little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 155
When entering the Wenhua Palace for the first time, the first thing you see is a golden plaque hanging high on it. The four big characters on it are eye-catching and dazzling: hold upright and dignified. Forever, the joy of calligraphy and ink is endless.

The four walls are all made of red sandalwood, with various collections of classics and histories, and hundreds of schools of thought, all on display. There is a huge book case under the east window, which is black and shiny like iron. On a sunny day, the pen washed with water is like a sword in the sea, and the inkstone in the inkstone of the Venus on the black ground is like oil.

The new lecturer Dong Qichang looked at the young Prince Rui who stepped here with complicated eyes, his expression excited and thoughtful.

He was a Jinshi in the 17th year of Wanli, and later entered the Imperial Academy as an editor. Compared with his knowledge, he is well-known in calligraphy and painting. He has become a famous person in the world, but his official career has not been smooth .

You don't know if you are not an official, but you will know when you are an official. In the Ming Dynasty, where capable people are born in large numbers, it is about power and power.Looking at a pool of crystal-clear water is actually a complete thunder pool. If anyone dares to take a step beyond the depth, it will be a catastrophe.

Tang Xianzu was brilliant and famous all over the world, so famous that even Zhang Juzheng, Shen Shixing, a generation of famous ministers, paid more attention to him and deliberately made friends with him.The first end of the refusal to break the brows and bow the waist of the powerful and powerful is that they have repeatedly failed. Everyone knows that it is the result of Zhang Juzheng's several times. Shen Shixing, a good old man, stood by and did not offer any help.

From that time on, Dong Qichang put away his raised tail completely. Smart people don't do stupid things. There are cars in front and roads in the back. With Tang Xianzu as an example, let him know that the Forbidden City is an area of ​​three acres. Divide land, talent does not necessarily make you happy, being able to be a talent is the most important thing, before you find a strong backer, you can only wait for the opportunity honestly.

When he learned that the student was Zhu Changluo, Dong Qichang was very excited because he knew that the opportunity had come.

Living in the Ciqing Palace, talking about the Wenhua Palace, and developing in that direction in the next step, not only Dong Qichang knew it in his heart, but also everyone with a heart in the Forbidden City knew it.

When he learned that the speaker was Dong Qichang, Zhu Changluo was very surprised.

Known as the greatest calligrapher and painter of the Ming Dynasty, it is said that his character was extremely bad. It was Master Dong with a pale face in front of him.

Those who are talented must be capable, and those who are capable must be virtuous. Although I don't understand why this Wanli chose him as a lecturer, regardless of his character, the level of knowledge of Master Dong in front of him is taken for granted. There is no doubt about it.

The nearest place to Wenhua Hall is Wenyuan Pavilion, which is also the place where the current Chief Assistant Shen always works.

Today, Shen Ge was very troubled, so troubled that he didn't think about eating and drinking, and couldn't sit or sleep.

Ever since the emperor summoned himself and Shen Li into the palace for an interview on the fifth day of the lunar new year, and confessed the news that he was going to be a crown prince face-to-face, Shen Yiyuan was overjoyed.

However, after he asked himself the question of where the Sacred Heart belonged to, Emperor Wanli did not answer for a long time, and then said something meaningful: "I have three sons under my knees, Chang Luo, Chang Xun, and Chang Hao have all been named kings, and the crown prince is the crown prince." , It is about the foundation of the country and the community of the world. As the chief assistant of the main government cabinet, you should not stay out of it, and you can quickly draw up an opinion."

Shen Yiguan finally understands what it means to look up high and what it means to drill strong.

Isn't it up to you, Your Majesty, who to be the crown prince?When will it be our cabinet's turn to worry about this?If this is the case, when the two chief assistants who went ahead submitted the papers and asked for the national foundation, and when the more than 100 officials who died or were released submitted the papers and asked for the national foundation, where were you, the emperor?

Looking at the Wanli Emperor who left behind these words, Shen's ecstatic heart seemed to be soaked in ice water, and instantly froze into ice bumps. He was depressed and wanted to cry without tears.

Shen Li, who had been silent by the side, suddenly laughed.

Shen Yiguan glared at him angrily: "Could it be that Mr. Shen has lost his mind, and he doesn't know why he is laughing?"

Shen Li was unambiguous, and immediately counterattacked: "I am really happy for Shen Yuanweng. The emperor favors you so much. No matter which prince can ascend to the throne in the future, he will be grateful to you. I can already foresee that Shen Yuanweng will be in the future. The official career must be to hang high sails to help the sea, and once you go to the Pengcheng thousands of miles away." After speaking, he laughed three times and left with a bow.

