The first thousand one hundred and sixteen chapters build momentum (a)
The first court meeting after the Shangyuan Festival was held as usual in the Jinluan Hall.
There were more than 400 officials who were qualified to participate in the imperial meeting. The feudal princes and princes stood in one row, and the civil servants and military generals each stood in two rows.
Even so, there was still not enough standing room in the Jinluan Hall. Low-ranking officials could only stand at the entrance of the Jinluan Hall, and a few stood outside the threshold.
He stood too far away, and the darkness in front of him was filled with human heads. He couldn't see clearly the emperor on the dragon throne, and of course he couldn't see the figure of the princess beside the emperor.
The young official outside the threshold quietly moved his body, tried his best to open his eyes wide, and finally caught a glimpse of a faint blush in the gap between the crowd.
This must be Princess Duanrou.
The young official felt inexplicably excited and excited.
He was a Jinshi in the previous subject and made a small editor in the Hanlin Academy. Every time there was a court meeting, he could only stand at the end and bask in the sun when it was hot, and blow the cold wind when it was cold.
of.
The struggle between kings and ministers in the court was turbulent and the situation was changing. Officials with low official positions like him had no chance to express their opinions. They just followed and watched the excitement.
Unlike others who had complicated feelings, he firmly supported Princess Duanrou's entry into the court.
He was born in Shu, his family was poor, and he had no chance to study. When the king of Shu became a vassal, the princess of Shu opened a women's workshop. His eldest sister resolutely joined the women's workshop to earn money for him to go to school. He finally had the opportunity to study.
opportunity, and embarked on the road to change his destiny.
He studied for several years, and went from being a scholar to being a scholar, and then to being a Jinshi. From a poor student, he became a new Jinshi and entered an official career. However, his eldest sister never got married because no one wanted to marry her.
A woman who devotes herself to earning money to support her brother's education.
After he passed the Jinshi examination, the eldest sister was finally able to relieve herself of her heavy burden.
That year, the eldest sister was already twenty-eight years old, and she was a complete old girl. No young man was willing to marry an old girl who was past the age of love.
His smart and capable eldest sister eventually married a wealthy businessman from Shu to fill a house and became the stepmother of three children.
On the day of his wedding, he cried hard.
The relationship between the eldest sister and her stepsons has never been harmonious. The eldest sister was pregnant and was "accidentally" pushed to the ground by one of her stepsons. The unborn child died, and the eldest sister was injured and will not be able to give birth to children in the future.
There are obviously so many outstanding and capable women in this world, just like his eldest sister. But their fates are full of twists and turns.
People in the world are especially harsh on women. It is very difficult for women to win the respect of the world and achieve happiness as they wish.
Social change starts from the royal family and the heavenly family, which is the best and fastest.
He firmly supported Princess Duanrou's entry into the court and supported the emperor's appointment of Princess Duanrou as the crown prince.
He thought that when Daqi had an empress, the status of women would rise rapidly. Women as diligent and capable as his eldest sister would have a better life.
…
This young official's surname is Mo.
Editor Mo had a low official position and had no chance to speak in court, so he simply did a big thing in private.
In fact, at the beginning, Editor Mo did not expect that this incident would attract strong attention and influence. He had outstanding literary talent and was good at writing articles, so he wrote a story based on his eldest sister, called "The Biography of Shu Nu".
》.
"The Legend of Shu Nu" was printed in the middle of last year and quickly became the best-selling storybook. It was then compiled into jokes by storytellers and circulated in teahouses and taverns. Then, it was spotted by the most famous opera troupe in the capital.
, changed into a play.
In just a few months, "The Biography of Shu Nu" spread to all parts of Daqi.
At the palace banquet on New Year's Day, Queen Xie also asked the singer to sing this play.
Don’t underestimate the power of scripts and dramas. Ordinary people don’t understand court disputes, but they can understand easy-to-understand scripts and dramas.
"The Biography of Shu Nu" has been widely circulated, and along with the news of Princess Duanrou entering the court to take charge of politics, it was also spread to the people. When the people mentioned this matter, they did not reject it too much.
When compiler Mo wrote the script, he used a pseudonym. Therefore, no one knew that the script that became popular in the Qi Dynasty was written by compiler Mo of the Hanlin Academy.
After standing for half a day, my legs were sore. When the sun was high in the sky, the court meeting finally ended.
Editor Mo and several colleagues returned to the Hanlin Academy.
The Imperial Academy was not too busy, and Mo was free from editing errands, so when he had free time, he quietly thought about writing another storybook or something. Of course, he couldn't write in the official office, but it didn't hurt to have some thoughts in his mind.
Just as Mo Editor was wandering around in his mind, a voice suddenly sounded: "Mo Editor."
Editor Mo was agitated and stood up to salute: "I have seen the president."
Lu Zhangyuan of the Hanlin Academy has long been regarded as an idol by scholars in the Qi Dynasty who aspired to advance through the imperial examination. He won the top prize at the age of eighteen and served as a county magistrate in Shu. After returning to Beijing, he rose through the ranks and became a scholar in his thirties.
He became the president of the Hanlin Academy and became a high-ranking official in the court.
Lu Zhangyuan's beloved wife, Lin, is in charge of dozens of women's workshops and is Empress Xie's best friend and confidant.
Lu Zhangyuan's son, Lu Tianyou, won the Autumn Palace last year and is determined to win the Spring Palace this year. He and Princess Duanrou's childhood sweethearts are the perfect candidates for the consort...
He is simply a sure winner in life!
Lu Zhangyuan was gentle and easy-going, and smiled casually: "Come with me, I have something to tell you."
Editor Mo was surprised and happy, excited and anxious, and followed Lu Zhangyuan into the house.
Lu Zhangyuan didn't go around too much. After chatting for a while, he asked: "Is "The Biography of Shu Nu" written by you? That Mo Yinniang must be you!"
Editor Mo blushed furiously and hurriedly stood up to accuse him: "This official is making ridiculous nonsense, please forgive me, my lord in charge!"
A dignified official of the imperial court went to write a storybook, and the storybook became a hit and spread widely, which is really shameful.
However, Director Lu had no intention of blaming him and asked with a smile: "I ordered people to investigate for a long time before I found out. You have such a talent, you can't bury it."
Editor Mo: "..."
What's the meaning?
What does it mean not to bury your talent?
The young and handsome editor Mo looked confused and looked at Mr. Lu at a loss: "Master Mr. Zhang..."
Lu Zhangyuan smiled and said: "You don't have to be nervous. In fact, it is the emperor's wish that I come to you today. The emperor has also read your "The Legend of Shu Nu" and thinks that your writing is easy to understand and very exciting.
"
"You might as well think about it and write some similar story books, with women as the protagonists and character prototypes. For example, write "The Biography of the Female General", "The Biography of Academy Mountain Chief", "The Biography of the Queen" or "The Biography of the Emperor's Daughter"
And so on. Of course, when writing, you have to avoid a few taboos and just put your time in the front."
"Are you willing to do this?"
Editor Mo's handsome face flushed with excitement, he couldn't even speak, he just nodded.
