Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

Chapter 269 Waiting Illness (3)



Chapter 269 Waiting Illness (3)

After getting up, the two went to the bathroom to take a bath, and then Yongqi listened to Hu Jiajia playing the piano in the sitting room. Amidst the sound of the piano, he looked at the volume of Ming Dynasty Qian Gu's "Dinghui Temple Picture" hanging on the wall, silk, ink and color, from the mountain gate The statues from the Buddhist hall to the palace are all clearly depicted, using a lot of light vermilion in a realistic style.Dinghui Temple is near the famous Twin Pagodas in Suzhou. Su Shi once had a good friendship with the monks of Dinghui Temple.The inscription on the stele "Mr. Dongpo's Left Ink" engraved in the fifth year of Zhengtong in the Ming Dynasty records: "Su Wenzhong, the two officials in Hangzhou, returned to guard Huzhou, and traveled to and from Huzhou. It may not be impossible not to visit Dinghui Temple, so there are many inscriptions in the temple." Self-titled on the picture : "Xin Youli Spring Day, I made a picture of Dinghui Temple for Master Xuanzhao. Qiangu." The seal "Qian Shubao" is printed.

Next to it is an ink couplet written on orange auspicious cloud pattern silk, which says: "The sound of the wind in the qin has turned calm, and the heart is like the still water, and the mirror is always bright."It is the handwriting of the first emperor, and it is sealed: it is difficult to be a king, to be vigilant in the morning and in the evening, and to be in Yongzheng.

On the long table under the painting and couplets is a white jade hollow-carved flower ring incense burner, which is as warm as fat. This is the reward that Ibor brought back from the palace last time to cook for Huang Ama. He Zhu was given by a Copper clam dragon ear stove.Sandalwood is lit in the white jade incense burner, which complements the paintings and couplets, giving it a kind of elegance and beauty.

Yong Qi knew that most of the things in Hu Jiajia's house were gifts from the Queen Mother, and she chose to hang this picture because it was her first time in the Gusu Palace.

After Hu Jiajia played a piece, he praised her for learning the piano with Master Lu, and she made great progress, and then asked what piece it was, but he had never heard it before.Hu Jiajia said: This is the "Narafa Song" in the "Kurmu Chan Qinpu". It is said that the ancient Wu Ziqiu went to Kyoto to visit friends, and when he was walking in a monastery, he heard lamas chanting sutras with a clear and clear voice. It is the last sound of Naluo Faqu.The next day I took the qin to the monastery again, begging them to recite it again, and then played the qin and composed it into Guqin music, so it has been passed down.Master Lu said that there are very few records in the handed down piano scores, and he also got it by accident.I know my brother likes sandalwood, so I will definitely like this song.The old ancestors also liked it, and asked me to play it every time when they took Zhezhe to go.

Yong Qi smiled, and looked at the painting on the wall, and the jade incense burner smoking cigarettes.I thought: She is always silently doing it for me.

The two chatted about piano music for a while, and Hu Jiajia regretted that he had moved out of the palace again because of Zhe Zhe, so he couldn't learn piano with Master Lu.She likes the "Qin Yuntu" drawn by Yiboer for her very much, and it has been hung in the east room.Yongqi said: "What's the matter, just teach Master Lu to come to the palace to teach. I will teach someone to invite someone later. Nanfu is not far from here, and he will also go to Nanfu."Then he looked at Zheng Ying beside him, Zheng Ying immediately nodded and smiled again.

It turned out that Zheng Ying was an eunuch from Nanfu. He entered the palace at the age of 15 and sang operas for ten years. His superiors liked it. Once the emperor went to Nanfu to watch a play, the superiors took him to introduce Li Yu, and Li Yu also fell in love with him, so in the end he went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Huang Xing's situation was similar to his, but Huang Xing They were born in Jingshan Royal Theater, and they didn't know each other. After arriving at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he was in the team collecting the emperor's clothes, and Huang Xing was in the cleaning team in the front hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and they had no contact with each other.

