Chapter 11 The Dawn of the Edge
After writing the "Female Commandment", Zhang Fuxin speculated that the emperor meant that he would not punish but reward, because he asked himself to send it over after copying it, isn't this an opportunity in disguise.
So she depicted the makeup Xianyan again, wearing two or three small hairpins, and an elegant green shirt and blue skirt, which was very different from the last gorgeous, after all, copying books must have the sincerity of copying books, and should not be too ostentatious.
Outside the Qiancang Palace, Zhang Fuxin didn't expect Xu Baolin and Xu Youhui to be there, she stood outside and personally served a bowl of ginseng and chicken soup, but the little eunuch who was notified outside the hall was sad, "Look, the servants have said that the emperor is worried about state affairs, and he won't see it, you have to go to the slave to spread it once, and he didn't say anything about it in vain, and he was scolded by the emperor, so please go back." ”
Xu Youhui, who was dressed in peach clothes and makeup, had a lot of sneers on her face, and when she saw Zhang Fuxin when she was going back and forth, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled, "I've seen Zhang Cairen." ”
"Although it is autumn, the residual heat has not dissipated these days, and it is the head of the sun, and the ginseng chicken soup is inevitably greasy." Zhang Fuxin kindly reminded.
Xu Youhui was slightly annoyed, but not to be outdone, "This is not to worry about talents, if you come to Your Majesty, you must know now that Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and does not see anyone, so you don't have to think in vain." ”
Zhang Fuxin swept past her and said directly to the little eunuch, "This is a post that His Majesty ordered me to copy a few days ago, and ordered me to copy it and send it over, and Father-in-law Lao will deliver it for me." ”
The little eunuch hesitated for a moment, afraid of something important to delay, so he sent the volume of posts in.
Xu Youhui was still waiting for the embarrassing scene to reappear, but when the little eunuch came out, he changed into a different posture and said respectfully to Zhang Fuxin, "Your Majesty has a call, Little Master Zhang, you can go in." ”
Zhang Fuxin blinked and said, "What did Baolin say just now, it's not that I came to find Your Majesty, but Your Majesty wants to find the master, and I am out of company." ”
Xu Youhui's face turned white with anger, how could this be possible, the emperor refused himself with the front foot and scolded the little eunuch, but the back foot let Zhang Fuxin in, whether Zhang Fuxin looked more beautiful, or Zhang Fuxin was special, she didn't think so, and it was even unbelievable.
When Zhang Fuxin stepped into the study room of the Qiancang Palace, there were already several books scattered on the ground, so she could only pick up one every step and present it to the emperor calmly.
To know the emperor's anger, this has to start with the history of the founding of the Zhao Dynasty.
The last emperor of the former Chen Dynasty because of the frequent wars, the construction of a large number of buildings, the abuse of people's power, triggered a nationwide uprising, the last years formed three major peasant uprisings against the Chen army, the powerful opposite sex vassal king Hu Yuanzhen in the name of maintaining the central government, launched a mutiny into the capital, Emperor Chen Ai was killed by the peasant army in the imperial expedition, Chen died.
Subsequently, Hu Yuanzhen proclaimed himself emperor and established the Zhao Dynasty, and the leaders of the peasant rebel army were surrendered or conquered by force at the same time. The leader of the Longyou rebel army was defeated and killed, and the leader of the rebel army in western Guangdong chose to return to the Zhao Dynasty, and Taizu Hu Yuan named him the king of western Guangdong, and the king of western Guangdong asked for the signing of an agreement on one country, two systems, and expressed his willingness to pay a huge amount of tribute every year, but refused to borrow troops to support or go on behalf of the dynasty.
The remaining Northwest Rebel Army is the existence that gives Taizu and the current emperor a headache, because this is the strongest team in the peasant rebel army, occupying the northwest, and calling it the Son of Heaven, setting up a hundred officials, and establishing itself as Ning. And because of their terrain advantages, the mountains are winding, and it is difficult to attack and pacify.
Now Ning Guo took the initiative to propose an agreement with the Zhao Dynasty, in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, if the Zhao was willing to buy 200,000 stones of grain and grass and 5 million taels of silver, they were willing to divide Ganzhou to the Zhao Dynasty.
And the idea of the court is nothing more than to either advocate that money is a foreign thing and recovering the land first, or refuse and directly send troops to rob it.
When Zhang Fuxin picked up the fold book, her eyes swept to what was going on, and she asked directly, "Your Majesty is still bothered by the affairs of Ningguo?" ”
The emperor's face was stained with gloom, and his voice sank, "Do you know that the northwest is called Ningguo, and the crime is treason?" ”
Zhang Fuxin said calmly, "Your Majesty, although you are very angry, the concubine has to risk death to tell you that outside the palace, the northwest has long been called Ning, which shows that it has taken shape, even if sooner or later it is part of my Dazhao, but at the moment, it is not an internal worry, but an external trouble." ”
The emperor couldn't help but be shocked, not to mention the concubine, even a high-powered courtier didn't dare to say it, he subconsciously said, "Zhang's...... You're so daring. ”
Zhang Fuxin gasped and took two steps back, "Your Majesty forgives your sins, and the concubine knows that she has overstepped, but she only has worries." ”
The emperor's expression was cold and arrogant: "If you are a small harem talent, if you can share my worries, then what else do I need to do with the imperial court?" ”
She didn't answer such a question directly, and smiled, "Since Your Majesty can send your concubine in, you must no longer want to worry about these government affairs, and the concubine has the right to tell Your Majesty a story." ”
When the emperor heard this, he leaned his back and picked a relaxed posture, but the words he said could not be relaxed, "Then I listened, but I didn't appreciate it if I spoke well, but if I talked it was boring, I would be punished." ”
Zhang Fuxin just looked confident, and said elegantly, "The concubine obeys orders, and the concubine wants to tell a story about a folk called Fuxing Inn......"
