Chapter 4: The Past
Li Yuming didn't dare to guess the emperor's mind on his face, that is, as a literati and scholar in his heart, Li Yu also had his own style and ideas. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć However, as a family of eunuchs and a fine Tang dynasty ancestry, he has received excellent education and training since he was a child, so he understands a lot of power things more than ordinary people. Especially the current emperor Liu Sheng deliberately arranged it carefully this time, this Wang Yu and Qu Ju, who are also the teachers of the kings like himself, came to greet him this time, and Li Yu knew that it must have a deep meaning.
This Wang Yu is the most famous talented woman in the court of the Han Dynasty (Southern Han, there is another small court of the Northern Han Dynasty in the north, which is also the Liu family), and her influence in the Xingwang Mansion in Kyoto is even more famous than that of Lu Qiongxian, the famous maid in the court.
His ancestor was Wang Dingbao, the head of the Lingnan scholars when Emperor Gaozu established the Han (Southern Han) court, and the ancestor was a famous family of Gaomen valves in the Tang Dynasty, and the history and glory of the gate valve family had a long history.
In the past, the Han Dynasty established the state in Lingnan Xingwangfu, when the Wang family was among the big families in the Central Plains to avoid chaos in Lingnan, and Wang Dingbao, who moved south, ranked first among the literati. In the end, Liu Yan, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, made the royal family glorious, and also cultivated many talents to serve the imperial court, and even many countries in the north of the Central Plains that were also separatist regimes, which can be described as peach and plum all over the world.
Of course, now when it comes to what the current emperor values, it is Wang Yu himself who was promoted by the Han (Southern Han) literati as the first Lingnan literati, and his literary talent and talent have a great influence.
Of course, this Li Yu also understands in his heart, maybe it is because this lucky Wang Yu is a daughter, and her transcendent status in the Han Dynasty can reassure this emperor. Li Yike knew that in the Gaozu Emperor and Emperor Yan Dynasty, the one who was deeply valued by the court and the emperor that day was also another famous figure from the Wang family, Zuo Servant shot Wang Xuan, who did Tongping Zhang in the hands of the current emperor for a few days, and after the emperor's position was stabilized, he was idle, and later died unexpectedly for some reason. Although Wang Tuo's frustration has a lot to do with his personal support for Wang Hongchang of Yue that day, it is also because of his prestige among the literati, which can already influence the decision-making of the imperial court!
After the founding of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu strictly forbade martial affairs, so in the end, the Han Dynasty has been in the hands of Emperor Gaozu and the current emperor for nearly 20 years, but there has never been a change of power by military generals, and the warlords in various parts of the Central Plains use the power in their hands to change the court with various names, which is really dazzling and sad. Therefore, as a representative of Wenchen, Li Yu is still a little proud.
Like Pan Chongche, the most appealing military general in the army of the Han Dynasty today, thought that his power in the army was slightly greater that day, and he was suppressed by the current emperor Liu Sheng's shrewdness, which not only allowed him to enter the inner service province to be the inner service province, but also used the excuse to circle the capital Xingwang Mansion and was in a state of pension all the year round, which is completely impossible in other regimes in the Central Plains.
And this seemingly silent phrase is also a remarkable character, with a legendary prestige and a long family history. In the past, when Emperor Gaozu had not yet established the Han Dynasty, there were more than 70 local separatist forces in Lingnan. However, the largest of them has eight shares, and Wang Quhao of Jiaozhou ranks first, separating one side alone.
Then Emperor Gaozu conquered the forces of all directions with great wisdom and courage, unified the vast area of Lingnan, the king of Jiaozhou saw the general trend and also submitted to the Han Dynasty, the merit was ranked in the first place of the king with different surnames in the Han Dynasty, and this song is the grandson of the king of Jiaozhou in the past, his father is the eldest son of the king of Jiaozhou, Qu Chengbo, and now the Jiaozhou festival makes Qu Chengmei is his uncle, although Qu Chengbo is a concubine, and later did not inherit the hereditary prince, but he also has a title, Qu is the eldest son of Qu Chengbo, and he is really illustrious.
This song has been brave since childhood, and he has made great achievements in the army at the age of more than ten years. However, his personality has always been introverted in this song, and he is not good at communicating with people. However, he is quite brave and extraordinary, and he has always been considered to be a brave and unscrupulous type among the generals of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, in the hands of the current emperor Liu Sheng, who has a suspicious personality, he has been valued and promoted.
