readx;
Suddenly, seeing the Emperor of the Apocalypse quietly arrived, after the Donglin courtiers were in a panic, they all stepped forward and knelt down, and the mountain shouted long live. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhu Youzhen immediately walked a few steps, knelt down in front of the ministers, and greeted the imperial brother. Gao Jie shrank at the end, bowing to the ground while secretly rejoicing: "The emperor's classmates are like a savior, I'm afraid that this half-moon discussion will not be able to continue!"
Emperor Apocalypse pulled his younger brother up, touched his head, and then smiled: "Everyone loves Qing in his life, there is no need to be polite. ”
The ministers got up from the ground one after another, all of them lowered their eyebrows and looked at each other, how could they still have such a high-minded posture.
Emperor Apocalypse smiled and said: "I came here today to visit the emperor's brother, but I didn't expect to meet all the courtiers to discuss tea and tea, and when I heard the highlights, I couldn't help but disturb your Yaxing, but I didn't!"
Ye Xianggao, as the first assistant, has his own advantages, so he quickly adjusted his mentality, and said: "We are just at the invitation of His Royal Highness King Xin, and we came to answer his questions and say some allusions, and it is definitely not a party." Now that the Holy One is coming, I will retire after this, so that the Holy Lord and His Royal Highness King Xin can recount their brotherhood. ”
Emperor Tianqi waved his hand and smiled: "Ye Aiqing doesn't have to be nervous! You have been smart since childhood, diligent and studious, and you can have all the famous people to give advice, I can't ask for it, how can I blame it? Sit down with peace of mind, say whatever you need to say, when I don't exist!"
Let's say it, the Emperor of the Apocalypse walked straight to the main seat and sat down on Zhu Youxiao's seat.
Donglin Qunchen looked at each other, and it was not easy to leave, and it was embarrassing to stay, and he was at a loss for a while.
Since ancient times, not only in the Ming Dynasty, but also in the court of any dynasty, there are many taboos, that is, the unspoken rules of officialdom, and private gatherings are one of them. Most of the people who became emperors lacked a sense of security and were quite suspicious, for fear that the ministers around them would get together in private and plot against them, and even the common people were not allowed to gather for meetings.
Although Ye Xianggao and others knew that Emperor Tianqi and His Royal Highness King Xin were brothers, they had grown up with hardship since childhood, and their feelings were deep, and this half-moon discussion was also at the invitation of King Xin, so they just came to the appointment, but the companion is like a tiger, who knows what His Majesty the Emperor will think, and everyone is worried, and they just want to leave early, how dare they really sit down and spit nonsense in front of Emperor Apocalypse. However, the emperor has already sent a message at this moment, who dares to turn around and run away? It is not to leave, it is not to stay, and I don't know what to do.
Zhu Youzhen was young, and he didn't understand the embarrassment of the ministers, so he clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, it's rare that the imperial brother is interested, so everyone will return to their seats and continue our half-moon talks!"
Ye Xianggao looked at the enthusiastic Zhu Youzhen, crying and laughing, and in desperation, he had to go back to his place, one by one, as if something unfortunate had happened to his family.
Gao Jie saw all this in his eyes, and secretly felt funny, but on the surface, he looked sincerely frightened, and sat down with Zhu Youzhen after a few cases that were re-established by the palace maids.
Wei Zhongxian stood straight behind the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and winked at Gao Jie while the ministers were silent.
Gao Jie understood and responded with a wink.
Emperor Tianqi sat for a long time, looked left and right, and saw that the ministers who were still exalting words and talking eloquently were like defeated roosters, drooping their heads and not speaking, and wondered: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's still early at the moment, I think your half-moon meeting should have just started, why didn't you suddenly speak?!"
Ye Xianggao lowered his head, his heart was full of uneasiness, how could he still talk about Yaxing, even the speech lines that had been prepared for several days were completely forgotten and thrown into Java.
Gao Jie smiled secretly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are such a big god sitting on it, how dare these people talk nonsense! I don't know if the Emperor of the Apocalypse is really confused or pretending to be confused!"
Zhu Youzhen also felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere at this moment, and got up and said: "All the celebrities and scholars are brilliant people, it is rare for me and the imperial brother to listen to your wise words together on such an occasion, so let's speak freely!"
After he finished speaking, no one made a sound, Zhu Youzhen was anxious, scratched his head, thought about it, pointed to Yang Lian and said: "Lord Yang Lian, you usually dare to speak out, so you can start again!"
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Zhu You inspecting Yang Lian, but then they lifted their hearts again. They know very well that Yang Lian is a master who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and he has never had a door on his mouth, if he says something that displeases the saint, wouldn't it bring disaster to everyone?!
Sure enough, Yang Lianben because of his humble official position, since participating in the half-moon discussion, he has not had the opportunity to speak freely, today I saw that everyone was a turtle with a shrunken head because of the presence of the saint, and His Royal Highness King Xin personally named his name, and immediately got up, first finished saluting the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and then said loudly: "Weichen thinks that the saint can deign to come today, and listening to our words is a holy move!"
