Chapter 82: Poetry

The queen smiled lightly: "It's good that Concubine Mao is dedicated to the country, but what about this Wenchen and military general, it's not for us women in the deep palace to worry about, let's talk less in the future." ”

The concubine's face suddenly turned pale, and she almost knelt down in panic. The emperor raised his hand and said: "That's it, the festival is a happy event, and I won't pursue anything if I write poetry casually." Although his words were gentle, his expression was already a little displeased. Concubine Mao's heart fell even heavier, and she sat in the corner with her mouth shut and slumped.

The queen obviously won't forget the ice cubes in the palace. She glanced at Concubine Mao with a look of disgust.

doesn't follow her identity, and it can be regarded as a face if she can let her speak and suppress it in person! Such an unworthy person dares to help the Shen family to oppose her!

At this time, the always silent concubine smiled: "Why hasn't it been Rong Hua's turn yet?" Her poems are concubines who can't wait. ”

Although these words contained a little jealousy, they relieved the embarrassment caused by the concubine during the banquet.

Chu Huashang didn't delay any longer, picked up a piece of paper and put it in the tray of the inner prison. The palace maid on the other side read aloud: "One lamp, four words, wine and wine." Two drums, two gongs, bang, bang. ”

The concubines were in an uproar.

Because of the festival, there are naturally festive singing and dancing performances between the banquets, and the sound of the two gongs and drums has been ringing. The concubines couldn't help their demeanor more and more when they heard the voice, and finally laughed out loud. Liu Jieyu pointed at Chu Huashang while holding her stomach and said, "Oh, if you don't bring this, you have teased us!" You flamboyant mouth is also called poetry! Yo, I'm laughing to death......"

"Don't laugh at her, we won't be able to write it if we change it! Vulgarity is elegance, and Sister Chu's words are so wonderful! Zhao Shuyuan is also a cool person, and pointed to the big red spokes with the word "wine" hanging in the Changxin Palace and said: "Chongyang drinks chrysanthemum wine, accompanied by the joy of the western gong." It's still easy to fight neatly, but we haven't seen it so appropriate and happy for the scene! I think Sister Chu's adverb is an eternal absolute! ”

Xu Jieyu also smiled and said: "The emperor is really, I have been secretly laughing on it for a long time, what a wonderful poem I should be!" We laity are still writing some serious poems! Coincidentally, on the second watch day at this time, the little eunuch outside the palace gate who played the gong conscientiously beat the drum and shouted "Be careful of the fire candles". The sound of gongs was accompanied by the sound of drums, and now everyone laughed even harder.

The laughter took a long time before it stopped. Chu Huashang's poems were so interesting that everyone threw their jealous and hateful thoughts out of the clouds, and they all drank happily.

Tuoba Hong is not happy because of this poem that is too vulgar and too elegant.

Chu Huashang is so capable, which not only coaxed the emperor to like it, but also made these concubines who have always been full of contradictions buy it. The big guys are all happy, and the emperor likes it even more when he sees it.

The poems are still continuing, but the poems after that are all written at will, and there is no longer a heart of comparison.

This Chung Yeung Festival is really comfortable for everyone.

It wasn't long before it was Concubine Wen's turn. Because she fell out of favor, others regarded her as the last of the concubines.

At this time, the concubines were laughing to themselves, and not many people listened to her poems. After Chu Huashang gained power, everyone even forgot that Concubine Wen was also a talented person.

The palace maid was not very attentive when she read poems for the concubine, and her voice was so small that she couldn't hear it in the back row: "Chongyang can't bear to go up to the tall building, and Hanju shines in the twilight of autumn every year." Anzhi Beisai blows the reed pipe, and recruits people overnight to look at the township ......"

There was a sudden silence in the hall.

Su Guiren of Yongshou Palace only heard the first two sentences clearly, and I don't know why everyone was cold, and they just thought that Concubine Wen's words were not good. She said disdainfully: "The day of the family reunion is in the palace again, and such sad words are too inappropriate......"

"Enough, Su Guiren!" The queen rebuked her with rare majesty: "Although Concubine Wen's poems are not so festive, they are not something you can disparage!" ”

The hall was even more silent, and Su Guiren was so frightened that he knelt down but didn't know what was going on.

The emperor waved his hand and said, "I and you are both nobles of the clan, and at this time we can enjoy the joy of reunion and feast and drink together, but the soldiers on the border of northern Xinjiang have to endure the pain of parting. After a pause, he said: "Everyone is celebrating the reunion, but no one can think of those who are loyal to the country. Xu's poem, very good! ”

At this time, those concubines who didn't hear it clearly also knew what kind of poem Concubine Wen had written. Everyone understands that Concubine Wen's poems are affectionate, righteous, loyal and virtuous, and then compare their own poems, but they are really greedy for comfort. For a while, their faces were full of solemnity, and Chu Huashang and others all praised Wen Concubine according to the emperor's wishes.

Su Guiren kowtowed again and again to ask for sin.

Concubine Wen bowed her head and said humbly: "The concubine just felt it. If there were no soldiers who guarded their homes and defended the country, where would there be peace and prosperity, how could we sit here and feast and drink. It's a pity that they can't have a good Chung Yeung Festival. ”

Concubine Wen's poems are very different from those of Concubine Mao, she doesn't talk about politics or politics, she only sighs about the pain of parting with the frontier soldiers.

Very appropriate, and generally knowledgeable.

Tuoba Hong looked at this concubine who had been neglected by him for months and almost couldn't recognize her face, and his eyes became more and more appreciative.

