Chapter 8, the whole family wins with the wise man
The other two were also full of surprise.
Lu Zhaoyi smiled calmly and replied: "The society is stable, the people's livelihood is prosperous, and the majesty of the Son of Heaven can be revealed." If the court is decaying, the people are suffering, and the dignity of the Son of Heaven is being maintained? ”
"What Qi Niang said is extremely true!" Yuan Fanglang smiled, "Sure enough, she is a smart woman, no wonder she was accepted as a disciple by the military teacher." ”
Lu Zhaoyi was silent with a smile, and looking at Yu Yan and Lin Zhong, they were also smiling and kept approving.
Suddenly, Lin Zhong's eyes lit up and he asked, "Lu Niangzi, have you ever read "Shangshu"?" ”
Suddenly, she knew that she was not over the test, and turned her head slightly, indicating that she had read it.
Seeing her nodding, Yu Yan said again, "The following exam questions are a test of talent, please listen carefully to Mrs. Lu." ”
This time, instead of responding immediately, she fell into a deep groan, seemingly a little troubled.
Yu Yan asked: "In "Shangshu, Shangshu, Yixun", there are only three winds and ten sorrows, and the secretary has one body, and the family will be mourned; If the king has one body, the kingdom will perish. His subordinates are not good, and their punishment is trained in the ...... of the Mengshi."
"Please Lu Niangzi, discuss this topic."
This question was not difficult for her, so she raised her head and discussed it at length in front of the three recommenders through the screen.
It was not until the sky was dark and the candle night light was held that the evaluation was over.
Immediately, the three of them were about to get up and leave, Yuan Fang paused, thought for a moment, and then spoke again: "There is a matter that Your Majesty has entrusted me to ask, and I also asked Qi Niang to convey it to the military advisor." ”
At the mention of this, she trembled, her raised hand trembled slightly, and only after a while did she say, "Please Yuan Shaocheng, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"Now that His Majesty has been on the throne for more than a month, the Great Yuan Dynasty has been established at the beginning, and the world is gradually peaceful. According to the usual practice, His Majesty should be the ancestor of Wu Gong and the Xia family, seal the Taimiao, and enjoy the ancestral hall, and His Majesty also wants to hear the opinions of the military advisor. ”
Hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi came to his senses, and it turned out that he was asking about this matter.
"Okay, tonight, Qi Niang will repair a book and send it to Gouchen Courtyard, and ask him to make a decision."
After speaking, she slowly got up, sent the three recommenders away, and stood at the door with light steps, her expression gradually becoming solemn.
In her mind, she kept recalling the words she had said to Wu Gong before he died.
"Zhaoyi, remember, Lone doesn't want to be the emperor, and he doesn't want to be the emperor. Lonely in this life can only be a minister of this dynasty, never be the king of the new dynasty, if he ascends to the supreme position one day, you must tell him what I mean. ”
In my memory, the old man stood in the ice and snow, holding a red tassel gun, pacing in the palace of King Yuan.
"What nonsense is the lord talking about? When you are well, go to Luojing and tell him in person, okay? ”
"Hahahaha...... the old man raised his head and looked up to the sky and laughed, "Zhaoyi, you don't have to comfort Lone, Lone knows that his body is running out." However, Lone has regrets that he can't see the day you and Pei'er met. ”
Halfway through speaking, he raised his hand and gestured to the sky, "I look forward to the day when I will be alone in the sky, and I can watch you wear a phoenix crown and a phoenix robe, and work side by side with Pei Er to create the world you described." Hahahaha......"
Recalling this, Lu Zhaoyi's face was full of sadness, but the figure of the old man had always lingered in her mind.
……
Returning to Yutang Garden, she wrote a letter, and at the end, the pen and ink fell from the tip of the pen and stained the silk towel, she pulled a handkerchief with her right hand, and put the pen aside with the other hand, and quickly wiped it up.
But the more she wiped, the more blurry it became.
Seeing this, she sighed lightly, only blamed herself for being distracted, and changed a clean silk towel and wrote a new one.
This night, for Lu Zhaoyi, was quite quiet, but for the rest of the Lu family, it was a sleepless night.
The next day, she was sitting at the dresser, and Hanazhi was arranging her makeup and hair.
Soon, there were bursts of hurried footsteps outside, but it was Gu Man who rushed over from outside.
Seeing him so frizzy, Huazhi stuck out his tongue, "Xiaoman, you are also ten years old, you can't break into Qi Niang's boudoir like this in the future." ”
However, Gu Man turned a deaf ear, ran directly to Lu Zhaoyi, and shouted "not good"!
