Volume 1 The Hatred of the Country, the Hatred of the Family, the Sword of the World, Chapter 64 Jintai Baixian, The King's Intention
King Zhao invited Xiaofeng and Ding Hu into the palace, ordered someone to burn a charcoal fire, prepare wine and food, and want to have a drink with Xiaofeng.
When the wife of King Zhao saw that King Zhao was still restless in the middle of the night, she sent someone to ask King Zhao to sleep peacefully, and the maid came to say: "Mrs. saw that the king was working hard for state affairs, and it was rare to rest. ”
King Zhao said: "You tell your wife, you have something important tonight, and you will rest later." ”
Seeing this, Xiaofeng asked King Zhao to say: "It's late at night, the king will sleep first, if you say goodbye, it's not too late to have time tomorrow." ”
King Zhao said: "Little brother doesn't like Xiaofeng to be called so!" Today, you and my brother see each other, and everyone is casual, so we should be friends in private. The little brother is willing to get drunk with all the brothers today! ”
The lady had no choice but to go back to the lady.
King Zhao ordered Zhu Shen: Take off your armor and come to sit with Xiaofeng Ding Hu and others, and rest today when you are drunk.
Zhu Shen said: "The minister is the king's guard, and he follows the king, how can he remove his armor!" The ministers dare not obey the order, so as not to abolish the righteousness of the monarch and the minister! ”
When King Zhao saw this, he said to Xiaofeng: "Zhu Haoxia was recommended by Xiaofeng at the beginning, and this time I have to ask Xiaofeng to let him remove his armor." ”
Seeing this, Xiao Feng was also in a dilemma, and it was not easy for Zhu Shen to remove his armor for a while, so he said to King Zhao: "Brother Xian is already a king today, how can he be as casual as in the past?" If it is known to the people, where is the majesty of the virtuous king? ”
King Zhao sighed abruptly: "Since the younger brother has returned to the country as the king, everything must be in accordance with the etiquette of the monarch and the ministers, and I really don't hide it from the elder brothers. Only then did the younger brother know the loneliness of the king, and only then did he know why he was called a lonely person. Today, the old man came, I'm afraid there are not many such opportunities, tonight the younger brother is willing to unload the king's affairs, and the old man toasted and drink, why can't you fulfill the wish of the little brother! ”
Xiao Feng saw that King Zhao said sincerely and sincerely, and it was not easy to think about the emperor, so he had compassion in his heart, so he immediately looked at Zhu Shen and said to Zhu Shen: "Since the virtuous brother is so hard-hearted, then Zhu Haojie will follow the order of the virtuous brother." ”
Zhu Shen heard King Zhao's words, and his heart was also full of mixed feelings, seeing Xiaofeng's persuasion, he stopped insisting, turned around and went out of the hall, and ordered the guards to guard outside, take off their clothes and armor, put down their weapons, and sit on the side of the seat.
Less leaning, the people of the kitchen offer wine and food, King Zhao let the set up, set up four seats, and sit down the guests. King Zhao is in the main seat, Xiaofeng is in the guest seat, Ding Hu is in the guest seat, and Zhu Shen is in the last seat.
King Zhao got up, personally poured wine for Xiaofeng Dinghu Zhu Shen, and then raised the wine and said: "Thanks to the love of all brothers, we meet in the palace today, on this cold night, drink a glass of hot wine to drive away the cold." The younger brother first toasts all the brothers. "Anyway, drink it all.
All three of them raised their glasses and drank them all.
After King Zhao finished drinking, he poured a glass of wine, Jingxiaofeng and Ding Hu said: "This cup is the intention of Jingxiaofeng and Ding Zhuangshi to come from thousands of miles to visit the younger brother. With that, he drank the wine.
