Empress Zhangsun's words were the imperial decree. After she finished speaking, her personal maid immediately went forward to dismiss the eunuchs guarding the Hall of Shangxue.
Li Chengqian and Zhangsun Chong personally led the way. Empress Zhangsun then walked over step by step.
The Hall of Shangxue was different from other palaces. It was a palace specially used by princes and princesses to study, so one could see what was going on inside from the outside. The people inside had their backs to them, so they could not detect if there was anyone outside.
Empress Zhangsun quietly approached and looked inside the Hall of Shang Xue with curiosity. The princes and princesses were sitting there obediently and there was nothing unusual about them.
Zhangsun Chong couldn't help but take a closer look, only to see Mr. Zhang holding a piece of paper in his hand.
"It's a bit far and I can't see it clearly, but Mister Zhang has always liked ancient books, so he must have obtained the only copy of the previous dynasty from somewhere. BenGong was also deeply worried about it back then, and was most afraid that Mister Zhang would copy the inscription and order people to copy it.”
"Now that I think about it, a strict teacher produces an outstanding disciple. Your Majesty is already a respected person.”
Empress Zhangsun seemed to recall many things from the past because of the marriage of Changle.
Zhangsun Chong nodded in agreement.
Li Chengqian swallowed his saliva. His mother and Zhangsun Chong couldn't recognize it, but he could. He had seen the handwriting with his own eyes yesterday. After boiling the medicine, Li Shimin had kept it.
However, at this moment, he looked at Empress Zhangsun, who was immersed in her memories, and did not know how to speak.
Fortunately, even though Descendant Zhang was old, his voice was full of energy as he said,""All of you have seen these words. I wonder what you think of them?”
The descendants of Zhang Clan had obviously accumulated their prestige for a long time. After they finished speaking, no one dared to speak.
In the end, Chang Le, who was sitting in the center, said,""Sir, Changle thought that these words were elegant and refined, and that they were not from the mortal world. They must have been written by a calligraphy master in the city.”
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have specially taken out this set of calligraphy.”
The descendant of Zhang looked at Chang Le and stroked her beard. For some reason, she thought of the marriage between Qin Huaiyu and her. For a moment, the gaze she looked at Chang Le softened.
He felt that the two of them were really a match made in heaven.
He said," Changle is right. When I first saw this character, I was also shocked. If I hadn't seen it written in front of me, I'm afraid that even if His Majesty came, I wouldn't want this character to be written by a teenager."”
"I've wasted my entire life, indulging in calligraphy and calling myself a master, but in the end, I haven't entered the door. A day's work of a young genius is equivalent to a hundred years of old books!”
"It's really embarrassing!"
Zhang Houyi seemed to be emotional, but it shocked everyone.
Especially Empress Zhangsun, who was standing outside the Hall of Shangxue.
The fact that Zhang Descendant was able to teach in the Hall of Shangxue was not only because of his relationship with Li Shimin, but also because of his high status in the Tang literary world. He had even presided over several imperial examinations.
Many scholars in the Tang Empire had to respectfully address him as their teacher. Zhang Descendant's achievements in calligraphy were unparalleled. Firstly, he could copy Li Shimin's collection at any time. Secondly, his calligraphy was excellent. In Chang 'an, one of his words could be worth hundreds of gold coins. However, such a figure respected a young man so much?
If he wasn't crazy, then she must have heard wrongly. Empress Zhangsun was confused.
Zhangsun Chong couldn't help but ask.
"Is there really such a genius? A teenager writing better than Mr. Zhang?”
In the Hall of Shangxue, Prince Li Tai stood up and bowed to the descendants of Zhang.""Sir, is this calligraphy really written by a young man? You said that you saw it with your own eyes yesterday.”
" That means that this person is in Chang 'an. I'm really curious who has such attainments in calligraphy. If I can see his face, I'll definitely ask for a piece of calligraphy."”
"The words are like the person. I believe that the gentleman who wrote this is also handsome and dignified.”
Li Tai's words were neither servile nor overbearing, but it made everyone's thoughts fall.
As princes, they had been taught by the best Confucian in the Great Tang, and each of them was proficient in the four arts. But now, this unknown person had such a good calligraphy.
They believed that after today, his name would spread throughout the Great Tang, because from the mouth of Zhang's descendants, he was the Emperor's teacher.
Descendant Zhang gently pressed his hand down on Li Tai. There were only teachers and students in the Hall of Shang Xue, not officials. That was why he dared to do this.
The door of the Hall of Shang Xue was pushed open with a creak.
Zhang Houyi's expression immediately darkened. When he was teaching, even His Majesty would be waiting outside. Who would dare to be so bold?
However, when he saw the person who came, he didn't have the time to get angry.
Empress Zhangsun bowed and said,""Greetings, teacher. I wonder if I can enter the hall to listen.”
When Zhang Houyi saw Empress Zhangsun, the beard on his face twitched. Then, he smiled lovingly and said,"Come in, but you trespassed into the Hall of Shang Xue. Today, you will have to write a hundred words when you return.”
Empress Zhangsun was not angry. Her parents had passed away when she was young and she had grown up with her brother. In fact, Zhang Houyi was also considered half of her family. There were some faint tears in her eyes, but she lowered her head and said gently," I admit my punishment. Thank you, sir."
With Empress Zhangsun like this, Li Chengqian and Zhangsun Chong didn't dare to raise their heads. They followed behind her and closed the palace door.
Changle, who was sitting in front, turned around to look at Empress Zhangsun and smiled playfully. He seemed to be very happy to learn from his mother.
Empress Zhangsun also said,"Sir, this student also wants to see this piece of calligraphy. I wonder if it's possible."”
Zhang Houyi nodded. Zhangsun Chong immediately trotted over like a lackey. He held the paper with both hands and walked to Empress Zhangsun more carefully than he was holding an antique.
Empress Zhangsun stretched out her slender hand and gently received it. Her eyes were like water as she carefully read every word. She felt the beauty of the words and felt happy. In terms of calligraphy appreciation, she was probably better than Li Shiming. After all, she had nothing to do in the harem all day and liked to write. She was proficient in several kinds of calligraphy, but she had never seen who wrote this paper or what style it was.
She couldn't help but look at Zhang Houyi and bow respectfully as she did more than ten years ago."Sir, this piece of calligraphy has already reached the peak of calligraphy. Who wrote it? Please enlighten me and let me understand!”
