Chapter 437: The courtiers came to dance a song
The governor of Dongchang couldn't help but be depressed, his godfather Zhang Hong died, kneeling to death, even with it, the little master-servant affection was also gone, you say, died at the gate of the palace of the Empress Dowager Rensheng, can this be liked! Then Uncle Zheng Guo rushed to the Empress Dowager Chen, and sent silver to the palace to say that it was for the Empress Dowager to repair the palace and raise her......
Zhang Whale felt more and more that the position of the eunuch of the Admiral Dongchang under his ass began to sit unsteadily, you know, after all, he is the Admiral Dongchang, not the palm seal of the celebrant eunuch, and even the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch's palm print died on the way to bring down Uncle Zheng Guo, how can people fight?
If it weren't for the fact that the previous grievances were too deep, the governor of Dongchang would have the heart to reconcile with Uncle Guo, wouldn't it be good for everyone to turn hostility into jade silk, but, after all, the previous conflict was too deep, even if he wanted to, he was afraid that Uncle Guo would be young and vigorous, and would not reconcile with him! What's more, his godfather Zhang Hong died in disguise at the hands of Uncle Guo, who is Zhang Hong? The eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant eunuch, the living bodhisattva praised by the government and the opposition, the ancestor of the inner court, and his godfather Zhang Whale, if he really wants to lick his face and go to the eggs of his uncle, I am afraid that the inner court will look down on him, and the position of this governor may be even more unreliable.
The custom of the eunuchs in the inner court to worship their godfather has a long history, and as soon as Zhang Hong dies, if he Zhang Whale has a grudge against Uncle Zheng Guo for killing his father, how can he reconcile?
Although Zhang Whale has no birds under his crotch, he is also afraid that others will kneel in front of him on the surface, but he will scold in his heart, you are an old man with no eggs.
Of course, Zhang Whale still has some confidence to continue to fight with Uncle Zheng Guo, after all, Uncle Zheng Guo is the uncle of the country, not His Majesty, if even the eunuchs of Dongchang palm prints are copied from his hands, is this world still Zhu Ming's world!
"Sort out the recitals on the Duke of Qianguo and send them to Your Majesty." Zhang Whale pondered in his heart for a long time, and then he commanded with a calm face, as soon as he came to power and sat in Dongchang, he was not favored by his godfather Zhang Hong at first, but, people. always matures once after a hurdle, although he Zhang Whale is a little older, he has really grown a little bit of ability after fighting with Uncle Zheng Guo like this.
Yunnan Yongchang lesions. This matter was known to the cabinet, so at the beginning, several cabinet elders also had the intention to kick Uncle Zheng Guo to Yunnan, but several cabinet elders also thought that it was the guards who made trouble with the soldiers' salaries and coerced a few officials. So much for.
In the Ming season, it is not uncommon to be paid as a soldier, who made Daming appear glamorous, but in fact he was so poor that he kicked Uncle Zheng Guo to Yunnan and let this kid raise military salaries, this is the crooked idea of the elders at the beginning.
But. This time the Yunnan mutiny really exceeded the expectations of the elders, and the mutineers attacked Yongchang City. He turned to Dali and began to attack the provincial capital, which was not a trivial matter, and scared Mu Changzuo, the prince of Qianguo, and Xiao Sixue, the governor of Qianguo.
I have to say, this number of roads. It's still correct, you don't see the Celestial Empire in the future, isn't the number of roads like this, first hit you, and then surrender, and the Celestial Empire will be opened in the future. Not all the troops who rebelled on the battlefield came from this route.
The mutineers really agreed to surrender, but they never thought about it, but they turned their faces, but they surrendered by fraud, and the mutineers took Wuding and Yao'an, looking at their routes, I am afraid that they are preparing to attach the puppet king of Myanmar Mang Yinglong.
This time, but it can't be hidden, the dignified soldiers of the Heavenly Dynasty are going to attach the small country of Myanmar, if this matter spreads, won't it make the world in an uproar?
Yunnan Governor Xiao Sixue is a staunch nationalist, that the imperial court at that time to treat the border pass [recruit rebellion, the bottom of the kettle salary] policy will hurt the feelings of ethnic minorities, he is Longqing five years of Jinshi origin, tired of the right squire of the Ministry of Officers and Soldiers, the general system of the two Guangxi military affairs, once played the border pass ten things, probably [disarmament, grain storage, storage of displaced people, not hegemony] these old-fashioned ways, for the mutineers to take refuge in the Burmese Wang Mang Yinglong, think that the envoy should be sent to Burma to say that it is powerful, so that he knows that I am a heavenly dynasty magnanimity, Then work together with Myanmar to exterminate this mutiny, so that there will be no dignified soldiers of the Celestial Empire to take refuge in Fanbang, and the face is also good-looking, you see, the small country of Myanmar admires the education of the Celestial Empire, and takes the initiative to ask to help us suppress the bandits.........,
And the Qianguo Gongjia is in Yunnan, Mu Changzuo does not recognize the path of Xiao Sixue, he began to trust the relationship with the inner court while writing the chapter, the relationship between the inner court, naturally the palm print eunuch Zhang Hong is the most reliable, Zhang Hong does not say it, not to mention that he has to cover with the cabinet, and then he said, the Empress Dowager Cisheng is on her birthday, if this matter is really reported, wouldn't it break the face of the Empress Dowager Cisheng, so he suppressed this matter and did not let the emperor know.
