Chapter 20 The twentieth round of debates on speeches and battles, Zhong Cuigong felt that the former cause issued an edict to release the untouchables

Wen Jue was also in a straight khaki gown and a bright red cassock, Xu Bu went down the steps and sat cross-legged opposite Liu Molin.He is not ethereal, but probably has good maintenance skills. He has thick eyebrows, white beard and ruddy complexion, and he is quite fairy-like.He nodded slightly to Liu Molin and put his palms together: "Since the layman knows that if he wants to participate in the three vehicles, he must go to the six roots first, so he dares to ask: What is the method of no eyes?" Habitat!" Someone in the crowd cheered loudly: "Good!" "How is it without ears?"

"Don't teach the Qiang flute to scare the willows, but don't play the flute to provoke the phoenix!" "How is the noseless method?" "Bluegrass does not occupy the air of a king, and day lily does not distinguish the fragrance of a daughter." "How is the tongueless method?" "Fortunately, I have never plowed into a black prison, why did you spit out green lotus?" "How is the law of incapacity?" "I'm used to be unclean and play Xizi, and I'm going to be a little actor in Hengchen!" "So—how is it unlawful?"

"It's just for the love to become a small calamity, but because there is no hindrance to the Lingtai!" Under Wen Jue's barrage of questioning, Liu Molin looked around and didn't care. He is suave and charming.Yongzheng originally hated this Tanhualang who "has ruined my reputation", but now he has a great love for talent, and he secretly thinks that this person is Dongfang Manqian!Just as he was thinking wildly, Liu Molin smiled and said, "You don't have to be embarrassed, I said it just now, it's just for fun. I'm a smart person, I don't have the same knowledge as a fool, and I don't fight with monks—the victory is not martial, and the defeat is enough for the world shame!"

"The layman is so wild." Kong Ling opened his eyes, staring at Liu Molin, and asked, "How can the layman be smart, and how can the monk be stupid?" Seeing that Wen Jue couldn't beat Liu Molin, he came out to help.Liu Molin said: "Great monk, have you read "Biography of the Lamp"? In the past, the fifth patriarch Hongren lived the world in a cassock, and among the five hundred disciples, he would choose a blunt man to spread the Dharma. Therefore, the Golden Lotus Dharma Realm is not a place for wise people to step in. What? Called 'dumb man'? Idiot too!" After saying that, he laughed!

Kong Ling was furious all of a sudden, his face was blue, yellow, and blood red for a while, and he clapped his hands together to say something, but it was a six-character mantra: "Om...well...well...ba...uh...hum..." eyes He stared straight at Liu Molin.Liu Molin was still smiling at first, but his face suddenly changed when he smiled, as if all the blood in his body was drained at once, and he groaned with a pale face and collapsed down motionless! The crowd was in an uproar immediately, Wang Wenshao, Yin Jishan and several other Jinshi of the same year rushed forward, helping the pulse, touching the nose, pinching the person, when they were helping Liu Molin, how could there be any vitality?Everyone suddenly became a mess.Yin Jishan scolded: "Monk! Is this the behavior of a monk?" Wang Wenshao said: "Please kill his bald donkey with the sword of the emperor!" Dare to practice sorcery under the sky, and poison the court officials, the crime is unforgivable, and should be punished severely by the Tianfu!" At this time, people knew that the emperor had already arrived, and they knelt down.Yongzheng walked up to the unconscious Liu Molin, looked at him, and asked Kong Ling, who was sitting with his eyes closed, "Did you put him to death?"

"Amitabha!" Without raising his eyelids, Kong Ling clasped his hands together and replied: "Lay Liu blasphemed the Three Jewels (Buddha, Dharma, and monks are the "Three Jewels" of Buddhism), and committed crimes for himself, and has nothing to do with poor monks!" Not to death. You have violated the law of the country by causing him to die. Do you know that?" Kong Ling opened his eyes and glanced at Yongzheng, smiled, and said, "Let the lord do what he wants!" "Very good!" Yongzheng ordered with a sneer, "Come here, set up the oil cauldron and blow up this stinky skin!"

