219, entering the palace (3)
"Married as husband and wife, there is no doubt about love. Joy is in tonight, grace and good time. Try to love Chunhua, don't forget the joyful time. Life should come back, death should be Sauvignon Blanc. β
In the past few years, Liu Jiaojiao has deliberately studied the history of the era in which she lives, and found that the history known in modern times is not matched, not even the earliest Xia Shang Zhou, but some other dynasty names that she has never heard of, so she dares to plagiarize arbitrarily.
The poem she chose is said to have been written by Su Wu in the Han Dynasty, and there are eight lines in the poem, but because this poem describes what a general thinks and feels when he leaves his wife, and the middle four sentences involve the battlefield, so she removed it directly, and only kept the head and tail, which can be regarded as deducting the emperor's question.
As soon as she finished reading the poem, the room was silent.
Gu Tingjun looked at her with a hint of appreciation, he was indeed deliberately making things difficult, but he didn't expect that a teenage girl could describe the relationship between husband and wife so deeply, making him more and more looking forward to what kind of news the secret guard sent to investigate would bring him when he returned.
Empress Sun was deeply shocked, especially the first sentence of "Married as husband and wife, love and affection are not doubtful", which made her instantly remember that she had just married Gu Tingjun.
At that time, she was only a teenage girl, even though she was ready not to monopolize that person, but what girl didn't have a spring? There is always a touch of thought in her heart, she also hopes that she will marry a lover, love her husband and wife, and grow old, but the reality forced her to give up.
As for the last sentence in the poem, "Life should be returned, death should be Sauvignon Blanc", she can't count on it in this life, she only hopes that she will not marry into the emperor's family in the next life, be an ordinary person, marry a man who treats her sincerely, and live a simple life.
Empress Sun thought about it a little intrigued, and she was also a little moved, her eyes unconsciously showed a touch of sadness, and some tears faintly flashed.
The big palace maid beside her hurriedly pulled the hem of her sleeve as a reminder.
Empress Sun, who came back to her senses, immediately showed an apologetic smile, blinked quickly, suppressed the tears that almost burst out of her eyes, looked at Gu Tingjun, and blamed herself: "Miss Xu's poem is so well written, the concubine can't help but think of the scene when she got married, and she was a little out of shape for a while, and I hope the emperor won't blame her." β
Gu Ting shook his head indifferently, then patted her hand soothingly, and said with a smile: "Miss Xu's poem is indeed very well written, and in just four sentences, it describes the deep love between you and my husband and wife vividly. β
After speaking, he looked at Liu Jiaojiao, who lowered his head again, and asked, "I heard that you were fortunate enough to be taught by a reclusive Confucian, but I don't know if this is the case?" β
"Your Majesty, this is indeed the case." Liu Jiaojiao replied without changing her face.
"I wonder if you can still find that great Confucian? With such a great talent, I really want to ask for a lesson or two in person. β
"When the gentleman left, the courtiers also tried to ask the courtiers to leave an address so that the courtiers could find it in the future, but the gentleman said that he only left the courtiers with a poem, and left quietly."
"Oh? What kind of poem? β
"Peach blossom nunnery in Peach Blossom Dock, peach blossom fairy in peach blossom nunnery. The peach blossom fairy planted peach trees and picked peach blossoms for wine money. When you wake up, you only sit in front of the flowers, and when you are drunk, you come to sleep with the flowers. Half-awake and half-drunk, day after day, flowers fall and bloom year after year. I hope that the old man will die in the wine room, and he will not bow in front of the carriage and horse. The dust of the car and the horse are full of the noble, and the wine cup and the flower branch are poor. If you compare the rich with the poor, one on the flat earth and the other in the sky. If the poor are compared to chariots and horses, he has to drive me to be idle. Others laugh at me for being crazy, and I laugh at others for not being able to see through it. I don't see the tomb of Wuling heroes, and there are no flowers and no wine hoeing fields. β
Liu Jiaojiao directly read out her favorite poem of Tang Yin, and gave her the detached character of the fictitious gentleman who was chic and uninhibited and unwilling to be bound by the world, so that she could directly avoid asking about the whereabouts of this non-existent gentleman in the future.
It has been clearly expressed in people's poems, I don't want to be an official, I don't want to chase fame and fortune, I just want to live a simple life happily, so no one should bother him, just let him be a quiet and beautiful man.
If the poems written by Liu Jiaojiao in the past brought Gu Tingjun a surprise, then the poems left by the gentleman she is now retelling in her mouth brought Gu Tingjun a complete shock, plus a little displeasure.
What shocked me was that this person was really broad-minded, and it seemed that everything in the world was not in his eyes, and the fame and fortune that others were desperately pursuing were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
What I don't like is that this person's poems are faintly revealing some criticism of the imperial court, Gu Ting has always been self-proclaimed Mingjun, and he thinks that the court under his control is still relatively clear, so it sounds a little uncomfortable.
But no matter what, the person who can write this kind of poetry has already made it clear that he has no quarrel with the world and just wants to be an idle cloud and wild crane, so even if he is happy to see the hunt and has the intention of soliciting, he can only give up.
After all, the world is too big, except for the ancient dynasty, there are other countries, who knows where he is? Besides, if a person really wants to hide in the world, it is not so easy to find him.
