After Wang Shizhen made some strange remarks, the scene was silent for a while.
Zhu Yijun walked in front and fell into silence, not knowing what to say.
If someone else said this, he would immediately invite someone to go rafting.
As soon as you utter such threatening words, if you don’t fall into the lake, who will?
The problem is, what Wang Shizhen said... made Zhu Yijun confused.
It is really possible for Alliance Leader Wang to believe such a thing!
Today, it is no longer the time when Wang Shizhen was young.
When Wang Shizhen first entered his official career, he was arrogant, indifferent to talents and had frequent political activities.
Among the people, Wang Shizhen used his influence in the literary world to form an illegal association with Li Panlong.
The Poetry Society and Literary League with the "Six Sons" as the core was established.
The Literary League had an orderly hierarchy, strict hierarchy, and rankings. Wang Shizhen also ordered a painting of "Six Sons", in which the six sons were seated among the bamboo groves.
Anyone who disobeys the orders of Wang Shizhen and Li Panlong will have their ranking within the society lowered, or even be expelled from the society.
Xie Zhen, one of the six sons, was old and had a good character. He repeatedly disobeyed Wang Shizhen. Once, after he refused to "write the "Five Sons Poems"", Wang Shizhen immediately held a meeting and had his name removed.
Even if some people say that Wuzi is not good, Wang Shizhen is determined not to change.
Later, Wu Guolun, one of the five sons, was demoted in the society by Wang Shizhen because of the "A Dang Bojun" incident.
"Six Sons Picture" is also the same as that painting. It has been revised and revised, and it has several versions.
At the same time, Wang Shizhen successively wrote "Later Five Sons", "Guang Five Sons", and "Continued Five Sons", further expanding the scale of the Literary League's group.
As the saying goes, "The talent is the highest, the position is the most obvious, the voice is brilliant and the spirit is all over the sea. At that time, scholar-bureaucrats, mountain people, poets, Niezi, and Yuliu all rushed to his door."
On the other hand, Wang Shizhen was a man of literary power and used his influence in the political arena.
Wang Shizhen believed that "there is nothing but history between heaven and earth" and determined to write a history of the Ming Dynasty - the Literary Circle was the main compilation of history. Even if it was an unofficial history, its influence should not be underestimated.
In addition to serious things such as the history of calligraphy, imperial examinations, and posthumous titles, the personal histories of ministers are naturally indispensable.
Unofficial histories are all subjective, and Wang Shizhen’s history includes a lot of private information.
After he took up the pen, if he had any slight dissatisfaction in the officialdom, he would immediately write a short composition.
Fellow members and allies, who knows?
For example, the later book "The Biography of the First Assistant Since Jiajing" exposed Yan Song at first and smeared Zhang Juzheng at the bottom - the outrageous rumor that Zhang Juzheng carried the sedan chair at thirty-two years later came from Wang Shizhen's book.
At that time, defeating Yan Song was popular, and Wang Shizhen started writing small essays without saying a word.
He repeatedly wrote articles either directly insulting or indirectly insulting Yan Song, Yan Shifan and his son.
His famous works include "A Little Official's Journey to the Lujiang River in Yuanjiang River", and secretly there are also the popular "Jin Ping Mei" and "Ming Feng Ji".
Yan Song was so angry that his mouth was filled with smoke.
But how can one get angry over elegant matters among literati?
In desperation, Yan Song was beaten with a smile on his face, saying that the criticism was right, but I would encourage him if he didn't.
This act of defying power made Wang Shizhen famous, and the young people regarded him as their idol.
The wise men in the world gathered together to conquer, and it can be said that they are like the sun.
It's a pity that Yan Song, an old fox, has many tricks up his sleeve.
Similar to Zhang Siwei's situation now, Yan Song clearly didn't know what to do with the leader of the literary world, so he was tricked to death by his father in a blink of an eye. He spoke to Shizong and ordered his execution.
There's nothing to say about that. If your father dies, you will naturally have to worry about becoming an official.
Wang Shizhen "wailed for several days and returned home from time to time as an official."
This defeat, even the death of his father, immediately made him feel depressed.
