Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Death of the Taijun and the Appreciation of Plum Blossoms in the Snow
Although the heavy snow has stopped for several days, the rivers and mountains are still white, and it is even more precious that the plum blossoms are precious, lonely and arrogant, and they are unique.
Look at the plum blossoms in the garden, there are two leaves, there are single petals, there are green calyxes, there are jade stacks, or red, or white, or old, or tender, sparse shadows and horizontal oblique, dark fragrance floating.
The ice and snow always look so bleak and desolate, but the plum blossoms block the ravages of the plastic wind, graft the fragrance of the clear fragrance on the branches of winter, and dye the cold winter into a cold fragrance and seclusion.
It is no wonder that over the years, it has attracted countless literati and ink writers, talented and beautiful women, and poetry appreciation. Although Lin Yi didn't have much ink in his heart, he couldn't help but be poetic, and he also wanted to learn from the literati to write a poem. At this time, the king Bao appeared at an inopportune time, but ruined the scene.
"What's the matter, why are you so flustered!" Lin Yi asked.
"Your Highness, I just got the news from Jiafu that Guangcheng Jun Guo Huai passed away this morning!" Wang Bao said in a low voice. The three girls saw that Wang had important information to report, so they naturally walked away with Jingde in their arms.
What Guangcheng-kun's death means, everyone knows it tacitly and knows. Lin Yi was still unfazed, and simply said the word "oh", but Wang Bao was very surprised.
"Everything that should come will come eventually!" Lin Yi paused and said.
This jealous and pungent woman for more than half a century finally passed away, it can be said that she has influenced the historical trend of the Great Jin Dynasty to a certain extent, and it is she who single-handedly created the **** of Empress Jia and messed up the world. The Great Jin Dynasty was won by the Jia family, it was Jia Chong who took the lead in killing Emperor Cao Wei, supported Sima Yanchan as the emperor, and lost it by the Jia family. Later extreme historians even believed that she single-handedly led to the demise of the Western Jin Dynasty. However, people are dying and their words are good, but she did a good deed in the last few years of her life, she became the prince's umbrella for a while, and the party did not dare to do too rude and excessive things to the prince.
"I thought she was about to die, she couldn't survive this cold winter, I didn't expect to survive until Chinese New Year's Eve, and survived the Spring Festival, and struggled on the sickbed for half a year, but no matter who was rich and powerful in life, in the end did not survive the erosion of this year, but unfortunately I can see spring in a few more months!" It seems that the imperial physician Ling Cheng looks like Lao Tzu's medical skills are the best in the world on weekdays, and the prescriptions he prescribed are nothing more than that, if it weren't for the few down quilts and down jackets we gave her, it would be hard to say whether she could survive such a cold winter until the New Year!" Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh again. In this world, no matter how powerful you are, you can't escape birth, old age, sickness and death!
"It's just...... Your Highness will have to pay close attention to the ** trend in the future!" Wang Bao couldn't help but remind when he saw that Lin Yi's face still did not change.
"You don't have to worry about this, they won't be so fast, the big move will at least pass the filial piety period, but some things may happen soon! How many of those handsome little students I asked you to find a few years ago were found?" Lin Yi changed the topic and asked rhetorically.
Wang Bao secretly glanced at the three girls again, for fear that they would hear it, and felt that the distance was still too close, and finally whispered in Lin Yi's ear: "According to His Highness's will, the old slave has secretly found more than ten handsome children in their teens, some of them are wandering beggars, some are children of poor families who have signed a deed of sale, some are sons of reliable families in the palace, and some are children of Jia Hou's party enemies, their identities can definitely rest assured!"
"The crown princess and the two ladies, but it is not difficult to do, as long as Your Majesty often passes over and does not forget them, but you must not let Jiang, Du and other adults know the way, otherwise with their stubborn temper that will not change until death, these handsome sons will not stay with His Royal Highness!" Wang Bao paused and whispered boldly.
Lin Yi finally understood what Wang Bao meant, no wonder he was so cautious, afraid that the three girls would hear it. It turned out that he misinterpreted Lin Yi's meaning. But this can't be blamed on him, since the Qin and Han dynasties, it is not a new thing for the upper-class nobles to be good male favorites, but it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, which is against human ethics, despised by the world, and cannot see the sun. He thought that Lin Yi was the same as those nobles today, although there were many beauties in the East Palace, he was gradually tired of it, and his hobbies had also shifted to male favorites.
