In March, the cold season of spring has completely passed, replaced by spring flowers, and the four sides are full of greenery. In the suburbs of the capital, the favorite places of literati and artists were filled with countless people who went out to enjoy the fun, some were freshly dressed and angry, some were shabby, some were prostitutes and friends, and some were alone. However, Xianyuan, which has been booming for nearly two years, has once again welcomed many guests, because another new play has been staged in the opera garden here. Different from those old dramas that have been played too much, this one is the same drama as the previous Jinling dream, a fold every seven days, within three days after the idle garden is staged, the opera gardens all over the city will follow, and for a while, it is a fold to beat the city to urge renewal, and countless people burst into tears in the sensational place.

In this "Tragic Song of Heshuo", Xu Xun's request is to sensationalize dog blood, and it is best to make people throb and even cry with every fold. Tang Yin directly found Kang Hai, who was originally quite interested in drama, and when he thought of the posture of Jinling Dream singing all over the city in front of him, he naturally participated in it with full attention, and now seeing the situation of this empty alley, as this author, Kang Da Zhuangyuan is naturally full of ambition, after all, he almost threw his emotions from being the champion in the past, but nowhere to extend his ambitions to Wang Yue in his pen, and Tang Yin, who is Xie Yuan, is also the same emotion.

Therefore, the officials and scholars who come to Xianyuan to see this self-proclaimed talent, or who have repeatedly failed, are the most easily impressed group of people. As for those bigwigs who didn't have time or originally disdained to watch, when the city was talking about it after two folds, they immediately thought about what this turn of public opinion meant.

When Wang Yue was removed from the title during the Chenghua period, almost no one came out to say a word of justice; During the Hongzhi period, Wang Yue was implicated by Li Guang again, so that when he died of depression, although he did not pursue his official position, he only gave the Taifu, and on the nickname, the court was also more mean. If it ends with a civil official, it should start with the word "Wen", if it is Wang Yue, who was once knighted and turned into a military minister, then it should start with the word "Wu", but the final nickname starts with the word Xiang.

If it is a military officer, it is good for the military ministers, but Wang Yue is a civil official after all, and Wen Xiang is the twenty-third class of the civil official, not to mention the word Xiangmin. As for the word Min, it should be said that it is Min; Ming Zuo has merit and is said to be sensitive; Ying is as decisive as a god; Enlightened and not sluggish; Hearing righteousness will be said to be sensitive; Talent is not sluggish; It's good to be ancient. Although it is a good word, it is not too high after all.

What's more, no one mentioned that Wang Yue Weining should be returned to the earldom.

This day is the day when the opera garden in the idle garden staged the third fold of "The Tragic Song of Heshuo". The upper and lower floors were full, and several of the best private rooms were all draped. This is already the practice of Xianyuan, although the curtain is hanging and it is impossible to see how the play on the stage is played, but everyone knows that the person sitting behind the curtain must be a big man who is inconvenient to appear in front of the stage, so except for the few people who come to this kind of place to glance at those boxes, most of the others are familiar with it. When it was time to draw the sword and swear to take the oath, the lobby on the first floor didn't know which good thing to shout loudly, and after a moment of silence, the hall was full of colorful voices for a while.

In the third box on the left on the third floor, Lin Han, who was sitting opposite Zhang Fuhua, couldn't help but whisper when he heard this voice: "Tang Bohu's play is really emotional, if we hadn't lived for a long time, knowing that although Wang Yue was outstanding but not perfect, he would have been completely fooled by such a play." Brother Gongshi, do you think Shizhen has to make such a play, what does he want to do? ”…,

"If I could know what he's thinking, would I still be sitting here?" Zhang Shihua shook his head helplessly, and then said in a low voice, "Speaking of which, when Wang Zhi fell, Wang Yue was removed from the title, and the third son was cut down. It was a full ten years after the fall of this great man, and when he came back to his seventies, he was still in his seventies, and he still reported his own grievances...... Alas! ”

Lin Han or Zhang Fuhua, all of them are people who hate the eunuch party, but now that Xu Xun has gone to the northwest, there has been a post road to deliver it back, so the erosion of the border preparations from Xuanfu Datong to Yansui and other places is clearly presented in front of the two. Thinking that Wang Yue, who was impeached and made meritorious contributions, at least he really won many battles, and even Wang Zhi, who was said to be heinous, was also quite accomplished in the war, and the two didn't know what it was like to have their hearts.

