The land in the capital is expensive, and the only place suitable for fish farming is Beihaizi in Rizhongfang, but it has long been a private forbidden place for the elite circle in the capital.

Not to mention that Zhang Sui was born in an ordinary military household, even Qian Fu, who was born in the Jiangnan Wang family, could not afford to buy a fish pond, let alone place grass carp there to feed within the specified day.

The best way is not to find a fish pond, but to foster grass carp in the pond of a powerful family.

Zhang Sui felt Qian Fu's contemptuous attitude, and he didn't want to say more, but now he is even more reluctant to answer the question of this leader.

At this time, Liu Jin's figure appeared again in front of the guardrail of Tingchao Pavilion, but he said seriously: "Your Majesty is here, all the adults should pay respects!" ”

"Honorable Ministers, Holy Bow!" Twelve officials, including Hanlin Xiu Liu Cunye, learned that His Majesty was already in the Tingchao Pavilion, and immediately saluted in a proper manner.

This pavilion is an ideal place to relax, where you can enjoy the surrounding scenery and take a break.

Since he didn't plan to meet in front of the pavilion, Zhu Youzhu continued to sit on the second floor drinking tea and enjoying the scenery, and Liu Jin stood in front of the guardrail in front of him to pass the word.

Liu Jin cleared his throat and said straight to the point: "In March last year, His Majesty summoned all the adults here to participate in the Little Chuanyu. The end of the year has arrived, and Your Majesty has summoned you to return with fish to see your results! ”

Hanlin Xiu Liu Cunye swallowed and foamed, and couldn't help but get nervous in his heart.

He has enjoyed the scenery of the champion for a year, and the days are as moisturized as he wants, and he has forgotten about the little rumor in the first few months, but he didn't expect that he should have come.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request!" Hanlin edited Qian Fu's eyes rolled, but he suddenly stood up and pleaded.

Liu Jin glanced at Zhu Youjiao, and then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister was fortunate to participate in the New Year's Day court meeting for the first time this year, when the poetry burst out, and occasionally won a good poem, so I would like to take this opportunity to dedicate to Your Majesty." Qian Fu seemed to be prepared, and took out the poem from his sleeve and said.

Liu Cunye and Jin Gui's eyes flashed with jealousy, although this Qian Fu has always been unmatched, but this person's poetry talent is indeed unmatched.

Now Qian Fu is taking this opportunity to present poems, undoubtedly wanting to impress this high-ranking emperor through his talent, so as to win the favor of His Majesty.

Zhu Youzhu knew that Qian Fu was indeed a rare poet, so he said lightly to Liu Jin: "Present it!" ”

For the time being, the bird traveled to Zichen, and the nine-fold side music played Fangchen.

The dragon tower is high and the galaxy is near, and the phoenix calendar is new at the beginning of the year.

The dawn gradually divides into three halls, and the bells scatter into Wanjiachun.

The ministers are blessed with Enbowo, and they are willing to serve Hua to bless the Holy Spirit.

……

The poem was quickly sent to it, and then recited by Liu Jin on the spot.

The "Bird Walk" in this poem refers to the ranks of the courtiers, from the initial audience to the music, and then according to what Qian Fu saw and thought, skillfully demonstrated the majesty of the Son of Heaven by singing the praises of Fengtianmen, and finally expressed Qian Fu's loyalty.

"Awesome!"

After Xu Hong and the others listened to the content of this poem, they also cast admiring glances at Qian Fu in front of them.

Zhang Sui saw the smug Qian Fu in his eyes, but shook his head gently. Although the Qian Fu in front of him is very talented, it does not meet his appetite, and the poem has no practical value.

"Your Majesty, please comment!" Qian Fu was very satisfied with his excellent work, so he confidently made a request.

Zhu Youzhu took the poem sent by Liu Jin, but the conversation changed: "Qian editor, I heard that your grass carp has entered your stomach?" ”

"Your Majesty, indeed...... Indeed! The grass carp could not survive in the bathtub at all, and the minister thought that the things should be used to the fullest, so that he could sit and watch the fish die, and it was better to boil the soup and drink the wine. At that time, the minister specially wrote a poem for the grass carp, and also wanted to dedicate the grass carp poem to His Majesty! Qian Fu saw that he was about to go around to the most embarrassing thing for himself, and immediately threw out the words that he had already prepared.

Liu Jin glanced at Qian Fu, who took out the poem, and said lightly: "Qian editing, there is no need to dedicate poems, you should reflect on it now!" ”

Yes?

Qian Fu had already taken out more than half of the grass carp poem, thinking that he would dispose of the grass carp so freely that he might be able to get the emperor's favor, but when he found that this was not the case at all, he was immediately dumbfounded.

