Chapter 62: Nantian

The meaning of this sentence was obvious, and several imperial officials were secretly glad that they did not listen to Kou Ge Lao's words and participate in the performance.

This kind of thing can be caused by the court, Song Yiyao only thinks it's ridiculous. No refutation or justification. He just stood there in silence.

happened to mention the incident back then, Kou Ge Lao twisted his eyebrows and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Miss Song Er did back then was a deviant! In recent years, several travelogues have also been published in the name of Bai Wei, and the women in the boudoir who are encouraged cannot keep to themselves and abide by women's morals. There is such a first-class as An Luzi and half Fenghe, and it should be sentenced for crime! ”

As soon as this passage came out, the hall was in an uproar. All of the people mentioned by Kou Ge are the authors of the world's best-selling anthologies in recent years. Bai Wei's travelogue, An Luzi's playbook, and Ban Fenghe's collection of words can all be called a must.

From her affair to her mother, Song Yiyao couldn't bear it anymore, and his face was unusually tense:

"I'm ignorant, but I don't know what the old man of Kou Ge means by keeping oneself and abiding by women's ways. Dare to ask Kou Ge Lao what status he put the woman in! ”

Facing Song Yiyao, Kou Ge Lao was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and said with a stiff neck: "Three from the four virtues, unmarried from the father, married from the husband, the husband from the son, the woman's virtue, the woman's words, the woman's appearance, and the woman's merit." Which one does Miss Song Er follow! ”

"What if the husband is wrong?"

"It's wrong, it's naturally not the turn of a woman to meddle."

"There is nothing wrong with three obedience and four virtues, but Kou Ge Lao is here to advocate blind obedience, where is the woman placed!"

On the dragon chair, Tang Shao looked around, listening to them coming and going, and thought of his friends. It may be that he is getting older, and it is easier and easier to remember the events of the past.

Twenty years ago, Li Xiang also stood here like this, arguing and impassioned, and he was born as a human being, and he should be equal. When it comes to taking talents, you can't favor the powerful.

Argument after argument has brought back countless perverse laws that have been modified.

At that time, they all thought that those laws could change something, and he thought that twenty years later, the Qinzheng Temple was still lit with an everlasting lamp, and the pedantic people still did not change, and the equality and respect they pursued at that time did not come.

But now he sees a change, and no matter what, it's something to be happy about.

He still remembers the drunken joke at that time, perhaps, one day it will come true.

Below, the debate continues. Elder Kou Ge was so angry that he blew his beard and glared:

"As a woman, she is restless and self-conscious, and she runs out to learn from men to do some ridiculous articles and travelogues! How not to make a mistake? ”

"I wonder if Kou Ge has seen their works?"

"Hmph, this official won't look at those messy things. What you will see are some vassal atmosphere that has been instigated, and look at strange people. ”

As soon as these words came out, most of the court officials were not convinced. After all, they were all scolded by Kou Ge.

Liang Yushi was so angry that his mustache was trembling. Deeply at Tang Shao, he said solemnly:

"Weichen once had the privilege of reading Miss Song Er's masterpiece, and his words were quite insightful. Words are used as wonderful sentences, and good words abound.

Not to mention ordinary people, even among us civil officials, there are very few people who can compare with them. At least Weichen is ashamed of himself. ”

After he finished speaking, he straightened up and looked at Kou Ge Lao:

"If you talk about the ridiculousness of the world, Kou Ge Lao has not seen the works of several of them at all, so he is commenting here, this is really the great joke of the world!"

Liang Yushi is a serious bookworm, especially known for being good at commenting on current affairs articles, and all three of them have read their works and appreciate them very much. Usually others have different opinions from him, and he can discuss a few words and laugh at them, but if he talks like Kou Ge Lao, he can't listen to it first.

Liu Ge has always been unkind when he speaks, and as the person who robs Yunyouji every time it is released, he directly said:

"As soon as a new chapter of Cloud Travel comes out, the world will be snatched up. The Imperial City is also hard to find new books, isn't Kou Ge Lao Mo jealous? ”

Thinking of his anthologies that had accumulated dust and not been sold, Kou Ge Lao was even more polite when he spoke:

"Heh, it's just that people are brainless. Adults must not be blinded. ”

This moment exploded even more, Kou Ge Lao never thought that he would be so angry.

