Chapter 283 Zheng Guoben (Yuansi) has his own wish, but he dare not ask for his ears
Although it is said that Zhu Yijun summoned his ministers in Dongnuang Pavilion to discuss private matters, Gao Pragmatic didn't care much about it. What topics Zhu Yijun chose was Zhu Yijun's business, and what issues Gao Pragmatic took the initiative to mention was his pragmatic business. After so many years,
Come on, Zhu Yijun has never stopped him from talking.
What's more, now that Gao Pragmatic is an important minister of the imperial court - a pillar of the imperial court, it is even more impossible for Zhu Yijun not to let him speak.
Arriving outside Dongnuan Pavilion, Gao Jingshi saw Chen Ju walking down the steps with a smile on his face to greet him. He was about to greet him, but unexpectedly Chen Ju whispered: "Master Marquis, the Queen is also here."
Gao Pragmatic was about to go up the steps with half of his foot in the air. When he heard this, he stopped immediately and said in shock: "Is the Queen here? I'll ask to see you later." As he said that, he raised his foot.
He took it back and stood at the foot of the steps.
"Otherwise, otherwise." Chen Ju still smiled and said, "It was the Emperor who invited the Queen to come here, and not only the Queen, but also the Young Master is here."
Gao pragmatically stared at Chen Ju's eyes and asked seriously: "Master?"
"Yes, Master." Chen Ju also replied seriously.
"Has the matter finally been settled..." Gao Jingshi exhaled a long breath, looked up at the sky, and seemed to be talking to himself or to Chen Ju: "The dispute over the country for nearly twenty years has finally been settled.
Are you down?"
Chen Ju took a deep breath and said slowly but firmly: "Our family believes that the emperor invited the Marquis to come today to make a final decision, so as long as the Marquis is firm enough, this matter will definitely happen!"
Gao pragmatic still raised his head, but slowly closed his eyes. After a while, he opened them, looked at Chen Ju and said, "I understand, thank you, Brother Linggang."
"It's all for the Ming Dynasty. What's the point of hard work? When it comes to hard work, Master Hou is the one who has worked the hardest these years!" Chen Ju sighed.
Gao Pragmatic smiled calmly: "Brother Linggang is overly praised... In this case, please let Brother Linggang pass the news on his behalf."
Chen Ju nodded, stretched out his hand, pointed at Hou Xuan's position, and said, "Please wait here, Mr. Hou." Gao pragmatically nodded in greeting, went up the steps, and stood up not far from the door to take shelter from the rain.
The position of the umbrella - there is no rain today, the umbrella just tells me where to stand.
Chen Ju came in to report. He didn't say anything for the time being. Gao Pragmatic stood under the umbrella and whispered quietly: "Young master..."
Just now, when Chen Ju mentioned the word "young master" for the first time, Gao Pragmatic immediately asked a serious question, and Chen Ju also answered seriously. Now, Gao Pragmatic is asking again, why?
Because "Little Master" corresponds to "Emperor", which is a special name for the prince by the people in the palace. It has been said a long time ago that within the Ming Dynasty court, at least after Zhu Di designated Beijing as the emperor's residence, the Beijing court
Many titles in Chinese have begun to become "northernized". The most obvious feature is that the use of the word "ye" has increased significantly.
The word "ye" has its own historical development origin. It is difficult to understand this character if it is written in simplified Chinese. You have to read it in traditional Chinese: it is written as "ye", with "father" at the top and "ye" at the bottom.
In the oracle bone shape of the character "father", the character "father" is a hand holding an object such as a stone axe. In ancient times, people learned to use tools for productive labor and war, which was of great significance to creating a new life, so
"Father" is an honorific term used by ancient people for men engaged in labor and war.
So, who is the main labor force in a family, and who is the person who must participate in the war when the tribe needs it? Of course it is the adult man in the family, so after a period of evolution, the word "father" in ancient Chinese became fixed and became "father".
"Father" is the head of the family.
It can be said that the formation of patriarchal society stems from the fact that only adult men can undertake two of the three most important events in ancient tribal society: production and war. [Note: The other important event is sacrifice.]
There is historical evidence that the word "ye" did not appear until the Tang Dynasty. However, when people in the Tang Dynasty called their father colloquially, they called them "ye" and "yeye" - this sound finally turned into "ye".
Du Fu's "Army Chariots" says: "Ye Niang's wife walks to see each other off." The "Ye Niang" is the parents. In other words, when people in the Tang Dynasty said "Ye", it was not their grandfather but their father.
This is not an isolated proof. For example, in letters written by Li Shimin to Li Zhi, the signatures are often "yeyechi" - the reason is because as an emperor, everything written by Li Shimin is an edict, and "yeye" refers to him.
Self-proclaimed in front of his son.
