241 The Fallen King (End)
Nan Liujing sat on the boat, watched the lotus lanterns in the lake go out one after another, and spoke softly to Yao Rong.
He didn't know what to talk about, he just wanted to hear more about Yao Rong's voice.
Yao Rong simply hummed a song to him.
[The wanderer looks north, and his hometown is far away.] The soldiers look south, and their hometown is ...... ]
The melody is sad, but it doesn't make people feel down.
This is the wandering song of the Northland.
After humming the song, Gui Sheng's voice just came from the lake: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, where are you?" ”
This is something that Nan Liujing and Gui Sheng have agreed on a long time ago, after all, his identity is different from the past, when the lotus lantern is extinguished, he should return to the dormitory to rest.
"I'm here." Nanliujing answered, picked up the oars, and rowed towards the shore of the lake.
As soon as he came ashore, Gui Sheng immediately pounced, his voice full of worry: "Your Majesty, why did you still go to the lake in the middle of the night." ”
"I'm interested." Nan Liujing smiled and pulled Gui Sheng, "You don't like to stay by the lake, let's go a little farther and talk." ”
Since falling into the lake once, Gui Sheng is indeed a little afraid of water, and he has a bitter face: "Even if you want to go to the lake to play, you should let the Praetorian Guards guard the shore." ”
Nan Liujing said: "This time is different. ”
Gui Sheng didn't ask what was different this time, but nothing happened after all: "Your Majesty, don't do this next time." If you let the people of the Imperial Observatory know, I will definitely give you a few excerpts. ”
Thinking of the people in Yushitai, Nan Liujing rubbed his eyebrows helplessly and sighed, "I know." ”
Because it was the third watch when I returned to the dormitory yesterday, and it was almost the fourth watch when I was lying in bed after washing, Nanliujing got up late the next day without accident.
He first called the head of the Internal Affairs Office and ordered the Internal Affairs Office to create a plaque of "Southern Book House" as soon as possible, and hang it in the Star Picking Palace after it was done.
Subsequently, Nan Liujing dealt with the excerpts sent by the cabinet as quickly as possible, and said to Gui Sheng: "Clean up, I want to leave the palace." ”
Gui Sheng handed the approved fold to the little chamberlain next to him, and asked the little chamberlain to quickly send it back to the cabinet: "Where is Your Majesty going?" ”
"I'm going to visit my uncle in the Dingguo Mansion." Nan Liujing was just about to go out, but he thought of something again, and smiled and knocked his tiger mouth with a folding fan, "By the way, remember to bring the Tai Hospital Courtyard with you." ”
When Nan Liujing arrived at the Dingguo Mansion, he happened to meet the steward of the Dingguo Mansion and was about to go out.
Seeing that Nanliujing was coming, the steward hurriedly saluted.
Nan Liujing asked him where he was going, and the steward made things clear in a few words.
"Back to Your Majesty, today our grandfather had lunch, and when he was walking in the courtyard to eat, his left leg suddenly had a heart-piercing pain. At this time, the little one was just about to take the token of the grandfather of the country and prepare to enter the palace to invite the imperial doctor. ”
Gui Sheng smiled: "This is really a coincidence, Your Majesty just brought the Tai Hospital to visit Grandpa Guo." ”
Isn't it a coincidence that Nanliu Jingxin said, he came to visit his uncle on purpose.
Yao Sheng'an's broken leg has long been unconscious, and now he can feel pain again, which is actually a good thing. So when Nan Liujing saw Yao Sheng'an, he was so painful that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still had a smile on his face.
After taking Yao Shengan's pulse, the hospital came to a conclusion: Yao Sheng'an's leg has indeed regained consciousness, although the leg muscles have atrophied too much, even if he recovers well, it is impossible to return to normal, but as long as he insists on conditioning, he may be able to walk without crutches in the future.
Compared with the recovery of the legs, what surprised the Taiyi even more was Yao Sheng'an's physical recovery.
