241 The Emperor has built a pole

Wei Shui already knew that Zhu Houxi would react like this, and when he saw it at this time, he didn't immediately explain it to him. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info but waited for Zhu Houxi to vent his temper, and then explained to him: "Your Majesty, recognizing Emperor Xiaozong as your imperial examination is not acknowledging that you are the successor to him, for example, in the "Five Classics of Justice", Kong Yingda wrote about the sentence "Emperor Examination Temple" in "Rites and Sacrifices", "Those who say that the emperor examines the temple are great-ancestors." For example, Kong Yingda wrote in the sentence "Fake the emperor's examination, Suiyu filial piety" in "Poems, Zhou Song, and Gong", "The examiner, the name of Shengde, can pass through his father and ancestors...... This is not the great-ancestor of "Min Yu Boy", and the Yiyun Emperor examiner, with his prose to take the righteousness of respecting the king, so the father and ancestor are all called'. Since it is said that the word imperial examination is the meaning of respecting the king, which can be said to be a great-grandfather, a grandfather, or a father, why can't it represent an uncle? His Majesty admires Emperor Xiaozong very much, so why not use the word imperial examination to express the righteousness of respecting the monarch? ”

Although Zhu Houxi felt that Wei Shui's words were a bit crooked, he unconsciously wanted to agree with his statement. But agree with him, he is not very happy, because the title of imperial examination, he only wants to use it on Emperor Xingxian, and does not want to use it for any respected uncle.

Moreover, saying so much, it is also Wei Shui's own meaning.

"Mr. Wei, if this is the case, who in the world knows my intentions? What's more, if this is a blindfold used in order to deceive the cabinet, it means that the definition cannot be advertised to the world. In that case, how many people will misunderstand what I mean? Mr. Wei, have you ever thought about this situation? ”

Zhu Houxi asked with a dark face, and Wei Shui responded calmly.

He said: "Of course, the grass people have taken into account this kind of scene, and it is precisely because they have taken it into account, so they asked His Majesty to do this." ”

Zhu Houxi was puzzled when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Wei, since this is the case, tell me your opinion." Why I did this, I have to give a satisfactory explanation. ”

Wei Shui said: "Your Majesty, you just listened to the previous part of what the grass people said, so you have such confusion. In fact, what the grass people want to say is not so simple. His Majesty wants to admit that Emperor Xiaozong is the imperial examination, and at the same time, he must add such a sentence, and after that, call Emperor Xingxian and Queen Xing as His Majesty's parents! A couple of parents can have many children, but a person can only have one pair of parents. Since you recognize that Emperor Xingxian and Queen Xing are your parents, what is Emperor Xiaozong? Imperial exam? There are many explanations for the imperial examination, and the grass people want to get it, and many people of insight must also want to get it after careful consideration. This is not to say that the grass people thought of it, and the great scholars of the cabinet could not think of it, but after His Majesty recognized that Emperor Xiaozong was the imperial exam, they would not care about some other seemingly trivial issues. What's more, Emperor Xingxian and Queen Xing were originally His Majesty's parents, and wherever this goes, His Majesty makes sense. ”

Zhu Houxi listened to Wei Shui's explanation, and the more he listened, the more excited he became, and in the end, he couldn't help but applaud the case, and said happily: "Mr. Wei, Mr. Wei, I have Mr. Wei, it is really just like King Wen of Zhou visited the Taigong, and Han Gaozu had to meet Zhang Liang." Come to think of it, Emperor Taizu and Mr. Qingtian, Emperor Chengzu and Prime Minister Yiyi, I'm afraid it's just such a monarch and minister, right? Prime Minister? Daming River ...... You are really the rare prime minister of the Ming Dynasty! In this way, as long as the cabinet acknowledges the matter of my parents, I seem to have retreated and compromised, but in fact, I have left myself with enough way to improve in the future. It's wonderful, it's wonderful! ”

Wei Shui listened, not complacent at all. Such a scene was something he had expected a long time ago, and there was nothing remarkable about it. What's more, he has the following words.

For today's correct answer, he had already begun to prepare when he showed goodwill to Yang Tinghe and proposed to cause an accident to burn down Qingning Palace. For this reason, there is no need to count how many ancient books and historical records have been read, anyway, until now, looking at the effect, it is still good. At least, Zhu Houxi looks happy, doesn't he? Moreover, if the results of the discussion are announced, Yang Tinghe and others will feel very happy for a period of time.

Everyone is happy, everyone is happy, what's not bad?

In this way, he said the next things, although it did not have much impact on the previous events, but it was a small foreshadowing, as for the effect, we have to look at it slowly.

"Your Majesty, just now the grass people said two things, and there is a third thing. This third thing is not very important, but I heard that Qingning Palace is a very important palace in this dynasty, but now it has been destroyed by fire, in the eyes of the grass people, it should be that the name is not good. The word Qingning has the meaning of calming people, but as the Son of Heaven, who does Your Majesty need to settle things for? The fire that fell from heaven to burn down the palace does not mean that it must be the fault of His Majesty or the cabinet, but in the eyes of the grass people, it may not be that the name of the palace was obtained wrong. ”

"Oh? Name? Zhu Houxi listened to it and pondered carefully, and also felt that the name of this 'Qingning' was really not very good, "Then according to Mr. Wei's meaning, what name should be changed?" ”

Wei Shui replied: "Your Majesty, the grass people have carefully pondered it, the word Qingning, the meaning of calming things and people, the reason why it was burned by Heaven is very likely that God does not want to see Your Majesty so calm people." Therefore, the grass people thought that the new name should show the majesty of His Majesty. Therefore, the grass people think that the word 'Jianji' should be used. ”

"Jianji?" Zhu Houxi pondered these two words carefully.

The reason why he wanted to put forward such a name was just that Wei Shui remembered that in the three major halls of the Forbidden City, there was an introduction that the Baohe Hall had been built under the name of the Pole Palace. The word Baohe is also a little not domineering enough, but the word Jianji is very good. Moreover, he also looked through ancient books for this purpose and found the source.

However, with Zhu Houxi's level, I am afraid that he does not need to say it too clearly.

Sure enough, after he proposed this name, it didn't take long for Zhu Houxi to guess his intentions.

"Is the word Jianji from the sentence 'Huang Jian Youji' in Jizi's "Hong Fan"? The meaning of this sentence, as I understand it, should be...... The pole refers to the middle way, the law, which means that the king must have the middle way in establishing political affairs, which is basically impartial and takes the meaning of the mean. What this sentence is meant to convey is ......"

"Your Majesty is the lord of the world, so naturally you should be majestic, and the laws designated by you are the laws that the world should abide by."
