Chapter 26 Scissorhands
There is a painting on the desk, and the painter uses sketching techniques to depict the spectacular view of the Yellow River floating bridge. Yang Lihua looked at the painting carefully and saw the situation when his son Yuwen Weihan stood by the Yellow River floating bridge in Luoyang, smiling and comparing the painter with a "scissors hand" to the painter.
This is not her random thoughts out of thin air, but real evidence: On the right side of this painting, there is a half-body portrait of Yuwen Weihan in "scissors hand" posture.
The sketch of people and scenery combined makes the person who is watching the painting feel as if he is there, as if he is on the scene, but the person who looks like a "scissors hand" posture feels awkward no matter how others look at it.
Yang Lihua looked at the sketch sent by her son, and was a little amused. She couldn't understand why Yuwen Wen asked her son to pose in this position and then asked the painter to draw the scenery together.
I also thought of the Crown Prince Yuwen Weicheng inspecting Longyou, and I was afraid that someone would draw such a sketch and send it back. I don’t know what kind of expression the queen would look like after seeing it.
Yang Lihua knew that Yuwen Wen often had all kinds of strange ideas in his mind, and then put them into practice one by one. Sketching is one of them, but it is precisely because of the sketching technique that people from two places can see each other's appearance.
Sketches originated from Xiyang were originally just a painting technique, but now with the prosperity of postal services, it has become a very fashionable "service". Many people, while entrusting others to write letters, also spend money to paint their own portraits and send them to relatives and friends far away with them.
After a sketch artist with good skills becomes a "special painter" in the escort business, he can support his family by drawing portraits every month by simply painting people.
The officials in the official office who are responsible for painting portraits for prisoners can increase their income because of an additional skill.
A large number of officials who are proficient in sketching have made the portraits of suspects drawn on wanted lists hanging at the gates of cities in various places much normalized.
Yang Lihua thinks Yuwen Wen is really amazing by creating an industry out of thin air to drive "employment".
After looking at the portrait of his son again, Yang Lihua carefully rolled up the painting and put it in the painting tube. His son Ren Guanjun Rong envoy went to Yingzhou to work. Not long ago, he had already crossed the Yellow River in Luoyang by the river bridge and entered the Heyang boundary.
When she thought that it would take the end of the year to see her son, Yang Lihua felt a little reluctant. She caught a glimpse of the picture frames on the low cabinet next to her. She picked up one and looked carefully.
This is a portrait of Shufei Yuchi, which is installed in a glass frame. There is a line of small characters written in the lower right corner. It was painted the day before yesterday.
The portrait of Shufei was just placed on the low cabinet with the frames of others. Yang Lihua put the frame back and then picked up her portrait.
This portrait was completed six days ago. Yang Lihua looked at her portrait and felt that she was holding a mirror in her hand. She saw another self inside through the mirror.
There are many portraits, including the queen, the concubines, and the portraits of princes such as Yuwen Weihan, Yuwen Weicheng, and the princesses. They are filled with tables, which look a bit crowded, or "lively".
These are all portraits painted by Yu Wen Wen for his family and are "updated" every year.
Yuwen Wen placed portraits of his family in his residence, Yang Lihua also placed portraits of Yuwen Wen and his children in her dormitory, and the same is true for other people (her).
Looking at the portraits, Yang Lihua felt Yuwen's deep affection for her family. As one of them, she felt very happy.
"Okay, Meng Niang can move."
As the voices were heard in his ears, Yang Lihua stood up and walked towards the source of the sound. By the window, Yu Wen Wen drew a portrait of Zhang Zhaoyi, which has been successfully completed.
Yuwen Wen took the tea handed over by Yang Lihua, drank it all in one go, and looked at his paintings, quite satisfied. Zhang Lihua, who had been sitting still, stepped forward and looked at the portrait Yuwen Wen painted for him, and was amazed.