This speech, the two of them couldn't help but be a little absent-minded about the drama outside, until a folk song that was very different from the ordinary drama rap sounded, it was the tune sung by the lost people in captivity, and occasionally those homesick sentences of "looking at the bright moon every year, when will I see my hometown", they were suddenly shocked, and after glancing at each other, Zhang Fuhua finally couldn't help but walk to the door and open a curtain. But I saw that on the seats in those boxes with the curtain wide open, all of them had faces as heavy as water. As for the seats on the ground floor, there were even some young gentlemen who showed up to watch the play clenched their fists.

Sensing that Lin Han was also behind him, he sighed and said: "After Wang Yue's battle back then, the captives did not dare to live in the Hetao for many years, and the three sides of Shaanxi were relieved a little, if only at that time could take the opportunity to take back the Hetao......"

At that time, no one wanted Wang Zhijian to work on the side, and even Wang Yue was annoyed by the hated house and Wu, how many thought of it so much?

It wasn't until this fold came to an end in the wind and sand that the atmosphere of silence just now dissipated suddenly, and with the applause of three or five people, the hall applauded for a while. Worried about leaving at this time, it would inevitably be eventful, Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua couldn't help but sit silently in the box and didn't move immediately, as the noise below gradually dissipated, knowing that everyone should have walked almost, they got up one after another, but before they reached the curtain, they heard a familiar voice outside.

"Kang Hai, Tang Yin, this play is well written!"

It's not ...... Today's Zhengde Tianzi?

Lin Han and Zhang Shihua glanced at each other and stood still for a while. I only heard Zhu Houzhao's voice getting closer, as if he was talking in the corridor in front of him.

"No one is perfect, why is it because Wang Yue and Wang Zhi and Li Guang have some connections to the end, and there is not even a person who speaks fairly? I don't fight, I have to blame others behind my back, and there are four words on the excerpt that Xu Xun sent before, that is, put yourself in your shoes! Gai Ming'er should take turns to let some officials go to the front line in the northwest to experience the hard work of the soldiers, so that they don't talk about it and accuse others of taking the brings! ”

As soon as these words came out, Lin Han forgot for a moment that he and Zhang Shihua also quietly came to watch such a scene, and immediately opened the curtain and said: "Absolutely not! ”

Seeing that the group of people over there looked towards him, especially Zhu Houzhao's wide-eyed appearance, he realized that he was a little reckless. However, at this moment, he had to calm down and step forward calmly, just arching his hand slightly at Zhu Houzhao.

"Speaking and saying things is originally a duty, if it is such a toss, others will inevitably accuse the useless people today." …,

Zhu Houzhao saw Zhang Shihua behind Lin Han, and was about to bow his head to say hello, but when he heard Lin Han's words, he couldn't help but turn dark, and then snorted lightly: "Just because you want to have a belly today, you have to listen to these people's nonsense?" You know, when the emperor lives in the palace, he can't see what the outside is like, so he has to open up his words, but one or two seven or eight on the road are all public words, but they are still biased, and they are all untrue words in the ears like this, so what else is there to hear! In the past, new recruits had to be tried in the Six Metropolitan Procuratorates, and the selection of foreign officials also had to be studied first, so it was also the right thing for them to go to the northwest to have a look, if they couldn't stand it for a month or two, this official would not have to be an official! ”

Lin Han wanted to say more, but he noticed that Zhang Shihua pulled his sleeve, and he couldn't help but be silent at his age. At this time, Zhang Shihua glanced at the already empty opera garden, and said softly: "The matter is very important, please go back and discuss it first, and then implement it slowly." ”

"I'm not a child, of course I know that!"