"The widow has also read Bai Wei's travelogue, and his writing is outstanding, if he lets such talent be lost in the world, it is a big mistake!"

Tang Shao's conclusion on the coffin made Kou Ge Lao have to be convinced. In the end, this matter was no longer a matter of Song Yiyao or Miss Song Er.

Through such words, the emperor's attitude was understood by everyone.

Listening to their quarrel all morning, Tang Shao also saved up his anger:

"Lord Kou only wrote a book to participate in how Song Aiqing is, but how did the widow hear that Chen Shukang has recently hindered the office of the Criminal Department and instigated right and wrong in the city. Is the security of the imperial city so bad, so bold and reckless to harass important ministers, depending on what the law is, where is the imperial city mansion! ”

Imperial City Mansion Yin had an ominous premonition when Tang Shao began to say that he was obstructing the office.

After listening to the emperor's angry words, he was already trembling with fright. Hearing the last angry shout, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground all of a sudden:

"The minister is here!"

Chen Shukang never thought that he would really enter the official office and be punished for this incident.

There was no need to spread anything in the imperial city, but the various remarks that Kou Ge Lao had argued with his ministers at that time spread out, causing an uproar.

More and more women scoffed at this statement and ridiculed Kou Ge Lao.

For a while, Kou Ge Lao became a street rat, and he still didn't know it.

As soon as this bad incident passed, Song Yiyao never paid attention to the Chen family again.

Nantian Imperial Palace

Huyan Qingluan and Tang Zhen's wedding date is just one month later. The entourage was ready, and it was supposed to be time to go.

"Your Majesty, it's time to leave tomorrow."

After perfunctorily reporting the preparations, Master Zhuang, who accompanied him, raised his voice and added a sentence.

Nantian Wang opened an eye: "What did Aiqing just say?" ”

Master Zhuang raised his voice impatiently: "The minister said, everything is ready, and it is time to leave tomorrow!" ”

He weakly tried to get up from the soft collapse:

"Well, then let this king take a look."

After Wang Shang was sick, how did he remember that one play was another? But the king's intention was unsupportable, so Master Zhuang could only step forward and help the old eunuch next to him: "Be careful." ”

Nantian Wang grabbed his hand and got up in relay, and when he just stood up, his eyes were weak. The figure shook, and he pulled out a smile and said, "My body is getting worse day by day." ”

Master Zhuang didn't dare to answer this sentence, and said respectfully: "You are just a dragon with a poor body. ”

Yes, I was poisoned, isn't it just a lack of health, King Nantian's eyelids lifted, and he took a step forward tremblingly: "This king's illness is many days, whether it is good or not, who can say for sure." ”

As soon as he said a word, he gasped, his whole face was swollen, his temples were white, and he was only in his fifties, but he looked like an old man who was about to die.

It had been many days since I had heard His Majesty say so many words, and Lord Zhuang inevitably thought of the worst point, and with his words, he was frightened and his head lowered even more. I didn't dare to respond, so I could only reluctantly perfunctory.

King Nantian secretly squeezed the old eunuch's hand. The old eunuch turned around and went to get his cloak.

Nantian Wang then walked forward slowly and weakly, and then there were steps, his feet were raised, but he suddenly lost his strength and stepped into the air, and the whole person fell crookedly, as if he had hit something, and let out a miserable scream.

Master Zhuang's brain was blank for a moment, and he didn't know anything. The hand that was stretched out and holding it was empty. Beside him was the screams of the old eunuch.

"Your Majesty!"

How could His Majesty, who was already extremely weak, be able to withstand this fall, the crowd rushed to this side in a chaotic manner, and the eunuchs and palace maids seemed to be falling down, one by one more anxious, but they were thinking in their hearts, this day is finally, is this coming.

After the imperial doctor finished diagnosing him, Zhuang Da regained a little consciousness, knelt outside the tent, and admitted his mistake vigorously.

The Lord Regent hurried over, and the first thing he did was to kick him to the ground.

"Zhuang Liancheng! What do you want to murder Your Majesty? ”

Master Zhuang spat out a mouthful of blood and quickly crawled back to kneel. Let the regent be discouraged.

