The First Gongsheng of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 359
Zhu Youtang's voice fell.

Zhang Mao couldn't help looking at Li Dongyang and Ma Wensheng, with a feeling of "Do you understand? Why didn't I understand".

After Zhu Youtang pushed the few people back, outside Qianqing Palace, Zhang Mao couldn't help asking Xiao Jing who was in charge of sending them off: "Eunuch Xiao, Your Majesty is willing to use Tang Yin's life in exchange for Daming's use of troops against North Korea." ? Who is he provoking?"

Li Dongyang couldn't help but look sideways at Zhang Mao.

His eyes seem to be asking, do you sympathize with Tang Yin?
Xiao Jing smiled wryly and said: "This is His Majesty's intention, our family dare not speak rashly."

Li Dongyang said: "Is it His Majesty's intention, or Lai Guogong's intention?"

"Hehe." Xiao Jing smiled wryly, as if he couldn't answer this question.

Zhang Mao asked with a perplexed face, "Didn't Zhang Bingkuan value Tang Bohu the most? He's from the same family again, so there's nothing wrong with him."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Dongyang and Ma Wensheng with questioning eyes, meaning that you are here to explain?

Li Dongyang and Ma Wensheng would not discuss such issues.

Xiao Jingdao: "For the sake of the family and the community, it is not the duty of a courtier to devote oneself to death. It is a pity that our family does not have the opportunity to go. If there is, our family is willing to replace Mr. Tang... Besides him He is an envoy of Ming Dynasty, no matter how rude North Korea is, he would not dare to do anything to an envoy of Ming Dynasty."

Zhang Mao smiled wryly and said, "I've gone to instigate a rebellion, why don't I dare to do anything about it? But the soldiers who went with Daming, I'm afraid they won't come back."

"This……"

Xiao Jing was speechless.

He felt that this plan was a bit too nonsense. It would be fine to sacrifice Tang Yin alone. The key point was that Tang Yin would take the soldiers of Daming to go... Could it be that what Zhang Zhou meant was to let Tang Yin go alone and take the [-] elite soldiers of Daming? all down?If that's the case...it's no different from pushing Tang Yin to die.

……

……

Li Dongyang took a rest that day, and when he returned home during the day, he learned that his daughter did not attend class.

So he called Li Yu over.

"...The lady has not been here twice. It may be that I made a bad request last time. It is my daughter's fault to make things difficult for the lady." Li Yu bowed his head obediently in front of his father.

Li Dongyang said: "What is the request?"

Li Zhaoxian who followed along with him hurriedly said, "Father, don't blame the younger sister, it's my son..."

"Did I ask you for my father?" Li Dongyang was in a bad mood.

It seems that Zhang Zhou is not in the court, and the pressure on the cabinet is much less, but Zhang Zhou's plate in Liaodong is getting bigger and bigger, and now he has to discuss with the emperor to overthrow the North Korean leader, and the cabinet ministers of Ming Dynasty are actually planning Did you know before it was about to execute?
It's strange that Li Dongyang is in a good mood.

Li Yu said: "My son told Mrs. Nv to ask her to write poems again."

"Nonsense." Li Dongyang wanted to reprimand something.

But he cherishes his family very much, especially after Li Zhaoxian came back after taking his life, he feels that the family is inseparable.

Intrigues with others in court, only at home can he feel serious like a man.

"If the person doesn't come, then change it and find someone to come back." Li Dongyang didn't like Zhang Zhou at first, but now Lin Yi was also prejudiced because he was from Zhang Zhou's residence.

Li Yu said: "It's my fault, I'm going to make amends to my husband."

Li Dongyang couldn't help frowning.

He didn't expect that his daughter would respect Lin Yi so much, and then he looked at the son next to him... What kind of eyes are these?You are so enthusiastic about a married woman?Are you brothers and sisters crazy?

Li Zhaoxian hastily argued: "Father, why don't you find someone to send a letter to make an apology and explain the situation. Let Zhang Ruren teach my sister later."

Li Dongyang said: "It's not impossible, but you stay away, it has nothing to do with you."

"Ok?"

Li Zhaoxian is still baffled, what does this have to do with me?

