Chapter 105: Courtly Eloquence (2)

Ru Yan thanked Long En, and then returned to Yu Wenche and said, "Your Majesty, the minister still feels that there is something wrong with this matter!" ”

"Aiqing thinks what's wrong?"

"Back to the emperor, the minister is too young and his qualifications are still shallow, and taking on this great responsibility is probably going to attract criticism!" , Ru Yan replied. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Who dares to criticize?" , Yu Wenche asked loudly.

Ru Yan said again: "Your Majesty, although no one will openly express dissatisfaction, but the appearance is not convinced, and the lust is fierce and inward, I believe that this is not what Your Majesty wants, nor is it what the ministers want, let alone the wishes of those who oppose it!" ”

Yan Kuo couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward and said, "Then what does Lord Chen want?" ”

Ru Yan smiled slightly and asked Yan Kuodao: "Then what is the biggest reason why Lord Yan thinks that the lower officials are not worthy of being officials and are not worthy of the court's deliberations?" ”

Yan Kuo replied: "Do you need to say that?" In all dynasties, how can there be a woman who goes to the court to point fingers? Si Chen is simply intolerable, and women as officials are even more troublesome! ”

Yan Kuo spoke impassionedly and sharply, however, Ru Yan still did not change her face and replied calmly: "First of all, let me answer Lord Yan's first question, the question of women being officials. Yes, there have been no such cases in all dynasties, but as long as it is something that has not been done in ancient times, can it not be done? ”

"Is it okay?" , Yu Wenzhao asked.

"Let's ask the king of Huainan, looking at the ancient ancestors, if there was no first person to discover that drilling wood can make fire and fire can roast food, then we still live a life of drinking blood and slashing and burning; If Cangjie hadn't been the first to create words, then, now, we are all just a group of ignorant fools; If it weren't for Luozu's first silkworm weaving cloth, I'm afraid the prince would still be standing naked in this hall today, right? ”

Yu Wenche not only secretly applauded Ru Yan's wit, but he was also afraid that Ru Yan's words would make King Huainan's face unbearable, but when he glanced at King Huainan again, there was no anger on his face, but Yan Kuo couldn't help it.

Yan Kuo said: "Clever tongue, forcible sophistry, don't always use those shadowless ancients as an analogy!" Women can't be officials, women are officials, and they put men's faces like this? ”

"Well, we don't look at the past, we only look at the present. As we all know, there are also regulations that foreigners are not officials, however, at the beginning of the opening of the territory, the first emperor of our dynasty appointed the general Tenggenda of the Liao nationality very wisely, what was the result? I believe that General Tengenda's exploits are familiar to everyone, right? Another example is that the emperor wisely opened a precedent for Dayun not to reuse civil officials, as long as civil officials have outstanding merits, they can also eat thousands of stones, seal thousands of households, in this way, make the best use of martial arts, make the best use of literature, and also make my Dayun more prosperous. Lord Yan, I'm afraid you're the best example, aren't you? ”

Yan Kuo didn't say a word after hearing this.

Ru Yan continued: "Therefore, there is nothing that should and should not be, when it is not appropriate, reasonable and unreasonable, whether it is heavenly reason or human reason, there has never been such a precedent, how do you know that it is unreasonable? ”

Yan Kuo didn't bother to argue with Ru Yan, and said to Yuwen Che with an anxious expression: "Your Majesty, you have to think twice about this matter, Your Majesty!" Those who build beams must support the old tree to maintain stability, and the minister has never seen people build houses with new seedlings and shoots. All drinkers know that old wine is mellow and sweet, and new wine is weak and tasteless; Anyone who cooks knows that old ginger is spicy and delicious, firm and delicious, but young ginger has no such effect! ”

Sun Tingguang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, continued: "Your Majesty, depending on the ministers, it's not necessarily true!" ”

"Oh, Aiqing, please speak!" , For Sun Tingguang's speech, Yu Wenche was very happy.

