"Cough cough! Mr. Li's eyes are like torches, that kid told the truth!"

Yunshan Courtyard, Li Zexuan coughed awkwardly, and then he told the truth: "The boy wanted to ask for a few words from Mr., but because he was confined at home by His Majesty recently, it was inconvenient to go out, so he had to ask Mr. to come over!"

Li Gang said with a speechless expression: "Our two houses are only a few steps apart. Even if you go out, can your Majesty still trouble you? Besides, there are no outsiders on the Yunshan Mountain, who would be too busy to take such trivial matters away. Tell Your Majesty?"

Li Zexuan was sweating for a while, who told him that his old husband just said "hard-heartedly" two days ago, so he will naturally become a little more careful when he does things!

"Cough cough! Since His Majesty has asked the boy to reflect on himself behind closed doors at home, then the boy must be sincere!"

"Ah!"

Li Gang shook his head, obviously not believing it, but he was too lazy to investigate further, then he said: "As for calligraphy, this old man is far inferior to Dengshan (Chu Suiliang) and Bo Shi (Yu Shinan), how can a mountain master ask for characters? Come to the old man?"

"Hehe! What the boy seeks is the artistic conception of the teacher, and the spirit of the teacher. The gentleman is high-spirited, and the boy must hang his calligraphy at home and study at all times!"

Li Zexuan flattered.

In fact, this guy wants to use Li Gang's calligraphy as a family heirloom for future generations!

Although Li Gang's name is indeed not as famous as Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang's, but Li Gang's own reputation is not smaller than those two. Besides, he is currently in "confinement", how can he go out and invite Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang What about writing? It is unrealistic to send someone to invite them to the mansion, because the friendship between the two parties has not reached that level!

"Haha! Don't put a high hat on the old man, Chief, you need to write something, just say it, don't dislike the old man's ugly words at that time!"

Li Gang waved his hand and smiled helplessly.

Li Zexuan nodded at Xiaohe, who turned and left, and she returned soon, holding two columns of red paper in her hands.

Li Zexuan said to Li Gang: "It seems that it's New Year's Eve. I want to hang two pictures of lovable characters in front of the door to look festive. It's just that this word is a bit difficult to be elegant, so please Mr. Li to come over and inscribe it!"

Li Gang frowned and said, "That's good, what are you going to inscribe, Mr. Shan?"

"I call this couplet, because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so it's also called the Spring Festival couplet!"

"Couples? Shan Chang, come and listen!"

In this era, it cannot be said that there are no couplets, but there is no such thing as "couplets".

In fact, as early as before the Qin and Han dynasties, there was a custom of hanging peach talismans during Chinese New Year. The so-called peach talisman is to write the names of the legendary ghost-killing gods "Shen Cha" and "Yu Lei" on two peach boards and hang them on the left and right doors to drive away ghosts and suppress evil spirits. This custom lasted for more than a thousand years, and it was only in the fifth generation that people began to inscribe the conjunctions on the peach wood.

According to the records in "Song History of Shu Family", Meng Chang, the master of the Later Shu of the Five Dynasties, "removed every year, ordered the scholar to be a word, inscribed a peach symbol, and placed it around the bedroom door. In the last year (AD 964), the scholar Xing Yinxun wrote a poem, and Chang used it. Non-worker, self-proclaimed pen inscription: "Yuqing in the New Year, Jiajie is Changchun."

This is the earliest display form of couplet, and it is also the earliest spring couplet to appear in my country.

After the Song Dynasty, it has become quite common for folks to hang Spring Festival couplets on New Years. Because the appearance of the Spring Festival couplets is closely related to the peach symbol, the ancients called the Spring Festival couplets "Peach Symbols".

Therefore, when Li Gang heard the couplets and Spring Festival couplets, he was stunned!

Li Zexuan had been prepared for a long time, he said without hesitation:

"This first couplet is called smooth sailing and good luck every year, and the second couplet is called "everything goes well, back and forth".

This couplet is not very literary, but the highlight is a festive one, which is a relatively widely circulated couplet in the modern Spring Festival.

Li Gang squinted his eyes when he heard the words, and after pondering for a moment, he nodded in appreciation: "Although it is nothing new to read, it is better than the fact that the confrontation is neat, and these two sentences are also suitable for the occasion! But what does this old man think, your couplet and Taofu Are there some similarities in the same way?"

"Peach talisman?"

Li Zexuan was stunned for a moment, fortunately, he is not an ignorant person. After thinking about it, he finally recalled that a peach talisman appeared in an ancient poem, so he nodded and said, "That's right! This is also called a peach talisman, but I I think couplets are more suitable for it than peach characters!"

Li Gang shook his head, unable to deny. The old man put the red paper on the table, and Li Zexuan hurriedly asked Xiaohe to grind the ink beside him, using the best pine smoke ink.

The Tang Dynasty was a period of rapid development of ink-making technology. From the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the "ink pills" made of lacquer smoke and pine coal were gradually popularized and shaped in the Tang Dynasty. The solid ink ingots in the shape of the ink sticks are getting better and better quality. Famous artists such as Zu Min, Li Yangbing, Xi Chao, and Xi Tinggui made ink with "great texture and luster like lacquer", which are all tributes to the royal family.

Li Gang held the brush in his hands, and kept his mind calm. Sixteen big characters suddenly appeared on the paper. Li Zexuan stared at it and found that Li Gang's words were not as bad as the old gentleman himself said. They were different from the changes in Chu Suiliang's calligraphy. The length is flat, wide and sparse, and it is more different from Yu Shinan's calligraphy, which is dignified and dignified, and full of aeolian spirit. Li Gang's characters are as round as jade, graceful and elegant.

"Good word! Good word! Xiao He, send it to the workshop quickly, and let Fu Bo frame it with high-quality glass. During the Chinese New Year this year, this pair of couplets will be installed in front of our house.

Pass it down from generation to generation! "

Li Zexuan rubbed his palms and laughed.

Speaking of which, his future descendants, even if they are prodigal sons, should be able to eat and drink without worry just based on this couplet, right?

"Yes! Young master!"

Xiao He responded, and then she and Xiao Xi carefully dried the ink on the red paper and took it to the workshop.

Li Gang burst into laughter, and he said helplessly, "Sir, don't be joking. When it comes to calligraphy, Li is far inferior to Dengshan and Bo Shi. I really don't understand why you want this old man to come to inscribe!"

Li Zexuan waved his hand and retorted: "Sir, this is a bad statement. Calligraphy has reached the level of yours. How can you say who is good and who is bad? At most, each has its own merits!"

"Haha! As far as speaking skills are concerned, neither the old man nor Deng Shan and Bo Shi are your opponents!"

Li Gang pointed at Li Zexuan with a smile and said.

Li Zexuan was helpless, what he just said was not flattering, "Forget it, don't talk about that! Sir, sit down and drink at the bar!"

"Well! Now this old man can finally relax and drink! Haha!"

Li Gang made another joke and said.