When the imperial doctor took Yao Sheng'an's pulse last time, Yao Sheng'an's physical foundation was still in a state of serious loss. This loss was very depleting of Yao Sheng'an's life.
But this time, Yao Shengan's pulse is no different from that of a normal person.
Hearing the words of the imperial doctor, Yao Sheng'an's face showed a look that seemed to be crying but not crying. He has been tortured by illness for too long, and he has forgotten what a normal person's body is like.
Nan Liujing was also very happy, and said to Yao Rong: "The wishing star really has an effect. ”
"No, in order to make my little uncle compensate me, when his body is completely recovered, I must add more burdens to him."
Yao Rong smiled: [I think this is a very good idea.] ]
Seeing that Yao Rong was completely on his side, Nan Liujing was even happier.
The queen mother's most painful thing is really him.
After the imperial doctor finished prescribing the medicine and left, Yao Shengan turned his head to look at Nan Liujing and asked why Nan Liujing had come.
Nan Liujing said: "The queen mother gave me a dream last night. ”
Yao Shengan smacked his lips, a little surprised: "Why does Sister never give me dreams." ”
Nan Liujing suddenly laughed: "It's okay, although the queen mother didn't give you a dream, she asked me to bring you a few words." ”
Yao Sheng'an: "......"
Yao Sheng'an looked strange and comforted himself: Okay, at least Sister Ah hasn't completely forgotten about his younger brother.
Nanliu Jingping retreated from everyone and told Yao Sheng'an about the boat trip to the lake.
When Yao Sheng'an showed a look of shock, Nan Liujing said again: "The queen mother also said that after she died, she was recruited to the heavenly palace as an immortal, and she also asked for an elixir from the heavenly palace. It is said that people who use this elixir will be able to strengthen their bodies and turn evil into good fortune......"
Speaking of this, Nan Liujing looked at Yao Sheng'an, who was completely stunned, and patted Yao Sheng'an on the shoulder, following what Yao Rong did to him yesterday.
"In the dream, the queen mother and I unanimously decided to use this elixir on your little uncle. When we made this decision, the elixir disappeared and I woke up. ”
Yao Shengan raised his head and looked at Nanliujing incredulously: "...... That's why you're coming to visit me today with the Tai Hospital? ”
Nan Liujing was happy for Yao Sheng'an: "I also tried my luck, but I didn't expect that dream to be true." ”
Yao Sheng'an trembled his hands and touched his legs.
"Little uncle, the queen mother asked me to tell you that this elixir is for you, not to make you lazy, but to let you cheer up and work with me to govern the world better."
Yao Shengan was very moved, and repeatedly assured Nanliujing that he would definitely put more effort into the government in the future, and would definitely work hard to create a peaceful and prosperous world with him.
Nan Liujing nodded with great satisfaction. Yes, yes, this wishing star is worth it.
Yao Rong felt speechless and funny about Nan Liujing's thing under her banner.
But forget it, it's good to be busy for the sake of the king, and Yao Shengan is busy.
After tossing for noon, no matter how hard Yao Shengan beat his spirits, his face couldn't help showing a look of exhaustion. Nan Liujing didn't disturb him to rest anymore, told him to recuperate well these days, and left the Dingguo Mansion.
It's still early outside, it's hard to get out, and Nanliujing is not in a hurry to go back to the palace, planning to find a restaurant to have some refreshments, and by the way, listen to what's new in Kyoto recently.
On the carriage, Yao Rong asked Nan Liujing curiously: [Why is it so good to your little uncle?] ]
Nan Liujing said: "Yu Private, my little uncle is the only relative of my mother and I in this world. ”
"Ever since I met my uncle, he has always cared about me. I have rarely experienced this kind of care between relatives, so I cherish it very much. ”
Of course, Nanliujing also has many half-siblings.
