it every day. Now even during the day
When I write in front of the post, I will think of this incident, so I hesitate to write.
"I also want to know what post I am reading in my dream. Maybe finding that post can solve this nightmare. But over the years, I have read all the famous people in the library, as well as all the book posts of my grandfather, and I still can't find it.
No answer."
The great painter thought for a long time and said to Shangguan Wan'er: "I am a painter. I can draw all kinds of landscapes and figures at will. These all come from what I usually see and think. It can also be said that what I draw is my own memory."
.There are always some similarities between calligraphy and painting. Although I can’t guess the meaning of this nightmare, you must carry it and move forward. One day, you will complete this calligraphy sticker.”
After the great painter painted Wu Zetian's true face, he left the palace and left. But Wan'er kept thinking about the great painter's instructions. If the calligraphy stickers she wanted to present were not even in the library, where would they be?
"If you haven't seen the world, you haven't seen the joy, anger, sorrow, and joy of the world..." If you don't even have it in the palace, then it must be hidden in the world.
Soon, Wu Zetian received a sincere letter from the slave of Yeting Palace: "I would like to be your Majesty's eyes and ears, to see and listen... in the market place, by the pavilion... it should be
There are scenery that the Holy Queen wants to see but has never seen before, and I will write them all down..." This letter touched the Holy Queen. After secretly summoning Shangguan Wan'er, Shangguan Wan'er got her wish. It can be used as the Holy Queen's
Ear and Eyes, dressed as a man, went to the palace and Chang'an City to look for the book stickers he wanted to write.
In the spring of this year, when the peonies were in full bloom in Chang'an City, the dancers from the Jiaofang carefully prepared a dance and performed on the bank of Qujiang River. This grand event attracted almost everyone's attention in Chang'an City. And the outstandingly talented Shangguan Wan'er
, was ordered to judge the peony poems presented by the talented people. Talented people from the entire Chang'an City came to appreciate the flowers and offer poems. Only those who wrote the most outstanding poems could be received by the Queen.
It was on this day that Shangguan Wan'er climbed up a high building and saw a frightening figure standing in a sea of blooming peonies. In her dream, the bewitching peonies bloomed on her hand, trying to snatch away her.
Take her life and the lives of her loved ones.
But unlike the crying girl in the nightmare, Shangguan Wan'er tightened the pen in her hand.
"Grandpa, in front of that man, I am just a weak girl. But a weak girl will not be weak forever. She will grow into a strong woman because of calligraphy and pen and ink."
A few days later, Master Di Renjie, the new official of Dali Temple, received an appeal for an unjust case on his first day in office. The appealer was Shangguan Wan'er, the guilty minister, and the girl finally completed the piece of paper she had written repeatedly in her dream.
