Famous and beautiful Tang Dynasty

"Pu Guang, you are out of touch. This was invented by the teacher's disciple, and the teacher will show off in front of Grand Master Li Gang this time. Hahahahahaha... Think of Li Taishi's surprise The expression on the teacher's face makes the teacher very happy."

"Pu Guang, go back and ask my grandson to bring three hundred quill pens to the master first. Of course, the master will not ask him for nothing, ten coins for each, what does Pu Guang think?"

Kong Yingda asked.

"The price of ten coins, teacher, is indeed too high. Besides, why does the teacher ask for so much?" Wu Puguang asked puzzled.

"Of course it is for the [-] students of the Imperial College. Ten cents is not expensive. The teacher's students are all the children of aristocratic families. Counting ten cents is really too low. A quill pen is one hundred cents. This teacher It's up to you, otherwise, how could it appear that this pen is so precious? Besides, the teacher has carefully checked that the hose on the goose feather is transparent and hard, so it would take a lot of trouble for my disciple to come."

Kong Yingda said solemnly.

Wu Puguang's body trembled, and he almost couldn't stand still.

This teacher turned his face faster than flipping a book, and it soared ten times in an instant.

However, Wu Puguang was very happy about such a turn of events, and wished that the teacher would make a big reversal in the plot and just pay for a quill pen, wouldn't it be flattering.

Wu Puguang happily bid farewell to his teacher Kong Yingda, and immediately returned to Wannian. He still had to pass on the order of [-] quill pens that the teacher gave to Lin Ran.

Early the next morning, Wu Puguang and his wife Wang Yan boarded the carriage to Linjiacun.

As the head of a county, Wu Puguang can be said to be conscientious.All the big and small villages in Wannian County have left his footprints, deep or shallow.

The reason why I brought my wife, Wang Yan, was purely to let her go to the mountain village to experience the breath of nature.

After all, with my hard work day and night, my wife has already confirmed that she is happy.

This news is enough to soothe the gloom in Wu Puguang's heart in the past few years. Since he recognized Lin Ran as a student, Wu Puguang feels that he has been living a colorful life.

Without Mrs. Lin Ran, maybe she is still suffering from a heart disease and cannot get better.

Thinking of these things, Wu Puguang couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Let's come here this morning. Yesterday, the Queen's birthday, I also drank a few more glasses, and I am a little tired." His Majesty Li Er looked around at the ministers above the court hall and said slowly.

"Your Majesty, I have a request." Just as everyone was about to leave the court, a voice sounded above the court hall.

Everyone looked sideways.

"Kong Aiqing, what do you want to play?"

His Majesty Li Er saw that it was Kong Yingda who played the performance, and immediately asked gently.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty. Datang has added another wonderful thing."

When Kong Yingda opened his mouth, His Majesty Li Er and the officials cheered up.

As we all know, Kong Shangshu is not the one who speaks freely.

He never talked too much about things without shadows, and now he just said congratulations to His Majesty. It must be a great good thing, and it is worthy of Kong Shangshu's excited performance at the court.

His Majesty Li Er's eyes lit up, and the exhaustion all over his body instantly disappeared without a trace.

His Majesty Li Er knew Kong Yingda's temperament very well. Since he openly said the word congratulations in the court, it can be seen that there must be something truly worthy of congratulations.

"Kong Aiqing, you might as well just tell me, what is the reason for this?"

"Your Majesty, my student Wu Puguang is now serving as the county magistrate in Wannian County."

"Well, I know that." His Majesty Li Er replied.

"A student taught by my student Wu Puguang, who is my grandson, recently invented a new type of pen. After using it, I was very surprised. It is really a wonderful creation, which greatly improves the writing speed and saves paper. It is the blessing of His Majesty, the fortune of Tang Dynasty."

What Kong Yingda said in the last two sentences was that His Majesty Li Er was very happy.

"Aiqing, there is something real, I want to take a closer look." His Majesty Li Er immediately said excitedly.

"Your Majesty, if there is no real object, how dare you boast about going to Haikou privately, and even kiss Your Majesty to see it in person."

After speaking, Kong Yingda presented the quill pen.

The servant quickly took the quill from Kong Yingda's hand and handed it to His Majesty Li Er.

"I thought it was something worth celebrating? It's just a goose feather, and it's worth Kong Shangshu's entrustment to waste the time of all officials?"

Prince Taishi Li Gang said displeasedly.

"Could it be that the grand master looks down on the things made by the old master's apprentice?"

"Since the creation of Chinese characters by our ancestors, the best brush is the brush. How can it be changed by a little boy with yellow hair?"

Grand Master Li Gang looked righteous and confident.

"You, you...do you dare to compete with the old man?" Kong Yingda glared and said.

"How to compare?" Li Gang showed no sign of weakness.

"Let your majesty and the officials be a witness. You and I write together. I use the quill pen made by my grandson, and you write with a brush. Whoever writes the most words within the specified time will win? If the old man can't exceed If you have five times the number of words, the old man loses, and the old man will apologize to you in the court, otherwise you will have to apologize to the old man in the court."

Kong Yingda said solemnly.

"呵..." All the officials gasped when they heard the words.

Five times more words, Kong Shangshu is probably crazy?

"Haha...haha, what a big joke, the number of words is five times that of the old man. Could it be that you, Kong Shangshu, really think that the old man is old and look down on the old man?"

Li Gang said angrily.

"The old man thinks that five times is too little. If you are not convinced, you can give it a try." Kong Yingda responded without showing any weakness.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for your ministers. Kong Shangshu is asking for humiliation. Your Majesty will uphold justice then."

Prince Taishi Li Gangqi played.

"Kong Aiqing, are you sure you want to compete?" His Majesty Li Er asked with a smile while holding a quill.