Although Li Yu is not good at martial arts, he has always been good at state affairs, and he also knows that Qu Ju can now be at least ranked in the top five in the ranking of martial arts generals in the Han Dynasty. Of course, the most important thing is that this song is usually praised in the army without forming a gang, and Li Yu knows that he must not be as simple as it seems. To Li Yu's surprise, this phrase has always been at odds with the extremely popular Pan Chongche, as for the reason, no one understands, but Li Yu knows that this is a good thing for the emperor who has always been very protective of Pan Chongche. Li Yu didn't think about it deeply, because Li Yu still had this pride, and he subconsciously rejected the generals in his heart.
Li Yu thought about the current situation and continued to investigate, but he knew that the reason why the Han Dynasty was able to establish a state in the chaos of war at the end of the Tang Dynasty. One is because of the remoteness of the Central Plains, and the forces of all parties in the Central Plains who think they are fighting endlessly are beyond the reach of the whip; The second is the long border and the sea, and the development of foreign trade and commerce, so that the rich country and the people can live and work in peace and contentment; The three prohibitions on military force and literature put an end to the warlords' support of troops and self-respect and change of regime since the end of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, since the founding of the Han Dynasty for decades, as a descendant of the remnants of the Central Plains Shi clan, Li Yu, who is now the head of the Han Dynasty, is convinced that if the national policy of Emperor Gaozu and the current emperor can be adhered to, the successor needs to be able to carry it out as always, then the Han Dynasty will definitely prosper in the country.
Li Yu thinks that the biggest characteristic of Qu Ju is that he has no ambition, and he has always shown the feeling that people think that there is only the emperor in his heart, so Li Yu knows that this is the reason why he is most valued by the emperor. Of course, this Wei Wang is also a monster, among so many Wang Shi who teach the art of war and martial arts, only he has been with Qu Ju for more than half a year, and I have to say that he is a big outlier. Li Yu thinks that he still knows a lot about the character of King Wei, and he still has this confidence in the ** kings for a few years, so he is still very happy that the emperor sent him over to welcome King Wei back to the dynasty, but what the emperor said to him He only hid his excitement in his heart, as long as there was no conflict with these two colleagues.
Of course, in Li Yu's eyes before, he didn't even have any hopes and ideas for this absurd King Wei since he was a child, and some of them were also the idea of a springboard on his own career. But in the past few years of carefully teaching the kings, Li Yu also knows that this Wei Wang has an advantage, that is, he is very clever in mind and hand, and he can learn all the arts of literature and martial arts.
Now that King Wei is not yet fifteen years old, this Li is full of confidence and confidence that a person as smart as King Wei, as long as he is guided well, not to mention how much he will do, will definitely not be a very bad emperor. Although the current Han Dynasty is also very complicated, and the hundreds of officials and servants in the court are all strange, Li Yu still wants to do a good job in his heart, and he is a little afraid to think about recovering the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty. Although Li Yu has no bottom at all in this heart, he is a person who does not want to make contributions and become famous in history.
He turned his head sideways and looked at Wang Yu who was a step away from the left behind him, looking at her quiet slim figure, and the beautiful big Danfeng eyes on her delicate and thin face seemed to have a hint of sadness. I don't know why, Li Yu also secretly sighed in his heart, out of the aesthetics of this era, Li Yu never thought that this delicate and quiet woman was beautiful, but this woman's intelligence and intelligence have always made him a little jealous.
Li Yu and Wang Yu's father Wang Ji has been a partner and friend since childhood, this Wang Ji has been a talented person since he was a child, not in the name of his father Wang Dingbao, he was called a prodigy, and at the age of sixteen, he was named a Jinshi and the first. And the crown entered the dynasty as an official, and was promoted to Zhenzhou (Huizhou) in the year of its establishment.
With his outstanding talent and ability, he managed the newly established Zhenzhou in an orderly manner, and was praised by Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Yan and the current emperor. It's a pity that what makes people sad is that in the third year of the current emperor's Qianhe, Wang Ji died of illness in office. The current emperor, who has always been Wang Ji's teacher and friend, actually quit the dynasty for three days for Wang Ji, and he has not been able to himself, feeling that he has lost a mentor and friend, and the court has lost an Optimus Prime who can make meritorious contributions, expand territory, and govern the country and the country.
And this Wang Yu has also been familiar with the hundred books of scripture and history with his father since he was a child, and he can do everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. When he was eight years old, Yongmei wrote a poem, and once it was spread, it immediately caused a sensation in Kyoto's Xingwang Mansion. And at the age of ten, she was already promoted by the good deeds as the most famous talented woman in the Han Kingdom. In the year of his reign, Wang Yu was promised to be married to a famous figure in the Han Dynasty, Yang Xuanyu, the son of Yang Dong, the tiger son of the Qianjia of the Gaozu Dynasty.
