reborn monarch

An urgent report was uploaded from the Fengtian Palace, and the giant ship successfully sailed, and all the ministers congratulated Emperor Qiyuan one after another.

Just as they were enjoying themselves, another good news came. A small official from the Ministry of Industry rushed to the hall, with a white eagle standing on his arm.

The eagle is a bird of prey, wild and unruly. At this time, it is not restrained, and it is indeed standing on the human arm obediently, motionless, which is strange.

The little official seemed to be very excited, so Natou bowed and said: "Your Majesty! Wen Xiang! The giant ship is trying to sail, and there are birds flying down the bow. Don't be surprised and don't leave. You are gentle and kind to your relatives. It is really auspicious. I am here to present your Majesty!"

The gray bird is another name for the eagle. According to legend, if the monarch is kind and not willing to kill, there will be a black bird flying here. It is one of the auspicious birds in auspiciousness.Every time such auspiciousness appears in the world, most kings will pardon the world, or pardon the felons who were killed after the autumn, and respond to the auspicious bird by not killing.

Wen Dang created this auspiciousness, but still wanted to save the life of Xiang Shan, the governor of Guangxi Province.Under Jiang Zaidao's insistence on a thorough investigation, although the governor of Guizhou Province has not yet pronounced a sentence, the charges found are enough to kill Xiang Shan several times.In the name of auspiciousness, one is to add luster to the shipbuilding achievements of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and the other is to keep Xiangshan's life quietly and calm the hearts of party members.

With the little official's call, Wen Jinli climbed up the ladder and said with a smile: "It seems that His Majesty's benevolence has moved the world, and he has specially sent Rui Niao here. I am more happy than happy, Your Majesty should celebrate. "

The rest of the Wen Party were on the alert, and were about to follow Wen Xiang's words and propose an amnesty, but Emperor Qiyuan smiled and said, "Wen Xiang is absurdly praised, and I really dare not boast of my kindness. Birds are rare in Beijing, but the Northeast Jurchen tribe I have the habit of keeping eagles. Xie Xiang, you have been fighting with Jurchen for half a year, have you ever seen their eagles?"

Gu Zhen asked the question knowingly. After Xie Jiuyuan came back, he told him about the scenery of the Northeast in detail. It was Xie Jiuyuan who told Gu Zhen about the Jurchens catching eagles and hunting.

In a certain confrontation when he just arrived on the battlefield, the Jurchen drove the eagle to assist in the battle, which left a deep impression on Xie Jiuyuan, and he was very interested in raising eagles.But when the captured Jurchen soldiers described the process of taming the eagle in detail, Xie Jiuyuan completely lost his mind.Training and restraining in such a cruel way, against nature, after all, it is more suitable for this kind of raptor to fly freely.

At this time, Emperor Qi Yuan brought the topic to the hostile Jurchen tribe, and the others dared not intervene easily. It might be the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, who would dare to answer it?

Xie Jiuyuan raised his eyebrows, and immediately cooperated with Emperor Qi Yuan tacitly, and replied: "Your Majesty, this kind of white eagle is just one of the 'Haitongqing' varieties worshiped by the Jurchen.

"Oh?" Emperor Qi Yuan immediately answered, "In other words, it is possible that this bird was raised by the Jurchens?"

Xie Jiuyuan: "It is indeed possible."

Seeing that the scheme was about to go bankrupt, Wen Jinli took a step forward, and said with a calm smile: "Your Majesty and Prime Minister Xie are too cautious, since they have been inspected and sent to the palace, so what if they are raised by the Jurchens? The white eagle I raised flew to the bow of the big Chu ship by itself, isn't it more of a destiny?"

Immediately there were bursts of echoes from Fengtian Hall.

Emperor Qi Yuan didn't refute, and said: "Mr. Wen's words are reasonable, Mr. Xie, do you know the Jurchen's password to drive the eagle to be raised? If you know, you can give it a try."

The face of the small official from the Ministry of Industry froze, although he tried to calm down, his legs couldn't help trembling slightly.To create auspiciousness, the white eagle must fly to the bow of the ship by itself, and it must not be startled by others. Of course, it is necessary to find an obedient white eagle. How can a wild eagle that has not been tamed be obedient?This white eagle was secretly purchased at a high price from the eagle family of the Jurchen tribe.

If Xie Xiangzhen can drive Bai Ying, the adults will be fine, and it will only be him, a poor man, who will be miserable.

"I only heard about it on the battlefield, but I don't remember it clearly. Since His Majesty has an order, I will dare to try it." Xie Jiuyuan said modestly.

Xie Jiuyuan raised his right arm flatly, and blew a flute sound from his mouth. The white eagle screamed, flew into the air, and landed on Xie Jiuyuan's right arm.

Wen Xiang immediately scolded the small official of the Ministry of Industry, "How unreasonable! You actually took the Jurchen eagle dog that fell on the huge ship by mistake as auspicious, what should you do!"

