Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1153
Chapter 1153 Prophecy and Eating
Miao, the son of wood.
And Muzi, is a Li character.
Such a simple and easy-to-understand so-called “prophecy”, not to mention the civil servants in the court, even the children who are still studying in the private school, can quickly guess it, but the scholar’s favorite is to play with their pants and fart, pretending to be a ghost. , let the people at the bottom feel that the destiny is mysterious and mysterious.
Therefore, this so-called “Destiny is in the Miao” seal script immediately caused an uproar in the courtroom.
Almost all the civil servants looked at the Servant in the Seventh-Rank Hall of the Censor Terrace with contempt. Of course, in addition to their contemptuous gazes, there were also some people who had different views on this Zhou Youyi.
Some people think that he is bold and admire him for daring to bet decisively at such a time. Some people think that this person has read the book of sages in vain and has no sense of shame.
But after this “auspicious auspiciousness” was presented, most people’s eyes were no longer on Zhou Youyi, but on the emperor on the throne and the Governor Li in the Marquis of Jing’an Mansion.
Zhou Youyi held this auspicious auspiciousness in both hands, knelt on the ground respectfully, and kowtowed to the Emperor Yankang on the throne: “Your Majesty changed Yuan Yuji, heaven descended to offer auspiciousness, I present this auspicious auspiciousness, congratulations to Your Majesty!”
Hearing this sentence, even the young emperor Yankang couldn’t help but feel angry, he gave Zhou Youyi a cold look, and muttered: “Since it’s auspicious, Zhou Qing might as well explain it to me. The four seal characters of , what exactly do you mean?”
Zhou Youyi knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said, “This minister has little knowledge, so I didn’t dare to speculate on God’s will, but since His Majesty has a life, I dare to explain it.”
He took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, “Miao, a new born, the old emperor lost his morals, fainted and incompetent, His Majesty replaced the old one with a new one, and he is the descendant of my emperor Jingjing Miao…”
“The so-called destiny lies in Miao, the meaning is self-evident.”
Emperor Yankang’s face was cold: “Zhou Qing is very eloquent, so eloquent to stay in the censor’s desk to be a censor is wronged Zhou Qing, if there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Rites, Zhou Qing might as well go to the Ministry of Rites to be the chief clerk and send envoy to Fanbang for me. , to educate foreign nations.”
The meaning of this sentence is to throw Zhou Youyi into the Ministry of Rites to become a diplomat. The diplomats of this era are the hard work among the hard work. It takes a few years or even ten years to go out, and they may even die outside. .
Zhou Youyi knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor: “My minister, I am willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty, and I will not give up.”
Even if he annoyed the emperor, Zhou Youyi didn’t panic at all, because he knew very well that in the current Dajin court, the emperor’s words… don’t count.
Sure enough, just after he finished speaking, Shang Shu, who was standing first on the left, shot Zhao Jia with his right servant, took a slight step forward, bowed his hands to the emperor, and said with a smile, “Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites probably has no shortage of people. , that is, the Yushitai was still talking to the Shangshutai a few days ago, this Zhou Yushi is still staying at the Yushitai.”
He chuckled.
“Besides, the auspiciousness of the sky can’t be said to be a bad thing no matter what. Zhou Yushi dedicated his family’s auspiciousness to His Majesty out of a heart of loyalty and filial piety.”
Emperor Yankang on the throne, closed his eyes and said nothing.
In the past, the sixth prince was just a young man who cherished his life. Under the circumstance that his life was in the hands of people, no matter what Li Xin or the Southwest Army said, he had no opinion, but now he has been the emperor for almost half a year, and he is also in his heart. It is very clear that the life and death of the Ji family is determined by his generation, and the current emperor of Yankang, Ji Ying, is far less afraid of death than half a year ago.
As a result, the meeting ended in an extremely embarrassing atmosphere.
This “speculative” Zhou Yushi, although he presented a very ominous “auspicious”, he was neither rewarded nor punished.
After the dynasty dispersed, Zhao Jia did not dare to neglect, and while ordering someone to secretly protect Zhou Youyi, he rushed to Jing’an Houfu in person.
This Zaifu of the Shangshutai didn’t even change his court clothes, so he went to Jing’an Hou’s mansion to ask to see Li Xin, and was soon invited to the study of Jing’an Hou’s mansion. When he was about to speak, he heard the voice of Li Dadu, who was half-smiling.
“That piece of white ganoderma lucidum was bought by Zhou Youyi in Xishi Street half a month ago. The characters on the ganoderma lucidum were carved by a master in his Xun Liushufang. It took more than ten days to slowly carve it up.”
Li Xin put down the scroll in his hand and looked at Zhao Jia with a half smile.
“This matter, this Zhou Yushi was very rough. Not only did he have no idea to cover it up after the incident, but it seemed like he deliberately revealed it to others. Anbu only checked it for an hour, and then put the news on my desk. .”
Zhao Jia looked up at Li Xin and smiled bitterly: “Ming Gong knows very well that this matter has nothing to do with the so-called auspiciousness. The question now is how to deal with this Zhou Youyi.”
Zhao Jia lowered his head slightly and said, “There are only three situations now, the first is that Duke Ming killed this Zhou Youyi as a warning to all the officials in the court. In this way, it will be difficult to have another Zhou Youyi in the future. Entertainment, but this way… there are certain people in the capital who will have opinions in their hearts.”
“Needless to say so obscure.”
Governor Li smiled and said, “To put it bluntly, people from the former Southwest Army will have opinions.”
Zhao Jia nodded and continued: “The second way is to not deal with Zhou Youyi, or just fine Zhou Youyi lightly, if Duke Ming does this, things will remain the status quo for the time being, but in this way, the next few months Inside, the imperial court may pour out a dozen or even dozens of auspiciousness, and these people will become more and more daring to test your ideas.”
Li Xin sat on the chair and asked lightly, “What about the third situation?”
“The third type is the court promotion of Zhou Yuyi…”
Having said this, Zhao Jia let out a sigh of relief and said solemnly: “If the court promotes Zhou Youyi, the next person who appears in the court will not be the so-called auspicious, but… persuaded to enter the table.”
Li Xin clapped his hands, got up and looked Zhao Jia up and down, and said with a smile, “Zhou Youyi used this auspicious auspiciousness to test our thoughts. How do I know that he was not assigned by Brother You An to test my thoughts?”
Zhao Jia’s face was calm: “My subordinates have never done anything to hide Duke Ming in private. There are countless talented people under Duke Ming, so you can check them out.”
The smile on Li Xin’s face subsided a little.
He lowered his head and thought for a long time, then said, “Not now.”
“Ye Mao has already led his troops north, and maybe he will fight with the Xianbei people at some point. In this case, the court must maintain stability and give Ye Mao a stable enough rear.”
“Ye Mao will start in the second half of the year.”
Li Xin raised his head and glanced at Zhao Jia, and slowly exhaled: “Out of caution, after the fight over there, there can be big moves in the capital.”
Zhao Jia bowed his head respectfully to Li Xin: “Naturally do it according to Duke Ming’s wishes, dare to ask Duke Ming, how should Zhou Yuyi be dealt with?”
“If you don’t raise or lower, you’ll be fined half a year.”
Zhao Jia got up, bowed to Li Xin and said, “Subordinates obey.”
…
So, the imperial censor, who publicly offered his “auspicious auspiciousness” in the court hall, was invited by the prime minister Zhao Jia into the prime minister’s residence after the court, and had a simple meal.
Then he was fined half a year for “misconduct”.