It's just that my younger sister is chasing stars, and I'm chasing them too. As for the others... Father, are you too narrow-minded?
"Send someone to go." Li Dongyang didn't bother to care about it anymore. Now that his daughter has no engagement, she is light-weight, but the problem is...

He was once married to the Kong family, had a marriage contract, and was forcibly broken off the marriage contract. Even if Li was on the side of the Li family, outsiders would not dare to approach him casually, which made Li Dongyang very anxious.

……

……

Lin Yi really didn't dare to run to Li's house recently.

If I go again, I have to write poems. She doesn't know how to write any poems. Isn't it a shame to go?
Besides, even if Miss Lin, as a concubine, has a stingy and money-loving side, she has everything after entering Zhang's mansion, and she doesn't need to go to lectures to earn those three melons and two dates, and this is a good thing for a married man. Women have a bad reputation, so... teachers should skip class first.

But the Li family was still sent a letter of apology, and Jiang Pingyu delivered it to her.

"lady……"

After Lin Yi saw Jiang Pingyu, she was still a little nervous.

Although Jiang Pingyu usually cares and loves her very much, but she always feels that this is a secret battle of the Zhang family, just like a palace fight, if she is not vigilant, she will die very quickly.

It is also related to her mother's past experience. No matter how good Lin Han's wife Ruan Shi is to their mother and daughter, it is only for face, and she still looks down on them from the inside, and even uses various ethical methods to suppress them.

Jiang Pingyu actually had low self-esteem in front of Lin Yi, because Jiang Pingyu felt that a wealthy family, why should she be a concubine, and what qualifications did she have to be able to restrain such a powerful woman?
"It was Li's mansion who sent someone, wrote a letter, and specifically told that it was for you, sister Lin. If you don't want to go, it's okay. Just send someone over and say something."

Jiang Pingyu still understood Lin Yi.

Zhang Zhou was not in Beijing, so if he went out to teach others according to the teaching job he had accepted before marriage, he would inevitably be misunderstood.

Lin Yi nodded slightly and said: "I... I still won't go, I can't write any poems... Miss Li is gentle and generous, and her knowledge is not inferior to mine. I have nothing to teach."

Jiang Pingyu said: "Poems? There are some poems and sentences in the master's study, and he has also compiled a booklet. If you need it, it's okay to go and have a look."

"what?"

Lin Yi was taken aback.

For a concubine like her, Zhang Zhou's study was an absolute forbidden place. It was where Zhang Zhou worked and received some Confucian officials. How could she, a woman, have the right to set foot there?
Jiang Pingyu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It's okay, the master said that there is no place in the house that we can't go to, except not letting the children go in and make trouble. After you get along with the master for a long time, you will know that he agrees with his heart, not Hypocrisy. This is fine, there is no barrier between the family, so go and have a look at it, or I will bring it for you."

"No...don't...I..."

Lin Yi didn't know what to say in front of such a well-educated woman.

Jiang Pingyu said: "Don't mess it up, we don't know how to tidy it up, in fact, it's also a mess inside, maybe the master is used to flipping through books casually."

……

……

Lin Yi finally entered that mysterious place.

In fact, she was also very curious about what books Zhang Zhou usually read, how he became the number one scholar of the Ming Dynasty, he was also the Duke of Lai, he was also a general with a great military strategy, and he was also a proficient in poetry and poetry.

After she entered Zhang Zhou's study in the new house, she found that it was ordinary inside, not even a decent collection of classics and history books, but all the books on the table were martial arts stories, drama books, equations, etc. Collection, smelting and manufacturing blueprints and the like...

Variety.

Many of them were semi-finished drafts, and if they were important, they were all picked up by Zhang Zhou.

Because Lin Yi didn't dare to move around, she searched carefully for a long time before finding the legendary "Book of Poems".

Turning to the first page, the word "for men" is written on it.

Lin Yi was taken aback.

What does it mean?
On the second page, there is a poem, "The Immortal of Linjiang Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water". After Lin Yi finished reading it, she was dumbfounded.

The third page, "Yihai Miscellaneous Poems".

Lin Yi counted her fingers first, now is the year of Gengshen, and the last year of Yihai was 45 years ago... How did my man write "Miscellaneous Poems of Yihai"?Could it be that the so-called Yihai refers to the month of Yihai?Or Yihai Day?