After Ding You finished, he went around groveling down, begging for help, and devoted himself to redressing his father's case.
He kept writing letters to Xu Jie, Yang Bo and other ministers.
Later, when the late emperor ascended the throne, Zhang Juzheng, who was in the same department, was rising. Wang Shizhen "traveled to Dezhou and heard that Zhang Juzheng had entered the cabinet."
Seeing the opportunity for universal amnesty, Wang Shizhen wrote to Zhang Juzheng to establish relations.
A letter titled "Going to Jiangling, Xianggong Zhang" begins with "Unworthy of one's integrity and provoking serious evil, causing great disaster to the ancestors." It can be described as sincere and sincere, with a very low profile.
Later, Mu Zongguo rehabilitated his father.
No matter what Wang Shizhen thinks in her heart, she must express a thousand thanks on her face.
At the same time, other schools in the literary world also began to compete.
The prime minister favors the leader, and the leader makes an alliance.
Wang Daokun gathered people from all over Huizhou and founded Fengqian and Baiyu societies successively, hoping to "dominate one area and build a banner".
At this time, Wang Shizhen, who had once been solely in charge of literary affairs and rejected outsiders, not only did not intervene, but even openly catered to Wang Daokun's intrusion.
He wrote a letter to congratulate him and said, "She has no poems, but if she did, it was Wang Sima Boyu who began."
It can be seen that the edges and corners have been smoothed out over time.
I no longer had the pursuit of an official career, and I also gave up writing and writing, so I had no choice but to "become a Buddhist late in life, and change my interest to Huang Guan".
No matter what official career or literature, my father was killed by me, so I should just worship Buddha and practice Taoism.
Chant sutras, practice Taoism, and meditate every day.
Reflect on the wrong things you have done, and strive to speak less and be kind to others.
The writing is also filled with a state of repentance, and he is called the leader of the "confessional stream" by scholars.
Now that the leader of the Confession Stream has begun to repent for Emperor Sejong, he may not have felt the same way - if Sejong had practiced Taoism, his son would not have died, and if I had practiced Taoism, my father would not have died.
We have sympathy for each other.
The more Zhu Yijun thought about it, the more uncertain he became. Was this person threatening him on behalf of someone else, or was he simply trying to sell Taoism?
After all, this leader of the literary world will become a disciple of Wang Xijue's daughter Tan Yangzi in her twenties in a few years.
He not only wrote articles to praise him, but also helped Tan Yangzi ascend in the daytime, and invited 100,000 people to watch the ceremony.
Wang Shizhen cried and worshiped at that time, lying on the ground to absorb the remaining "spiritual energy" of Tan Yangzi.
Well, Zhu Yijun suddenly thought of it.
When Wang Shizhen came to Xiyuan, her eyes were shining and her breathing was rhythmic. Don't you want to absorb the aura of Emperor Sejong?
Zhu Yijun glanced at Wang Shizhen suspiciously and continued to test: "Then how did Wang Qing conclude that Shimiao has attained enlightenment and ascended?"
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Wang Shizhen immediately became excited.
He showed a hint of excitement: "Your Majesty is the proof!"
"I heard that once His Majesty ascended to the throne, it was like a gift from heaven, and his divinity flourished overnight."
"The ritual of Hongjian was suddenly born, and the study of classics was mastered."
"When you enter the Xiyuan, you will stay at the Wanshou Palace and the Shimiao Dojo."
"Your Majesty is dyed with Taoist fruits, his mind is in tune with the Taoism, he is impressed by his honor, his clan is tied around his neck, and all the senior ministers of Shizong are hugging each other, bowing their hands and bowing in obeisance."
"If it were not for attaining enlightenment in the world temple and ascending to the thirty-third heaven, where would this be?"
Zhu Yijun was speechless.
In a sense, I really have to ask my ancestors to find the reason for my situation.
Coupled with the show he put on a few days ago, Leader Wang was able to suppress him.
Wang Shizhen originally believed in Taoism, but now when she encounters things outside her cognitive boundaries, she always has to have an explanation to convince herself.
It’s similar to those rich people in previous lives who prayed to gods and worshiped Buddha.
This is boring. I thought that Alliance Leader Wang was so strong-headed that he wanted to intimidate him.
