"Tian Khan Rongyu: The deadline has come, and my king has repeatedly sent letters urging us to return to the country. Thank you for the Khan's hospitality for days, but it's a pity that the Xin family can't write poems, how to deal with it is a family matter of the Great Wei, and it is not good for me to talk too much. The envoys of Tubo and Nanzhao showed dissatisfaction and took their leave.

"Your Majesty, Xin only read a few books, and then he took over the important task of national etiquette in vain, insulting me to be coquettish and disappointing my friends! Xin does not know the height of the sky, so he should be beheaded to thank the world!" Almost at the same time, Wang Jian shouted angrily.

"Xin's arrogance! It should be beheaded to thank the world!" Dozens of courtiers who were attached to the Wang family bowed down at the same time, and the sound of beheading almost lifted the roof of the palace.

Emperor Li He glanced at the black-faced envoy, looked at Wang Jian, who was bound to win, and finally looked at the closed palace door, his eyes crossed with pity and unbearability, and his fingertips suddenly clenched into fists, but they loosened weakly.

"That's it. I also hope that after the two envoys return to China, they will convey the sincerity of our Great Wei repair. I'm not far away. Li He sighed and waved his hand to see off the guests.

Wang Jian glanced at the jade leak in the corner of the hall, and showed a smug smile: Although there is still half a moment before the deadline, it is only half a moment, and with one breath of effort, the end is almost certain.

The envoy said goodbye again, led dozens of envoys, and was about to turn away, when the door of the Lin De Hall was rumbled open from the outside, but the envoy's footsteps froze-

The doors of the temple were not opened for them.

It's because someone from outside is coming in.

A eunuch holding a scroll, panting and trotting in, skipped the envoys, and bowed his head: "Enlighten the emperor! Xin has finished composing the poem! Please take a look at the emperor and the envoys!"

The jade leak in the corner of the temple is ticking and ticking, half a moment has passed, just ten days.

The beads of sweat on the eunuch's forehead were also dripping, apparently just getting the scroll and rushing all the way into the hall.

The envoy was stunned. Li He was stunned. The civil and military officials were stunned. The Lin De Hall fell into a brief stasis.

Wang Jian's face changed, but he was the first to react, gritted his teeth and said: "The Xin family sent the poems at the last moment, presumably in a hurry, and did it shoddy! I also asked the emperor to open the book! If the words do not reach the meaning, insulting my coquettish origin in the Central Plains, it will be impossible to escape the death penalty!"

Li He nodded in agreement. The great eunuch Zheng Zhong stepped forward, took the scroll, and stood in front of the palace in person, unfolding it to signal the ministers.

"Cut the bamboo first, then connect the two ends. After loading the earth pills, the end shoots birds and beasts. ”

The first thing that catches my eye is the two crosses on rice paper: poems written by Xin Yi.

"Ridiculous! What bullshit doesn't understand! Can this be called poetry! Even beggars on the street can read it! Xin's arrogance ......" Wang Jian burst into a sneer, but the laughter came to an abrupt end.

First of all, the envoys of Tubo and Nanzhao nodded their heads again and again, smiling happily: "Good poems! Good poems! Easy to understand, crisp and neat! It's much better than those ancient rhymes that wrap around the past!"

Then the officials of the entire hall gasped.

Not because of the poems themselves.

Rather, it is because of the words of the poem.

One by one, one horizontally and one vertically. The rhyme is harmonious and elegant, scattered and simple, and the technique is subtle and subtle, and the passage is endless. The dot painting is warm, the blood is smooth, and the wind is sprinkled. The whole article is charming and energetic, and there are endless changes, and none of the two crosses are the same, if God helps. The majestic atmosphere, out of nature, looking at the whole article, reading the whole poem, there is a feeling of the breeze entering the sleeve and the bright moon (Note 1).

This is not like a mortal's pen, only the heavenly book of the gods can be so moving.

Just two crosses, put the Buddha beyond the millennium pen and ink, there seem to be ghosts and gods crying in the hall, the gods roaring, just looking at half an eye, the whole heart and mind can be taken.

Book from the sky. The Book of God. The Pinnacle Book. The Book of Extremes.

The civil and military officials are all the sons of the cold window for ten years, and their faces are sensational at this moment, and even more excited and tearful, kneeling down to the scroll like worshipping their ancestors, sighing and dumbfounded, their eyes can't be turned.

On the one hand, the hall is full of amazement, and everyone is speechless, "the book is extreme, and it can still be seen in this life", and on the other hand, there are barbarians who don't know how to read, and they are also praising "clear and easy to understand, good poems and good poems".

Lin De Hall went from being cold to having a cold killing intent to a warm spring breeze.

Wang Jian also swallowed dryly, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty!