"tie!" The eunuchs hurriedly agreed, but they couldn't find the "oil cauldron" that could blow people up. In the end, the imperial dining room sent a large cauldron for killing pigs. Burn up.In an instant, green smoke swirled around the oily flowers, accompanied by the sound of beeping under the pot and the sound of sparks exploding, all the people were so frightened that everyone was ashen-colored.Seeing that Yongzheng was going to issue an order to kill, Zhang Tingyu knelt down on his knees with a pale face and said: "Long live! The slave wants to persuade!"

"Uh, uh?" "The country governs the world with Confucianism and Taoism. Wansui respects Buddhism and Taoism, and recruits monks to pray in the palace. I originally disagreed, and Wansui knew it. But Wansui originally prayed for the Empress Dowager, which is filial piety, so I have to encourage By your order..." "Well, what else?" "The demon monk's execution of the law to the death of the imperial court official has violated the fourteenth item of the thirty-second paragraph of the "Great Qing Law", and it should be handed over to the Si Yamen for punishment according to the law. Long live should not be punished with non-criminal punishment, so that future generations in the world will not follow it!"

Although he didn't say much, two of them are very reasonable: you shouldn't have messed with these things in the palace, and if you commit a crime, you should be dealt with according to the law. If you fry Kong Ling in public, you will inevitably attract more ridicule Criticism.Yongzheng was about to speak while pondering, Kong Ling had already stood up, walked around the boiling oil pan, and said with a smile: "Master Wenjue, your Zen school is based on extinction, can you stand this fried fruit pan?" Jue was so flustered that he was confused, and seeing Kong Ling calmly wanted to debate the Dharma sect with him, he clasped his hands together and hurriedly said: "The great monk has committed a crime! Greed, hatred, ignorance and release of the three precepts, you have already violated the precepts and entered reincarnation—— Why don't you rescue Liu Tanhua soon?"

"This idea may not blow up the poor monk. It's the word 'ang' you said, the poor monk has indeed violated the precept." Kong Ling said, sticking his arm into the oil!Everyone was startled, and dozens of people stared at Kong Ling silently.I saw him muttering sutras in his mouth, paddling gently with his hands in the boiling oil, groping for something, and suddenly lifted out a green lotus with leaves and roots from the pot with both hands!Yongzheng was so dazzled by the sight that he opened his mouth wide and could not utter a word.Kong Ling smiled and held the lotus, and said: "If you can't take the green lotus from the fire, what 'treasure' can Buddhists and monks have? This is bestowed by the Lord, thank you!"

Yongzheng's face was pale, he clapped his hands together for a long time, and said, "Master is really a Living Buddha, I...in order to test Master's mana, I had no choice but to do this. Please the Living Buddha show mercy, this Liu Molin is a useful talent..." "What's so difficult about this?" Kong Ling laughed loudly, "Bring a bowl of clear water!" A young eunuch Fei also seemed to run away, filled a bowl full of clear water with a jade bowl, and handed it to Kong Ling, who took Qinglian into her mouth. In his arms, he walked and recited, still repeating "Om Padme..." several times, then took a sip of water and sprayed it on Liu Molin's head, saying verses in his mouth: Mo, mo, mo!Don't be angry!Tanhua is not fake, and the monk is not real.Know Lingtai Road, but with a little heart.Duh - the mouse shrinks its head to avoid the cat! He compounded his palms and recited the six-character mantra, and Liu Molin sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes as if he had just woken up, and asked in a daze, "What's wrong with me?" For a moment, everyone regained their composure, and each secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Yongzheng said with a smile: "You went to the gate of hell once, and the master invited you back, so you still refuse to convert to my Buddha?" Liu Molin recognized it was Yongzheng, turned over and kowtowed, but said in his mouth: " Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor, so what ability does Buddhism have? This morning, I was in a hurry to enter the palace. I didn’t eat. I was always weak. I was basking in the sun. Home!" Seeing his stubborn disobedience, Yongzheng appreciated him, and said with a smile, "Do you still want to try the power of the six-character mantra again?" "What six-character mantra?" Liu Molin turned his face and smiled at Kong Ling, "I just heard you say 'I'll coax you'!" Everyone immediately roared with laughter, even Kong Ling Wenjue couldn't help laughing so hard.Yongzheng coughed and laughed, and said, "Okay, okay! This is a real celebrity! Tomorrow, you will work