Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

Don't look at the big prince's full moon banquet, which the royal family specially waited for to hold on the holiday, but in the end they only held a small family banquet with no more than a dozen guests:

In the inner palace, even Empress Guo said that she was sick, except for Empress Dowager Liu and Concubine Pang, there were only a few concubines who wanted to please the Pang family;

In the outer dynasty, except for a few relatives, the adults who are eligible to attend are more willing to enjoy the holiday, and will not rush to take advantage of the heat just because the eldest prince is likely to be the next emperor.

But even if there were not many people at the small family banquet, apart from Taishi Pang and Yan Shu who had just returned to the imperial court, only the eight virtuous king Zhao Defang and Mrs. Di and his wife were in the imperial family. Even the son and daughter-in-law of the eight virtuous king did not attend for some reason——

But these people are enough!

Empress Dowager Liu just nodded, and several people cheered and saluted her, and you and I said a word, boasting about the hardships of Empress Dowager Liu who had to face the court as a woman in the past few years because of her husband's bereavement. , and highly praised her for being upright and wise now that she is just a little bit out of spirit, and she hastened to return to power if she made a slight mistake, and she is not greedy...

In short, high hats come one after another. The high hats sent by poets like Yan Shu are extraordinarily elegant and exquisite. Even if they don’t co-write any existing poems and rhymes, they are still beautiful and good sentences that can be handed down from generation to generation. .

It was originally intended to record the daily life of the First Prince Full Moon, and it has been diligently written.

Empress Dowager Liu: "..."

Empress Dowager Liu is still Empress Dowager Liu after all.

Although she was in a trance for a moment, after looking deeply at Xiang Xiaojiu, Empress Dowager Liu smiled, without the slightest shadow in her eyes:

"That's right, I've always been only worried about the young officials, and also thinking about the entrustment of the late emperor, and I can't bear to let go..."

Empress Dowager Liu turned her head to look at the emperor, her eyes were not very gentle, but it was rare to see some kindness and expectation:

"Now you are also a father, I am an old and dark person, I really should let go!"

The emperor's heart trembled.

It is absolutely false to say that he does not want to be in charge of the government. Which emperor would be happy to sit in the Dragon Court by himself, but behind him there is a big Buddha like Empress Dowager Liu to respect and obey?

It's just that the emperor thought that he was a step-son, and the empress dowager Liu treated him tenderly and lovingly all these years, but she never regarded him as her own son, but she never did anything perfunctory in what should be taught—

Therefore, although the emperor never dared to get close to Empress Dowager Liu as a loving mother, he actually treated her as a "strict father" and filially obeyed her.

Even if he wants to be in charge of the government, he always abides by filial piety.

Regardless of how Taishi Pang and others planned with him in private, the emperor persuaded them instead:

"Ma'am is very talented, and she still has energy. I have to watch and learn for a few more years, and I will benefit from it."

At this moment, seeing Empress Dowager Liu and Xiang Xiaojiu rushing to talk, she agreed to return to power. The emperor was also happy at the beginning.

After the first joy, what came to my mind along with ambition, but also a little bit at a loss.

Therefore, when it comes to "the emperor is always hale and hearty, I need you to mention more", it is also sincere.

Grand Master Pang and others were so anxious, but it was hard to say too much, so the eighth princess Di Niang Niang said with a smile:

"It's always the aunt's kindness that raises the official family like this. How can the two boys in my family be allowed to be happy until they become fathers?"

He also persuaded the emperor: "The aunt has worked hard for many years. Now that the official family is a father, it is time for her to enjoy the happiness."

Di Niangniang's words were nice, but she was afraid that Empress Dowager Liu would really take advantage of these words and delay the return of the government.

Although Empress Dowager Liu is a woman, she is really a spittle and a nail. Although the matter of returning to power is just a coincidence, she is also very straightforward after she has said it. Even the emperor's "promotion" is just a wave of her hand. , does not promise,

On the contrary, he teased the eldest prince for a while with great interest, and when he turned his head, he saw Pang Yuzheng rushing towards Xiaojiu with a foolish smile, without asking what they had just talked about, but after meeting the eyes of Gong Jiu, who was on the other side of Xiang Xiaojiu, sidewalk:

"The officials don't think I'm an old and dark person, so let me mention one last thing to you:

What Xiang Xiaolang said before really makes sense. "

"I know the intention of the officials to send Pang Xiaolang to Chenzhou that day, and I also know why the adults in the court refused to persuade you, and I didn't take it very seriously that day——

We were all wrong indeed. "

"The official family governs the world with the scholar-officials, but the world is not only the world of my Zhao family, but also the world of the common people."

"The imperial concubine has meritorious service in giving birth to a noble concubine, but General Pang would rather use his military merits to sacrifice his younger brother to live in peace and wealth. Grand Master Pang is even more concerned about state affairs. It is no wonder that the officials want to share their worries about family affairs for him——

it's all right, no problem

——It's absolutely wrong, absolutely wrong, to use the wealth and lives of the people of Chenzhou as the price. "

Empress Dowager Liu's tone was calm, far less than Xiang Xiaojiu's agitation, but the shame that everyone had forgotten just now because of the surprise of "returning the government" came back to their hearts.

