Chapter 31: Needlework and Calligraphy

Lin Ye was ridiculed by Xiao Mu, and he was naturally very unhappy, but there was nothing to refute, because Lin Ye's needlework was indeed very poor, and it may not be particularly appropriate to describe it as very poor, in fact, Lin Ye had never done needlework. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Queen Zhou's needlework girl who was possessed by Lin Kuo was naturally quite good, but after Lin O came, there were only some memories of needlework left, and as for letting Lin O really do it, it was completely impossible. Lin Yi found that he was only able to do it on paper in this regard, just like the state of the martial arts hero in the martial arts drama after his martial arts were abolished.

As for saying two technical terms about needlework or something to scare Xiao Mu, it is no problem at all, Lin Yi thinks that Xiao Mu, as a modern person, at least relative to the modern people of the Ming Dynasty, is also a man, and it is impossible to have any attainments in needlework, unless Xiao Mu is that kind of perverted sissy, but this seems unlikely.

It just scared Xiao Mu, but now it's enjoyable, but this will make Xiao Mu mistakenly think that he is really good at needlework, and if he brings something for him to sew for him in the future, he will have to rack his brains to find a reason to refuse. Therefore, in order to avoid possible troubles in the future, it is better to nip the troubles in the bud at this time, and Lin Yi decided not to be exhausted in this aspect of needlework.

"Hey, let's get down to business, do you remember why you had to figure out how to deal with these eunuch leaders in the first place?" Lin Yi patted Xiao Mu and asked.

"Of course I remember, isn't it because the pardon with them will make the world cold and disappointed, and when the time comes, the public will be angry, and there will be no way to control public opinion." Xiao Mu replied as a matter of course, thinking in his heart at the same time what Lin Yi was crazy about.

"So, if you adopt this so-called fair disposition, you are not afraid that public opinion will get out of control?" Lin asked rhetorically.

"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Mu also seemed to feel something, but it seemed to be separated by a layer of window paper, which made Xiao Mu feel very uncomfortable. This feeling is like wanting to have an uncomfortable nose and want to sneeze, but it has been brewing for a long time, but it can't be hit.

Fortunately, Lin Yi quickly pierced this layer of window paper and helped Xiao Mu get rid of the pain, "You think, the influential courtiers in the court are all those Wenyuan Qingliu, and the concept of 'Wengui and Wuli' must be even more ingrained in their minds." Although those three civil officials are rebellious eunuchs in the eyes of the Qinglius, they are also scholars, and they don't know how much higher they are than Xu Xianchun, a martial artist, how can the treatment of a scholar be the same as that of Xu Xianchun, a martial artist? ”

Lin Yi took a sip of tea and continued to analyze: "If you do the same treatment to all of them, it will simply be an insult to the scholars in the world, and it is an absurd act that ignores the way of Confucius and Mencius and insults Swen. How can these scholars give up? Your image of the emperor must be gone, and the snowflakes that bother you are simply light, and it is inevitable that all the scholars will run outside the palace gate to make trouble, and there will be people who will smear and insult you in the future history, after all, history is all written by scholars. ”

As soon as he heard that Emperor Chongzhen's reputation might be damaged, Xiao Mu immediately paid attention to it, Xiao Mu thought that he had borrowed someone else's body, and he would never let his reputation be ruined by himself.

"What else do you have to analyze? Hurry on. Xiao Mu asked eagerly.

"Moreover, Xu Xianchun is still the direct murderer of Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others, if he can survive, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely be disappointed, and Cao Huachun's errand will definitely not be able to continue. If you don't do it well, public opinion is in an uproar, and you don't have a good way to appease people's hearts, in order to maintain your reputation as the emperor, maybe you can only find a scapegoat and pull Cao Huachun out to open the knife, and then Cao Huachun will become a remnant of the eunuch party even if he is not a remnant of the eunuch party. ”

After listening to Lin Yi's analysis, Xiao Mu was already in a cold sweat at this time, it turned out that this political matter was so complicated, and there would be immeasurable consequences if he was not careful.

"So, what should I do about this? Do you have any good ideas? Xiao Mu then asked.

"The most appropriate way to deal with it is to do it according to the plan proposed by Luo Yangxing, so that no one will be dissatisfied." Lin Yi replied without thinking.

"Is there really no fair solution?" Xiao Mu muttered.

