Ji Xiang quoted this poem. In fact, this poem is not a poem of praise or admonishment. It is a poem to invite the gods. It was originally written by Mr. Gong at the invitation of a Taoist priest, which means that the old society urgently needs a poem.
Thunder and violent rain break the lifeless social situation, hoping that God can reopen his eyes and allow a large number of extraordinary talents to emerge in this world.
However, everyone has different ways of understanding poetry. Ji Xiang wrote this poem in four steps, using ten thousand horses to compare the princes, and using the God of Heaven to metaphor the emperor. There is actually nothing wrong with it.
The sound in front of Fengtian Gate reached all directions, and the morning breeze stirred. After a brief silence, the ministers started a noisy discussion.
But the little old man Liu Yingqiu had nothing to say, because at this time, as soon as the poem came out, he even wanted to praise Ji Xiang.
Emperor Wanli looked at his ministers and asked, "What do you think of this poem?"
He himself was very satisfied with the literary talent displayed in this poem, and felt that Ji Xiang still had a lot of big stuff in his belly.
In the first two sentences, he frowned and heard the sarcasm in them, but the next two sentences can be regarded as praise for the time being. First, the word "Tiangong" made Emperor Wanli very happy, and then the two sentences were connected together,
Combined with the fact that he suddenly went to court this morning, it is indeed very appropriate.
Cheer up, that's what he really thought. If he didn't cheer up, why would he go to court today? Could it be that he was here for a storytelling session? It would be better to publish a book. Anyway, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty had a lot of side jobs.
, the book might be a bestseller...
This poem scolded the ministers, but not too much, and at the same time gave a subtle admonishment and a small compliment to the emperor, which not only did not make the emperor lose face, but also gained him some respect.
Emperor Wanli narrowed his eyes: "I think it's still okay."
I think it's okay, Lao Liu, do you think he should be punished?
The little old man didn't say anything strange at this time, and he had a special way of responding:
"This son wrote this poem. I have nothing to say. It really suits the occasion. This poem is great!"
The little old man first praised, then nodded frequently, and then his eyes flashed:
"Your Majesty, after listening to this poem, I suddenly felt enlightened and enlightened!"
"Nowadays, criticism is prevalent in the court. We seldom talk about political affairs, but are busy attacking other people's privacy and shortcomings. We speak for the sake of criticism instead of speaking to rectify the court. The style of officialdom has been messed up!"
"The anger of Kyushu has become the energy of death. The wind and thunder are silent and thousands of horses are making mistakes. It is today that Your Majesty returns to the court. He should vigorously rectify the princes so that the wind of Qingming can wash away the government and the public. God is full of courage and thunders. Talented people should be promoted.
stand up!"
"May your Majesty live forever, and may our great Ming Dynasty be like the sun in the sky! Clear away the turbid miasma in the world, and make the sun, moon, mountains and rivers eternal!"
The little old man Liu Yingqiu first said that what Ji Xiang said was right and that I liked his poems very much. Then the conversation suddenly changed and he stabbed his butt with a knife, which opened the eyes of the Yanguan Group.
The Yanguan group were all confused.
Good on you little old man!
You can kill your teammates with a knife, borrow flowers to offer to Buddha, make your presence felt in front of the emperor, and switch sides at the last minute. This set of skills of yours is worth at least twenty years!
But what Lao Liu thought was very simple and direct! I will fight whoever the emperor wants to fight, and I will listen to whatever the emperor says. When His Majesty returns to the court, how can I, a fifth-rank official, upgrade myself? I am flattering!
A good opportunity for promotion is coming!
"Well, that's right, Liu Yingqiu, it seems that you were chosen by the elders for your ability in the Imperial College."
Emperor Wanli Liu Yingqiu was very happy with this backhand sword, indicating that you, Old Liu, are still very aware of current affairs.
Ji Xiang, on the other hand, was confused. If we were talking about fighting skills, he would not lose to others. However, others took advantage of his pretense and angrily slapped a big dick in front of the emperor. This operation was really embarrassing for him.
"This has been decided from the fourth grade onwards, and one person will be added. Two days later, he will receive the official robe and all the things."
Emperor Wanli set the position. In fact, this position is also a sinecure. It was added anyway. The elders of the Three Pavilions discussed why Ji Xiang should not be allowed to go to other departments related to sacrifices. First of all, officials in the Qintian Prison were not allowed to be transferred to other positions.
If there is a vacancy, the supervisor will fill it in step by step.
There is only one position for Wudang Mountain in the Daolu Division. Taihe Mountain reminds me that Ji Xiang cannot be added to this position, and it needs Lao Zhang to seal it. Lao Zhang has not come yet.
What's more, the emperor has the final say on matters like rewards. Tao Zhongwen, the Great Demon Dao, served as the Minister of Rites, and the contemporary Lao Zhang even served as the direct room outside the Meridian Gate (Forbidden City) from the fifth to the eighteenth year of Wanli.
Gatekeeper), it doesn't matter what position you are given as a reward.
"Next...I have one more thing that I want to tell you."
Ji Xiang accepted the emperor's praise, but when he heard the next three words, he immediately understood that what was going to happen next was about Zhu Changluo, and he had to pretend to be dumbfounded at this time.
So Ji Xiang stepped back without saying a word, silence was golden, and stood back to the three pavilion elders. The three pavilion elders also knew what the emperor was going to say, and now they narrowed their eyes. As long as the emperor did not name them, they would be old.
Dementia state.
What are you discussing? The three of us are old and can't hear clearly. What is the country's dispute and what is its origin?
Emperor Wanli spoke and told the story that Zhu Changluo had been arrested, and that he had colluded with Lord Huo to usurp and cause rebellion and burn the Forbidden City.
The ministers were stunned.
It turns out that before, Emperor Wanli suppressed that "someone" from revealing his identity, but this someone turned out to be the eldest prince!
For a moment, no one dared to speak, but everyone knew that by making this matter public, Emperor Wanli was telling his ministers that the war over the country was over!
This time, the elders and younger ones are in order! Because the eldest brother is going to be exiled to Fengyang, and because the second child died early, the third child, Zhu Changxun, takes over directly!
"Is there anyone who opposes me and wants to intercede for the eldest prince?"
Emperor Wanli once again raised the question, but this time he asked it to the courtiers. The courtiers were silent for a while, and finally someone stood up and lived up to the "public expectations".
"Your Majesty, the eldest prince colluded with the evil god to burn down the Forbidden City. There may be a hidden agenda in this matter..."
"Hidden story? Didn't I tell you, he admitted all this, and the three elders heard it."
Emperor Wanli pulled the three old men to his camp this time. Elder Sange heard clearly and understood that there was really no hidden secret this time, and the eldest prince really wanted to take the initiative to rebel.
But he failed and changed from the "mastermind" of the case to "Zhu".
"This time the eldest prince colluded with the evil gods to cause chaos in the Forbidden City and burned down nine palaces and three palaces. Among them, more than 300 people died, all with charred corpses. None of them were false. What your majesty said is true. The eldest prince has confessed his guilt and was arrested by the five governors of Beizhen Fusi.
Capture him at the next watch."
At this time, all the ministers suddenly remembered that when the elder went out and announced that before the ministers came in, the people from Bei Zhenfu left surrounded by a man covered in black cloth... Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the eldest prince!
"I know what you are thinking, but I will not discuss this matter about the prince today! I haven't slept a wink all night and I am very tired now. If you have anything, please discuss it in two days."