However, Wang Bao's approach, Lin Yi is very satisfied, so loyal and reliable, and thoughtful, the first thing that comes to mind is the honor and disgrace of the master, but it is much stronger than those foolish and loyal old Confucians, no wonder since ancient times, there are countless eunuchs in later generations, there are so many eunuchs who are favored, and those ministers no matter how many civil and martial arts they have, their talents are amazing, Loyalty, but in the end it is not a personal eunuch by the emperor's side who is more favored, more recognized and believed, but not only because the water is close to the building or the emperor's control of the minister's strategy, from the most primitive perspective of human nature, only those eunuchs can be anxious about what the emperor is anxious about, think about what the emperor thinks, and really only think about the emperor's private considerations.
Meritorious as Emperor Qin and Han Wu, violent as Emperor Xia and Emperor Xin, all monarchs and emperors can't escape this law, but smart emperors are relatively more able to clamp down on these people around them.
"Haha......"
Lin Yi laughed a few times and said: "Princess, but I misinterpreted the intention of this king, this king is already content with these three wives, but the man is not good for me." You first find a few masters for them, learn literature and martial arts, and strengthen their bodies, and after a while, this king will personally test them!"
In the Han Dynasty, "nicknamed children" was only a special habit of kings and nobles, but in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, this style gradually became popular among scholars and the public, and there were many singing words. Lin Yi's move, but Wang Bao couldn't understand what it meant.
"Is His Highness looking for a few personal guards who are all-round civil and military talents? Or is His Highness deliberately loud to show his integrity? Or is he afraid that a few ladies will hear it and deliberately want to cover it up? It's just that this good male pet is not a big deal, which noble relatives in Luoyang City are not rich? How can His Royal Highness not have a prince?" Wang Bao was at a loss for a while, so he could only echo it. The three girls heard His Highness's laughter, and they didn't know what they were happy about, so they also approached.
"Guangchengjun died, and it is indispensable to go to Jiafu to give generous gifts, hurry up and do it!" Lin Yi said to Wang Bao again.
"Ai Concubine, let's continue to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms! Such a beautiful day, how can we have less to drink and compose poetry! This flower is beautiful but not glamorous, beautiful but not demonic, all flowers are withering, this Du Ling Han blooms spontaneously, ten thousand trees are not glorious, this Du Zheng is the first to put spring, although the bone is thin and clear, and a kind of chic dust, from the extraordinary flowers can reach, so that people love and respect it" Lin Yi looked at the three women who approached the smile like a flower.
"Your Highness is really good today!" Wang Huifeng continued.
"Your Highness is worried about the country and the people, now that the weather is finally warmer and clearer, I think that the people of the world will no longer suffer from this freezing, I am a lot more relaxed, and I am happy. Chen Wu also followed, she knew Lin Yi very well what was going on in her heart.
"Bring the wine and pen and ink!" Jiang Jun said to the palace maids Fluttershy and Jade who were with him. These two women are very popular with Jiang Jun, especially the palace maid named Xiaoyu, who is diligent and quick-witted, and has a sweet mouth, and wants to be ahead of everything and is very thoughtful.
"With this good flower, you can't live without this good sentence. It is more worthy of the company of beautiful women, Fangchen to the scene, confidants to talk to each other, this king can't help but be poetic, then let's have a song first!" I saw Lin Yi take a few steps, took a glass of wine handed by Jiang Jun, and after a slight pause, he said:
"Qiongzi is in Yaotai, who planted it in Luoyang.
The snow is full of Coats, and the beauty under the moon comes.
The cold shadow is dashing and bamboo, and the spring covers the desert moss.
He Lang has no good songs, and the east wind has opened several times. ”
"Good poetry! Especially this sentence 'The snow is full of Gaoshi sleeping, and the beauty under the moon is coming' is really poetic, and the voice is excellent, and it is absolutely extraordinary. The women cheered.
"Humble Yong owes work, it's your time to love the concubine, and the last one who will be judged will be punished for serving the king for a month!" Lin Yi also said with a smile.
