Chapter 463 Epitaph

Since Zhao Shu was seriously ill, Su Xiaomei broke off her daily three points and one line, except for teaching, she stayed in Cishou Palace and did not take a step.

It's not goldfish, it's flowers and plants.

A shallow basin of water with an ordinary piece of sand on top of it, but the stone was covered with some moss and coiled with the green roots of the calamus.

The fibrous roots that grow from the old roots are very dense and stick to the stones tightly.

But the leaves are small and short, green and lush, and the whole small pot comes alive at once, elegant and pleasant.

Su Xiaomei held a long bamboo skewer and a small pair of scissors, removing the tiny yellow leaves of the iris little by little.

The Queen Mother was admiring it on the side, and she didn't know whether to look at people or calamus, "This little thing is really spiritual, not a holiday, not an inch of land, hard-cold, indifferent, and any good words have been installed on it." ”

Su Xiaomei said, "Mr. Big is an expert in planting this, and there is a pot in the yarn line, the roots are several points long, and the leaves are not full of inches. Mr. Big named it 'Ji Zhongsan', which is the top grade of the study's clear offering. ”

Ji Zhongsan is Ji Kang, who has been a doctor in Zhongsan and one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "You Su family, you live a really elegant life." A piece of rock, a weed, can be played with by you like this. ”

Su Xiaomei said with a smile, "Show the children of the clan what is called the wild meaning of mountains and forests, but the so-called wild meaning of mountains and forests, you have to carve and figure it out with your heart before you can get it." ”

"Mr. Big's method of looking for calamus is to search among the mountains and streams, and come back from the wild to clear the offerings. To be full of fun, with the right combination of natural boutiques, but also a thousand. ”

The Queen Mother smiled, "Then you have to have some spare time, aren't you?" ”

Su Xiaomei said, "My brother said, isn't this thing the same as growing vegetables?" So let's find the dragon root, find the right stone, and after the perfect match, press it on the stone, spread the pineapple to protect the roots, wrap it with hemp rope and fix it, and put it into the mountain canal in Kelongli. ”

"Half a year later, the roots are epiphytic and firm, remove the hemp rope and pineapple, let it grow naturally, inspect and prune it on weekdays, and get all the high-quality products, Mr. Dasu was so angry that he scolded him that this is in captivity for raising a gentleman in the mountains and forests, wholesale hermit Gaoshi. I insisted on naming our best piece as 'Nguyen Infantry'. ”

Ruan infantry is Ruan, who has been an infantry captain and is also one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.

However, Su Shi took the homonym "soft infantry" here, which was essentially satirizing Su You's cooking of calamus according to the method of the Great Song Dynasty to regulate the Xiang army.

The queen mother is also very happy, and the ridicule between the Su family is so elegant, "Now this thing has become a trend, and the proud stone iris of Bianjing City is worth a lot, and your brother is rich again." ”

Su Xiaomei smiled: "Brother, he...... I don't seem to have worried about money in my life, and it's a very sought-after thing at my fingertips. This calamus is in Shuzhong, the wild goose swings, it is just ordinary, but because of the unsuitable climate, it is difficult to feed in Bianjing City, but it is more expensive. ”

After speaking, he put down the bamboo stick, "Okay, when the children see it tomorrow, this Ruan infantry will be left in the palace for the mother to reward." ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "The attached stone dining spring is full of vitality; Brocade clothes and jade food, but ...... Alas, I heard that the official family's illness is getting worse and worse, and yesterday I was speechless, and I used paper and pen to punish the affairs......"

In December, the emperor's illness increased dramatically, and he was no longer able to come to the court.

After the official work on this day, Wen Yanbo was worried and came to the center.

Han Qi asked, "Kuanfu, is there something wrong?" ”

Wen Yanbo said to Han Qi, "Xianggong, it's time to decide on a big matter." ”

Han Qi asked, "Do you know which bachelor is on duty today?" ”

Wen Yanbo said, "That's what it means, today is Zhang Andao's announcement." ”

Zhang Fangping was also promoted to Hanlin Chengzhi half a year ago because of the clear text and the article was very in line with Zhao Shu's intentions.

Han Qi stood up, "Then let's go, let's greet each other." ”

The two came to the palace, and after greeting each other, Han Qi said slowly, "Your Majesty has not looked at the court for a long time, and China and foreign countries are worried. It is advisable to appoint the crown prince as soon as possible to reassure the people. ”

Zhao Shu looked at Wen Yanbo, and Han Qi said, "This is also the meaning of Wen Gong." ”

Wen Yanbo also nodded.

Zhao Shu was unable to speak now, seeing that both of them had the same meaning, he only closed his eyes, and after a long while, he nodded slightly.

