Chapter 845: Bold Advances
Yu Panxi vaguely felt that when Ju Ziyu claimed to have swept Xuanli Yaxing, there seemed to be a disdain and ridicule in his eyes, and it was a coincidence that Xuanli had always been strictly forbidden when he pretended to be Douding, and tried to hide his true character, but he never thought that today's temporary indulgence was actually seen by Ju Ziyu by mistake, in his eyes, a generation of Ming Jun should always be concerned about the important affairs of the court and politics, and relieve the suffering of the people, but Xuanli actually played with his friends with a big grin, and the other party was still a man, no wonder his expression was like this.
Thinking of this, Yu Panxi smiled slightly, and said disapprerovitically: "Although you are the champion of the double department, but after all, you have not officially canonized the official knight, and the words of courage seem to be unreasonable, in case you anger Long Wei, I am afraid that the glory of this champion will disappear before you can enjoy it, have you thought of this?" ”
"Nature." Ju Ziyu's face was full of relief, it seemed that for Yu Panxi's reminder, he had thought about it for a long time, and finally made a decision, just as Xiao Chumo described before, he was quite conceited, even if he was facing the emperor's biological mother in front of him, Ju Ziyu was also very calm, he kept the rules and did not dare to look directly at Yu Panxi's face, but the confidence between the words was very obvious.
"Madam, I have a word, I don't know whether to say it or not?"
"Even if it is." Yu Panxi replied.
Ju Ziyu nodded, and then glanced at Xuanli, who was flying a kite with Ah Ye not far away, laughing like a silver bell, and continued: "Although Your Majesty was young when he ascended the throne, he was carrying the burden of the entire country, and he should be strict with his duties, but his private personality is still like a child, is this a little too unreasonable? And as the birth mother of His Majesty, I think Madame also bears some responsibility. ”
Then Ju Ziyu knelt down, lowered his eyes and said: "I have always been straightforward, I like to correct things in front of my face, if this makes Mrs. unhappy, I implore Mrs. to punish, I will never complain!" ”
Yu Panxi condescendingly looked at Ju Ziyu who knelt on the ground, and was quite surprised in his heart, since Dou Ding ascended the throne and became emperor, it seems that no one has ever dared to point out to her face that she had not educated Dou Ding in person without knowing her identity, and now Ju Ziyu actually ignored it, risked being kicked out of the palace, and said something from the bottom of her heart, which made Yu Panxi quite surprised.
Although his actions, according to common sense, Yu Panxi really can't be spared, but now Xuanli is having a lot of fun with Ah Ye, not only Ju Ziyu, but many people have seen it in a row, no wonder he has the courage to speak, after all, this matter is related to Xuanli's face, which can be big or small.
After pondering for a moment, Yu Panxi used Ju Ziyu's words to skillfully resolve and say:
"Although your reminder is inappropriate, but for the sake of your intentions, I will spare you for the time being, as for Your Majesty's childlike things, don't you think that it is precisely because of the many missions she shoulders every day, when she rarely meets friends who grow up together, she will rarely release her nature and play for a while? Presumably, since you were a child, you didn't just be locked in your room to study poetry and books, such a boring life, right? ”
Yu Panxi's explanation made Ju Ziyu speechless, and then he said lightly: "Since Madame thinks so, then I won't say more, it's not too early, if Madame doesn't punish me, can I go to the banquet hall?" ”
"Of course." Yu Panxi smiled.
Watching Ju Ziyu's thin and tall figure gradually walk away, Yu Panxi couldn't help frowning slightly, she really got her wish today, and saw the arrogant and conceited Ju Ziyu with her own eyes, but found that she was a little different from what she imagined, although he was not good at tactfulness, he was straightforward in case of trouble, and he was never afraid of offending people, but what he said boldly was all reasonable, not unbelievable, if he was left in the palace, it must be a mixed blessing, right?
The banquet officially began, the elegant sound of the guzheng was played, accompanied by the dancing of Kabuki, the whole banquet was very lively, the officials sat cross-legged, drinking wine, enjoying delicious food, the picture looked very harmonious, but there was only one place that was incompatible with the scene at this moment, that was the corner where Juziyu was sitting!
Although yesterday Ju Ziyu arrogantly declined the invitation of many officials, which caused many people to complain about him, there were still people who came forward with wine glasses to congratulate, Ju Ziyu only occasionally perfunctory response, for him, this does not seem to be a celebration banquet, just a wine and meat occasion that he is obviously not used to, but must be hard to persevere.
Finally, halfway through the feast, as Yu Panxi expected, Ju Ziyu finally broke this harmonious picture, and said with the strength of the wine: "The villain has the courage to implore Your Majesty to forbid the banquet to continue, if there is such precious time, why can't everyone get together to talk about some national reforms, or important matters of the court?" ”
Obviously, when celebrating the outstanding people in the imperial examination over the years, no one dared to question the reason for the banquet, but Ju Ziyu dared to do so, and the officials who were already unconvinced by it were even more bitter at this time, and before Xuan left his mouth, he said sarcastically:
"This banquet is held by His Majesty, and the purpose is to help you celebrate, but Ju Ziyu, you really don't know what to do, and you don't take Your Majesty's good intentions seriously, you are so conceited and arrogant, can you have Your Majesty and us in your eyes?"
"The reason why Ju Ziyu studied hard and won the top prize is not to please anyone, but only to do a little bit for the suffering of the community, the wine and food at the banquet at this moment are all worth a lot, if this is exchanged for food and distributed to the people begging on the street, I am afraid it is enough to make them laugh in their dreams, right?" Ju Ziyu responded to the other party's question drunkenly and hazy.
Seeing that he still didn't know what to do, and knew that he dared to say such words and deeds, someone simply said bluntly: "Since you want to distribute grain, why don't you become a ploughman who farms and herds cattle?" ”
"Enough!" Seeing that under the influence of wine, this farce would continue, Xiao Chumo's majestic voice came at this moment, and sure enough, the officials who were besieging Ju Ziyu together just now did not dare to be presumptuous at this time.
But even so, there are still people who are dissatisfied with Ju Ziyu, and they repeatedly admonished Xuan Li: "Your Majesty, the original intention of our country to create the imperial examination is to allow more outstanding talents to enter the court, but it is not to recruit arrogant people like Ju Ziyu, arrogant and conceited, and no one in his eyes. ”
"That's right, Your Majesty, the ministers and others are willing to jointly get rid of Ju Ziyu's champion qualifications, reopen the imperial examination, and let the really smart people enter the court, which will also help Your Majesty's foundation in the future, as for Ju Ziyu, please also ask Your Majesty to order someone to drive him out of the palace, and he will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination in his lifetime!"
As he spoke, all the officials knelt on the spot and begged Xuanli to give an order.