as an errand at the military plane, and help forward the memorial and draft the edict!" So from now on, Liu Molin handed over his job as an editor at the Imperial Academy, and went directly to the Military Aircraft Office to handle clerical matters.Yongzheng also liked that he was funny and wise, and he knew all kinds of books, so he called for advisers from time to time.In my spare time, I often take Fang Bao, Ma Qi, Long Kedo and Liu Molin with me, playing chess, discussing poetry, fishing, or painting and calligraphy. go.Liu Molin waited carefully with all his energy.Just at this time, Nian Gengyao moved the Xingyuan from Ganzhou to defend Xining. The military affairs were complicated. There were more than a dozen pieces of pieces from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Xingyuan every day. Send it to the Hall of Mental Cultivation by Liu Molin or consult Zhang Tingyu.Yongzheng was not afraid of being annoying, and he must read every fold.Therefore, Liu Molin was vacillating between the emperor's prime minister and the prince without touching his feet.Among the six films, people have the sharpest eyes. Seeing that this is an upstart that is about to leap, which one should not "introduce the ground"?Because no matter on duty or not, Liu Molin is always surrounded by a group of decent officials, greetings, matters, visits, thanks...everything is there, and all the stars pay their respects all day long.Although Liu Molin felt tired, he was also satisfied.But Su Shunqing didn't get rid of her lowly status, it was a matter of official admonition, and she was afraid of Xu Jun and others to bite her, so she didn't dare to handle the marriage for a while. Look at the arrival of May and the scorching summer sun.This May is also known as the "poisonous month", and there are many taboos in Pepsi.Temple visits in various temples in the capital sent sparse and burnt mounts to the benefactor Tanyue, exposed beds and mats in the palace, dismantled curtains and bedding, pasted celestial master amulets, hung pictures of Zhong Kui, made musk purses, soaked realgar wine, steamed millet, and made cattail swords Peng whip, picking herbs to make willow leaf tea, sewing longevity thread, and buying anti-evil pills, people are very busy.Although Liu Molin didn't believe these things, after that day, he also felt a little bit better. When he saw the servants tossing about these things, he just smiled and ignored them.On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Molin, the star of the day, put on his clothes and went to court as soon as he got up. Last night, he received Nian Gengyao's military report and asked for 50,000 sets of jackets for the soldiers of the Western Expedition. Didn't have time to handle it.According to Yongzheng's strict decree, the time has already been delayed, so I have to go early to make up the paperwork - I went to Xihuamen to hand over the sign, and when I heard that Zhang Tingyu had just entered, Liu Molin breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Bu went to the computer room to write the ticket. .This is something that can be done in a short time. After Liu Molin finished writing, the eunuch Sura on duty at the Military Aircraft Office sent it to the household department immediately. Gao Wuyong, the eunuch of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, came in and said with a smile: "Master Liu, the emperor told you to go in." "Call me?" Liu Molin was startled, and quickly got up to agree, "Yes!——Is it just calling me?" Gao Wuyong said: "There are also Thirteenth and Fourteenth Lords. The other princes, Baylor and Beizi, were not passed on by me I don't know. The emperor is going to give a feast to all the officials, and post calligraphy and paintings in Guangsheng Tower. Whose calligraphy is better, and there will be rewards!" Liu Molin felt relieved, followed Gao Wuyong in, and saw Zhang Tingyu standing in the Hall of Mental Cultivation Beckon under the eaves.Liu Molin hurriedly went forward to pay his respects, and asked, "Has the emperor woke up?" Zhang Tingyu looked very happy, and said: "The emperor has been up for half an hour. Today is the solemn festival. We must first go to Qin'an Hall, Doutan, Tianqiong Hall, Zhongcui Palace, and Jianfu Palace to burn incense. Yan, Qing Beizi, Baobei Le, and Fu Bei Le are accompanying you, and now the sacrifices are gone. The rest of the princes, Bei Zi Bei Le, have already been passed on to others, and they are waiting in Guangsheng Building." Liu Molin couldn't get the point, so he tried He asked: "Zhang Zhongtang, I came here on order. I don't know what errand Wansui has summoned. Can you let me know?" Zhang Tingyu smiled and said, "Long live wrote a few banners, and I want you to choose a good one." There are hundreds of calligraphy and paintings in Guangsheng Building today, none of which belong to the name, nor does the Long Live Lord’s. Ask the ministers to compare