"Half god, half saint, half immortal, all Confucianism, all Taoism, all sages." Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said casually.
A perfunctory sentence ended Wang Shizhen's wild thoughts.
Turning to business, he said calmly: "I heard that the ministers who announced the decree came back and said that Wang Qing seems to have lost interest in officialdom?"
These words have the connotation of asking for guilt, which is somewhat rude.
There is a reason for asking such a direct question - Wang Shizhen is really not honest in what she does.
As soon as he received the imperial edict of Fuqi, he wrote a poem there saying, "I am addicted to gardening, and my love for children has declined."
He also wrote a letter to someone, "I have no choice but to go on this trip. I have no choice but to talk about the hardships on the road and have nothing to say to my ears."
Just forget it if you like a noble persona. What does it mean to be constantly urged by those in power and you have no reason to refuse?
If it is published, who will it be shown to?
Zhu Yijun asked this question at this time. Although it was not polite, it was an opportunity for Wang Shizhen to explain.
If at this point, you don't even have a basic attitude...
Don't talk about becoming an official, let's go to the grave.
The worst case scenario is to give Wang Daokun some support and replace him with a leader of the Literary and Art League to work for him.
Wang Shizhen quickly apologized: "I am guilty!"
"I don't know your majesty's wisdom, so I guessed that Yuan Fu was calling you because of personal feelings, so I made excuses to refuse!"
"Only then can I say the words 'It's hard to talk about it without caring about it'."
This is put euphemistically, but it actually means that the emperor has not yet taken charge of the government, and Zhang Juzheng has driven away Gao Gong.
I thought it was Zhang Juzheng who was in charge of the power and summoned him back to Beijing in order to expand his wings.
He, Wang Shizhen, was unwilling to form cliques based on personal feelings and damage His Majesty's majesty, so he deliberately shied away.
Anyway, the intention is good.
Seeing him like this, Zhu Yijun was also filled with emotion.
It can only be said that after Wang Shizhen rehabilitated her father, she became a lot more diplomatic, and at least her stance on speaking was stable.
I can probably believe this 60% of the time.
Historically, Wang Shizhen and Zhang Juzheng had a falling out because he was a scholar, respected etiquette, and believed that Zhang Juzheng was too powerful and was bullying his superiors, so they turned against each other.
It is not known whether some of them maintain the character of Yan Song who is not afraid of power and are mixed with elements of political showmanship.
However, if he has this attitude, it is easy to say that he is not a political idiot, so that he can feel at ease and let him do things.
Moreover, at least he paid attention to the emperor and was not too arrogant.
Zhu Yijun stretched out his hand to help him up and said with a straight face: "Yuan Fu is my humerus and heart. How can Wang Qing listen to rumors!?"
To put it this way, I agree with Wang Shizhen’s rhetoric and his smoothness.
Wang Shizhen once again confessed: "I lacked virtue and actually listened to rumors and slandered Yuan Fu. I am extremely ashamed."
Zhu Yijun continued to rebuke: "I heard that Wang Qing is determined to write history, why don't you listen to textual research and seek truth?"
"Wang Qing is so frivolous and gullible, how can I trust you to lead Lantai?"
Wang Shizhen subconsciously wanted to cooperate with the emperor's performance and continue to admit his mistakes.
As soon as the words came to his mouth, he was suddenly stunned.
Lantai!?
The emperor asked him to lead Lantai!?
Since the Han Dynasty, when archives and classics were set up, Lantai was established as a place to order history, and history books were compiled during it. For thousands of years, Lantai has become the name of the official office of historians.
It turns out that the emperor asked him to return to Beijing to write history!
No wonder I saw people from Zhongshushe recording daily notes beside the emperor the day before yesterday!
This... sudden surprise made Wang Shizhen a little confused.
The recognition of the emperor in my heart increased several notches.
Holy King!
Wang Shizhen was suddenly filled with surprise, excitement, hesitation, and excitement, and her tongue was tied.
Zhu Yijun did not rush and waited leisurely for Wang Shizhen's reply.
Wang Shizhen's reaction was naturally what he expected.
This is a position tailor-made for Wang Shizhen.