Xiaofeng and Ding Hu were also grateful to King Zhao and drank the wine in their cups. King Zhao poured another glass of wine and raised his glass to Zhu Shen, Zhu Shen hurriedly stood up, and King Zhao said to Xiaofeng: "If it weren't for Zhu Haoxia's guards, the little brother would have lost his life at the hands of the assassin." How can he return to his kingdom and be king? Zhu Haoxia's life-saving grace, the younger brother is difficult to repay. Today, this cup is hereby toasted to Zhu Haoxia! ”
After drinking it all, Zhu Shen was also moved, crying, choked and couldn't speak, only drank the wine in the cup to express gratitude.
After three rounds of wine, the people of the kitchen entered the hot soup and meat, and King Zhao let the three of them use, without taking into account the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, eating meat and drinking wine in a big bowl, showing the true character of heroism.
So the four of them ate the lord in the palace, which was very comfortable. After a long absence, they were all happy and full of interest in their hearts, and they talked about the past, they all laughed unconsciously, and the courtesy of the monarch and ministers was completely ignored, and King Zhao was drunk and very happy.
After drinking until the third watch, they were all seven or eight points drunk, and Mrs. Zhao asked the maid to come again, but King Zhao just ignored it. Xiaofeng persuaded: "It's already been three shifts at night, and now Brother Xian is not as good as before." And I still obey my wife's orders. ”
There are also people who serve in the palace, who come in to pass on the order of the queen mother: "How can a person who is a king be obscene with wine? Sleepless late at night and unrestrained drinking, you can't help but lose your morality, and it is not a gift of hospitality. ”
When King Zhao saw the Queen Mother's message, he didn't dare to disobey, so he immediately agreed to Xiaofeng and Zhu Shen and prepared to withdraw and sleep peacefully. Only then did I remember that Xiaofeng and Ding Hu had just come from afar, and they had not arranged accommodation yet. King Zhao originally intended to invite Xiaofeng to live in the Golden Terrace Inn, but it was too late today. Zhu Shen knew what he meant, so he said to King Zhao: "Xiaofeng and Ding Zhuangshi came from afar, and it is late at night today, and they will live in Jicheng Pavilion first, and other matters will be arranged tomorrow." ”
King Zhao was already seven or eight points drunk, dizzy, and when he saw Zhu Shen say this, he also followed Zhu Shen's words and asked Zhu Shen to lead Xiaofeng and Ding Hu to live in the middle of Jicheng Hall. Personally sent out of the palace.
Zhu Shen finished arranging Xiaofeng and Ding Hu, and he returned home, and it was almost the fourth shift. His wife Hou was still waiting for Zhu Shen, and when he saw that he had returned so late, he asked Zhu Shen why he had delayed so far, and Zhu Shen said: "Xiaofeng and Ding Hu have come to Jicheng, and the king will set up a banquet to entertain him, and he will accompany his husband to share his brotherly feelings, so here." ”
The next morning, before King Zhao was in the morning, he asked people to go to the pavilion to greet Xiaofeng, and said that the two of them would have a good rest, and King Zhao would invite him into the palace in the evening.
After King Zhao finished his early dynasty, he felt very sleepy, so he went into the palace to take a nap. Guo Kui heard that Feng Xingzi was coming, and drank with King Zhao until the third watch last night, waiting for King Zhao to wake up outside the palace. King Zhao woke up and heard that Guo Kui was waiting outside the palace, so he came out to meet him, Guo Kui said: "Dare to ask the king last night that the guest was popular, why are you waiting for a person?" ”
King Zhao said: "It is the widow who made friends with his righteous brother Xu Xiaofeng when he was in Xinzheng, South Korea, a native of Hanzhong in Chudi, a heroic man in Liangzhou, and a popular man on the rivers and lakes." When the widow was in Korea, he was helped by his brothers. ”
Guo Kui said: "Very good, the king and let the old minister see this popularity, how about it?" ”
King Zhao said: "The widow and righteous brother are the people of the rivers and lakes, and they cannot be yielded, but they are the real heroes of the world." If the national teacher wants to see it, it is difficult to govern the country and secure the country. ”
Guo Kui received the promise, so he asked King Zhao to gather the ministers with the court's courtesy and meet Xiaofeng. King Zhao said: "The widow wants to respect the wind and the son, and wants to let the righteous brother live in the golden platform." A ceremony can be set up on the golden platform on a selected day, so that the national teacher and Xiaofeng can meet. ”
Guo Kui took the promise and retreated.