which one is the best. You can do the errands for posting calligraphy and painting in Guangsheng Building, you can’t scan them Long live the joy of the Lord!" Liu Molin was stunned for a moment, Yongzheng's handwriting was unspoken, but the hundreds of words were not named, and Yongzheng's words were mixed in the middle, who can be sure that he will be the first in the list?In case of losing the ranking, or in the second or third place, what should the person who won the first place do with himself?Thinking about it, Liu Molin's head was already dripping with sweat, but after all, he was quick-witted, and after thinking about it for a while, he had an idea, and said with a smile: "Long live is common in Shangshufang and Liubu Jiuqing, needless to say. I'm just afraid Some people down below don’t know how to get up and down, and make random comments. I’m thinking about this matter, and it’s absolutely impossible to mark it on the paper, or put another sheet in a prominent place. Only pass out the sentence written by Wanzai, and the next person will know what the master wrote. It's easy to handle—this kind of thing has to be passed on to an eunuch, and it must be fast!" Zhang Tingyu bowed his head to think about it, and he had no choice but to do so, and said: "Then it's a no-nonsense thing to do—I think it's better if everyone speaks out. "Liu Molin said: "Everyone chooses the word Long Live, which obviously shows that we have tampered with it, which is not good. But there are a few unlucky people who criticize it, but it seems true. Besides, they all know what's inside. If you have master’s calligraphy, you won’t be talking nonsense.” As they spoke, the three of them entered the hall, and they saw more than a dozen calligraphy and paintings on rice paper lined up on a long ebony table inlaid with dragons inside, but they were all selected lines from Tang poems: Xinsong hates not being tall The evil bamboo should be chopped off ten thousand poles Lush grass Desert Dust The water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky If there is love, the sky will be old I want to cause the dream of Wu Yue Taohuayuanshui Liu Molin sighed: "My lord, this word has indeed reached the point where it has reached the point of perfection, I'm afraid the pen is too rigid, and some soft and charming literati may not catch the eye - they are all good, how do I choose?" After careful consideration for a long time, He chose a picture of "Two Orioles Singing Green Willows, A Line of Egrets Going to the Blue Sky", and chose two pairs of "Peach Blossoms in Yuanshui" and asked Zhang Tingyu: "Zhongtang, choose the best from the best, I'm afraid these two pairs are the best. What do you think?" ?” "Well, in terms of writing power, these two couplets are indeed the best." Zhang Tingyu held his chin and thought about it, "As far as the charm is concerned, I think I should add two more - 'Da Mo' and 'Xin Song'. Long live left and right After a while, I will recommend two more copies to be judged by the master." Liu Molin neatly placed the four pairs of words in a conspicuous place, copied the small characters and handed them to Gao Wuyong: "Hurry up and deliver it, maybe someone will pay for your letter Son!" Gao Wuyong smiled and agreed again and again, as soon as he exited the hall, he saw Xingnian Li Dequan and his guards De Lengtai, Su Lun, Liu Tiecheng, Zhang Wuge and a large group of people came down from Yongzheng, and hurriedly turned sideways to pass.Zhang Tingyu and Liu Molin had already knelt down to receive him.Yongzheng looks very good today, wearing a tasseled crown of ten thousand silk and raw silk on his head, a blue gauze gown covered with azurite gauze embroidered with foreign gold and gold dragon coat, wearing blue satin Liangli soap boots, he came in with great interest, and took a look at Zhang Tingyu , but said to Liu Molin: "Tanhualang, have you read my words? Which one suits your taste?" Liu Molin hurriedly apologized with a smile: "The servant and Zhang Zhongtang are in a difficult situation! They are all picky-when is the master?" I'm happy, and I also reward the slave with a few words, which is the good fortune of the slave's ancestors' accumulated virtues! ——I chose these four pairs with Zhang Zhongtang for half a day, and I have to ask the emperor to make a decision before sending them to Guangshenglou for hanging." "Okay!" Yongzheng said Looking at the four words hanging in the middle, he nodded thoughtfully, picked out two words "Peach Blossom Yuanshui" and "Da Mo Gu Yan Zhi", and said: "Too much is not good, just these two words. ——Just now I said rewarding characters, and you can choose a pair of the rest. Ting Yu, what characters do you want, I will write them for you with the pen and ink ready." "Thank you, master." Zhang Tingyu hurriedly kowtowed, and said, "I have long wanted to ask for my master's calligraphy, but I dare not open it. I recently renovated the