0006 Enemy Country
After a Ciwu poem was chanted, there was no other sound in the room for a long time.
Shangguan Wan'er took a copy of the record book from the female historian and read it carefully for a long time, especially the one "Ciwu Poems". A large part of the reason why she was able to be taken in and confined to listen to the edict is that she is not shallow in poetry, and appreciation is one of the most basic endowments.
As soon as the poem entered her eyes, Shangguan Wan'er's eyebrows couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the first thought that came to her mind was doubt. Therefore, although there are not many poems by the crown prince Li Xian, she has also appreciated a few, and it is obviously a completely different literary style from the one in front of her.
Of course, this is not inexplicable, the change of circumstances, the flow of mood, can cause a change in the style of writing. And Li Xian's fate is even more ups and downs, the dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty became a deposed and degraded and secluded concubine, and the encounter can be described as a judgment of cloud and mud.
Aside from the change of style, the problem of this poem is still not small, because of the feelings, from the object and the person, you can see that the first half of the article is tiled and slow, plain and gradually affectionate, but when it is transferred to the person, it becomes out of disorder, repeatedly far-fetched, quite a suspicion of spelling rhyme, as for the last sentence please Feng Zeng, it can be said that the intention is taken off, and it becomes a unique topic, if it is erased, it can contribute to the integrity of the poetry.
Of course, if you evaluate this poem from the perspective of pure appreciation, it is actually out of order.
Assuming that what the young Li Shouyi said is true, this poem is indeed written by the prince Li Xian sadly, and for ordinary people, the far-fetched poetry of the filial son's sorrow and shame on himself and then the righteousness of the sages can indeed be classified as a family affair of the heavenly family, and the intention is not only not taken off, but there is a jump, because this is something that can really be done.
Shangguan Wan'er whispered repeatedly, but her thoughts had already diverged far away.
Therefore, the resentment between the crown prince Li Xian and the queen mother's mother and son has been a long-standing story, although she is not qualified to be involved in it, but also as a witness, the messy meaning of the second part of the poem, she can't help but think of the youthful figure, after being frustrated, the collapse and messiness of the state of mind, his hesitation and struggle are still jumping on the paper, after all, he still has to bow his head, begging for mercy and licking the calf.
Covering the paper roll lightly, Shangguan Wan'er let out a sigh. This is a work of love, and the feelings described are obedient in the world, far different from ordinary loving mothers and filial sons.
She had already decided in her heart that this should be made by Li Xian, because no matter how plain the first part is or the messy part of the second part, it is all touching words, far from Li Shouyi, a teenager can read it deeply. If you are looking for someone to ghostwrite, if you can have the level of the previous part, there will never be the affection of the second part.
But even with such a cognition, Shangguan Wan'er still has reservations about whether the young Li Shouyi really wanders in the underworld and goes through cold and summer with his father, because this is too bizarre. Even if there is a psalm as proof, it cannot be ruled out that Li Xian dictated the recitation before his death, leaving it for his children to beg.
However, it doesn't matter what Shangguan Wan'er's attitude is, what matters is what the Queen Mother thinks about it.
No matter how bizarre this matter is, with the testimony of the previous medical officer and the palace maid, coupled with the testimony of the medical doctor of the Imperial Medical Department, and now there is the young Li Shouyi's oral posthumous work of the late prince Li Xian, which has formed a complete context of the matter. As for the mysterious and strange gods of chaos, it is not a realm that mortals can judge clearly.
Therefore, the evidence collection has been carried out at this point, and Shangguan Wan'er can already return to Shangyang Palace to resume her life.
She didn't want to face King Yong'an for a long time, although the young man looked weak and harmless, but it made her feel like her heart was palpitating and dangerous, which was just an indescribable intuition as a woman, but it was enough to make her stay away from the young Li Shouyi.
It's just that when she got up to say goodbye, and when she saw Li Shouyi giving the same gesture as Dr. Shen before, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but move in her heart, and when the female historians didn't pay attention, she whispered to Li Shouyi: "But you have to go before the king's will, and the rest don't need to say much." ”
When Li Tong heard this, he was obviously stunned, he really didn't expect Shangguan Wan'er to take the initiative to remind himself. But before he could respond, Shangguan Wan'er had already hurried out.
After Shangguan Wan'er and her party left, no one else came here. Outside the courtyard is a straight guard, and there are still four palace maids in the courtyard, who should be left to take care of Li Tong's daily life. It seems that before the Queen Mother Wu Zetian made a decision, Li Tong had to live in this gloomy back house of the Five Palaces.
At this moment, the sky had completely darkened, especially this place was covered by the huge shadows of the five halls, which was much darker than the side of it. Li Tong stood under the corridor, looking at the huge outline of the black hole in the main hall in front of him, it is said that Gaozong Li Zhi was often fortunate to be in charge of this hall during his lifetime, probably at that time he did not expect that his children and grandchildren would one day be detained behind the palace and slaughtered by others.
But it has to be said that even if Li Zhi foresaw it, according to his state of being in love with power and riddled with illness, he would prefer to trust his wife and political partner Wu Zetian, who has been in the same boat through thick and thin, all the way, rather than the crown prince Li Xian as the heir.
