Ming said that it was a rest, and the eldest grandson Wuji had a day off, but the time was very tight for a trip back and forth from Zhuangzi outside the city, not to mention that this time he wanted to take his wife with him to visit his son who was learning some farming in Zhuangzi, so he naturally had to stay for one night, so he had to ask for another day of vacation.
Just as the last dynasty ended today, the eldest grandson Wuji stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask for a day off to visit Zhuangzi's son, and Ming said that one day of vacation is not enough, so I want to ask for a day off." ”
Li Er and the ministers, who were about to go down to the court, stopped and looked at the eldest grandson Wuji curiously.
Cheng Yanjin has always been a dog who can't spit out ivory in his mouth, grinned, and said: "No wonder it's quiet in Chang'an City, no one fights and fights, it turns out that your son is not in Chang'an City!" ”
"Yes, Brother Auxiliary Machine, no wonder I haven't seen you ransom people with money for so long・・・・・・" Another big black lieutenant Chi Gong put one hand on Cheng Yanjin's shoulder, looking like a good brother with a hook on his shoulder.
"Farmstead? Could it be that he has seen enough of Chang'an's fans and fallen in love with the peasant girl・・・・・・ "Another minister who has a good relationship with the eldest grandson Wuji squeezed his eyes.
Li Er, who was originally going to go down to the court, rarely saw the relatives below joking, and just left the ass of the dragon chair to do it again, watching the ministers below bickering with interest, which was one of his few pleasures.
Cheng Biting Jin had a lewd expression, nodded and agreed: "Well, what's wrong with the peasant girl, she has a strong butt and a big butt, and she can add two golden grandchildren to the auxiliary brother in one fell swoop, let's go back and think about it, what kind of meeting gift to give to the grandson of the auxiliary brother!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was so angry that his fat flesh trembled, and he was careless in making friends!
The beautiful bearded uncle Li Jing saw that everyone was talking a little excessively, and said: "Fellow virtuous brothers, don't talk nonsense, how can children not make mistakes, just as the so-called lover is out of Xi Shi, Chong'er and nephew look at the village aunt, Lang is a concubine, it can be regarded as a beautiful talk, how can you say so vulgar!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was so angry that he almost jumped to his feet, he didn't want to show off, but these friends were too deceitful, he took out the poems in his pocket from his arms, and said: "My son used to be ridiculous, but since the locust plague saw the people displaced, there was no harvest, some time ago I wrote the poem "Compassion for Nong", a few days ago, my son made a hand of "Tian Jia", and personally planted some rice with the old farmers, even if it was not successful, but my son has changed his mind, the prodigal son will not change his money, if you brothers will say that the child is not in the future, It's just that my eldest grandson Wuji can't get by! ”
Li Er sat on the dragon chair, very unscrupulously watching the ministers below quarrel, but seeing that the brother-in-law was annoyed and angry, he, who was a sister-in-law, was not good to continue to watch a good show, and said to stop him: "Everyone, Aiqing, don't quarrel, my uncle has said that the prodigal son will not change his money, we as parents, how can we not want our son to become a talent." Cheng Aiqing, what are your five sons like, I know, I injured Chong'er last time; Yu Chi Aiqing, your stupid big twin son is not a good bird・・・・・・"
When everyone heard Li Er's endless talk about the cubs who were not in the families of the ministers below, they all despised in their hearts: "Our sons are not successful, then your sons are not good birds!" Last time, it was rumored that the crown prince Li Chengqian also stole the palace maid's underwear・・・・・・"
After talking for a while, seeing that no one was talking below, Li Er saw the paper in the hand of the eldest grandson Wuji, remembered that this was a poem written by the eldest grandson Chong, gave his uncle some face, and said: "Uncle, since Chong'er has written a good poem, let us all appreciate it together." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji presented the poems in his hand, Li Er opened it and looked at it, he originally had a good look at the show, but after reading the poems, his face was melancholy, and he sighed sadly and said: "Chong'er is a good Erlang, the prodigal son turned back!" ”
Cheng Biting Jin, who was digging ear holes with his little finger, heard this, he thought he had heard it wrong, and climbed a few steps in great strides, and ran to the side of Li Erlong's chair. ”
Thinking of the unsuccessful sons in the family, a few tigers ran to the side of the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "Brother Auxiliary Machine, teach me how to teach my son, I am grateful for my brother!" ”
What Cheng Yanjin thought in his heart was that Changsun Chong's bastard could get better, and it didn't make sense that his five brave sons had been bastards!
