When he walked to the door of the pawn shop, Chen Yi saw that there were still some children from aristocratic families gathered outside the pawn shop. Ever since the news spread at the calligraphy party that an auction house was going to be opened, Xinglong Pawn Shop would come to Xinglong Pawn Shop from time to time with some children from aristocratic families coming to inquire about the news.
In the past, when the children of those aristocratic families met Chen Yi in the pawn shop, they would say hello politely. But at this moment, when they saw Chen Yi, their faces were full of shock.
They also knew clearly about the process of Chen Yi being summoned by the emperor yesterday through their elders or circles, and finally understood why Chen Yi dared to confront the Liu family before he was famous for his calligraphy.
"A person who doesn't even want rewards from the emperor, and even dares to make demands from the emperor, is nothing to a mere Liu family.
Before, they seemed to have great respect for Chen Yi on the surface, but they didn't really take Chen Yi seriously in their hearts. But now, after knowing the feats Chen Yi performed when he entered the palace yesterday, they are completely convinced.
Every time they meet, they brag about how much money they spent today and how many girls they flirted with, and they are proud of it. Compared with Chen Yi, they are really inferior to pigs.
Even though some of the official positions awarded by the emperor were bigger than the largest official in their family, Chen Yi directly refused and even made a request to the emperor. This made them admire Chen Yi with all their might.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It’s normal for Chen Yi to be calm and calm when facing the emperor, and ignore them as young men from aristocratic families.
Through this incident, some smart people saw something, that is, Chen Yi's calligraphy level was exactly the same as those pieces of calligraphy. In other words, those pieces of calligraphy were really Chen Yi's. Written by Yishuo.
This time when he entered the palace, the emperor just wanted to verify this matter. Now he gave Chen Yi a huge reward, and even later agreed to Chen Yi's two requests. This is because Chen Yi is the creator of calligraphy.
"Otherwise, the emperor will not be polite to a liar. That would be the crime of deceiving the emperor."
At this moment. All the children of the aristocratic family looked at Chen Yi with deep admiration on their faces. They all had more or less rebellious hearts. Chen Yi did what they did not dare to do. Naturally, deep admiration will arise in my heart.
They are gathered here now, some of them are here to inquire about the auction house, and more of them want to come here to meet this fierce man.
After learning about Chen Yi’s summoning to the palace, the elders of these aristocratic families told them that they must have a good relationship with Chen Yi, and at the very least, they must not offend Chen Yi.
Similarly, there are also some large families or forces that have seen the money-making potential of auction houses before. They wanted to intervene, but now, they didn't dare to have any ideas.
Although Chen Yi was a calligraphy master before, he did not have any power after all. But now, with the emperor's summons, no one dares to offend Chen Yi again.
They can enter and leave the palace at any time. If they offend Chen Yi, Chen Yi will go to the emperor to complain. They will shed their skin even if they don't die.
"Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen." After seeing Chen Yi come out, after experiencing a moment of shock, all the disciples of the aristocratic families surrounding the door greeted Chen Yi. It was like seeing an idol.
In the eyes of many people, Chen Yi is not just an accident in their calligraphy, but has now become an idol in their lives. Everyone is imagining that they can be as awesome as Chen Yi and make requests to the emperor.
Chen Yi also waved to these children of aristocratic families. Escorted by Niu Erzhuang and others, he and Mr. Wu came to the carriage of the Wu family.
This carriage also looks like a luxury version. The materials used are much better than the ordinary carriage he rides in, and the space is also very large.
"Mr. Chen, please." Mr. Wu said very politely. The phenomenon of many children from aristocratic families frantically greeting Chen Yi just now already illustrates Chen Yi's current status and fame.
After the calligraphy party, no one dared to look down upon Chen Yi, a young man, including the elders of the big families, and now, even more so after Chen Yi was summoned by the emperor.
Chen Yi nodded with a smile and got into the carriage. Then Mr. Wu also got on and the carriage started heading towards the Wu Mansion.
Chen Yi also has some understanding of Wu Bin, but there is not much information about him in history. There is a certain number of paintings that have been handed down.
Most of his exquisite paintings are collected by major museums at home and abroad. Those that are spread among the people are actually very rare, and those at auctions are even rarer.In modern research on Wu Bin, overseas academic circles pay more attention to it than domestic ones. His landscape works are so impressive that he is praised by academic circles as no less than a master of the Song Dynasty.
