Chapter 352: Offering Prisoners (8)
Tang Guizhang's article "Qu Yuan and Li Houzhu" said: "When I ask when the spring flowers and autumn moon are, I am asking for a quick death." "Spring flowers and autumn moons are endless and life is endless, which is not only sad for Li Yu, but also a great sorrow for human beings.
Yu Pingbo's "Reading Words Occasionally" commented on the sentence "Strange words split into the air".
"Xiaolou had an east wind last night" more specifically confirms the fact that the spring flowers and autumn moon cannot end. From Xiaolou to the old country, the words "unbearable" are the words of blood in the heart. "In the moonlight" is not only the "moon" that echoes the opening sentence "spring flowers and autumn moon", but also shrouds Xiaolou, the homeland, life, etc. in the eternal moonlight, so Li Yu's personal sorrow is naturally close to the great sorrow of mankind.
Zhao Heng fell in love with Liu E and spared no effort to become a life couple with her; However, Song Taizong strongly objected, and the two had to be temporarily separated.
Zhao Heng built Yishu Garden in the sour jujube gate under Wang Qinruo's advice, and hid Liu E in it, Liu E endured humiliation and studied in Yishu Garden for 15 years; His perseverance and spirit amazed the world.
The love between Zhao Heng and Liu E is an absolute specimen and model of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and the sweetness of the love between the two can be compared with the heavenly wish for the winged bird, and the earth can be for the Lianli branch, but I wish people a long time and a thousand miles together.
Liu E hibernated in Yishu Yuan for fifteen years after being driven out of the palace by Song Taizong, what a long time fifteen years is; But while waiting for a reunion with Song Zhenzong, she read a lot of books in Yishu Yuan to become a female politician.
finally looked forward to Song Taizong's ascension, and the two came together again; Song Zhenzong wanted to make Liu E the queen, but he was resolutely opposed by the ministers led by Kou Zhun and failed to do so, and Yishu Garden is still a nest for the two to reminisce about love.
Several large catalpa trees more than ten zhang high form a huge parasol on the shore of Yishu Lake in Yishu Garden, blocking the sunlight shining from the clear sky.
The autumn cicadas lie on the big autumn trees and make desperate noise, these small cicadas that have lived underground for 17 years and are about to shed their shells and metamorphose in an instant after drilling out of the soil, and the survival time is only three months; In the short period of three months, the great succession must be completed, and the desperate quarrel is to summon the opposite sex to come and love; to complete the historical tasks given by nature.
Life is so great, but the autumn cicada is so simple; Human life is so complicated and distracted
Song Zhenzong and Liu E sat opposite each other, and not far away were father-in-law Zhang Di, Zhou Zhou, Zhou Huaizheng, several close ministers and a few palace maids holding teapots and flies.
The palace maid Qing'er ran over from time to time to get a few mosquito coils inserted in the emperor and Liu Niangniang's side, and replaced them with one after burning.
Liu E glanced at Qing'er disdainfully, and smiled at Emperor Zhenzong: "Official, do you estimate that you hit the bull's-eye that night?" ”
This is a strange question, "Did you hit the bull's-eye?" "What do you mean?
Of course, outsiders don't know, but Emperor Zhenzong knows it, he raised his arm and stroked his forehead, hehe smiled: "I estimate that nine times out of ten, I have to really thank you Liuliu for being behind!" ”
Emperor Zhenzong's answer is also obscure, what is "nine times out of ten is shot"?
We don't have to sell the guanzi, just roll the pin and blow the fire, let's talk straight to the ground! The obscure conversation between Liu E and Emperor Zhenzong is about the same thing - Li Lanhui's bedtime.
Oh, it turned out to be Li Lanhui! That's right, it's Li Lanhui.
Emperor Zhenzong met Liu E on the streets of Bianliang at the age of 14, when Liu E was also 14 years old, and that year should be the seventh year of Taizong Taizong of the Song Dynasty (982 AD); Zhao Heng is still the king of Xiang.
Zhao Heng, the king of Xiang, took Liu E back to the Xiangwang Mansion and tried to fight the mandarin ducks, but Zhao Heng's nurse, Mrs. Qin Guo, hated Liu E very much and sued Song Taizong; Liu E was kicked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the two came together after Emperor Zhenzong ascended the throne; But at this time, Liu E was already 36 years old and missed the best age to have children.
To add insult to injury, several of Zhao Heng's children died one after another, and the eldest princess, who grew up, was sent to the Daomen since she was a child; The heir became the thing that Zhao Heng and Liu E were most worried about.
