Chapter 82: The Worries of the Royal Family (I)
The crowd is raging, and the situation is one-sided. Geng Gong stood at the bottom, anxious, with a splitting headache, under the wrapped white cloth, faintly bleeding, and sweat flowed down his cheeks.
After everyone finished playing, Geng Gong came out of the ranks, knelt on the ground, and cried: "Weichen heard that the sons of heaven of Shengming are all governed by filial piety, in the past, the Empress Dowager Bo was weak and often sick, and Emperor Wen of Han was diligent in managing the government, and his clothes did not disintegrate, and he accompanied the Empress Dowager Bo in front of the bed. Later, Empress Dowager Bo's body recovered, while Emperor Wen of Han fell ill due to overwork. The benevolence and filial piety of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty touched the people of the world, and the people served the country with loyalty, the family with filial piety, and the national strength was prosperous, and there was the rule of Wenjing. Before the death of the minister's mother, she often taught Weichen to be loyal to the country, Weichen kept it in mind, and went to the Western Regions to fight Siyi, the minister's mother died, Weichen was not by her side, and she did not fulfill her filial piety for half a point, regret and grief in this life! May the emperor think about governing the country with filial piety, and pity the minister's filial piety, Xu Chen will go to duty and filial piety for three years, and the minister will be grateful, and he will also set an example for the world! ”
Geng Gong burst into tears, these words, from the perspective of the family and the country, eloquently, sincerely, many civil and military officials were moved, and secretly thought: "Ding worries and keeps filial piety, it has been an old rule, Geng Gong invited, it is not impossible!" But under Dou Gu's prestige, no one dared to speak, and even Geng Bing stood solemnly.
Emperor Zhang's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said: "Geng Gong, although what you said makes sense, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty disagree. I can't bear to be alone for you, and I have lost your family. Besides, the world is restless, the country thinks of good generals, and the Geng family is a meritorious family, so why favor personal feelings instead of the Han family? ”
Geng Gong was in a hurry, sweating like rain, and repeatedly kowtowed and begged, but Emperor Zhang just shouldn't. Geng Gong was already injured, coupled with the wind and cold, dizzy, and weak, kneeling on the ground like this, kowtowing "bang bang", only to feel that the world was spinning, where could he support it? His forehead was high and swollen and covered with blood. Geng Gongshang gritted his teeth and held on, but he was weak, and finally his body was crooked and he fainted.
Emperor Zhang stood up, looked at the ministers coldly, didn't say a word, brushed his sleeves and walked out. Zhongchang hurriedly raised his head and shouted, "Scatter the dynasty!" Dou Gu looked at Geng Gong on the ground, flicked his sleeves, put his hands behind him, strode out of the Zhengde Palace. The civil and military officers lowered their heads, some were full of guilt, and some were gloating...... also walked out silently. Geng Bing, Zheng Zhong, Han Ling and others hurriedly surrounded Geng Gong. Geng Bing pinched Geng Gong's people, and after a while, Geng Gong woke up and said sadly: "Brother, I'd rather die than serve!" ”
When Geng Bing heard this, his heart felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and he could only sigh. He really didn't expect things to come to this point.
When Emperor Zhang returned to Weiyang Palace, his eyebrows were not spread, his heart was depressed, and he paced back and forth in front of the bookcase. The waiter bent down and bowed his head, grinding the ink hard, sneering, sneering...... Again and again, the monotonous voice hit the heart, making people feel more worried. Emperor Zhang was very impatient, waved his hand, and Zhongchang stopped his hand, laid out a white announcement, and presented a large pen. Emperor Zhang grabbed it, took advantage of a wave of anger, dipped it in ink, the pen walked the dragon and snake, and the iron drew the silver hook, like clouds and smoke and flowing water, all in one go! After writing, Emperor Zhang threw the pen on the ground and sighed.
Zhongchang waited to take a look, and saw its color and shape, thick and thin, dry and wet, intermittent tossing and turning, all of which were just right, the thickness of the hidden dew was endless, the weather was thousands, and the majestic was thousands of miles, and I couldn't help but admire: "Long live the words of the Lord can be sent and received freely, and the sky is inclusive, and the breath is thousands of miles, which is the mind and momentum of a generation of masters!" ”
Emperor Zhang's annoyance eased a little, and he walked slowly towards Ganquan Palace. Ganquan Palace is the sleeping place of the Empress Dowager Ma, on the east side of Weiyang Palace, but one or two miles away. After a while, Emperor Zhang saw Princess Yurong sitting next to the Empress Dowager, and couldn't help but be a little angry: "Yurong, look at the good things you have done!" Leaving the palace without permission, the queen mother was worried, and she didn't close her eyes all night, hum, you are not too young, say quickly, why are you going? ”
After a reprimand, Yurong burst into tears. Emperor Zhang suddenly softened and sighed: "Sister, you are a princess, don't cry at every turn, let the world see the joke." ”
Empress Dowager Ma said angrily: "You, the emperor's brother, are reproached as soon as you come, Yurong has loved to cry since she was a child, you don't know it, why don't you say it?" ”
Emperor Zhang's sword eyebrows tightened, and he didn't make a sound, sitting down heavily, panting. Yurong's tears rolled all over the ground like beads of broken threads. Seeing that Emperor Zhang was preoccupied, Empress Dowager Ma knew that he had something important, so she gently patted Yurong's shoulder and said softly: "Yurong, you go back first, and the Queen Mother will go to see you later, okay?" ”
Yurong burst into tears, her eyes were full of sadness, and she cried: "The queen mother and the emperor ......are busy first" She stood up, saluted, and left.
Emperor Zhang looked at the departing Yurong and complained: "Queen Mother, it's all you, you only know how to spoil Yurong, and you are obedient to her, and you can't even speak loudly, you see, it's so big, you only know how to cry and cry all day long, what kind of system ......"
Empress Dowager Ma sighed: "Your Majesty, your sister grew up in the deep palace, although she has no worries about food and clothing, but she is lonely in her heart and has no happiness. In the past, Ma Juan accompanied her and talked about her heart. Now that Ma Juan is dead, Rong'er doesn't know how much tears she has shed. Alas, if she were a peasant girl, she might not be so miserable. ”
Emperor Zhang fell into deep thought, as if he was not enlightened, and said: "Queen Mother, but there is no assumption, people can't choose, my sister is already an emperor's daughter, so she should adapt to the palace life, instead of crying all day long." ”
Empress Dowager Ma stared at Emperor Zhang and said, "Your Majesty, how similar you were to the first emperor with that look just now!" Alas, it's been a few years, and the first emperor has been away from me for a long, long time...... "The past years are picturesque, and they come to mind, and the Empress Dowager Ma's eyes are red." She stabilized her mood and said, "Your Majesty, seeing that you are depressed, what is the matter?" ”
Emperor Zhang sighed, stood up, looked into the distance, and said resolutely: "The child wants to make a few uncles marquis!" ”
"What? Do you want to seal the horse defense and the horse light them as the marquis? Empress Ma was startled, stood up, and said in a trembling voice.
Emperor Zhang stared at the Empress Dowager Ma tightly, and said word by word: "Yes, Queen Mother, I hope you don't stop me!" ”
Empress Ma had weak legs, sat down on the chair, and said sadly: "When Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty, within one day, even the five relatives of the Wang family were marquis, the sky was angry and resentful, the yellow fog was stuffed, and the months did not disperse, and the queen Mang was defeated, and the nine clans of the Wang family were all punished. Now that the emperor wants to crown the three of the Ma family as marquis, I think, the Ma family should be like the Wang family, and it is in danger, is this to love the Ma family, or to hate the Ma family? ”