Since Liu Quan and the young eunuchs in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were killed that year, the selection of eunuchs in the Hall of Mental Cultivation has become more stringent, and the eunuchs under the Hall of Mental Cultivation were all changed the year before last because of Bailian's education. Brother, dodged a bullet.He stayed in Nanfu or the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but it was not as good as having a way out now.

Jiajia was overjoyed.When Yongqi's hair was dry, she braided his hair in front of the mirror.After braiding, put the braid in front of him, facing the mirror, holding his head with both hands, eyes rolling, and smilingly said: "Little ancestor, are you satisfied?"Yong Qi smiled at her in the mirror, then turned around and said: When I come here from now on, I want you to braid my hair, not Zheng Ying.She held up his face, looked into his eyes, and said, "I want to have such a smart, good-looking, kind-hearted son!"

Yingluo received the things from Prince Rong's mansion, looked at the twelve cups with Haishi, and saw that they were five-colored masterpieces from the Kangxi imperial kiln, the texture was very thin, two bahts were light, and the number was set according to the monthly order.One flower and one month, accompanied by poems, twelve cups are painted with winter jasmine, apricot blossom, peach blossom, peony, pomegranate, lotus, orchid, osmanthus, chrysanthemum, rose, plum blossom and narcissus.I am very happy again, thank you Haishi.Hai Shi laughed and said: "They are all from my own family, thank you!"

In addition to the Apple Zun and the Luna Cup, Yong Qi and the two presented several other things.

A Song Dynasty Jingdezhen kiln celadon-white glaze engraved potting pot and bowl.The pouring pot has a straight mouth, a lid, and a lion-shaped button on the top of the lid, folded shoulders, curved flow, crank, and ring feet.Peonies are drawn on the shoulders.The injection bowl has a sunflower-petal mouth, and the bowl is in the shape of a six-petal flower with a ring foot.The pot and bowl are covered with green and white glaze.Song Mengyuan's "Tokyo Menghualu" said: "Most people in the city have extravagant customs, and their tolerance is slightly wider. In any hotel, no matter who is in the hotel, only two people sit opposite each other to drink. You also need to use a pair of injection bowls, two pairs of plates, and fruit and vegetables. There are five plates each, and three or five fruit bowls, which is nearly a hundred taels of silver." It shows that in the Northern Song Dynasty, the pots and bowls were widely used.Yingluo knew the goods naturally, so she was very happy.

A black painted rectangular table.She suddenly remembered that this was the one placed in front of the eighteen arhat kang screens in the west room of the back hall of the Jingu Garden.Take a closer look, square and neat, light and pleasant.The desktop is decorated with pictures of people in the courtyard with a panoramic view, and the guests come and go, or look around in the pavilion;In the background, the full moon hangs high, the clouds are lingering, the pines are strong, the grass is luxuriant, and the fireworks are peaceful and quiet.Rectangular holes are carved on the waist, and round mother-of-pearl pieces are inlaid on it, and the tooth plate is inlaid with a circle of folded branches, flowers and fruits, which is dazzling.So it was placed on the marble Arhat bed instead of the original kang table.

Then he ordered the servants to take out the five kang screens with red sandalwood frames and light yellow double-sided tapestry from the warehouse and put them behind the kang table, and then instructed Tweety to get a grape ornament and put it on the table, which was carved from beeswax. , reddish-brown in color, stocky and simple, the carved grape vines and fruits are numerous, round and plump, heavy and ready to fall, which makes people salivate.

There is also a folding fan, which I sent to Aunt Yingluo by name.Yingluo unfolded it and saw that the gold-painted fan was covered with gorgeously dressed Water Margin characters. The inscription read: "Heart is in Shandong, body is in Wu, floating in the rivers and seas. If he is Ling Yunzhi, he dares to laugh at Huang Chao for not being a husband." It is a fan painted by Yi Boer and written in running script.And this poem is the next que of "Xijiang Moon" written by Song Jiang in the Water Margin Book.

A picture of a hundred children is embroidered and hung, and folk dolls are embroidered all over the white ground in groups of three or four celebrating the New Year. They are colorful and full of fireworks and bustle.Yingluo also liked it very much, because of its simple color, she taught Haishi to hang it in her room.What I don't know is that this picture of a hundred sons is embroidered by Ziwen next to Mr. Wu Guiren. Although Ziwen is not outstanding among embroiderers in the embroidery workshop, this embroidery method is not complicated and has a rough taste.

