After rebirth I became the tyrant's little white lotus

After the bamboo paper was made, Bai Miao no longer used white silk or bamboo slips for her daily calligraphy practice.

Originally, it was difficult for Bai Miao to write while holding the brush, and it was even more difficult to write on the white silk and bamboo slips. Since he changed the bamboo paper, his handwriting has improved a lot.

"It seems that Miaomiao's handwriting still needs bamboo paper to match." Emperor Wu looked at Bai Miao's achievements and couldn't help teasing.

"Your Majesty, this bamboo paper is really easy to write on!" Bai Miao didn't admit that it was her fault.

He gestured and said: "These days I still call Qing Dai, Shi An and the others to continue making paper, and they can do better in the future. Good characters naturally need to be matched with good paper!"

"Okay, okay, what Miao Miao said is right." Tu Xiuting chuckled, and he tapped the tip of Bai Miao's nose, "Your character has a preliminary shape, and you can practice writing articles from tomorrow onwards. It needs to be experienced slowly.”

"Write articles?" Bai Miao was surprised, "Can I?"

"Let's start with the simple ones," Emperor Wu explained, "Tomorrow, after the court, call Su Quan to come. He used to be No.1 in the world examination, and his articles are among the best in Dayin. It is more than enough to teach you."

Bai Miao was ashamed, such a teacher is too powerful, but what about herself?It's just a little spicy chicken, which is probably what a king and a rookie look like.

"Your Majesty, asking Mr. Zuo Xiang to teach me, isn't it a bit of a fuss?"

To be honest, Bai Miao is a bit vain.

"It's his honor to be able to teach you." Emperor Wu snorted, Bai Miao was number one in his heart, and those like Suquan and He Wenzhou might not even occupy a position.

"Then I have to work hard..." Bai Miao murmured, no matter how bad he was, he couldn't embarrass Suquan, it seemed that there was a long way to go in the future of learning.

Ever since the writing of articles was put on the agenda, Bai Miao's calligraphy practice time was taken up by Suquan.

Suquan is worthy of being a talented person in the world examination. When he taught Bai Miao, he started from the most basic of the articles. Some classics and anecdotes were interspersed in the course, at least Bai Miao sounded interesting and could immerse himself in it.

In addition, despite Suquan's desolate appearance, the lectures are still somewhat lively and interesting, and the changes in the words used are unique, which is much better than Emperor Wu's straightforward teaching times!

Because Bai Miao himself is determined to be able to go to court in the future, so he is very serious in the process of learning.But ancient articles are not so difficult for a modern person. In daily speech, Bai Miao can get used to the combination of vernacular and classical Chinese by Emperor Wu and others, but it is not the same thing in writing.

In those articles, almost all of them were large paragraphs of classical Chinese, Bai Miao felt his head hurt when he read it, but for the future, he must work hard!

Bai Miao's large characters could barely be read, and with the existence of bamboo paper, it was much easier for him to write articles.

On this day, Suquan and He Wenzhou had to deal with affairs outside the palace, so the task of checking homework fell on Emperor Wu.

Because just finished homework, Bai Miao has already taken Qingdai and Shi An to the small kitchen to find food, so only Emperor Wu is alone in the imperial study, looking down at the "composition" that Bai Miao just handed in.

The homework left by Suquan the day before yesterday was to ask Bai Miao to write an account of his understanding and perception of Dayin's history. The content was either difficult, or it was difficult to express. Holding the fist-thick bamboo slips and studying them all day long, I finally wrote a small composition with barely five hundred words.

There are only more than 500 words, but it is really difficult for Bai Miao.

In the imperial study room, it was extremely quiet.

Emperor Wu held the bamboo paper in his hand, and scanned the article with sharp and serious eyes.

He looked at it, and suddenly frowned.

After a long time, he put the bamboo paper aside, with a meaningful smile on his face.

After Bai Miao came back from looking for food, he saw Emperor Wu folded his hands on his abdomen, leaning back on the chair.

"His Majesty?"

Bai Miao was a little nervous, he didn't want Emperor Wu to feel that his results were poor.

"Miaomiao, come here." Tu Xiuting waved.

Bai Miao sat down obediently, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

Emperor Wu smiled lightly, "Tell me, how do you understand it?"

When Bai Miao heard this, he immediately sat upright, like a primary school student being randomly checked by the teaching director, serious and nervous, "I have read several scrolls of bamboo slips before, and I have a preliminary understanding of Dayin's history. Before Dayin, the previous dynasty was The entropy dynasty, after the founding emperor conquered the country, the orphans of the entropy dynasty disappeared, and Dayin also began its initial development."

"At the very beginning, all the etiquette and law continued in the entropy dynasty. After the second emperor succeeded to the throne, Dayin's own characteristics gradually emerged..."

