Chapter 4 Peony Banquet (3)

Is this Zhao Jiliang, the father that Bao Yuan often says?

Bao Yuan was the first thinker under Gaozu, and he was a servant of the people. In the first year of Mingde, Gao Zu Xu, Bao Yuan succeeded to the throne with the crown prince, and his father supported Gongjia Situ.

Bao Yuan also said that the father felt that Dai Gaozu knew the grace of the encounter from the dedication to assist, since he was pro-government is to personally teach the way of governing the country, the law of Anbang, and then because of the age, unable to do so, so in April of the third year of Guangzheng, the book asked for decentralization, the father led the household department, the door of the servant Lang Wuzhao led the salt and iron, and the Chinese book waiter Zhang Ye led the branch.

The important ministers of the two dynasties are also think tanks, isn't that the prime minister?

Thinking of this, I looked at him, but saw that his eyebrows were charitable, his face was calm, and he did not have half of the power of the whole body, but like an old monk who practiced meditation, I couldn't help but feel more good in my heart, and couldn't help but smile sweeter at him, and said: "Father Xiang is also good at poetry, why don't you give Rui'er a peony inscription poem?" ”

"Hey, my father is old, and I can only praise some other people's poems, and I still let the literati do the elegant thing of inscribed poems." He smiled and waved his big hand, and said, "I have heard that Niangniang likes to learn rhyme books, but if Niangniang does it, let me, an old man, open his eyes." He said and stared at me.

"If the father is too modest, then Rui'er will be ugly." I bowed slightly, turned around and showed Xue Tao's note, pondered for a while, picked up the pen and book, waited for the ink to dry, and handed it to my father.

"The front of the palace is lined up to enjoy the flowers, and the palace maids invade the morning to explore a few times.

Slanting at the flowers and raising his sleeves, he summoned the ministers to come. ”

"Hahahaha, ingenuity! Ingenuity! With the work of the palace to reflect the grandeur of the flower banquet, wonderful! Wonderful! The old man really opened his eyes, but there were no peonies in the flower banquet. ”

"The father praised falsely, and Rui'er was ashamed. In this way, Rui'er took peony as the theme and composed a poem. After that, he put pen to paper and wrote a poem.

Fang Yaofeng and Xiang's father saw Liang Shouzhen running to the front in a panic and said, "Niangniang! Empress! The queen mother selected poems, and the emperor ordered someone to find her mother. "Then he took the paper in my hand and ran.

"Father, why don't we go and see it together?" Since I saw this Zhao Xiang, I don't know why I have a love for my ancestors and grandchildren, and I don't care about any etiquette, I sincerely invite each other.

"It's good! I haven't seen the queen mother and the emperor in the palace today, but I didn't want to meet my mother, so I went with my mother at this moment...... Hahaha, let's ....... "Then I turned sideways and let me go first, and I excused myself, so I had to go with him half a step ahead.

Not long after returning to the flower banquet, all the concubines and palace ladies surrounded the queen mother to enjoy the flowers and poems, and Bao Yuan was also surrounded by more than a dozen courtiers and scholars, who were talking lively. I didn't want to disturb him, but when I saw that Liang Shouzhen had already asked him to go, he waved to this side from afar, and when he saw his father standing next to me, he got up and walked over.

"Father." Bao Yuan smiled and greeted Zhao Jiliang, but saw that I seemed to be familiar with him, so he said: "Rui'er and my father know each other? ”

"I just met my father......" I laughed.

"Chang'er has good eyesight, marrying such a smart and intelligent woman, Niangniang's poetry really opened the eyes of the old minister...... Hahaha......" Zhao Jiliang looked kind, looked at me and laughed loudly.

I was ashamed when I heard this, and whispered a little about the situation that Fang Cai met with his father, and Bao Yuan smiled when he heard it, "It turns out that Fang Cai's father actually discussed poetry with Rui'er, which is very good and wonderful." ”

"Lord Zhao, the Queen Mother is invited." Tian Jingquan came to pay tribute.

Xiang's father went with Tian Jingquan, and Bao Yuan whispered: "Little thing, I hid and went to be idle, and I searched for a long time." As he spoke, he took my hand and walked to the banquet and sat down, and said, "I wanted to introduce two people for you, but I thought you would want to meet, but I couldn't find anyone left and right, I really should fight ......" As he spoke, the inner supervisor had already led two middle-aged Confucian scholars to come forward.