What makes people sigh is that she has not yet passed the door, Qianhe ten years because of the chaos of the Ma clan of Chu when the sons of the Chu State fought for power, the emperor Liu Sheng took the opportunity to open up and make contributions, so several large armies gathered on the border of Chu State. When Yang Dong passed away, Yang Xuanyu, as a pioneer all the way, accompanied the army to conquer the Southern Tang Dynasty, who expected that he would die in battle, and this matter made the Xingwang Mansion rumor that she was unknown. Since then, Wang Yu has lived in seclusion in Baiyun Mountain, planting plums and cranes, and always tunes the piano and tastes poetry with three friends. She stayed in Baiyun Mountain for a few years, and in recent years, she has met friends with poetry every year, and her reputation has grown even greater among the literati of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, there was a famous man in Kyoto's Xingwang Mansion, He Qin'an, who admired Wang Yu's literary talents, and often asked friends to go to Baiyun Mountain to seek advice, and in private he openly said to people that Wang Yu would not marry, and Wang Yu did not comment and respond when he heard the rumors. At the right time, He Qin Antuo, the minister of the central court, asked Wang Yu for marriage, but Wang Yu did not allow it, and the matter was immediately spread in the Xingwang Mansion.
Today's emperor is well aware of Wang Yu's talent, and he has seen her many times with his father when he was young, and he specially summoned her to the palace to face the saint. Because he also saw that Wang Yu was light and thin, he recognized that he was not blessed, and he always thought about the talent of his father Wang Ji in his heart, and wanted to announce his wish to enter the palace and be canonized, and regretted it in his heart. Then, because of his admiration for his literary talent and talent, Wang Ji's daughter was rewarded immediately, and he was appointed as the teacher of the kings, the king of Wei, the king of Zhen, the king of Qi and other sons.
At that time, because of his sincerity and unremitting deeds, he Qin'an had already spread a good story among the literati of the Xingwang Mansion in Kyoto. Many elders of the Wang family have also heard about it, and if there is an emperor, they will think of a comprehensive solution. It's just that this He Qin'an is indeed quite famous, but the elders of the Wang family, because of Wang Dingbao and Wang Ji's prestige in the past and Wang Yu's current reputation, do not dare to ask too much about Wang Yu's affairs and force him, so the matter dragged on vaguely. But I didn't expect that because of He Qin'an's matter, he annoyed another person and caused trouble for Wang Yu.
This person's name is Shi Yong, and he is He Qin'an's aunt and cousin, and he was originally from Qujiang. This person has been careless and smooth, but he is even more unlearned, especially fond of gambling. Because things are not allowed near the countryside, in order to avoid things, I went to Kyoto Xingwangfu. Just as the emperor ordered to fill the inner court, he gritted his teeth and entered the palace for refuge. Because he deliberately didn't want to be wronged, he soon won the trust of Gong Chengshu, the favored eunuch of the Provincial Governor of the Inner Court, and he also had some power and pride in this inner court. He has been very close to this cousin He Qin'an since he was a child, and when he learned about his cousin and Wang Yu, he thought he was smart and relied on Gong Chengshu's power to help.
Because he knew that Gong Chengshu had taken care of King Wei since he was a child, and after Lin Yan was killed in Ganquan Palace in the thirteenth year of Qianhe, Gong Chengshu faintly became the most powerful person in the inner palace. After he gained power, he was personally involved in everything on the surface, and on the surface, he was thought by the emperor, but this King Wei usually treated him very closely, which also made Gong Chengshu even more powerful.
This Shi Yong was obsessed with greed in Gong Chengshu's ears, trying to find a way to tell Wang Yu that he was not here, and this Gong Chengshu didn't know Wang Yu either, and even arranged a few jokes about Wang Yu and a literati who wanted to add to Gong Chengshu.
This sounded that Gong Chengshu was really angry, and in order to show his ability, although he didn't say anything, he also secretly put some thoughts on dealing with this Wang Yu.
It is said that this King Wei has had a hobby since he was a child, which is to follow the emperor to watch the brutal murder and torture of prisoners for fun. When Gong Chengshu was entertained by more than ten Persian women because of the maritime merchants, who were sexy and charming, he privately ordered someone to hand them over to King Wei. Jin Yan said that this Persian woman was good at dancing, and reminded King Wei that Wang Yu's vocal instrument skills, singing and dancing lyrics and music were outstanding. King Wei, who had never been interested in this, couldn't stand the wind in Gong Chengshu's ears, and one day he had fun with the girls and thought about what he said, so he asked Wang Yu to come and teach these Persian dancers.
Because these dancing girls' clothes are exposed, they are extremely bewitching and bewitching, which is not the routine of Central Plains dance art at all, which makes Wang Yu who came feel humiliated and angry. Because he was the emperor's hand-picked kings, he angrily reprimanded the king on the spot for his inaction.