However, the only relative he admitted in his heart was Yao Shengan.
"Yu Gong, the little uncle is the only remaining bloodline of the Yao family."
"The Yao family has guarded the border for Daye for one hundred and fifty years, and has never failed the Daye royal family, but the royal family owes a lot to the Yao family."
"As the Son of Heaven, I can't chill the heroes anymore."
Therefore, in public and private, he should use the wishing star on Yao Shengan.
After a while, the carriage turned into Suzaku Street and stopped in front of a newly opened restaurant.
Nan Liujing took Gui Sheng and a few guards up to the second floor, and picked a position near the window to sit down.
This is not a meal, there are not many guests in the restaurant, Gui Sheng ordered a few things according to Nanliujing's preferences, and stuffed a corner of broken silver to the shopkeeper, so that the shopkeeper could say something new in Beijing recently.
"If you want to talk about this new thing, the guest officer is really asking the right person."
Seeing that they were richly dressed and generous, the shopkeeper was naturally happy to say a few words: "Recently, a wine shop has opened in the south of the city. ”
Gui Sheng asked, "What's new about opening a wine shop?" ”
Nan Liujing drank a cup of tea: "It seems that this person who opened a wine shop is very novel." ”
The shopkeeper smiled: "Hey, this guest officer is right. This wine shop is a little lady, surnamed Qiu, we all call her Qiu Niangzi. ”
The guest at the next table frowned when he heard this: "There are still women in the capital who sell wine on the street?" What a system this is? ”
The shopkeeper said: "Alas, this Qiu Niang's life is miserable, after her parents died unexpectedly, other uncles and uncles started the idea of her family property, wanting to marry her casually, and then embezzle her family property." Qiu Niangzi saw through the abacus of those relatives, and not only sued those relatives to the yamen with a complaint, but also set up a female household in the yamen. After that, she relied on her own craftsmanship and used the money left by her parents to open this wine shop. ”
The guest at the next table asked, "Female?" What does that mean? ”
Dian Xiaoer explained: "This is a new decree issued by the imperial court. If there is no male in the household, the woman can go to the yamen to set up a female household. Qiu Niangzi was the first person to set up a female household in this dynasty, and she was praised by Lord Jing Zhaoyin, saying what she was...... Oh, say that she is a heroine among women, a model for women! ”
Seeing that the guests at the next table were going to say something, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "It is said that this is a decree issued by His Majesty himself. ”
The guests at the next table suddenly didn't dare to say anything.
Nan Liujing put down the teacup and smiled slightly: "Jing Zhaoyin's evaluation is not wrong, this is indeed a strange woman." I wonder if your restaurant has wine from her wine shop? ”
"Yes! Yes! Our shopkeeper and Qiu Niangzi's father are good friends, so our family's wine is bought from Qiu Niangzi. The shopkeeper said happily, "Does the son want to come to an altar?" ”
Nanliu nodded at the head: "Let's have an altar." ”
After waiting for the shopkeeper to bring the wine, Nan Liujing tried to drink a drink.
"It's really good."
With his vision, if he can praise a good sentence, it means that this wine is really good.
Nan Liujing gave the rest of the wine to the guards, and asked the shopkeeper if there were any other interesting things.
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "There is one more thing, Childe may also be interested." A few days ago, a medical center was opened in the east of the city, called Qingshui Medical Center. The doctor and the apprentice at that clinic were all women. And they only receive female patients, not male patients. ”
The name of Qingshui Medical Center made Nanliujing's heart move.
A guest at another table interjected: "I've heard of this hospital. It is said that Dr. Yang Le of the medical hall is young, but his medical skills are very good. ”
The guess in his heart was confirmed, the corners of Nan Liujing's lips curled slightly, and he said to Yao Rong: "I didn't expect that after so many years, I would be able to hear the name of Yang Le, the child, from other people's mouths." ”
Yao Rongdao: [This shows that the benevolent policy of free private school is meaningful.] ]
The unintentional planting of willows back then finally had a harvest.