He also knew what a big mistake he had made. His Majesty was about to set off, but His Majesty broke his leg. In addition, he was already sick and weak. If he is allowed to die like this, he will die halfway. It is necessary to be said by others that it is deliberate, and it is the regent's intention to deny it. He tried to justify it:

"Your Highness, it's the fault of Wechen, Wechen didn't support Your Majesty. But Wei Chen didn't know that His Majesty was so weak. It was an accident! ”

The regent walked around anxiously: "Tomorrow, tomorrow is going to go, can he go like this?" How do you ask me to deal with Da Zhou! If the Great Zhou waves his troops because of this matter, you will give me to calm the anger of the Great Zhou Emperor! ”

From the imperial tent, a weak voice came out: "Is the regent coming?" ”

The regent restrained his anger slightly, paused, signaled the eunuchs to open the imperial tent, and when he saw the king of Nantian inside, he made a gesture before asking, "Brother Wang is awake?" ”

"Well, I just woke up. It's not Liancheng's fault. You don't blame him. It's Brother Wang, Brother Wang's body, I'm afraid I won't have a few days to live. ”

As he spoke, tears began to flow from the corners of his eyes.

Where has the regent seen him like this, he does not doubt him, and hurriedly comforts: "Brother Wang just fell, why say such frustrating words." Just take a few days of recuperation. ”

Nantian Wang half sat on the bed, hammered his leg fiercely with his hand, and grabbed the brocade quilt with the other hand to endure the pain: "Zhi'er, it's time to leave for Da Zhou tomorrow." What should I do with my leg? ”

At first, when he heard this title, the regent stopped his hand and stiffened, which was what King Nantian called him when he was a child. Decades have passed in the blink of an eye. It's just that they are no longer the brothers and sisters they used to be.

"Brother Huang, don't be like this, tell me the truth, the Emperor of the Great Zhou will definitely be able to understand."

"Qingluan is still waiting for me to see her, if she knows the news that I broke my leg. She must be very sad. I'm just this one daughter. How dare she be left alone and worried about me in a foreign country. ”

Every time Nantian Wang said a word, he needed to breathe a sigh of relief. Speaking of emotion, there were more and more tears in the corners of his eyes, and the big ones smashed on the brocade quilt. He grabbed the Regent's hand and looked helpless like an old child asking for help. It's no longer in high spirits.

Thinking of the words of the imperial doctor just now, the regent gently placed his other hand on his hand, and had a new plan in his heart. soothed: "Then since that's the case, let's hide it, I don't know if Brother Wang, you are willing to let me travel for you." After all, the emperor of a country should still sit in the royal city. ”

Finally waited for his words, and King Nantian gradually cried: "Zhi'er is really willing to go?" ”

At this time, a little eunuch came in from outside the hall, carefully holding a wooden plate, and on the wooden plate, there was a bowl of black medicinal soup.

King Lantian didn't need to look at it to know that it was the bowl of medicine that he had been drinking for three years in order to cure his illness.

"Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."

The regent withdrew his hand, personally brought the bowl of medicine, picked up the wooden spoon, and brought it to the mouth of King Nantian: "It is the duty of a courtier to relieve His Majesty's worries and difficulties. Brother Wang, let's drink the medicine first. ”

King Nantian glanced at him with a grateful gaze, and as always, quickly swallowed the medicine.

The bitterness welled up in my throat, and my nausea was endured.

Anyway, I've been eating it for three years, and it's not bad for this day. Only, as long as tomorrow he embarks on the road to Da Zhou. It's going to be over soon.

"What does Brother Wang want to do with Zhuang Liancheng?" The regent finished feeding the medicine with ease, turned the medicine bowl and put it back on the tray, looking at the medicine bowl that was already empty, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Nantian Wang closed his eyes and half-lay down for a while, relieved his strength, and then said:

"Master Zhuang didn't make any mistakes, I was careless."

Lord Zhuang, who was still kneeling outside the tent, seemed to hear hope, and his ears were pricked up. Your Majesty has always been soft-hearted, maybe you can spare him this time!

Sure enough, it was expected, his imperial brother was always so soft-hearted. It is because of such soft-heartedness that Nantian has become like this. It is because of such cowardice that Nantian is only a small border country.

The diligent king turned his head violently, and a fierce flash flashed in his eyes:

"As a courtier, it was his biggest mistake not to protect Brother Wang."

Nantian Wang's eyes, which had already been closed, suddenly opened, and he was a little frightened: "Since this is the case, it is up to you to deal with it." Zhi'er, I'm a little tired. ”

The regent stood up and saluted slightly:

"Brother Wang, rest. Wechen retired. ”
