Since it is a pragmatic visit to the throne, it means that the overall situation of selecting the crown prince's companion today has been decided.
Although Gao Pragmatic looked calm, his heart actually jumped a few times. However, it is not surprising that he would be so excited. After all, this incident was the first official action he had made to change the Ming Dynasty.
I dare not say that the action is of great significance, but a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and now it is finally off to a good start.
Gao Jingshi tidied up his appearance a little, and the surrounding disciples had different expressions. Ge Xi, Ma Zhen, Lu Xingzhou and others who had just had a good chat with Gao Jingshi came forward to congratulate him one after another, and they didn't look too embarrassed.
What a different meaning. Although Li Sicheng and Shen Yongmao looked a little regretful, they still smiled and congratulated him.
Zhang Jianxiu looked a little tangled, and congratulated Gao Pragmatic with a grimace, and then said: "Brother Gao, I think it's a good time for you to go back this time. I'm really envious of you... Oh!"
Gao Pingshi smiled and said: "Now His Majesty is just summoning me to see you, and I haven't even confirmed that I have been selected yet. Maybe I said something wrong in the article, and I might even call him to be punished."
"That's not possible." Zhang Jianxiu is pretty good-looking. After all, Zhang Juzheng's family is not ugly even though he has a sad face. He said and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty has called, Brother Gao, please go first."
Gao pragmatic returned the gift and was about to leave, but saw Zhao Zuyin hesitate for a moment, as if he was debating whether to come over to congratulate him, and finally gritted his teeth and turned his head without saying a word.
Gao Jingjing was not annoyed, after all, he really didn't take Zhao Zuyin seriously, and there was no need to argue with him at this moment, so he lost his dignity. On the contrary, when Ge Xi saw Zhao Zuyin's demeanor, he snorted coldly, as if he was
He said to himself in a normal way: "Avoid Yin Xing."
The words were neither too loud nor too small, and Zhao Zuyin happened to be able to hear them. He became angry at that time and said loudly: "Young child of the Ge family, are you bullying me into not reading "Historical Records"?"
It turns out that what Ge Xi said about "avoiding Yin Xing" comes from "Historical Records: A Family of Wife Relatives", which tells that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty favored both Mrs. Yin and Mrs. Xing at the same time, and ordered them not to meet each other. Mrs. Yin asked Emperor Wu to see Mrs. Xing.
After meeting each other, Mrs. Yin "bowed her head and cried, feeling sorry for herself". Later, this idiom was used to describe avoiding meeting due to jealousy.
Ge Xi saw that he was embarrassed, but was not afraid. He just turned his head and didn't bother to pay attention. Zhao Zuyin was furious and angry, looking at him, he was afraid that he would rush up and beat him immediately.
Meng Chong saw that it was nothing, so he acted like the chief of etiquette and said sternly: "This is the Wenhua Palace, the center of the country's cardinals, why should we make mistakes!"
Zhao Zuyin was shocked by his voice, suppressed his anger, and turned away from Ge Xi.
Gao pragmatically reached out and patted Ge Xi's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Ge, there is no need to be angry." He then saluted everyone present and said: "Mencius once said, 'Those who have something to do are like digging wells.
If you are too tall to reach the spring, it is like an abandoned well. I am willing to encourage you all." [Wufeng's note: "Zhujun" is a Chinese word!]
Everyone bowed their hands in return. Zhao Zuyin had just been ridiculed once by Ge Xi. Although his face looked ugly, he could only return the salute casually with a straight face.
Gao Pingshi didn't waste any more time, turned around and walked towards Meng Chong, smiled in front of him and said, "Thank you for your help, Meng Chong."
Meng Chong was very polite to Gao Pragmatic, without any pretense of being an "internal minister", and his face was filled with laughter: "Mr. Xiao Gao, you're very polite, come here, please."
Gao Pragmatic naturally had to say politely: "Meng Zhangyin, please."
