Chapter 41 The poem has a peach, and the court is half moss
This......
When Xie Qian heard Zhu Youji's words, he finally knew why Zhang Sheng wanted to find him.
Wang Yue's crime of "writing poetry and resentment" undoubtedly involves a play on words, and he is the most proficient in poetry, so he can indeed provide some reference opinions.
It's just that...... This pool of water is very deep!
Wang Yue, the traitor of the civil official group, the person who all the important ministers of the Manchu Dynasty want to kill!
"Master Xie, I don't know what you think about this matter?" Zhang Sheng was not in a hurry to make a statement, but turned his head to look at Xie Qiandao.
Xie Qian couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in his heart, but he knew that now was the time to make a choice, if he couldn't help, there would definitely be no place for him to stand here.
Zhu Youzhu pinched the lid of the tea and splashed the hot tea lightly, but he knew that Xie Qian was a talented person, but it depended on whether this person could be used for himself.
In fact, the officials who can pass the imperial examination are not general, and they only need to find the most loyal and reliable people, and they do not need to pay too much attention to ability.
"Your Majesty, with all due respect, Wang Yue's poems do have resentment, and it is difficult to erase the charges for him!" Xie Qian hesitated, but said very seriously.
Zhu Youji's brows couldn't help frowning slightly, looking at the tea stalks floating on the tea water, this was not the answer he wanted to get, nor was it the courtier he needed.
"Your Majesty, I don't know if you still remember the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Yuxi mentioned to you?" Xie Qian felt Zhu Youji's indifference, but he threw out another question.
Zhang Sheng's eyes looked at Xie Qian complicatedly, this thing is so perfunctory, don't you think that the old love in the East Palace can be reused, it would be too naΓ―ve, right?
Zhu Youzhu knew that Xie Qian did like to bring some private goods in class, so he quietly prepared to taste tea and said: "In the old days, Wang Xie Tang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people, Liu Yuxi's poems are indeed good!" β
"Your Majesty, Wang Yue is not the only official who has been convicted for poetry, Liu Yuxi's experience is actually more twists and turns, and even more wronged!" Xie Qian naturally didn't play the emotional card, and seemed to be painstakingly authentic.
Zhang Sheng suddenly became a little interested, and Zhu Youzhi stopped drinking tea and said, "Thank you, I would like to be detailed!" β
"Your Majesty, 'Zi Mo red dust is blowing on his face, and no one is looking at the flowers; The peach trees in the Xuandu Temple are all planted after Liu Lang goes. This poem is Liu Yuxi's visit to Chang'an Xuandu, is it disrespectful? Xie Qian asked.
Zhu Youzhu exchanged a look with Zhang Sheng, and then shook his head seriously and said, "It's not disrespectful!" β
"Half of the hundred-acre courtyard is moss, and the peach blossoms are clean and cauliflower blooms. Where do the peach Taoist priests go? The former Liu Lang is here again! Is this poem disrespectful? Xie Qian asked again.
Zhang Sheng was an anxious man, and even complained: "Lord Xie, these two poems are the works of interest in visiting the garden, what are you doing with these two poems?" β
Zhu Youzhu knew that Xie Qian couldn't throw out these two poems for no reason, but no matter how you look at them, these two poems have nothing to do with disrespect.
Liu Yuxi traveled to Luoyang and Chang'an at the age of nineteen, and gained a high reputation in Shilin, and was able to enter the official career in the ninth year of Zhenyuan, and Zhenyuan was appointed as a member of Tuntian in the twenty-first year of Zhenyuan, becoming the core figure of the innovation group, but Yongzhen's innovation failed, and Liu Yuxi and other eight people were demoted to Yuanzhou Sima. Ten years later, Liu Yuxi was recalled to Beijing, only to be hated by Wu Yuanheng and others, the first poem was made at this time, and the poem "Xuandu Guanli peach thousand trees, all Liu Lang went to plant", because the peach blossom has the meaning of flattering villain, so it is believed that Liu Yixi is ironizing the new courtiers are flattering villains, so he was relegated to the place! Xie Qian spoke eloquently.
Zhu Youji's mouth opened slightly, he is really knowledgeable everywhere, and this interpretation is also ...... Amazing, right?
Zhang Sheng swallowed his saliva, but asked curiously: "There are no peach blossoms in the second poem, how can it be related to disrespect?" β
Liu Yuxi returned to Chang'an after being demoted for 14 years, when it was March of the second year of Tang Wenzong's reign, he revisited the Xuandu Temple and wrote the second poem "Revisiting the Xuandu Temple": half of the 100-acre courtyard is moss, and the peach blossoms are clean and cauliflower blooms. Where do the peach Taoist priests go? The former Liu Lang is here again! Your Majesty, if you compare the Xuandu View to the court, Your Majesty thinks that half of the hundred-acre court is moss, and this poem is respectable? Xie Qian's gaze fell on Zhu Youzhu and asked bitterly.