The little official from the Ministry of Industry looked pale and knelt down without arguing a word, just kowtowed.

"Forget it, get up," Emperor Qi Yuan didn't get angry, and curled his lips, "As Wen Xiang said, whether it's a Jurchen eagle dog or not, it landed on my big Chu ship, which just proves that my big Chu is the destiny. Return. Isn’t it a sign of a benevolent monarch, why not forgive such a small mistake.”

Unexpectedly, he was not punished, the little official almost shed tears for the rest of his life, kowtowed again, Xie En withdrew.

Did Emperor Qi Yuan recognize this auspiciousness? Wen Jinli wanted to wink at his subordinates, but Gu Zhen on the throne sighed.

"Since there is auspiciousness, I will take advantage of this opportunity given by God to say two things that are both public and private, and I hope all my lovers will take care of them."

All the ministers said hurriedly and dared not.

Gu Zhen continued: "Since Prime Minister Xie entered the court, he has not only given me a lot of guidance in government affairs, but also pacified Qianxi and Northeast China for me. In terms of military affairs, he has also inspired me a lot. I am in harmony with Prime Minister Xie. , although there is no name of master and apprentice, but there is the reality of master and apprentice. Therefore, I have long made up my mind to choose a day to worship and thank you as my teacher. Since there is auspiciousness today, I don’t want to waste people’s money, so I immediately set the name of master and apprentice. In private, I will pay homage to the teacher carefully. Master, after Gu Zhen, I will ask you to give me more guidance."

After Emperor Qi Yuan finished speaking, even Xie Jiuyuan was a little stunned, and the officials were even more surprised.But His Majesty wants to apprentice, and no one has any reason to stop him. The official censor couldn't help looking at Wen Jinli, hoping that Wen Xiang would start to object, but Wen Xiang seemed to be asleep and said nothing.

Wen Jinli could only remain silent.

Emperor Qiyuan's words clearly showed that Xie Jiuyuan had taught him a lot, and when he thought about it, it was because Wen Jinli hadn't seriously assisted him all these years?If Wen Jinli did guide the young Emperor Qiyuan, he could still argue at this time, but Wen Jinli had never taught Emperor Qiyuan, so he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb at this time, and watched Xie Jiuyuan accept the decree to thank him So, so what if there are more big officials in Xinjiang named Wen Jinli "Master"?He, Xie Jiuyuan, is now the emperor's teacher!

Wen Jinli gritted his teeth.

He didn't expect this to be just one of them.

Looking at Xie Jiuyuan for a while, Gu Zhen said again: "Another thing, I am ashamed to say, according to the ritual system, the princes and grandsons should be crowned twelve. I was in Xiuyun Temple at that time, and there was no one to take care of it. , National filial piety and family filial piety are in the body, no one reminds me, and I forgot about it."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and the faces of the ministers who had experienced the two emperors were all burning hotly.

The beginning of the crown ceremony is also the ceremony of adulthood, which can be described as the most important etiquette in one's life.

When the emperor has not performed the coronation ceremony until now, he has to bring it up by himself. These old officials are definitely dereliction of duty, let alone Wen Jinli, who was almost a regent when Emperor Qiyuan ascended the throne. As soon as he echoed, his loyal face was almost torn apart.

Not only the officials of the Ministry of Rites and Qin Tianjian knelt down, but all the officials immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Your negligence, you deserve death!"

"All the ministers and workers are also worried about the government." Emperor Qi Yuan said gently, "June is my 21st birthday, and the Qin Tianjian will choose a good day to crown me."

"Both my parents are gone. Today coincides with auspiciousness, and I worshiped my teacher again. I want to ask you to crown me, okay?"

He looked at Xie Jiuyuan, and the others only lamented that Xie Quite was deeply trusted by the emperor, but Xie Jiuyuan knew how much friendship Gu Zhen contained in this sentence, and immediately knelt down to accept the decree: "It is a blessing for the three lives of ministers to crown His Majesty."

"Okay!" Emperor Qi Yuan smiled, "Then I will leave everything to the master."

"Sir, I gladly accept the order."

An early morning passed, all the auspiciousness prepared by the Wen Party made a wedding dress for Xie Jiuyuan, which made Wen Jinli hate his teeth, and when he came home and saw Wen Chongde who was preparing to go to sea with his luggage, he was even more angry. He called for a counselor , I don’t plan to listen to this son’s nonsense anymore, and to do practical things is to seek skin from a tiger. Now that the Wen Party has been passive in the situation, he has to actively prepare to fight back.

In the newly renovated Sandalwood Hall, Xie Jiuyuan sat upright in the hall. Gu Zhen held a box of symbolic Shuxiu, knelt on the futon, and presented the Shuxiu to Xie Jiuyuan. Xie Jiuyuan took it. Apprentice etiquette.

"Master," Gu Zhen saw Xie Jiuyuan's eyes were as gentle as water, so he lay on his lap and called him deliberately, "Master, please give me a nice word."