After all, his wife's authority still comes from him, and his son is the legal heir of the Tang Empire. Not to mention it from afar, how his father Li Shimin ascended to the throne, Li Zhi knew very well in his heart. Therefore, Li Zhi's defense of his son, especially the prince, is actually far greater than that of his wife, his wife is great and becomes the next Empress Lu, if his son makes trouble, he will be the new monarch of the Tang Dynasty!
From this point of view, Li Zhi has to bear a considerable part of the responsibility for the suffering suffered by the Li clan before and after the Wu Zhou Dynasty. But from a colder point of view, even if Wu Zetian's subsequent jump against Tang exceeded Li Zhi's expectations, the subsequent developments actually returned to the track he had preset.
His wife Wu Zetian can be said to have been trained by him, and the public weapon was pushed and shared, and after a little derailment, he still completed the continuation of the Tang Empire. But this slight derailment, how much blood and tears are sad, that is, the specific personnel are self-suffering, and they are not in the emperor's heart at all.
Today's Li Tong has unfortunately become the specific bearer of suffering, so no matter whether he can substitute for the position of the young Li Shouyi now, it is really difficult to have a good impression of the titular grandfather Li Zhi. This dead ghost hurt him, cultivated a beast of power, patted his ass and ran to Qianling to feed the ants, regardless of the huge waves behind him.
"Great, King, please eat......"
A palace maid walked with her head down, standing in a position that was still more than a foot away from Li Tong, and said timidly, the fear on her face could not be concealed at all.
Li Tong couldn't help but be happy when he saw this, sure enough, people's happiness was half based on the pain of others, and it was obvious that this palace maid was very frightened by him, a demon who had come back from the dead, and he didn't dare to come close at all.
He turned around and walked towards the door, and saw that the palace maid had retreated in small steps, and her back had already been against the doorrail, and suddenly she rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue and made a grimace, and the palace maid was suddenly so shocked that she covered her face and screamed. And the other three palace maids who were still working in the room were also shocked when they heard the sound, or rushed into the corner of the room, or got behind the screen.
"I am a human being, not a ghost, a flesh and blood like you, nor an evil spirit who likes to eat blood. If you are still afraid, you do not need to be here, but retreat and rest. ”
Although Li Tong is depressed, he will not have a bad taste enough to frighten these palace maids, he just doesn't like to be watched by people so closely, since these palace maids are also very scared, there is really no need to force each other. But he also understands that if he is driven away directly, he doesn't know what gossip will lead to.
Sure enough, after hearing this, the palace maids were all pardoned, and they didn't care about being rude or not, so they went out of the house, turned to another room in the courtyard, and closed the door.
In the room, a palace lamp and two bright candles were placed in different positions, and the food and drink were sent in by two Yulin sergeants on duty. According to the memory of the young Li Shouyi, this should be an extra meal, in the past, he didn't eat at night, and the meal seemed to be richer than usual, this was probably Shangguan Wan'er's explanation before leaving.
Normal people's thinking, when this happens, must be unintentional eating, but Li Tong can be regarded as a little resigned to fate, and live the present. According to his understanding, the young Li Shouyi died of illness yesterday morning, and his diet must have been so-so, and after Li Tong woke up, he only ate a little food left by the palace people to satisfy his hunger, and he was indeed hungry at this time.
There are many kinds of meals, some of which have been placed on the table by the palace maids, and some are still listed in the cage.
In the middle is a steamed goose, the skin is oily and translucent, and it is still smeared with maltose, I don't know what kind of fairy taste it is. Several Hu cakes are bulging together, baked to the skin and fried flowers, revealing the fragrant mutton filling inside, which should be a higher level of eating Gulouzi than Hu cakes.
Tang people eat naan that is really up and down, "Chao Ye Zai" has Zhang Heng in the Wu Zhou period, boiled to the fourth grade and then added a level, has become a three-grade purple boss, on the road to see the new ripe Hu cake, bought a horse to eat while walking, but was played by the imperial history, so lost the official. The sorrow of foodies, this Hu cake is also very expensive.
Of course, it is also because Zhang Heng's starting point is too low, and Ling Shi was born, that is, he is a subordinate of the county order, which belongs to the outflow background, and he is already discriminated against in the officialdom, and it is more difficult to be promoted.
Therefore, the paper gossip is connected with the living things in front of them, which gives people a very wonderful feeling.
If it weren't for the fact that his new identity was too dangerous and embarrassing, Li Tong would probably enjoy this Tang Wear trip even more. The Tang diet, or court meal, was guaranteed even though it was only a daily meal.
There is also a pot of noodle soup in the main dish, also known as soup cake or glutton. The heroic spirit of the Tang people is also reflected in the application of tableware, a basin, not a bowl, shallow belly, containing shredded chicken soup, the face is green, the entrance is refreshing and strong, it seems to add some condiments of plant juice, it should be cooked and then used to calm the well water, similar to the way to eat cold noodles, and there is indeed another name called cold Tao.
This meal also made Li Tong realize that the current season was in the middle of summer, and he was still wearing a slightly heavy hakama, he didn't feel stuffy before, but after realizing it now, he felt that his clothes had already been soaked with sweat, which shows that from waking up to the present, his spirit has been tense, and he didn't dare to relax at all, and he didn't even feel such an obvious stuffy discomfort!