The emperor raised his eyebrows and interrupted, "Fuxin Inn? Do you own it? ”
She said eloquently, "Back to Your Majesty, this lucky star is not the other Fuxin, Li Shangyin has a sentence 'There is a green dragon in the east and a white tiger in the west, and there is a lucky star in the world', which is the name of the inn." ”
The emperor suddenly stared at Zhang Fuxin with murderous energy, "Li Shangyin's "Song of the Northern Qi Dynasty without sorrow and sorrow", it is not about the death of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao Wei, who is happy to mourn, but it is really a satire of Tang Jingzong's absurdity and carelessness, what do you want to say? ”
Zhang Fuxin was speechless, she just quoted the poem, and didn't know that there was such a profound meaning in it, after all, the poems she learned at home in the past were all understood by herself, and there was no special teacher to teach, so she turned around with her wit, "Your Majesty is knowledgeable, and the concubine is beyond reach, and the name of that inn should actually be Zhao Ruteng's 'Xi Gong Feng makes it fresh today, and sees the lucky stars to shine on the blessing'." "That should be fine.
The emperor's face softened slightly, "Let's start." ”
"There is a mysterious Fuxing inn in the folk, this inn can live people, can be bought and sold, and also provides restaurants, a boxy two-story building, there is a guest to eat, first ordered a plate of mutton, and so on, the guest said that the mutton is too ashamed, so he asked the store to change to a plate of ribs, I didn't expect that the housekeeper of this small inn is very good-tempered, uphold the concept of making money with harmony, and change the guest to a plate of ribs, the guest is satisfied, who knows that he wants to leave after eating a mouth, Xiao Er came over to let him pay, He said that the plate of pork ribs was exchanged for mutton, and then Xiao Er said But you haven't paid for mutton, but the guest said that I didn't eat mutton, Xiao Er said But you ate pork ribs, and he said that the ribs were exchanged for mutton...... It turned out that this guest was a local ruffian scoundrel, he often used this trick to eat overlord meals, the owner was always blocked by his crooked reasoning and was speechless, and he saw that the black tiles on the roof of the Fuxing Inn were incomplete, and most of the white wall skin was peeled off, so such a shabby little shop would definitely not dare to make a noise. ”
The emperor disdainfully said, "Don't worry about your quibbles, you have to pay the bill if you come here to eat, otherwise it is useless to say a flower." ”
Zhang Fuxin's voice changed very fascinatingly, "Although it is a quibble, it makes people don't know how to refute it, so Your Majesty thinks, where is this scoundrel's quibble?" ”
The emperor frowned, these words really stumped him as a ninety-five, and he suddenly felt very shameless, "Hmph, if you want me to say it, just behead him directly, why bother so much?" ”
Zhang Fuxin smiled lightly, "Crooked reasoning not only occupies a rational word, but it is also knowledgeable in it." She glanced at the emperor secretly, and was very good at scrutinizing the time to give him a step down, "Well, the innkeeper is just as His Majesty thinks, because from the next day, this scoundrel has disappeared, and no one has ever seen him again." ”
The emperor raised his eyebrows, "Oh? The boss killed him? ”
Zhang Fuxin knew that the emperor had already been interested in her story, and smiled mysteriously, "Well, it depends on how you understand it, Your Majesty." ”
The emperor suddenly said dissatisfied, "This is very unreasonable, my Son of Heaven is under the imperial land, and there is a royal law constraints, how can this boss blatantly kill people?" Where is the government in this story? ”
"This inn can escape the king's law, it is no longer an ordinary inn, the concubine will explain it to you next time, but the question thrown by this scoundrel is actually very easy to understand, the mutton is from the inn, and the ribs are also from the inn, he exchanged the store's things for the store's things, Your Majesty, what is the difference between this and the northwest thief?" Zhang Fuxin's voice is every word, but her appearance is playful and well-behaved.
The emperor suddenly woke up to the fact that Ganzhou was originally his state capital, but Ning Guo wanted him to replace it with a large amount of grain, grass and silver, and he resolutely could not agree to this clause, he couldn't help but stroke his palms and laugh, "Okay, good, what a talented person, but it can be called this 'talent' word, I didn't find out that there were such women in the harem before." ”
said three good things in a row, which shows how much the emperor appreciates her ingenuity and intelligence.
Zhang Fuxin has always been pampered and not surprised, and continued, "Sooner or later, the northwest and Ganzhou will belong to Your Majesty, it's just a matter of time, the first thing to fight a war is to have materials, the second to generals, and the third to soldiers, but these three things need to be cultivated, and now is not the time." ”
Emperor Zhengse said, "I know that one day the northwest will be recovered, at least when I am in power, not an inch of Dazhao's territory will be missing." ”
After discussing this matter, she put on a pitiful look and said, "Then will Your Majesty still condemn the concubine?" "It's like a kitten wagging its tail and begging for mercy around the emperor.
Without hesitation, he picked her up and walked to the other room, and said with a slight smile: "Sometimes men expand their territory, not necessarily on the battlefield. ”
Zhang Fuxin suddenly blushed his cheeks, hugged his neck and turned his face away, "Your Majesty is so wise and powerful, the concubine surrenders without a fight......"
The sun is shining.
She received many rewards that day, such as ice chalcedony earrings, green cat's eye gold beads and tassels, diamond-encrusted sea blue jade bracelets, and two cloud brocades, which she looked at as valuable and watery rewards.
Her fingertips only linger for a moment on the beautiful and smooth cloud brocade, glory and wealth, warmth and softness, are all things that pass away easily, and it is never so easy to find a place.
