Wang Zhen doesn't know calligraphy and painting, but he sees that this scroll is mainly ink, with a slight light color, elegant and natural style, with the charm of literati brush and ink, quite a lot of brushwork! Said respectfully: "Back to the emperor, the slave can't paint, but the slave sees that the emperor's brushwork on this scroll is fresh and elegant, and it has everyone's style?" “

Zhu Zhanji has a good temperament today, and when he heard this, he smiled and said: "Mr. Wang's words are exaggerated!" After speaking, he didn't look at Wang Zhen, looked at Yang Shiqi and said, "Yang Aiqing, you come to help me take a look, how is this calligraphy and painting?" ”

Yang Shiqi put down the teacup, walked forward, first saluted, and then looked at the calligraphy and painting on the dragon case, which depicted the ewe and the two suckling sheep, and used the bamboo tree and camellia as the backdrop. "Sheep" and "yang" are homophonic, and "bamboo" is homophonic to "wish", so this painting has the meaning of congratulating "Sanyang Kaitai". After a few glances, he nodded secretly, and said that in the past, he heard that the prince You Gong painted, landscapes, people, animals, flowers and birds, grass and insects, etc., all of which were wonderful, and today I saw that it was not true, and I continued to take a closer look, and saw that the brushwork was not good, the style was elegant and natural, with the charm of literati brush and ink, and nodded and said: "Your Majesty Xià has strong brushwork, the combination of movement and stillness of the picture, and a rare good painting with appropriate shades?" After a pause, he said: "It is even more rare that the meaning of the picture scroll is very clever, yang and sheep have the same sound, and sheep is yang." "Three yang" is early yang, positive yang, and evening yang. The morning sun enlightens, and its Taiwan shines; Zhengyang Zhongtian, its Taiwan Xuanlang; The sunset shines, and its platform shoots. All of them are full of vitality. "Tai" is the name of the hexagram, the Qianxia Kun, the heaven and the earth are handed over and all things are connected. When we see "Thai", it is always auspicious. Kaitai to "seek wealth" to divination, that is, to open up the road to wealth; To "propose" is to open the door of love. Sheep, that is, auspicious! Now that His Majesty has ascended the throne as the emperor, it is an auspicious photo of my Ming Dynasty! ”

To say that this master pats sycophants, it is very particular, and a successful sycophant must be patted to the point that the other party is unaware of it, and it is called a sycophant to the point of moistening silently, which is superior. If the other party finds out, then the heat of this sycophant is not good, if there are others present, and the person who pats the horse is also suspected of slapping the horse's whiskers, and is despised, then this sycophant is second. What if the horse doesn't find the other party's needs and hits the horse's feet? I am afraid that if it fails to achieve the effect, it will also be ravaged by the horse's hooves, and the second is inferior. Yang Shiqi's sycophant is undoubtedly superior, and it is just right to use Sanyang Kaitai to imply Zhu Zhanji's ascension to the throne, which makes people feel comfortable, Wang Zhen on the side sighed secretly and said: "This sycophant kung fu is really powerful, no wonder people can be university scholars, cabinet ministers, second, I can only be a writing eunuch, it seems that I still have to learn?" ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said: "What a Sanyang Kaitai, Yang Aiqing is really old-fashioned?" ”

Yang Shiqi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty praised it in seconds?" After speaking, he glanced at the scroll again, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something but did not say anything.

Zhu Zhanji put the pen on the scroll and stamped the imperial seal of "Treasure of Guangyun", then glanced at Yang Shiqi and said, "Yang Aiqing has something to say?" ”

Yang Shiqi thought for a while and said, "Weichen does have something to say?" ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said: "When my father was alive, I gave Yang Aiqing a seal book to commend her virtue and loyalty, and what I praised was Yang Aiqing's straightforward merit. “

When Renzong was alive, Yang Shiqi had many recommendations, and when Renzong was the prince, he hated Yushi Shu Zhongcheng and wanted to punish him after he ascended the throne. Yang Shiqi said: "After His Majesty ascended the throne, those who had issued edicts were exempted from sin. If Shu Zhongcheng's sin was to be cured, the edict at that time would not be believed, and many ministers would be afraid of it. Why can't the emperor follow the example of Emperor Jing of Han to treat Wei Juan? Renzong then dismissed this thought. At that time, some people said that Yu Qian, the secretary of Dali Temple, was not secret, and Mingrenzong was furious and demoted to one level. Yang Shiqi spoke for him, and Yu Qian was able to restore his hometown. After that, Dali Temple Shaoqing Yiqian was offended by his words. Yang Shiqi said: "Yi Qian is in response to the edict and said. If he were to be guilty, I am afraid that the ministers would not speak anymore. Therefore, Akihito Sect established Yiqian as the deputy capital of the imperial history, and he blamed himself.

At that time, some ministers wrote a letter praising the peaceful and prosperous times, and Akihito showed it to the ministers, and the ministers thought so. Only Yang Shiqi said: "Although His Majesty has been conquered by the world, the exiles implicated in the Jing Disaster have not yet returned to their hometowns, the sores caused by the war have not yet recovered, and the people are still worried about food and clothing." We should continue to recuperate for a few years before peace and prosperity can be expected. Akihito agreed, and said, "I am sincere to you, and I hope that Kuang Zheng will assist and correct his mistakes. But only Yang Shiqi has been on the book five times, and none of you have said a word. Is it true that there is nothing wrong with the affairs of the imperial court? Is the world too peaceful? The ministers apologized in shame. In April of the same year, Akihito gave Yang Shiqi a seal in recognition of his virtue and loyalty. Emperor Renzong had a lot of words to Zhu Zhanji about this matter, and he remembered it in his heart, looking at his appearance at this time, it was clear that he had something to say, but he was silent for some reason.