Han Qi continued: "I still bother Your Majesty to personally command. ”

Zhao Shu raised his hand, and the waiter hurriedly handed over the pen and paper.

Zhao Shu reopened his eyes and wrote with difficulty on the paper, "Li-king-for-emperor-prince." ”

Han Qi watched from the side and added, "King Biying, please ask the Holy Bow to write more pro-book." ”

The emperor also criticized the "Ying-Wang-顼." ”

The last three words seemed to exhaust all Zhao Shu's strength, and as soon as his hand was loosened, the red pen fell to the ground, staining the carpet of felt in Xingong in Weizhou with ink.

Han Qi and Wen Yanbo both breathed a sigh of relief, and Han Qi continued to give his hand, "Your Majesty, then, that is, begging tonight, Xuan Bachelor to reduce numbness?" ”

This time Zhao Shu paused for a longer time, and finally nodded again, but tears came out.

Han Qi went out, summoned the chamberlain Gao Jujian, showed him the note written by Zhao Shu, and asked him to announce that the Hanlin scholar who was in charge of the drafting that day came in.

After a while, Zhang Fangping hurried to the room, and saw that the atmosphere in the room was heavy, only Han Qi, Wen Yanbo and Zhao Shu immediately understood what was going on.

Han Qi nodded slightly, "Your Majesty has agreed that King Liying will be the crown prince, and I also ask the bachelor to draft it." ”

Zhang Fangping arched his hand: "I still need to confirm what Your Majesty means." Your Majesty? ”

Zhao Shu had tears on his face, but he still nodded slightly.

Zhang Fangping didn't say a word more, bowed down and said, "The minister's order." This is the end of the straw system. ”

The three of them came out of the hall, but they heard "woo...... Woo ......".

Wen Yanbo sighed: "Did you see Your Majesty's look just now?" At this point in life, even father and son cannot be motionless. ”

Han Qi also sighed, "State affairs should be like this, but what can I do?" ”

In December, the Emperor gave amnesty, and gave the civil and military attaché the son of the father and the latter a turn.

Yi Si, Han Qi announced the imperial edict, the crown prince on the 19th day of the first month of the year, the Hanlin bachelor accepted Zhang Fangping as the ceremonial envoy, the Hanlin bachelor Wang Qi wrote the book, Qian Mingyi book, and the knowledge system Song Min asked for the book treasure.

Su You went back to Meishan at the end of the year to visit Su Shi and Su Zhe in the filial piety.

In the Song Dynasty, the scholars were still buried thinly, and the tomb was an earthen pit and bricks. The funeral is not abundant, that is, the clothes of life, and the Ming utensils are burned with paper.

In history, Su Xun was buried in October next year, and when the Su Shi brothers returned to Meishan, they were empty-handed, and spent another year reorganizing their family and raising funds so that their parents could be buried in peace.

Of course, the Su family doesn't need it now, Su You has already arranged everything, but Longli is not as poor as history.

……

There is a Liuxi Mountain behind Longli, and there is an old man's well on the mountain, which is the location of the tomb that Su Xun surveyed by himself in his early years.

The place is quiet, there are green mountains behind, there is a stream in front, and the old Weng Well is fifty steps away from the tomb of the Su family.

A thatched hut was built next to the well, where the brothers wore filial piety clothes and kept filial piety for their parents.

Not far away, there is also a tomb, which is the tomb of Su Shi's wife Wang Fu.

The brothers don't have any manners now, Su Shi saw Su You coming, and he grinned and wanted to cry "Mingrun ......"

Su Zhe can also enforce etiquette, "Uncle Xiao, when my brother is not in Meishan, thank you for your operation." ”

Su You also sighed, "Family, that's it, my sister-in-law treats me like a son, no, it's better for me than for you, I just hate not to be like you, mourn for three years, and talk about your heart." ”

"As for those things outside my body, how can they be worth mentioning compared to the kindness of my brother and sister-in-law to me?"

Turning his head to look at the epitaph in front of Su Xun's tomb, Ouyang Xiu's handwriting.

“…… Meishan is thousands of miles away in the southwest, and one day the father and son are faintly famous in Beijing, and Su's articles are good at the world.

Jun's writing is magnificent, and readers are terrified to want to see him. Seeing it and being warm seems to be indescribable.

And then, from time to time, out of all of it, the more it knocks, the more infinite it becomes.

The longer you live with you, the more lovely it becomes.

Alack! It can be described as a pure and honest gentleman.

…… Jun was born in a distant place and learned and became a late bloomer, and often sighed, "Those who know me are only my father and Ouyang Gongye." 'But who should be remembered?' ”

It stopped abruptly, but it has a long charm, and it is worthy of everyone's giants.
