"It is said that the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Princess, and the Third Prince came to meet——"
Several old ministers of the imperial court walked out solemnly in court uniforms with their backs bowed, and then Liu Yan, Liu Yan and Dou Yacai, who didn't understand why they were called in, were summoned into the emperor's palace at the same time.
In the palace, the imperial doctors were discussing something next to the emperor's throne. The empress and several noble concubines were wiping tears aside. It seemed that overnight, the originally cheerful and talkative emperor had aged at least ten years. Indeed, time is like a knife, a knife.
The sword urges people to grow old. As long as an older person has a slight illness, his physical condition will deteriorate rapidly. Even the emperor who is known as Long Live Long Live Long Live cannot escape the law of birth, aging, illness and death.
"My son, I bow to my father."
"Dou Yacai meets Father."
The emperor, who had been sleeping with his eyes closed, opened his eyes:
"You all stand down, I want to speak to my prince and daughter-in-law about what's on my mind."
"yes."
The queen looked at Liu Yan. She was quite critical of her son and his daughter-in-law, Dou Yacai, who had not returned home all night. She wanted to take the opportunity to reprimand her, but now she had no chance. Dou Yacai was always a concern in her heart.
She couldn't pull it out, and she felt uncomfortable when she saw it. She really felt that this skinny girl who had just grown up was not worthy of her suave, handsome and superb son.
More importantly, Liu Hao was not particularly close to her in the first place, but because of Dou Yacai, he repeatedly contradicted her, which made her feel sick in her heart and she could not get rid of it.
Dou Yacai could feel the Queen's needle-like gaze. Although it didn't sting her back, it was still a bit on pins and needles. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been very complicated since ancient times. As the saying goes: "Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite."
One of them is called "The Book of Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law". In a family, the most obvious and common conflicts between two generations occur in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The incompatibility between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law makes many people shake their heads and sigh when they mention it.
problem.
And Dou Yacai has never faced this problem squarely, and has never thought about reciting this sutra. It is not because she does not have the confidence to deal with the queen, but she has never thought that she will have much influence with this palace before.
But when they were in "our village", when they were having their wedding in the bridal chamber prepared by Aunt Seven, and when he and Liu Hao rode a horse together back to the palace, she suddenly felt that she and Liu Hao,
He is already inextricably linked to this palace and can no longer escape.
It seems that the next thing to do is to deal with the mother-in-law, who has the highest status in the world.
After everyone else had withdrawn, the emperor spoke:
"You three, get up and talk."
"yes."
The three of them stood up as instructed and stood in front of the dragon bed with their heads bowed.
"Father, my imperial physician has superb medical skills. My father will recover soon. I have already ordered people to go to the Western Regions to find the magic medicine. I hope that my father will protect the dragon's body for the sake of the Liu Dynasty." Liu Yan said.
"Father, please take care." Liu Hao has always been a man of few words. When facing his injured father, he could only say words like "take care". After hearing this, Dou Yacai secretly thought that he would be better off fighting Asan with Aunt Seven.
He was very powerful when he started talking, but now he has turned into a different person. It seems that Uncle Wang must have a dual personality. As a wife, she must follow her husband's husband to save some face:
"Father, you have the heart of a Bodhisattva. I think that deer loved you so much that it led you to chase it. Now if it knew that you were injured, it might be repenting in the valley." Dou Yacai was innocent.
The innocent words made the emperor's face lighten up a lot.
"Bean sprouts, help me sit up."
Dou Yacai hurriedly ran over to help His Majesty the Emperor up and stuffed the pillow under his dragon's back. The Emperor was a kind and wise man. Dou Yacai looked at it and felt that he was similar to the one in "Kangxi Dynasty"
Kangxi is somewhat similar.
The emperor did not pay attention to the two sons standing in front of the dragon's collapse. Instead, he and Dou Yacai chatted about domestic matters. He liked this ghostly girl very much.
"Yacai, when you first entered the palace, I heard about your "borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha" thing. I gave the queen embroidered flowers by your sister, and also called it "borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha" and compared the queen to Buddha. She is really
I'm so happy. My father is ill in bed today. Can you share the people or things in the house with me to express my joy to my father? I'm busy with government affairs today, and I haven't relaxed for a long time.
Dou Yacai thought to herself that the emperor called Liu Yan and Liu Yan in at the same time just to let her perform. I'm afraid this is just the beginning of the test.
