Volume II: Chapter 81 State Turmoil
I didn't expect my nickname to spread to Nan'an so quickly, even this beautiful ...... The perfect Wei Ziyu Wei has heard it, and it is obvious that the half of the poem he made has naturally been circulated everywhere!
Turning his head to look at Sima Yan today, he found that this person was not behind him, he scolded in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only say a few polite words to Wei Ziyu, he really didn't have a poetic talent, and he couldn't stand it to let such a man praise him.
Ziyu often thinks in private, what kind of artistic conception can think of such a poem, it is a pity, such a way to think of such a poem, such a way of thinking, how should the remaining half of the poem be continued?
The look in Wei Ziyu's eyes was definitely envy and regret, Sedum suddenly felt that he was really guilty of letting such a person feel regretful, he really couldn't do this in the future!
"Lord Wei is overrated, you came to ask me, but I didn't know that I could really only do half a poem, the following ...... I really can't think of it, and it's actually even more regrettable for me, so it's better not to mention it. ”
Wei Ziyu seems to feel the same way, and it can be seen that this person also likes poetry and other things very much, so he naturally understands the pain of thinking hard and not having the next poem!
Wei Ziyu waved his hand, and the officials behind him immediately ordered all kinds of gifts to be sent, more than ten loads, and there were even some delicate tableware and other items such as porcelain, bowls and chopsticks among the gifts, which showed that this gift was also very attentive.
"Your Majesty governs the country with benevolence and righteousness, and attaches great importance to learning, especially the kind of talented people, who are thirsty for talent, but I don't know that His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is a rare poetic talent, I will definitely show Your Majesty, let him take the time to meet you. ”
"Didn't Your Majesty arrange for the Mid-Autumn Festival to be received after the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Sedum asked.
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is also the process of parade of the gods, according to the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, that is, to symbolically meet foreign envoys on that day, but don't you pay much attention to it, especially a poetry celebrity like His Royal Highness!"
"What's that? I'm really not a celebrity, I'm not a celebrity!" Sedum said modestly.
"Your Majesty loves the article meeting very much, and often holds poetry and literature meetings in private, which probably affects the government very much, and the old ministers of the country have a lot of complaints, but I can't lose the tradition of carrying the Tao in the Tang Dynasty, right?"
Wei Ziyu doesn't seem to be suspicious of Sedum, and he says anything, which also shows that this person really likes Sedum, and this person speaks gently, has clear eyes, and a sincere attitude, and is indeed able to attract good impressions, and Sedum has a good impression of him.
"After all, poetry is a small way, and it is always much worse than my Dajin Yizhai Pavilion's book to prove the Tao! ”
This yin and yang strange words were naturally said by Lu Bancheng, who was snubbed by Wei Ziyu, as the head of Honglu Temple, Lu Bancheng could only be the deputy envoy of the mission, and he was originally dissatisfied, but the prospect of the sky asked him to treat the literati of the Southern Tang Dynasty with words to correct the name of the literature of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Lu Bancheng originally despised it in his heart, of course, for this little prince, but he also had the heart to prove his meaning in the Southern Tang Dynasty.
He could have not spoken about today's matter, Wei Ziyu didn't look for him, but such a beautiful man appeared until now and he has not looked at himself directly, Lu Bancheng seems to have a sour breath in his chest and wants to express it.
In terms of diplomatic etiquette, Lu Bancheng naturally did not make any mistakes, and the entire mission did things according to his suggestions, and Sedum also respected his decision, but when it came to debate, Lu Bancheng, who was able to speak well in the past, immediately showed his edge as soon as he opened his mouth.
Wei Ziyu looked at him a little surprised, he had the impression that this person was the Honglu Temple Zhengqing of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he remembered it when he was introduced by others just now, but this person did not impress him.
At this time, he suddenly spoke, and the spearhead was directed at Tang Guoce's text, and the words that the poems were just small paths made him very disliked.
"This lord ......" Wei Ziyu spoke in a gentle voice, and at the same time turned to look at Lu Bancheng and said, "Listen to what you mean, it seems that you look down on such a small way as Shiwen?"
Sedum nodded and emphasized: "It's Xiaodao, Xiaodao!"
Lu Bancheng nodded and said: "Although poetry and writing do have the merit of cultivating sentiment, but it is not of much use to governing the country, the sage said that the people of the world should be the most important, the people do not know the etiquette should be edified, the people do not know the text should be shown, all teach the character of Caohui ......!"
Before he finished his words, he saw that Wei Ziyu was already shaking his head and waving his hand: "This is ...... bad!"
Sedum: "Useless useless ......!"
"The way of poetry and literature shows the feelings of the literati, and the reader should take the world as his own responsibility, but how many people can do it? Even if you are talented through the heavens and latitudes, but in the eyes of others, you are like a peddler and a pawn, only from the poems can you see your cultivation and ambition, how can you help the common people without splendid beauty in your chest?"
Sedum: "Bad...... It's ......!"