Empress Sun's thoughts will definitely not be as far-reaching as Gu Tingjun, but she will inevitably be shocked by the atmosphere of this poem, and said with regret: "The gentleman who can make such a poem must be a peerless talent, but it's a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to see it." β
Liu Jiaojiao cooperated with a regretful expression, and said helplessly: "Although the courtiers have only studied with Mr. for one year, they are always amazed by his talent, but it is a pity that the courtiers have limited talents, and Mr. does not look down on them at all, and is unwilling to accept the courtiers as apprentices." β
"You can succeed in only one year of study, where is the limited talent? According to this palace, you are obviously talented, but that gentleman should not want to bind himself in one place, so he refuses to accept you as an apprentice, and you don't have to mind. Because of the previous poem, Queen Sun has a good impression of her now, and immediately spoke out to comfort her.
Gu Tingjun also casually comforted a few words, and then quietly glanced at Empress Sun, who saw this with a slight chin back, frowned, supported her forehead with one hand, and said uncomfortably: "The head disease of this palace seems to have been committed again, and it is a little uncomfortable." Mrs. Xie, I heard that you know some methods of massaging your head, can you please go to the inner room with the palace and help the palace press it? β
Where does Cui know how to massage his head? But the queen said that she understood, even if she didn't understand, she had to pretend to understand, otherwise it would be disobedience and offending the queen. Wenxin School
Guessing that she must be deliberately trying to break herself away, the emperor was going to say something to Liu Jiaojiao alone, Cui Shi got up while Nuo Nuo should get up, and looked at Liu Jiaojiao with anxiety.
Liu Jiaojiao gave her a reassuring look, and still sat still.
After the two left, only Gu Tingjun, Liu Jiaojiao and a few palace people who were waiting were left in the room, Gu Tingjun raised his hand, leaving only his henchman and eunuch Wei Gonggong, and asked the other palace people to wait outside.
After all the miscellaneous personnel left, Gu Tingjun looked at Liu Jiaojiao, with a teasing smile, and asked, "Should I call you Miss Xu?" Or Chef Liu? β
Liu Jiaojiao's heart was shocked, and then she calmed down. He guessed correctly, he already knew her true identity.
Getting up, kneeling, and kowtowing, a set of movements is done extremely naturally, as if flowing smoothly.
"Your Majesty, the courtiers didn't mean to hide it, but the emperor didn't ask that day, so it's not easy for the courtiers to speak without permission." In the case that the form is stronger than the person, there is nothing to admit the mistake first, but the responsibility that should be taken out is still good to take it out, and she doesn't like to be a backstabber.
Gu Tingjun was a little confused by her series of actions and reactions, originally thought that she would make up words and quibble, but he didn't expect to admit his mistake so simply, which made him suddenly feel a sense of powerlessness to punch the cotton.
What a cunning girl!
Gu Tingjun was a little angry and asked her to get up and sit back, after all, people not only admitted their mistakes, but also had an excellent attitude, as an open-minded Mingjun, could he really care about a little girl?
That's it, just let this little girl be proud!
"Are you really self-taught?" Gu Tingjun asked again.
Liu Jiaojiao's face was not red, and she replied in the affirmative, "Back to the emperor, yes." β
"Then you are very smart, you can win the first prize in the poetry meeting after studying with Mr. for a year, and your self-taught cooking skills can crush those chefs in the imperial dining room."
"Emperor Xie praised him, and the courtiers also felt that they learned things very quickly."
Gu Tingjun laughed angrily.
What he just said was obviously a sarcastic remark, and this little girl even admitted it directly, which ...... It's really cheeky.
"Do you know what modesty is?" Gu Tingjun couldn't help it anymore, and continued to provoke her with words.
Liu Jiaojiao said with a calm and righteous face: "Mr. once taught his courtiers that if other people's praise is correct, they should be well received, and there is no need to be modest, because modesty is excessive pride." β
Gu Tingjun: "......" You said so reasonably, I can't seem to refute it.
"And the emperor is a well-known saint, he must be sharp-eyed when he sees people and things, and he will not make mistakes, since the emperor has praised his courtiers, it proves that his courtiers are indeed worthy of praise, if the courtiers are deliberately modest, wouldn't it be a bully?" Liu Jiaojiao continued.
Gu Tingjun was so made by her crooked reasoning that he couldn't cry or laugh, and only after a long time did he raise his hand and point at her, and said helplessly: "Your grandfather's family is a scholarly family, your father is also a rich scholar, and your mother is a model of a noble girl in Beijing, why did you give birth to a treacherous character?" β
Liu Jiaojiao said with an innocent face: "The courtiers are obviously telling the truth, why does the emperor think that the courtiers are cunning?" The courtiers were not convinced, and asked the emperor to solve their doubts. β
is cunning like this, like a little fox who has become a fine, and dares to say that he is not convinced, and dares to let him solve his doubts, Gu Tingjun deeply feels that the thickness of this girl's face is beyond his imagination.
Xu Tianci and Xie Linlang can't teach such a girl, they can only be in the countryside for those years, and they don't know who they learned badly from.
Gu Tingjun was suddenly a little worried about the son of the Wujun Wang family, there was such a treacherous fiancΓ©e, and he didn't know whether he was happy or worried.
Perhaps, the reason why the princess repeatedly rejected this marriage was not only because of Xie Linlang's relationship, but also because she saw the nature of this girl at the poetry meeting, and she was afraid that her baby son would not be able to suppress her in the future, so she refused so strongly?
Shaking his head and waving away those messy thoughts, Gu Tingjun had a solemn expression and asked, "Who is the owner of Qingxin Fang?" What does it have to do with the third prince and Yin Er? You'd better tell the truth, since I can summon you into the palace, I can also make you unable to leave the palace! β
Liu Jiaojiao's heart sank, and she finally got to the point.
