The Horse Road (the bottom floor) in Fengle Middle Tower is not very good. The singing and selling table in the center of the lobby looks even more dim because it is far away from the windows on all sides. In order to allow buyers to see the calligraphy and paintings clearly, Su Dalang and Mo Niangzi asked someone to light a gardenia lamp next to each painting table. They used a gardenia fruit-like lampshade to cover a lampstand of more than half a person, and lit huge candles or lamp oil inside. Because the lampshade is made of thin paper and gauze, it is very easy to ignite, so a lantern servant was arranged next to each gardenia lamp, both holding the lamp and looking at the painting table, so that guests would not touch the gardenia lamp or take away the scroll.

Wu Haogu, Zhao Ji, Mi Youren and Ji Yi would certainly not go to see "Photographs of Li Shishi" and "Dance Pictures of Mo Niangzi". After they came on stage, they went straight to Su Dongpo's "Poems on the Sea".

If the factors of speculation and flattery are excluded, this character can be regarded as the most valuable item among the items sold today.

In ancient Chinese art and cultural relics collections, the value of calligraphy works has always been higher than that of paintings. It is hard to say why, but this is the pricing mechanism anyway.

Su Dongpo's name had a high value during the Yuanfu period of the Song Dynasty! Not only because he was one of the four families of the Song Dynasty and a famous talent at that time, but also because he was exiled to Danzhou at the age of 62 in the fourth year of Shaosheng, he was "advanced" to "see the sea" in Yalong Bay. At that time, Hainan Island was not an international tourist island, but a remote island with malaria. At the age of 62, he basically couldn't come back.

Therefore, Su Dongpo's calligraphy is a very rare and extremely rare product!

However, Zhao Ji did not show any interest in Su Dongpo's calligraphy. It was not that he did not like it, but that Su Dongpo was unlucky because a "Wutai Poetry Case" was almost killed by Song Shenzong, and later became a typical figure of the old party. So after Zhezong took power, he immediately regarded him as the chicken that killed the chicken to scare the monkey, and kicked him to Hainan Island to fend for himself. Su Dongpo's calligraphy works were labeled as the old party. If Zhao Ji bought this character back to the royal palace, there might be someone who would gossip in front of Zhao Xu.

As the prince and Wu Haogu, it is not a mistake for Mi Youren to play together. It is no big deal to be obsessed with Li Shishi's erotic tricks, but it is different to show sympathy for the old party...

Although Zhao Ji let a group of "playmates" around him coax him, he is not confused at all on the issue of principle.

After taking a look at Su Dongpo's calligraphy, he turned to Fan Kuan's "Snow Mountain Picture". Fan Kuan was later called one of the three great landscapes in the Northern Song Dynasty. He was a great painter in the early Northern Song Dynasty. He painted "freehand painting" landscape paintings. He is known as "making ideas about landscapes and writing about the true bones of mountains". The mountains he painted were thick and dignified, with a magnificent and magnificent sense of majestic and steep. It is not the same as Wu Haogu's "realistic landscapes" in Wu Haogu. Such landscape paintings are not very good, but Zhao Ji is also good at it.

Stopped in front of Fan Kuan's picture, looking at the snow-capped mountains on the paper, imagining the majestic scenery of the mountains and rivers of the north, I felt a little emotional - as a prince, there is no shortage of wealth and glory, but I don't have the happiness of the scholar Shumi who travels around the world and appreciates the beauty of mountains and rivers...

"Okay! Good painting, skillful writing, self-contained... Look at Li Shishi's face is detailed and lifelike, but the background of the clothing is freehand style, but the elegant brushwork is full of spirit, and the brushwork is exquisite and ink is wonderful!

This "Li Shishi's Picture" is so well drawn. Even if the Painting Saint is reborn, it will be like this!"

At this moment, Zhao Ji heard someone reviewing his "Li Shishi Picture", and the comments were very pertinent - "Li Shishi Picture" was Zhao Ji's proud work, and the painting skills used were indeed better than those of the painting saint Wu Daozi of the Tang Dynasty... It was obvious that the man was a person who really understood painting.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ji turned halfway and glanced at the corner of his eyes. He saw an old man in his fifties and sixties who was slightly fat, standing in front of the painting table where "Li Shishi's Picture" was placed, surrounded by a middle-aged man and a young man, shaking his head.

The three of them looked familiar with each other, but they couldn't remember who they were?