Chen Yi remembers very clearly that Wu Bin's most valuable painting at auction was "Eighteen Yingzhen Pictures". Yingzhen is the Arhat. Wu Bin painted many paintings on this theme in his life, and the Eighteenth Yingzhen Picture It should be a real picture, the scenery is supernatural and ancient, full of fantasy colors. The eighteen Arhats are either sitting on a stone bed, standing on the water, riding on monsters, or talking to each other. It can be said that each Arhat has its own characteristics.
The scroll is nearly six meters long. It can be said to be a huge work. It is also a work from Wu Bin's peak period. It was sold at auction for more than 166 million yuan, and the previous owner of the painting was It's a foreigner.
??Wu Bin was unknown at this time and was not as famous as Tang Bohu and others, but he received this astonishing price, which shows the level of his paintings.
Chatting with Mr. Wu from time to time, they soon arrived at the Wu Mansion. After the carriage stopped, Mr. Wu walked off first. Then Chen Yi slowly got off the carriage and looked to the side, only to see that in the Wu Mansion At the gate, there were already twenty or thirty people standing, men and women, old and young. The leader was an old man who looked to be sixty years old.
Seeing Chen Yi get off the carriage, the old man first raised his hand and said, "Old Wu Bin, together with his family, has met Mr. Chen, and sincerely welcomes Mr. Chen to be a guest in his house."
Afterwards, twenty or thirty people standing behind the old man also bowed their hands to Chen Yi, and then said in unison: "Welcome Mr. Chen to our house."
Next to the Wu Mansion, there are also some wealthy families. They saw Wu Bin and some family members standing outside early this morning. They were very curious. After asking about it, they found out that Chen Yi was coming, which made them extremely envious. Hate, at this time, was secretly watching this scene from the crack in the door or hiding behind the wall.
A piece of calligraphy made Chen Yi famous in the capital within a few days. A calligraphy party made Chen Yi known to all the aristocratic families in the capital, and he was almost famous all over the world. This time Chen Yi entered the palace and was welcomed by the emperor. The summons already means that Chen Yi will truly become famous all over the world.
Chen Yi quickly stepped forward and supported Wu Bin, "Mr. Wu, I can't bear the effort you are making."
A smile suddenly appeared on Wu Bin's face. He was full of affection for Chen Yi. He had such a level of calligraphy and was summoned by the emperor. Now he was not arrogant at all. He had heard his grandson talk about Chen Yi's character before, and he was a little bit dissatisfied. Believe it, now I finally believe it.
"Mr. Chen, you have been of great help to my family. Because of your calligraphy, the family has been transformed, so you can afford it." Although Chen Yi held his hand, Wu Bin still bowed it. .
At this moment, some information about Wu Bin emerged in Chen Yi's mind. The words in his character column made him full of emotion. He had made some guesses before about the reason why Wu Bin was unknown in history, but now his character , confirmed his guess that Wu Bin didn't like to show off or fight with others. However, this person was not that honest and honest, but understood everything.
"Mr. Wu, I also want to thank you for your help. Without you devoting all your efforts to help me spread the calligraphy gathering, my calligraphy would not be famous all over the world." Seeing that he could not help Wu Bin, Chen Yi took a step back and thanked him.
Wu Bin smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, our help to you is not because of you, but because of your calligraphy. And now, our respectful welcome is not only because of your calligraphy and your help, but also because of you." "
Chen Yi nodded slightly. He understood Wu Bin's mysterious words in an instant. He helped him spread the word before because of his extremely high level of calligraphy. Now, part of the reason for the respectful welcome of these people is because of him. After being summoned by the emperor, many people knew his character and behavior.
“It’s just that there is no one who can truly see through him. The same goes for Emperor Wanli, and the same goes for Wu Bin.
"Mr. Chen, please come into the house." Then, Wu Bin raised his hand to Chen Yi again, then pointed to the door and made an invitation gesture.
Chen Yi also cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu is the elder, so he should be invited first."
"Mr. Chen, a master is a teacher, let's go in together." With that, Wu Bin took Chen Yi's arm and walked into the Wu Mansion together.
The family members behind him also had expressions of surprise on their faces. They had also heard about Chen Yi's youth, but they had never thought that such a young man did not have the slightest bit of arrogance.
Mr. Wu also walked to his parents at this time and looked at his child. He had known Chen Yizhi since he knew him.After that, he slowly embarked on the right path, and he was very grateful to Chen Yi in his heart.
"Dad, Mom, I did a good job this time, right?" Mr. Wu said with some satisfaction. He unexpectedly met Chen Yi, made friends with him, and then invited him to be a guest at home. Among them, he was has important contributions. (To be continued.)