Shen Yiguan was so angry that his eyes turned black, and there was blood in his throat ready to move. He wished he could pull Shen Li over immediately and spray him all over his head and face.

Shen Yiguan, who has been sly all his life, how could he not know that what the emperor set up is a big hole?How could he not know how life-and-death the struggle for the country between Zhu Changluo, the eldest son of the emperor, and Zhu Changxun, the third son of the emperor, was?
Looking at the emperor's recent actions, there is no doubt that he wants to establish Prince Rui as the crown prince. According to the Ming Dynasty's ancestral system, the emperor does not establish the eldest son, and the elder does not establish the youngest.But here comes the problem, among the three kings, if Ruorui is really established as the prince, there is no need to thank anyone, because it should be so, it is justified.As for Rui Wang Zhu Changhao, he can be ignored, because he is the one to accompany the sacrifice, but what about Fu Wang?
Having been in the court for many years, how could Shen Yiguan not know how powerful Concubine Zheng Gui and Gu Xiancheng are?Right now, the power of the Zheng clan is no longer comparable to that of Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue. The emperor must also know that now that time has changed, it will not be so easy to establish a country at this time!So what the emperor meant was to ask the cabinet ministers to recommend Prince Rui Zhu Changluo, and then he could go along with the flow, flick a pen, and readily bow down, but in an instant, he would become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the trusted ministers of the Zheng family!

There is only one outcome in consideration of the three: no matter who wins, there is only one loser, and that is himself.

Shen Yitong, who was in a cold sweat, was full of sadness, and suddenly found that his chief assistant was just a pawn!
He suddenly felt that the emperor used him as the first assistant just to prepare for today?

There are some things in the world that are so sad, no matter how clearly you see it, when the knife falls on your neck, how to go or how to go.If he dares not to do what the emperor wants, he believes that his chief assistant will come to an end immediately...

Are you dismissed from office?Or Tingzhang?Or exile?

Old Shen Ge shook his head violently, is it easy to climb up step by step?

Master Shen Yiguan is definitely not someone who is willing to do business at a loss, after pondering over and over again, he decided to come to Prince Rui Zhu Changluo.

Opening your mouth is a three-point benefit, and you can't suffer this loss for nothing.

Zhu Changluo is reviewing books in the Wenhua Hall. On the table in front of him are the Analects of Confucius, The Doctrine of the Mean, Daxue, Zuo Zhuan, and Lu Shi Chunqiu. Reading is a slow job, and it can't be done overnight.Although Dong Qichang's character is not good, but when it comes to teaching, he does have a way. When he finds that Zhu Changluo has a weak foundation and a poor foundation, and he is already a talent who cannot be taught, he simply ignores the four books and five classics, and just tells stories every day. , from the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to Tang Zong and Song Zu, in short, all the themes are closely related to the four words of the emperor's mind, governance and security.

Today, Zhu Changluo is concentrating on copying the collection of famous sages. The collection of famous sages is compiled by Confucian scholars after the Southern Song Dynasty. Proverbs and proverbs are divided into four-character collections, five-character collections and six-character collections, among which the words are concise, insightful into the world, and enlightening people's minds.

There was the sound of footsteps in my ears, Zhu Changluo didn't raise his head, thinking that it was Xiao Fuzi who came in to serve tea, so he said casually, "Put it down, I'll use it later."

"Your Highness is wise and wise. If you study so hard, if the emperor finds out, it will surely be comforting to your heart."

Zhu Changluo stopped writing in shock, and when he raised his head, he saw a smiling face comparable to Huang Jin's signature in front of him.

"The teacher is here, please sit down."

Attitude is everything, just this sentence, teacher, Shen Yiguan's heart was instantly warmed up.

Taking the collection of famous sages casually, he couldn't help pondering for a while: "Dong Qichang's knowledge is good, but these days he teaches His Highness to read this?"

Zhu Changluo smiled lightly: "Master Dong asked me to read the university first, and then read the Analects of Confucius. After finishing these two books, I will read Mencius after I have established the foundation, and then read Mencius to see its progress. Finally, I will read the Doctrine of the Mean, seeking its subtlety: As for this collection of famous sages , in which Zonghe ancient sages made subtle remarks, contained the most truth, and came straight to the heart. I was very inspired after reading it."