Xu Hong and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although they all admired Qian Fu's talent very much, but the practice of directly cooking grass carp soup was simply ignoring the emperor's authority.

Now that His Majesty is being treated like this, it can be said that he is very happy.

Zhu Youzhu glanced at Qian Fu's poems, but said lightly: "Qian Fu, you won't comment on this poem, I am a little poetic today, so I will give you a poem!" ”

"Poetry? The emperor composes poems? ”

"Does your Zhu family have the gene to compose poetry?"

"No matter how bad it is, I can't laugh out loud!"

……

Qian Fu was still very frustrated just now, but when he heard that Zhu Youzhu not only refused to comment on his masterpieces, but also wanted to compose poems, his heart swelled with deep disdain.

Zhang Sui and Xu Hong glanced at each other, and then looked up at the second floor, feeling more worried. After all, there was really no poet emperor in the Ming Dynasty, and what he did was just limerick poetry.

Zhu Youzhu took the tea handed over by Han Youying, then looked at the sky and recited: "The vast and sorrowful day is slanting, and the whip points to the end of the world." Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers. ”

In just 28 words, it shows the poet's broad mind, reveals a rare and valuable life values, and has the ideological and emotional capacity that encompasses the world and the world, which can be called the pressing work of Ding'an poems.

Zhu Youzhu didn't want to be so high-profile, this is really too dazzling, but it is very appropriate at this moment.

Syllable!

Qian Fu, who was still waiting to watch the play just now, seemed to have been slapped suddenly, and even accompanied by an echo, and he himself looked up at the Tingchao Pavilion in disbelief.

This......

Zhang Sui and Xu Hong were also extremely shocked, looking extremely surprised and looking at each other.

The man in front is full of pride, but the realm of "falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud to protect flowers" is even higher, and the implication is incomparably far-reaching.

Han Youying, who was making tea, opened her cherry lips slightly, and was shocked by this man again.

Zhu Youzhang's original intention was not to show off his talents, but to give some people a piece of advice, so he handed Liu Jin a look and signaled him to continue.

It's just that since the matter has happened, then Zhu Youzhu is afraid that in addition to the reputation of a tyrant, he will be mixed up with the name of a poet again.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been taken care of by his mother since he was a child, and he has always stretched out his hands with clothes and opened his mouth with food, and his ten fingers do not touch the spring water. Last year, I suddenly needed to take care of the grass carp, although the minister immediately repaired the book and returned home to ask about the method of raising fish, but the grass carp died in less than ten days, please punish Your Majesty! Liu Cunye didn't have as many crooked bowels as Qian Fu, so he chose to confess directly.

Zhang Sui glanced lightly at Liu Cunye, who was kneeling in front of him, although he was not very malicious towards this Liu Cunye, but he did not have much good feelings.

Liu Jin had already received Zhu Youzhang's clear instructions, so he announced lightly: "Liu Xiuzhuo, you have been entrusted by Your Majesty, now you should reflect on it!" ”

"Command!" Liu Cunye felt that his reasons were very sufficient, and introspection was just a process, so he immediately gave a proper manner.

At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Tanhualang Jin Gui, although Jin Gui was the lowest ranked of the three, but he became the first optimistic prime minister.

Jin Gui was born in the Jiangnan Wang family, his father was experienced in Wenzhou Mansion, and he studied under Yang Yiqing, who came into contact with officialdom earlier than ordinary people, and is well versed in the rules of the game of officialdom.

Now only twenty-six years old, it can be said that he is a young man, because of his exquisite life, but he is valued by his fellow Hanlin bachelor Cheng Minzheng.

Different from the champion and the list in front of him, the wooden basin in his hand was filled with clear water, and a vigorous grass carp was swimming in it, but he successfully raised the grass carp to the present.

"The ministers and servants take turns to take care of them, fortunately, they live up to their mission, please return the grass carp to their original owners today!" Jin Gui stepped forward and knelt down, and his voice was very loud and authentic.

Qian Fu and Liu Cunye's eyes were full of confusion and jealousy, and now that Jin Gui has successfully returned the grass carp, not only does he not need to reflect, but he is likely to be rewarded.

Today is Zhang Yong's turn, and he immediately led the two eunuchs forward.

Hey?

Xu Hong and the others saw a little eunuch take out an atlas and compare it with the grass carp, as if they suddenly thought of something, and silently exchanged glances.

"In this way, some people are smart but are mistaken by cleverness!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"You wait, this Tanhualang's fate is even worse!"

……

Zhang Sui and Xu Hong stood side by side, and after seeing the little eunuch hurriedly go upstairs, he said very firmly.

