Chapter 180: Today I learned about His Majesty's suffering
When he entered the palace, Liangchen was thinking about what he wanted to say, but after thinking about it, he found that he had nothing to say.
The reason is that he doesn't know why Concubine Zheng Guifei wants to see him.
If you don't know why, you won't have an answer.
So, Liangchen just stood there and didn't say anything.
However, because he was too nervous, he forgot what Gonggong Liu told him - to salute after entering the hall.
When he came to his senses and was about to salute, his eyes were attracted by a slightly chubby middle-aged man lying on a chair.
Who is the man lying on the chair who can be in the palace of the concubine, the good minister knows without thinking.
It was the first time he had seen an imperial emperor so closely, and Wanli on the bamboo chair was such a living person, just looking at him so sincerely.
This feeling is something that Liangchen has never had.
Just like in his previous life, he suddenly had tea opposite a high-ranking official one day, talking and laughing.
He was stunned for a moment.
"What do you think of me as this, am I good-looking?"
Wanli laughed, originally thought that this Suning Wei Liangchen must be an unruly and merry little Langjun, and a talented man like Tang Bohu, so that he could understand why he made that blank scroll.
Not only Wanli, but also Zheng Guifei originally thought so, not that kind of unruly talent, how could there be such an ingenious volume.
But the real Wei Liangchen in front of him is just a young man who is not good-looking, looking at it, there is still a rustic atmosphere. There is no unruly breath on the body, which is very surprising to Wanli.
He got up from the bamboo chair and walked towards Wei Liangchen, not caring at all about the young man's bold move of not saluting when he saw him, but staring at him directly.
Liangchen noticed that the emperor was walking with a slight limp.
He suddenly remembered the historical materials he had seen in his previous life to excavate the Ming Ding Mausoleum.
It is clearly recorded that whether it is the painful shape of Wanli's right leg curled up in the coffin, or the fact that the right leg is obviously shorter than the left leg after the bones are recovered, it is enough to prove that the Wanli Emperor, who was named "Shenzong" by later generations and put the Ming death hat on his head, actually suffered from a serious foot disease during his lifetime, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was lame.
Liangchen just watched as Wanli limped towards him, the emperor's movements were very similar to his partner who had been suffering from polio when he was a child in his previous life.
Liangchen understood why Wanli had not been in court for many years and refused to appear in front of the courtiers, in addition to being dissatisfied with the foreign court, his body also determined that he could not appear in front of the courtiers every day like a normal person.
But it is precisely because of this that Wanli will bear the notoriety of "neglecting government", for the accusations and abuse of the courtiers, Wanli has explained countless times, "low back pain and weak feet, inconvenient to stand", "foot pain, difficult steps" and other words appeared more than once and the courtiers on the edict and even the holy decree, but these are not understood by the foreign dynasty and future generations, they only think that the emperor is lazy.
Perhaps, the inaction of a lazy emperor led to the defeat of Jiangshan Sheji, making "the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty" prosperous, which is exactly the warning material that those literati need.
It is also what the pseudo-Qing Dynasty needs, so that it can prove that the pseudo-Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains in accordance with the will of heaven.
Emperor Zhu Ming was immoral and incompetent, buried the country by himself, and the "Great Qing" replaced him, and the Mandate of Heaven was like this.
……
Wanli noticed that the young man was staring at his legs, and he was stunned for a moment and stopped there.
Seeing this, Zheng Guifei's eyebrows involuntarily raised, this little guy seemed to be a little disrespectful.
Liu Cheng, who brought Liangchen in, was also shocked in his heart, this little guy doesn't know what to do, how can he be so unruly.
"What are you staring at me?"
Wanli stared at Wei Liangchen, and his heart became a little unhappy. It was true that he had a leg problem, but no one had ever dared to stare at his leg so boldly.
In this world, people with disabilities never want others to look at their shortcomings. Even the emperor is the same.
There are so many fathers-in-law in the palace, and none of them want others to stare at their crotch.
Look at people's shortcomings, ten out of ten taboos.
Liangchen knew that Wanli had misunderstood him, and he knew that his next words would determine his fate, even his life.
As long as there is a sentence that is not right, and what is said is not in Wanli'er, his Wei Liangchen's little thousand-tose journey, I am afraid that it will stop here.
So, he let out a long sigh, showed a calm expression, and said heavily: "I only learned about Your Majesty's suffering today." ”
Wanli was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
Liangchen said: "Since the grass people entered the school, they have listened to the teachers and scholars that His Majesty has neglected his government and has not been in the court for decades. ”
Hearing this, Wanli's expression was soothed, and Concubine Zheng also frowned. The words "love has to be done" said to Wanli's heart, and this little guy is also very smart, he didn't say his leg disease in front of him, this mind alone is better than many people.
It's just that the little guy seems to have something to say.
"However, the grass people have always thought that what the teacher and the scholar said were wrong, and His Majesty was by no means slacking off in government, but following the example of Emperor Wenjing and ruling by inaction. This, what Mingjun did! Liangchen's words were loud, full of energy, loud and deafening.
The title of "Mingjun", since Wanli did not go to court, has not heard anyone say it for 20 years, and I am very excited.
If it was someone else who said this, Wanli only flattered himself as the other party, but this was said from the mouth of a teenager, which made him naturally think that Tong Yanfang was true.
This made him even more excited.
"What do you mean by that?" Wanli was in a good mood, and Concubine Zheng also listened interestingly and walked over from there.
"Your Majesty has not been in the court for 20 years, but state affairs are still running, from the court to the localities, everything is in order, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the country has no beacon fire, and the vassal states come to the court regularly, Your Majesty is not a Ming monarch, what is it?" Liangchen cleverly used a rhetorical question at the end, and he didn't make a definite sentence. Whether you Wanli is Mingjun or not, you think for yourself.
Of course, Wanli thought that he was Mingjun, so he was extremely happy, but he didn't show this happiness on his face, but shook his head and said: "What do you little guy know, they all say that I love money, you say, is there a Mingjun who loves money in this world?" ”
"Money, who doesn't love it, who doesn't like it?"
Liangchen was surprised, with a puzzled expression, "The grass people like money very much." Your Majesty, when the grass people were at home, they all knew that they couldn't live without money. Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, food, clothing, housing and transportation, which one does not need money? It's to go to the thatched house, and if you want to make a piece of butt paper, you have to buy it with money... Your Majesty is the king of a country, in charge of such a big country and so many people, if you don't have money, how can you live this life? ”
