Chapter 64: Woman
"I beg your majesty to add Jing Jiayue to this list." Jingzi Qiao pleaded respectfully.
As soon as the words came out, not only the ministers were surprised, but Yu Wenrui was also confused.
"What does Jing Aiqing mean?"
"Your Majesty, Yang Lie usurped the throne, Beizheng is eyeing my Great Zhou, and a big war is inevitable. On the occasion of the country's employment, how can the Jing family stand by and watch from the sidelines for several generations? Yue'er has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she has been accompanying her for many years. Su Ri has inherited the grace of the king, how can he not share the worries for the king in times of emergency? The minister implored His Majesty to allow her to serve in the Xuanzhen army and be loyal to the enemy for the country! ”
The more Yu Wenrui listened, the tighter his brows furrowed.
The Jing family has been loyal for generations, which is good; Yue'er has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is familiar with military books, which is also true. But Yue'er is a girl, how can she do such a thing of fighting and killing? What if something goes wrong?
Yu Gong, she is the only descendant of the Jing family, and if there is an accident, she is sorry for the British government; Yu Private, she treats her like her sister, how can she be willing to send her to the battlefield?
The British duke's words were impassioned, however, who in the court didn't know that Yue'er was the baby bump of the British duke? From grandfather, to parents, uncles and aunts, all love like treasures.
What's going on? Let the British Duke be so determined to send Yue'er to the battlefield?
She stared at Jing Ziqiao's face, wanting to see even a trace of what he was thinking. Unexpectedly, Jing Ziqiao always hung his head respectfully, and Yu Wenrui's exploration was fruitless.
In front of the ministers, Yu Wenrui couldn't ask in detail, so she had to say: "Aiqing has a sincere heart, and I am deeply moved. But this is a major event on the battlefield, Rong Zhen thinks about it, and will discuss it later. ”
How could Jing Ziqiao not hear that she was trying to shirk? finally seized such an opportunity, how could he be willing to let it go? Then he bowed down and pleaded again: "Your Majesty! The minister's heart is very hot! I implore your majesty to read the thin noodles of the Jing family's several generations of service to the country, and let it go...... Let Yue'er go to the border! ”
That's a strange thing!
Yu Wenrui stared deeply at Jing Ziqiao's gray hair, only to feel that it had only been a few days since the autumn season, and the British Duke seemed to be a little older. What happened in the British Mansion?
She vaguely knew that it had something to do with her, but she couldn't guess what it was.
Without waiting for Yu Wenrui's reaction, Lu Kun, the secretary of the Ministry who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke gloomily: "The British Mansion is really 'loyal'!" The eldest prince of Jing is now serving in the military department, and the second prince of Jing has just entered the criminal department, and now even the little lady is going to the border to make military merits? Hehe......"
He was still self-aware, and he didn't dare to say "Miss Jing is our queen mother again."
When Jing Ziqiao heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord Lu wants to say that my Jing family dominates the government and the opposition and controls the government?" ”
Lu Kun didn't expect him to say this by himself, he was stunned for a moment, and then said coldly: "Hey, what does the British Duke think, Lu doesn't know." However, if Lu remembers well, the little lady is only fourteen years old this year, right? If you are not satisfied, you can be regarded as a handsome person? The adults can see it clearly, and the list written on His Majesty is 'young and handsome'! Or, the British Duke wants to train a female general and marshal for our Great Zhou? Ha ha! ”
Jing Ziqiao sneered: "Gan Luo is a Shangqing at the age of twelve, and Zhou Yu is a thirteen-year-old official who worships the governor of the navy army, is Lord Lu so lonely and unheard?" ”
Lu Kun looked up to the sky and snorted: "What if Ganluo is twelve years old and is the secretary?" Wasn't it obscure after that? As for Zhou Gongjin's thirteen-year-old worship of the Governor of the Navy Army, it was just a fabrication in the book, how could the British Duke still take it seriously? What's more, whether it's Ganluo or Zhou Gongjin, which one is a woman? ”
"Shut up!" Yu Wenrui shouted, "I'm still sitting here!" ”
The two ministers did not dare to argue again.