After Fu Heng came back, Yingluo ordered dinner to be placed on the new kang table, took out a few beige-glazed golden bell cups that were similar in color to the pot, and used the pot to warm the wine for drinking.Fu Heng saw that she chose Yugong Tonghua wine tonight, the purple-black wine was really beautiful in the beige glass, and said with a smile that she took it everywhere, even the younger family.Yingluo wore a moon-white stand-up collar with crystal round buttons pinned to the neckline, a peach red flower-sprinkled white wool jacket, and a big red crinkle bat-pattern cotton skirt. She smiled triumphantly and said, "What haven't I seen?"Shou is to look down on them!Others want to give it away, but I don't want it.Fu Heng knew that she was saying that all officials, big and small, wanted to send gifts to Yujing Garden, but Yujing Garden didn't accept them at all, only leaving greeting cards and letters.

Yingluo sighed again: Ibor is deeply in my heart.And this child Yongqi likes Tang Yin's Taoyuan landscape style, and he is doing things in the world with the heart of being born in the world. Who does the emperor not like?Fu Heng smiled again, and said: "Only if you don't compete with it, nothing in the world can compete with it."Yingluo was holding the wine glass, and she looked at Fu Heng in amazement when she heard the words, and Fu Heng also looked at her with sparkling eyes, and then she touched her own wine glass with hers, and she suddenly understood that Fu Heng was in the fifth elder brother's place. For the real mind on the matter, look at the "Zhao Mengfu's Running Script and Wine Virtue Scroll" hanging on the wall opposite the Bogu rack, and drink the wine with a smile.

A few days later, Prince Rong's Mansion received a set of six banners from Yujing Garden in return, "Taoyuan Picture" on paper, which was painted by Dong Bangda's eldest son, Dong Gao.Dong Gao was born honest and gentle. He was born in the fifth year of Qianlong. He was only 20 years old. He was married and had been preparing for the scientific examination at home.Because his father was familiar with Fu Heng, and he was taught by his father since he was a child, he is good at calligraphy and painting, so Zhongyong Gongfu hired him as Yingluo's painting teacher. "Taoyuan Tu" was written by him at Yingluo's request.

The Chen family was very regretful that they could not get married with King Sang, and it was reasonable to hear that the Sang family chose the Wang family.Yun Duan believed that the Chen family was willing to get married and was not a powerful person, so after marriage, he offered to establish some business contacts with the Chen family, and went with Tie Pu to meet Master Chen for an interview.After Mr. Chen saw him, he went back and praised his wife and sons, saying that Muhua was unlucky, that King Sang had been deposed, and that the Sang family was allowed to be involved in business, and the emperor appointed him to marry him. It can be seen that a comeback is just around the corner, the emperor Sure enough, he favored the royal relatives, and the Sang family was still a giant in Mobei.And Miss Chen never saw Sang Yunduan again, and forgot about the flower market that day.

Pudawa's son, Aihui, is now one year old. He is very big. The couple always jokes about using him to practice qigong in the future. Grandma can't be separated for a moment, sleeps with grandma, and grandma should go with her when she goes out.

The emperor gave Pudawa's foreign house Renjia, which had a deep foundation. After it was transferred to Pudawa's name, it added the royal court's franchise business.In addition to purchasing furs in Kazakhstan and Kyakhta for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he also operated large-scale grain, copper and salt transportation and sales with the Fan family of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Since the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, the Fan family in Shanxi has been a well-known wealthy businessman in Manchuria and Mongolia. Jin, known as "foreign copper merchants".

Copper and iron are military supplies, the country's most important weapon. Pu Dawa also visited the coast in person, and brought back a large number of Ryukyu waist knives for the emperor last time.Fan's family has salt production in twenty prefectures and counties in Hedong.The Fan family also undertook the logging business in Musixia, Husutai and other places outside Zhangjiakou, felling and transporting a large amount of timber to the mainland for sale, compradoring Rehe, Yuanmingyuan and various palaces in the suburbs of Beijing.