This guy had no ability to govern the place. Historically, in the third year of Wanli, Zhang Juzheng made him the governor of Yunyang, and he was impeached several times a year.
It is either "being outspoken and losing power, and then being criticized again", or it is "disturbing the people and disrupting production."
It can be seen that this kind of meat trumpet has to be kept in the palace and can be used to criticize current affairs.
Besides, Wang Shizhen will definitely be very satisfied with this.
He was originally "ambitious in Lantai".
Historically, when Wang Shizhen was resurrected, Zhang Juzheng promoted him to the position of envoy to Huguang, which was the position of Du Sina who was being escorted to Beijing.
Wang Shizhen was dissatisfied with this position. Not only did she not take up the post, she also went to Shu to resign.
Zhang Juzheng wrote a letter to persuade: "The country below is so desolate, how lucky is it to hear the voice of Yunhe and see the treasures of Huanwei?"
For such a remote and simple place, how lucky it is to be able to hear such a beautiful voice like yours and see such a treasure like yours.
Just like coaxing a child, Wang Shizhen reluctantly left.
After that, I wrote again and again, saying that Mr. Zhang, I really can’t do it anymore, please let me return to Beijing to take up a post. I want to do clerical work.
Now that Zhu Yijun has opened his eyes, he can help him turn his interest into work in one step. What else can he say?
Sure enough, Wang Shizhen hesitated for a moment.
Finally, he kowtowed slowly and bowed to the end: "I heard His Majesty's teachings on etiquette, music, and instructions. I felt like I was inheriting my father's love. I will keep it in my heart."
"I receive the grace of His Majesty the Holy Land, and the benevolence and kindness are just like the rain that comes after a long drought, which moistens the inner world!"
This time of worship, I finally brought my sincerity to it.
Zhu Yijun was listening calmly, but after hearing these words inadvertently, he almost staggered.
He glanced at Wang Shizhen, who was nearly fifty years old, and didn't know how he came out with the words "I feel grateful for my father's love".
I can only say that he is worthy of being a leader in the literary world, and his speaking skills are impeccable.
But it's not over yet.
How could Wang Shizhen be convinced by just being a historian?
Zhu Yijun helped Wang Shizhen up again: "Since we are talking about father and son..."
"Wang Qing, I left you in Lantai because I not only love your talent and learning, but also because of my father's merits."
Wang Shizhen stood up and bent over, and was startled when he heard this.
Unable to grasp the emperor's connection, he cautiously said: "My father...?"
Zhu Yijun sighed.
He said meaningfully: "Recently, there has been some disputes in the DPRK."
"Yesterday, Ge Shouli, the imperial censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, presented the ceremony."
"say……"
"The former censor of Ji Liao City, Wang Yan, defeated the captives and quelled the Japanese, and his achievements were commendable. He accidentally broke in with the captives, violated the power and treachery, and actually committed suicide. It is not his crime."
"The former governor of Zhejiang, Zhu Wanqing, was an upright man. However, because he strictly prohibited intercourse, he fell into the trap of a matchmaker. He continued to patrol and supervise the troops due to illness, but he was slandered and pursued. On the day of drinking poison, the family has no place to stay. So far, his wife has sent food to him.
For people, it cannot exist by itself."
"If you don't break the rules and show your kindness, it's not to encourage loyalty and encourage you to do your job. Please sacrifice the two altars for Nie He as usual and build a tomb for burial; Wan He can sacrifice one altar as usual and bury half of it."
"Afterwards, I looked through the resumes of the two ministers. The loyalty of the country made me shed tears!"
"Since Wang Qing is a loyal and good man, how can I not be more tolerant to you?"
This memorial was naturally given to Ge Shouli by Zhu Yijun.
Wang Yan had outstanding achievements, but he was forced to commit suicide because of his occasional defeat when the enemy suddenly invaded, and because he unfortunately affected the interests of powerful ministers. This was not his fault.
Therefore, it is not enough to rehabilitate him, he must also be buried and sacrificed. Of course, Zhu Wan also brought him along to borrow Wang Shizhen's east wind.
This was naturally not a difficult problem for the emperor.