What the emperor felt most ashamed of was that Empress Dowager Liu hadn't persuaded him at all that day, but he just thought that Pang Yu was obedient, Chenzhou had its own local officials, and nothing serious happened, and it happened that Empress Dowager Liu had military affairs in the Northwest, so he gave him perfunctory over the past -

The emperor was so lucky that the military report came just in time!

Thinking about it now, I'm really ashamed.

Seeing the emperor muttering again, Grand Master Pang hurriedly apologized deeply:

"It's all old ministers who have no way to teach their children! Let the big lady tell you."

The Eight Worthy Kings, Yan Shu and the others treated Grand Master Pang normally, but now, looking at the face of the eldest prince, it is not good to call his family a punching bag for the Empress Dowager Liu at his full moon banquet. , I really feel ashamed in my heart, so I have to salute:

"It's my fault for failing to persuade the officials! Please forgive me, Madam."

Empress Dowager Liu rolled her eyelids,

Because she also knew that she was really strict with the emperor in the past, and now she was too lazy to care about these small thoughts that she would take back the words of "returning the government" in case she got an advantage,

Just said lightly:

"Who is not at fault? Fortunately, no catastrophe was caused. If the rest are not guilty, you can go back and find the officials to deal with it."

"Now I only have one last thought for the officials:

How to say that there will be no such mistakes in the future? "

Empress Dowager Liu has shaken the world for more than ten years. In addition to changing her name, she is also a person who even wears a dragon robe. Not to mention the emperor who grew up under her strict guidance, who is full of civil and military affairs, who can really not have the slightest awe of?

Because of the story of the early years, the Eighth Sage King and Di Niangniang were especially afraid of this empress.

But whether it's awe or fear, Empress Dowager Liu's knowledge is indeed beyond the reach of ordinary boudoir women.

"One is the evaluation of the appointment of officials.

The original system is too general. If Pang Xiaolang gave him another job test before he went to Chenzhou, he would be able to know the arithmetic and water conservancy that the chief disaster relief should know at least, and at least he would know what kind of assistant to match him with. no?

What's more, my court gave preferential treatment to scholar-bureaucrats, and the folk style of writing became more and more prosperous, and more and more people were admitted to the imperial examination. If there was an additional assessment before taking office, wouldn't it be better for people to give full play to their talents? "

"One more thing, I believe that the family of officials has gone through this experience, and I will never dare to reward private love with state affairs, but what about the next generation of officials? What will happen to the next generation of officials? The whole world can only rely on them to discipline themselves, and they have to think of some long-term and effective methods."

"In addition, it is true that foreign relatives and clans are not good enough to pass the imperial examinations like ordinary people, but it is too biased to ask the official family to not use it alone. Moreover, there is no reason why the people of the world should support the Zhao family to multiply from generation to generation. To add a way for them to pass the assessment and be driven by officials——

It is best to hold it regularly once a year or so, and discuss the specific regulations with the adults. "

"One more..."

Empress Dowager Liu also suddenly remembered these things, and mentioned a few points. If you want to say that she is thoughtful and well-spoken, it is far less comprehensive than when she was usually in charge of politics.

However, looking far away, someone who knows the inside story like the Eight Kings and his wife couldn't help sighing, it's a pity.

It's a pity that they are not the mother and son of Empress Dowager Liu today.

He doesn't think so now, he has always known that he was inherited from the Eighth Prince's Mansion by the first emperor and the eldest lady, now that the eldest lady can let go so readily and considerately for him, the emperor is extremely grateful.

It was this kind of gratitude that caused the emperor to be surprised when he heard about his life experience in the future, and he did not easily believe the story told by the eight kings and his wife——

It's not that even the Eight Kings and his wife don't believe it anymore, it's just that what they hear is not enough to believe it, and what they see may not be true.

Regardless of whether the story was true or not, the Empress Dowager Liu returned to power a year earlier to recuperate, and the emperor was a bit grudged, but still cared about the kindness of his upbringing. She only cares about planting flowers, raising grass, and teasing her grandson, but she is willing to ask her for advice on the difficulties in state affairs and family affairs. This sentence is just enough for the emperor to make a certain decision at certain critical moments.

And Xiang Xiaojiu happily fired a cannon at the first prince's full moon banquet, and it really made him and Gong Jiu enjoy a peaceful life for a long time.

In this way, Shuangjiu didn't have much thought to feel sorry for Pang Yu, who had memorized the laws of the Song Dynasty from a fat chicken to a sickly chicken, but she had a little concern for the eldest prince.

And now this emperor is indeed worthy of being able to obtain the posthumous title of benevolence in a dynasty that ruled the country with benevolence. The first prince's full moon banquet was disturbed by Xiang Xiaojiu's bombardment, and he dared to invite them two hundred days later.

In the end, it was Xiang Xiaojiu who never felt guilty and was a little embarrassed, just remembered the records in the history books of Gong Jiu's hometown, the emperor should have died young, and finally had to live the life of his step-nephew,

Gong Jiu gave the eldest prince a little pulse, and prepared a very suitable health regimen and fitness exercises, but it was just a random thing.

It's just that it's done casually, after all, it's also called the Great Song Dynasty. Since the first prince's safe birth, there have been many differences, so I won't repeat them one by one.
