Zhao Yingluo listened to the words, got up, and said to Zheng Zhi: "Yingluo is polite!" ”

Zhao Yingluo is a girl under traditional education, and she is meticulous in etiquette. It stands to reason that Zheng Zhi should salute Zhao Yingluo first, but Zhao Yingluo has heard several masterpieces of Zheng Zhi, and he still has a good impression of Zheng Zhi in his heart, so he salutes first.

"Meet Her Royal Highness Emperor Shunde." Zheng Zhi also bowed his hand to worship.

Zhao Ji opened his mouth and said: "Zheng Qing, if you have nothing to do today, you can just wave a few times. If you get a good work, Zheng Qing will write another song. I can also hear your lyrics in front of Yingluo's head, and I happened to meet it today, and I will guide you one or two. ”

Zheng Zhi was helpless when he heard this, and only said: "I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the ministers to produce good works, and they are not worthy of the beauty of Your Majesty's Danqing." ”

Zheng Zhi naturally had rejection in his heart, and just now he heard Zhao Ji say that he would remove his armor after the end of the war, and he was unhappy in his heart.

"Haha... Clumsy can also be, you are some, do whatever you want to meet the joy of the landscape. Zhao Ji didn't care about this, and he also had his own cognition of Zheng Zhi's level of lyrics in his heart.

Liang Shicheng saw the opportunity and hurriedly began to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Zheng Zhi had something to say in his heart, thought for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has some opinions on a matter, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

Zhao Ji was closing his sleeves so as not to get stained with ink when he was painting, and when he heard Zheng Zhi's words, he replied easily: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"The minister thinks that it is inappropriate for the strong army in the northwest to remove their armor." Zheng Zhi still wanted to talk about this matter after all.

Zhao Ji was stunned when he heard this, this kind of thing is related to the foundation of the Zhao family, and it is also the consensus of the court, he has never heard the words of opposition, so he said: "Let's talk about it." ”

Zhao Ji really asked Zheng Zhi to talk about it, and naturally he wouldn't really think about it at this time. Where did the Great Song Dynasty tolerate others to have strong military strength.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I think that if this battle is won, although the party is destroyed, it seems that the northwest will be pacified. However, the party members are not of our race, and they must have different intentions. If there is no strong army in the northwest to suppress it, there will inevitably be another rebellion, which is one of them. Second, if the Western Xia is all returned to the Great Song Dynasty, then our Great Song Dynasty will be bordered by the Huangtou Hui, Caotou Tatars, Xizhou Uighurs and other tribes, as well as the Tibetan tribes on the side, these tribes are extremely powerful, and there will inevitably be wars. Your Majesty, when you open up your territory and expand your territory, you must have strong troops to suppress foreign races in order to defend your territory. Zheng Zhi said something, and he also hoped to persuade Zhao Ji to keep some of the soldiers of the Western Army. I hope that at least those comrades in the Western Army will have a good life.

The Huangtou Uighurs and the Caotou Tatars are both ethnic minorities near Jiuquan in Gansu Province, the Uighurs are naturally an ethnic minority in Xinjiang, and the Tibetans are ethnic minorities in various parts of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The forces are not small.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he just nodded and replied, "Well, this matter will be discussed after the war is settled." ”

Zheng Zhi had nothing to say, so he had to stand behind him and wait for Zhao Ji to paint, and the content of the painting was still a scene of Genyue.

Although it is late autumn, Gen Yue is still lush and green, not at all gloomy, the evergreen trees are not withering, and there are all kinds of blooming flowers. Humanity is the spring flowers, in fact, there are many flowers in autumn, this Gen Yue is like a botanical garden, there is everything.

Zhao Ji chatted with Zhao Yingluo while painting, and the content taught Zhao Yingluo painting skills. One of the two teaches well, the other is keen and studious, and the picture is really very warm.

A picture of Danqing is also very consistent with Zhao Ji's mood, with good scenery of flowers and trees.

Zhao Ji turned around and said, "Zheng Qing, and fill in a poem." ”

Zheng Zhi's mood is not as good as Zhao Ji, naturally he is unhappy, looking at this piece of plants, trees, flowers and birds, he can't think of any words that meet the idea.

After a while, he only said: "Your Majesty, the minister is stupid, and he really can't think of good words." ”

Zhao Yingluo listened to the words, pursed the corners of her lips, and said: "The words of plants, trees, flowers and plants are the best works, how can you not write, Zhou Duwen often says that you have great talents, which are rare in the world." How can you not make a song of grass and trees? Isn't it because you don't want to write lyrics for my father? ”

Zhao Yingluo, who grew up in the royal family, really lacks a cultivation of people and things, and may also be young, and his words are full of edges and corners. Thinking about it bluntly, I thought that Zheng Zhi was unwilling to write lyrics for Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji laughed when he heard this, and said: "It's okay, it's good or bad for others to judge, and let's make a song." ”

Zheng Zhi heard this, and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister has a song, but it does not fit the topic, I don't know if Your Majesty is willing to listen to it." ”

Zhao Ji listened to this, raised his hand lightly, and motioned for Zheng Zhizhi to speak.

Zheng Zhi didn't wait much, and said: "The word "minister" is made by the wife of a military man under his command, please taste it:

When is this hatred gone?

Dripping empty steps, cold and rain

Funeral flower weather

Three years of dreams

It's a dream that should wake up for a long time

The material is also sense, and the world is tasteless

Not as dusty as the night platform

Deserted and sorrowful

The hairpin made a covenant and abandoned it

If there is a Pisces in Chongquan

I know him well, and the years are bitter and happy

With whom to lean on

I turned from midnight to side

Bear to listen to the Hunan strings

When it is over, he knows it

I'm afraid that both of them will die

Again, the moon is left in the wind

Tears are gone, and the paper is ashes"

The song "Golden Wisp Song" expresses the thoughts of the deceased. It was originally made by Nalan Xingde to mourn his deceased wife, but it was tender and compassionate, more like a woman's handwriting, deep and meaningful, the pain of lovesickness, and the tears were all dead.