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand angrily, and then said with great interest: "I still want to go to Xing'an Bo Mansion to have a look, do you two want to follow?" ”

Xu Xun was not there, and the little emperor actually wanted to go to Xing'anbo Mansion, Lin Han and Zhang Shihua couldn't help but be a little surprised. However, it is one thing for them to have a close friendship with Xu Xun, and it is another thing to go to join in the fun with the little emperor at this time. Immediately, Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua politely declined under the pretext of being busy at the same time, and after seeing Tang Yin and Kang Hai saluting, the two of them hugged Zhu Houzhao on the left and right, plus a few attendants who followed, and went downstairs like this, and they couldn't help but glance at each other again.

Just now, the little emperor named the names of two people, so it is not only Tang Yin who is making up this drama this time, but also Kang Hai, the champion? Such a pair...... No wonder they could write such a play!

Just in front of the two bigwigs with extraordinary qualifications, Kang Hai and Tang Yin were silent, and it was not until they came out of the idle garden that the two people who followed Zhu Houzhao breathed a long sigh of relief. It can be said that it is a matter of current affairs

The play is not easy to write, although there is no literary prison in the Ming Dynasty, but the four words of the government and government are enough to make them fall into the quagmire and get out, if it weren't for Xu Xun behind them, and even the emperor to support them, they wouldn't be able to write like that

Fearful and passionate words come.

And Zhu Houzhao seemed to have eyes behind his back, and suddenly turned his head like this: "What are you afraid of, Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua are all Xu Xun's people, and they are fair, what."

I can't blame you for this play. If you see that their hearts are weak, what will you do when the time comes? Tang Yin is okay, Kang Hai, you have to show up every day in the court......

By the way, do you really plan to announce that you wrote this play directly at the end? ”

"Yes, if others can't tolerate it, I'll just resign!"

Kang Hai's categorical words made Zhu Houzhao's eyes light up, but then he snorted coldly angrily; "I'm afraid of those inward-looking guys! Something happened, I'll carry it for you! ”

The little emperor revealed such a domineering and outward self-proclaimed appearance, and as soon as these words came out, Tang Yin suddenly laughed dumbly. It wasn't until Zhu Houzhao was surrounded by people and reluctantly got into the carriage that he said to Kang Hai: "To Brother Shanxian, I am regarded by others anyway."

As a private person of Pingbeibo, but it's you, it's better to think about it when you look back. After all, compared with Cheng Shangshu's imperial examination fraud case back then, Wang Taifu's unjust case probably only involved more people......"

"It's okay, anyway, I didn't invite Lord Yuanfu to see him, and there are even more people in the court who can't get used to us being grandstanding, and there will be more of this one." Kang Hai laughed, and then said word by word, "The more people cover it, the more it must be publicized by everyone!" In this world, there is still justice after all! ”…,

Although Tang Yin nodded in agreement, another thought was born in his heart - to preach justice...... First of all, you have to hold on to power!

After all, Kang Hai still has an official body, and it is already outrageous to ask for leave to accompany Zhu Houzhao to watch the play, and he has to sneak back to the Hanlin Courtyard at this time. And Tang Yin naturally accompanied Zhu Houzhao straight to Xing'an Bo Mansion. However, the group stopped at the West Point Gate

Next, as soon as the porter who opened his head and probed his head saw Tang Yin go to the car to help Zhu Houzhao down, he was immediately stunned, and then hurriedly turned around and shouted. After a while, Jin Liufang, who was sweating profusely, came out.

"Steward Jin, it's not a hot day yet, why do you look so sweaty?"