Yang Shiqi pondered for a moment, and said in his heart: "The soldier dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases himself, Renzong trusts me, how can I live up to his trust?" After thinking about it, he said: "Wei Chen Su asked His Majesty how exquisite the calligraphy is Danqing, and ...... the minister happy in his heart?" “

Zhu Zhanji sat down, Wang Zhen's eyes were quick, and he sent a cup of high-quality Longjing tea over, Zhu Zhanji lowered his head and blew a mouthful of tea soup, and then glanced at Yang Shiqi, according to his impression of Yang Shiqi, this cabinet minister is not a master who can only pat on the back, and the next words, I am afraid that it will not sound good, and I thought about it: "Yang Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt?" “

Yang Shiqi responded and continued: "It's just that Weichen thinks that calligraphy and danqing are the last small skills, since the danqing and calligraphy of his majesty are completely mature, there is no need to spend more time on the post, and the painting ......?" Speaking of this, he glanced up at Zhu Zhanji's reaction, and saw that his expression was indifferent, and there was no anger between his eyebrows, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, for the new emperor's temperament, he had not yet figured it out, and he didn't know whether he liked to listen to his own advice, but the words had already begun, and there was absolutely no reason to take it back, so he gritted his teeth and continued: "The Son of Heaven rules the country with virtue, and the cultivation of art does not need to be deep, but can be understood if necessary; According to Weichen's opinion, art cultivation is a deep Son of Heaven, and the evaluation of historical books is not high, such as Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Liang Yuan, Emperor Chen Houzhu, Emperor Yang of Sui, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Song Ningzong and others, who can be called extremely talented musicians, painters, calligraphers, and poets, but in the end, because they were addicted to art and did not cultivate the government, the country was defeated and died. The Son of Heaven is the lord of man, and what he should be considerate of is the food and clothing of the ministers of the whole country.

"In a good sentence, the Son of Heaven is the lord of the man, and what he should be considerate of is the food and clothing of the ministers of the whole country. In the face of Yang Aiqing's words, I know that Aiqing is loyal to the monarch in her heart? Zhu Zhanji put down the tea soup, stood up and said loudly.

Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty praised, Your Majesty's talent and wisdom are really the blessings of my Ming Dynasty and the blessings of the people?" ”

Zhu Zhanji smiled leisurely and said, "Guang I can't be wise alone, this world still needs a talent like Yang Aiqing who dares to speak out, and remind me from time to time?" Otherwise, I'm going to be obsessed with Danqing calligraphy and painting? ”

Yang Shiqi was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, ...... Weichen?" “

Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, as if he knew what Yang Shiqi was going to say, interrupted his words and said: "Yang Aiqing's words are heartfelt words, how can I not know, as the Son of Heaven, I should focus on the world and the people, as Aiqing said, no matter how good Danqing is, no matter how wonderful the calligraphy is, if you can't govern the country well, it will be useless for me and me to be clear, this picture scroll, this calligraphy is better to practice less?" “

"Your Majesty!" Yang Shiqi bowed and said.

Zhu Zhanji smiled, listening to Yang Aiqing's words, I benefited a lot! In the future, please ask Yang Aiqing to speak more bluntly? I have made mistakes to correct them, and I am crowned without mistakes! “

"Wechen is terrified!" Yang Shiqi bowed his head and said.

Zhu Zhanji laughed and said: "Yang Aiqing doesn't have to be afraid, my father gave you a seal book to commend his virtue and loyalty, and I also gave you something today?" After saying that, he walked back to the bookcase, and inscribed on the painting: "I am only a sage who has the tools to govern, and since his accession to the throne, he has repeatedly edicted that there are people who are virtuous and intelligent, and they will work together to govern the road." However, there must be those who lead far away and do not come out lightly, and I can't help but think about it at night. The husband asks for sale in vain, which is not the intention of the hero; Pure body and goodness, is it ...... among the sages? A line of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing, and then handed it to Yang Shiqi and said: "I will give this painting to Aiqing, may Aiqing remember today's actions and remind me of my ...... from time to time?" ”

Yang Shiqi was overjoyed, although he opposed the emperor's Danqing wonderful pen, but I have to say that the emperor's "Sanyang Kaitai Map" was painted very well, and it was very collectible, so he immediately took it with both hands.

Although Wang Zhen on the side doesn't know how to paint, he can also see that this painting scroll is clear and has a very good demeanor, and it is a rare good painting, which is always hung high at home, and he does not envy the dead person.

Yang Shiqi put away the picture scroll, seeing that the emperor sat down to drink tea, he had to re-sit in his seat, Wang Zhenji cleverly re-brewed a cup of tea soup for Yang Shiqi, through the scene just now, he had already seen that the old man in front of him, who was just doing nothing, won the trust of the emperor, and this glory was not something he could achieve, so it was always right to be a little more attentive.

Yang Shiqi has no dislike for eunuchs, what eunuchs bring disaster to the country and the people, that is, the emperor is too mediocre and incompetent, if the emperor is diligent in government affairs, how can a good country be influenced by a eunuch, so he has a good impression of Wang Zhen, a very eye-catching eunuch, and takes the tea soup with a smile.