Don't you hear it, drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times.

Zheng Zhi used this song to express his wife's longing for her husband who was shrouded in horse-leather, which is really appropriate.

Zhao Yingluo had already burst into tears when she heard it, a sense of sorrow, yin and yang lovesickness. Such feelings are the most touching of a girl's mind.

After hearing this, Zhao Ji sighed and asked, "Is it really the wife of the military under your command?" ”

"The soldiers died on the battlefield, and the survivors were broken. Every time the minister saw this situation, he was moved to tears. What does it matter who does it? Zheng Zhi replied.

The people are suffering, and Zhao Ji, who has never been out of Bianliang for half a step, knows about it. Zheng Zhi wants to listen to this genius and tell him in the way of a literati.

"Good words, wonderful words! I know very well that the people are suffering, but the cause of my family and country has not been promoted, and the strong enemies in the north are waiting, and the military affairs are helpless. When Yanyun is recovered and a peaceful and prosperous world is achieved, the people can enjoy their families in peace. Zhao Ji obviously felt something in his heart, but although he knew the suffering of the people, how could he really know the suffering of the people.

"Your Majesty, the military is helpless, but these soldiers who were born and died can't abandon them like a shoe, it's too chilling." Zheng Zhi still has to express this meaning after all.

Zhao Ji also understood at this time, looked at Zheng Zhi, frowned slightly, and replied: "Zheng Qing has good intentions, I already know." This is an excellent word, and it is sung by the servants. ”

Zheng Zhi heard Zhao Ji's words, and felt a chill, what can he do?

Zhao Yingluo listened to the words, wiped the tears on her cheeks, and said: "Father, I won't invite the servants, let's sing it." Erchen happened to learn the rhythm of Master Su's "Milk Yanfei" in front of his head. ”

The word plate of "Golden Wisp Song", which was the first to include "Dongpo Yuefu", is the earliest word of Su Shi that began to be handed down, originally called "He Bridegroom", because Su Shi's "He Bridegroom" has a sentence "Milk Yan Fei". The name of this brand is also known as "Milk Swallow Feihua House". When Ye Mengde, a bachelor of Hanlin in the court, filled in this word card again, there was a sentence in it, "Who sings the golden thread for me". This brand is also known as "Golden Wisp Song".

"Yingluo sings very well, and I also listen to Yingluo's piano skills and singing voice to see if she has improved." Zhao Ji is happy, having such a daughter is also Zhao Ji's enjoyment.

Zheng Zhi considered many things from the perspective of a soldier, and also recited this poem, and at this time, he was probably dead to Zhao Ji. I didn't have much of an appreciation for the princess's singing.

Liang Shicheng arranged a few Yaoqin. Zhao Yingluo began to play the qin and sing, and her skills were not bad, but she lacked the extreme sorrow in the song. Sorrow that is not truly felt will not achieve a moving effect in the end.

Zhao Yingluo went to see Zheng Zhi while singing, but Zheng Zhi didn't feel the slightest.

After singing the song, Zhao Ji picked up the pen and wrote the words and sentences on the rice paper, and then handed them to Zhao Yingluo, and said with a smile: "Yingluo is good at playing and singing, so I will reward you with this word." ”

"Thank you, Father." Zhao Yingluo took the lyrics and asked again: "Can the sons and daughters transfer the things rewarded by the father and emperor to others?" ”

While speaking, Zhao Yingluo also secretly glanced at Zheng Zhi.

"It's yours when it's given to you, and you can give it to whoever you want." As he spoke, Zhao Ji took the seal into his arms.

"Erchen wants to transfer this adverb to Zheng Zhi, this song was originally composed by him, and it is just right to give it to him." Zhao Yingluo continued.

While speaking, Zhao Yingluo walked up to Zheng Zhi with this good character with a thin gold body and handed it over.

After Zheng Zhi took it, he said, "Thank you, Your Highness Emperor Ji." ”

Zheng Zhi thanked him, Zhao Yingluo smiled, and returned to his seat and sat down.

Zheng Zhi didn't want to stay longer, and said: "Your Majesty, it's not too early, the minister just entered Tokyo today, and he has to settle the matter with the Privy Council, so he will retire first." ”

Zhao Ji waved his hand. Zheng Zhi slowly withdrew from the tower.

As soon as Zheng Zhi left, Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Yingluo and said: "Yingluo, this Zheng Zhi already has a wife and concubine, which is not suitable. ”

Zhao Yingluo's face turned red when she heard this, and she hurriedly said: "What did my father say, my son didn't think much about it." Father, don't talk nonsense. ”

Zhao Ji saw Zhao Yingluo's blushing appearance, and he also felt funny, he had never seen his daughter look like this, and said with a smile: "Haha... Just don't think about it. It is impossible for the royal emperor to marry someone who has a wife. Zheng Zhi is good at fighting, and he will go to the battlefield more in the future, which is even more inappropriate. Zhao Ji finally expressed his inner selfishness. It is even more inappropriate to say that Zheng Zhi is on the battlefield, and the implication is that the soldiers will inevitably die in battle.

"Father, you said that this Zheng Zhi is so talented, why do you want to be a martial artist who leads the troops, it's really a pity." Zhao Yingluo said another pity, this pity's tone is different from the last time. Last time, I just said it was a pity, but this time it was a pity with personal feelings.

"When the court employs people, it is natural that those who are good at fighting will go into battle. This Zheng Zhi is also a party strategy, what is the pity. Zhao Ji replied casually, and looked up again.
