Chapter 26 Rhythm out of rhyme, fragrance out of fragrance

"Flat, straight, even, dense, edge, force, light, firm, remedy, damage, clever, call this is the twelve intentions!"

Yuan Jie thought carefully and found that he had a deep understanding of calligraphy, but he could not understand the meaning for a while. However, Yuan took Confucianism and was a master of those who were good at learning, so he lowered his attitude and asked without shame, saying, "Can you explain it in detail?"

At this time, he no longer dared to regard Xu You as an ignorant and vulgar martial artist. On the contrary, in addition to having some doubts in his heart, he regarded him as a famous calligrapher who could discuss with him.

Xu You was impressed by his intentions and wanted to play more. He smiled and said, "It's always superficial. Is there any original work of Taifu Zhong in the mansion?"

"This..." Yuan Jie smiled bitterly and said, "Most of Zhong Yao's original works were destroyed during the Five Barbarians Rebellion. Only "Recommendation of Ji Zhi Biao" and "He Jie Biao" were circulated in the world. They were taken away by the prefect of Xin'an, Yang Yan, and were not given any signs to others."

Sheep?

Xu You thought to himself what this person is. He was able to hold all the only two original works of Zhong Yao in his hand. However, he was afraid that he would make mistakes if he said too much. He did not inquire about the origin of this person, but just secretly wrote down his name and waited for it to be verified later.

"There is no original work? That's nothing to worry about, it's even if there is a copy."

"This is easy to say, "Declaration Form", "Recommendation Form of Jizhi Form", "He Jie Form", "Changyuan Form", "Li Ming Form", "Tomb Field Bingtai", "Yesterday's Message and Posts", "Bai Qi Tie", "Change Tie", "Snow Han Tie", etc., all of which are copied in the palace."

The most widely circulated "Five Forms and Six Posts" by Zhong Yao, Xu You only copied the "He Jie Form" and said, "Then take "He Jie Form".

Yuan Jie immediately turned around and said, "Go to the study and ask Qi Mo to pick up the "He Jie Forum"!"

Feng Tong went to the death. After a quarter of an hour, a young man with beautiful eyebrows and eyes followed him, looking like a fifteen or sixteen years old, with a face like a jade and a red lips. He should be the book boy named Qi Mo. He wore a robe and mattress, a trousers and skirts, a small crown on his head, and his whole body was white. Although they were all very ordinary cloth, his snow-white face set off his beautiful face, which made people unforgettable at first sight.

He lowered his head, held a book in his hand, and just looked at his careful expression, he understood the value of this copy in Yuan Jie's mind. Within this quarter of an hour, Yuan Jie didn't say a word, but just looked at Xu You's divorce letter at his desk, carefully reading it word by word. If others didn't know, they would still think that they were watching which masterpiece of everyone.

"The Lord, "He Jie Biao" has been taken." Qi Mo's voice was soft and low, and it was a bit pleasant.

"Open!"

Yuan Jie still looked at the divorce letter intently, and looked at the "He Jie Biao" which was usually very happy at the moment of seeing it. If Zhong Yao knew about it, he would not know if there would be any sigh of "only seeing the new people laugh, but not hearing the old people cry." Feng Tong hurriedly sorted out the case, Qi Mo slowly opened the book, took out a bronze slump book and suppressed it on the upper corner, and then retreated aside.

From beginning to end, his eyes were at thirty degrees to the ground, and he never looked up at anyone!

"Walking on both sides of the road, I am on the risk of danger and taking advantage of the cold. I have no responsibilities, no entourage, and I have to rely on my feelings and have no sacrificing..." Xu You stepped forward and read the content of "He Jie Biao" softly, with his eyes full of admiration.

Since Zhong Yao's original works were lost, the circulated copies were all copied by later generations. I don't know how many generations of versions have been passed down, mixed with the artistic re-creation of each generation of authors. In fact, this copy in front of me has long been far away from the original style. But the copy in front of me is different. It should have been copied from Yang Li's mansion according to the original, which is the legendary "True Second Generation". Whether it is the idea or the pen tip, the original appearance of "He Jiebiao" is displayed in front of Xu You at a glance.

