Chapter 1,748 The Eleventh Brother

This process did not take too long. The two brothers chatted casually. After a while, Zhao Bao came out with a large tray.

Zhao Xu quickly said to his brother Zhao Si: "Thirteen, go and help Brother Ninth over, he has some sharp eyesight."

"Oh." Zhao Si was playing enthusiastically with a wooden cart made by Zhao Ji. Hearing this, he quickly put it down and went over to show his courtesy: "Brother Ninth, let me help you... oh, this is... this is Brother Huang..."

Zhao Bai was supported by Zhao Si and put the tray on the small table: "Brother Eleven, can you see that I didn't load the film backwards?"

Zhao Xu was already dumbfounded: "This... this is simply amazing."

There is a piece of wet paper spread flat on the tray, two feet long and one and a half feet wide. In the picture, Zhao Xu is sitting on a chair, maintaining the posture he has practiced since childhood. His mouth shape is the same as when he just said "eggplant", but it looks like

It looked like a smile but not a smile.

The picture is very clear. Zhao Xu is originally a pretty handsome person. This kind of pure black, white and gray picture has a kind of temperament bonus, which makes it look even more beautiful.

Zhao Ji pulled up a rope, used tweezers to lift the photo, and hung it on the rope with a clip: "Brother, is this trick okay?"

Zhao Xu couldn't hide his shock: "With this thing, won't your painting skills be useless in the future?"

Zhao Ji secretly rolled his eyes: "This thing is my brother's study of the transformation of still life space into two-dimensional expression. When it comes to painting, every stroke and every color is what the painter wants to convey."

"'The solitary smoke is straight in the desert, and the sun is setting in the long river'. Just like writing a poem, if the words are slightly transformed, the reader will have a different feeling."

"Just like Wang Duwei's Buddhist statue paintings, they are the way to enter the Tao and are the medium for conveying the state of mind. Whether they are like or not is just a lower level thing, just getting started."

"If you haven't reached the realm, you can't say it. Therefore, this camera can never replace painting."

"It takes a lot of time to observe and practice these things before you can develop an understanding of them. It doesn't matter if your brother Wan Hanchen doesn't understand these things."

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand and gave it to him: "You are so proud!"

Zhao Ji was deeply influenced by Wang Shen. In addition to inheriting the art of painting, he also learned the frivolous habit.

However, he was not an emperor, he did not do bad things, and he still rewarded prostitutes after visiting them. This kind of frivolity was not a big problem in today's Song Dynasty.

The Song Dynasty was particularly tolerant of talented people, and Zhao Ji was praised among the people as "a romantic in the Wei and Jin Dynasties".

In fact, Zhao Xu himself was very proud of his smart brother. After beating Zhao Ji, he couldn't help but laugh: "Since the twenty-first degree, my clan has not won the Royal Outstanding Contribution Award, right?"

"With you like Eleven, I can't escape this year's award no matter what. I just don't know whether it should be counted in physics, chemistry, or art."

"I will take this painting away later. On the other day, on the 11th, you can move this set to the palace and give a few pictures to the queen mother, concubine, and empress."

Zhao Ji rolled his eyes and whispered: "Brother Emperor, I also have a set of Hua Suiniang's body paintings there, do you want to see them?"

What a pervert! Zhao Xu couldn't help but slap him again: "You're seeking death again, burn it quickly! Let me know that even I can't save you!"

After pondering for a while, he said sternly: "Well... in order to prevent you from leaving behind any traces, I have to check each card one by one and supervise it myself!"

Zhao Ji: "..."

…

Lady Li's body painting is not good-looking, she is too plump. In the Tang Dynasty, she might have been considered a great beauty, but in the Song Dynasty... Anyway, it was quite off-putting to Zhao Xu.

However, after reading it, he really believed that this younger brother caused such a big disturbance for the purpose of studying the composition of the human body.

My smart little brother shouldn't have such strong tastes.

September is here, one year has passed since the mourning period of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, and it is time to start having fun.

Another thing I wanted to do when I came to the Polytechnic this time was to listen to the first piano piece composed by Zhao Bai - "Spring River with Flowers and Moonlight Night".

The gentle flow of the river illuminates the meadow, and the moonlight illuminates the flower forest like sleet.

Frost is flying in the sky unknowingly, and the white sand on the pavilion cannot be seen.

Zhao Bai's vision is the memory of his childhood, and he may even have no memory at all, but in his music, he expresses his vision in a very mysterious, thorough and beautiful way.