The corners of Zhu Youji's mouth twitched slightly, and he had to smile bitterly: "If you interpret it like this, Liu Yuxi is indeed very disrespectful!" β
"Wang Yue's crimes have two songs, namely "Crossing the Red Stone Mountain": the winter is righteous and strict, and the Red Stone Mountain is high and high; The wind blew tears in his eyes, and the frost froze into ice on his beards. Pinghu is not only like catching a tiger, why should it be like raising an eagle; I remember passing through this place last year, the iron clothes sweated bitterly. "The Second Rhyme Answers Ma Dali Tianlu": After several battles, looking back on the micro-labor is always empty. I am often ashamed of the wise, who does not laugh at the foolish man who moves mountains. I love to drink three-point wine in my spare time, and I am ashamed to talk about two stone bows when I am old. There is no way to repay the false grace, how dare Ge Yi complain about the miserable wind. The inappropriateness of the first song is that 'why should the general be like raising an eagle', which is disrespectful to the first emperor, and the second song is even more disrespectful, and the resentment is more straightforward! Xie Qianyan turned to the right and changed his course.
Zhang Sheng couldn't help but sigh, Liu Yuxi's two garden poems could be degraded by the imperial court at that time, and Wang Yue's conviction seemed to be unjust.
"Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, the real reason why Wang Yue was convicted back then was not these two poems!" Xie Qian had already made a decision in his heart, and even revealed.
Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but be stunned, and said in confusion: "I don't know which one?" β
"The poem that really angered the first emperor was "Lishan Nostalgia": The lonely Lishan locks the sunset, and I don't feel tears staining my clothes. Youwang Fenghuo entertained him, and the Tang Emperor bathed in the hot spring concubine. Fangcao has hatred and emptiness to grow old, and the falling flowers are speechless for who to fly. In the spring, there are many birds crying in the embroidered ridge, which seems to be right and wrong to pedestrians. Xie Qiandao.
When Zhang Sheng heard this poem, he seemed to be enlightened and said: "This poem quotes King Zhou You and Bao Xi, Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, so this is a metaphor for Emperor Chenghua and Wan Guifei, but is it so?" β
"Yes, it is precisely because this poem angered the first emperor with the use of ancient and modern poems, and others fanned the flames at that time, and the first emperor was angry and sent Wang Yue to Anlu!" Xie Qian restored the truth of the year.
Zhu Youzhu silently took a sip of tea and found that these scholars were really good at playing word games.
Zhang Sheng nodded thoughtfully, but still said with a sad brow: "Although we know the truth about Wang Yue's crime back then, this poem is too far-fetched, and the Criminal Department will definitely not agree to exonerate Wang Yue from the crime!" β
"If you really want to pick any poems, you can always find some faults! Wang Yue's poems are too resentful, so the faults of his poems are more prominent, and this sin is even more difficult to get rid of! If you want to solve this problem, I'm afraid there is only ......" Xie Qian stopped, looking at Zhu Youzhi with deep meaning, and there were some words that he hesitated to say all.
Zhu Youji's heart moved slightly, but he put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Master Xie, you mean to completely muddy the water, right?" I immediately ordered the Beizhen Fusi to collect all the poems of the officials in the court, and you can help them find faults, and Du Ming, the secretary of the Criminal Department, can take care of them! β
"Huh?" Zhang Sheng heard that Zhu Youzhu had already started to solve the problem, so he opened his mouth in hindsight.
Xie Qian found that he had really despised Zhu Youji's wisdom earlier, and he didn't need to make his own suggestions to already understand the mystery, so he respectfully bowed his hand and said, "The minister's order!" β
"It's settled, you guys should step back first!" Zhu Youzhi saw that the matter had found a solution, and he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why this matter came to this point was that Wang Yue was bitten by the criminal department, which was actually related to his own rush.
The civil official group and Wang Yue may not really be endless, but when they learned that they were going to use Wang Yue's prime minister, they were biting Wang Yue's accusations and were only willing to let Wang Yue pardon the crime instead of removing it.
If he quietly helped Wang Yue get rid of the crime in advance, and then used Prime Minister Wang Yue's salt administration, then the first step would not have such a big resistance, and the second step would be a matter of course.
It's just that this is the case, and it is impossible to tear it down and start over, after all, it is to underestimate the fighting wisdom of the civilian clique.
Eat a trench, grow a wisdom.
Even if it comes from later generations, IQ and vision are naturally suppressed, but they have to plan everything before they act, and at the same time, they must step up to recruit more resourceful people for their own use.
In the afternoon, Erya walked in worriedly and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager asked you to go to Qingning Palace, I heard that Qingyun Hou is there!" β