Wei Chigong knew that Cheng Yanjin was rarely convinced by people, and if he could make him behave like this, what was written on the paper must be thought-provoking and long-lasting poems.
Wei Chigong also ran to Li Er's side to take a look, made a few big characters, barely recognized the words on it, it was the first time that he could understand such a poem so easily, and it was intriguing, and asked: "Your Majesty, do you want to let Weichen read it to the ministers?" ”
Li Er's eyes were red, and he nodded, as the king of a country, it was his shame for Li Er to let the people under his rule have no rice to cook and be hungry.
"Nanshan tastes beans, and the broken pods fall into the wind and rain. A bunch of nays with empty hands, nothing to fill the cauldron. Wei Chigong's voice was mellow, although the voice was not loud, but it was very penetrating, and the ministers in the court were shocked. The locust plague some time ago made the civil and military ministers panic and make it difficult to sleep and eat.
Although this poem by Changsun Chong is very straightforward, it vividly illustrates the hardship and hopelessness of the people's lives.
The crowd no longer had the heart to play, and they were silent one by one.
Li Er was in a bad mood, and said with a strong spirit: "Uncle, I will allow you a day off, and then you don't have to go to the court to work." Waving his hand, he motioned to disperse, stood up, and walked out in a gloomy shape.
Although the eldest grandson Wuji felt angry, the people of the world had nothing to eat, and they were not happy in their hearts.
Cheng Yanjin followed behind the eldest grandson Wuji and said, "Brother Auxiliary Machine, you haven't told me how to make your son's prodigal son turn back?" ”
Not only Cheng bites the gold, which family in the station is not a loser, I want to hear how the loser son of the eldest grandson's family learned well.
The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly lost face because of Cheng Biting Jin's words, hum, you ask, will I tell you?
"Hehe, where, where, it's just that when I saw the suffering of the people and had compassion, I changed my mind." After the eldest grandson Wuji finished speaking, he left quickly, and now he said that he would finish the official business in his hand, and he would be at ease tomorrow.
When Wei Chigong saw the eldest grandson Wuji leaving, he whispered in Cheng Yanjin's ear: "Do you believe it? ”
Cheng Biting Jin didn't care where he was, he spat on the pillar with dragon patterns on the side, and said, "It's strange to believe that old fox!" ”
"Then Ming said that we followed the eldest grandson fox and took a look!" For the sake of several sons in the family, Cheng Biting Jin had to jump all day long, beating a little a day and a big beating every two days, but he couldn't make those bear children obedient, and he was about to die of anger.
Wei Chigong nodded and said, "I'll see you at the city gate early tomorrow morning!" ”
Cheng Biting Jin and Wei Chigong's words, listening to other people's ears, are very attractive, and if Cheng Lao Goblin can value it so much, then there must be something good, anyway, it will be okay tomorrow, Ming said to follow and see what happened.
Li Er returned to the eldest grandson's dormitory in a depressed mood, sat on a chair, and remained silent and did not speak.
"Why is the emperor unhappy?" Empress Eldest Sun asked.
Li took the poems written by the eldest grandson Chong and showed them to the eldest grandson queen.
Empress Changsun is quite talented, the emperor read these verses, and it is normal for him to be unhappy, and the people can't eat enough, which is his lack of virtue as a king.
"Who did this?" Empress Eldest Sun asked softly.
Li Er squeezed out a wry smile and said, "It was your nephew, the eldest grandson, who did it." ”
"Chong'er?" Empress Changsun exclaimed, "I wrote "Compassion for Nong" before, and now I have written a concise and concise "Tian Family", is Chong'er really changing her mind?" ”
Li Er didn't believe in Changsun Chong, but he believed in his brother-in-law, Changsun Wuji, nodded and said, "I heard that Chong'er is now learning farming from farmers in Zhuangzi. ”
"Farming?" Empress Eldest Sun exclaimed, is it her nephew?
Li Er nodded and said, "It's true, I want to follow it to see what it's like to make the prodigal son turn around and repent." I am happy in the palace, and my people have no food and clothing, and I want to go and see them. ”