Yanmen is too guarded
The black clouds crushed the city and wanted to destroy it, and the armor light opened to the sun.
The sound of horns fills the sky with autumn colors, stuffed with swallow fat and night purple.
Half a roll of red flags is in the water, and the frost is heavy and the cold is silent.
Report the king's intention on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king!
"Yanmen Tai Shou Xing" is a poem written by the Tang Dynasty poet Li He using the ancient title of Yuefu to describe the war scene. This poem depicts the tragic and tragic battle scenes with rich and mottled colors, and the bizarre picture accurately represents the scenery of the border fortress and the ever-changing war at a specific time and place. The first sentence depicts the scene and the event, rendering the tense atmosphere and critical situation under the arrival of the soldiers, and showing the majesty of the defenders by daylight.
The second sentence renders the tragic atmosphere of the battlefield and the cruelty of the battle from both auditory and visual aspects; The third sentence describes the scene of the army's night attack and bloody battle; The last sentence quotes an allusion to write the determination of the soldiers to die to serve the country. The whole poetic conception is desolate, the style is tragic, and it has a strong shock and artistic charm.
Yanmen is too guarded" is an old topic of Yuefu. The poem consists of eight lines, the first four of which describe the scene before sunset. The first sentence is both a scene and an event, successfully exaggerating the tense atmosphere and critical situation of the enemy soldiers approaching the city. "Black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it", the word "pressure" vividly reveals the enemy's large number of troops and horses, the fierce attack, the disparity in strength between the two warring sides, and the difficult situation of the defenders. The second sentence writes about the defenders inside the city, in contrast to the enemy troops outside the city, suddenly, the wind and clouds change, and a ray of sunlight shines down from the cracks in the clouds, reflecting on the armor of the defenders of the city, only to see the golden light, dazzling.
At this moment, they are wearing stubbornness and being ready for battle. Here, daylight is used to show the camp and morale of the defenders, and the scene is very strange. It is said that Wang Anshi once criticized this sentence and said: "Fang Heiyun is pressing the city, how can there be a light to the sun?" Yang Shen claimed that he had indeed seen such a scene, accusing Wang Anshi of saying: "The old man Song does not know poetry.
The poet does not directly describe the fierce scene of staggered wheels and hand-to-hand combat, but only makes a rough but highly expressive dot color of the scene on the battlefield after the two sides have collected their troops: the fierce battle is carried out from day to night, and the sunset reflects the battlefield, and the large chunks of bright red blood stains like rouge are condensed on the ground through the night fog to show a patch of purple. This gloomy and solemn atmosphere sets off the tragic scene of the battlefield, suggesting that there are a large number of casualties on both sides of the attack and defense, and the defenders of the city are still in a disadvantageous position, which makes the necessary paving for the rescue of friendly forces written below. The last four sentences describe the activities of the reinforcement troops.
"Half a roll of the red flag is in Yishui", and the meaning of the word "half a roll" is extremely rich. The march in the dark and the drums died down, in order to "take it by surprise and attack it unprepared": "Linyishui" not only indicates the place of the battle, but also implies that the soldiers have a kind of magnificent and fierce pride that "the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return". Then he describes the scene of a bitter battle: as soon as the reinforcements approached the enemy's stronghold, they beat the drums and cheered into battle. Helplessly, the night was cold and frosty, and even the war drums could not be beaten.
In the face of many difficulties, the soldiers were not discouraged. "Repay the king's will on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king." The golden platform was built by King Yanzhao in the southeast of Yishui during the Warring States period, and legend has it that he put a large amount of gold on the platform, saying that he did not hesitate to attract the corporal of the world with heavy money. The poet quoted this story and wrote about the determination of the soldiers to serve the imperial court.
However, this colorful and bizarre picture accurately represents the scenery of the border fortress and the rapidly changing war situation at a specific time and place, and it seems very appropriate.
