Chapter 67: Painter Cai Ying


Of course, if Li Haocheng chooses to use the Mei Poetry Party held by Wang Derun's family as a springboard, then it will inevitably be marked by the Wang family's traces.

For most people, this kind of trace has more advantages than disadvantages, but Li Haocheng is an exception.

Before he determines the goal of Lingtai Patriarch, he does not want to get closer to any force, unless there are special circumstances, such as this A plum poetry gathering.

Li Haocheng, who has lived here for half a year, is somewhat familiar with the Plum Poetry Club held by Wang Derun's family.

He knows that this poetry club has always had a tradition, that is, the top three in each poetry competition will receive a bit of Qi as a gift from the Wang family. .

Although it is not very powerful, it is better because there are no future troubles.

It is a kind of investment of the Wang family.

This is also an important reason why every Mei Poetry Festival can be held smoothly.

As the organizer of the Plum Poetry Festival, the Wang family naturally has its own privileges.

The people invited by the Wang family in previous years to help out must be one of the top three, so few people nearby will shirk the Wang family's request.

Even if something really happens, they will.

A spare person takes the place.

Now Wang Derun has come to invite him specially.

Although his face looks normal, if you look closely, you will find that there is urgency in his eyes, and it is obvious that there is some big trouble.

After thinking about it, Li Haocheng used the jade talisman's clear light to bless his eyes again, and observed Wang Derun's Qi.

He immediately found that the light red luck on his head, which originated from his family, was being shrouded in wisps of black Qi, and there was still a steady stream of it.

Continuous black energy is gathering from all directions, and the light red energy representing the Wang family is showing signs of collapse.

Li Haocheng was convinced in his heart, but he pretended to be hesitant on his face.

He waited until Wang Derun asked again and again before reluctantly agreeing.

"Thank you so much, Brother Liu.

Let's give this to Brother Liu as a gift of thanks."

Wang Derun said, taking out a newly copied manuscript and handing it to Li Haocheng.

"Nine Movements of Calligraphy" Li Haocheng's eyes lit up after taking the manuscript.

This is one of the unique skills of the Cai family among the sixty-four families of the Tang Dynasty.

The so-called "Nine Movements" refer to the nine ways to use calligraphy, and the nine ways to practice calligraphy.

It is said that as long as the calligrapher masters the method and practices diligently, even without the guidance of a famous teacher, it is a superior calligraphy technique that can achieve the "wonderful state" of calligraphy.

Although the volume of Nine Movements of Calligraphy in front of me is only a hand-copied version, it is still an irresistible temptation for Confucian monks who practice calligraphy.

Li Haocheng, who is known as the Three Masters, naturally showed an overjoyed gesture, picked up the volume, and carefully After watching, Wang Derun was thrown aside.

Wang Derun also smiled and said nothing.

After saying a few words to Li Haocheng, he left the pavilion.

After he left, Li Haocheng raised his head and glanced at him.

When Li Haocheng took over the manuscript just now, he sensed that his own energy was also fluctuating.

About one-third of the black energy that originally belonged to Wang Derun flowed towards him.

At this time, when he looked at it, he saw the light red energy that was retreating steadily.

The luck has stabilized again, firmly blocking the loss of one-third of the black energy.

Li Haocheng sneered in his heart and guessed the Wang family's thoughts, but now this situation can be regarded as everyone getting what he needs.

After this incident, he is a passerby.

He lowered his head and continued to read through the nine calligraphy movements.

Among them, the explanations of writing, turning, hiding the front, hiding the head, guarding the tail, rapid movement, sweeping brush, astringent movement, and horizontal scales were really eye-opening for Li Haocheng.

He originally relied on various external forces. , the third state of calligraphy that he forcibly broke through was also consolidated little by little, and he stretched out his hand to write a paragraph in the air.

The book originates from nature.

When nature is established, yin and yang are born; when yin and yang are born, the situation emerges.

After Li Haocheng wrote this, one of the core ideas of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy, a glistening white light suddenly bloomed, and a faint fragrance of ink surged.

Compared with the font he had just practiced writing, Li Haocheng's writing at this moment was more smooth.

It feels better than before.

More than a month later, in a separate courtyard of the Wang family.

Dozens of beautiful and graceful women aged around 20 years old shuttled among the crowd, holding small plates in their hands and delivering various delicacies and wines to the Confucian scholars.

They drank wine and wrote poems with each other, and the atmosphere was quite lively.

One of the Confucian scholars from an aristocratic family who knew something about the inside story looked at Wang Derun and asked: "Then Liu Yuanzong is here, can he really be too lazy to play with that old stubborn Cai Ying?"