Jin Gui naturally saw this strange move in his eyes, and also realized that he had made a mistake, and suddenly a large number of beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Jin Bianxiu, this bullying is not a small crime, are you sure that the grass carp you brought back was not frozen by Li Daitao?" Liu Jin suddenly asked seriously.

Jin Gui suddenly felt a huge pressure, but he knew that now was going to be a major political adventure. While the rewards for success are great, the cost of failure is equally significant, making it a dilemma.

"Jin Gui, you still confessed, you can't live at all in the bath!" Qian Gui had already reacted, even if he was contemptuous.

Jin Gui glared at Qian Gui hatefully, and reported honestly: "Your Majesty, after the minister entered the Hanlin Academy, he didn't dare to relax for a moment, so he studied the scriptures and history, and the grass carp was mainly taken care of by the servants. In his spare time, Ranchen will take care of the grass carp carefully, and he did not find anything about Li Daitao, and asked His Majesty to investigate. ”

Xu Hong and Zhang Sui glanced at each other, but shook their heads gently, knowing in their hearts that this shrewd Tanhualang had shifted the responsibility to his servant.

"Jin Bianxiu, do you really think that Your Majesty can be deceived by you? According to the Jinyi Guard, your servant has changed eight fish one after another! If you don't notice one, it's understandable, but if you don't notice any eight, it's clear that you deliberately connived and pretended not to know! Liu Jin was condescending, looking at the clever Tanhualang playfully.

Jin Gui suddenly sweated like rain, and hurriedly confessed his mistake: "Your Majesty, the minister is indeed negligent, and please punish Your Majesty!" ”

Xu Hong and the others raised their heads one after another, but they were curious that His Majesty would deal with these three first-class jinshi like this.

"I thought I was a good talent, but what you did made me very disappointed! Since you have broken your word, then the Hanlin Academy can no longer stay, Liu Cunye will be released to Xingguozhi County, Qian Fu will be released to the Qiongzhou Mansion to promote the official, and Jin Gui will be demoted to the ambassador of Leizhou Fucang! Zhu Youzhu took a sip of tea, and it was a thunder punishment.

Yes?

Qian Fu and Liu Cunye were dumbfounded, but they were directly demoted to the rank of magistrate and magistrate, but they never expected that they would be dealt with so much today.

No way!

Jin Gui stared in disbelief, just now he was the most promising minister, but now he was following in the footsteps of Yang Tinghe and reduced to a small ambassador of Zhengjiu Pincang.

The three Hanlin officials were originally the prime ministers of a country, and they were the first batch of Hanlin officials of the Hongzhi Dynasty, but now they have all been degraded and fell from the world to the ground at once.

Although Zhang Sui, Xu Hong and others were surprised, they also felt that Zhu Youzhang's approach was very sacred, and they realized the true intention of the poem.

Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers!

This verse is obviously for Liu Cunye and others who were demoted, but I don't know if they can understand His Majesty's intentions, and His Majesty's talent is really a little scary.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a negative trust, please punish Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, this fish has been replaced!"

"Your Majesty, the minister is fortunate to have fulfilled his mission and will return the grass carp to its original owner today!"

……

After Liu Cunye and the other three were convicted, the next nine people expressed their positions one after another, but some were happy and some were worried.

There are only four people who can really return things to their original owners, in addition to Zhang Sui and Xu Hong, the other two are Yu Ming, the director of the Ministry of Works, and Qian Sen, the director of the Ministry of Households.

"Zhang Tai and the others, although you have not been able to complete His Majesty's exam questions, but in time to send the grass carp to the Taiye Pool in advance, you can be promoted to a level without passing the three-year assessment!" Liu Jin announced his will.

Zhang Tai and the others thought that they would be punished, but they didn't expect to be rewarded, so they immediately said respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

"Xu Hong, Yu Ming, Qian Sen, the three of you can be true to the monarch, so you are promoted to one level!" Liu Jin announced again.

Xu Hong and the other three suddenly felt a burst of ecstasy in their hearts, and said in a proper manner: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long Grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Zhang Sui!"

"The minister is here!"

"You raise grass carp fat, it is the most of the twelve, last year there was carp valley, and now the governor of Luzon has been moved, I hope to continue to relieve your majesty's worries!" Liu Jin took a deep look at Zhang Sui, who was not good-looking, and rewarded him.

Governor of Luzon?

Everyone present was stunned and looked at Zhang Sui in disbelief.

From a small imperial history to the governor of Luzon, although the governor of Luzon is in Nanyang, and the place under his jurisdiction does not belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but the status has actually risen.