Yu Wenrui has always disliked Lu Kunqi, and he is even more angry at him for saying this at this moment. She swept coldly over Lu Kun, who only felt a chill run down his spine.
Yu Wenrui no longer looked at him, but said to everyone: "Isn't Emperor Gaozu a woman?" Am I not a woman? Dare to ask all the adults, since women can be the emperor and rule the world, how can they not be the general of Wenchen to assist the king? ”
Yu Wenrui's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and the ministers were unnaturally lowered their heads slightly by her. The emperor is getting older and deeper, and he is no longer the child who can read his mind just by looking at his eyes.
Yu Wenrui solemnly continued: "Lao Tzu said, 'Tao gives birth to one, life is two', and Shang even said 'one yin and one yang is the Tao'. In this world, neither the solitary yang nor the yin can survive for a long time. Thinking of my Da Zhou, Wuhua Tianbao, outstanding people, many heroes and talents, how can women be bad? As long as given the opportunity, women's talents will definitely not be inferior to men! Hey! I still want to open a female department to take the lady! ”
The ministers were surprised, looked at each other, and thought of the same question in their hearts: I am afraid that the day of this Great Zhou is about to change......
Seeing that Jing Ziqiao still wanted to open his mouth to say something, Yu Wenrui hurriedly said: "I know the patriotic heart of the British prince. I added Yue'er's name to it, and as for how to place her, whether to let her go to the Xuanzhen Army, this matter will be discussed in the long run. ”
Jing Ziqiao's heart was finally put down, he lifted his official robe, knelt down on his knees and bowed: "Look at Your Majesty, understand the hard work of the old minister!" ”
Yu Wenrui felt even more strange when he saw him suddenly make such a big gift, and hurriedly asked the little inner supervisor to help him up.
The ministers disbanded, and Yuwenrui left Pei Chonghui alone.
Pei Chonghui looked indifferent, as if he had known that this would be the case.
"Master, let's talk to me." When there were only two of them, Yu Wenrui did not use the title in the court.
"Okay." Pei Chonghui nodded.
The master and apprentice walked to the Imperial Garden.
Pei Chonghui looked up at a tree and said with a smile: "This tree has grown so tall, and the trunk is much thicker than seven years ago." ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to Yu Wenrui: "Your Majesty has also grown so tall." ”
Yu Wenrui grinned: "Is Master boasting about my growth?" ”
Pei Chonghui hooked his lips: "It is indeed growing, and he is becoming more and more like the emperor." ”
Yu Wenrui thought of the various situations he faced with the ministers before, and he was also a little proud: "The master teaches well, and the apprentice learns well, so he will naturally grow." ”
"Don't give your ministers a high hat, those imperial skills are not taught by ministers, you are self-taught."
Yu Wenrui always likes Master Pei's fresh and humorous words, so he also quipped: "Isn't that Master, you have developed my intelligence well?" ”
Pei Chonghui didn't bother to respond to her sycophancy, only smiled and said nothing.
Yu Wenrui walked side by side with him, and asked with concern: "Pei Xiang's illness, is it okay?" What is it? Do you want to let the Imperial Doctor take a look? ”
Pei Chonghui paused and said calmly: "My father's illness is angry with me. ”
"Huh?" Yu Wenrui was stunned for a moment, "What did Master say that Pei Xiang couldn't accept?" ”
Pei Chonghui smiled bitterly: "I haven't said anything yet!" He's ...... time to retreat."
Yu Wenrui raised his eyebrows.
"Your Majesty really wants to use troops against Beizheng?"
"yes, sooner or later."
Pei Chonghui's expression was complicated, and he said slowly: "The matter of soldiers is not a good thing for the people. ”
"I know. Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer', I understand this truth. However, the Great Zhou Dynasty founded the country since Taizu and Emperor Gaozu conquered the Quartet, so that the world was later unified. Emperor Wuzong made a fool of himself, so that Yang Can's rebellion, from Renzong to the first emperor, and then to me, all he thought about was the unification of the country, in order to comfort the heroic soul of the ancestors......"
