Chapter 43: The Fox with the Lord
Li Miaomiao, a native of Yazhou in the South China Sea, is the son of Yin, the former Yazhou Governor.
He has been smart since childhood, four literate, six years old to write poems, ten years old to read the scriptures, twelve years old with a comment on the fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty "Woe Zhou Shuo" fame, by the then saint that is An Chengyan's grandfather appreciated, specially recruited into the country.
Li Miaomiao's father knew that his son only knew how to read, and many articles were just on paper and not close to life, so he asked a friend to take him north, hoping that he would see and hear something on the way. I never wanted to go to the bank of the Mejiang River in the rainy season, the river rose sharply, and when crossing the river, the friend accidentally fell into the water and died, Li Miaomiao could only go to the imperial capital alone, and met a cloud wanderer halfway.
Seeing that his mind was simple and he had the wisdom of cultivation, if he entered Beijing, it would be a pity that his exquisite and clear heart would be polluted by power, so he wanted to accept him as a disciple and help him practice. But Li Miaomiao wanted to go to Beijing to enroll in Guoziyuan, and the Taoist took pity on her young age, so she escorted her into Beijing.
In order to protect Li Miaomiao's pure soul from being stained by red dust, he took him through the mountains and wilderness unusually, and walked all over the famous mountains and rivers from the Meijiang River to the imperial capital, but the mountain roads were rugged, the waterways were circuitous, and there were a lot of unjust roads, and it was the early winter season to the imperial capital.
From the mountains and forests to the market, it is like a mountain village man entering the world of flowers, for a teenager, it is natural that the flowers are gradually charming, and Li Miaomiao has the heart to be a master, that person has no intention of accepting apprentices, and on a snowy morning, he left gloomily.
The young Li Miaomiao didn't know what he missed at that time, he saw the snow for the first time after living in Yazhou for many years, and the scene of thousands of miles of ice and snow drifting was as rare as a barking dog in Shu for him, he rolled in the snow for eighteen times like a fool, and made a decision: to gain fame and settle in the imperial capital.
With his intellect, he soon became the most outstanding student of Guoziyuan.
Soon after the emperor ascended the throne, he heard that Li Miaomiao was talented, and he was specially approved to participate in the imperial examination, and he also lived up to expectations and won the first place in the examination.
He performed well in the palace test, and he was supposed to be the champion, but because of his handsome appearance, he was named Tanhualang by the emperor, and he was the only eighteen-year-old Tanhualang in the history of Jinglang.
But Li Miaomiao didn't feel glorious, this was the first time in his life that he was frustrated.
Certainly not the last.
Li Miaomiao, who was a flower explorer in high school, was supposed to enter the court as an official, but when she was riding a horse in red, she was taken by Princess Wenxin, the second sister of the first emperor, and insisted on being recruited as a concubine.
There is an unwritten rule in the court, if you marry a princess, you will have nothing to do with the marquis, and at most you will be given an idle job to dance and write.
Li Miaomiao is proud, her ambition is unpaid, and Princess Wenxin is five years older than him, he can't look down on it, but the first emperor ascended the throne, Princess Wenxin made some efforts, and the holy decree was given, how could you get him or not?
Therefore, Li Miaomiao's career has not yet begun, and it has already reached the end at a glance.
As expected, the upright and kind Li Miaomiao is difficult to adapt to officialdom, unwilling to go along with others, and is often worn in small shoes openly and secretly.
Finally one day, Li Miaomiao, who had been in and out of officialdom for many years, realized that he was not the material to be an official, resigned and went home, and devoted himself to reading the sage book.
It is said that if God closes the door for you, he will definitely leave a window for you.
Li Miaomiao often made some annotations when reading the sage classics, and his old friend, Wang Wendao, who was an official in the court, read these annotations before he felt that his greatness had been submerged for a long time, and invited him to give lectures in the Guoziyuan, which was highly respected by all students.
After the year of no confusion, Li Miaomiao finally became famous and became a master of Chinese studies.
People say that they can only understand after the experience, Li Miaomiao felt that although he was familiar with the truth of life, he still couldn't live this life to the fullest.
Li Miaomiao, a master of Chinese culture, often thinks of the Taoist who wanted to accept him as an apprentice when he was young, thinks of those days of eating and sleeping in the open, and thinks of the heroic spirit in his heart when he stands on the top of the mountain overlooking the rolling sea of clouds, and he thinks that if he promised the Taoist priest at that time, life may be a different situation.
A longing arose in his heart, a yearning for freedom.
However, he knew that he could not break through the cage, he had already taken root in the imperial capital, had a wife and children, like a bird with severed wings, he could only look up at the blue sky and let out a mournful cry.
His sorrow flowed through the tip of his pen.
During the day, he is Li Miaomiao, a master of Chinese culture respected by the world, and at night, he incarnates into a wave of smoke and waves, dancing wildly, a master of the world who does not eat the fireworks of the world, a chivalrous warrior who walks the world with a sword, and a swordsman who is happy to take revenge...... A book of words about the rivers and lakes was born, and it was unexpectedly welcomed by the world.
However, this kind of illusory dream is also a kind of luxury, as a royal family member, and a master of Chinese studies, this kind of thing is simply embarrassing, the eldest princess found out that there was a big fuss, Li Miaomiao could only burn all the manuscripts, and "The Way of Chivalry" became the pen of Yanbo Muzi.
I heard that Li Miaomiao cried when she burned those manuscripts, Princess Wenxin didn't understand, and her grandson also laughed at him for being a lot old and crying.