The emperor asked Pudawa to buy wood plants for the Qingyi Garden that Pudawa was building.Imputawa made another great contribution, and he urged Director Shaowen's son to stay in charge of the firm and receive remuneration and rewards. The emperor also agreed.The Ren family shop is still operating as before, and the name has not been changed, but it is no longer owned by the Ren family. Hundreds of people in the Ren family are still holding their jobs, and they are more prosperous, and they are working hard.Fan Jiaben borrowed from the Ministry of Internal Affairs all the year round, and the annual interest paid was about 50.00%.But the compradors didn't care about the extremely high interest rates. The business privileges they obtained from the Ministry of Internal Affairs made their profits far exceed the interest payments.The emperor gave Pudawa as usual, and Pudawa had no objection.

Seeing that the Ren family shop became an imperial merchant, the Chen family's father and son recalled the Sang Wang smuggling case that suddenly broke out, and they fully understood that the outer house was actually monitored by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. tax evasion.The imperial court took advantage of the Sangwang smuggling case to take advantage of the already strong capital and foundation of private merchants, so much effort could be saved. The Ren family is a Shanxi merchant, so the Ministry of Internal Affairs chose the Ren family, and wanted to find a new face to act as an agent, so as to facilitate control .Tie Pu seized this opportunity and jumped up from a new household in the outer hall, but he was able to get through the door of the House of Internal Affairs, and it was no small feat that he had a good fortune in both the Prince of Mobei and the House of Internal Affairs.

The Song family was severely punished in the smuggling case. Although their property was not confiscated, it was already in ruins.The headquarter of the Ren family was originally in Zhangjiakou, but now the strength of the Jingzhong branch has greatly increased, and it has become a wealthy man in both Zhangjiakou and the capital, and the headquarters has even been transferred to the capital.Only the Chen family and the Ren family are left in the foreign halls, which are actually the Chen family and Tie Pu.However, Tiepu is an imperial merchant and has its own royal business. It seems that it wants to check and balance or supplement the Fan family, the number one Shanxi merchant, and the business of the Chen family does not overlap. Shuffle the cards...Tip won't tell, and they won't ask, they just get closer to him.

Aisha felt that the emperor was all because she was Concubine Rong's best friend.Pudawa wanted to give another part of her gold to the emperor, thanking him for his trust in him, and supporting the return of the Torghut tribe to the east. The emperor only took a little symbolically.Yingluo and Fu Heng laughed and said that the emperor gave Pudawa and his wife so many benefits, and Pudawa's return to vulgarity was worth it, and he had to thank Aisha!The opportunity is great, the imperial court can provide him with a world that Baijiao and Jinchuan can't imagine, and they won't be able to leave!

Pu Dawa is one of the few guests in Yujing Garden, because he is not a member of the officialdom and has had many contacts with Fu Heng since he came to the capital, and he is still doing important errands for the emperor.He and Fu Heng often met in the "Jingsi Hall", but seldom talked to Yingluo. Apart from greeting Yingluo politely, he only praised Yingluo's "Picture of Capturing General Guan Yu" in the open room of the study.Yingluo knew that he had such a temperament, and he adhered to the rules of Tantric Buddhism, he didn't approach women, and he didn't care about them. He was also complacent about "The Picture of Capturing General Guan Yu".

This silk painting is six feet high and eight feet wide. It depicts the story of Guan Gong flooding the seven armies and capturing Pang De alive in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The characters in the painting are majestic.Guan Yu sat high on the rocky slope above the rock steps, turned sideways to the right, dressed in a blue turban, green robe, and armor, neatly dressed all over his body, with a red face, phoenix eyes, long beard, and a great body. It has an aura of "mighty and unyielding" that seems to be subdued by Pound, and an expression of pity and anger for him.

Pound, who corresponds to it, is located on a small flat ground under the rock steps, but he is turned sideways to the left. Except for short prayers, his whole body is naked, and he is tied to a wooden post by two generals. And turned his head, with a demeanor of being unyielding and letting himself be dealt with in the face of danger, he seemed to want to turn his head around and force him to hear the trial.This is the court painting of the Ming Dynasty that Fu Heng was rewarded by the emperor after the king of Huangjiao was killed, and the emperor knew that "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was her favorite book.