In fact, why wait until the Tang Dynasty? Long before the Jin Dynasty, people had already called their father "ye", but I won't go into details here. In short, by the Song Dynasty, people added the form "ye" to the "ye"
The character for father is written as the pictographic character "ye".
Further development later, the word "ye" originally meant father and gradually moved up the hierarchy, and was specifically used to address grandfathers and men of the same generation as grandfather. After the Ming Dynasty, the word "ye" has been used by people to address
A grandfather or a male of high status.
Since there are so many "noble-status men" in Beijing, the title "Xie Ye" spread out with Beijing as the center. Later, when the Tatars entered the customs, they also accepted this custom, so that later generations saw
The Qing Dynasty palace drama, the whole drama is completely different.
In short, both the Ming and Qing Dynasties liked to call the emperor "Emperor", "Long Live Lord", "Long Live Grandpa", and they also liked to call the prince "Little Master". The reason is that at this time, the word "Master" mainly expresses
What is important is that this person has a distinguished status.
Since it mainly shows the noble status, the father and son with the most noble status in the world, they are naturally the emperor and the prince - the "emperor" and the "young master".
Chen Juneng has always been able to secure his position as the Chief of Ceremony, largely because of his cautious and steady character. Since he dared to call the emperor's legitimate son "young master" in front of Gao Pingshi, he naturally had enough knowledge about today's matter.
grasp.

"Announcement—Fengtian Yiyun, sincere and upright civil servant, specially enters Zuozhu Kingdom, Taifu, Crown Prince, Taishi, and Wenhuadian University Scholar, Hubu Shangshu, Nanning Hou Gao pragmatically, to pay an audience!"
With a loud call, Gao Pragmatic woke up from his thoughts. He subconsciously glanced at Chen Ju, who shouted the call himself, and muttered in his heart: Since calling in Dongnuang Pavilion is generally defined by the emperor as talking about private matters, then
Why bother reading all my official titles and positions? This should be used in more formal occasions.
It seems that the issue of the crown prince is really going to be discussed, but Zhu Yijun deliberately defines it as a "private matter of the Tian family" for some unknown reason.
However, this was not the time to think too much. Gao Qingshi withdrew his gaze, calmly lowered his head and walked into Dongnuan Pavilion.
He deliberately lowered his head and only used the corner of his eye to see Zhu Yijun sitting in the palace below the knees and the hem of another bright yellow skirt beside him, then he leaned down and bowed down, saying: "I am a pragmatic minister. Your Majesty, Queen."
.”
Although the action was formal, after all, he was in Dong Nuan Pavilion, so he omitted the words "Long Live, Thousand Lives" and so on.
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "To be pragmatic, there is no need to be too polite. Just stay on your own terms... Come and give Nanning a seat and a brocade seat."
Granting a seat and granting a brocade seat may seem to be the same word, but they are actually quite different. Generally speaking, when the emperor granted a seat, he probably just asked the eunuchs to move a small stool at will. This was already the case in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
It's a great favor.
If it is a brocade seat, it would be a seat such as the Grand Master's chair, and in this new year, the Grand Master's chair must be covered with fur brocade and the like to keep warm and prevent the cold.
It's an incredible courtesy.
Of course, Gao Pragmatic's own status is indeed high. For example, the title he just held was "Specially Entered the Zuozhu Kingdom." In the original history, only nine people in the entire Ming Dynasty were awarded this first-class honor: in the third year of Hongwu,
Li Shanchang and Xu Da were granted the title of Zuozhuguo; in the early days of Zhengde, Liu Jian was granted the title of Zuozhuguo as Minister Gu Ming; the others were Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Liang Chu, Yang Yiqing, Zhang Juzheng, and Shen Shixing.
However, due to the emergence of Gao Jingshi in this life, Gao Gong replaced Zhang Juzheng, and Gao Jingshi himself replaced Shen Shixing... but there were still nine places available.
With such a status, it is reasonable for the emperor to give him preferential treatment.
Gao pragmatically sat down, still lowering his head slightly. This was mainly because it was inconvenient for his subordinates to look directly at the queen - although he had seen her many times in the past years, the situation was different today and his attitude must be correct.
But when he did this, Zhu Yijun felt a little uncomfortable. According to Zhu Yijun's experience, once Gao Pragmatic is so formal, he will refrain from courtesy during the conversation, which in Zhu Yijun's opinion is not conducive to today's conversation.
With a thought, Zhu Yijun simply stood up and walked to the queen, signaling the queen to give him the child. Queen Wang very obediently handed over the sleeping emperor's legitimate son in her arms. Zhu Yijun looked at it and subconsciously showed a gentle smile.
Then, he walked up to Gao Jingshi with the child in his arms and said, "Pragmatic, come and see my child."