Fortunately, Liu E was empathetic, and Li Lanhui, who had not long been a monk in the Taoist temple, asked him to return to Yishu Garden to serve the emperor.
The emperor drank some more wine that day, and pampered Li Lanhui, who was sleeping next to him, several times, so he said the words "nine times out of ten, I missed".
Liu E heard Emperor Zhenzong say the words "nine times out of ten, I will be shot", and I was overjoyed and said: "It's good to shoot!" The concubine and her aunt Chun Yu Wanyun have already discussed, as long as Li Lanhui has the dragon son left, the concubine will raise her together; There is no need for housekeepers to be frustrated that there is no successor! ”
Emperor Zhenzong heard Liu E say this, and got up from the rattan chair and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Liu E shyly put her head against Zhao Heng's chest and grinned: "Brother Heng is not afraid of Zhang Di, they will see it on Monday!" ”
Zhao Heng laughed loudly and said, "Gonggong Zhang is my close minister, what if you see it!" ”
Emperor Zhenzong glanced at Zhang Di as he spoke, beckoned, "Zhang Qing, a few of you come here, I want to talk to everyone!" ”
Zhang Di, Zhou Zhou, Zhou Huaizheng, several eunuchs and maid Qing'er heard the emperor's summons and quickly came to him, Liu E spoke first: "The emperor wants to ask Zheng Shuang if there is any news over there, right?" ”
Emperor Zhenzong sneered and smiled, and said, "Liuliu is really a roundworm in my stomach, and what the widow wants to say has already been guessed by you. ”
Zhang Di heard Zhenzong say this, bowed down and said: "The old slave dared to ask, what does it mean that the saint has always called Liu Niangniang Liuliu?" ”
Emperor Zhenzong was stunned, and immediately raised his arm and said, "Zhang Qing doesn't understand this? Liuliu is Liu Niangniang's surname! It was supposed to be Liu, and Liu was called six with the same sound; The reason why the six characters are shouted on both sides is completely for cordiality! ”
Zhang Di bowed and said, "The old slave is stupid, the saint finally understands what he said!" ”
Zhang Di said and saluted again, and said, "Zhang Qing's four disciples are Wu Wei, Lang Zhen, Ba Si, and Hou Fang?" ”
Zhang Di saluted again: "Qiqi Sheng, the four disciples of the old slave are Wu Wei, Lang Zhen, Ba Si, and Hou Fang!" ”
Zhang Di said this without concealment: "These four unfilial sons participated in the kidnapping of Leng Bingshuang that night; But this is all hired by Wang Qinruo with a lot of money! ”
"Is there such a thing?" Emperor Zhenzong looked at Zhang Di in surprise and said, "Then why didn't Wang Qinruo tell this matter in the court?" ”
"It's not that Wang Qinruo didn't say it, but the old slave persuaded Kou Xiangye and Zheng Shuang to stop them from mentioning this matter in the court!"
Liu E interjected: "Wang Qinruo has been planted very miserably, if you mention the matter of spending money to hire the four masters of Da Nei, don't let the officials cut him for the people!" ”
Hearing Liu E's tone was very sympathetic to Wang Qinruo, Song Zhenzong also sighed and said: "Wang Qinruo's judgment of the Tianxiong Army is also a helpless move, but Wang Qinruo is really a talent!" Emperor Zhenzong has already given birth to a heart of concern for Wang Qinruo: "But at that time, the situation in the court was compelled, and I could only listen to Kou Laoxi!" ”
"Kou Laoxi, this oil gourd is running a carriage with a mouth, is it bewitching the official!" Liu E began to fight back.
Liu E's obedience to Kou Zhun's nonsense made Wang Qinruo very annoyed by the judgment of the Tianxiong Army, but at that time, it was the trend of the times and could only rely on the emperor.
Moreover, there was a family law in the Song Dynasty that women could not interfere in court politics, and Liu E and Chun Yu Wanyun were hiding behind the screen at that time to listen to the debate in the court.
The debate in the court can be described as a wave of unsettled, and Kou Zhun actually scolded the street, "Lao Tzu x your mother!" ”
Kou Zhun scolded Wang Qinruo, because Wang Qinruo said that Kou Zhun colluded with the Empress Dowager Xiao of Liao; In the palace, there is a Liao spy Leng Bingshuang, and Wang Qinruo also colluded with the three brothers Chen Yaosuo, Chen Yaozuo, and Chen Yaozhi, the three heroes of Shudi, to advise the emperor to move the capital, saying that Leng Bingshuang is a Liao State spy.