Emperor Apocalypse can sit on the throne, this little official Yang Lian has made meritorious contributions, although he is quite displeased that he sometimes fires cannons indiscriminately regardless of the occasion, but he still has a grateful heart in his heart, and said with a smile: "Yang Aiqing means that I should have come a long time ago?"
Yang Lian raised his head and said: "That's not it, what the minister means is that the saint is here, which means that he has realized the importance of learning, and we are all happy." If you start to abandon wooden work at this time and study hard, you will definitely be able to learn from the past and the present and become a generation of Ming monarchs!"
Ye Xianggao listened, his brain ached, and he secretly scolded this Yang Lian is really wonderful, he dares to speak to the saint like this, isn't this harming us?
Gao Jie was secretly happy when he heard it, Yang Lian was worthy of being an upright old man with a intestine to the end, and he wanted to persuade the Emperor of the Apocalypse to stop making carpenter work and study hard, but his nature was not good at tactfulness, and he was outspoken and fast-talking.
He secretly looked sideways at the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and sure enough, he saw the young Zhu Youxiao with a smile on his face, looking down at the teacup in his hand, and was silent. But from his slightly trembling hands, it was obvious that the young emperor was a little moved.
For this Yang Lian, Gao Jie somehow, there is always an unknown emotion, both respect and pity, at this moment, seeing that this cannon barrel opened his mouth and caused trouble, I am afraid that the emperor's thunderous anger will soon be ushered in, and he hurriedly got up and smiled: "Lord Yang's words are the same as those of Lord Sun, which is both right and wrong!"
Emperor Apocalypse was angry and was gritting his teeth to endure it, but when he heard Gao Jie pop out to speak, he immediately calmed down his anger slightly, and said with a light smile: "Gao Aiqing, what do you say?"
Gao Jie arched his hand to the Emperor of the Apocalypse and said: "I don't dare to be high-minded, but I have heard many people say that everything is inferior, only if you are high in reading, but this argument is not daring to agree." ”
"Oh?!" Emperor Apocalypse was interested, of course he knew that Gao Jie was illiterate like him, and his feelings of pity were overflowing, and then asked, "Then what is Gao Aiqing's different opinion?"
Gao Jie looked at Yang Lian, saw that the old guy still didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he looked at him with his neck, smiled bitterly secretly, and said loudly: "Lord Yang, I don't know if the kid understands it right, everything is inferior, only the meaning of reading is high, that is, if you want to succeed, you must study hard, right?"
Yang Lian nodded and said, "Naturally!"
Gao Jie smiled and continued: "So, that is to say, if you don't go to the private school to study, then you will definitely not succeed, right?"
Yang Lian was stunned for a moment, didn't have time to think about it, and immediately replied: "That's right!"
Gao Jie saw that this stunned goose had fallen into his trap, and secretly laughed, so he continued: "Lord Yang's literary brilliance, there is no need to say more, it is also indispensable to understand the ancient and modern, but I don't know if the adult knows, since ancient times, is there a person who has never read a book but is famous all over the world and has achieved fame?"
Yang Lian opened his mouth, and was about to list such as Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, Genghis Khan, Hu Dahai, the founding general of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Kui, a good man in Shuibo Liangshan, when he suddenly came to his senses and said the names of these people.
Gao Jie couldn't hold back a smile and said: "Lord Yang didn't sleep well at the latest, I can't remember it for a while, I'm from the countryside, but I've heard a few celebrities, what Lu Ban, Lu Bu, Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, it seems that they haven't read private school, but then they can be regarded as successful people, famous all over the world!"
Yang Lian glared at Gao Jie stubbornly, but he didn't say a word.
Gao Jie said with a smile: "Including the Emperor Gaozu of my dynasty, although he has never read a book, he has a good understanding of everything and has driven away the Mongols and created a prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty.
As soon as Gao Jie's words fell, Emperor Apocalypse clapped his palms excitedly, Gao Jie's words not only made him angry, but also gave him great confidence and encouragement for some reason, in a trance, in the near future, he seemed to see that he would also become the holy son of Emperor Gaozu!
Gao Jie was secretly ashamed in his heart, in fact, he came from later generations, he naturally knew the importance of reading, at this moment, these words were not so much refuting Yang Lian, but rather saving him, hoping that the Emperor of the Apocalypse would soothe his mood and let go of this upright cannon barrel because of his own words.
Hearing the applause of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Gao Jie turned around and thanked him, and then faced Yang Lian again and said, "Lord Yang's words are not all unreasonable. In this world, everyone has their place and things to do. The peasants plough the fields, the merchants sell goods, the officials manage the people, and the saints govern the officials! Therefore, the Holy Ming lies in his ability to recognize people and make good use of them, and his ability to recruit all the scholars and courtiers present here to work for my Ming Dynasty, not how much he reads. ”
After Gao Jie finished speaking, he looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him, with different expressions and reactions.
Ye Xianggao was shocked and surprised, Emperor Tianqi and Wei Zhongxian were delighted and excited, and Zhu Youzhen was very strange, looking at Gao Jie's gaze, there seemed to be a trace of dissatisfaction and disappointment.