But for Wang Shizhen, it was as difficult as climbing to heaven.
Historically, it was in the fifteenth year of Wanli that he achieved this step after many setbacks.
However, the background is different. This was a gift from someone to Wang Shizhen, who "feared no power and exposed Zhang Juzheng's face" after the court liquidated Zhang Juzheng.
Now that the emperor has spoken these words himself, the legitimacy of bringing order to order is unparalleled.
Wang Shizhen was immediately stunned.
His father, Wang Yan, was originally abandoned by Emperor Sejong.
In the first year of Longqing, he took advantage of the opportunity of the general amnesty to rehabilitate his father.
However, it is only to be exempted from the crime, and the punishment of abandoning the market will only last for a day without a burial place.
It is extremely difficult to achieve the step of "building a grave for burial".
The emperor actually fed it to his mouth like this!?
Wang Shizhen was stunned and silent.
After a long while, he regained his senses and sighed: "Your Majesty, I have not accomplished even a single feat, but yet I am so favored by Your Majesty. I am really frightened."
"Please ask your Majesty to send you."
There is no such thing as a free lunch.
When he rehabilitated his father, what he sacrificed was his integrity, and what he paid for was his reputation in the literary world.
Now the emperor has rebuilt the Orchid Terrace for him, and also offered the bargaining chip of "building a tomb and burying him" in his father's stead.
What step does he need to take?
Zhu Yijun glanced at Wang Shizhen appreciatively.
He is talented, generous, sensitive, and smart when doing things, and he can rest assured.
Even if Wang Shizhen is in her fifties, she still deserves to be said to be "talented in elegance, with a gentle and delicate air that overflows from her brows."
When he was waiting for the emperor to speak, he was also radiant. It is no wonder that Xu Zhongxing was praised by his ministers as "a godly man, but he is not a woman".
Zhu Yijun waved his hand.
Zhang Hong was already prepared and bent forward with a jar in his hand.
Wang Shizhen looked curious.
Zhu Yijun was not in a hurry to get to the point. Anyway, he asked leisurely: "Does Wang Qing know that 'rotten grass is a firefly'?"
Wang Shizhen was baffled.
I don't know the emperor's intention, so I can only say in a straight-line manner: "The Book of Rites: The Moon Order says that the moon of the summer season... the rotten grass is the firefly."
"It means that every summer, rotten grass and rotten bamboo roots will turn into fireflies."
Book of Rites, Classic of Confucius and Sheng, one of the Three Rites of Confucianism and one of the Five Classics.
It can be said to be an unshakable foundation for all eternity.
Even if the world is wrong, it cannot be that the Confucian classics are wrong. At most, they need to be reinterpreted to suit the times.
Of course, there is no dispute over this article on the Moon Order.
After all, it is just the habits of some birds and animals such as fish on the ice, otters offering sacrifices to fish, swan geese coming, and so on.
The same goes for the saying "Corn grass becomes firefly".
Zhu Yijun nodded, seemingly satisfied with Leader Wang's knowledge.
He took the jar from Zhang Hong's hand and said lightly: "Wang Qing said, can a saint's words make mistakes?"
Wang Shizhen was shocked and suddenly lost her composure!
He suddenly had an extremely bad premonition!
The feeling of impending disaster comes over my heart!
What on earth is the emperor going to assign to him!?
Wang Shizhen opened her mouth several times to speak, but found that she was too frightened to speak.
After calming down a little, Wang Shizhen said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please give me a clear explanation."
Zhu Yijun nodded and handed the jar in his hand to Wang Shizhen.
Wang Shizhen followed the emperor's gaze and looked at the jar. She saw some light yellow spots in the jar, but she didn't know what they were.
As he was watching attentively, the emperor's words suddenly came to his ears.
"Wang Qing, these are the eggs of fireflies, obtained from the mating of adult insects."
This sound was like a stormy sea.
Wang Shizhen's hand softened and the bottle fell out of his hand.
Luo Sigong on the side had quick eyes and quick hands and caught him immediately.
Zhu Yijun didn't take it seriously. He looked at Wang Shizhen with a gentle expression and said, "Wang Qing, can you write an article about this?"
Chapter completed!
