Chapter Seventy-Five: The First Attempt to Turn Over the Clouds and Rain

The day after the holiday, Tai College still held the year-end discussion class as usual - because the big exam had passed, at this time, the colleges no longer taught new subjects, but chose multiple topics, and students freely discussed and wrote strategies. The topic of the doctorate of the Nali Academy is: On the system of opening the princess's palace.

As soon as this question came out, someone immediately counted the disadvantages of the princess system in the Tang Dynasty, and contacted this dynasty: the Great Yan opened the mansion to set up officials, but the two princesses, one is Yan Taizu's sister Princess Beijing, who is also the heroine of the year, and the other is the flying princess, who is also the people of Ze, but the right person to choose. Some students immediately mentioned: Now the princess of peace who wants to open the third mansion has what virtue and how can she be? How can you easily tie for the top of the list?

An Bin said again, on the day of the retreat, he saw that the rice shop left by Princess Fei was still distributing New Year's rice to poor households, and the Mongolian education in various states still benefited the people, so he implored the doctor to ask for the recognition of Princess Fei, how can he know right from wrong if he is not virtuous?

Two days later, at the small court meeting, the officials of Zhongshu Province played, and the doctor of the Rite Academy handed over a chapter to implore the Flying Princess to be commended, and the Ministry of Rites had a concert, please rebuild the Flying Princess Ancestral Hall, and there were similar admonitions in the Ministry of Justice.

Since two years ago, Emperor Yongnian of the Little Dynasty will no longer participate, and they are all presided over by the crown prince. Hearing this, Murong Duan pondered for a moment, and then ordered the province to reconsider. The next day, I received a note, in addition to rebuilding the ancestral hall and commending future generations, there is also a small note, which is to print the biography of Princess Fei, so as not to let the world forget its virtues. The crown prince immediately approved the article and handed it over to Shangshu Province.

Because it was almost the end of the year, the Shangshu Provincial Government had been extremely busy recently, but when he saw the prince's reply, the right minister Ruojin did not dare to slack off, and immediately summoned Huo Qiao, the head of the household department, and handed over the Chen Tiao of the province to Huo Qiao and said: "Although this matter is not a major policy, but the prince attaches importance to it, it should be completed as soon as possible." ”

Huo Qiao hurriedly responded respectfully. Back at the household department, Huo Qiao summoned the directors of the Construction Department and the Information Department to give instructions. Others are just that, but Chenghua, the director of the news department, can't hold back his excitement: the information department under his jurisdiction is the most idle one in the household department, except for the daily newspaper and some commendation orders, he has nothing to do on weekdays, and he, the director, has almost become the invisible person of the household department, and now he has this errand, if he does it well, maybe he can let the prince know his name, the more he thinks about it, the happier he is, and suddenly he is like eating a red pill.

It was past noon that day, but Chenghua asked people to dig out two copies of the biography of Princess Fei in the library, and he didn't go home, and drove directly to the official printing workshop outside the city. When he told the owner about his intentions, the owner couldn't help frowning: Although there is movable type printing technology now, how can retypesetting and plate making be done in a few days? A steward beside him lit up and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence, I sorted out the warehouse yesterday, but I happened to see an old version of the biography of the flying princess, and I originally wanted to dismantle it, but fortunately I haven't done it yet!" ”

Chenghua hurriedly asked: "Is it the official version approved by the Information Department, or the private version in the market?" The steward smiled: "Where did we get the private edition of the books here, naturally they are all official editions, at least some years old!" ”

Chenghua was busy asking people to find out the old version, and tried to print the first and last two pages, and sure enough, there were official seals. Chenghua's joy, as if he had received a commendation order, immediately ordered to stop all books and print this set of flying princess biography. The workshop started day and night, and in two days it got 400 sets.