After a period of silence, Lin Yi said: "If you really want to pursue fairness, then you can only execute Gu Bingqian and the three civil officials and Xu Xianchun together, although this decision is somewhat contrary to the 'noble and lowly' set, but after all, they are all Wei rebels, and all of them are considered capital crimes, which is also reasonable, and no one will have an opinion." ”

"It's done this way, it's fair, but it's going to kill three more people, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, a thought will decide the life and death of three people, this emperor is really not an ordinary person..."Xiao Mu said, "And now I'm implementing the policy of amnesty to the world, killing them all, this is also a bit of a contradiction, isn't there a way to do both?" ”

"Oh, you're really a Virgo obsessive-compulsive disorder, it doesn't work like this, it doesn't work like that, anyway, I don't have any good way, you're so smart, find the best of both worlds yourself. I told you so many things about killing people in my dignity, and now I am very tired and want to rest......" Lin Yi directly said that he would stop picking and quitting, and gave Xiao Mu an eviction order.

Xiao Mu came out of Lin Yi with a helpless face, and thought about it for a long time with a frown, but he didn't think of any so-called best of both worlds. Thinking that Lin Ye's Lai Zongdao and the others just now would also give the same suggestion as Luo Yangxing, although he felt that what Lin Ye said was very right, Xiao Mu still decided to invite a few elders from Zong Dao to come to Zongdao and ask their opinions.

After waiting for a while, Lai Zongdao led a few pavilion elders to come.

"The ministers knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

……

After sending Lai Zongdao and the others away, Xiao Mu found that it was completely redundant to bring them in, and their views on Lai Zongdao were no different from those analyzed by Lin Yi.

"It seems that there really isn't a good way to do it." Xiao Mu sighed, and decided not to think about this matter for a while, so as to increase his troubles, find something else to do, and distract himself by the way.

I heard that writing can calm people's mood, Xiao Mu asked Wang Chengen to prepare the four treasures of the study, and at the same time, he can also practice his own calligraphy, although Xiao Mu's calligraphy is much stronger than the two words "apple" written by Lin Yi in Daxing, but in this Ming Dynasty society that pays attention to words such as his people, Xiao Mu's calligraphy level is far less than any reading and writing, and wants to gain fame.

Xiao Mu thought that it was necessary to practice calligraphy well, after all, as an emperor, if he couldn't even write well with a brush, wouldn't it damage Emperor Chongzhen's reputation?

So in line with the attitude of being responsible for Chongzhen, Xiao Mu found an excellent reason to avoid the problem, picked up the pen, and practiced calligraphy under the service of Wang Chengen.

In fact, Xiao Mu's calligraphy is no different from Lin Ye's needlework, both of them also have the memory of a host who has been crossed - the difference is only Lin Ye's complete memory and Xiao Mu's broken memory, and they are also both when they really do it, they can't do it at all, just like a composer who is proficient in music theory, can write a lot of exquisite songs, but the five notes are not complete.

I don't know if Wang Chengen can write, but thinking that Wang Chengen, as a eunuch with a relatively high status, should still be able to read and write, so Xiao Mu began to find a reason for himself in order not to show flaws in front of him: "Since I ascended the throne, I haven't had time to practice writing for a long time, but I didn't expect to be so unfamiliar." ”

In fact, Xiao Mu thought a little too much, of course Wang Chengen did not have any courage to doubt the identity of his master, and in this Ming Dynasty, there was no concept of "crossing", so even if Xiao Mu wrote something like a ghost painting, Wang Chengen would not have any thoughts that he should not have as a slave.

Of course, Xiao Mu didn't know, and while writing, he was talking to Wang Chengen, not letting him focus on the words he wrote: "Big companion also knows the way of calligraphy?" ”

However, Xiao Mu's purpose was not achieved at all, but played the opposite role.

"The master should not laugh at the slave and the maid, how dare the slave and the slave be compared with the master?" Wang Chengen said with a smile, while looking at Xiao Mu's "masterpiece", ready to search his intestines and scrape his belly, and find a few words to praise, but after reading Xiao Mu's words, Wang Chengen didn't know what to say.

"It seems that the emperor's calligraphy level has reached a certain level, and the grass in the line is no longer something that I, a slave, can understand, if Cao Huachun and Cao's father-in-law are here, I will be able to understand the subtleties of the emperor's words." Wang Chengen pondered for a long time, and finally said such a sentence to ease the embarrassing atmosphere.

"Haha, don't worry about it, I know my own words, it's really bad." Xiao Mu didn't care, and continued to ask, "You mean that Cao Huachun's calligraphy attainments are extremely high?" Do any of your eunuchs who are on errand in the palace know calligraphy? ”

"Master, don't look at Gonggong Cao as a eunuch like a slave, but Gonggong Cao is much stronger than a slave, poetry, writing, painting, and everything, either the slave and the maid deliberately play right and wrong, or the ministers of the dynasty are not necessarily stronger than Gonggong Cao." Wang Chengen said with a smile, after all, there is a powerful person in the eunuch team, and Wang Chengen also feels that there is light on his face.

"You go on." Xiao Mu felt as if he had an inspiration, and hurriedly asked Wang Chengen to continue.