Oh, by the way, "He Jie Biao" is a memorial written by Zhong Yao when he was 68 years old. When he learned that Guan Yu had lost and left Maicheng, Sun Quan had his head chopped off. He was overjoyed and wrote!

"How?" Yuan Jie finally gave up his promise to get out of the divorce letter and stood beside Xu You and asked.

Xu You sighed, "I dare to ask who this copy was written by anyone? I suddenly felt a dense and profound ancient aura coming to my face, which was full of the true interest of Zhongshu's twelve intentions!"

Yuan Jie knew that Xu You was talking about something private, and the little doubt in his heart immediately disappeared. After all, he saw Xu You’s handwriting with his own eyes, so he could never make a false statement. He said, “Qilang has good eyesight. This is the “Half Fish Book” copied by Lu Lingzi, the master of the inner palace!”

Qi Mo, who had been hunching his head, froze, suddenly clenched his hands tightly, and then let go in an instant, as if he was afraid that others would notice his reaction, so he lowered his head. However, he was a little worried. The four people in the room, Yuan Jie's thoughts were all on calligraphy, and Xu You were thinking about how to fool Yuan Jie's life later. Feng Tong's eyes kept on Yuan Jie, and he didn't leave for a moment, ready to figure out the best intentions and win the favor of the man.

Life is so sad. You think something important to you, but in the eyes of others, you can't even leave a little dust!

Chen Lingzi should be the name of a girl, but Xu You was not surprised. The inner palace refers to the imperial palace. Since the Han Dynasty, there has been a female official system in the palace, which is not surprising.

However, he was not very familiar with the current situation of Chu. After asking, he realized that after An Shiyu became emperor, there were many people in the palace waiting to be renovated. Therefore, he adhered to the old system of Han and Wei, imitated the rank of central officials, and then made a little changes to establish the female official system of Chu.

The first rank is the head of Ziji household, who commands the inner palace; the second rank is the middle supervisor of Ziji, who belongs to the deputy; the third rank is the master of ceremonies, Sizheng, Siqi, Sifang, Sigong, etc., and under each rank, there are eight commanders, who belong to the fourth rank, who are in charge of various affairs, including etiquette, palace affairs, supervision, meals, clothing, music, literature and history, prayers, education, textiles, embroidery, prison, cleaning, vigilance, defense, kitchen, warehouse and other matters. Under the fourth rank, there are also the fifth rank, the sixth rank counselor, the seventh rank, the eighth rank general, the ninth rank female emperor, etc., as well as various other miscellaneous positions.

Lu Lingzi is the master of calligraphy, one of the eight-palm envoys under the third-rank ceremonial master, in charge of the classification, preservation, copying and teaching work of calligraphy and painting. He belongs to the Qingliu rank among female officials and is very respected.

Only then did Xu You understand why this girl called Lu Lingzi could copy "He Jiebiao" so well. It turned out that she was doing this job herself!

If it is put into future generations, it will definitely be a top talent in the fake world!

"Why is it called 'half-fish book'?"

Yuan Jie smiled, pointed to the head of the guide and said, "Look at this place, is it a small left half seal with the word "half fish"?"

Xu You bent down, looked carefully, and said in surprise: "Sure enough, these two characters are gentle, beautiful and clear. Although they are completely different from the style of "He Jiebiao", I guess it should be the handwriting of Lu Zhangzhang?"

"Qilang's eyes are as sharp as a torch!" Yuan Jie stroked his beard and said, "Lu Lingzi's small name is half a fish, this is her unique seal."

Lu Banyu?

Why is this name a little weird? Xu You was amused in his heart, but his face was silent, and he said ashamed: "I know nothing about the rules and characters in the court. If it weren't for Mr. Yuan's guidance, I wouldn't have known that there was such a strange woman in Jinling City."

"You are still young and older than Yixing. You don't often walk around Jinling, so you don't know much about these things." Yuan Jie did not doubt it. Yixing Shen is a powerful martial arts clan. It is incredible that he can teach Xu You's calligraphy like this. If he really is so young, he knows very well about all things in the court, and I'm afraid no one will believe it.