"This ......" Jin Liu glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and then at Tang Yin, who was asking, and only after a long time did he turn his heart and whisper, "Although it is disrespectful, the little one has to ask the emperor to go back to the palace first, my young grandmother...... I'm afraid I'm going to give birth! ”

Although he knew that Shen Yue's quasi-date was about the next few days, Wen Po had been invited to the mansion early to settle down, but Tang Yin really didn't expect such a clever method, and he was stunned for a while. However, after Zhu Houzhao was stunned for the first time,

Immediately, he showed a happy expression, and with a wave of his hand, he said categorically: "What is this, it is better to come early than to come by coincidence, since I have just caught up, what else can I mention to go back." Xu Xun, who is a father, is not here, I am correct

I can help him watch it, and tell him when he comes back! What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and lead the way! ”

The little emperor even had to join in this kind of excitement, Jin Liu simply felt that the whole person was going to be stupid. However, seeing that Tang Yin had spoken hard and persuaded him a few more words, Zhu Houzhao insisted on not listening, so he had to welcome people in with bitterness, and hurriedly sent people inside to report the news. It didn't take long for Xu Liang to run out of the wind under his feet.

"The Emperor's ......"

"Did you give birth?"

Being asked by the little emperor like this, Xu Liang only felt that he didn't know how to answer. After a while, he coughed dryly and said, "Not so fast, Your Majesty, this is really not what you imagined...... Ahem, at least one or two hours, more than three or four, five or six hours, or even a whole night and a whole day, you better go back first! ”

"It's okay, I'm okay today, I have time, it's a big deal that I won't go back to the palace at night!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said quite arrogantly, "I have never seen what a child looks like, no matter whether Xu Xun's first child is a son or a daughter, I have to take a good look at it, and I can have some experience in another day!" ”

What are these words, what does the dignified son of heaven want this experience for, do you have to go to deliver the concubine in the future?

Slander is slander, but the little emperor has a posture of being stunned, and Xu Liang can only accept this reality helplessly. Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao still knew that the woman's delivery room could not enter, so he let Xu Liang go back to watch, and he only kept Tang Yin in Xu Xun's outer study while flipping through the book, while waiting patiently, but from time to time he instructed the accompanying Ruisheng to go inside to inquire about the news.

Poor Latham didn't know how many times he ran back and forth, and when he stepped into the familiar yard again in the evening, he suddenly heard a loud baby cry, and was immediately overjoyed after being stunned, and rushed to the door like a gust of wind, almost colliding with Xu Liang, who was forced to wait in the side room by Li Qingniang, and rushed out in a hurry at this time.

Not long after, the door of the delivery room was opened, but it was Li Qingniang who came out with a swaddling baby on her face. As soon as they saw this, both of them knew that they must be safe, and they were all relieved. And Latham Rayson, who had run so much that his legs were weak, breathed a long sigh of relief, and if Xu Liang hadn't helped him, he would have almost sat on the ground. …,

Li Qingniang couldn't help but laugh when she saw that these two of them couldn't care about asking whether they were sons or daughters, and then coughed and said, "Congratulations to Xing Anbo, the young grandmother gave birth to a beautiful daughter!" ”

"Is it a girl?" Xu Liang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "This stinky boy, Cheng Tian said that he wanted to hug a girl first, but this time it made his wish come true!" I just hope that this girl is more shrewd than his father, and let that stinky boy suffer a big loss! ”

Although he didn't know what Xu Liang meant by this, Latham immediately stepped forward to look at the little child in the swaddling clothes. Seeing that his face was still wrinkled, his eyes were slightly squinted, as if he was a little listless, he suddenly became a little nervous. When Li Qingniang handed over the child to Xu Liang, he hurriedly asked, "Why are your eyes closed?" Doesn't it mean that children can open their eyes when they are born? ”

"It's okay, just now Mrs. Wen said that the child is healthy and healthy, but she has tossed her mother a lot!" Li Qingniang saw that Ruisheng was still staring at the child in Xu Liang's hand, and suddenly said with a smile, "Why don't you go and hug it too?" ”

"I ...... I can't! Latham quickly shook his hand again and again, shaking his head like a rattle, "I can't do it, I really can't do it!" There have always been people in the palace who say that it is ominous for eunuchs to hold children, and I will not hold children, in case I fall and touch ......"