Xie Jiuyuan touched the top of his head with his warm palm, and solemnly replied, "Of course."

Every last resort in his previous life has been recolored and added luster by his lover, telling him how to cherish and treat each other with all his heart.

So Xie Xie found out that his elder brother sneaked into the study room as soon as he came home recently. Xie Shixi peeked at it. There were balls of paper all over the floor, and the Four Books and Five Classics were thrown all over the floor. Words, it seems that too much favor is hard work, big brother is really not easy.

After half a month, the giant ship was ready to set sail.

Emperor Qiyuan decreed that the fleet visiting the West this time would be led by Wen Chongde and assisted by Jin Yiwei. The purpose was to open up maritime trade and communicate with Western nations.

Wen Jinli didn't expect his son to be reused by Emperor Qiyuan. He didn't know whether Emperor Qiyuan was playing balance or flattery. He had been telling Wen Chongde for a long time, but this son became more and more lazy. Temper a few times.

Xie Jingqing listened carefully to Xie Jiuyuan's instructions, but Xie Jiuyuan suddenly became very nagging for some reason, and there were new reminders to tell him almost every day. Xie Jingqing only felt that his eldest nephew was reluctant to part with him, and felt again that the eldest nephew in Baozi period relied on him Feeling that the emperor relies so much on his uncle, it fully shows how reliable, stalwart, and successful this uncle is. It feels so good that he walks with trembling.

As soon as he was flustered, Qin Jian looked down upon him.

Regarding Xie Jingqing's decision to go to sea, Qin Jian knew that he loved climbing and wading, and thought he wanted to show off his ambitions, so he didn't comment.I just sorted out the Western exchange records of the Ministry of Households that might be useful. Xie Jingqing hugged someone excitedly and wanted to chew, which shocked Qin Jian. The person pushed it out, and Xie Jingqing hit the wall unfortunately, moaning and begging Qin Jian to rub the non-existent bump on his head.

On the day the fleet set sail, Qin Jian did not come to see him off. Xie Jiuyuan sent him all the way to the ship, checked his luggage and the comfort of the cabin, and beat Xie Jingqing's men and servants of Xie's family who accompanied him before disembarking. Just opened.

Xie Jingqing went out of the cabin to say goodbye to Xie Jiuyuan on the shore, and returned to the cabin with a sigh.

Wangcai, who was sent to accompany him, asked, "Young master, are you feeling unwell?"

Xie Jingqing shook his head and sighed: "I am lovesick, you don't understand."

Wangcai was choked up, and wanted to go out to get him some tea, but was stopped by someone, who came to him and said, "Thank you, boss, my lord is here to invite you."

"Who?" Xie Jingqing reluctantly asked patiently, just lovesick!Who is so short-sighted!

"Master Wen Chongde."

unlucky.

But thinking of his elder nephew confessing that he should not only keep this person at a respectful distance, but also learn how to deal with foreigners from him, Xie Jingqing felt that sooner or later he would get in touch, and it would be better not to offend the villain, so he went to the appointment.

However, when they arrived at Wen Chongde's cabin, the two of them sat opposite each other at the table, but there was no aggressiveness as imagined, nor any yin and yang temptations. Wen Chongde actually said to him, "What I just heard The Story of a Small Country".

Xie Jingqing listened patiently, and frowned more and more as he listened. On the one hand, the story made him uncomfortable; Tell yourself a story with broken sleeves?But Wen Chongde spoke very seriously, as if he really wanted to tell a story, but this is even more strange, for no reason, it was just a chance encounter, why tell yourself such a pervasive story?

At the end of the story, the ending was very tragic. Wen Chongde asked: "What do you think of this story, Boss Xie? Can you comment on Wen?"

Xie Jingqing rolled his eyes: "Not really."

His reaction was actually a little rude, but Wen Chongde didn't seem to mind, his expression remained unchanged, and he asked again: "Then what does Boss Xie think of the infatuated man in the story?"

Xie Jingqing felt a little sorry for Wen Chongde's reaction. He took it seriously, frowned and said, "Infatuation? I didn't hear the slightest bit of infatuation. This person is extremely hypocritical, and he is just using the name of infatuation."

The author has something to say:

*Maybe the progress is a bit slow recently, I will speed up the pace and catch up with the plot as soon as possible

*As for Wen Chongde’s arrangement, on the one hand, I need to arrange a cheater for the protagonist to know the situation in the West; on the other hand, I want to write about him, because I want to abuse this kind of bad-natured person and presume it’s because of the person I love slag~

*This is the first time I wrote Gu Tan, the strategy and party struggle is naturally at the level of pediatrics, and the rhythm of the story is not good, but I basically thought about the plot of the characters before writing the article, so if you have any questions about the rhythm, progress, and the number of roles, you are welcome to ask. But don't compete with me with the plot that I didn't write, your imagination is not equal to my arrangement, right?It's just reading the text, the brain waves don't match up~
