Jia Huan walked out of the mountain chief's study with a heavy heart. In the small hall outside, Luo Junzi, Qiao Rusong, Zhang Chengjian, and Ji Cheng all stopped discussing, looked at him, and asked with concern: "Ziyu..."

Jia Huan shook his head gently, smiled bitterly, and said, "Brother Bo Miao, you can go in and talk to the mountain chief separately." ”

The mountain chief has been the imperial history of the left capital for these years, and he has the hope of the sea and admonished the country. The mountain chief wants to go to the last book before Zhishi, stand on the last shift, and be worthy of his heart!

On the Holy Birthday Festival in November last year, the chief of the mountain advised the Son of Heaven not to be extravagant and wasteful, and to reduce consumption! provoked the Son of Heaven to be extremely unhappy. Today, the Son of Heaven has transferred the mountain chief to the Ministry of Industry. The meaning of impatience with the mountain chief is very obvious.

On this book, the possibility of angering the Son of Yongzhi is very great!

In history, there have always been some ministers who are faced with such a choice: offend the king by writing a book, and be sad in their hearts if they don't write a book! Some choose to go to the book, and some choose to give up.

He had no intention of elevating the action of the mountain chief to the letter! It's all for the future! This choice may also be very difficult for the mountain chief. Otherwise, where would Zhang Chengjian have the opportunity to notify them to come?

The mountain chief is not a qualified political leader! But certainly an admirable, upright, courageous reader; A teacher who teaches by word and deed.

He will do his best to achieve the best result.

Zhang Chengjian sighed in his heart, glanced at Luo Junzi and the others first, and walked into the study to visit his father.

Time flies. On the evening of the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the city is full of lights. The entire capital is filled with festive lights, like a sea of lanterns.

The nine gates of the inner city of the capital used to be locked at night, and since yesterday, "Jin Wu can't help it", allowing the people to enter and exit. The noon gate of the Forbidden City is open to the public, allowing soldiers and civilians to enter and watch the sea of lights.

There are several prosperous places in the capital, such as Chongwen Gate, Qipan Street, and Inner Market. During the Lantern Festival, the most popular place is the lantern market outside Donghua Gate! At about six or seven o'clock in the evening, the lanterns on the street are full of color, making people dizzy. The sea of people watching the lanterns is like a tide, shoulder to shoulder, a prosperous scene.

The Qing Dynasty poet Yao Yuanzhi has a poem that says: The bees and butterflies among the flowers are really ecstatic, and the BMW incense car is long at night. The front lights on the twelfth floor are like fire, and the moon is like frost outside Siping Street.

Compared with the lamp market outside the Donghua Gate, the lamp market outside the noon gate is more grand and lively. At seven o'clock in the evening, the son of Yongzhi took Queen Yang, Dugu nobles, and Qingmei to the city tower. The ministers came with their families and young children.

In front of the noon gate, hundreds of lanterns are stacked to form a pattern of giant turtles in the sea, which is more than a dozen layers tall. Under the starry sky of the Lantern Festival, the lights are as bright as day!

On the city tower, the son of Yongzhi and his concubines sat in the middle. Eunuchs, palace maids, royal families, Zaifu, nobles, important ministers, Hanlin, palace guards, and brocade guards surrounded the emperor and queen. Hundreds of people were not chaotic, each admiring the lanterns.

Empress Yang is dressed in a bright yellow palace dress, with a jade face like a flower and snow-white skin in the light, graceful and luxurious. In the noise of the crowd, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, King Wu is attentive!" ”

Such a spectacular sea of lights, Empress Yang didn't know the allusion. And the Hanlin who are a little far away from the position of the emperor and queen all know the arrangement of King Wu, referring to the Aoshan Lantern Festival in the Ming Dynasty! At that time, Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Xianggong thought that the Aoshan Lantern Festival would cost a lot of money and a huge amount of money, so he canceled it. Since then, it has not been as grand as it used to be.

Zuo Shuzi and Japanese lecturer Cai Yi held on to the city wall of Wumen, and shook his head lightly in his heart: Zhang Anbo's exhortation is not for nothing! At this time, the recital of Zhang Anbo, the imperial history of the left capital, has long been spread inside and outside the court.

The Son of Yongzhi looked at the mountain of lights accumulated under the city tower and nodded with satisfaction, "Hmm." He instructed Xu Yan, the chief eunuch beside him, and said, "Go and say a word to a few middle halls, read out the holy decree, and issue a reward for Mobei and the Western Regions." ”

Later, the sound of "long live" inside and outside the noon gate is endless, like a mountain and a tsunami, a prosperous atmosphere!