"Miss Mo," the old man who had just commented on the painting called Moli over at this time, "I want to write a postscript on this paper painting."

Inscription?

Zhao Ji was stunned when he heard this. Where is this kind of thing? He wrote the inscription before he bought the painting? Who are you? Are you Su Dongpo or Cai Jing?

Zhao Ji was thinking, and the old man spoke again: "I am Cai Jing."

It’s really Cai Jing!

No wonder he looked familiar with his back, Zhao Ji thought to himself, it turned out that the Privy Council was the one who received the orders from Cai Jing! No wonder he could understand his paintings... He really met a soulmate. He couldn't date him now, and if he had the chance in the future, he would have to make friends with him. If he had nothing to do, he would find him to review calligraphy and painting together. It was a beautiful thing.

By the way, that handsome Cai You is his son, and their father and son are indeed pillars of the Song Dynasty!

"It turned out to be Cai Chengzhi, Nu Nu is polite." Madam Mo did not recognize Cai Jing, but she knew that he was among the guests today. She immediately gave a blessing and ordered an old maid to follow her to get the pen and mo.

The requirement for inscriptions on calligraphy and paintings to be auctioned is usually very rude, but it is a different matter if Cai Jing proposes it.

Cai Jing is one of the four great masters of "Su Huang Mi Cai"! His inscription is worth a lot of money. If this "Li Shishi's Picture" was not painted by Song Huizong, then the postscript might be asked to be cut and sold.

When the pen and ink were given, Cai Jing said again: "I will write a poem called "Shi Shi Ling" by Zhang Sanzhong (Zhang Xian)... In the past, Shi Shi was twelve or thirteen years old, and became the leader of Kaifeng Prefecture for this song "Shi Shi Ling".

Today, Shishi will use this paper "Shishi Tu" to spread this stunning appearance to future generations. I borrowed Zhang Sanzhong's "Shishi Order" to serve as Shishi, which has added a little color to this "Shishi Tu".

"Shi Shi Ling" has more than 70 words! It is also written by Cai Jing. Even without "Shi Shi Tu", these words can be worth thousands of words...

Cai Jing found a good way for Wu Haogu and Zhao Ji - no matter how expensive the "Shishitu" is now, it doesn't mean anything. After all, with Cai Jing's handwriting, it's expensive everywhere!

Cai Jing wrote these seventy words very carefully. It took him a while to write them. It was obvious that he had used real skills. Just as he was writing, there were already a large circle of people around him, all of whom were from the nobles and wealthy families, all pretending not to see Zhao Ji. Seeing Cai Jing splashing ink there, they all praised him with thumbs up.

"This paper "Shi Shi Tu" is so well drawn. It is definitely a masterpiece passed down from generation to generation. I don't know who will be lucky enough to collect it in the end."

"I heard that Zhao Xiaoyi is still very young, less than eighteen years old..."

"There is such a young talent in our dynasty, which is really a blessing from God!"

"If you go to the imperial examination with such talent, you may be the best in the world."

"What a young talent! I would have liked to be able to recruit him as my son-in-law."

"Yes, if you have such a son-in-law, what else can you ask for?"

Listening to the endless flattery, Wu Haogu blushed a little for Zhao Ji... This Prince Duan is sure that his talent is talented, but being held like this all day long must be distorted, right?

I guess the life of that Emperor Zhezong is not that easy. Empress Dowager Gao, Empress Dowager Xiang and a group of civil servants Da Qingtian would not coax him like this - Zhao Xu was treated as an emperor, so wouldn't he be coaxed into a foolish monarch if he coaxed him every day?

And His Highness Duan, one is the prince, who should be coaxed and played with; the other is that he is really capable... He has been held by people since childhood and lived in a sea of ​​flattery.

Such people will naturally be easily deceived by others when they become emperors. It is normal to become a foolish monarch, but if they don’t faint, they will be devils.

Zhao Ji also felt that he had passed the crowd when he heard the big guy's flattery. His "Shi Shi Tu" must be good, but "Mo Niangzi Dance Picture" is not bad either, so why didn't anyone comment on it?

Just as he thought of this, he heard someone talk about "The Dance Picture of Mo Niang".

"In my opinion, this "Shi Shi Picture" is still much worse than the "Mo Niangzi Dance Picture" in terms of reality!"

Someone actually told the truth!