There is a plaque hanging outside the main room of "Jingsi Hall", with the four characters "Knowing Strictness and Nourishing Qi" written on it, which is the same as the four characters in "Yicui Hall". The original work of Mi Fu's "Ancient Poems" and Chen Baiyang's "Ink Brush and Flower Volume" inherited from Nalan's family. The word "Er Miao" was taken by Yingluo to imitate the emperor's "Sanxi Hall".Fu Heng is also a great fan of this Baiyang mountain man who "breaks a drop of ink and makes all kinds of beauties". There is only one painting hanging in the back hall of Yujing Garden, which is his "Vase of Lotus".It is a work written by Chen Chun after he was drunk. The pen is smooth and the ink is smooth, without sticking to the formula.

Fu Heng also particularly likes Chen Chun's cursive script on the top of the picture axis. The more coquettish and shy. Cui Luo still rolls her sleeves, and the pink bows her head. The predecessors can still think about being romantic, but the picture is still left. The water is dry and the flowers are dying. There is no need to worry about it. As long as you are white, why go boating."

The author has something to say:

[The first Fan family of Shanxi Merchants] is well-known in history. It is the largest comprador of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is what we call the imperial merchants, such as the Xue family in "Dream of Red Mansions", but the Xue family and the real Fan family are not the same. language.The history of the Fan family and the business they run are as shown in the novel.

[Dong Gao] (1740-1818), courtesy name Yalun, nickname Cane Lin, was born in Fuyang County, Hangzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang Province (now Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province), and was born in Shuntian Prefecture (now Beijing City), a minister of calligraphy and painting in the Qing Dynasty Home.The eldest son of Dong Bangda, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and his father are known as "Big and Little Dong".In the 29th year of Qianlong (1764) in the examination, the next year's meeting, ranked third in the first class, and won the third prize. Emperor Qianlong changed it to the first in the second class. It looks similar to Yongzheng's change of Zhang Ruoai's signature. Decrease in form but increase in value.Later, he served as the vice president of Sikuguan and took over as the vice president of "Siku Quanshu".In the 44th year of Qianlong (1779), he served as Minister of Military Aircraft.In the same year, he was awarded the Forbidden City Riding Horse.In the 52nd year of Qianlong, Prince Shaobao was added, and he was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Taiwan and Gurkha were successively determined, and they were listed as heroes.

In the fourth year of Jiaqing (1799), Dong Gao was 60 years old. He was promoted to a bachelor of Wenhuadian University (i.e. prime minister) with his concubine, editor, minister of the Ministry of industry, minister of military aircraft, and bachelor of Dongge University. horse riding".Shi Zhinan's study military aircraft has been traveling for 40 years.In the 17th year of Jiaqing, he was the leader of the military aircraft, and he became an official in the 23rd year.Dong Gao is good at calligraphy, good at painting, and even more familiar with military affairs.He returned to his hometown five times, lived a simple life, was approachable, never arrogant, and was highly praised by his neighbors.Dong Gao died in the 23rd year of Jiaqing (1818) at the age of 79.Six days after Dong Gao's death, Emperor Jiaqing came to pay homage in person. In his mourning poem, there was a sentence "Only the article is passed on to his nephew, and there is no money to buy the farm", and he personally allocated funds to build the "Donggong Temple".

[Zhao Mengfu's Running Script Ode to Wine and Virtue Volume] This volume is the full text of Liu Ling's "Ode to Wine and Virtue" written by Zhao Mengfu for Qu Zemin in the Western Jin Dynasty. It is a masterpiece of Zhao's calligraphy.Liu Ling is one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest", and his "Ode to Wine and Virtue" fully reflects the mentality of the literati in the Jin Dynasty.