Sun Tingguang replied: "The minister thinks that there are exceptions to everything, and the meritorious generals cannot be speculated according to the set of ordinary people, and Lord Chen must be virtuous after the founding of our dynasty." The so-called dragon gives birth to a dragon, and a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix! ”

"I don't think so!" , Yan Kuo replied with a straight face.

"Lord Yan, I won't say anything far away, your grandson is Yan Wuji, and Yan Gongzi is an example. Yan Gongzi adheres to the wisdom and virtues of the eldest princess and the attached horse, and has performed very well since he was a child. I heard that the eldest princess loved Yan Gongzi very much, and she didn't want him to seek fame, but only wanted him to be by her side, so she explicitly ordered not to let Yan Gongzi go out. However, when Yan Gongzi was sixteen years old, he secretly participated in the triennial literary examination, and the result was easily the first place! This incident has always been rumored to be a good story, isn't this the best example? ”

Yu Wenche said: "Yes, Wuji has performed extremely well among the emperor's grandsons since he was a child, if it weren't for the imperial sister's insistence on not letting him enter the office, I would definitely take it for my own use, coupled with carving and cultivation, without a holiday, Wuji is not only not inferior to Yan Aiqing, but will definitely be better than the blue!" ”

Yan Kuo's face changed slightly, and he replied: "The emperor has won the award, and the qualifications of the child are dull, and he is embarrassed!" ”

Sun Tingguang said: "Why is Lord Yan so humble? ”

"Lord Sun, what we are discussing today is whether this woman can go out of the court and become an official!" , Yan Kuo replied sharply.

Sun Tingguang was stopped by Yan Kuo and returned to his position.

Ru Yan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Yan means that the minister is too young and has little qualifications, and it is difficult to take on a big responsibility!" The minister is willing to accept the assessment of the imperial court, and only after passing the assessment can he dare to accept this position with peace of mind! ”

"What if you can't get through?" , Yu Wenzhao asked.

"If you can't get through, the minister is willing to dismiss the official and return to his hometown!" , Ru Yan replied with a firm expression.

"That's what you said, what is the assessment? How is it assessed? ", Yu Wenzhao asked.

"Xia Guan thinks that the method and content of the assessment will be more convincing by Lord Yan and Lord Wang!" , Ru Yan said.

"What do you think of the two Aiqing?" , Yu Wenche asked.

Before Yan Kuo and Yu Wenzhao could reply, Sun Tingguang preemptively said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a intention in his heart, I don't know if it is feasible?" ”

"Aiqing, please speak!" , Yuwen Che said.

"I heard that in recent months, there have been repeated incidents of young girls being tied up in their sleep in the suburbs of Beijing, which has made the people in Beijing panic, and the people in the suburbs of Beijing have moved away! I suggest that Lord Chen and Yan Gongzi investigate this case together, and whoever finds out the truth first will win! Sun Tingguang said.

Yan Kuo was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Yu Wenche: "Your Majesty, this matter is not feasible, Ji'er has never had experience in handling cases, such a competition is not fair!" ”

Yu Wenzhao also stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, besides, this Lord Chen, as far as I know, has experience in judging cases before, and I think this matter is also unfair!" ”

Sun Tingguang hit the railway while it was hot: "Lord Yan, Lord Wang, this is bad. Judgment is about wisdom and insight. Wisdom is beyond doubt for Yan Gongzi, and although Yan Gongzi has never had formal experience in judging cases before, he is a few years older than Lord Chen, and he is from the nobles of the Imperial City, so this insight is also indispensable! ”

Ru Yan continued: "What's more important is that Yan Gongzi is a man, and Xia Guan is a woman, according to Master Sun, this woman should not be able to become a climate." So, what are Lord Yan and the prince worried about? ”

Yan Kuo and Yu Wenzhao still wanted to discuss, but they were interrupted by Yu Wenche, "Okay, this matter is decided!" (To be continued.) )