In short, if you look at the government and the opposition, it must be the world's Taiping Haiyan River Qing, if you look at the history books, it is at most the Yunnan Mutiny in a certain year, that is, these words.
If the obedient official knew about this, he would definitely scold: Mud horse, the soldiers of my Celestial Empire, do you want Burma to suppress it? You soft-boned dogs......
However, at that time, the affairs of the south were indeed not very easy to say, on the one hand, the Tusi were nominally subordinate to the Ming Dynasty, but they also had to go to eye with Burma, Vietnam and other countries, in fact, the so-called county officials were not as good as the current management, on the other hand, the ministers probably thought that Yungui was a barren land, and they were not willing to put their minds on it, and the tea and horse market was not very happy, as for the eunuchs sent by the inner court, they were better, and they also knew how to ask for money, leopards, gems, or something, and they didn't think that these places were outsiders, and we finally got out of the palace. It is also appropriate to collect some benefits for the ancestors in the palace.
This kind of sheep-herding management, resulting in the south is more complicated, on the one hand, the surrounding small countries all know that the Ming is huge and invincible, don't look at the Annan country, a dishonest by the Ming army to the blood wash, kill the head of the head, and then the king of Annan to the Ming general kneeling, kowtow a hundred times, a hundred times, in the end, it is inevitable to die, Annan has three consecutive kings folded on this.
But what about the other side! These small countries are also coveted, and the barren land that the Ming Dynasty can't look down on, in the eyes of these small countries, it is all a fat and creamy land!
In short, once the matter of the Yunnan mutiny is handed to Wanli in a real way, Wanli will definitely not be able to sit still, isn't this a slap in the face! The two major tribes of Chahar and Tumut in the north have just been honest and have come to Beijing to surrender together. Why is there such a dirty thing in the south?
If he changes to another emperor or uncle from another country, he has just settled Mongolia in the north, and he will never let him go to the south again, and he must prevent him from being weighted, which is not only the emperor's heart, but also a fist for the courtiers. For a courtier, there is no way to seal it, and there is no way to enter, which is not a good thing.
But. This is not a problem for Wanli and Uncle Zheng Guo.
Today's favor for Concubine Zheng is needless to say, and everyone in the world also sees Uncle Zheng's love house and Wu really well, and the courtiers below scolded the emperor like that. The emperor spat on himself, at most he would complain to the cabinet elders, but if he scolded Uncle Zheng, you see that the emperor immediately turned his face over, even if he didn't stick you, he would definitely have to think about giving you small shoes to wear.
Therefore, Zhang Whale expected that Long Live Lord only had to look at the recital of the Duke of Qianguo. Uncle Zheng Guo will definitely be sent to the south.
"Godfather, this ...... Can it be done? Zhang Whale's godson Zhu Caidao cautiously answered, "My son thinks it's okay!" Isn't it. Let the Imperial Horse Supervisor find out first? ”
Zhang Whale laughed twice, "Don't count on Wu Qinghou's side, let's live the Lord Fortunately, it's not like an uncle......" His laughter was like a duck, rattling, revealing a wave of contempt for Wu Qinghou's family, really, not afraid of opponents like immortals, but afraid of alliances like pigs and dogs! Look at the Wuqinghou family's little bit of interest, even the prince of Wuqinghou was kicked and exploded, and now he is miserable in the imperial horse prison. Like his uncle Li Jin, he served the Empress Dowager. …,
With this kind of pig-like alliance, can you expect them to go to the bottom? It's not a slap in the face for Uncle Zheng Guo.
"Go! The recital is in duplicate, and a copy is also sent to the cabinet, and the secret recital is directly handed to His Majesty. It's time to show off your muscles! Look at this movement, that's not ...... Hey, hey, hey! Zhang Whale sneered, his laughter became more and more sharp, his shoulders shook involuntarily, with his white face and beard, plus the python robe on his body, the cloud brocade silk tonic on his chest and back, and the makeup over his shoulders, his bearing was indeed extraordinary. This is like the posture of the big eunuch of the East Factory.
When the governor of Dongchang was playing chess, the obedient official was about to enter the palace, and this time he was not ordered to enter the palace to accompany the Empress Dowager Chen to go to the house, but to give a banquet to Wanli.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty gave a banquet, the official official name is called [big banquet], and it is divided into a large banquet, a middle banquet, a regular banquet, a small banquet, and then a lower one, it is called a meal, during which there are also singing and dancing in the teaching workshop, Guanglu Temple praises and sings, there is a set of strict procedures, and the courtiers also have strict etiquette, and if they make a mistake, they will be laughed at.