gate of the house, and I beg my master to give me a pair of couplets to brighten the lintel!" Yongzheng nodded and laughed. "It's true that I'm not in the mood to play with words. These big cases are over, and I feel a little relieved. Well, I'll give you a pair of couplets!" As he spoke, his pen was full of ink, and after a little thought, he printed the letters in block letters on the rice paper. wrote: Huang Enchun's mighty Wenzhi Sunguanghua After writing it, he looked at it carefully, stamped it with a small seal, and wrote the date, month, and date, and handed it to Zhang Tingyu, "Do you think it can be done?" Zhang Tingyu took it with both hands, and his eyes glowed with joy, "...how can I be a slave? How about these ten words? Grinding a servant into powder will not repay the great kindness of the Lord Long Live!" Tears welled up in his eyes as he spoke. At that moment, Liu Molin also chose it, but it was a couplet of "two orioles", but Yongzheng did not use a seal, but only printed the word "Yuanming Jushi" with cinnabar mud, and said with a smile: "'Yuanming' has the meaning of Buddhism, You don't believe in Buddhism, so it's a decent gift from a monk, so I'll give it to you—Xing Nian, take these two sheets to Guangsheng Tower—don't let them be in the middle, do you hear me?" Seeing Liu Molin also wanted to resign Going out, Yongzheng said again: "Just stop, and go with Tingyu in a while." Liu Molin had no choice but to stop. "Tingyu," Yongzheng's expression became solemn, his voice a little sluggish, "Nian Gengyao has been out for almost half a year, and I only want things and money, and I haven't paid for the war so far. I feel very uneasy. I want to discuss it with you." Do you want to send an imperial envoy to supervise the army?" Zhang Tingyu thought for a long time in silence, and said: "The master's intention is that the slave sighs, and wants to win this battle as soon as possible. But the use of troops is different from government affairs, and a fall is irreversible. Nian Gengyao was already a general when he followed the late emperor to the west, and it was his strength to advance with caution. The famous generals of this dynasty have different tactics. Bahai is good at maneuvering and has endurance and can last; Haishan is capable of attacking tough battles; Flying ancient good battle formations, he can fight hard; Zhou Peigong is versatile, wise, far-sighted and resourceful, and he is an all-rounder. It is a pity that the wind and clouds have passed away, and they are all dead. Looking at the situation in a certain year, the deployment is restrained, and the scale of advance and retreat is very cautious. After following in the footsteps of Tuhai, he is also seeking to complete his achievements in one battle, and he is determined to win. The master does not need to be anxious. From the humble opinion of the slave, it is not too late to enter Pingliang in March and push to Xining in April. The military aircraft can send another 600 miles Hurry up and ask Yue Zhongqi to dismantle the documents, and ask Nian and Yue to discuss and play together, when will we be able to fight with Luo Bu Zang Tenzeng, long live?" Yongzheng frowned and said nothing, looking at Liu Molin for a long while, saying: "If you have any opinion, please tell me." It was the first time for Liu Molin to discuss such an important military and state affairs. After thinking for a while, he replied: "I think Zhang Tingyu is right. Kangxi was defeated in fifty-six years, and none of the 60,000 Shandong disciples survived. The lessons learned from the past are frightening. If you win, you can't afford to lose. Nian Gengyao marched cautiously, and the minister thought that he was looking at the overall situation. As for sending a supervisory army to supervise the war, the minister thought it was impossible. The changes of wood and soil in the Ming Dynasty, the defeat of Songshan until the Jiashen Dingge, it was just Because the general's imperial court was eccentric, he often sent a supervising army to restrain the general. One army and two commanders, different opinions on one matter, is the most taboo of military strategists. Therefore, the holy ancestor used Shi Lang exclusively when he conquered Taiwan. Food and salaries are used to support the military—you can only ask Nian Gengyao when to march and when to fight to ensure the supply of military supplies, and you can’t transfer military affairs and send personnel to supervise the battle, that will ruin a big deal.” "You don't need to be suspicious, and you don't need to be suspicious." Yongzheng said to himself, "Okay——in that case, we won't send imperial envoys. Tingyu, you choose ten of the second-class guards. It's better to be younger. Those who hope to become talented, draw up a list for me and send them to serve in Nian Gengyao's army." Zhang Tingyu heard that Yongzheng was worried about General Nian who was out supporting his