"It's a really good painting, with vast mist, lonely boat, and extraordinary brushwork." I nodded calmly in appreciation. After all, with my identity here, I can't be too rude. If I express ecstasy about the gift I received, then I have to do it.
Working for people is not a job. With my status and status, I can help with some things with little effort. But for some things, it is better to just sit back and watch. Although His Majesty is still quite wise now, you must always remember that he is already over seventy years old.
, I heard that the throne will be passed to the grandson of the emperor next year. What if he is old and confused and becomes suspicious of an old minister like me? I just want to get a good ending from beginning to end. See the middle-aged man Liu Zhen who gave the gift.
With such a look on my face, a trace of worry flashed in my eyes, and I said cautiously: "Old Master, my nephew's father is old and confused. He should not write books carelessly. Please read it to me in the same year and as a minister in the same palace."
For my sake, please say a few nice words to my father so that he can enjoy his old age in peace."
"Really? What book did Brother Wenju write? Come and see it. I really like Brother Wenju's writing style?" I became interested. His father, Liu Kui and Liu Wenju and I were both Jinshi scholars at the same time.
, I was the number one scholar, and he was the second, but to be honest, I admire his articles very much. The writing is rigorous and the historical evidence is detailed. If it weren't for his stubborn personality, he would not serve the two masters no matter what. He would be the historian of this dynasty.
It is definitely in his pocket. I heard a while ago that he is writing "History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties". I was eagerly waiting for it, but there has been no news recently. Liu Zhen had an embarrassed look on his face and took it out of his arms.
He took out a cloth bag and handed it over. I opened it and saw that the four characters "History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties" were written on the light blue cover. I opened it excitedly and started reading, completely forgetting that there were outsiders in the room. Waiting for me to read ten lines.
After finishing reading, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. Brother Wenju really showed no mercy to me. He lazily put down the book and said in a low voice: "My dear nephew, please go back first. I have to look at this matter carefully. You
You know, I haven't been involved in political affairs for many years."
After seeing off Liu Zhen, I shouted loudly: "Xiao Shunzi, Xiao Shunzi." Following my call, an old man in green clothes walked in from the door. He looked about forty years old and had a delicate appearance.
He has a fair face and no beard. This man is Li Shun, my confidant who has been with me for more than fifty years. He was once a eunuch in the Nanchu Palace. He is extremely skilled in martial arts. It is said that he has reached the level of a master. Why do I say it is rumored? Of course it is because I am not big.
He understands martial arts, but he looks like a middle-aged man despite being in his early sixties. It must be true. In the past, some people didn’t believe that a master like Li Shun would treat such a helpless person like me.
Li was a loyal scholar and once wanted to bribe him, but I won’t tell you what happened to him, lest you lose your appetite. I asked with a wry smile: "Liu Kui is a legacy minister of Southern Chu. He said some outrageous things."
It's nothing. Why do the ministers in the court value it so much?" Li Shun said with a smile: "I think I have forgotten that the emperor's grandson will succeed next year. The princess is your eldest daughter. Who doesn't want to please you at this time?
But Liu Kui is so stubborn, he will always put you in the second minister's list, even if you don't care, the honor of the crown prince and the emperor's grandson must be maintained."
"Yes!" I suddenly realized that although Liu Kui said in "The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties" that I was "feminine, cunning and scheming", who would have known that I was a person who was not very sensitive to politics. If it wasn't for Xiao Shunzi's
I am afraid that my wise words and self-preservation have been overturned long ago. Thinking of this, I said lightly: "Go and tell Roulan, Liu Kui is the only remaining minister of Nanchu, why bother him, some things are just
If he doesn't say it, others will say it. Although the "Jiang Suiyun Biography" he wrote for me is a bit harsh, it is still consistent with the facts. He wrote it to prevent others from writing indiscriminately. Besides, my affairs will not harm the emperor.
Please tell her not to worry about Sun." Xiao Shunzi withdrew respectfully.
I opened "Jiang Suiyun's Biography" with great interest and started reading it again. Although I haven't concluded it yet, it doesn't matter if I read it in advance.
On Ding Mao, the sixteenth year of Xian De, the ruler of the country was slightly ill. In autumn, he recovered from his illness and opened Enke. Scholars from Jiangnan were excited, and many followers followed him. On August 15, the gold list came out, and the number one scholar was Jiang Zhe of Jiaxing.
, At that time, Suiyun's name had not yet been revealed, so everyone questioned him and found out who he was.
Jiang Zhe, courtesy name Suiyun, was born in Wushen in the fourth year of the same Yuan Dynasty. His father was Jiang Mu, courtesy name Hanqiu. Hanqiu was a young boy from a poor family, but he was elegant and romantic. Therefore, his wife loved her daughter, but Hanqiu was unable to make progress in the troubled times, so he refused to become an official.
, all day long, he only taught his son to read, and had not shown his virtue for eight years, Jiaxing plague, his wife died of illness, not long ago, due to a minor illness in the cold autumn, he and his wife died, so he took the son to travel far to Jiangxia, the cold autumn illness became more serious, Suiyun provided medical treatment for him
, when I met the medical saint Sang Chen, he loved to follow the cloud to learn a lot and remember it well, so he gave me all his money to teach him. Not long after, the cold autumn gradually got better, Sang Chen went to the north of the Yangtze River, followed the cloud to serve the decoction, and stayed in Jiangxia. In the eleventh year of Renxu, he showed his virtue.
, "Han Qiu Ill Death Collection" in twelve volumes has been handed down from generation to generation. It is elegant and fresh, and is very popular among people today.
When Suiyun died in the cold autumn, Suiyun was poor and could not be buried. At that time, Zhenyuan Hou Liu was guarding Jiangxia to seek a teacher for his son.
It became "Ode to Autumn Water", which includes: "A little while ago, the moon rose above the east mountain, wandering among the bullfights. The white dew stretched across the river, and the light of the water touched the sky. Even a reed seemed like it, and the vast expanse was blank. It was as vast as Feng Xu.
Controlling the wind, but not knowing where it stops; fluttering as if left behind in the world, independent, emerging and ascending to immortality." In the sentence, Lu Hou was so surprised that he stood up and thanked him, and ordered his son to come out and seek advice from his teacher -