Nan Liujing said: "I see a lot of gossip in this capital. ”
Seeing Nan Liujing's contemplative expression, Gui Sheng asked the shopkeeper to retreat first to do other things: "Young master, do you want to stop by the wine shop and the medical hall to have a look?" ”
Nan Liujing shook his head.
It doesn't have to be, but he can do something.
After returning to the palace, Nan Liujing went directly into the imperial study, inscribed the wine shop and the medical hall, and ordered the Internal Affairs Office to make a plaque and send it to the wine shop and the medical hall with great fanfare.
How surprised Qiu Niangzi was after receiving the plaque Not to mention for the time being, in the Qingshui Medical Center, Yang Le was chatting with his brother Yang Tie.
Looking at his sister, who had a somewhat haggard face, Yang Tie said angrily: "Those people are gossiping about you again? ”
Yang Le smiled: "It's okay, they said theirs, I'll do mine." I knew I was doing the right thing. ”
Yang Tie was still very distressed about his sister, and just wanted to say something, when suddenly there was a noisy sound of gongs and drums outside, and the battle was very big.
Then, Yang Le's apprentice stumbled in: "Master, you ...... Let's go out and have a look......"
Yang Le and Yang Tie glanced at each other, thinking that something was urgent, and hurriedly walked out.
But the next moment, they were stunned.
The people from the Internal Affairs Office walked up to Yang Le and said with a smile: "You are Dr. Yang Le." ”
Yang Le nodded: "I am." My lord, this is ......."
The people from the Internal Affairs Office clasped their fists in the direction of the palace: "Your Majesty heard about the Qingshui Medical Center, and specially inscribed the Qingshui Medical Center, you see——"
The people from the Internal Affairs Office stepped aside, revealing the plaque behind them that was tightly covered with red cloth.
"Your Majesty inscribed me?" Yang Le's eyes widened suddenly, and under the urging of the other party, he reached out and lifted the red cloth.
On the plaque, the four words "Doctor's Benevolence" are dancing with dragons and phoenixes.
The plaque was delivered, and the people from the Internal Affairs Office left quickly, but those who were gathered around to watch the excitement came up one after another and asked Yang Le what was going on, and why His Majesty would suddenly inscribe her.
Yang Le looked at the plaque, and suddenly turned his head to look at his brother Yang Tie with tears in his eyes: "Brother, I did it." I really did. I succeeded in getting His Majesty to hear my name from others. ”
Yang Tie is happy for Yang Le, he is the person who knows best how hard Yang Le has worked over the years: "With this plaque, I will see who will dare to chew the root of his tongue in front of you in the future!" ”
Yang Le said: "Your Majesty must want me to become a model for women in the world to follow, so I specially wrote this plaque." ”
She secretly made up her mind in her heart that she must work harder in the future and strive to become the best doctor in the world.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the court to spread the news that it was going to recruit some female officials.
Although the number of female officials is scarce and the grade is not high, this news undoubtedly makes many women excited.
This policy has made many old-fashioned stubborn people dissatisfied.
And some more enlightened families, such as Qu Jianbai's Qu family, such as Liang Guangyu's Liang family, took the lead in responding to the policy and encouraging women with outstanding character and learning in the clan to compete.
In addition to recruiting female officials from major families, Nan Liujing gave the other half of the female official quota to free private schools, and selected suitable candidates from among the outstanding female students who graduated from private schools over the years.
As soon as this move came out, the number of female students in the private school suddenly skyrocketed. The family who was originally reluctant to send their daughter to study was also happy.
- What if their daughter is also chosen to be an official? Even if it is just a petty official of the Nine Grades, for these farmers who have worked for generations, it is enough to change the court and glorify the ancestors!
In the eighth year of Zhaoming, some people offered cotton seeds.