Beneath Zhu Changluo's brilliant and gentle smile, Shen Yiyuan felt that the thoughts in his heart were like ashes that couldn't see the sun, so he was inexplicably guilty.

"Teacher, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, is burdened with official documents every day, and his body is exhausted. Why did you sneak here today?"

Looking at the other party's crystal clear eyes, Shen Yiguan was quite hesitant, looking up and seeing no one around, it was indeed the best time to speak.

Suddenly, he had an idea, picked up the collection of famous sages, flipped through a few pages, pointed to a sentence on the top and asked: "The old minister dares to ask Your Highness, what do you mean by these few sentences?"

Zhu Changluo looked intently, and saw that the old bamboo's withered vine-like hand was pointing at a line of writing...

Give benefits without thinking, and never forget the favor?
Listening to the sound of speaking, listening to the sound of gongs and drums, Zhu Changluo's clear eyes swept across the line of words, turned around and then fell meaningfully on Shen Yiguan's face.

Shen Yiguan's face was slightly flushed, and his breathing was a little short, but the stubbornness in his eyes was clearly evident.

Zhu Changluo suddenly seemed to understand something...

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, what was this person reminding himself of?
That being the case, how about giving you a reassurance?
After pondering for a moment, he took the collection of famous sages, flipped through it casually, stretched out his finger, and looked at Shen Yiguan with a smile.

Shen Yiguan was stunned for a moment, then looked down, suddenly his heart tightened, and he felt awe and fear.

In the same collection of famous sages, he pointed four characters to Zhu Changluo, and Zhu Changluo pointed eight characters to him.

But do good deeds, don't ask about the future; be convenient for others, convenient for yourself.

Shen Yiguan took a deep breath, with endless aftertaste in his heart, could it be said that this Prince Rui has already seen through his own meaning?
The two used the famous sages to play a dumb game. If others saw it, they would think that it was a master and a younger brother who were teaching each other, but only the other party understood in their hearts that this was telling the truth through the sages' words. What is in my heart.

Shen Yiguan is not only cunning, but also a cunning and cunning, but Zhu Changluo has a glass heart.The other party's words of "receive a kindness never forget", which have a lot of meaning and are intriguing, but Zhu Changluo immediately returned him with a sentence of "doing good deeds, don't ask about the future", and completely pointed out the little thoughts in Shen Yiguan's heart.

But this is nothing, what makes Shen Yiguan shuddering is the last sentence: it is convenient for others, it is convenient for yourself... This sentence literally seems to persuade people to be tireless, but at this moment it is sharp and sharp, pointing directly at the heart, It is full of the meaning of wake-up warning.

Although the Spring Festival is over now, the weather is still in the ninety-nines and it is extremely cold.The earth dragon is burning in the Wenhua Palace, and the room is as warm as spring.

Shen Yiguan suddenly felt a little cold, and shivered slightly, staring at the eight characters with his eyes, and cold sweat had already oozed from his forehead at some point.Stealing a glance at Zhu Changluo, seeing that the other party was close at hand, his expression was calm, a jade-like finger lightly tapped on the iron case, his face was half a smile, and a pair of crystal clear eyes were staring at him with a smile.

When trembling turned into trembling, Shen Yiguan's instinct of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil acquired through years of ups and downs told Shen Yiguan that if he offended this person in front of him, he would surely die a miserable death!

Convenience to others, convenience to oneself, this sentence is indeed a golden rule, the most reasonable statement.

So the old Shen Ge, who had been sly all his life, knelt down upright and sincerely: "Old minister Shen Yiguan, Xie Rui Wang Ye pointed out, I would like to follow His Highness from now on and do the work of a dog and a horse."

The next day, before the Longshu case of Emperor Wanli in Qianqing Palace, Shen Yitong's Shangshu was handed over.

This is a mediocre content, not new idea, and general literary talent, in which there are only a few sentences that are almost truthful, and its meaning is to invite the emperor to make Prince Rui the crown prince.

But that's enough.

So everyone got nervous...

On the night when Shen Yiguan went to the sparsely populated area, the Zheng Mansion, which hadn't been seen for a long time in the capital, was brightly lit.

Gu Xiancheng with a livid face was pacing back and forth in the secret room, looking out from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone to return.

Ye Xianggao looked anxious, looking at this gentleman who had never been so restless.

The book boy outside the door ran in with sweat, panting and said: "Sir, Mr. Zheng... is back!"