Wang Huifeng continued: The most famous poem of Yongmei in this dynasty is the song of Lu Kai of Dongwu "Folding plum is passed on at the post, sent to the Longtou people, there is nothing in the south of the Yangtze River, talk about giving a branch of incense." Although this poem created a precedent of "folding plum friends", the rhetoric is gorgeous, and the beautiful sentences are not as good as one of the tenths of His Royal Highness. I don't know if she deliberately slapped the horse insincerely, or from the heart, but saw her follow again: "The concubine also throws bricks and leads the jade, first two sisters and a song!" Then lightly opened the red lips and said:
"Yaxiu wins the spring bloom, and the flowers dominate.
The shadow is in the middle of the moon, and the fragrance is full of poetry.
Light cage suspicious picture, embellished than tailoring.
Who can solve the problem of deep affection? Acacia is not exhaustive. ”
"Good poetry!" the crowd cheered again. This Wang Huifeng is really full of wisdom and intelligence, and he will come as soon as he opens his mouth.
"Your Royal Highness's good sentence, you should be a Hanyuan immortal! The concubine is not talented, but also bold and a poem. Chen Wu continued, although she has not studied poetry systematically, but after all, she is a goblin who has lived for more than 500 years, and she has never eaten pork and has never seen a pig go, I saw that after she pondered for a moment, she also lightly opened her lips and said:
"The Broken Soul Moon knows that spring sorrow is in one branch.
People only laugh when they talk, and they are suspicious of lovesickness.
Flowers burn the lights at night, and when the makeup is in the mirror.
The old dream follows the flowing water, and the mountain window is accompanied by a poem. ”
"Your Highness's poetry is superb, I think that the twenty-four friends of the Golden Valley are famous in the world, most of them are indiscriminate and full of numbers, and their fame is greater than the truth, even if Zuo Si, Pan Yue, Lu Yun and other real scholars, the talent of a single round of poetry may not be higher than that of His Highness!" Then he said with a difficult face, "The concubine has been poor since she was a child, almost starved to death on the street, she has never read poetry, but she is fortunate to be loved by His Royal Highness, and she has been influenced by His Royal Highness's poetry and writing, so she knows a little poetry and good sentences, but today she is not far behind, but she made His Highness and the sisters laugh!"
"The snow returns to spring, and the garden is full of ice.
Lonely and ownerless, there are still flowers and branches.
has no intention of fighting for spring, and a group of people are jealous.
Scattered mud and dust, only fragrant as before. ”
"Good poetry!" the women cheered again. Everyone drank to each other, drank a few more glasses, and the women spoke: "Your Highness, hurry up and explain, which of the sisters is going to be punished?"
"Although the poems sung by Jiang Meiren are barely rhyming, they are valuable in their far-reaching artistic conception; the poems sung by Chen Meiren have rhymes, but they do not have much artistic conception; Wang Meiren's poems have good rhyme and artistic conception, but this sentence 'Who can solve the deep affection? "It seems that there is a grudge, it seems that this king's kung fu is still not at home, and he has to destroy the flowers with his hands, so I will punish you for serving this king this month!" Lin Yi followed and pounced on Wang Huifeng like an eagle catching a chicken.
"Your Royal Highness, the concubines don't dare anymore, this is just when the concubines have not been out of the cabinet, and they are clumsy in the boudoir, and today they are at your fingertips!" Wang Huifeng explained as he ran.
"Hehe, I have to catch you!" Lin Yi said with a confused look.
"Your Highness, don't, I'm so ashamed here!" Wang Huifeng said shamefully. When those palace maids and eunuchs saw Lin Yi, they really didn't just flirt and scold, they had already raised their knives and jumped horses, and they naturally walked away with real ammunition, leaving only Lin Yi and the third daughter. But I saw that the palace maid named Xiaoyu always stopped her eyes on the place where the prince and the three ladies were playing, and her ears were even more erect, for fear of missing a word from them.
"Sisters, help!" Wang Huifeng shouted again, but the two girls stood on Lin Yi's side at the critical moment.
"Today we will be covered by the sky, the bed on the ground, and slept together!" Jiang Jun laughed and joined Chen Wu in the play.
"Ha Lu Ha ......"
In the snow of Merlin, the spring color is boundless, and bursts of laughter are coming!