Just now His Majesty Li Er took a closer look at the quill pen, which was really amazing. However, Kong Shangshu said that he could surpass Li Gang's writing speed by five times, which made His Majesty Li Er deeply suspicious, so right now he is looking forward to it. Come to a real competition, and it has been confirmed that what Kong Shangshu said is true.

"Your Majesty, the subject is naturally determined to compete, but I feel that since it is a competition, it is better to have a bit of a prize."

Kong Yingda said with confidence.

"A lottery? Well, I agree to Kong Aiqing's request. I don't know what is a lottery?"

His Majesty Li Er asked with great interest.

"I don't know what Master Li wants?"

Kong Yingda turned his attention to Li Gang. Of course, he hoped that Li Gang would take the initiative to say something, so as to save himself from being talked about in the future!

"If you can be five times faster than me, I will no longer object to your student Wu Puguang entering the official department and working with you in the same department."

Li Gang said loudly.

Kong Yingda was overjoyed when he heard that, he didn't expect Li Gang to take the initiative to speak out his inner thoughts.

Originally, Wu Puguang's talent was enough to stay in the Ministry of Officials, but Li Gang, who had been at odds with Kong Yingda at the time, strongly opposed this matter, saying that the master and apprentice together would affect the unity of officials, and other unreasonable excuses. Under his opposition, many officials also stood with him.

As a result, Wu Puguang could only go to Wannian County to serve as the county magistrate in the end, which indirectly led to the drowning death of his youngest son.

If he stayed in Chang'an City and served in the Ministry of Officials, these tragedies might not have happened.

"Okay, Your Majesty. You have to testify for me. Last time, my student had to go to Wannian County because of Grand Master Li's obstruction. This is something that all civil and military officials know well. Today I will definitely use my A student of a student, the quill pen he developed defeated Li Taishi to prove how stupid he was to prevent my student from staying in the official department."

Kong Yingda's resonant voice resounded over the Xiande Hall, which surprised many people!

This is not Lao Kong's previous style!

Kong Yingda, the master of Confucianism who has always been low-key, has become high-profile today, which really surprised the officials.

"Okay, Kong Aiqing. I promise you."

His Majesty Li Er sat on the dragon chair, smiled and agreed.

In fact, His Majesty Li Er felt a little indebted to Wu Puguang for going to work in Wannian County. To be honest, Wu Puguang's talent can be counted among the few in the entire court.

If it wasn't for Li Gang's strong opposition, there would still be a group of officials joining in the fun, His Majesty Li Er would have kept them in the Ministry of Officials to assist Kong Yingda in the education work of the entire Tang Dynasty.

His Majesty Li Er issued an order, and all the ministers stepped forward to help break the scene.

It's completely a show that watching the excitement is not a big deal!

After a while, two tables were placed on the court hall!

"Fang Aiqing and Du Aiqing, come and be a notary."

His Majesty Li Er spoke to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling and Minister of War Du Ruhui.

"Sir, obey the order."

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui answered in unison.

"Are Grand Master Li and Kong Shangshu ready?"

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling asked solemnly.

"The old man has already prepared it." Li Gang replied straightforwardly.

"The old man doesn't need to prepare at all, so why not ask him to write a few crosses first!"

Kong Yingda responded confidently.

"Big words..." Li Gang gave Kong Yingda a particularly bright look, and counterattacked.

"Whether it's brazen or not, we'll see later, why bother to be so quick-talking?"

Kong Yingda made up her mind today, not to make Li Gang Li Taishi mad, and never give up to fight with Li Taishi.

My precious apprentice finally found a piece of uncut jade, and just used it for his master, and the master's master to express the bad breath in his chest, wouldn't it be a pleasure!

"Hmph! It's not certain who is going to be quick for a while, the old man has never seen such a brazen person!"

Li Gang was so angry that Kong Yingda forced him into a rage.

Seeing that the anger between the two sides was intensifying, His Majesty Li Er spoke in time to prevent the further deterioration of the situation.

Chapter 74 Eyes open, talking nonsense (please recommend, please collect)

"The two lovers are both master-level figures, and they can be called the Taishan Beidou in the academic circle of the Tang Dynasty. Why bother to show off your quick tongue? Don't hurt the peace, I think it's better to start the competition early."

His Majesty Li Er's steady voice sounded from above the Xiande Hall.

Let Li Gang and Kong Yingda immediately shut up.

"Since the two masters are ready, the official will announce the start."

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling looked at Li Gang and Kong Yingda and said.

"Okay, let's get started!"

Li Gang couldn't wait to say that the paper, inkstone, pen and ink are already ready!

Kong Yingda also smiled and nodded to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling.

"start……"

As soon as Prime Minister Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Grand Master Li Gang picked up the brush and began to write vigorously!

On the other hand, Master Kong Yingda Kong is completely like a master, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

Seeing that Li Gang had filled a piece of paper with eloquence, Kong Yingda still looked calm and breezy.

What's even more exaggerated is that he still leaned over to see what Li Taishi wrote?

His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile. It seems that Kong Yingda is thunderous and rainy!Just when the officials thought that the overall situation was settled and Li Gang would win.

Kong Yingda shot without haste.

This shot doesn't matter, it's like the water of the Yellow River, rushing endlessly, and it's like the Yangtze River flooding out of control!

The ministers only saw Kong Yingda and bent down.After lightly tapping the quill pen on the inkstone, he began to write.

Kong Yingda never stopped in the middle.

Even so, the officials couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing for Master Kong!

Because he wrote too late, he had already started, Grand Master Li Gang had already written a piece of paper, and he still went to tweet about what others wrote!

How much experience do you think Master Kong has?

It can hold the stars and the sea!