The entire "Yi Hai Miscellaneous Poems" itself has more than 300 poems, and it is impossible for Zhang Zhou to remember all of them, after all, some of them are not high in attainments.

But only one song can make Lin Yi look straight.

Especially when she saw "Luohong is not a ruthless thing, it turns into spring mud to protect flowers", Lin Yi's face turned red instantly.

Looking further down, there is also a sentence in the miscellaneous poems, "I urge the Lord of Heaven to cheer up and send down talents without sticking to one pattern", which also made her read for a long time.

Then there are some very complicated words and sentences, and there are even "Bamboo and Stone" in "Thousands of blows are still strong, let you let the east, west, north, south wind".

……

Lin Yi's original impression of Zhang Zhou was still cynical, mysterious, and wicked, which caused ripples in her heart, but when she saw so many poems, that impression became much taller in an instant.

When she scrolled down gradually, the impression was even deeper, because what Zhang Zhou could record was to leave it for some poetry anthology to be published in the future, and he could pretend to be a good one, but he didn't need to use this kind of thing to pretend at present. , so don't use it.

"Sister, did you find it?"

Jiang Pingyu saw that Lin Yi hadn't come out after entering the study, so she couldn't help coming over to ask what happened.

Lin Yi seemed to have done something wrong, and hurriedly put away the collection of poems, only to realize in an instant, didn't Jiang Pingyu ask her to read it?
"It's...well."

Now Lin Yi's heart was full of waves, and she couldn't speak easily.

Jiang Pingyu said: "Isn't there any suitable one? Then use whatever you want, anyway, the master doesn't care about it, his poems are also your poems."

"No...it can't be like this." Lin Yi hurriedly said.

"I don't understand these things, as long as my sister is happy." Jiang Pingyu also realized that she might have said something wrong, so how could she just let Lin Yi plagiarize her husband's work?
What has it become?

After Jiang Pingyu left, Lin Yi continued to scroll down until the end. When there were two pages left, a word "for women" suddenly appeared.

Lin Yi stared at him with wide eyes.

The small characters "dedicated to my concubine Lin" are also annotated below.

Lin Yi blushed instantly.

Is this a poem written for myself?

I read it again, but I saw that the content was very feminine. It can be said that it was almost written from a female perspective. Lishan language is half past midnight, tears and rain and rain and bells will never complain. How can you be so lucky as Jin Yilang, who will make a wish that day."

After Lin Yi read it, she was first attracted by the beauty of the words.

Then she realized a problem.

what does this mean?It sounds like you are lamenting that people's hearts are changeable, and you are still lamenting that I want to leave you?Or do you think from my tone that you are going to be Bo Xing Jin Yilang?

Originally, Lin Yi was happy because Zhang Zhou wrote poems for her, but then she felt that the poems were poorly written, which somewhat failed her "a deep feeling".

When she came out to see Jiang Pingyu again, she said to Jiang Pingyu: "Madam, send someone to tell the people in the Li family that I won't go. I don't want the subsequent Shuxiu, and I will return the previous one too." To them. I'm a married woman, and I can't go out in public anymore."

"Why?" Jiang Pingyu was surprised.

You can still go out to see the world, and no one stops you, and you even make friends with the daughter of Ge's hometown, so you don't want to go?

Lin Yi seemed to have a grudge in her heart, she shook her head and said, "I want to learn more about husband and son, not just teaching others but not myself."

"Really? Then... then it's up to you."

Jiang Pingyu smiled wryly.

After Lin Yi left, Jiang Pingyu went into the study, but seeing that Lin Yi left in a hurry and left the letter written to her by Li Yu on the table, Jiang Pingyu must have read the content on it.

After seeing the sincere request to admit her mistakes, Jiang Pingyu also saw the poem that seemed to be written by Zhang Zhou to Lin Yi, and then she seemed to have an idea, and wrote the poem herself without signing or signing it. Just like that, someone sent it back to the Li family.

Jiang Pingyu really likes to sell the favor of her own sister.

People like your poems, since they are written by your husband, why not let you go out and be a talented woman?
……

……

Dangxin was sent back to Li's house.

After Li Yu opened it, he found that it was not a letter in the traditional sense, because there was only a poem in it.