Only he knows that what he burned was not a notebook, but compensation for his youthful frivolity.
It was the funeral held by Li Miaomiao, who knew the destiny of heaven, for a teenager's dream.
And this dream, because of the words of the daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan, was revived, and like a spark of stars, it burned more and more, forming a trend of burning the prairie fire.
Also ignited was the dream of the Master King.
He had long heard that You Zimo's grandfather, that is, his childhood friend You Lang had mentioned to him the vast scenery of Northern Xinjiang, and he was extremely yearning for the iron horse Jin Gexue full of bows and knives, but it was a pity that as the son of a big family in Beijing, he fought for the glory of the family all his life and never went out of the imperial capital.
He felt that compared to Li Miaomiao, he was much more pitiful.
The two hit it off, packed up when they went home, and agreed to meet at the city gate three days later.
As a result, both of them missed their appointments.
The prince is better, his wife is immortal, and the two concubines dare not disobey him, but it will take some time for the affairs of the clan to be handed over to the descendants of the descendants, and he will have to wait for the Holy Lord to approve his resignation.
In such a comparison, Master Li Miaomiao is slightly miserable.
Princess Wenxin refused to let him go, and led the family to kneel in front of him and cry, and his little grandson, who was less than six years old, did not know why, hugged his thighs and howled: "Grandfather, you died so miserably......"
Li Miaomiao sat in the study all night without saying a word, and went to Guoziyuan to give a lecture in the morning with two dark circles under her eyes.
Princess Wenxin thought that he had given up, but she didn't know that once the silence of the honest man broke out, it would be out of control.
Li Miaomiao, a master of Chinese culture, thought about it all night and held back a big move.
The next day, Li Miaomiao did not talk about Chinese studies, but only calmly told the life of a teenager, which was the collision of reality and dreams, and it was a man's uncompromising stubbornness towards fate.
But when he was about to say: "Someone told the old man that life is not only about the immediate future, but also about poetry and distance." Ladies and gentlemen, is anyone willing to go with the old man? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.
Most of the students of Guoziyuan came to the imperial capital thousands of miles to seek fame, how could they sacrifice their good future to accompany an old man in the pursuit of Shilaozi poetry and the distance? There were very few responders, all of whom were students from the Heavenly Pavilion who studied the astronomical calendar and the art of Qimen Dunjia.
Li Miaomiao was not disappointed, because in addition to the students of Guoziyuan, there were also many courtiers on vacation who went to listen to the lecture, those courtiers have been immersed in officialdom for many years, and they have long been tired of endless struggles.
So the next day, a third of the civil servants wrote to the saints, allowing them to find their childhood dreams.
Shengshang thought it was funny, wasn't their childhood dream to be out of the cabinet with the title of the gold list? All dismissed.
The saint underestimated the brains of the civil officials, and did not approve it? Then all of them will return to their hometowns!
The saint did not take them seriously, but the corrupt officials and corrupt officials were ruled by a shortage of people in the court, and the new courtiers were uneven, and there was still a place for them to be used for the time being, so he issued a holy decree to the mansions of the lords, and all the ladies who persuaded their husbands to return and obediently went to the court were given the title of edict.
The adults were then pulled by the ears and went to court, and this dynasty also became the dynasty with the most daughters in the history of Jing.
Later, it was revoked for various reasons, which is a later story.
If you can't realize your own wishes, it's easy to pin your hopes on others.
The adults also wrote to the saints, asking them to grace Li Miaomiao, a master of quasi-Chinese studies, to go out of Beijing and fulfill their dreams when they were young.
Shengshang Longen personally selected ten Yulin soldiers with strong martial arts, escorted Li Miaomiao and seven students to the north, accompanied by Wang Wendao and Master Ruozhi.
Princess Wenxin didn't expect Li Miaomiao to eat the scales so hard-heartedly, she didn't even look back at her neck, but unfortunately the knife didn't open, only leaving a red mark on her neck.
Princess Wenxin was heartbroken, and hurriedly went into the palace to find the Queen Mother and the Holy Lord to cry before the red seal disappeared, bluntly saying that Li Miaomiao was not a person, thinking that if it wasn't for her, how would he have retreated from the intriguing court, and how could he have his current status? Now that he is famous, he wants to get rid of her, he is simply ungrateful and ungrateful, and what else do you say "poetry and distance", they are all people buried in the loess to their necks, what poetry and distance do you want? !
In addition, the little hoof who said what poetry and the distance did not let her know who it was, and he actually hit the idea on her eldest princess man, and she was probably tired of it.
The saint also felt that it was novel, there was such a strange person in the Guozi Garden, and one sentence disturbed the entire court, so he called An Chengyan, the fifth prince who had been messing around in the Guozi Garden, to question.
Na An Chengyan sold his fiancée without hesitation: "Aunt and Grandma Qi, this matter was done by You Zimo, the daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan. The tone is proud and proud.
When the saint heard this, he choked on the tea, and felt a kind of pain screaming and lifting a stone to hit his own feet.
Princess Wenxin was furious: "At the beginning, the palace couldn't do it with the first emperor's road, and let the woman know how to read and interpret words, and then she was still a fox?" Let's see if this palace can't kill her! ”
The corner of the Queen Mother's eyes twitched, and she turned the Buddhist beads in her hand, revealing a compassionate smile: "This You Zimo can't move, her father is still fighting on the front line, don't mess up the army's heart." ”
An Chengyan echoed: "Grandma Huang, the fourth lady is now the fiancée of her grandson, and she is a fox with a master. ”
The saint took a sip of tea and punished him for half a year.