", where are there so many taboos!" Xu Liang handed over the swaddling clothes with a smile, and seeing that Ruisheng was at a loss for a while, he said angrily, "If Xu Xun is here, he will definitely not care about this, just be careful!" ”

Latham took the child stiffly, as if a small movement had startled the child, and his face was more nervous than ever. After his father was ruthless, he didn't understand what it meant at first, but gradually

Gradually, he understood that he was destined to be alone. Especially in the palace, I am used to seeing those messy things behind my back, and I also know that whether it is Liu Jin or Gu Dayong Zhang Yong, they often have a few women at home, though

It's not like a eunuch who puts a lady outside, but the meaning is similar. However, no matter how good it seems to be a husband and a wife, it is impossible to keep his own children after all.

However, at this time

At this moment, he is like a father, holding such a baby, holding such a child who is expected from birth, and the agitated mood can't even be expressed. When I saw her open her eyes slightly and look at herself,

As if he was stunned, he suddenly cried out again, startled, he hurriedly stuffed the child directly back into Xu Liang's hand, and rushed out without looking back.

"I'm going to report to the emperor!"

Shen Yue in the delivery room still hadn't recovered from the weakness after exerting her strength, hearing the messy sound outside, followed by the child's cry, she supported and wanted to sit up, but was hurriedly pressed back by Ruyi, so she could only listen to the joyful sound outside, and finally clenched her fists.

"I've survived such a painful thing, and you must hold it up for me outside!"

"Miss, what are you muttering here!" Ruyi couldn't help but reveal his old name again, wiped his sweat with a handkerchief for Shen Yue, and then said with a smile, "If the young master knew that he had a daughter, he would not know how to be happy!" ”

"Yes, yes, the father in the world who is looking forward to giving birth to a daughter is more than giving birth to a son, and he is probably the only one who ......" Shen Yue pursed his lips angrily, and then said with a worried face, "This guy, he still didn't rush back after all......"

Although Yu Li disagreed, Zhu Houzhao finally broke in. Faced with this situation, Xu Liang had no choice but to step forward with the child in his arms, and then looked at the little emperor in horror and couldn't help but say that Zhongshou came to snatch the child. Seeing Zhu Houzhao clumsily hugging the swaddling clothes and smiling and reciting words, Xu Liang seemed to have an illusion.

Although it is today, there are times when this little emperor is really like a big child who has not yet grown up!

Zhu Houzhao didn't reluctantly hand over the child to Li Qingniang, who came up on the side, until he was too addicted to holding the child, thinking that this was an ordinary servant woman, and immediately asked with great interest: "By the way, is the name ready?" ”

"Before Xu Xun left, he had already prepared two names for boy and girl." Speaking of this, Xu Liang couldn't help but suspect that Xu Xun had been planning for a long time, knowing that he would not be able to come back, and he was afraid that someone would overstep him, so he even prepared this first.

Without waiting for Zhu Houzhao to ask, he said calmly, "If it is a girl, it will be named Ning, which means peace." If it is a boy, he will be named Xian, which means erudite and versatile. ”

Zhu Houzhao suddenly sighed with great regret: "I still want to choose a name for his children, but I didn't expect to be ahead of him,...... In this way, in the future, I will take this child's expression, and no one will be allowed to rob me! ”

At this moment, Xu Liang really wanted to remind him, it was okay for this boy to let the elder take the table words, but he was a granddaughter, so what would it be if the current emperor gave the table words? . ）