Huo Qiao couldn't help but be taken aback when he got the book: where is it so fast? After hearing that Chenghua reported the situation, he opened the book again, and there was no omission, it was more detailed than the few editions he had seen, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately asked the Information Department to distribute it to the guild halls and academies everywhere according to the requirements listed in the article, and when the print run was more, it was sent to the state schools with the newspaper.

The day when the new Yinfei princess was sent to Taixue, it was the second day of the students' annual examination results, in addition to a few happy and a few sorrows, the students also began to pack their bags, and left Beijing one after another two days to return to their hometowns, and there were also some students from poor families who were ready to spend the New Year in Beijing. These flying princess legends have become the last topic of the year in Taixue, most students in the review of the deeds of the flying princess, can't help but feel that the princess's mansion is a big matter, just literary talent is far from enough, if it is not for the flying princess like the world and not greedy for power, not to take this honor lightly.

Three days later, it was the last great dynasty of the previous year, and the system of the upper dynasty of Dayan was slightly changed from the previous dynasty, with a small dynasty on the fifth day, and the first and fifteenth days of the first month of each month, that is, the two days of the new year; The participation of the three provinces and six ministries of the small dynasty and other substantive civil officials are now presided over by the crown prince, and all civil and military officials of the great dynasty are required to participate, and Emperor Yongnian will also appear.

There are Zhongshu Provincial Shilang and Hongwen to play, and the princess's mansion should not be opened lightly, otherwise it is not only afraid of restarting the disaster of the princess of the Tang Dynasty, but also disrespectful to the founding princess and the flying princess. The doctor of the Tai Academy of Rites immediately seconded the proposal, and listed some of the remarks of the Tai College today.

Emperor Yongnian's face sank like water, and he didn't say a word, but suddenly a royal historian said loudly: "If you talk about disrespect to Princess Fei, the household department is really disrespectful!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, and when they looked back, it was a servant of the Imperial Palace, whose name was Gao Fenghua, who was the most picky and sharp-tongued one. I saw him take out a newly made biography of Princess Fei from his sleeve, and sneered: "The household department printed the book quickly this time, but it was too negligent, and the foreword above said that Princess Fei married into the Yuwen family in the fourth year of Xiqing, but it was written that Princess Fei sacrificed silk in the eighth year of Xiqing on the winter solstice, which is reasonable!" It must be a negligence in printing, such a major mistake or omission, the household department is blamed! ”

Huo Qiao hurriedly took the newly made book from Gao Fenghua's hand and opened it, and sure enough, he saw the two places outlined by the red pen, and he couldn't help but shudder in his heart: Chenghua also printed too fast this time, isn't there really a leak? After this princess returns from marriage, she can still offer silk, and it is not enough to have a princess of Ping'an, who is the only favorite today? The flying princess of the year was just a side branch, how could she have such an adventure? What's more, everyone knows the deeds of Princess Fei, why has no one ever mentioned this paragraph? Didn't someone deliberately set a trap for themselves to drill?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, Huo Qiao hurriedly knelt down in front of the hall: "The minister is guilty of negligence." Gao Fenghua triumphantly glanced at He Yu, who was a silent scholar on the side, and said in his heart: If it weren't for the fact that I happened to hear you take out a book to talk about this matter today, how could I catch this Huo Qiao's sore feet in the palace!

The crown prince Murong Duan frowned tightly, today I originally wanted to take the opportunity to discuss the matter of opening the mansion again, it is best to let my father and emperor be forced to retract his fate due to public opinion, why did he suddenly print the wrong book again? Shengsheng stirred up this game! couldn't help but glance at Huo Qiao with hatred.

The opening of the Flying Princess Mansion is more than sixty years ago, and no one knows what the specific situation is, but Wang Yu Wenkuan of Pingxi County has changed his face. He is the contemporary head of the Yuwen family, others don't know about the things back then, but he has heard of it, Princess Fei did marry into the Yuwen family back then, and four years later was brought into the Chongyang Palace by the Heavenly Master, and then he came out and left, and he was indeed a virgin at that time, this is a big ugly family of the Yuwen family, it was easy to suppress it, and even the biography that mentioned this matter was managed to be cancelled, and his own children didn't know, how could it be turned up again?