Leng Bingshuang, a woman from a butcher, could still hold it back, and taught Chen Yao a lesson with her fists.
The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and his fist is the magistrate. But Emperor Zhenzong sat in the court, and the minister Chen Yaozhi was also beaten by cold frost; I am afraid that this is a person who has no ancients and no one who will come after.
The cold and frosty fist played an irreplaceable role during the critical period, and Wang Qinruo and his gang really coaxed; Zheng Shuang took the opportunity to fight back, only to see him clear his throat and say: "Wang Qinruo is a political governor; knew that Kou Xiangye had detained Tang Bao and he didn't report it to the emperor, but he wanted to take it to the court to make trouble; This is not an obvious attempt to get rid of Kou Zhun by forming a party for personal gain! ”
After a pause, he calmed down and said: "Kou Zhun is a person from Guanzhong who likes to drink a sip of wine, has a quick temper, and his language is not very civilized; But he is a loyal minister, which is irreplaceable, but Wang Qinruo said that Kou Zhun detained Tangbao and waited for the arrival of the army of the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao State, and he should cooperate with the outside world to be the emperor; This kind of ridiculous and generous words can only be said by him! ”
Wang Qinruo heard Zheng Shuang say this, staring with slanted eyes and not knowing what to say.
Zheng Shuang stared at Wang Qinruo a few times and said reluctantly: "Weichen had long expected that Wang Qinruo would participate in Kou Zhun at the court meeting, but he scolded Kou Zhun at the beginning; Suddenly shifted the target and said the words of moving the capital to Jinling; Such words are demagogic and disturb the government; Should be killed! ”
Zheng Shuang said and looked at Langzhong Sanjie and said: "Wang Qinruo's proposal to move the capital is an obvious move to disrupt the country, and it has been supported by the three brothers Chen Yaosuo, Chen Yaozuo, and Chen Yaozhi, and the three brothers are even more ingenious to move the capital to Chengdu; When did Chengdu become the capital of the Central Plains Dynasty? ”
Chen Yaosuo, Chen Yaozuo, and Chen Yaozuo didn't show weakness when they saw Zheng Shuang asking like this, and the boss Chen Yaosuo walked out of the class and shouted: "You stinky little kid is too domineering in the court!" The emperor personally presided over the court meeting, and the courtiers spoke freely, and we naturally had a reason to move the capital to Chengdu! ”
Zheng Shuang said "yo he" and said: "I want to hear the details!" Please also ask Chen Zhuangyuan to state the reason! ”
Chen Yaosuo perked up his spirits and said: "The reason has been mentioned by this official before, here I only talk about Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms; Zhuge Liang is the prime minister, and he governs Chengdu with simple customs; There is no way to go! ”
"What a cowhide!" Zheng Shuang scolded him and said: "After Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang was in charge of the Shu State for only 12 years, and almost all of the 12 years were in the army of Cao Wei; Later, he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, where is the time to govern Chengdu? If you want to say that the person who governs Chengdu is Liu Chan, but Chengdu is a peaceful place after all; How can it be the capital of the Great Song Dynasty! With Mr. Chen's proposition, Chengdu will be the national capital, where will Chang'an be given? You don't know that Chang'an is the birthplace of Chinese civilization, and the Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang dynasties are all in Chang'an! ”
Chen Yaosuo ate and ate: "This ...... This ......"
Zheng Shuang fixed the artifact Yu Xuanang: "Wang Qinruo said that the capital would be moved to Jinling, and the three heroes of Bashu said that the capital would be moved to Chengdu; It is really chilling that these two views have been supported by many ministers of civil and military affairs! ”
Zheng Shuang glanced around, raised his arm and said: "The imperial court gives the ministers a frighteningly high salary, a seventh-grade official has a monthly salary of 50 yuan, and a fisherman's monthly income is only 3 yuan; Comparing the two with the income of the seven officials, it is equal to 16 fishermen! In addition to these regular incomes, there are also clothing, millet and millet for tea, wine and kitchen materials, charcoal, salt, clothing and food for retinues, horses and corn, additional expenses, office money, minister's money, and rewards. The court paid high salaries to support officials, so that officials could serve the court; But your mind is full of wisdom to protect your life, and when you see the enemy, all you want is to escape......"