This poem is not only full of righteousness, but more importantly, the words of the Northern Cypriot Expedition are the most appetizing to Tuoba Hong.

Speaking of Beisai, Tuoba Hong is not an ordinary reminiscence.

When he was the crown prince, although he was the concubine of the middle palace, he had no choice but to kill his wife with his father's favored concubine, and he only had the third prince born to Concubine Li in his heart, and he wanted to abolish the prince several times. Tuoba Hong's childhood life was like walking on thin ice, and later in order to keep the position of the crown prince, he desperately went to the battlefield in Beisai to earn military merits.

At that time, the Xiongnu in Beisai were in rebellion, and the Mongolian tribes were fighting among themselves, and the Xiongnu's army fought to Tongguan strongly, almost swallowing a thousand miles of land north of Daqin. Emperor Kangjing was the first to send the old general Li of the Shangzhu State at that time to fight, but Li Zhanshen died of illness at the border pass due to his advanced age. For a time, there were no brave generals in the court, and the few people sent to replace the marshal did not have the talent of General Li, and they fought a tug-of-war with the Xiongnu for ten years, and the victory was not scored.

It was in this situation that Takubahiro went hard. It is false to say that they are not afraid of death, the Huns are not rich but good at fighting. Putting aside the worry about his life, the most maddening thing is that Beisai does not have a capable general, and he, the prince, does not dare to compete with Li Zhanshen, but it has been three years and five years, and the battle has not been won...... Where does military merit come from?

But if you don't go, it will be sooner or later when the deposed prince is deposed. The hateful three princes were sent to Miao Jiang by Emperor Kang Jing to quell the rebellion, what kind of hard bones are the Huns, and what kind of people are Miao Jiang, but it is a rebellion of the tribe, he "returned triumphantly" in just a few months, "outstanding military achievements", and made Queen Sun and the prince so angry that they vomited blood.

Then Tuoba Hong went to Beisai with resentment and fighting spirit. There is such a ruthless and unrighteous father on the stall, the fat has long been eaten by King Mu Wu alone, where can it be his turn, only a place like Beisai that no prince wants to go can try his luck. Emperor Kangjing saw that the prince was ambitious, smiled and patted the table and said Okay, anyway, the Huns can't be defeated for twenty or thirty years, so it's good for the prince to do a favor and boost morale.

No one expected that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was on the expedition for the first time, would be blessed all the way. Soon after Tuoba Hong arrived at the border pass, the news came from the Xiongnu side that the Yan clan of Huhan Evil Khan, that is, the Duanyang Emperor who was close to him, was executed. The Xiongnu's move was to show that there was no need for reconciliation between the two countries, and their wish was to swallow the entire Central Plains. Duanyang was the youngest daughter of Empress Sun and the only sister of Tuoba Hong, and the Huns also sent the mutilated body of Emperor Ji to the Qin army for demonstration.

Tuoba Hong couldn't stand it all of a sudden, and he remembered the days he had been bullied with his mother and brothers and sisters over the years. The emperor who came out of the concubine also had to be sent to the relatives. If he can't come back with meritorious deeds, he and his mother will end up with Duanyang.

He personally led his troops to chase the enemy army that night - the general who gave Duanyang to the Qin army was none other than the Tiger King of the Huns, who was also their main general. Tuoba Hong's blood is strong and resentful, and under the courage of not wanting to die, plus he has learned the art of war and riding and archery well over the years, he really killed the Tiger King in the snowfield canyon. The victory was too beautiful, and the morale of the Qin army was high.

Later, Tuoba Hong used his nature as a conspirator to win over the Mongol tribes, which was much more clever than a hard encounter. Just half a year later, the Xiongnu offered thousands of taels of gold to sue for peace.

Tuoba Hong killed everyone and left all the gold behind, and returned to the court to report to his father. The old emperor smiled, and for the first time, he was sincerely satisfied.

In the next two years, a lot of things happened, and several princes were not fuel-efficient lamps. But it was Takubahiro who ascended to the throne in the end.

Tuoba Hiroshi has been emperor for almost nine years now. When I think of the desert campaign, I always admire my own courage very narcissistically.

I often think about how good it would be for Duanyang to live.

At that time, the prince's exploits not only satisfied the emperor, but also made the soldiers of Great Qin admire. The defenders of the Northern Cypriots were the ones who were the most loyal supporters of Tuoba Hong's accession to the throne.

Concubine Wen wrote a poem that reminded Tuoba Hong of his subordinates. As an excellent monarch, he ordered on the spot that all the soldiers who defended the North Fortress would be awarded the title of first-class knighthood.

In this way, the commander who was originally not a high official rank is at least a door captain.

The concubines praised the emperor in unison for his wisdom and the virtuous concubines.

Chu Huashang concealed the depression in his eyebrows. Originally, she was the most brilliant one tonight, but she killed a concubine halfway...... Concubine Wen's fall from grace was all because of herself, and this time she stole her limelight and regained her favor, which can be regarded as a tooth for a tooth.

Concubine Wen has been dormant for a long time, and this time she made such a powerful move. She doesn't compete with Chu Huashang for writing and ink, but uses clever tricks to win. Speaking of which, it is most appropriate for the concubine to write the poem here, she has always been high, and she is maverick in speaking and doing things, if she is an ordinary concubine, she looks charming all day long, and her temperament is gentle and competes for favor, and suddenly writes such a poem that should not be written by a woman, but it is too deliberate.

The palace people no longer dared to despise Concubine Wen in their eyes.