Seeing him so flustered, it was Lu Zhaoyi himself, but he was very indifferent, "Did the Lu family chase Yutang Garden?" ”
"Qi Niang." Gu Man's eyes widened, "The entire Lu family's males, as well as the collateral nephews, are all outside. ”
Lu Zhaoyi was not in a hurry, took a cup of tea casually, rinsed his mouth, took out two more letters, and handed them to him.
"These two letters, you go and hand them over to Shadow Cloud."
To say that before, only women had entered and exited the Yutang Garden in the East Courtyard.
And now, after Gu Man went out with the letter, the entire courtyard was crowded with the men of the Lu family, and even the elders of the clan were crowded in this small courtyard.
"Qi Niang, come out. Come out and explain to me, why can you be raised to filial piety? ”
An old man with gray hair and a cane in his hand stood at the door and shouted, "Lu Qiniang, you are a woman, you don't think about marriage, don't know how to be popular, and don't carry the four virtues, but you want to be like a man, vainly trying to check the candidates, so that the Lu family will have a hundred years of reputation and lose face, what do you want?" ”
He roared as he slammed the bluestone bricks under his feet with his cane, looking distressed.
"Patriarch!"
A group of Lu Jiazi, who were directly related to the side branches, rushed over to support his old body, for fear that something would happen to him.
Inside, there was no movement.
The Lu family has been over seventy years old, and their eyes are round, and they tremblingly raise their hands and point to the room, "Evil obstacles!" If you don't come out, I'll break in. ”
As an elder of the family, it is not inappropriate to take a group of juniors to surround the door of the female family's courtyard, let alone break into the dormitory, you can imagine how much the Lu family takes her seriously.
Lu Zhaoyi sighed and raised his forehead, "Huazhi, you go out and say I'm sick." ”
Hua Zhi received the order and was about to go out, but when he walked to the door, he suddenly came back and said in surprise: "Qi Niang, Master Hou is actually here." ”
When she heard this, she was shocked, which was also unexpected.
When they went to the window, they saw Lu Chengye walking slowly from the crowd, as a military general, exuding murderous aura at this time, and walked in front of the patriarch step by step.
"What do you want to do?" Huazhi asked in a whisper.
Seeing outside, Lu Chengye stared sharply into the patriarch's eyes, without the slightest intention of retreating.
"Although my Lu family is not as prosperous as it was a hundred years ago, there is always a minimum of courtesy, righteousness and shame. Now, the patriarch led people to break into the Seventh Sister's Boudoir, is there still a little bit of the demeanor of the elders? ”
His voice was cold and hard, and his tone was tough, which made the patriarch immediately speechless, and said angrily: "She is no longer the Lu family, what kind of elders are she talking about." And you ......."
The patriarch's hand trembled slightly, pointing at him, "As an important minister of the new dynasty, you actually connived at her to inspect and select officials, yin and yang are reversed, and etiquette is broken. ”
"Why, all crammed here?"
Suddenly, a gentle and charming female voice came.
Everyone turned their heads to look, but saw a woman in a green dress, walking in with a few maids, and the woman who was the leader was Lu Chengye's Aunt Qiao in the second room.
Aunt Qiao, swaying closer, pulled Lu Chengye's sleeve, pursed her lips and complained: "Master Hou, the seventh sister is young, and she has done something that no woman in the world dares to do, which can be described as unprecedented." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and looked at the patriarch with a pair of affectionate eyes, "But the patriarch said that the seventh sister was raised to filial piety, because of the reversal of yin and yang, and the world was punished, so the wife of Wu Ding of the Shang Dynasty is good, and she led the army to fight, what is this?" ”
"This ......"
The patriarch was stunned, but he couldn't answer.
"What's more, this matter is Your Majesty's will, if the patriarch is not angry, he can go to the palace to complain to His Majesty, what is the majesty in the house?"
In just a few words, Aunt Qiao resolved her grievances, and the Lu family's sons and nephews also bowed their heads and remained silent.
After all, in Lu Chengye's eyes, these unusable wastes might as well be dead, and they could save the Hou Mansion's silver expenses.
Under the leadership of the servants in the house, everyone withdrew from the courtyard one after another, and Lu Chengye also had official business, but Aunt Qiao was still standing here, watching everyone retreat, before turning her head and going down to the door of the inner room.
"Everyone is gone, the seven sisters have seen enough, right? Don't show up yet? ”
She was the only one left, smiling on her cheeks, standing there, there was an unspeakable weirdness.