"Lord Wang is angry. The eunuch who was the first to send the scroll into the hall spoke, bowed to Li He and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Xin also asked the slave to bring a message to the emperor: "Chu Yun is coquettish, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”

Emperor Li He reluctantly took his eyes off the scroll and laughed: "Okay! What a coquettish Chu Yun, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting! The Central Plains culture has a long history, and the barbarians from all directions are respected! It is not only poetry, but also includes the six arts, and naturally it also includes words!"

The ministers who were still clamoring for beheading in the past seemed to be confused by that pair of words, and they bowed down in a daze: "The emperor is sage! Coquettish and elegant, including not only poems, but also books! Books are the way, and ink treasures are treasures! All can represent my Chinese etiquette!"

"Thank you Tian Khan! We are very satisfied with this poem! Thank you Tian Khan for the treasure! Great Wei Southern Xinjiang, diplomatic relations are forever!" The envoys of Tubo and Nanzhao also bowed down happily, their faces full of red light.

Harmonious, warm. Except for the people of the Wang family whose faces were as blue as frostbite.

"Your Majesty! Xin's is opportunistic! Deliberately distorting the topic!" Wang Jian was so anxious that he shouted, but in the praise of the full hall, even if this objection was on the head of the surname Wang, it seemed too weak.

Emperor Li He glanced at Wang Jian coldly and interrupted the conversation: "Enough! The envoys of friendly countries are satisfied, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are satisfied, do you still have to carry the Wang family on your back? Or do you want to go with my court on your back, no matter what I want?"

The last sentence brought chills.

Wang Jiantong was stunned, and just wanted to fight back. can think that he does not have an absolute advantage in military power, but he is a civil minister, and even the upper position has to rely on Li Jingpei, the king of Zhao.

He wasn't the Lou he was back then. There is no "power" in the air, but there is no "soldier". and did not dare to completely tear his face with the royal family.

Wang Jian's fire was suddenly poured with cold water. He puffed out his cheeks a few times, swallowed this breath, and lowered his iron rooster-like head: "The minister has no objection." ”

Li He clapped his hands and laughed: "I am very satisfied with this national gift! You have no jokes! I will fulfill my promise and reward the Xin family! Do you have any objections?"

At the state banquet of Huaqing Palace, Li He put down the conversation: If Xinyi succeeds in composing poems, the emperor will be rewarded. The ministers testified, and the world knew, this is undeniable.

"The emperor is shengming, the Xin family should be rewarded!" The civil and military officials knelt down in unison, but they didn't care too much in their hearts.

Even if the national gift is successful, Xin Yi is just a commoner woman, and the so-called reward, at best, gives gold and silver brocade, and at most restores the title of her foreign wife, which is the emperor's grace.

However, Li He's next words shocked the entire Lin De Palace-

"Ci Xinyi, walk in the inner court!"

Inner Court Walk (Note 2). It is not an official position, but a privilege to be sealed. From nine products to one product, they can be sealed. However, only male officials were eligible for the title.

The giver is allowed to enter and exit freely in the Daming Palace, to see the emperor, to visit the scenery, and there are no scruples, so the articles that can be made in this are big.

You must know that even if you are a high-quality minister, you must have an imperial edict to enter and leave the palace. Otherwise, it is a great rebellious felony, and if you step into the palace half a step without an edict, you can punish the nine clans.

Therefore, walking in the palace, even if it is not in the ranks, there is no money, but it is a reward that Xiang Chongchen is also greedy. Even if the Jiupin Sesame Official got this seal, General Guogong had to bend down flatteringly.

But when this privilege is given to a woman, or a civilian woman, whether it is gender or identity, any one of them is picked out, it is a shocking act that violates the ancestral teachings, and it is the first seal of deviance.

Therefore, when the imperial token of "walking in the inner court" was sent to Xinfu, thousands of scholars of the Great Wei Dynasty went crazy, and the hundred and ten officials of the court also went crazy.

Exegesis:

1. Bright Moon into the Arms: The whole paragraph describes Du Yunzhi's words, drawing on the description of the calligraphy achievements of the "Lanting Collection Preface" by later generations. Source Sogou Encyclopedia, not annotated one by one, all after reorganization, copy and paste.

2. Inner court walking: It is a unique official title in the Qing Dynasty, and its appearance is closely related to the "close servant" of courtiers. Judging from the composition, source, identity and characteristics of the "inner court" personnel, these important ministers who walked the inner court, while serving the inner court and seeking state affairs, have actually formed a mechanism for the reaggregation of "important positions" around the emperor. In short, "walking" is a kind of empowerment in the official position of the official himself, and the "official" has become a personal "think tank" trusted by the emperor, and the words of the "think tank" are even more effective than the recitals in the court. This article is needed for a novel, just understand the meaning, and don't study it in detail.