The Entropy Dynasty can be regarded as an ancient dynasty with a history of more than 900 years, but the last emperor was fatuous and incompetent, which led to its decline; and Dayin was only a nation active on the prairie before the establishment of the capital, but they were brave and good at fighting, and their leaders had unique characteristics. Only then did Wisdom win the Entropy Dynasty in one fell swoop, completely turning an ethnic group into a dynasty, and gradually develop in the north.

But it is also because Dayin's predecessor was a tribe, so they lacked the study of etiquette and legal system, so in the first few decades they used the results of the entropy dynasty, which also led to Dayin people under the influence of the previous dynasty system. Qingwu, it was not until Emperor Wu succeeded to the throne that this situation was completely reversed.

With the passage of time, when the second Emperor Dayin succeeded to the throne, the Dayin dynasty gradually gained its own characteristics bit by bit. According to these generations of emperors, the changes made by Emperor Wu are undoubtedly the biggest.

After Bai Miao learned about these histories, he doubled down on Tu Xiuting as his male god.

Listening to Bai Miao's intermittent explanation, Emperor Wu nodded, "Not bad."

Bai Miao's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, what do you think of my article?"

Tu Xiuting lowered his head, and his eyes fell on the bamboo paper again, "The idea is good, but the structural expression is not rigorous enough, not regular enough..."

Emperor Wu paused, his fingertips touched the paper, and said: "Miao Miao, your writing method is too straightforward. Although it is easy to understand, it is not the mainstream of this era."

At the very beginning, Dayin's articles were even more obscure, all the result of learning from the same entropy dynasty, but after the development and changes of Dayin people, it was a little more concise; but because of the entropy dynasty's style The impact of the article is too serious, resulting in a relatively complicated format of the article, which is quite different from what Bai Miao wrote.

"Okay..." Bai Miao sighed.

Seeing that little lotus was not in high spirits, Emperor Wu touched the boy's cheek, "There is progress."

"That's fine!" Hearing these three words, Bai Miao regained her spirits, after all, it was such a joy to hear the words of affirmation from her male god!

"But..." Tu Xiuting suddenly spoke again.

"What?" Bai Miao continued to be nervous.

"Miao Miao," Emperor Wu tapped a few places on the bamboo paper with his fingertips, "The traces here are for stopping?"

Bai Miao turned her head to look, and then realized that it was for the convenience of distinguishing those uninterrupted characters, and in the process of writing, she gently left a few small dots with the brush.

It was very small, almost negligible, but Emperor Wu saw it squarely.

In ancient times, there were no punctuation marks, and Dayin was no exception.But Bai Miao has long been used to the sentence segmentation and layering of punctuation marks during the nine-year compulsory education. For him, this sudden change cannot be adapted in a short time, so he borrowed small words when writing articles. Use dots as punctuation to let yourself know where to stop and where to end...

Bai Miao originally thought that this trace would not be noticed, but he didn't want to be mentioned by Emperor Wu, and even just said it on top of his intention.

"That's right!" Bai Miao nodded in surprise, he didn't expect Emperor Wu to understand so well.

When Tu Xiuting himself read Bai Miao's article for the first time, he noticed the dots under certain characters, but he didn't think much about it; Existence is at the place where the literal sentence pauses, disconnects.

At that time, Emperor Wu thought that he was thinking too much, but when he read it for the third time, this feeling became more and more obvious, which made him have such a guess.

The smile on Tu Xiuting's lips deepened. Although they are used to articles without pauses and transitions, they still have to work hard every time they read the scriptures; but today, Bai Miao's articles are surprisingly smoothly.

He thought, if these small points can be applied to everyone's articles, it will be a lot more convenient!

"Miaomiao, is this what you read from the ancient books?" Tu Xiuting asked.

"That's right..." Bai Miao blinked, and suddenly gave a sly smile, "Your Majesty, isn't this much more convenient?"

Emperor Wu nodded, "Indeed."

The layers are clear and the pauses are obvious, so you don't need to watch and understand by yourself, which saves a lot of effort.

Bai Miao said with a smile, "I did this for convenience, but if it affects the rules of the article, I won't use it next time..."

"Can use."

"What?" Bai Miao was taken aback.

Emperor Wu repeated, "It can be used."

He pinched the tip of Bai Miao's nose, "Miao Miao, what else do you not know?"

"There are many more..." Bai Miao approached with a smile, "After all, only keeping the sense of mystery can attract His Majesty more!"

"Then I look forward to the day when all of them are discovered."

Tu Xiuting sternly said, "I want to apply these points to all of Dayin's articles."

Bai Miao opened her lips, but did not speak.

This time, he never expected that his unintentional actions would bring new changes to Dayin.

Bai Miao thought for a while, although he knew how to use all the punctuation marks, but some content in this era is not very understandable to others, and even he himself is not a professional, so he can't explain it clearly.

Rather than misleading others because of this, it is better to just use "dots" as sentence breaks in the simplest answer. As for semicolons, full stops, and exclamation points, Bai Miao does not expect to be able to explain clearly one, two, three of them. .