The emperor stood up and walked in front of him. Of course Gao Pingshi couldn't sit still, so he stood up on his own initiative. He glanced at the infant child with a smile, then showed some surprise and asked, "Has the emperor's legitimate son's jaundice gone?"
Zhu Yijun said happily: "Yes, this thing comes and goes quickly. It shows that the emperor is a very lucky person."
Naturally, he would agree with such pragmatic words, nodding his head and saying: "What the emperor said is absolutely true. I see that the emperor's legitimate son has a full heaven, a square pavilion, thick ears and a long neck, and a white and rosy skin. It is true that he is rich and noble. Congratulations to the emperor.
,congratulations to the queen."
The queen obviously wouldn't interrupt at this time, but Zhu Yijun looked at Gao Pragmatic with a smile, suddenly lifted the child forward slightly, and said: "It's not because of you that I couldn't have this child. You can come and hug him too."
This was completely beyond Gao Pragmatic's expectations. He hesitated for a moment and said: "I am a foreign minister, so it stands to reason..."
"I'll hug you as long as I let you, who dares to talk?" Although Zhu Yijun still kept smiling, but in addition to the faint smile, there was a murderous tone in his tone: "In the future, I will ask him to respect you as my second father, this is nothing.
What?"
Gao Pragmatic's back was numb for a moment, and he almost suspected that Zhu Yijun had summoned him to kill people and silence him today. The problem was that Zhu Yijun had talked to this extent, but he did not dare to refuse. He could only stretch out his hand and pretend to smile casually: "The emperor is joking.
Already."
Zhu Yijun was about to speak, but unexpectedly, the child was held by two different people in a short period of time. Maybe he was disturbed and fell asleep, so he opened his eyes in a daze.
The two clear and bright eyes looked left and then again, seeming to feel that neither of them looked familiar, and for a moment they were a little confused.
Gao Pangshi was a little nervous, fearing that the child would burst into tears as soon as he handed it over to him. Although this is a very common thing, after all... the situation now is a bit special, and he even doubted what Zhu Yijun was thinking. If there were more
Once this happens, I don’t know what Zhu Yijun will think.
Zhu Yijun also seemed to be very concerned about this problem which was not a problem in theory. He looked at the little guy seriously, came closer and said with a smile: "Ah, my son is awake? Here, look at who is holding you, do you like it?"
?”
Queen Wang on the other side seemed a little nervous after hearing these words. She subconsciously got up and walked over, saying, "Hao'er is awake? Are you hungry? Did the wet nurse just follow you?"
Zhu Yijun waved his hand, but continued to look at the child in Gao Pingshi's hand. The child was confused and confused, but when he saw his mother coming over, he suddenly smiled and then seemed relieved, tilting his head slightly.
He leaned against Gao Pingshi's chest and fell asleep again with his eyes closed.
Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then laughed and said: "Okay, okay, be pragmatic. I heard the old nun in the palace say before that children are the most sensitive. He feels safe with you. This
Then I will continue to sleep...good!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gao Pingshi was very relieved, and did not care that his back was soaked with cold sweat. He said with a spring breeze on his face: "To be honest with the emperor, I was just afraid that I would be too much on the battlefield.
Yes, with the evil spirit on his body, it will disturb the emperor's legitimate son."
Zhu Yijun laughed and said: "You are a civil servant or a great scholar of the world, how can you be so evil?" After saying that, he reached out and took the child again, turned around and handed it to Queen Wang who came over, and joked: "Queen, I am asking Hao
Why are you so anxious if you have some literary talent?"
Empress Wang took the child and said with a smile: "Why are you so anxious? Besides, if the emperor had said earlier that he wanted Hao'er to have some literary talent, I would rather Hao'er be hungry than move."
Zhu Yijun smiled even more heartily, turned to Gao Yingshi and said: "It's not the fault of the ancestors. I think the queen wishes she could raise Hao'er in your home. Only then can the literary spirit be at its peak."
This cannot be said casually, Gao Pingshi said quickly: "This is not possible, not to mention that the ministers are not talented and have little knowledge, but as the emperor's legitimate son, of course he needs some culture, but the more important thing is nobility, but this requires
It’s only available when the emperor is around.”
"You are the only one who can speak." Zhu Yijun laughed again, and then said to Queen Wang: "The wet nurse is in the ear room. The queen is going to see if Hao'er is really hungry. Let me talk to Pragmatic first."
Queen Wang understood, nodded and said, "I know, I know."
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped, smiled and said to Gao Pingshi: "Haoer is so close to Gao Aiqing, I hope Gao Aiqing can teach Haoer well in the future."
Gao Pragmatic was startled and subconsciously glanced at Zhu Yijun, but Zhu Yijun just smiled and said nothing, so Gao Pragmatic had no choice but to say: "I don't dare to ask for your ear."