Wang Derun drank down the wine in his hand and sighed: "I don't know if you can stop it or not, but at least Liu Yuanzong has nothing to do with this matter.

With Cai Ying's temperament, he won't do anything to him, and With him as a buffer, as long as my family returns the things, things will be almost the same.”

"It's a pity that Liu Yuanzong, after today, his reputation will be completely ruined."

A kid from a family next to him who also knew the inside story smiled maliciously.

He is also a calligraphy practitioner.

Unfortunately, he is nearly forty years old and is still in the calligraphy class.

Going back and forth, I have always wanted to see the Nine Movements of Calligraphy collected by the Wang family, but I have no way to do it.

Now I see that a genius who has seen the Nine Movements of Calligraphy is unlucky, naturally I feel a little schadenfreude.

And this person's words also triggered a rebuttal from another person next to him: "He read the Nine Movements of Calligraphy.

Even if his reputation is ruined for a while, he may not be able to rely on the Nine Movements to enter Taoism through calligraphy and enter the realm of Confucianism in the future.

Brother Wang, Your Wang family is not afraid of provoking another Cai Ying."

Wang Derun poured himself another glass of wine.

After drinking it, he said, "Brother Liu came here today.

My father told him the hidden story and lent him the replica of the Nine Movements of calligraphy.

Afterwards, he and our Wang family just Passersby."

"Here" several disciples from aristocratic families looked at each other and immediately knew that this Liu Yuanzong was not simple.

He either had some background or had a high level of cultivation, so they changed the subject and talked about other things.

On the other side, Li Haocheng took the replica of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy collected by the Wang family and sorted out the cause and effect of the matter bit by bit.

The difficulty that the Wang family is facing now is a great painter named Cai Ying, who is a descendant of the Cai family who has the original nine styles of calligraphy.

However, Cai Ying is an outlier in the Cai family.

As a family, the Cai family specializes in Taoism, Confucianism, and historians.

However, Cai Ying prefers painting and Taoism, and even uses it as a foundation.

This is a very rare thing in the Cai family. .

Originally, Cai Ying, as a branch of the Cai family, could do whatever she wanted, and no one cared.

Cai Ying's father was a Confucian monk who was halfway to the realm of Confucianism.

He once studied in the Cai family and brought back a copy of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy, which is the book Li Haocheng is reading now.

The Wang Runde family, which also focuses on Confucianism, learned that Cai Ying loved painting and Taoism, so they deliberately sought to obtain the replica of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy in Cai Ying's hands.

After Cai Ying's father passed away, they planned a plan to By purchasing, you get the right to use the replica of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy.

At the same time, the Wang family used some tricks in the contract to allow the right to use it to be extended indefinitely.

Afterwards, Cai Ying reacted, although he was angry at what the Wang family had done, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

Until he went out to travel and became a great painter who was half a step ahead of a Confucian scholar two years ago, he came back to cause trouble for the Wang family.

The reason for his hatred was that he felt guilty that he had lost the copy left by his father, and was unable to enter the realm of great Confucianism.

Such a reason made it difficult for those who wanted to break up the fight.

The Wang family was also forced by Cai Ying to have no choice but to make an agreement with him.

This year, the Wang family will send a student who practices the Nine Movements of calligraphy to the Mei Shi Festival. , to deal with Cai Ying's embarrassment.

No matter what happened afterwards, the Wang family returned the replica of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy and made an oath that from now on, the manuscripts of the Nine Movements of Calligraphy would never be published.

The Brother Liu mentioned by Wang Runde was the student of the Wang family who was originally prepared to deal with Cai Ying's difficulties.

However, he suddenly had an "accident" more than a month ago and was unable to participate in the Mei Poetry Festival, and the other students had already agreed.

The backup Confucian scholars also had "accidents" one after another at the same time.

In desperation, Wang Runde went to find Li Haocheng.

According to the posture, Cai Ying really regards the Wang family as the last threshold in front of his great Confucianism, otherwise he would not use this method to force the Wang family to give up a family member.

Obviously, he wants to give the Wang family a retribution.

Li Haocheng chuckled in his heart.

He didn't care much about Cai Ying.

After all, he was also a perfect existence in the ghost and fairyland.

He was not much worse than a great painter who was equivalent to a half-step scholar.

When fighting, he You may not lose.

The strength is not inferior to that of the opponent, so naturally he has confidence.

Now, the focus of Li Haocheng's thinking is how to use Cai Ying's incident to accumulate a lot of reputation at once