The full names of the two people, Zhaoyi, Zhang and Concubine Yang, have never been made public. Whenever the external women come to the palace to pay homage to the queen, and the queen takes the internal women to meet, the two people never participate.
Therefore, the identities of the two were still not revealed, and many people only knew that they were "Zhaoyi, Zhang, and Yang, concubine."
The two "Lihuas" don't know each other's identities.
However, for Yuwen Wen, the pleasure brought by the double Lihua is really great. From time to time, the "Lihua combination" really makes people think that "the king will not go to court early from now on."
His women enjoy whatever they want. The "combination" is varied and everyone enjoys it. Of course, Queen Yuchi Chifan is an exception. Except for the "sister group", there is no need to "group" with others.
Yuwen Wen ordered people to put away the portraits and frame them within a specified period of time. Seeing the sun setting, the two beauties were ready, so he hugged them left and right, hugged them two "Lihuas", and made an agreement in advance:
"Hey, I agreed to have a meal first and then 'talk'."
"The 'debating' tonight must not exceed twelve o'clock. There are still important things to do tomorrow. You must get up early and not be late."
The two beauties whispered: "Yes/Yes..."
"Then I'll agree that at twelve o'clock, I'll have to call the gold and withdraw the troops!"
......
"The Black side has completed its operation, and the White side has begun to act!"
In the hall, on the front wall, there is a huge chess board erected. The chess board lattice is hexagonal, and the various patterns on the plate represent mountains, rivers, and hexagonal chess pieces are constantly fiddled with by people using long poles.
The chessboard is made of iron and the chess pieces are magnets, so the chess pieces can be fixed on the vertical chessboard. The hall is full of seats, and the chess viewers are all soldiers in military uniforms. No matter their age or status, they can't sit upright and look at the chessboard quietly.
Both sides of the game operate in the left and right compartments, each with their own small chessboards, and the chess watcher is watching the big chessboard in this hall called "Martial Arts Hall" and watching the "development of the battle situation".
The first seat in the first row is of course the position of Emperor Yuwen Wen. Today he came here to watch the war chess performance to see how the students performed.
The martial arts lecture hall is located in a new school. The full name of this school is "Chang'an Army Higher Education". The name is simple and crude, neither used allusions nor has it anything to do with the gorgeous rhetoric. It has no literary talent at all, and its name is like boiled water.
But this is the effect Yuwen Wen wanted. He was too lazy to use a gorgeous name. He thought that the school name was simple and direct, so that it would be clear at a glance.
Chang'an Army College is a military academy established by Yuwen Wen and an important tool for him to implement military reform. Although the school has only been established for two years, various systems have been established to recruit students from the entire army and the generals.
This military school has complete facilities and a strong faculty. It is all long-standing generals on the battlefield. From time to time, it is an epoch-making school.
Of course, Yuwen Wen must be the position of principal.
He wanted to train a new generation of military generals to provide a large number of qualified officers for the expansion of the new army, and the students could only be loyal to him, the principal, the Emperor of the Great Zhou.
Yuwen Wen has been fighting on the battlefield for more than ten years, and has experienced countless wars of all sizes and sizes. He has never lost his achievements and has made great achievements. Now that he has started teaching, no one dares to question it, and he deserves his name as the principal.
The principal (the emperor) came to watch the war chess performance of the top students, which made the students very excited, but while they were excited, their attention was gradually attracted by the chessboard.
The "battle situation" began to be "eered fiercely", and the team formed by top students "take the black first". After the initial mobilization of troops, they have begun to attack with their opponents.
Yuwen Wen suppressed his tiredness and covered his mouth and yawned gently. Last night, the two "Lihuas" had a very powerful combat power. The left and right attacked like "golden dragon scissors", cutting him, the true dragon emperor, into an ecstasy.
All the prior agreements became clouds, and the attacks continued overnight, which made Yuwen Wen unable to stop and naturally lacked sleep.
Fortunately, he was not late this morning, and now, he was interested in watching the game and seeing how his students would deal with the famous chess player "Scissors Hand".