Nanliujing was overjoyed and began to vigorously promote the production and planting of cotton.
In the ninth year of Zhaoming, even the most remote Lingnan areas built free private schools.
In the tenth year of Zhaoming, the Yellow River was governed.
Jiang Dingguang, who had been away from Beijing for many years, returned to the dynasty and was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.
After the ministers feasted and drank, Nanliujing left Jiang Ding in the palace for a small gathering.
Li Guanqi and Qi Si are also there.
Li Guanqi was surprised: "I never expected that the third child, you would be promoted before me." ”
He's just a tobe left-hand waiter at this time.
Jiang Ding smiled: "How can you speak, you will call me Lord Shangshu in the future." ”
For the sake of Jiang Ding's return to Beijing, it was rare for Qi Si not to scold Jiang Ding.
As a result, Jiang Ding was still unhappy: "Fourth, if you don't scold me, I always feel that I am a little unaccustomed." ”
Qi Si: "......"
Qi Si rolled his eyes at Jiang Ding, feeling that this guy was itchy, Jiang Ding patted his chest and said, "It's comfortable." ”
Qi Si almost waved his elbow over: "You're sick, aren't you?" ”
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Ding looked at the specially vacated position: "It's a pity that the eldest brother is not in Beijing." ”
Nan Liujing said with a smile: "Maybe it won't be long before Brother Qi doesn't need to guard the border all year round." ”
Qi Si was the most perceptive: "Is Your Majesty planning to use troops against Dijon?" ”
Nanliujing bowed slightly.
He has been on the throne for ten years.
In the past ten years, the treasury has been full, the imperial court has been stable, and the lives of the people have gradually returned to peace and tranquility, and Daye already has the conditions to launch a large-scale war.
In order to subdue Qu Jianbai, it took him more than a year to write a 10,000-word strategy.
In that strategy, he once described his ideal Daye like this-
The people no longer have to worry about displacement, the DPRK and China no longer have the suffering of the powerful ministers in power, and there is no more chaos of alien races on the border.
Now that the first two are almost complete, it's time to achieve the last one.
In the eleventh year of Zhaoming, King Dijon was seriously ill, and his sons were fighting to the death for the position of heir.
After receiving this news, Nan Liujing smiled slightly, knowing that the time had come to send troops to attack Dijon.
He had been preparing for this day for too long.
At the court meeting the next day, Nan Liujing announced the news of the mobilization of troops against Di Rong, and ordered the household department to immediately prepare grain and grass, and the military department to immediately prepare weapons and equipment to send to the front line.
Yao Shengan came out on the spot and took the initiative to ask to be the grain transport officer for this war.
Li Guanqi, Jiang Ding, and Qi Si also came out one after another, asking to go to the border.
Nanliujing said loudly: "I'm all right." ”
With him sitting in the rear for scheduling, and Yao Shengan and others rushing to the front line to cooperate in the battle, the tragedy that happened to General Yao and them back then will never be repeated in Qi Mingxu.
In October of the 11th year of Zhaoming, the autumn harvest in the north ended, and all the grain and grass materials were also fully deployed.
Qi Mingxu has been training in the north for many years, for this battle to destroy the country.
He was ordered to go on an expedition, but in January, he attacked the royal court of Dijon and captured the third and fifth princes of Dijon alive.
For another seven days, he succeeded in beheading King Dijon.
At this point, Dijon was destroyed, and the territory of Dijon was included in the territory of Daye, and the disaster of the border that lasted for a hundred years finally subsided.
Before the end of the year, the army returned to Korea.
Nan Liujing wore the crown of the Son of Heaven, went to the city gate in person, and stood on the city gate to welcome the triumph of the army.
Qi Mingxu saw Nanliujing's figure from a distance, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and was about to kneel when he stepped forward.
