It may take several years to practice calligraphy, but a few months is enough to become literate. I just have a headache with the handwriting of scholars these days. Many people don't know how important it is to write well.
Of course, Li Po has not yet come into contact with people who show off their writing skills. It would be great if they can write well for the petty officials and officials below. If you expect their writing to be neat and beautiful, then you really think highly of them.
Well, Li Bi's handwriting should be pretty good, but it's a pity that she doesn't bother to show it. That's right, no, she's still injured.
Li Po doesn't even care. If you keep writing hard for us, we can write flowers for you to see.
The time for practicing calligraphy was set by Li Po himself. It was not long. It was an hour every morning and evening. He would not give those two idiots too much time to be proud of themselves.
After practicing calligraphy, I tried to read. The book was completely handwritten, which was wrong. It was dictated by Li Bi and copied down by Yuen Long. It was full of Yuen Long's ugly spider-like characters...
..
The content sounds interesting, it is actually a Buddhist scripture.
Obviously, this was Li Bi's enlightenment book at that time. The meaning of the book is very simple, and it is all words that guide people to do good. At first glance, it is something for children.
It can be seen that the influence of Buddhism on the culture of the Central Plains at this time was extremely profound. It is said that Emperor Wen Yang Jian was raised by a nun when he was young.
In fact, it is quite a contradictory thing. At that time, the Central Plains was also an extremely powerful dynasty, and those living north of the Yangtze River, regardless of the Hu and Han Dynasties, were all martial arts.
In such a world, Buddhism has become the mainstream. It sounds quite mysterious, doesn’t it?
Of course, you can also look at it this way. The period when Buddhism flourished has always been the most difficult years for people's lives, which is almost what people often call the troubled times.
The worse their lives are, the more people are willing to think about the afterlife, or the paradise in the west.
Needless to say, Buddhist scriptures are the main leisure reading for nobles nowadays. It is said that they can calm the mind, broaden the mind, etc.
But Li Po has no interest in this thing at all. It can be said that he is a complete atheist.
Therefore, he was very painful when reading Buddhist scriptures, because every word in it seemed to tell him that this thing was really untrustworthy.
Moreover, when Buddhist scriptures are read out, they must be sung, which is euphemistically called Buddha Singing.
Calmly, Li Po didn't feel anything at all, he just felt drowsy. What made him happier was that Li Bi looked silly when he read Buddhist scriptures.
After reading the Buddhist scriptures, the task of reading and practicing calligraphy comes to an end for the time being.
The four people in the room stood up solemnly and bowed their heads to each other, full of ancient charm.
Then, both Li Chun and Li Bi in Yuen Long had a smile on their faces, because it was almost dinner time.
After tasting Li Po's cooking, even Li Bi had to admit that even if he went back to Chang'an, he might not be able to find such a cook in his house.
Li Po got busy. At this time, Li Bi wanted to go out to bask in the sun and walk back and forth for a few laps. It was obvious that the girl was very energetic and very active.
Li Po then took Li Chun and Yuen Long to prepare meals...
Inside and outside the kitchen, things soon became lively. When it was time to eat, Li Wu and others would show up on time.
As Li Po's bodyguard, Li Po was asked to cook for them. This kind of treatment could not be found even in the Sui Dynasty.
However, things are easy to do when there are many people. Li Po, who was in the kitchen, did not do much by himself now. After giving instructions on this and that, if he did something wrong, he would be punched, kicked, and scolded again and again.
He has the image of a majestic chef, and he is also very rude. Who gave him the authority?
What we cooked for lunch today was beef brisket, which took a long time. Li Bi's figure had already appeared near the kitchen twice. Apparently, she was a little impatient with the wait.
It was not until after noon that two steaming pots of stew were prepared, filled with aroma, and placed in the lobby of the castle. Then a circle of people sat around and feasted.
A small table was set up for Li Bi at the back, accompanied by Yuen Long and Li Chun.
Li Po didn't care about that much in the past. He still wanted to make a round table or something. Can he also make a knight of the round table in the future?
But looking at the guy who was devouring his food with a ferocious expression, Li Po felt that he might as well forget it.
After lunch, the crowd of people waited and dispersed in a hurry. Most of them went horse racing and walked. It was a clear day and there were only a few entertainment activities in the vast fields.
Whether it is the guards of the racecourse or the herdsmen of the racecourse, when they come together, apart from horse racing, they are wrestling. When you are in a crowd with them, all you can smell is the strong smell of male hormones.
Li Po also has something to do. At this time, he will first take Li Chun and Yuen Long, ride on their horses, and go out for a few laps.
Then he returned to the castle and continued to exercise his body and practice fists, feet, swords and spears.
When the strength is almost exhausted, rest for an hour, and then practice bow and arrow.
Li Bi will still appear around them and continue her cause of finding trouble. This is really an example of how unbearable idleness is.
In the evening, after dinner, it was another hour of reading and practicing calligraphy. Then, Li Po would drive Li Chun and Yuen Long to bed on time.
I hid in the house and began to familiarize myself with official duties.
However, within a few days, he was ordered by Li Bi to move this matter to before dinner.
Li Po ignored her at all.
But the next night, a scene from A Chinese Ghost Story was staged. The next day, Yuen Long told Li Po with rare seriousness that if any gossip spread, it would be difficult for the prince to explain it to him.
Damn, this isn’t Butterfly Lovers? As for that?
The next day, Li Po used sparring as an excuse to beat up Yuen Long.
However, when it was getting late, I still obediently went into the house and flipped through the records. Like a ghost, Li Bi appeared at the right time. This is wrong, that is wrong, Ma Ling should do this, and Ma Ling should do that.
Li Po's ears pricked up.
The two doctors who were guarding here then came over. Because it was time for Li Bi to take medicine and change her medicine, the annoying woman was finally taken away.
However, Li Po was not happy for long. Two female soldiers from Mayi, part-time maids, who actually knew some medical skills, followed Li Bi.
Li Po felt that the second generation official was really not a human being.
This time, Li Bi became completely lively, and her range of activities was greatly expanded. It was said that she was eating well, sleeping well, and her wounds were healing faster.
This kind of healing method surprised Li Po. Women, it is really the mood that determines everything...