troops, and suddenly he felt a heartbeat, and hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: " Yue Zhongqi's qualifications and military achievements are actually comparable to Nian Gengyao's. With him, the court is still easy to control..." "Where did you go!" Hand over hundreds of thousands of soldiers to him? Think about it, if the Holy Patriarch had sent more youngsters to learn how to use soldiers in Fei Yang's camp, why would it be so troublesome to choose a commander today?" Only then did Liu Molin suddenly realize, and he stared at Yongzheng in admiration without saying a word.However, Zhang Tingyu knew the nature of Yongzheng well. Nian Gengyao had thousands of young benefactors, so why sent guards all the way to "learn how to use soldiers"?Wanting to think about it, he said in his mouth: "Long live the sage, think about long-term plans, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be convinced!" "Liu Molin," Yongzheng took a sip of tea leisurely, and said with a smile, "You are quite a talented person. I heard that you had a hot fight with a brothel girl, but there are?" Liu Molin's head thumped, He hurriedly knelt down and replied: "This fact is true. I think that love has no distinction between high and low. Although Su Shunqing is from a lowly background, she does not sell her body as a performer. She guards her body like a jade, so she cannot be regarded on the same level as ordinary prostitutes. Kuang Chen and Su are confidantes. Abandoning lowliness is unrighteous, please be enlightened by the Lord! Now that the Lord has said this, I beg the Lord to get rid of Su Shunqing's humble status and fulfill this marriage." Yongzheng nodded and said with a smile: "It's nothing to be talented and romantic. It's a matter of great importance, but only for Su Shunqing to be expelled, it seems too narrow to use kindness. Hengchen, I intend to issue a clear edict that all the untouchables in the world will be expelled from their nationality, farming, studying, fishing and woodcutters, just like the common people, what do you think?" This is a very important decree, "farming, studying, fishing and woodcutters are the same as the common people", then the eight opera singers and drummers may become officials. As a famous eunuch and Confucianist, Zhang Tingyu disagrees with him from the bottom of his heart.But he also vaguely heard that when Yongzheng was the prince, he was rescued from the flood by Lehu and fell in love with an untouchable woman. Today, he just borrowed Liu Molin's matter to fulfill his long-cherished wish, and blatantly opposing him is equivalent to giving himself A curse.Thinking about it, he said with a smile: "The lord is benevolent, this is really good governance. Since Yongle in the previous Ming Dynasty, the old ministers of Jianwen were deposed, and they were reduced to pariahs. For hundreds of years, millions of people have multiplied. The dire situation is like the darkness under the rain , Once you get out of the sky, are you afraid that your family will burn incense to the Buddha? However, after careful consideration, this kind of untouchables have been doing lowly business for a long time, and they don't know how to make a living. , should be left to their own free will. Another thing is that officials and herdsmen are important tools for a gentleman. If they suddenly leave their nationality, they can take the exam and enter the temple. The original purpose of the heavy way?" "Okay!" Yongzheng thought for a long time with his face up, and felt that Zhang Tingyu's memorial was impeccable, so he said with a smile, "This is an old saying that seeks to seek the country, that's it, just make it clear after drafting the decree." Said, Xing Nian He came in and called Qian'er and said, "Master, the calligraphy and paintings in Guangshenglou are all set up, and the banquet is set up. All the princes, Bei Le, and Master Yan have already assembled in front of Guangshenglou." So Yongzheng took a soft sedan chair, Zhang Tingyu was at his side, and Liu Molin came from behind, meandering towards Guangsheng Building, which is located in the northwest of the Forbidden City.When passing through the imperial garden, Yongzheng saw a new arch bridge built on the lotus pond, and the bridge railing was not yet installed, so he got off the sedan chair, supported Xing Nian with one hand and Gao Wuyong with the other to get on the bridge.Liu Molin followed behind and said: "Master, this is called step by step climbing!" Yongzheng was silent, and when he got off the bridge, he asked again: "Liu Molin, what is this called?" Liu Molin laughed: "This is called 'the back is higher than the front'!" Yongzheng couldn't help laughing, Zhang Tingyu frowned secretly when he saw that he could climb the pole so well.After crossing the bridge, I saw the three elder brothers of Hongshi, Hongli and Hongri coming out from the east gate of the imperial garden.Yongzheng stood