Nan Liujing held him: "The general is in armor, so there is no need to make this big gift." ”
Qi Mingxu changed to a fist salute: "Your Majesty, the minister is fortunate not to be dishonored." ”
At noon on the same day, Nanliujing's reward decree came down: Qi Mingxu was promoted from a second-rank hussar general to a first-rank general with his military exploits, and was given the first marquis of Zhenbei.
For many years after that, Qi Mingxu did not move, and if he moved, it would be a war to destroy the country, constantly expanding the territory of Daye outward, so that the brilliance of the southern scenery was sprinkled to the four seas and eight wildernesses, and he was awarded the title of Zhenbei Duke with his military exploits.
In the fifteenth year of Zhaoming, when inspecting spring ploughing, Nanliujing praised them in front of the people as the cornerstone of Daye and the foundation of Daye.
Subsequently, Nanliujing issued a holy decree to the world, in which he encouraged the people to go to the yamen and inform the yamen officials of some extraordinary encounters they had experienced, so that the yamen officials could record them.
"Next, I will spend a few years building a history book."
"This history book is not written for civil and military officials, not for talented and beautiful people, but only for the most ordinary and ordinary people in the world."
As soon as this decree came out, the world shook.
At first, no one dared to believe that this was true, until someone plucked up the courage to step into the yamen to tell his story and produce evidence to prove that what he said was true, and a small official really wrote down his words and gave him a delicate persimmon pendant as a souvenir.
The yamen was suddenly overcrowded.
It took half a year for all localities to sort out the recorded things and record them in the local chronicles, and some of the more singing and weeping deeds were sent to the imperial court, which were compiled into a book by the historians, and then Nan Liujing himself wrote a preface and distributed it to the world.
In the history of dynasties for thousands of years, this is the first time that the Son of Heaven has written a preface for the commoners and sang praises for the commoners.
In the eighteenth year of Zhaoming, Nan Liujing asked the cabinet to write a holy decree to make his teacher "Taifu".
The teacher of the Son of Heaven is the emperor's teacher, and he can naturally afford the position of Taifu. It's just that the cabinet has never heard of such a teacher.
Someone asked Nan Liujing about the identity and origin of the emperor's name, and Nan Liujing only smiled slightly.
"If there were no teachers, there would be no today's me, let alone today's Zhongxing. She was the one who brought me out of the cold palace, and it was she who taught me how to be a good emperor. ”
"In this world, no one can know what the teacher has done for the world, but I know it all too well."
Qingshi will never record the exploits of his mother, and the Mingjun cultivation system cannot be known to the world, and the world may also fail those who have shed blood and sacrificed for it-
But he must use some special way to let future generations know about the contribution of the queen mother.
In the end, it was Qu Jianbai, who had been appointed as the first assistant of the cabinet, who drafted this holy decree on behalf of the emperor.
When handing over the holy decree to the Son of Heaven, Qu Jianbai said regretfully: "It seems that the minister can't see His Majesty's teacher with his own eyes." ”
Nan Liujing smiled and asked, "Does Master Qu really want to make friends with my teacher?" ”
Qu Jianbai said: "To be able to teach such an excellent student as Your Majesty, Your Majesty's teacher, is definitely a peerless national soldier." Not being able to make friends with such a person is a great regret in my life. ”
The smile on Nan Liujing's face became even brighter: "Can I ask Master Qu for something?" ”
"Your Majesty, please speak."
Nan Liujing said seriously: "Spread this comment." ”
Qu Jianbai instantly guessed Nan Liujing's mind: "Your Majesty rest assured." ”
In the twenty years of Zhaoming, the world was under great rule.
The king of the dead country who once set himself on fire in the Star Picking Palace has finally become the lord of Zhongxing admired by the world.
In his previous life, he was the last remnant of this decaying dynasty, and even if he tried his best, he could only continue to shine for a moment, and then the dynasty fell into the eternal night.
In this life, he has finally become the rising sun of this decadent dynasty.
The sunset will set, and the morning sun will rise. :,,
