Chapter 248 The strongest good person card in history
What on earth did that woman who was once bold... do that Wang Xian and Zhu Zhanji dare not mention?
The answer is that she once refused to marry. In the Ming Dynasty, if a woman dared to say no to marriage, it was enough for her to become famous all over the world. But it was not enough for two bold guys to keep it secret. The really exciting reason was that she refused to marry.
The marriage partner is Zhu Di, the current Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Who is Zhu Di? The supreme king of the world, the lord of hundreds of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. His words are written into the constitution, and his authority is as powerful as a mountain. Every thought he has is a supreme imperial edict and must be carried out to the letter by his subjects. How dare this woman dare to make such a move?
He is a good guy, and words like heart and courage are not enough to describe his misfortune.
So when Wang Xian was in Fuyang, he had already heard about this woman's name - her name was Xu Miaojin, the youngest daughter of Zhongshan King Xu Da, who was the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty. Legend has it that she was full of poetry and talented, and she was like a fairy, even more beautiful than her sister, Queen Renxiao.
Outstanding, she was not only the most beautiful woman in the Ming Dynasty, but also the most talented woman in the Ming Dynasty.
Speaking of which, Xu Da, the King of Zhongshan, was truly the great winner in life. Not only was he invincible on the battlefield and became a military god, but what is even more legendary is that he was able to die a good death at the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, and was posthumously named the
Wang, the descendants of Enyin, cannot but be said to be a miracle.
It is said that people spend the rest of their lives on their children. If the tutoring is not successful, it will not be called a big winner in life. However, Xu Da's two sons were both named Dukes of the country. They were the only ones in the Ming Dynasty who had two sons.
The daughter was well-educated, gentle and virtuous, and became Zhu Yuanzhang's first choice for choosing a daughter-in-law. The eldest daughter married King Zhu Di of Yan, who later became Queen Xu, the mother of all Zhu Di's sons, and the grandmother of Zhu Zhanji; the second daughter married Zhu Gui, the acting king.
, the three daughters married Zhu Ying, Prince of An, and the posthumous daughter was even more outstanding. She was born at the age of twenty-seven and became a famous beauty and talented woman in the capital. The matchmakers came to propose marriage, but they were all rejected by her brother.
As a result, Xu Miaojin's marriage was dragged on day after day. By the third year of Yongle, she was already a twenty-year-old girl. In the Ming Dynasty, women who were not married at this age were either conservative or unable to get married. Xu Miaojin
The queen was anxious and had her second brother Xu Tianfu called to the palace and asked him why he had been reluctant to agree to his sister's marriage.
At that time, Mrs. Xu had passed away. The eldest Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu, refused to pay homage to Zhu Di and was imprisoned in the mansion. The fourth oldest Duke of Ding, Xu Zengshou, was killed by Jianwen. Therefore, the second brother of the queen, Tianfu, had the final say in the mansion. However, faced with the situation
When the Queen asked, Xu Tianfu hesitated and refused to explain the reason. Queen Xu wanted to make the decision to marry his sister, but Zhu Di personally intervened to stop it. Now the Queen understood everything, and then the empress, who had three obediences and four virtues, fell silent...
Two years later, Empress Xu died of illness. In the past year, Zhu Di issued a decree to the Duke's Mansion - the queen's position was vacant, and the world had lost its mother. There was the youngest daughter of the King of Zhongshan, who was virtuous, kind, and worthy of the mother's honor.
The world is under heaven, so I make you a queen and admire this
The mystery was finally solved. It turned out that the brother-in-law had fallen in love with his sister-in-law, and naturally he would not allow anyone else to get involved.
The death of the elder sister and the renewal of the younger sister's relationship were considered a good story. In everyone's eyes, Xu Miaojin was a star shining brightly and was about to transform into a phoenix. However, Xu Miaojin fell into a trap and rejected the emperor's good intentions.
This is the famous "Ji Yongle Book". Because it is a memorial, it became well known to the scholar-bureaucrats. Wang Xian heard it recited by Teacher Wei with a pig-like look on his face. Above, "The minister's daughter grew up in a wealthy family, with a sweet and indifferent nature. She is not envious."
In the deep palace of the Forbidden Garden, the bells are ringing and the cauldrons are eating... Listening to the autumn insects outside the wall, people find it miserable; seeing the cold moon in front of the window, they feel the brightness. Due to the different circumstances in life, it is interesting to watch.
In this secluded and quiet place, isolated from the glory and wealth, my mind suddenly felt clear.,'s words are still fresh in my memory.
In the memorial, Xu Miaojin clearly told Zhu Di, "My daughter is willing to be an idler in the world and not to think about prosperity... I love peach trees and plums, and I love bamboos and red maples. From then on, the bay leaf futon, the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, and the ginseng
Silence lasts for the rest of my life. My daughter once showered me with divine grace and received countless attentions. I mourned and pitied her again. With all my daughter’s wishes, I am overwhelmed with gratitude and waiting for her fate.
At that time, Teacher Wei wiped off her saliva and said with infinite admiration that Miss Xu is indeed the most talented woman in the world. She is not only stunning in literary talent, but also very intelligent... Although she does not want to marry Zhu Di, if she angers the emperor, it will definitely bring trouble to the Xu family, so
She said that I have long had ambitions to live outside the world and have no love for the mortal world. Brother-in-law, you have loved me so much for many years. Please promise me one more time and let me become a monk.
Although this is the same thing, it will not anger Zhu Di, and he begs softly. How can the emperor use force? He can only reluctantly agree...
'It's just a pity that such an outstanding woman can only accompany the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha for the rest of her life... In the end, Teacher Wei felt extremely regretful and wished he could rescue her. Of course, it was just a thought. No one dared to touch Zhu Di's woman.