Zhao Mengfu (1254-1322), courtesy name Ziang, nicknamed Songxue Taoist, also known as Crystal Palace Taoist (or Shuijing Palace Taoist), was born in Wuxing (now Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province), an official, calligrapher, and painter from the late Southern Song Dynasty to the early Yuan Dynasty , Poet, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's eleventh grandson, Qin Wang Zhao Defang's descendants.In the 23rd year of Zhiyuan (1286), Zhao Mengfu was recommended by Xingtai censor Cheng Jufu, and rushed to Beijing to be respected by Yuan Shizu, Wuzong, Renzong, and Yingzong.Tired official Hanlin Bachelor Chengzhi, Ronglu doctor.In painting, he pioneered a new style of painting in the Yuan Dynasty, known as "the crown of the Yuan Dynasty".His style of calligraphy is charming, elegant, well-structured, and well-rounded. He created "Zhao style" calligraphy, and he is also known as the "Four Great Masters of Regular Script" together with Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, and Liu Gongquan.

His wife, Guan Sheng, is extremely intelligent, good at calligraphy and Ci, and is good at painting bamboo, plum and orchid, with exquisite brushwork.The running regular script written by Duan Sheng is quite similar to that of Zhao Mengfu, and the brushwork in "Xuan Ji Tu Shi" written by him is excellent.There is a famous "Wo Nong Ci": "You and I are full of love; there are many loves, and the heat is like fire; take a piece of clay, twist a you, and shape a me. Break the two of us together and mix them with water. ;Twist another you, and then mold another me. I have you in the mud, and you have me in the mud: I was born in the same quilt as you, and died in the same outer coffin." "Zhao's family" has been famous for generations, and three generations have come out Seven great painters.Zhao Yong, Zhao Lin, and Zhao Yanzheng were famous for a time.Wang Meng, a great painter in the Yuan Dynasty, was born to the daughter of Zhao Mengfu Dao Sheng, the grandson of the two.

-

In his later years, Zhao Mengfu lived in the first rank, and he was very expensive. However, Zhao Mengfu was a descendant of the Song Dynasty and entered the Yuan Dynasty as an official. He was still at the mercy of his ambitions and was often depressed because of self-ashamedness.Guan Sheng once wrote four poems of "The Fisherman's Poetry" to persuade him to go back. In one of the poems, he wrote: "Life is so precious that you are a prince, and you are not free if you have a floating name. It is like a boat, playing the moon and singing the wind to go back. Hugh." There is also a word that also reads: "Looking south at Wuxing Road for four thousand, when will you go to the edge of Yunshui? Fame and fortune, pay for it, smile and put the fishing rod on the boat." It reflects her yearning for leisure and freedom. The ordinary life, indifferent to the fame and fortune of the mundane world.

Emperor Qianlong liked his calligraphy and paintings very much. Qianlong's own calligraphy was Zhao Ti, and he also drew many paintings in imitation of Zhao Mengfu, which was mentioned in the novel "Shuangyuan Picture in Shazhu".

["Niangu Shitie"] is the famous Mi Fu's "Shu Sutie", which was originally called "Nimu Gushitie" and "Zhuti Shitie". "Shu Su Tie" is 27.8 cm long and 270.8 cm long. "Shu Su" refers to this volume of precious silk woven in the east of Sichuan in the fourth year of Emperor Renzong's Qingli reign (1044).The black silk column on the scroll is also woven, so it can be seen that it is specially used for writing.Lin Xibao, the prefect of Huzhou, kept it in his home for more than 1068 years, and it was mounted as a scroll in the first year of Shenzong Xining ([-]).At that time, many calligraphers only dared to write a few characters on Shu Su, and it was not until Mi Fu wrote eight full poems on it.

This work can be said to be Mi Fu's masterpiece in his early years.The speed, weight, retraction and turning of the pen are not limited to one method, and can be retracted freely.The structure is long and tilted, showing agility.The same characters are written in different ways, making the most of the changes.The style of writing fully reveals Mi Fu's personality traits of "uneven to the vulgar".It was hailed as the most beautiful post in China by later generations.Due to the roughness of Shu, he went all out when writing, so Dong Qichang said in the postscript of "Shu Su Tie": "This volume is like a lion fighting an elephant, and I will go all out to it, and it should be a lifelong cooperation."Because silk fabrics are not easy to absorb ink, there are more dry brushes, which makes the ink color throughout the text vary from thick to light, like a thirsty galloping spring, and it is more exciting and moving.