Emperor Yongnian's eyes were deep, and he suddenly looked at Murong Qian, who was sitting in a wheelchair attending the dynasty, only to see him smiling, as if he had something to say, his heart couldn't help but move, and said slowly: "It's about the six noble surnames and heavenly masters, this matter is very big, King Ye, you are in charge of the Jingzhaomu and Intelligence Bureau, the words of the imperial history, can it be reasonable?" ”

Murong Qian bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, Erchen has heard recently that there are many rumors and arguments about the princess opening the capital, so I have specially checked some materials of the princess Fei back then. I have consulted the old director, and judging from the current information of the Intelligence Bureau, the words of the imperial history seem to be inaccurate, and there is no mistake in the biography of the flying princess of the household department. ”

As soon as these words came out, most of the people in the court changed their faces slightly, but they listened to Murong Qian's unhurried words:

According to the information, in the fourth year of Xiqing, Yuwen Kuan, the son of Yuwen family, asked to marry Princess Fei Murong Feixue, at that time Murong Feixue was the eldest daughter of the distant branch of the clan, but there was no title, because her parents were ill for a long time, her family was poor, and Princess Fei was the eldest sister, so after sixteen, she went into business to support her family, sent her parents to the end and raised her younger siblings, and she was not married until she was twenty-three years old.

"Yuwenkuan favored the concubine back then, so after marrying Princess Fei, he agreed before marriage that Princess Fei would continue to do business, and Yuwen's family did not wait for the courtesy of the main room. In the spring of the eighth year of Xiqing, Yuwen Kuan wanted to break the contract, and then the heavenly master invited the princess to enter Chongyang Palace. In July, Princess Fei made a meritorious contribution to the medicine, recognized the queen of the dynasty as her stepmother, and was awarded the title of county lord, and in September she was reconciled with Yuwenkuan. In the eighth year of Xiqing's winter solstice festival, the heavenly master ordered Princess Fei to offer silk. In the following year, the Yellow River was flooded, and there was a war in the northwest, and Princess Fei poured her family funds into the imperial court, in order to show her achievements, Emperor Cheng specially sealed the title of the princess of Fei Princess, and opened the palace to set up officials, which was the second princess to open the palace and set up officials for my dynasty. ”

The prince's face was already slightly blue - he painstakingly arranged the printing of the book, originally to shake the opening of Princess Ping'an's mansion, but he didn't expect it to lead to a big scandal in the princess Yuwen's family! Looking at Murong Qian's smiling face, he couldn't wait to go up and gag him.

Shangshu Province Right Prime Minister Nian Ruojin muttered: "Your Majesty, such old and private things, I am afraid that most of them are hearsay, and in order to sensationalize, what His Royal Highness King Ye said may not be the truth. ”

Murong Qian said with a smile: "The right minister is very worried, and I am also afraid that the rumors are false, but fortunately, the Intelligence Bureau is the most empirical, so everything I play has ironclad evidence, for example, Yuwen Kuan agreed not to treat Princess Fei in the main room, so there is an agreement signed by Princess Fei and Yuwen, and there are two chapters later, which can be compared with the handwriting." If the right minister is interested, I can immediately ask someone to take the materials and verify the handwriting in court, what do you think? ”

Nian Ruojin's face suddenly turned pale, and he shook his hand and said: "King Ye's words are serious, King Ye's words are serious." ”

Murong Qian chuckled and said, "I am not an imperial history, so I don't dare to hear about it, but if it is sensational," he raised his eyebrows slightly: "There is really sensational news in the information, although there are several witnesses to sign it, but it is not enough to confirm that it is true, and I dare not start Your Majesty." ”

Yongnian's eyes flashed, and he said lightly: "If you say it, I will listen to it." ”