No one dares to touch a woman who can't get her.
"You once said that there are two people in the world who can change the emperor's mind, a monk and a nun." Withdrawing his reverie about the legendary woman, Wang Xian asked Zhu Zhanji: "That nun refers to your grandma."
"It's my aunt, my aunt." Zhu Zhanji emphasized and nodded: "Of course, although my aunt rejected my grandpa, my grandpa was not angry. Instead, he ordered a Tianxiang Temple to be built for her by the Xuanwu Lake.
Guards and maids were sent to serve her."
Wang Xian was not surprised at all by this. As a man, what you get is always the best. But in order to understand the situation, he still asked gossipingly: "Then, do they, ahem, still have contact with each other?"
"Yes, but come and go." Zhu Zhanji said generously: "As long as my emperor is in Beijing, he often goes to Tianxiang Temple to have tea, but my aunt rarely talks to him, and the pot of tea is too weak.
Then she saw the guests off. She never stepped out of Tianxiang Temple, let alone went to Beiyuan."
"Hey." Wang Xian patted his head and said, "Why do I feel that the old monk has no good intentions?"
"Hehe." Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "Although Master Yao is an outsider, he is still my emperor's number one confidant after all. It is natural for him to be a pimp for his master."
"So that's it..." Wang Xianxin said yes, the old monk is indeed very scheming... Yao Guangxiao wanted to use Xu Miaojin's mouth to intercede for Zhou Xin. Firstly, he could avoid suspicion. Secondly, he could create an opportunity for the emperor to let Xu Miaojin speak. Thirdly, as long as Xu Miaojin spoke,
The emperor will definitely agree, and it will be easier than he said himself. Kill three birds with one stone, and a master is a master. "But can your aunt agree?"
Zhu Zhanji looked at Wang Xian with a look like, "How can you say stupid things? Isn't this nonsense?" He didn't even look at who wrote the letter.
"I'm stupid. The letter written by the old monk will definitely work." Wang Xian patted his head mockingly, remembering something and said: "By the way, I went to Qingshou Temple today, but why didn't I see a few pilgrims? I shouldn't have
ah?"
"If you are from the capital, you won't find it strange." Zhu Zhanji said lightly: "It is the tenth year of Yongle, and the people in the capital have not forgotten Jianwen..."
Wang Xian suddenly understood, and he also understood the second half of Zhu Zhanji's unspoken sentence... The capital is a place where many people gather, and any family can be related to Jianwen's old ministers. Over the years, every family probably has relatives who have been implicated.
The common people will record this account on Chen Ying, Ji Gang, Zhu Di, and even the person who caused it.
Whoever created the figurine has no descendants? Although there are dense spies in the capital, the people dare not scold Yao Guangxiao, but he wants them to burn incense in his temple, and no one even takes care of the food...
Alas, it's such a pity that such good noodles are so good. Wang Xian looked at Zhu Zhanji and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this boy's life would be much better. The people would not blame him and his father, but would like them to take over as soon as possible.
, because that means that Zhu Di is finally dead...
After all that needed to be said, Zhu Zhanji went to report to the prince. He came back after dinner and said, "I will go to Tianxiang Temple with you tomorrow."
"Why don't you avoid suspicion this time?"
"How can you get in without me leading the ball?" Zhu Zhanji laughed and scolded, "Unless I castrate you first."
"Uh..." Wang Xian was so sweaty, thinking that Xu Miaojin was really pitiful. Even if he got rid of the emperor's marriage, he still couldn't get rid of the life shrouded by Zhu Di. If it were him, he couldn't get rid of it anyway, and he would definitely be happy.
The queen has gone.
Bah, bah, that's all I've got. Wang Xian cursed to himself secretly.
Early the next morning, the two of them dressed up, took Zhu Zhanji's carriage, and drove to Tianxiang Temple on the bank of Xuanwu Lake. Before arriving at their destination, they passed through a royal garden with red walls and yellow tiles. Zhu Zhanji said that this
It was Beiyuan where his grandfather lived. As soon as Wang Xian heard that the emperor did not live in Qianqing Palace, his first reaction was that Emperor Yongle was so afraid of his father that he did not even dare to face the ghost of Zhu Yuanzhang.
But when he saw the Tianxiang Temple next to Beiyuan, he had a second reaction, damn, it turns out it was just to get closer to his sister-in-law.
While thinking wildly, the convoy had already entered the mountain gate of Tianxiang Temple. Wang Xian saw that there were indeed imperial guards on duty outside the mountain gate, but Zhu Zhanji was the emperor's grandson and Xu Miaojin's favorite cousin, so he could naturally drive straight in.
Entering Tianxiang Temple, you will see trees, luxuriant flowers and grass, and a long white jade bridge connecting the lakeshore to a small islet of several acres. From a distance, you can see the exotic flowers and grass on the small islet, the waves of flowers rolling gently, and the bamboos growing.
Set against the background of pink walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water, and beautiful branches and leaves, it is a place where gods are located.
Unexpectedly, there are such nunneries in the world. Wang Xian feels that if he becomes a monk here, it doesn't seem to be too difficult... The most beautiful woman in the world is indeed more attractive than the old monk... Before they meet, Wang Xian has the urge to become a monk.
, it’s a pity that they are determined not to accept him.
The two got off the car at the bridge. A pretty female official came up to them and saluted the grandson. Then she looked at Wang Xian and hesitated to speak.
"This is a lay disciple of Master Daoyan. He has sent a letter from Master Yao to my aunt." Zhu Zhanji explained hurriedly.