"Ministers, Lieutenants, Shaoqing, Zhao Chongzuo, Chenwu Dejun, Ouyang Jiong, the judge of the lawsuit, see the emperor, see Mrs. Hua Rui." The two of them paid homage.

""Between the Flowers?" I was greatly surprised, and grabbed Baoyuan's sleeves with both hands in excitement, I didn't want to see Ouyang Jiong, the songwriter, today, if I didn't take care of my identity, I would probably have to ask him for an autograph.

Bao Yuan smiled brightly, and whispered to me half-proudly, "I know, little bookworm." After that, he said loudly to the two people: "My concubine likes this book very much, and she often reads it every day without releasing it. ”

I said excitedly: "Lord Zhao's compilation of this collection is of great merit to future generations, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the "Flower Collection" will be famous for centuries. ”

"Thanks to the emperor and the mother's wrong love, the ministers dare not bear it." Zhao Chongzuo said modestly.

While speaking, I suddenly heard Tian Gonggong preaching: "Today's peony flower banquet theme poem selection, there are two poems that are evenly matched, and they are called double kui. Please give it to the Queen Mother. ”

Then everyone stood up and stood up, and the Queen Mother preached: "Recite a spring poem "Good Spring", Ouyang Jiong! ”

"I guess it's Brother Ouyang, congratulations. "Between the Flowers" collects Ouyang brothers' poems and lyrics, which are short and long, and the scenes are blended, I think this "Good Spring" is praised by the Queen Mother and Lord Zhao, and it should be extraordinary. Zhao Chongzuo congratulated Ouyang Jiong.

"Don't dare, concede." Ouyang Jiong returned the courtesy and said humbly.

The Queen Mother then preached on a note: "The other one is not signed, and I will read it to the secretaries, 'The peony moved to the garden and planted, and all the feudal parties entered.'" Before the end of spring, the floor is warm, and several colors are open for a while. 'I want this peony to originate from the Central Plains, moved into the land of my Xishu, before the end of spring in full bloom, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, fragrant and gorgeous, all from this poem to tell the story, do not see the gorgeous rhetoric, close to the people, when it is today's peony masterpiece, but I don't know which Aiqing made it? With that, the phoenix turned his eyes lightly and glanced at everyone.

I whispered to Bao Yuan: "Brother, that's Rui'er's ugly work." ”

Bao Yuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "I guess it's your little bookworm's masterpiece, but I didn't think it was true." Saying that, she happily took me to the Queen Mother and said, "Queen Mother, this is Concubine Xu's work of practicing pen." ”

The Queen Mother was stunned and said in a low voice, "I don't want Concubine Xu to have poetry." Immediately announced aloud: "It turns out that this poem was written by Concubine Xu, Concubine Xu is the daughter of Hanlin, a famous family, inheriting the poetry of Xu Hanlin, and Ouyang Jiong, the judge of the Wude Army, should be tied for double champions, and each will be given ten brocades to show his reward." After speaking, he nodded and smiled at me, with a look of approval in his eyes.

"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother." Ouyang Jiong and I both bowed to thank you.

"Mr. Ouyang's poetry is full of talent, and the concubine's poems are really a class axe, and the Queen Mother is ashamed to give Rui'er a gift, so it is better to give it to Mr. as a gift of apprenticeship." I whispered to Bao Yuan.

"Rui'er has a very good intention" Bao Yuan nodded to me, turned to Ouyang Jiong and said: "Ouyang Aiqing, Concubine Xu wants to worship you as a teacher today, you can point her out when you have time, Aiqing must not push back." After finishing speaking, he gave me a look, and when I saw this, I hurriedly bowed to my teacher, and Ouyang Jiong had no choice but to accept it.

The banquet between the flowers, very lively, Bao Yuan raised his glass and said: "Peony flower banquet, literati and scholars show their abilities, and the poems obtained are all good, and I am very happy." I want to be in Dashu when the sky is advantageous, but also the harmony of the monarch and the minister, now I have a virtuous concubine, there are good ministers and wise people outside, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, this is my great luck is also the great luck of the world! His tone was sonorous, full of energy, and his words were full of emotion in the banquet, and the people in the palace raised wine to congratulate the prosperity of Dashu. A good faction of flowers blooms richly, and the world returns to the heart.