The poem "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" itself is based on the flow of time and moonlight, the changes in light and shadow of scenery and the vicissitudes of the human world as elements. It echoes layer by layer, moves layer by layer, advances layer by layer, and after passing the peak, it gradually becomes the same again.

Withdrawing layer by layer, it finally settled on the loneliness of the falling moon.

Music has a more profound impact on people than painting. Zhao Xu may not be able to experience the emotions in Zhao Ji's paintings, but he can feel the strong longing in Zhao Ji's piano music.

No need to ask Zhao Xu to know that Zhao Bai composed this piece for the Empress Dowager.

Life is endless from generation to generation, and the moon in the river looks the same every year. It also has the meaning of comforting Zhao Xu.

Sad but not sad.

Zhao Xu did not feel that this piece of music was disrespectful to the Empress Dowager as the first piece of music after her death. On the contrary, it was the best gift for his descendants to commemorate her.

…

That night, Zhao Xu took his own portrait and proudly returned to the palace to show off to Queen Meng. He did give Queen Meng a surprise.

So Empress Meng happily put a frame on Zhao Xu's portrait and hung it. She also placed several tables and vases in front of the portrait.

If Su You saw this, he would probably pee on the spot and think that Zhao Xu had died and hold an internal memorial service.

After hearing that Zhao Xu said that he would move the set of things into the palace one day to take a family portrait, and then give it to his brother to paint with fine colors, Empress Meng was also very happy and decided to forgive her brother-in-law for the recent incident of "appreciating prostitutes" to His Majesty.

Trouble.

However, Queen Meng also reminded Zhao Xu that this was a new invention in science and engineering, and your majesty should pay more attention to any new inventions in science and engineering.

Because many things often seem useless when they are first invented, but in fact they are military artifacts.

For example, the steam engine first invented by Situ was used to circulate water in fish tanks.

Who would have thought at the time that it was the mother machine that was the source of power for the Song Dynasty?

Damn! If the family has a virtuous queen, the country will have no worries. Zhao Xu really has not thought about this at all. I will ask a few ministers about this matter tomorrow. The reputation of the eleventh brother's frivolousness can be cleared up by this matter.

Already.

The next day, Zhao Xu told the officials about this rare thing. Su Zhe and others couldn't help but look at each other, this thing... seemed to be of no use.

Cai Jing is a clever guy: "Your Majesty, this thing can identify a person's appearance. Will it make it safer for us to go to important places such as the military, science and engineering, and history museums that require a license to enter and exit?"

"Hasn't there been cases of people pretending to be princes in the Song Dynasty before? It's difficult for local officials to tell the real ones from the fake ones. If this photo is attached to the letter, wouldn't this worry be eliminated?"

Zhang Kai suddenly came to his senses: "It is indeed a good thing! The military envoys who send the news can use this as a proof to prevent counterfeiting!"

Huang Shang also immediately handed it over: "This thing should be of great use, not only for envoys in the army, but also for monks and Taoists."

"At that time, many Liao Dynasty spies were lurking in Mount Wutai as monks. Li Changjie invaded Guangzhou, killed monks, received ultimatums, and then ordered his subordinates to shave their heads and pretend to be false, secretly trying to find out what was true in our court!"

"Today, the situation in Tatar is chaotic, and the Tatar people believe in the Buddhist teachings in red. Therefore, it is very important to identify the identity of the monk in red!"

Su Che thought of a question: "Then this technology must be included in the confidentiality technology management? Otherwise, if the technology flows out and the photos are replaced, there will be problems..."

Cai Jing said: "If the developing paper is the same as today's trust paper, it should be able to withstand the steel seal and the steel seal."

Zhao Xu felt that this way, his younger brother's inventions not only served art, and began to prepare for his brother's success: "Well, although the eleventh brother sometimes goes out of line, the things he invented are still helpful to the military and the country...

…”

As a result, Zhang Shangying blocked him before he could finish his words: "One thing comes back to another. Even if the eleven county officials take credit, it does not mean that they are not responsible for their previous frivolous behavior."

"Fortunately, I am still young and have not yet left the cabinet, so I left it to the control of Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Otherwise, the impeachment would not have been so easy."

"There is a common saying among the people that the eldest brother is like the father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like the mother. Please don't let future generations slander you, Duke Zheng Zhuang!"

Zhao Xu felt so tired that he had no choice but to give up his subsequent thoughts: "What Aiqing said is absolutely true. I have severely punished the eleventh brother. I used to study painting from my consort, and now I have entered the Polytechnic and was banned for a holiday. I think I should