But, this false prosperity!

…

…

The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is very much in line with the taste of the Son of Yongzhi, and the next day he will reward King Wu.

On the nineteenth day of the first month, the Great Dynasty Meeting. In front of the Huangji Gate, the Son of Yongzhi accepted the prisoner offering ceremony of Wei Guogong and Zuodu Yushi Qi Chi led by Shen Qian and other soldiers. The Son of Heaven once again was happy, received and rewarded all the soldiers.

Among them, the hussar general Shen Qian attracted the most attention. The ministers in front of the emperor's gate all know that he will get married tomorrow. The congratulatory voices continue! When the Son of Heaven summoned the right person, he also promised to send angels to send congratulatory gifts to the Shen Mansion tomorrow. is extremely fond of Shen Qianrong.

Shen Cheng, the king of Xincheng and the governor of the five armies, led his son Shen Qian to kneel and thank the emperor.

…

…

In the afternoon, the early spring breeze blows through the corners and curtains of the imperial study. A soft top carried the arrival of the Son of Heaven. The eunuchs and palace maids waiting here knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the see!" ”

The Son of Yongzhi was supported by Xu Yan, the chief eunuch, and walked into the imperial study, half lying on the soft couch. The young lady who was waiting in the imperial study stepped forward and served thoughtfully and meticulously.

Since the Lantern Festival, the fatigue of the days has caused most of the spirit of the Yongzhi Son to be consumed. After dispersing in the morning, he rested in the dormitory behind the Hanyuan Hall until now, and then he had the spirit to come to the imperial study.

Yongzhi Tianzi was comfortable and said, "Qingqing, read the important chapter." I listened. ”

Xu Yan held the dust whisk in his hand and lowered his head.

The green beauty wore an aqua blue close-fitting cotton skirt, outlining her graceful figure, convex and backward, with perfect curves and excellent proportions, like a mermaid. "Yes, Your Majesty!" The green beauty answered, picked up the piece on the desk and read it. The voice of the green beauty is slightly hoarse and textured. The first article is Zhang Anbo's recital.

"When the ministers hear the holy king, they will be people-oriented, respect heaven and protect the people's body. Today the people are exhausted. Ten rooms are empty. It is advisable for the Holy One to cut the expenses and be sympathetic to the feelings of the people..."

After hearing a few words, Yongzhi Tianzi was furious in his heart, patted the soft couch and said angrily: "Don't read it." Bring it to me. ”

Qingmei lowered her head and carefully handed the chapter to the son of Yongzhi.

The Son of Yongzhi swept the chapter, saw Zhang Anbo's name, and immediately broke out, threw the chapter on the ground, and scolded angrily with a "snap": "This old thing!" I'm dying, what's wrong with the fun? Noise in my ears every day! Transfer him to the Ministry of Works, and he still doesn't relent! Do you really think I don't kill people? ”

The Son of Heaven was extremely angry, and the eunuchs and palace maids inside and outside the imperial study all knelt down. No one dared to speak out! The pins are falling all over the field.

Yongzhi Tianzi gasped for breath, and it took about a cup of tea to stabilize his emotions, but his anger did not subside, his face was calm, and he asked: "What is the opinion of the Military Aircraft Department?" He took the piece that Qingmei picked up from the ground, and on it was Wei Hong's ticket: order him to give it to the chariot and horse.

On the fifteenth day of the first month, the mountain chief went to the book, and the son of Yongzhi only saw it now, and it was the Wei scholar who helped press it for two days. Otherwise, two days ago, the Son of Heaven was on the rise, and when he saw this recital, his mood can be imagined.

The Son of Yongzhi was very comfortable at the Lantern Festival and today's court meeting, but afterwards he saw Zhang Anbo's exhortation and felt like eating a fly. Very annoyed! With a sneer on his aging face, he said undoubtedly: "Approval: Send Zhang Anbo to prison and make Yousi ask for guilt." ”

Zhang Anbo, you want the reputation of the minister, right? Okay, I'll give it to you! was convicted for his words, did the doctor celebrate in the Ming Dynasty? Hehe, when I advise me, the truth is set one by one, what about myself? Don't make a mistake for me!

…

…

On the nineteenth day of the first month of the twenty-first year of Yongzhi, the emperor of Yongzhi decreed that Zhang Anbo, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, would be imprisoned. The wind is surging in Beijing!