"Miss, Abao who came back said, Miss Lin is wrong, it is Lai Guogong and Ruren who will not come again in the future, and said that he would return Shuxiu, but he still sent such a letter, probably to make it clear to Miss .”

After reading it, Li Yu was also stunned.

The correspondence between the sisters is probably so unusual that it only uses a poem, which can be understood in any way.

If from Lin Yi's point of view, this was written by Lin Yi, then this is lamenting the loveless man.

But if you look at it from the perspective of a best friend, it can also be said that she Li Yu violated the relationship between teacher and student and friend at first... Of course, this kind of understanding is still somewhat biased, after all, the back of the poem does mention the loveless man.

"The lady has an unknown past."

This is Li Yu's most direct comprehension after reading the poem, "But it seems that I have failed her too. Is it the people around me who are the easiest to fail the trust of others? Haven't I also become a person who hates in my heart? Then I ...how should I apologize?"

Lin Yi's reaction made Li Yu feel that this was a breakup.

Before breaking off the relationship, according to the previous agreement, the poems were delivered.

What a sad loss... not only Lin Yi was depressed because of this poem, even Li Yu was also depressed after reading it.

This is not what Zhang Zhou, who wrote poetry, could think of.

Zhang Zhou's purpose is to leave a poem for Lin Yi, let her go out to pretend to be aggressive, and maintain her reputation as a talented woman. After all, it is rare for a love like Nalan Rongruo who likes to write poems from a female perspective. The poems of love and love are indeed not suitable for him, a gentleman who has already achieved fame on the battlefield, to publish.

So are these poems really going to stay, waiting for history to discover?
Because of Zhang Zhouzai and the existence of the butterfly effect, there will be no Qing Dynasty in the future, and there will be no Nalan Rongruo, and even Tang Yin will never write "Song of Peach Blossom Temple". It can be said that what he wrote Every poem written by him will no longer exist in history, and there will be more famous poets produced because of his appearance... Of course, that is all for later.

"Little sister, I heard that Miss Lin wrote you a letter? Do you have any poems?"

Li Zhaoxian heard that the Zhang family had sent someone to reply to the letter, so he had to work hard to invite his sister out of the inner courtyard.

Li Yu said with a disappointed face: "No, the lady said that she will not come again in the future. She...has no poems for me either."

Because Li Yu felt that he had failed Lin Yi, naturally he would not show Lin Yi's words to others.

It seems that Li Yu also understood.

Lin Yi is married as a woman, so she no longer needs to use poetry to justify her name. What others pursue is a peaceful married life, but she is like a fan girl. Calling to embarrass Lin Yi with the way of expressing herself that she pursues.

"That...is very regrettable." Li Zhaoxian said, "Little sister, don't take it to heart, father will invite you a new female husband, and then..."

"I don't need anyone except Mrs. Lin's daughter. Brother, you can go. If you go out to discuss knowledge with others in the future, don't come to me!"

Lin Yi was also angry.

When she felt that it was her fault, she also felt that it was her elder brother who led her astray.

Li Zhaoxian is too spontaneous, because Li Dongyang spoiled the eldest son, and Li Yu also has the independence that women in this era do not have. When she has her own ideas, she will think about making up for the relationship with Lin Yi. Be anxious about what others are anxious about, and think about what others want.

More because.

This poem made him respect Lin Yi even more.

……

……

In the multi-walled city.

Tang Yin finished his dinner...two dishes and one soup...Tang Yin can't do anything else, he knows how to enjoy life when living conditions permit.

The soup is fish soup, someone caught it from the river in the back mountain, and it was specially made to honor him.

There was no enemy outside the city, but he was not in a hurry to send troops to attack everywhere, but North Korea sent troops to plunder food to ensure the basic survival of the city.

"Bohu, why don't we go?"

Xu Jing came to see Tang Yin after dark.

Tang Yin asked leisurely: "Are we throwing this fortified mountain city to the Koreans, or to the Jurchens of the Huifa Department? We didn't have any worries when the Jurchens were besieging the city. What are we still worried about now?"

Xu Jing pondered for a while, and it seemed to make sense.

"But we don't have much military exploits. Let's fight a few more villages... and learn from Uncle Xinjian." Xu Jing suggested again.

"No need." Tang Yin sighed, "It is my wish to return to Daming safely."