"Your Majesty thinks that the country is unified, is it really good?" Pei Chonghui interrupted her and asked.
Yu Wenrui was stunned: "Of course it's good!" Who is the emperor who doesn't want to dominate the world! ”
Pei Chonghui was silent and smiled.
"What does Master want to say?" Yuwen Ruiqi said.
"If the minister says something rebellious, His Majesty will not punish the minister's sin, right?" Pei Chonghui asked with a smile.
Yu Wenrui blinked when he heard him actually move out of the words of the monarch and minister, "Master, where are you talking about this?" Am I the one who can't listen to advice? ”
"Do you remember the first lesson that the minister taught you back then?"
"I remember that Master said back then, 'The world is the world of the people, and the king is elected by the people, and it is the duty of the king to obey the will of the people and let the people live and work in peace and contentment.'"
Pei Chonghui bowed his head appreciatively: "Your Majesty has a good memory." So, what does His Majesty feel about this sentence now? ”
Yu Wenrui thought for a while and said, "I think this is very reasonable, the people of the world are my people, and I should think about their peace and contentment. ”
Pei Chonghui heard the word "people" and sighed secretly-
After all, this is the Great Zhou of the feudal era, how can it be possible to require a king under the feudal system to regard himself as equal and indistinguishable from the people?
It can be seen that nothing is perfect. Even if his fate fell into the mansion of an important minister, even if his career was smooth and he was in his early thirties, he lived in a four-rank official position, and he was an emperor with a bright future, he would not be able to realize his political ideals without flaws. Some things cannot be accomplished in one or two generations.
Pei Chonghui was relieved and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty said it very well, I think that when it comes to the unification of Beizheng, Your Majesty will definitely treat the people of Beizheng well." There is just one thing that Majesty must remember. ”
"Master, please speak."
"In this world, in addition to the Great Zhou, Beizheng, and Rongdi tribes, there are also very large regions, where there are land, seas, and of course, countries."
Night.
Xuanzheng Hall with hall.
"Master, the time is right, are you still restless? Carefully the light is dim, and it hurts the eyes. Shen Quan carefully put on a new lamp and candle and covered the lampshade.
Yu Wenrui didn't raise his head, and his hand was still brushing and criticizing: "After reading this stack." ”
Shen Quan glanced at the half-foot-thick stack of folds, and secretly complained: How long will this last?
It's strange to say, since the day before yesterday the emperor came back from Qinfang Pavilion, it was like a different person, every day honestly went to the court, and the court was not idle, either the courtiers discussed matters, or they were in the Xuanzheng Hall with the hall to approve the folds. It is the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, except for the daily greetings, they rarely go.
Could it be that the Queen Mother's punishment that day worked? Shen Quan pondered secretly.
With his many years of understanding of the emperor, this master is a very good idea, and she will be restrained by punishment? He didn't believe Shen Quan when he killed him!
It is impossible to converge, but I am afraid that the more punishment is given, the more powerful this ancestor is, it is true!
Why, exactly?
Shen Quan was deeply confused.
Two quarters of an hour passed in the exhibition of his eyes, and Shen Quan saw that the little emperor was still working hard to write, occasionally frowning and working the performance, and he also felt distressed.
"Master, why don't you ask the imperial dining room to get some snack? What do you think you'd like to get in? The slave and maid went and commanded. ”
Yu Wenrui's brows tightened: "Why are you so verbose?" What kind of dim sum to eat? Are you going to feed me as a pig? That's it, go and rest! I don't need anyone to serve here. ”
Shen Quanfu amount.
What are you doing? Those who don't eat or drink only know how to work hard? It can't be that there is something evil in the Qinfang Pavilion, right?
Anyway, you are here, how dare the slave and maid just go and rest? Even if you dare, you have to be?
He didn't have an idea here, he only heard the sound of the palace maid lifting the curtain, and then a warm voice came: "What time is it, why don't you sleep yet?" How can you work hard at this moment? ”