"Ahem..." Dou Yacai coughed solemnly, and then said, "Father, if I really say what I said, you must promise to spare my life."
When Liu Hao heard this, he trembled.
"Let me compose a poem for my father. I hope that my father's injury will recover soon, and that the Liu Dynasty will be peaceful and prosperous."
"Write a poem? Well, your performance in front of the emperor opened my eyes last time. This time I want to see how your poems go."
"Okay, please ask Father Yazheng. I will read it. Sixth Prince, please help me write it." Dou Yacai decided to ask her uncle.
"Oh? But you can't write?" the emperor asked.
"Of course not. Father, haven't you ever heard of the saying 'a woman sings when her husband follows her'?" Dou Yacai didn't want to show her ugly calligraphy, and even made up a high-sounding reason that made Liu Hao happy.
I scoffed fiercely in my heart.
"Wives sing with husbands? It should be husbands with wives."
"That's what the emperor said."
Why do husbands sing and wives follow their wives? Dou Yacai wants her husband to follow her husband today.
She paced around the room with her hands behind her back, sometimes frowning, pretending to think. In fact, she had an idea in mind as soon as the emperor opened his mouth. The next thing she was going to say was a story she had read in a book.
Now let’s learn from it. Learning is not plagiarism. Learning actually requires a lot of wisdom. Her talented daughter Dou Yacai also disdains plagiarism.
"Uncle, I'm going to say something, please listen carefully." After pacing for a while, she felt that she had had enough, so she decided to start performing, but as soon as the words came out, she was shocked and crying——
"The first line of the poem - this old man is not a human being."
As soon as Liu Hao's pen tip landed on the rice paper, he was shocked when he heard Dou Yacai's words. The drop of ink fell off. The white rice paper looked like a beautiful woman with a big mole for no reason.
The paper was invalidated in an instant, and he scolded: "Dou Yacai, don't be rude. My father is seriously ill, so stop being clever."
When Liu Yan heard this, he was also stunned. What was Xiaoyaocai going to do? A smile overflowed from the corners of his lips.
"Who said I was joking? You just write it. Otherwise, Father, please give an order for our uncle to listen to me. I will read a sentence and he will write a sentence."
"Okay, okay, Liu'er, you write whatever Yacai reads. San'er, drag the paper for your brother and let him write well."
"Yes, Father, I obey my orders." Father has given orders, so how can they have any reason to disobey?
Hey, Dou Yacai was very happy. One of the two most popular princes in the Liu Dynasty wrote for her, and the other held the paper. She firmly believed that she must have done too many good things in her previous life.
"This old man is not a human being." Dou Yacai read again. Liu Hao's pen tip still trembled, but he still wrote it down.
"The true dragon emperor descends to the mortal world." Well, this sentence is not bad, Liu Hao wrote it in a few strokes.
"All sons are thieves." Oh~~ Another piece of paper was reimbursed.
"Uncle, rewrite!" Dou Yacai shouted, Liu Yan and Liu Yan looked at each other, and Liu Yan took out a piece of paper again and laid it out.
"Sixth brother, if you have a wife like this, you must be in trouble every day." It is always like this. Liu Yan's words cannot be heard as good or bad, teasing or envy. He is often as deep as a pool of water a thousand feet deep.
"Thank you, third brother, for caring."
Stinky bean sprouts must be tortured to give him a heart attack.
I wrote one again. I still hesitated when I thought "all sons are thieves", but finally mustered up the courage to write it down.
"And the last sentence, 'Steal the elixir and give it to your dearest relatives.'" After saying the last sentence, Liu Hao was stunned. After a while, the emperor burst out laughing, and Liu Yan also showed admiration. This little girl, he
I was right about her from the beginning. Which woman in the Liu Dynasty could have such intelligence and wisdom?
"This old man is not a human being/The real dragon emperor descended to the mortal world/All his sons are thieves/I stole the elixir and gave it to my relatives, good, good, good, good, good, the bean sprouts are really my pistachio, it doesn't matter that they are so beautiful, they really make me,
Liu'er and San'er were surprised, hahaha..."
The emperor's hearty laughter reappeared and spread all the way outside the palace. Even the queen found it strange and ordered Xiao Linzi to go and investigate quietly. As soon as the emperor was happy, the depressive atmosphere in the entire palace suddenly lightened a lot.
The emperor glanced at his two sons. Although he was bedridden, Liu Longji's eyes were still sharp.