still with a blank face, and asked, "Has your calligraphy been posted?" "Huang Ama," Hong Shi hurriedly bowed and smiled apologetically, "My fifth brother and I each gave three sets, Hongli got two sets, and the eunuch said that Ama only chose two sets, and our brothers each lost one set. It's all eunuchs who go to hang up, and the ministers dare not presume to cheat." "Well." Yongzheng looked at the three sons and asked, "Hongli, why did you only choose one pair?" Hongli said with a smile: "My son's calligraphy is not very good, so I dare not compete with Huang Ama and Shulin. Su Confucianism is relatively short and long-term, and it is not against the holy order." Yongzheng said: "Forget it, you don't have to attend the imperial banquet today, and pour wine for the courtiers. They have been busy for half a year , you should act as hosts on my behalf, and you should be more courteous." After saying that, he left the west gate of the imperial garden.The hungry ministers who had been waiting at the banquet table in front of Guangsheng Building saw them pass by, knelt down and shouted: "Long live!" Yongzheng nodded and smiled, and said: "Get up, everyone! Today we will meet friends with calligraphy and ink. Monarchs and ministers should not be too restrictive. If you are too restrictive, it will be tasteless. It is not too late for delicious food. Let's look at these calligraphy and paintings first, and judge the champion before entering the table!" "So Yongzheng took the lead, and more than a hundred Ministers of the Ministry, Du Yushi, Minister of Lifan (Manchu), Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and people from the Imperial Academy were all honored regardless of rank.Below the bachelor's degree in charge, hundreds of people who attended the bachelor's degree, served as the lecturer, read, lectured, edited, edited, and reviewed, followed the ministers of the study room, Longkoduo, Zhang Tingyu, Yunxiang, Yunyu, etc. The king fished in. Guangsheng Tower is the largest watchtower in the East Six Palaces. Because the King Guangmu is enshrined on the tower, the eunuchs call it "Guangsheng Tower".The sacrificial land downstairs is circular, about half an acre in size, surrounded by large glass windows, which is very spacious and bright. Calligraphy and paintings of the Hanlin and ministers are all posted here, and there are a total of about two hundred pairs.Half of the characters are "Holy Heaven Yaode" and "Longevity without Boundaries", half are Tang poetry and Song Ci, and the ink is dripping and the pen is like a dragon and snake, all of which have been exhausted.There are also some paintings, but most of them are "flowers blooming and wealth", "national beauty and heavenly fragrance", or spring orchids, or autumn chrysanthemums, or galloping horses, or lying cows, or landscapes, or dragons and phoenixes.Everyone already knew it in their hearts, watched silently, searched for Yongzheng's words, and secretly wrote them on a note to prepare for a mission.But Yongzheng stood still in front of a picture of Zhong Kui and looked at it carefully.He said with a smile, "This painting is really fascinating, but unfortunately there is no inscription and postscript. Who can add color to this painting with an impromptu poem?" "May I have a try?" Liu Molin, who was unable to participate in the calligraphy and painting competition, was eager for his own skills. Seeing that no one dared to respond, he said loudly, "I write a poem for this painting!" He picked up a pen on the small table, dipped it in thick ink, stared at the painting for a while, and wrote quickly: The face is ferocious and courageous, and the map of the red and green seats is hanging. Zongjun's ability to sweep away demons and demons, so as not to make ghosts draw symbols in the world! A stroke of Huai Su's wild grass is like a gust of wind and rain, it is really hearty, and before everyone can applaud, Yongzheng said anxiously: "You can add another song!" "tie!" Liu Molin didn't hesitate, and didn't dip in the ink anymore, and continued with a song: The title of Jinshi is also annoying to the public, and it is difficult to paint on the belly when angry. Who will arrive first in the final shortcut?Press the sword to lose the king and become a ghost hero! "Okay!" Seeing his talent, Yongzheng couldn't help praising him, "Whether the writing is good—is it okay?" Liu Molin remained silent, and Xiang Huatian made another song: When did you take a photo in the world?Duanyang drives away plague everywhere.Alas!There are countless spooks and monsters in the world, and there are billions of bodies in the king's body, but the ghosts directly teach the souls! Yongzheng stood in front of the picture and looked at it again and again, then turned around and asked: "Who painted this Zhong Kui? With this poem, it can be collected in Sanxi Hall and sealed for future generations." After that, he ordered: "Have a feast! The