Daming: I was exposed by Zhu Di's Sims life!

Chapter 294 Hengjing 4 Years, June

The rainbow light of the rising sun in the sky is like red golden silk, billowing and fluttering in the wind.

In the imperial palace in Beijing, with blue bricks and yellow tiles, pavilions and bridges, and three-story pavilions with cornices, Zhu Gaoxuan took a sip of tea, and smiled at Su Wu who was sitting opposite him: "How about this tea? It's the best in Shu." Mengding Ganlu, the top product just brought up from Sichuan, even I don’t have much treasure.”

Su Wu took a sip, and couldn't help admiring: "Slender and curly, the color of the tea soup is green and bright, and the pekoe floats on the soup, the fragrance of the tea is overflowing, the taste is fresh and sweet, it is indeed a rare good tea."

After he returned to Beijing after he became famous as the chief minister of Koryo Province, he was referred to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to fill the vacant position of Zuodu Yushi.Zuodu Censor, ranked second rank, is in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and is honored as the "Chief Constitution".

Su Wu is very young, and he has the humerus of the Eastern Palace. There are rumors in the capital that he will be promoted from "Su Zongxian" to "Su Xiang" in less than ten years.

The two masters and ministers hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they talked happily.

Su Wu saw a young man standing behind the crown prince. He had a handsome appearance, bright eyes and white teeth, and he looked like a gentleman, so people couldn't help but look twice.

He asked with some doubts, "Who is this?"

Zhu Gaoxuan said: "Yu Qian, the master of ceremonies arranged for me by the old man."

Su Wu said in surprise, "That's quite young."

Zuo Chunfang master of ceremonies, although he is just an attendant who follows the prince, this job is not so easy to do, and the requirements for the job are extremely high, and most of them are filled by famous scholars who specialize in academics. will be below forty.

And Yu Qian didn't even look twenty years old.

Zhu Gaoyi laughed and said, "How old are you this year? Are you twenty? You've already served as the Zuodu Censor. Has there ever been a 20-year-old Zuodu Censor in all dynasties?"

Su Wu said cheerfully: "That's true. Your Highness is right. As an official, you don't look at seniority but only ability. My Ming Dynasty is still a young dynasty. Officials should also be young people. It just shows that my Ming Dynasty is full of vigor."

"Haha, good boy, why are you becoming so glib now?"

Yu Qian sighed, with a little melancholy in his voice.

He originally thought that this famous crown prince would be as refined and knowledgeable as Prince Yiwen, but after following Zhu Gaoxuan for two days, he didn't see any real skills of this crown prince. Working as a supervisor in Hua Dian means wandering around the palace, drinking tea, drinking and chatting with some princeling officials.

This is too different from the virtuous lord he expected, which made Yu Qian feel like he hates iron for being weak.

The prince of my Ming Dynasty is such a thing?

What a disappointment!
Zhu Gaoyi glanced at it, noticed the subtle expression on Yu Qian's face, and said with a smile, "Yu Qian, do you have something to say?"

Yu Qian lowered his eyes and said, "No."

"If you have something to say, you can speak it directly. You don't have to hide it. If you keep your words in your heart, you will still feel uncomfortable in the end."

Holding the teacup, Zhu Gaoxuan said, "I allow you to speak freely without any guilt."

Yu Qian hesitated for a moment and asked, "Really?"

Zhu Gaoxuan smiled: "No one in the world knows, I, Zhu Gaoxuan, keep my promise the most, and keep my word."

"Since this is the case, the minister will dare to say a few words."

Yu Qian straightened his waist, and said solemnly, "I thought that Your Highness is the crown prince, the heir apparent, who lives in the East Palace, and his every move should demonstrate the majesty of Ming Dynasty. But after observing it these few days, His Highness's behavior can be called dissolute!" "

With such unabashed and sharp words, Yu Qian almost pointed at Zhu Gaoxuan's nose and scolded mediocrity.

Everyone in Su Wu was stunned. He wondered if this little brother surnamed Yu was going to die, dare to talk to His Highness like that?

Even he, who was far away in Koryo Province, had heard that His Royal Highness set fire to the company camp in the southwest, wiped out more than [-] rebels, and did not keep a single prisoner, which shows how cruel his methods are.

In the face of Qian Qian's aggressive accusation, Zhu Gaoyi did not see any emotion, still holding the teacup unhurriedly, using the tea lid to lightly flick the clear tea soup.

He asked calmly, "Yu Qian, aren't you afraid of death?"

"The straight minister said it bluntly, why should I be afraid?"

Yu Qian said indifferently, "Furthermore, Your Highness has already said just now that I am allowed to speak freely without guilt. Is it possible that Your Highness wants to go back on his word?"

"That's not so."

Zhu Gaoxuan was finally willing to put down the teacup, the corners of his mouth raised, "I heard that you are especially good at matching poetry?"

"Just a little bit."