"I called you here today to ask you two to talk about what is the most important thing in a dynasty? San'er, you are the elder brother, you go first." Sure enough, the emperor definitely did not want to listen to Dou Yacai's funny words. Look,
Liu Huan wrote for her, and Liu Yan laid out the paper for him and called them in.
"Yes, I obey my order. I believe that the so-called governing a country is to govern the officials. The most important thing in a dynasty is to govern the officials. If the officials are managed well, the official atmosphere will be corrected, and the officials' role as role models will be strengthened, the common people will respond.
If the orders are followed, the country will be well-organized and the society will be stable and harmonious. Otherwise, if officials deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors, engage in malpractice for personal gain, be dim-witted and act recklessly, the result can only be "disobedience despite orders" and the people complaining about the decline of the country. Therefore, I believe
Managing officials is the most important thing."
"Well, that's good. I see you have really thought about it." The emperor nodded frequently, "Liu'er, what about you."
"Guide them with government and coordinate them with conduct, so that the people will avoid being shameless; guide them with virtue and coordinate them with etiquette, and they will be shameless and qualified. That is, using systems and penalties to unify people's actions, although they can prevent people from committing crimes, they will
There is no sense of shame; if you use etiquette and morality to influence people, people will have a sense of shame and not commit crimes. They will consciously do good and walk on the right path. There is also a saying that "advocating virtue to govern must pay attention to those who govern the country". Those who govern the country
It requires virtue and high moral cultivation, with special emphasis on the self-discipline of rulers and setting an example for the people with their own words and deeds." Liu Hao has always advocated Confucianism, and he absorbed important ideas on governing the country from the thoughts of Confucian Confucius."
"Well, Liuer, you are right. Morality plays a more important role than the legal system. Yacai, do you have a different opinion?" When the emperor praised Liu Hao, he saw a look of disapproval in Dou Yacai's eyes.
"Bean sprouts do have some opinions."
"explain."
"Mencius once said that the right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the right people. Yacai believes that whether it is a person or a country, what matters is a person's 'humanity'. Humanity is the most important factor that plays a decisive role. "The right place"
Secondly, "timing" is second. As for the royal family, the most important thing is "harmony", harmony between husband and wife, harmony between father and son, harmony between brothers, and harmony between sisters. If a king can achieve these harmony in his family, he will definitely be harmonious.
People all over the world will obey and submit."
"I see, both of you are not as good as Ya Cai. It seems that you are still some time away from truly governing the country." The emperor sat up from the dragon couch and then stood up.
"Father, you..."
The emperor was not injured?
"Do you think I'm injured? It's just a little deer. It's not worth mentioning to me. It's you. I'm telling you in this way that everything in this world and the palace is under my control. The throne
I know in my heart who should belong to it."
"My father taught me a lesson, and my son will remember it."
Oh my God, Jiang is still very old, even though she is a child prodigy, she was deceived by the emperor. The battle outside was so huge, but Liu Hao was still sick to attend.
"You all go out and each perform his or her duties. I will no longer pursue the matter of Huo'er's injury. I just hope that you brothers will not forget the bond of blood."
The emperor's majesty shook the earth and stunned everyone on the spot.
The three people retreated angrily.
Dou Yacai still lamented the emperor's acting skills. The people kneeling outside, including the queen, were probably deceived by him.
"Sixth brother, I thought my father was injured, and Yun Luo has also returned from the border. You should probably have a good time catching up on old times. We said goodbye that day. How many years have you not seen each other?" After leaving the emperor's palace, Liu Yan spoke.
Yun Luo? Many years? Reminiscing about old times? Dou Yacai suddenly remembered what Liu Hao said outside the Jingyang Palace at that time, "You have your taste, and she has hers." Daqing, this time the "flavor" is back? She
After looking at Liu Hao, his expression was indeed strange.
"Thank you, third brother, for caring."
Liu Hao left a word and walked out quickly without looking back.
"Xiao Yacai, your uncle abandoned you. It's time to go find Yun Luo. Why don't you go to my Ruiqing Palace with your third brother? I'll have someone prepare something delicious for you to eat."
"Don't bother Third Brother. I stayed away all night and am very tired now. I have to go back to Jingyang Palace."
This kid was walking so fast. Could it be that he was really looking for the little beauty just now?
Ginger is old and spicy, and lover should also be old.
