Chapter 2: The Three Urgents
"Xuanming is ten years old, Jin Kejin came forward to meet him."
Led by Yang Mingju, ** Qing, and Shi Zhongtai, followed by more than 40 scholars, kneeling on the ground and shouting in unison, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." β
In the square pavilion, an old man in a bright yellow dragon robe sat looking at the Jinke Jinshi all over the ground, with a relieved smile on his face, and waved his hand lightly, "Flatten." β
"Emperor Xie."
As soon as everyone got up, a eunuch with a square mat was placed behind each of the scholars.
"Sit down."
"Whoa"
Everyone bowed their hands and sat down.
"You may wonder why I let you sit down?"
"The emperor is benevolent and loves us."
Seeing that it was the champion Yang Mingju who spoke, the emperor glanced at him and nodded slightly.
"Who has the solution?"
All the gentlemen looked at each other, but no one said a word. Just when the emperor thought that no one would answer, a lazy voice sounded.
"The people are suffering, the country is in difficulty, after more than ten years, the emperor has a heart full of words to warn all sentient beings."
"You are?"
"Student, Shizihang."
The emperor's brows furrowed slightly, and an old eunuch hurriedly whispered a reminder in his ear.
"You're Shi Zhongtai? Those who were in a hurry to test the temple that day? β
As soon as he asked, everyone laughed.
Shi Zhongtai did not have a trace of shame on his face, "The student is Shi Zhongtai." People have three urgency, which cannot be controlled by my body, so we must not be in a hurry. β
"Hahaha, then tell me, what do the three urgents refer to?"
"The three urgency are internal urgency, sexual urgency, and anxiety."
The emperor listened curiously, "It's fresh, so what is internal urgency, what is sexual urgency, and what is urgency?" β
Everyone also pricked up their ears to see what Shi Zhongtai said.
"In the vernacular, internal urgency is a thatched house, sexual urgency is a cave house, and anxiousness can refer to a wife giving birth to a child and a husband being anxious."
"Vulgar!"
"That's fine."
The emperor nodded, closed the fan in his hand, and placed it in the palm of his left hand.
"Your words are actually not much different from those of Mingju, but they are just icing on the cake."
"What the emperor said is that the students are only embellishment on the basis of Brother Mingju."
Motioning for him to sit down, the emperor smiled at everyone, and the topic was lifted.
"After today, you will be my protΓ©gΓ©, and I will be your husband. From this day forward, you will all have to go about your duties, and as your husband, I would like to say a few words to you. β
"For one term of office, for the benefit of one party. Since the founding of the Great Middle Dynasty, the people have spread all over the Central Plains, although there are soldiers guarding the frontier, but there is no shortage of bad squires and murderous bandits in the jurisdiction of the court, so I need you, and the people of the Chinese Dynasty also need you. β
A group of scholars shouted in unison, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, "The students are willing to go to the soup for our emperor, and they will not hesitate." β
"I am the king of a country, in a high position, and I have the people in my heart, but I can't reach them. And you are like my right and left hands, in all parts of China and North Korea, and only by doing things seriously can we solve my worries. Since ancient times, there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book. People who have a wrong interpretation of this may think that they are an official for one term, and they will become an official in vain if they don't make a lot of money. β
"Oh, maybe that's what some of you think. But, today, as I sit in front of you, I can tell you with a smile that I can give you an official position, and I can take your head! β
"In the future, when you want to harm the people, don't forget my words today!"
A hammer and a date, the bluffing scholars were full of blood, and on the way out of the palace, they discussed together endlessly. Shi Zhongtai watched it funny from the sidelines, and was so bored that he began to scan the environment of the palace.
"Brother Zhongtai, I heard that you are about to get married?"
"It's a good thing, but when is this happening, Zhongtai, why don't you tell us!"
"Congratulations, Brother Zhongtai."
"The four joys of life: a long drought and a rainstorm, and a foreign country. The cave room spends candle night, when the gold list is inscribed. This Tai brother accounts for two! Double happiness is coming, congratulations! β
Wool, which big mouth is this?
Before the crowd got up, Shi Zhongtai hurriedly suppressed his voice with his hand, "Fellow students, please spare me." It's not credible. β
"If there is any good thing, Zhongtai will send out invitations and invite you to get together."
Regarding Shi Zhongtai's words, everyone just laughed, but they didn't believe what he said. After all, after the middle lift, there is no matchmaker who comes to the door to bother one or two, and some even go directly to the door to catch a son-in-law and marry a relative, which is a common thing, and it is also a good thing to pass to Kyoto over the years.
Pulling ** Ren to his side, Shi Zhongtai asked in a low voice, "You know about things the size of sesame seeds, you Zhou Gongzi knows?" You're not going to have eyeliner next to me, are you? β
At the beginning, **Ren was still happy, and when he heard this sentence directly, his face turned white at the end.
"Brother Zhongtai, I..."
"I'm kidding you, you're serious."
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Shi Zhongtai spared him.
"Where are you going to go in a moment..."
"Tanhualang, please stay."
As he was talking, he heard the voice of a eunuch behind him, followed by hurried footsteps. Looking back, he found that he was the father-in-law next to the emperor, and Shi Zhongtai didn't dare to despise it, "I don't know what the father-in-law is looking for his students?" β
"Tanhualang, summoned by the emperor's imperial study."
"Whoa"
"Brother Zhongtai, if that's the case, then I'll go first."
Nodding, Shi Zhongtai turned around and arched his hand to the father-in-law, "Father-in-law is tired to lead the way." β
"Tanhualang is polite."
The Imperial Study.
"The student Shizihang visits the emperor."
"Flat."
"Your Majesty."
Shi Zhongtai stood straight in the hall, his eyes looked at the cloth shoes under his feet, and listened honestly to the next instructions. Shi Zhongtai himself could feel that the old emperor in front of him was looking at himself, no, he was looking at himself, up and down, looking at himself carefully, as if he was going to see through himself. Shi Zhongtai was a little angry and a little embarrassed, and shook his body unconsciously.
"Shi Zhongtai, where are you?"
"If you go back to the emperor, the student is from Nanhe Qamdo."
"Nanhe is a good place, the people are simple, the land of grain and rice. Presumably, your father's life is not bad, right? β
"The student's parents are deceased."
The emperor was slightly surprised, "It's bitter for them, but if they know about it and see that you are now Tanhualang, they should be blind." β
"What the emperor said is that my father and mother were dedicated to reading and writing for students to read and write, just for this day. It's a pity that they couldn't see with their own eyes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, and the child wants to raise but not wait. β
"You're benevolent. Let's not mention these sad things, so as not to make you sad. β
The old emperor took the initiative to lift the next page, "Hit Tanhua, have you thought about what to do?" β
I want to be the emperor, will you give it to me?
Really, I can't be the master myself and still come to ask me, it's full of routines.
I was slandered in my heart, and I had to look loyal to the court on the face of the teacher, "Back to the emperor, the students don't know what is in the officialdom, they only know that they are loyal to the emperor and the Great Middle Dynasty." β
