Chapter 113: There Are Old People
"Zhang Cang, the Marquis of Beiping, has been diligent all his life, and he has made great contributions to the court.
However, although Zhang Cang has been the prime minister of the Wen Dynasty for 12 years, he has never had a deep friendship with Liu Qike............
Looking at the suspicious looks of these courtiers, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, just smiled.
A few months ago, the rebellion of Wu and Chu had just been pacified, and Liu Wei, the king of Wu, and Liu Wu, the king of Chu, committed suicide, but the three kings of Jiaoxi, Zichuan, and Jinan also died in an unknown manner in a few days, and they thought that this matter would be over.
But not long ago, Liu Qi heard that some people were talking about the lack of virtue of the Son of Heaven, and he could not tolerate the princes and kings who were also surnamed Liu.
The angry son of heaven Liu Qi was thunderous on the spot......
But the Han family is not the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and whoever dares to say the emperor's fault will come to a literary prison and put him in prison to kill him.
If Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, dares to do this, he will shake his position as the Son of Heaven.
In this way, I had to take this opportunity to reward the late Zhang Cang, and let the world know that the Son of Heaven will not hesitate to reward those who have contributed to the court, even those who are far away from the court.
I am not a man of immorality!
Then Liu Qi said: "Zhang Cang is a virtuous minister of my Han Dynasty, and I want to choose a courtier to come to his house to mourn, and the ministers think it is appropriate."
Hearing this, none of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty said anything, who would be willing to do such a thankless task.
Only Jia Yi immediately got up and walked to the palace, and said with a salute: "Your Majesty, Zhang Cang is the teacher's teacher, and the minister once heard a saying: Respect the teacher, the minister is willing to go to Hedong to offer condolences, and I hope Your Majesty will grant permission!" ”。
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, smiled: "What Dangyanghou said is very good, but only letting Dangyanghou go to it is a little inappropriate, why don't I choose someone to go with him."
Jia Yi is usually very low-key in the court, but no one dares to underestimate the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and Jia Yi is in an important position in Jiuqing, and he is a new candidate.
It made the courtiers think: "Is it different for Your Majesty to go in person?"
However, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, coughed twice, and then said: "Liu Rong, are you willing to go with Dangyang Hou on my behalf!" ”。
Liu Rong, who was standing on the side, never thought that this would happen to him.
Liu Rong naturally didn't know what his father meant, but could he still say what his father had said?
Immediately, Liu Rong said: "The son obeys the order!" ”。
Seeing this, Liu Rong naturally stepped forward to support Jia Yi and helped him down the steps in front of the Xuanshu Palace......
Since childhood, Liu Rong has grown up under the guidance of Jia Yi, although Liu Rong is familiar with the trend of history, and knows what many people do not know.
However, Liu Rongneng is inseparable from Jia Yizhi's teachings. And over the years, he has become more and more respectful of Jia Yi.
Seeing that the teacher was so sad, Liu Rong bowed to Jia Yi and said: "The deceased is gone, please don't be too sad, the Marquis of Beiping is a person who has lived to be more than 100 years old, and there are a few people who can live to be 100 years old throughout the ages."
And if the Marquis of Beiping can have a disciple who is such a talented person as a teacher, he will definitely be pleased to have a spirit in the sky."
Liu Rong's sentence of worldly talent made Jia Yi, who was worried, squeezed out a wry smile slightly: "Your Highness deserves such appreciation."
Watching Jia Yi go away in the carriage, Liu Rong sighed even more, am I easy, in order to comfort the teacher, even the content of Du Fu's poems began to be stolen......
However, when Liu Rong turned to leave, he said again: "No, Du Fu will not be born until nearly a thousand years later, since I said this first, then this is not plagiarism!" ”。
However, as soon as Liu Rong arrived at the dormitory, before his buttocks were hot, the person sent by Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, arrived: "Your Highness, Your Majesty ordered you to go to the Qilin Palace......
Hearing this, Liu Rong naturally knew that his father still had something to ask before leaving.
As soon as he entered the Qilin Hall with this attendant, he saw his father sitting alone in the hall, and he was waiting for Liu Rong to arrive.
Liu Rong saluted and said, "My son visits his father."
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, just said indifferently: "Sit."
After his words were finished, a maid from the palace on the side brought Liu Rong a seat.
"My father is looking for his sons, but is there something related to Hedong?"
Liu Qi smiled: "My son is smart, but I have heard a lot of reports about Hedong recently, and it is only one of them that you go to Hedong to mourn Zhang Cang, and the other is to check the truth of Hedong."
Dad only said that there was something related to Hedong, but he didn't say what it was, obviously he wanted Liu Rong to go to Hedong to find out, of course Liu Rong wouldn't be stupid to ask what was going on.
Fixed, just said: "No! ”。
Then Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said: "On this trip, I have ordered the Tun cavalry captain to allocate 500 cavalry to accompany you to ensure your safety."
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said so, but it made Liu Rong excited, five hundred cavalry, it was enough to fight a small-scale battle.
Seeing Liu Rong so excited, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, remembered the ridiculous things he had done when he was young, and immediately said: "I sent soldiers to protect you, and you must not do anything wrong in Hedong."
After speaking, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, taught Liu Rong earnestly, "I will go to Hedong to be the Marquis of Yang, and if you don't decide to ask him before making a decision, you must not be rash!"
You must not rely on the status of the prince to suppress local officials, let alone interfere in local government affairs at will."