Although he spoke modestly, Yu Qian's tone was quite arrogant when he spoke, which shows how confident he is in his talent in this area.

Zhu Gaoyi said with a smile: "Coincidentally, I am also good at pairing and poetry. I have nothing to do today. Let's compare?"

Yu Qian was a little surprised: "Is Your Highness serious?"

Although he had heard that the crown prince had outstanding achievements in both governing the country and leading troops, he hadn't heard that the crown prince had the ability to recite poems and fight against opponents.

Zhu Gaoxuan nodded slightly and said, "Of course I'm serious."

Yu Qian asked enthusiastically: "Then what does Your Highness want to compare?"

"Using the topic as a word, how?"

"Very good, what's the question?"

Zhu Gaoyi looked around, and finally fixed his eyes on the bamboo forest near the pavilion. The breeze was blowing, the bamboo forest was green and firm, and the branches and leaves swayed slightly.

He asked: "Let's take the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum as the topic, what do you think?"

Yu Qian thought: "Plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, proud and quiet, occupying all seasons in spring, summer, autumn and winter, are just right for me."

Zhu Gaoyi smiled and stretched out his hand to signal: "Okay, brother Yu first."

Yu Qian nodded and said: "Brother Zhu is like this, so I will not be polite."

When Su Wu heard this "Brother Zhu", he was so shocked that he knelt down to this young man surnamed Yu on the spot.

You are so brave!
When Yu Qian accused Zhu Gaoxuan just now, Su Wu still felt that the kid surnamed Yu was a stupid and sour rotten scholar.But now this sentence "Brother Zhu" completely changed his concept of Qian.

Just this "Brother Zhu" is enough to kill Yu Qian's family in Caishikou for seven days!

This brother is simply audacious and can do whatever he wants!

Hearing this "Brother Zhu", Zhu Gaoxuan's face didn't change much, there was still a slight smile, calm and calm.

Yu Qian didn't think so much, he thought hard for a long time, and pondered:
"Staining the clothes with a few drops of rain and the remaining rain, I can see the mountains beyond the ten thousand mountains.

Immediately look at the autumn scenery on the plain, and only pity the cold chrysanthemum to reflect the decline. "

Good poetry, really good poetry.

Yu Qian is indeed very talented in reciting poems and composing, and he blurted out a poem with gorgeous rhetoric.

It's a pity that Zhu Gaoxuan still has the ultimate move in his hand.

Yu Qian raised his hand to signal: "I've given up, Your Highness, please."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and said with a smile, "If Your Highness can't do it, just admit defeat, it's not shameful."

Zhu Gaoxuan smiled, pretending to think for a moment, before slowly opening his mouth:
"Stay firm on the green hills and don't let go, the roots are originally in the broken rocks.

Thousands of hard hits are still strong, Ren Er is wind from east to west! "

The smile on Yu Qian's face froze, he couldn't turn his head for a moment, he pondered for a long time, and murmured: "Ren'er, east, west, north and south wind, good, good, good, Ren Er's east, west, north and south wind..."

What he has always advocated is the integrity of a gentleman, and this poem undoubtedly fully demonstrates the integrity, with a heroic and upright spirit.

As soon as this poem comes out, the outcome is clear.

Su Wu on the side couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding: "What a poem, what a boldness, Your Highness is a genius!"

Zhu Gaoyi just smiled and didn't speak.

I don't know whether the Mr. Zheng Banqiao hundreds of years later will sigh with emotion, "If the Lord gave birth, how can he give birth to Zheng", living in the shadow of Zhu Gaoxuan.

Charlotte can copy Jay Chou's songs, and I, Zhu Gaoxuan, can copy Zheng Banqiao's poems, which is very reasonable.

As soon as Yu Qian changed his normal routine, he couldn't help being respectful, and cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, it was the minister who lost. If you want to kill him or cut him to pieces, Your Highness will make his own decision, and the minister has nothing to say."

"Why should I kill you? It's been agreed in advance. You and I are just reciting poems and composing to play with each other. We didn't make any bets beforehand."

Zhu Gaoxuan waved his hand and said, "However, I have a great interest in poetry today, and I can't express my feelings in one poem, but I'm still brewing one."

Yu Qian's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed: "Please also recite one or two, Your Highness, so that I can open my eyes."

This song "Ren Er East, West, North, South Wind" completely convinced him.

Now hearing that the prince still has a poem, he is very happy to like to recite poems, and wants to hear what other masterpieces Zhu Gaoxuan can have.

Su Wu said with a smile: "Your Highness, please don't be stingy, show your talent and let me see it."

"Since this is the case, then today I will be arty."

Zhu Gaoxuan said, "This second song is also Chanting Bamboo."

Yu Qian nodded quickly: "Okay, chant the bamboo, sieve the wind and enjoy the moon, live a chic life, elegant and indifferent, for a modest gentleman."

