Chapter 1000: Warm Tang (Medium)!
Inside the Temple of Manna.
Li Er and his wife both stared at Li Zexuan eagerly, because Li Zexuan had just said a problem that they were both very concerned about, that is, the problem that the poor people would be frozen in winter.
In fact, all the dynasties before the Tang Dynasty, no matter which dynasty, many people will freeze to death every year! In the era when cotton was not grown on a large scale, the price to pay for people to dress warmly was too high!
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to set up a public welfare organization specifically to help the poor people!"
Li Zexuan arched his hand and said the thoughts he had been brewing in his heart these days.
"Nonprofits? Yong'an Hou, what is public welfare? ”
Empress Eldest Sun was puzzled when she heard this.
Li Er also looked at Li Zexuan with a curious expression, and said in his heart, why does this kid often "pop" out of his mouth with some new words? Could it be that this was all he had learned from that dream?
"Hui Niangniang, the so-called public welfare, is about the well-being and interests of all the people of the Tang Dynasty, the minister set up this public welfare organization, mainly to call on the rich people to donate money, and then the minister will use the money to help the poor. At that time, every time he received a donation of the same amount of money, the minister would donate four coal stoves and 200 pieces of honeycomb coal, which were given to four poor families! The minister's workshop can not make a penny, and the right is to do something good for the people of the Tang Dynasty! ”
Li Er looked shocked and said, "This is for no reason, how can you suddenly be so kind?" ”
Li Zexuan sighed, in order to make Lao Li believe him, he could only pretend to sigh deeply and said:
"Your Majesty, many people are very poor! The minister saw the heartache! I remember that the minister read a poem two days ago, and I was deeply touched, I wonder if His Majesty and Niangniang are willing to listen to it? ”
Li Er was even more suspicious, "Poetry? What poem? Let's hear it! ”
Empress Eldest Sun's face also showed an expression of interest.
Li Zexuan saw that the time had come, so he stopped selling Guanzi, and said slowly: "This poem is said to be written by a village scholar outside the city, the old gentleman died suddenly two months ago, leaving this posthumous work, which was accidentally seen by the minister, a dignified seven-foot man, and couldn't help but want to cry after reading it. ”
"Let's get to the point~!"
Li Zexuan began to make up a nihilistic but reasonable protagonist for the story, but Li Er seemed a little impatient, he had a black face and no good air.
Li Zexuan hurriedly cut to the point, and read in a deep voice:
"Ahem! The poem reads: "The August autumn wind roars angrily, rolling up the triple thatch on my house." Mao Fei crosses the river and sprinkles the suburbs...... openly hugged the grass into the bamboo, his lips were dry, and he sighed when he came back...... The cloth has been cold as iron for many years, and Jiao'er is cracked in the tread.......... Since the mourning chaos and less sleep, the long night is wet! There are tens of millions of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy! The wind and rain do not move, and it is as safe as a mountain. Alack! When I suddenly saw this house in front of me, it was enough for me to freeze to death!! ””
A song by Du Fu "The Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind", which was also a must-have famous article in middle school Chinese that year, was recited affectionately by Li Zexuan in this scene. An embarrassing and miserable picture of the house leaking in the autumn night, the wind and rain, the cloth like iron, the delicate lying down, the long night wet, and the inability to sleep suddenly appeared in the minds of Li Er and the eldest grandson queen!
But the poems of the dignified poets will not be so simple, showing that their lives are miserable is only the surface, and the deep meaning is in the second half, the last few lines of the poem have changed the style of painting, and the image of a rickety old man who is in a difficult situation for Li Er and the eldest grandson queen has reappeared! The stark contrast between the front and back makes this image particularly distinct, and it simply pierces the depths of people's souls!
Empress Eldest Sun covered her mouth, her eyes were a little red, and she only heard her muttering in a low voice: "The cloth has been as cold as iron for many years, and Jiao'er is cracked in the middle of the down..... There are tens of millions of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy! Yong'an Hou, you just said that the old gentleman who wrote this poem has passed away? ”
Li Zexuan bowed down and said: "According to the news obtained by the minister, the old gentleman is indeed no longer alive, and it seems that he has frozen to death!" ”
(This guy is secretly muttering in his heart: Du Da Shisheng, don't blame the younger generation for stealing your poems, Ben Hou is also to realize your dream of "sheltering the world's poor and happy"!) )
"Huh~?"
The eldest grandson queen, who has always been graceful and strong, virtuous and generous, rarely showed her weak side at this moment, only to see her sad face, her face was a little pale, "The old gentleman is poor, but he is still worried about the country and the people, such a character actually froze to death at home, it is really the misfortune of the Tang Dynasty!" ”
Li Er didn't speak all the time, but his face was not very good-looking, after listening to the poem that Li Zexuan recited, he first felt a bit like a faint king, otherwise how could someone under his rule be full of wealth, but he didn't meet talents, and finally froze to death at home in poverty~?
However, he quickly calmed down, and felt that there were many doubts in it, and the biggest one was that according to Li Zexuan's range of activities in the past three months, it could be judged that the old gentleman in his mouth was in a certain Zhuangzi near Chang'an City. But since that Zhuangzi is very close to Chang'an, if there is really an old gentleman with such a talent in Zhuangzi, how can there be no rumors in Chang'an City?
As long as there is a little wind and grass, his hundred horsemen will definitely be able to find out!
Therefore, when it came to the end, Li Er was already seventy or eighty percent sure that the old gentleman Li Zexuan said at the beginning was completely nonsense!
But even if you know it in your heart, what can you do?
Inside and outside the city of Chang'an, there are indeed many people who are frozen every year as described in the poem, although those people may not have the profound consciousness and lofty ambition of "having tens of thousands of mansions and sheltering the poor people in the world", but they are all his Li Er's people! They don't deserve to be frozen to death!
"What a poem indeed! This poet is also a great talent! ”
The thousands of thoughts in Li Er's heart could only be turned into a long sigh in the end!
Li Zexuan "struck while the iron was hot" at this time: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the original intention of the minister to set up a public welfare fund is to gather the strength of everyone to help those poor people, or people like the old gentleman who have never met talents and are in trouble!" Only in this way will there be fewer and fewer tragedies like the old gentleman's! ”
Empress Eldest Sun slowed down for a while, her mood had stabilized, and he turned his head to Li Er and said, "Your Majesty, this method of Yong'an Hou is novel!" It's the first time I've heard that you can do such good deeds! But the horizontal and vertical will not put pressure on the treasury, Your Majesty might as well be accurate~? ”
Li Er looked at Li Zexuan and nodded, "I'm right!" Allow you to set up this public welfare foundation in the name of the imperial court! ”
Li Zexuan smiled and arched his hand: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