For example, in the second year of Wanli, the Korean Confucian Zhao Xian entered the Ming Dynasty as a Korean envoy, participated in the Wanli Emperor's ceremony, saw the face of the sky, and after three kowtows, [the emperor personally sent a jade sound, saying: Eat with him wine and rice], for a time, the Korean Wenlie Gong was grateful, and wrote in the book [Now the last year is twelve, and Ning Ruo is old, the jade is beautiful, and the golden voice is clear. As soon as the minister heard the chongyin, he felt the tears first, and the wish of long live the peace has intensified since then, and he kowtowed three times], all of which were written into the "Records of the Joseon Dynasty" with the name of Wenlie.
Suspicious of royal waste, on this specification, compared to the Ming Dynasty before and after, it is still frugal, after all, this is a state banquet, the Celestial Empire is not smaller than Fusang, eating two fish and two pickled radishes is called a big banquet.
After all, there are Chung Kim Hatun, the ruler of Tumut, the little prince of Buyan, the lama of Uszang, and the envoys of Ryukyu, Annam, Tulupan, Tianfang, Samarkand, Lumi, Hami, etc., and of course, the envoys of the Korean state.
Shang Bao Si set up the throne in the palace, spread the yellow lu, Jin Wuwei twenty-four people served, the teaching workshop division set up nine music songs in the hall, set up the great music outside the hall, the dance team waited outside the hall, Guanglu Temple set up the wine pavilion in the west of the throne, set up the dining pavilion in the east of the throne, set up the treasure and delicious pavilion in the east and west side of the wine and dining pavilion, the imperial feast was placed on the east and west side of the throne, the ministers were above the four grades in the palace, the five grades were entertained outside the hall, and there was a group of people waiting for the pot, wine, and food.
"Your Majesty ascends." A eunuch shouted in a long voice.
Zhu Yijun was wearing a red over-the-shoulder cloud brocade peacock feather dragon robe, his face was full of joy, and he slowly walked up to the throne from the side, and the obedient officials below looked at him dressed in red and glamorous, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes.
The so-called Manchu Dynasty Zhu Zigui, if the red is really so ugly, it will not be used as a top symbol for so many years, but this dragon robe is woven by peacock feathers, which is the [finch gold qiu] mentioned in the dream of Red Mansions, Cao Xueqin also said that this is a treasure from the Russian State of tribute, it is really a turtle, this thing is the highest unique craftsmanship of the Celestial Empire.
The clothes woven by this peacock feather are luxurious and rich and have a noble texture and beauty, in other words, under the light, you can dazzle the eyes of a blind dog, Wanli walked out in a peacock feather dragon robe, that kind of bright texture, the color on the face is lined red, the whole Guan Gong with a red face, the obedient official can't help twitching the corners of his eyes, brother-in-law is too ...... It's too sassy.
At this time, the temple priest began to play elegant music, and firecrackers were set off outside the hall.
Guanglu Siqing led a group of subordinates into the salute, sang loudly, and then, the opening of the lord poured wine, and the ministers all knelt. …,
The Jiaofang Division immediately changed the tune, it is [the song of the flame essence], the Ming Dynasty is the fire virtue, this song must be played first in various ceremonies, and then, the emperor raised his glass, the ministers praised and worshipped, and then played [the song of the imperial wind], Guanglu Temple entered the soup, praised and worshipped, the emperor raised chopsticks, and the ministers also raised chopsticks, which is called [praise and food].
Next, it is necessary to perform the dance, and at this time, according to the rules, it is necessary to present [martial dance], in the words of later generations, it is called a strong dance.
Generally speaking, at this time, it is dedicated to [the dance of pacifying the world], and then it is [the dance of appeasing the four yi], [the dance of the emperor of heaven], [the dance of the car and the book], so round by round, each song is played, a round of toasting is required, to the ninth round, play [the song of driving the six dragons], Guanglu Temple receives the royal lord, the preface receives the ministers, and enters the soup, at this time, as long as it is a person, they are all tossed hungry, and they begin to eat a big meal, the big music is played, the ministers stand up, and then sit back after thanksgiving, and the order class is served......
It's just that this is usually the rule, but today it is a little different, the obedient official stood up suddenly, walked to the hall, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, why don't you come and dance a song!" ”
His Royal Highness was in an uproar, and a cadre of ministers was eager to scold, are you a national uncle, are you qualified to call yourself a minister's brother? Still dancing? Do you know the rules?
"Duh!" Wang Xijue hurriedly stood up first and scolded the obedient official, "Governor Zheng, today's feast, don't be rude, don't retreat quickly." (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