"There are thousands of ravines in the chest, thousands of miles of ambitions, since you should devote yourself to the society, the Great Jin Dynasty will follow the words of the sage to open a science and take scholars, and recruit students and talents from all over the world! Taoism as for the society should be ...... from this!" Lu Bancheng said again.
"Dajin has studied the imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty, which is of course a good thing, but the strategy test in the examination is probably also based on the old calendar of the Tang Dynasty, so what is the difference between high and low?"
Wei Ziyu's words gradually sharpened, which made Lu Bancheng's face suddenly red, and at this time, Sedum turned around, stopped in front of him and said: "Don't fight, don't argue! ”
He stretched out his hand and said: "Lord Wei came to invite in for a cup of hot tea, although we temporarily borrow the precious land, but we can also be half a landlord, why do you want us to do our best to be a landlord?"
His face Wei Ziyu still gave it, so as Sedum and the others entered the living room, Lu Bancheng stood in place and his face was white and red, he was embarrassed, and he threw his sleeves and left.
In the living room, the guests and hosts sat down, and between the tea, Wei Ziyu confessed: "Wei is worried about His Majesty today, and he is in a hurry, and there are many offends in his words. ”
Sedum smiled and said: "Lord Wei is polite, I see that your Tang Dynasty is full of weather, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the smiles on the faces of the people are bright, I want to come to the country and the people, Your Majesty is assisted by an important minister like you, there should be nothing to worry about! Lord Wei should not work too much." ”
Wei Ziyu waved his hand and said: "That's just the appearance, Datang is now in turmoil, fortunately, there is harmony between the good neighbors of Dajin, the better the exchanges between our two countries, it is naturally a good thing for the people of the two countries, as for the internal affairs of our court, we naturally need to worry more about our courtiers, Your Majesty is not in good health, and it is not good for him to be too disturbed." ”
This is obviously the internal affairs of the Southern Tang Kingdom, although there are many hidden secrets, but Sedum is not easy to inquire, so he can only say some words on the scene, Wei Ziyu sat for a while and drank a cup of tea and left.
After he left, Sedum called Guan Shanhai and Sima Yan, looked at them and said, "Just now Wei Ziyu said that the Southern Tang Dynasty is currently in turmoil, do you know the inside story?"
"Your Highness, the situation in the Southern Tang Dynasty is indeed very complicated, I heard that several princes have a lot of complaints about their Majesty, and they are quite dissatisfied, and I am afraid that the inside story is not so simple. Sima Yan said.
"Your Highness, I have secretly contacted the spies who stayed in Nan'an, and if I want to know anything, I will send it in these two days, in my opinion, this right attendant is probably not so simple. ”
Guan Shanhai actually has another identity, that is, he is licensed by Hong Zhao, the chief manager of all the news and intelligence in Dingnan Pass and Dingnan City, this guy looks fat but has a clear mind, so he still has a vision.
Sedum said: "Then I'll leave this matter to you, I want to know what happened to them? If Nantang is really so bad, I think my old man will be very happy to know." ”
The two of them took the order and left, Guan Shanhai has his own way, as for Sima Yan, Sedum doesn't know, but he knows that this person must be able by himself, and this person tries his best to blend into the mission, just want to do something, he should give him a chance, right?
As for the details, he didn't have to worry about it, he still had to find God in the past two days, and asked himself in detail if he had found a way to cultivate?
But God seems to be resting again in his sea of knowledge, and he secretly shouted many times, but God didn't react, and he was helpless today.
Fortunately, the Mid-Autumn Festival is going to be celebrated in these two days, and there are some things that always need to be busy, and he is the chief envoy of the mission, although he is not in charge of things, but he always has to talk about some things, otherwise it is really difficult to arrange it.
Moreover, the Southern Tang Dynasty has a number of thoughtful gifts, and the Dajin side cannot understand the return gift, after all, when he set off from Dingnan Pass, he still brought a large car of gifts.
There are gifts for the Southern Tang Emperor, as well as gifts from several important ministers of the dynasty, especially several princes, plus the list opened by Lu Bancheng of Honglu Temple, there are many people who want to give gifts.
Today, I noticed that there was no Wei Ziyu's name in the gift list on Dajin's side, and I thought that this person did not attract the attention of Dajin, but he added it!
And in the past two days, Guan Shanhai's intelligence has been summarized, Wei Ziyu really has a good relationship with their Emperor Majesty, although this person is young and the control is only the right servant of the household department, but he is a key figure who can influence the political situation of the court.
And the news from Sima Yan's side also came back, he told Sedum that there are currently two very important generals in the Southern Tang Dynasty, as well as five princes, except for one prince who is old and ignores the government, the other four are very influential, and these five princes can even change the direction of the entire royal inheritance.
As for the two foreign generals, one of them is Shen Tugang, who they have all seen, although this person is stationed outside all the year round, he also has a huge impact on the current situation of the court!
These people have a very clear attitude, that is, they all hate Wei Ziyu!