"This woman is extremely talented and has almost no other woman in the dynasty. The famous monk Tan Qian once praised her for her eight characters, "Rhymes produce rhymes, fragrance produce fragrances." Unfortunately, her life experience was sad and she was forced to be in the palace, which made people sigh!"

Xu You was in a high position in his previous life and was used to seeing too many beautiful women. No matter how beautiful the woman was, she would inevitably have a day of disgust. Therefore, she was not too enthusiastic about women and could not feel Yuan Jie's lament. She smiled and said, "Being able to be a master of the fourth rank is far superior to most women in the world. Isn't it okay to worry about it?"

Yuan Jie shook his head and said, "So what about the fourth rank? He is just a slave to the master..."

This sentence seemed familiar, and Xu You was in a daze. He remembered that he had read the "Old Book of Tang" before. There was a joke about the younger brother of Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin. The guru of King Shu Li Yuanming asked him to visit the high-ranking female official in the palace. Li Yuanming said disdainfully, "She is just a maid of the second brother, so I'm just a maid." This attitude was praised by Li Shimin. Therefore, after all, female official is not a concubine, nor a royal family, but a senior worker in the palace, or a slave. As for whether he can jump from a female official to a concubine, it depends on the emperor's mood, physical strength and aesthetics.

Seeing that Yuan Jie was feeling a little depressed, Xu You finally aroused his curiosity about Lu Lingzi. He never heard of any excessive romantic affairs of this Yuan Zuojun, so why did he care so much about the Lu girl?

Thinking of this in his heart, Xu You changed the subject and said, "Did Mr. Yuan fulfill his wish to fulfill his ears?"

Yuan Jie immediately came to his senses, threw Lu Lingzi behind his head, stared at "He Jiebiao", with a slight excitement in his eyes, and said, "I hope to hear it carefully!"

"Platform means horizontal. Look at the word "Yan". The word "Yan" is connected and broken, and the peak of the touch is scattered; straight means vertical, look at the word "钟" and then look at the word "钟" and bet in a simple way, thick and fibrous and square; both are called interstellar, like the word "Hu"... Secret means the point of the point, the tip means the structure... Power means the body, light means bend... Resolution means pulling and pulling, supplement means insufficient. Loss means excess, clever means layout, and size..."

Xu You said casually, and he combined Zhong Yao's twelve intentions in this "He Jie Biao", which made Yuan Jie breathtaking, as if he listened to the immortal sound, leaving only nodding.

"If the pen is evil, there will be no horn. If the pen is wide, the writing will be slow and weak. If the dot and pull, the method will be bloated. If the dot and pull, the method will be loose. If the dot and pull, the method will be loose. If the stroke is fast, the character will be horizontal. If the stroke is sparse, the character will be slow. If the stroke is tight, the character will be slow. If the stroke is tight, the character will be weak. If the stroke is loose, the character will be weak. If the ink is weak, the ink will be weak. If the ink is less floating and astringent, the ink will be more dull. Only by understanding the twelve meaning of Taifu Zhong can you truly learn the essence of the words and lines!"

Yuan Jie was silent for a while, then laughed and said, "The Master said that it is enough to die in the morning and evening. Only now can I truly understand the meaning of the saint's words."

Xu You bowed his head and bowed, saying, "Duke Yuan praised it. The calligraphy is so profound that I am just a first look at the way. Furthermore, if you didn't know that Duke Yuan was a person, generous and tolerant, and elegant, you would not dare to speak casually and say these general words to defile the lord."

Zhong Yao's twelve meanings are the theoretical research results of Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Yan, and are of great significance in the history of calligraphy. It not only created an aesthetic rule that emphasizes charm for the evaluation of calligraphy, but also determined his supreme position in the history of calligraphy. Of course, there is no Xiao Yan in this historical time and space. Xu You used his achievements to use them, which would not allow the sea to have their own pearls.

Yuan Jie was very satisfied with Xu You's humble attitude, and his eyes kept looking at his face, and then he seemed to have intentionally and unintentionally swept over the other side's divorce letter, with a strange expression between his eyebrows and eyes.

Xu You was shocked. No, was it because he was too over-executing, which made this guy think of loving talent and wanted to go back on his word and not break off the engagement?