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxuan stopped showing off, thought for a while, and said:

"Bamboo is like a hypocrite, but it is firm on the outside but empty in the center. It can block out the sun in groups, and it can't hold back the wind when it is independent.

The roots are thin and good at drilling acupuncture points, and the waist is soft and bowed.The literati love it so much, it has the same breath. "

The smile on Yu Qian's face gradually faded, but Su Wu couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Insulting Sven!"

Yu Qian flicked his sleeves and said angrily.

Compared with the praise song just now, this song is too pungent and biting.

Bamboo is like those hypocrites. From the outside, they are so prestigious and successful, but in fact they have no real materials.

When they are in high spirits, they can obscure the truth, but they cannot stand the test when viewed alone.

The roots of the bamboo are fine and fine, and they are good at stabbing down, and the waist is soft, and they are used to bowing to others.Those literati who like bamboo may have the same integrity as those bamboos.

People usually like to sing bamboo to show their integrity, but this song mocking bamboo undoubtedly tore up the treacherous faces of literati.

Yu Qian was angry because he admired the integrity of a literati most.

And Su Wu laughed because he looked down on literati the most.

He was a juren in the ninth year of Yongle, a very young juren, if nothing happened, he could easily go one step further to become a Jinshi and enter the court as an official.

However, Su Wu did not continue to take the imperial examination, but expressed his heartfelt opinion that "examination is like an orange, sour and hard".

In his eyes, when the book of sages and sages is read to the end, what is read is not a saint, but a rotten scholar whose thinking has been imprisoned.

Yu Qian gritted his teeth angrily, wanted to say something but couldn't say it, so he turned around and left in a huff.

Zhu Gaoxuan and Su Wu looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing.

……

After laughing for a long time, Su Wu just picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked, "Your Highness, is it too bad to tease such a kid?"

Zhu Gaoyi didn't answer the question, but asked instead: "What do you think of this kid surnamed Yu?"

Su Wu shook his head and said: "It's not a sour rotten scholar, but he has aura, but he is too ignorant of current affairs and too arrogant. With this temperament, he has narrowed his path."

Zhu Gaoxuan waved his hand: "How can you judge people only by their character? If he has no real ability, he dares to be so crazy in front of me. Do you think I can let him go? Do you really think I am a kind-hearted living Bodhisattva?"

Su Wu sighed: "This is a strong horse, it's not easy to control, if I use him instead, I must press him for three to five years to sharpen the edges and corners of his hostility, and when it's almost done, then Take it out to see the effect, use it if you can use it, and discard it if you don’t use it.”

"In the beginning, I thought the same as you. To deal with such a fierce horse, you must first suppress his hostility, and then slowly tame him. But after seeing him, I don't think so."

"Then what is your Highness thinking now?"

Zhu Gaoxuan hooked his fingers, and seeing Su Wu brought his face closer, he said mysteriously in the other's ear:
"Don't tell you."

Su Wu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing bitterly.

Although the prince didn't say anything, he already had a premonition.

Yu Qian, who was targeted by Zhu Gaoxuan, is now more like a sheep bitten by a wolf.

……

On the way back, Yu Qian became more and more angry as he thought about it.

"It's an insult to the gentleman, it's an insult to the gentleman, how did he make this kind of poem!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It seems that what I said is not unreasonable. Bamboo is like a hypocrite, but the outer wall is empty. Groups can block out the sun, independent and unstoppable. The more I think about it, the more I think it fits the reality... Cough cough, how can I think so? , the prince misunderstood me."

Quietly, even Yu Qian himself didn't realize that his thoughts solidified by Confucian culture in the past 18 years had changed invisibly because of Zhu Gaoxuan's mockery.

[Choose to simulate a random segment about Zhu Gaoxuan...]

[The current perspective is: Zhu Gaoxuan's status as emperor]

[Time: 40 years of Hengjing, June. 】

When Zhu Di saw this time period, a big question mark appeared in his head.

He knew that Zhu Gaoxuan could live very well, but isn't it a bit too much to reign for 40 years?
Among the emperors simulated by Zhu Di, there are only two people who can compare with Zhu Gaoxuan's reign.One is Emperor Wanli Emperor Ming Shenzong Zhu Yijun, who reigned for 48 years, and the other is Jiajing Emperor Ming Shizong Zhu Houcong, who reigned for 45 years.

But when it comes to the reigning emperor who is actually in power, there is only Emperor Jiajing.In the first ten years of Emperor Wanli's reign, because the emperor was young, the queen mother was in charge of the government, and the queen mother handed over the general and political power to Zhang Juzheng for management.

But these two emperors have been in power for a long time, so it is not a good thing for Daming.

Jiajing reigned for 45 years, and the Ming Dynasty almost didn't play with it, and Emperor Wanli's reign for 48 years directly dragged the Ming Dynasty into the coffin, leaving a devastated future generations of children and grandchildren. empire.

Except for Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, among Ming emperors, very few of them could live past 40 years old.