"No", after speaking, Liu Rong saluted and left.
If he wants to leave the palace and go to the county land, Liu Rong naturally wants to report to the Queen Mother Dou Yi's room.
Although Empress Dowager Dou prefers her youngest son Liu Wu, Liu Rong is also her own grandson, so naturally she will not completely ignore it.
I heard that Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, sent Liu Rong to Hedong to mourn Zhang Cang, and the Empress Dowager Dou said: "Zhang Cang was a courtier who fought the world with Emperor Gao, and he was also a prime minister for more than ten years when he was the first emperor, and he can be regarded as a person with high achievements.
The Son of Heaven has ordered you to go to mourn, and he also takes a fancy to you, and he is determined to handle this matter well."
"No, the grandson obeys".
When Liu Rong was about to retire, he heard the Empress Dowager Dou say again: "If you go to Hedong, you must not bring a woman from outside the palace back."
Hearing this, Liu Rong almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, it seems that it must be that his father often did these things back then, and he stimulated his grandmother lightly............
"No, my grandson remembers, and my grandson will be clean."
Seeing that Liu Rong agreed, Empress Dowager Dou nodded, and Liu Rong retreated.
Liu Rong naturally wanted to go to his mother Li Ji and report to him, but Li Ji was more and more disgusted with Liu Rong at this time, and when she heard that Liu Rong was coming, she snorted coldly and turned Liu Rong away.
Liu Rong, who touched a gray nose, has no way to do anything about this mother, the Han family has always ruled the world with filial piety, if someone has filial piety, even if he has talent and learning, Zhong will have a life in this life, and it will be difficult to be elected as an official one day.
As a prince, this is even more so, if Liu Rong is caught with pigtails one day and says that Liu Rong is not filial to Li Ji, even if his father Liu Qi wants to make Liu Rong the prince, this minister of the Manchu Dynasty, the heroes and the princes and kings of various places will never agree.
In this way, Liu Rong had to kneel alone in front of Li Ji's bedroom, and after more than half an hour, Liu Rong got up and left.
When he stood up, Liu Rong's legs and two legs were numb, and he almost couldn't walk, so he returned to the dormitory with the support of two attendants.
……………………………………………………………………
In the early morning of the next day, when Liu Rong was ordering Wang Sheng to pack his bags to take out of the palace in the palace, he heard a report from the attendant, "Your Highness, Marquis Wei invites you to his home today."
After speaking, he took out the worship sticker and presented it to Liu Rong, took the worship sticker and took a look, and sure enough, Dou Ying wanted to invite Liu Rong to his home.
put down the worship sticker in his hand and said secretly: How could Dou Ying invite me to his home at this time......
After being puzzled, Liu Rong still decided to go, because Liu Rong knew that Dou Ying would never harm him............
When it came to Shen, Liu Rong took a carriage and went out of the palace to Dou Ying's house.
After ordering the attendant to knock on the door, but after a while, Dou Ying walked out of the house.
He smiled, and said: "The minister has seen His Highness, Your Highness, please."
In this way, without waiting for Liu Rong to speak, Dou Ying pulled Liu Rong to his mansion, and as soon as he entered the main hall, the two of them sat down.
Liu Rong asked, "I don't know what the king and grandson are looking for me today?" ”。
"The minister invited His Highness to come here today, because he wanted to ask His Highness for help."
Liu Rong also said straight to the point: "What's the matter? ”。
"His Royal Highness is going to Hedong to mourn for the Marquis of Beiping, and there are three people in the courtier's mansion who have an old relationship with the Marquis of Beiping, and they also want to go to Hedong to mourn.
However, these three people are old, and the minister is busy with government affairs in Chang'an, and he can't get out, so he wants to ask His Royal Highness, can he take these three people with him."
Liu Rong was also confused by Dou Ying's words, how could there be someone in Dou Ying's mansion who had an old ............ with Zhang Cang
Seeing Liu Rong's puzzled face, Dou Ying summoned the servants on the side and ordered him to invite the three to the main hall.
After a while, I saw three white-haired old men walking slowly into the main hall, and Dou Ying was even more busy getting up to support the three of them, making them kneel and sit in the seat.
As soon as he turned around, Dou Ying said to Liu Rong: "Your Highness, this is the old one with Zhang Cang."
Then Dou Ying pointed to the eldest of them and said: "This is the teacher of the minister, Qi Di Shen Gong, and the other two are Bai Sheng and Du Sheng."
How could Liu Rong not know the name of Shen Gong, looking at the three people in front of him, Liu Rong suddenly remembered.
Xunzi once accepted apprentices in Lanling to teach and preached the essence of the "Five Classics: Poetry, Books, Rituals, Music, Spring and Autumn", among which the "Poems" were passed on to his disciples Mao Heng and Fuchubo. The Book was passed on to his disciples Han Fei and Li Si, and the Book of Rites was passed on to Lu Jia.
passed "Music" to Gongsun Nizi, and passed "Spring and Autumn" to his disciple Zhang Cang......
Zhang Cang is a disciple of Xunzi, and Shen Gong, Bai Sheng, and Dusheng are the disciples of Fuqiubo, so Zhang Cang is the uncle of these three people, so he is naturally an old person.
But Liu Rong thought again, after such calculations, Dou Ying and himself can be regarded as Xunzizhi's third-generation disciples, but Dou Ying is the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dou and his father's cousin, why did he suddenly become a senior brother with himself......
