Chapter 209

"Prime Minister, you can't accept your gift." The emcee said to Li Si with a smile.

Li Si was surprised and said, "Why can't you accept it? I, Li Si, have a gift that you don't like, too light, and you don't like?" Li Si gave a pair of mandarin duck playground jadeware, which was exquisitely crafted and valuable. It was the best thing Zhou Chong gave it to his wedding. Unexpectedly, the emcee didn't accept it. It would be impossible to be surprised if he was not surprised.

Zeng Shuyao was also surprised and said, "Yes, this jade was specially carved by a good craftsman. It is very suitable for Mr. Zhou to give it to him in his wedding."

"Oh, Prime Minister, you misunderstood." The emcee explained with a smile: "I don't mean this. Your gifts are too good and too expensive, so you can't accept them."

Li Si said even more strangely: "There is no reason for this? Gifts are not charged if they are expensive, can they only be charged if they are cheap?"

He originally asked a question, but he did not expect the emcee nodded and praised: "Prime Minister Mingjian, Mr. Zhou has given instructions that no gifts with a market value of more than ten taels of silver will be charged.

The Prime Minister said that the jade artifact was worth at least a thousand taels of silver. Isn’t it that the Prime Minister knew Mr. Zhou’s rules, so how dare I accept it?”

Li Si was the first encounter with the fact that he was not a cheap person or a expensive person. He said strangely: "What's the mystery of Mr. Zhou?"

Zeng Shuyao said very much: "Brother Zhou is brilliant."

Li Si asked, "Madam, where do you start?"

Zeng Shuyao explained: "Brother Zhou set such a rule because he was afraid that officials would embezzle them in order to give gifts.

Think about it, how much Dai fortune is for officials? What a glory it is for Mr. Zhou's wedding and the emperor himself to marry. How dare the officials not come to celebrate. When they come, they naturally have to give a generous gift.

Their Dai-Silver is not enough, so what else can they do besides getting greedy?"

Li Si suddenly realized and praised him, "Mr. Zhou is indeed a clever one. But if we don't give the gifts we prepared, we would be so sorry to Mr. Zhou."

After all, Zeng Shuyao and Zhou Chong have been together for a long time, and they know Zhou Chong very well and said, "Don't sigh, either. I'm thinking about it.

Brother Zhou has taken such pains to do so, so don’t make things difficult for Brother Zhou. This way, your small seal script is awesome. Just write a piece of calligraphy, I think Brother Zhou will like it.”

Li Si's small seal script is famous throughout the ages, which is a good idea. Li Si said: "I have to do this."

The emcee presented a pen and said, "Mr. Li. Please."

Li Si pondered and said, "What kind of words should I write? Write the word "Happy." He held the pen in his hand, dipped it in thick ink, hanged his wrist and stroked it, and with one stroke, the word "Happy" is shaped, and the brushwork is vigorous and powerful.

The strength penetrated the back of the paper and was about to fly. A cheer sounded and praised, "Good words. Good words!"

His small seal script is indeed not a prank, it is really well written.

"Thank you Prime Minister!" The emcee was about to put the inscription over, and at this moment a loud voice shouted: "Slow!"

When Li Si saw that it was not someone else's talk, it was Zhang Liang. He, Han Fei and Wei Liao came side by side. They were important officials in the court, and all the officials gave way to them.

"Master Zhang, what do you think of the teachings?" asked the emcee.

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "I dare not see you. Zhang Liang has a small idea. Please consider it."

"If you have something to do, please tell me." Wei Liao smiled and said, "There are thousands of tricks on Zifang, which is very useful at this time. Why not show your skills?"

Zhang Liangqian said: "Mr. Liaozi has been too much. Zhang Liang thought that Mr. Li's word "Happy" is good, but it's a bit of a beauty."

Li Si's small seal script has been famous throughout the ages. He thought it should be perfect. Zhang Liang actually said that the beauty is not enough. He was also surprised. He asked for advice: "Li Si is not talented, so I would like to ask Zifang for advice."

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "The Prime Minister doesn't have to be too careful. The Prime Minister's handwriting is very good, but Zhang Liang sighs that he is not as good as that.

But Zhang Liang felt that the word "happy" is too lonely. Good things are in pairs. If you want to write, write two words "happy" in pairs, and the phoenixes are in harmony. This is the way to stay together forever. Zhang Liang's brief opinion, please consider it."

"Good idea, good idea!" Everyone praised in unison.

"Miaomiao!" Han Fei and Wei Liao stroked their hands and exclaimed.

Li Si patted his forehead and said, "Luckily I have a reminder for ovary, otherwise Li Si would have made a mistake. ovary, please." He handed the pen in his hand to Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang's handwriting is also good, but compared with Li Si, it is still a lot worse, saying: "The Prime Minister's small seal script is famous all over the world. How dare Zhang Liang show off his skills? He has to work hard on the Prime Minister again."

Han Fei stuttered: "Senior brother, Zifang's words are very true. My younger brother admires your little seal script, and you must write it."

Everyone meant this, Li Si said: "Since that's the case, Li Si has made a fool of himself." He wrote a quick pen and wrote another word "Hi next to the word "Hi", which became a double word "Hi".

The word "Shuangxi" was originally a beautiful wife after Wang Anshi won the top scorer and was happy. When he was happy, he wrote the word "Shuangxi" and passed down through the ages. Unexpectedly, he gave Li Si and Zhang Liang and others an idea. I created it a thousand years earlier. It was really unexpected when Zhou Chong's wedding.

Wei Liao touched his beard and smiled and said, "In the opinion of Liaozi, Mr. Zhou does not accept heavy gifts, so we will follow the guests and will not give him gifts."

"The officials said together, "How can that happen?" When they thought, Zhou Chong was favored by the emperor. If he didn't give gifts, if he annoyed him, it would be no joke.

"Please be quiet and let Liaozi finish his words." Wei Liao pressed down with both hands and signaled to the officials to quietly say, "Liuzi means that we will give Mr. Zhou some help.

This pair of characters of joy is too monotonous. Liaozi means that I would like to ask the Prime Minister to write more. We will help you arrange it and post all the places that should be posted in the mansion."

This idea is good, but it is a bit incredible and unacceptable. All officials look at me, and I look at you, and I am at a loss. Gan Luo first responded: "Mr. Liaozi has a very good idea, just do it like this.

Please rest assured, Mr. Zhou will only be happy, not unhappy.”

"Yes!" Han Fei said affirmatively: "It's a good Prime Minister."

Although Li Si was eager for quick success and instant benefits, he was also an elegant man. Such a unique celebration was indeed extraordinary, and he became interested and said, "Since that's the case, Li Si will be ugly." He wrote a lot of writing, and wrote one double-happy word after another for him.

Wei Liao and Zhang Liang and others held the words "Shuangxi" and posted them everywhere. After a while, the mansion became very happy.

Just as everyone was busy posting words, a loud voice praised: "Shuangxi, okay! What a good handwriting! What a good idea!"

Everyone knew without thinking that it was Qin Shihuang who arrived, and said together: "See the Emperor!"

Qin Shihuang came in surrounded by Zhao Gaoren and said, "Forget it, Forget it! Li Si, your character is very extraordinary, and the structure and layout of the brushwork are the best choices. He is worthy of being a man of creation. He created a double-happy big character. Since then, I, Daqin, have another character that is very wide-ranging.



Li Si hurriedly said: "The emperor has been too rewarded, so I dare not take it. The two characters "Happy" were created by Zifang, and I am just writing it on my behalf."