top two or three selected by everyone will be submitted to the Hanlin Academy, and the Hanlin will judge impartially!" So the officials thanked each other and took their seats.Because Yongzheng didn't see Wang Jie, he asked Ma Qi, "Why don't you see Master Wang?" Ma Qi whispered, "Wang Jie has been ill for two days, and he has diarrhea. He was going to write a posthumous manuscript yesterday. The servant went to see him and comforted him a few times. Sentence. Mr. Fang Bao went to see him today because he was afraid that something might happen. If he is really seriously ill, it won’t be too late to write the will.” Yongzheng saw that he didn’t dare to move unless he put down his chopsticks, so he said with a smile: “ The Queen Mother has recovered from her illness in the past few days, and I am very happy. I am going to pay her respects today. Lafayette said that in a year, there is New Year's Day, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the fifteenth day of the eighth month, and the Dragon Boat Festival. I have been busy for a long time. Tell the errands to relax—give some of the meat to the guards, let’s use it as much as you want!" After finishing speaking, he took a sip of the wine and another bite of vegetables, and everyone dared to eat with their chopsticks.Only then did Yongzheng beckon to Li Dequan: "Ask the three elder brothers to persuade everyone to drink around the table. You go to the imperial pharmacy and see that there is Xianyingge (antidiarrheal medicine), and send some to Master Wang. If Mr. Fang has returned to Changchun Garden , presented him with a banquet in the same way as here." "Zha!" Li Dequan hurriedly replied, "Returning to the master's words, there are Xianyingge, but they are not familiar with them yet, can they be used?" Yongzheng said: "If you are not familiar with them, you can't use them. The old ones are powerful, and the nature is too familiar. Paying attention to the amount can also be used. Yangxin Palace also has some papaya cream, which is the best for relieving diarrhea, so I also send some." Li Dequan hurriedly agreed and went.Yongzheng took the chief seat himself, chatting and joking with everyone, and only occasionally had a bite of vegetarian dishes, but he didn't drink alcohol. The three elder brothers of Hongshi, Hongli, and Hongzhou also came in at five drums in the morning. After finishing their homework in Yuqing Palace, they read the chapters of "Four Books" assigned by Yongzheng, and then turned to serve Yongzheng.It was almost noon, and the three golden branches and jade leaves were so hungry that they were so hungry that they didn't allow them to sit at the table, and told them to take turns at the table. Looking at the table full of delicacies, they dared not eat a single bite, and dared not complain.Hongli and Hongzhou were fine, but Hongshi looked unhappy.After finally persuading the 14 or 5 tables, seeing that the imperial scholars had submitted the papers for the selection of calligraphy and painting, it was a waste of time. Hongshi had a wink, and the three of them withdrew from the Guangsheng Building.But I saw dozens of guards eating gizzards.The large plate carried from the Tianqiong Temple was full of cooked gizzards, and it was steaming hot, exuding a strong aroma of meat.Hongshi said: "Fourth and fifth brothers, are you hungry?" "I'm not hungry." Hongli said, "This is gills. Even if I'm hungry, I don't dare to eat it without my will. Brother Zhou, you have always been weak and hungry. I still have two dollars on my desk in Yuqing Palace Snacks, ask someone to bring them to you to satisfy your hunger." Hongzhou was only eleven years old, and his stomach was growling with hunger, but gizzard meat was used for ancestor worship, and no one dared to eat it without a will.He blinked his small eyes, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said, "I'm not hungry either." Hongshi sneered and said, "What's so valuable about this meat? The guards have eaten it, but we can't move it?" Then he stepped forward and cut three pieces with a knife, put them on a plate, and pushed them to each of Hongli and Hongzhou. On a plate, I picked a piece with a knife and was about to put it to my mouth. Xing Nian rushed out to pass the order: "Baby, Long Live is calling you in!" "Should we call fourth brother alone, or should we all go?" "Long live is called Hongli alone, but I never heard that it is called Er Er Ye." "You don't know what to call him?" "Returning to the third master, long live to give the baby meat!" Hongshi's face immediately became extremely ugly, and he even threw the knife and meat into the plate with a bang, and said to Hongli with a half-smile: "Fourth brother, it seems that you are very lucky, and we brothers will touch you It's time for you." Hongli knew that his brother was teasing, so he only bowed slightly to Hongshi, and hurriedly followed Xing Nian into the Guangsheng Building.