When I turned to the main hall, as soon as I entered the door, I heard Zhu Yijun inside smiled and said: "Gao pragmatic, you came at the right time. All the gentlemen said that the book you just wrote, if it is of this level throughout the whole book, it will definitely be straight forward in the future."
Where is Hanlin’s foundation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Concubine Li's voice sounded, accusingly: "Your father hasn't spoken yet, don't get carried away."
Gao pragmatic glanced up and saw that the smile on Zhu Yijun's face froze. He coughed dryly, stopped his smile and sat down honestly. Concubine Li then turned her head back and sat upright again.
But Long Qing smiled and waved his hand, saying: "The prince is pleased that his companion is outstanding in knowledge. This is human nature. Your concubine does not need to be harsh."
Gao Jingshi didn't dare to neglect, so he stepped forward to salute and said long live, thousand live and so on as usual.
Long Qingxu raised his hand and said: "Gao Xiao Aiqing is flat." Then before Gao Pingshi stood up and stood firm, he laughed again: "Forget it, I'll just call you Aiqing. Add a small character, it feels a little weird.
That's not appropriate. Anyway, I always call Mr. Gao Mr. instead of his first name, so it doesn't matter."
Gao pragmatically hit the snake and put it on the stick, then bowed again: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness." This was considered to be a solid statement.
Long Qing didn't mind, and asked with a smile: "You just said in your article that this book is called "Longwen Whip Shadow", but due to time constraints, you only wrote the first chapter?"
Gao pragmatically replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Long Qing smiled and nodded, and said: "After reading your articles, the gentlemen, me, the prince, and the imperial concubine just now felt that you are the most suitable person to be the prince's companion. But before you came, the prince was asking the gentlemen for advice, what is the meaning of '
"Long Wen Whip Shadow'? Do you think it's you who is going to explain it now, or should you please explain it to me, gentlemen?"
Gao pragmatism naturally wanted to be modest, so he said: "You gentlemen are all learned seniors, I dare you to be the first."
Not to mention, although Emperor Longqing's own knowledge was limited, he respected his teachers very much. He nodded and said with a smile: "It makes sense, let Shen Aiqing explain it."
When Shen Shixing saw the emperor's roll call, he stood up quickly and said: "If I remember correctly, the so-called dragon writer's name comes from the "Book of Han·Biography of the Western Regions". "Thin tips, dragon characters, fish eyes, sweaty and bloody horses are full of them"
Huangmen. These are the names of these four kinds of good horses. Among them, Long Wen does not need to be whipped. He gallops as soon as he sees the shadow of the whip and travels thousands of miles in a day. Former sages also said "Ji Zi Long Wen", which is also based on Ji Zi and Long Wen.
The two types of thousand-mile horses are used to describe prodigies. Therefore, I believe that the name of this book is "Long Wen Whip Shadow" in the hope that this book will spur talented people, so that all young boys in the world who read this book can become a thousand-mile horse that gallops across the world.
also."
Long Qing was overjoyed when he heard this: "What a name! What a meaning!" As he said that, he turned to look at Gao Pragmatic. Seeing that Gao Pragmatic's face was calm, neither humble nor arrogant, he suddenly became more and more happy as he looked at it, and said: "Sure enough, the origins of family studies, and the writing is so good.
, the name is so good..."
Concubine Li was very happy after hearing Shen Shixing's explanation just now - the emperor's concubine is also a parent, who doesn't want their children to become talented? She also saw that Gao Pragmatic was handsome, unlike his third uncle, who, although he was knowledgeable, was
He looked a bit rough and arrogant, but he couldn't help but smile, and he felt quite approving of it in his heart.
Long Qing was happy and wanted to praise Gao Qing's pragmatism, so he asked Shen Shixing: "Shen Aiqing, you came from the Hanlin Academy. I'm here to ask you if there are any officials in the Hanlin Academy who are suitable for Gao Qing's family to take up now?"
