CHAPTER XVI

The Midyear Festival is approaching, and my father and emperor must go to the shore of Jingwei to worship in person for some reason. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As soon as this order was issued, most of the DPRK and China opposed it.

"Your Majesty," Wang Taifu was dying, but he still sounded like a bell, "the first is not a farmer's time, and the other is not an ancient ceremony, but it is just a festival of the undead made up by the witch Tao. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and I am afraid that it will not be in line with the etiquette when I go to sacrifice in person. The sage said, 'Worship the ghosts and gods and stay away'. The sacrificial thing is the good work of the barbarians such as Shu and Chu, and I rule the world with courtesy, righteousness, benevolence and filial piety, and I can't do ghosts and gods. ”

"What Wang Taifu said is very true," Yun Ling took a step forward and said, "The words of the ghosts and gods cannot be trusted. Presumably, Wang Taifu is also the only one who is deeply aware of Confucianism, so he is not afraid of ghosts and gods, and he will force his own granddaughter to death. ”

Wang Taifu kowtowed to his father: "Your Majesty, this has nothing to do with the old minister's family affairs!" Yun Ling, as a courtier, is so sassy and confuses the public. The old minister asked Shen Yunling to be guilty of 'disturbing the dynasty'!"

Yun Ling said: "The minister seconded the proposal. But please punish your majesty. However, Wang's youngest daughter was seven years old, and was forced by her own grandfather just because she accepted a piece of cake from a domestic servant, and starved to death in the room for half a month. ”

Hongu stood at the foot of the golden steps, trying to disguise himself as a quail. The ban has just been lifted from the East Palace, and this kind of thing is going to be touched by this palace.

Wang Taifu really blew up his beard: "Nonsense, kid is arrogant!"

Yun Ling replied unhurriedly: "Gu Zuoyan said to him, my lord is sorry." ”

The father probably couldn't listen to it anymore, so he raised his hand to stop it: "Okay." What does it look like to be noisy and yelling. When I am here at the entrance of the East and West markets? The matter of the Jingwei sacrifice during the Midyear Festival has been decided, and there is no need to discuss it. ”

"Your Majesty!"

"What," my father smiled slightly, "Wang Qing also wants me to take back my life?"

Wang Taifu, the old minister of the three dynasties, the family of emperors, and the contemporary Confucian, also prostrate on the ground at this time, and said: "Minister...... How dare you!"

The only people who once asked his father to "take back his fate" in this dynasty were the former head of the Zhao family in Chang'an, the father of Empress Zhao, Pinghou, Changping Hou, and Changle Hou, the maternal grandfather of Prince Shen, Zhang Pinghou and Zhao Xian's sibling brother, and Zhao Cheng Zhao Lao Prime Minister. The word "also" from the father and emperor inevitably evoked the memories of the Manchu courtiers and subordinates of the bloody storm, and for a while everyone was in danger and silent.

Bengong quietly looked up at his father, and when he saw that he was just sitting on the throne casually, he was no longer angry.

For the emperor to be so.

Yun Ling clashed with the Wang family in front of the court, which was very unexpected by the palace. Although he was also considered to be in line with the emperor's heart, he took the lead in opposing the Confucian family, which was tantamount to declaring war on the two dynasties of the gate lord and the Qingliu scholar at the same time.

Is Yun Ling really so stupid?

After going down, the palace obediently followed the royal chariot back to the Chongyuan Hall and copied the previously prepared "Rite".

The father flipped through it casually and put it on the desk. Hongu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Zou Wuji's handwriting is already the same as that of the palace, if it weren't for his habit of leaving a pen on the name of the palace, the palace would not be able to tell which one was copied by the palace itself and which one was written by him.

"The prince has worked hard these days. A smile appeared on his father's face.

"The son is ashamed. Bengong hurriedly arched his hand and said, "I have copied the "Rite" ten times, and I can't recite it backwards. "The court has just reprimanded the head of Confucianism, and at this time, the palace does not need to show off its familiarity with Confucianism.

Sure enough, the father waved his hand and said, "You are late in enlightenment." There's no hurry. ”

At the age of eleven, he was officially enlightened, and he entered Taixue to study under the recommendation of Zhao Gou, and there is indeed no prince who is later than Bengong to be enlightened.

"Erchen and his younger brother study together, and it is Erchen who is skillful. ”

"Don't be too modest. Back then, I went to Taixue to inspect and read your article, and I am afraid that even Prince Shen is a little inferior to it. Father said lightly, "I still remember." Wang Taifu asked you to talk about the sages, and you used the mercenary arguments of the Mohists and the Legalists, and you were sentenced to the next sentence. In fact, the idea is very novel, but it is inevitable that I am a little impatient. ”

The articles of the palace back then were rarely on the top. Most of them are upper-middle, medium-medium. Taixue is respected by Confucianism headed by Wang Taifu. Confucianism attaches great importance to Taoism, and even if the palace thoroughly eats the Confucian scriptures, it is impossible to be higher than Prince Shen as the deputy monarch in terms of judgment. So the palace simply took a hundred schools, and did not look forward to the Confucian sages.

"I've heard for a long time that my father has never forgotten it, but now I have seen it. I don't remember the article from so long ago. ”

"Flim Flam. Father said cheerfully.

The main palace also followed the colorful clothes to entertain the relatives.

The father and son performed for a while in front of the attendants, and the father suddenly said, "Does the prince think that my decision today is right or wrong?"

The main palace is positive: "The father's words are serious, the decision of the Son of Heaven, there is no room for the subordinates to put their beaks." ”

"The prince doesn't have to be nervous," the father still smiled, "Let's father and son, just gossip." Zhang'er thinks that what are the pros and cons of his father's move?"

This is a test of the main palace. Has Prince Shen ever been tested like this?

"Wow. In the humble opinion of his sons, his father's move is the power of the heavenly family. Although it was opposed by Confucianism at first, the Great Zhou was not established for Confucianism, and Confucianism was used because they respected the king. If Confucianism is delusional about opposing the object, then replace it with other doctrines. No matter what sect it is, it is just a weapon for governing the country in the hands of the king, and it can be used where it is available, and it is okay to eliminate it if it is not useful. ”

The hall was silent for a moment.

Hongu didn't react until he finished speaking. Oh no, eager to win, and overlooked for a while, such a big rebellious thing was also spoken!

was nervous, but he heard his father snort, stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, good!

"If the prince is here, he should shout 'Sage Cloud' again. The father urged the emperor to narrow the way, and said to the left and right: "Look, is Zhang'er more capable than Prince Shen?"

The waiters laughed together, and the palace had no choice but to make an ignorant and unconscious smile.

Prince Zhao Shen died for a few months, and his father didn't even mention his name. The attendants have been with you for a long time, and how to react has long been familiar.

Only Zhao Gou stood in the corner from the beginning and didn't say a word.

The father didn't know it, he was wanton and relaxed, and asked a few questions in a row. The palace took the words of a hundred schools to deal with the past, and sure enough, it got comments such as "better than Prince Shen".

It stands to reason that this palace should be happy. But Zhao Gou stood at the bottom of the stairs with an expressionless face, and that look, even if the palace was facing away from him, he couldn't go back in his mind.

Better than Prince Zhao Shen.

But Prince Zhao Shen, isn't it precisely because he seeks victory in everything and persecutes the Son of Heaven as a vice monarch that he ends up like that?