I think that in the past, although the ancestors of the Han dynasty surnamed Liu were in business, they had always claimed to be heirlooms with martial arts, and their descendants were both civil and military. And this Wei Wang has also inherited this from his ancestors since he was a child, although he is obese, he is also very powerful. He was bewitched by Gong Chengshu and reprimanded by Wang Yu in public, and immediately became angry at the guts, and in front of everyone and Wang Yu, he actually grabbed a Persian dancer who Wang Yu refused to teach, and died on the ground at once.
When he was still very angry, he ordered someone to smash all the famous flute guqin prepared for Wang Yu's side on the spot. Wang Yu, who has always been outstanding in literature but docile by nature, went through such a scene, and she was immediately frightened. But she was stubborn in her personality, and she didn't retreat when she fought with King Wei at that time.
At that time, in order to enjoy King Bowei, some close attendants Le Fan had a bad idea privately, so that a few chamberlains stopped on the spot and did not leave Wang Yu's face, and played the fake phoenix with those Persian dancing girls. Wang Yu was embarrassed and indignant at the moment, and even angrily denounced King Wei for being shameless, and it happened that Mrs. Yu Ma Min and Mrs. Ya Lu Ya were friends of Wang Yu.
Because Wang Yu did not say anything about this matter after returning to Baiyun Mountain, it was rumored by people in the palace that Xingwangfu was rumored, which made the entire Xingwangfu a sensation. Wang Yu insisted on wanting to go into hiding, but the emperor naturally did not allow it.
At that time, the literati of the Xingwang Mansion in Kyoto jointly wrote a letter, demanding that the people involved be severely punished, and even King Wei was not spared. The emperor personally sent someone to apologize to Wang Yu, and confined King Wei to the palace for three months, and in order to eliminate the resentment of the literati, he held everyone in the palace accountable.
That Shi Yong became a substitute for the dead ghost, and was killed by the emperor's life stick outside the palace to show the people of Xingwangfu. This Gong Chengshu was so shrewd that he was afraid of getting into trouble, so he blamed He Qin'an for this matter, and made remarks to the emperor and He Qin'an's various wrongs and bewitched Shi Yong, the emperor was naturally furious, and actually summoned He Qin'an into the palace to be the secretary and supervisor of the school, and the whole Han Kingdom naturally understood the emperor's intentions, and it was inevitable that there would be a lot of discussions.
Because entering the palace as a secretary and eunuch means purifying He Qin'an. This is obviously a favor for the king, but the literati knew that He Qin'an had been wronged, but the emperor also promoted He Qin'an who had no background, coupled with the emperor's resolute style, naturally no one spoke out and disagreed.
Wang Yu lived in Baiyun Mountain for nearly a year, where did he expect that just a few months ago, one day Wang Yu finally entered the palace again to teach, but King Wei didn't know if he was impatient with Wang Yu, so he escaped from Wang Yu's piano class with his younger brother King Zhen, and ran away with his attendants in the Imperial Garden.
I don't know if King Wei should have this difficulty or Wang Yu is not lucky, but King Wei actually fell into a coma and later went crazy, the emperor was naturally furious and killed a servant, although on the surface there was no accountability Wang Yu, but during the treatment of King Wei, Wang Yu was left in the inner garden of the palace and was not allowed to return to Baiyun Mountain.
During the ups and downs, it was difficult to hear that King Wei had gradually improved under the care of Shi Zhenren, and Wang Yufang, who was depressed, was a little relieved. And the emperor didn't seem to say anything else, but still didn't let Wang Yu go.
This time, he was ordered to accompany King Wei to greet him, and Li Yu knew what the emperor meant, not only wanted Wang Yu and King Wei to reconcile, but also wanted to tell Wang Yu that King Wei was looked at differently by the Supreme Shi Zhenren of the Daomen. is more of a story about many literati in the Xingwang Mansion before, seeing that Wang Yu was under house arrest in the inner garden because of the injury of King Wei; Second, in order to highlight that King Liwei is the crown prince, Wang Yu's status as the teacher of the kings remains unchanged, and there is obviously a tendency to rise and be reused.
As for whether there is any deep meaning in the others, although Li Yu has speculation in his heart, he is still a little clueless, and he does not dare to locate it in his heart. But as the three most important people who came to greet King Wei this time, Li Yu knew that the pattern of the court seemed to change greatly with King Wei's return to the dynasty at the end of this spring, looking at the fluttering rain and the slowly coming team, Li Yu couldn't help but stand up straight, and the slender eyes seemed to be shining.
