Chapter 278: The Summoning (Part II)
Zhao Zhen pointed to the brocade stool and said with a pleasant face: "Sit down, Su Jin." ”
Su Jin said according to Yan Shu's instructions in advance: "The grass people don't dare, how can there be a grass people's seat in front of the saint." ”
Zhao Zhen said: "It's just you and me today, don't make some red tape, sit down and talk, I want to have a good chat with you." ”
Su Jin knew that it would be too much hypocrisy, so he sat down on the side according to his words, raised his head slightly and secretly looked at Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen had a fair complexion, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, about thirty to forty years old, he had been pampered in the deep palace hall for a long time, and his body revealed an unhealthy sense of fragility.
Su Jinxin said: This is the emperor, he looks like he has one nose and two eyes, and he is no different from other people, if he is not from the royal family, I am afraid he will only look like a scholar.
Zhao Zhen also had a lot of interesting Su Jin, there was always a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, as soon as the two made eye contact, Su Jin keenly felt that there seemed to be the power to perceive everything in that gaze, and he panicked in his heart, and hurriedly looked away.
Zhao Zhen smiled, picked up a few pieces of paper on the case, and trembled: "Su Jin, you are the first time to meet me, does it match the image in your mind?" ”
Su Jin said: "The grass people never thought that they could see the saint, and they never dared to think about the dragon face of the saint, even now, the grass people feel like they are in a dream. ”
Su Jin is not a lie, a thousand years later, he came to see the emperor of the Song Dynasty in a daze, this thing is really inexplicable except for dreaming.
"Hehe, I believe you are telling the truth, after all, it is not easy for ordinary people to see me, they can only look at my portrait, but that portrait is dull and boring, how can it be compared with a living person."
"What the emperor said is that how can the portrait be compared with the real person, and the painting is also the appearance, how can the emperor's spirit and spirit be painted."
For example, a few months ago, I read a few poems sent by Yan Aiqing, and Master Yan said that these words were written by a sixteen-year-old businessman named Su Jin, and I was very unconvinced; Those words are sophisticated and deep, and the meaning is timeless, and it seems to me that I can't do it without considerable experience and knowledge, but the real person I see you today really makes me have a different feeling, your whole body has an aura, and there is a temperament that is different from others, and there is a poetry and calligraphy in your belly, it seems that my previous doubts were wrong. ”
Su Jin hurriedly said: "The emperor praises me, the grass people are just a scholar, and they have written a few graffiti works, how can they be worthy of the holy eye, guilty, guilty." ”
Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "Talent is not arrogant, it is indeed rare, compared to you, some people are far behind, this dynasty has many talented children, there are some people who write poems and fill in the lyrics, but there are always some people who are proud of their talents and refuse to be down-to-earth; The talents given by God are not used for hypocrisy, but for Anbang to assist the country to protect my great Song Dynasty and the mountains forever, I don't like those who have some talents and are proud of themselves, but fortunately Su Jin, you are not that kind of person. ”
Su Jin understood who Zhao Zhen was talking about, not to mention anything else, that Mr. Liu Sanbian was probably already sneezing.
"When the emperor said this, the grass people were embarrassed."
Zhao Zhen smiled, put down the poem, put his hands on his lower abdomen and looked at Su Jin, and said quietly: "Do you know why I want to see you?" ”
Su Jin lowered his head and said: "Lord Yan told the grass people that it was for the grass people to donate money and raise food. ”
Zhao Zhen said: "This is a big thing, naturally it is necessary to brainstorm, you can put forward ideas, there must be a solution, I naturally have to ask for advice; But before I do that, I have one more thing to ask you. ”
Su Jinxin said: I came, I really wanted to ask about that matter.
"Your Majesty, please ask, the grass people know everything."
"You used to study at Yingtian Academy, didn't you?"
"Back to the emperor, in July, I was recommended by Lord Bao to study at Yingtian Academy."
"Oh, did Bao Zheng recommend it? Where were you before that? ”
"Back to the saint, before, the grass people were in Luzhou, and the family had some industries, and the father died early, so the grass people helped the mother to take care of the family business."
"Why did you think of studying?"
"Your Majesty, how to answer this question for the grass people, but as long as I am the people of the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that there is no one who does not want to enter the imperial examination to serve the imperial court and glorify the ancestors; Although the grass people are stupid, they don't want to be businessmen for the rest of their lives. ”
"Well, I asked some questions, but your answers are not true, and I am afraid that it is a little reluctant to serve the imperial court."
Su Jin Zhengse said: "Although the grass people are from the basil, but the parents have also taught them to write poems and articles since childhood, read the books of the sages, how can they not follow the line of the sages, the grass people are the heart of the great Song Dynasty Jingzhong, the sun can be learned, the heaven and the earth can be expressed, and the grass people are willing to ......."
"Alright, alright, I'm convinced." Zhao Zhen interrupted Su Jin's generous statement, his brows furrowed slightly.
Su Jinxin said: Are you willing to shout slogans when Lao Tzu? If I don't say that, you're not even more upset.
Zhao Zhen stood up and walked a few steps in the room, as if thinking about something, Su Jin was silent and waited for him to speak, and the room suddenly fell silent.
"Grandpa Tai asked me to dream with you, but is there such a thing?" Zhao Zhen suddenly stopped and asked, his voice revealing a hint of metallic coldness.
Su Jin's heart sank, and he hurriedly got up and replied, "Back to the emperor, it's true." ”
"Bold! Do you know what the consequences of lying in front of me will be? Zhao Zhen suddenly turned his face and shouted loudly with a stern face.
Su Jin was surprised, this Zhao Zhen was shocked, what is this doing? Could it be that he knew about pretending to be Taizu's dream? Impossible, although Su Jin knew that the emperor had many eyes and ears, and probably he could know almost everything he wanted to know, but he never mentioned this matter to anyone, and even the closest people around him never knew that the dream was fake, how did Zhao Zhen know?
Su Jin thought about it quickly, he didn't know which link went wrong, and Zhao Zhen guessed that it was cheating, but in any case, this matter could not be admitted, unless the emperor came up with ironclad evidence, Su Jin decided to fight to the end.
"Your Majesty, where do you start with this? This matter is absolutely true, how dare the grass people lie on this matter; Although the lives of grass people are not valuable, they are not guilty of making jokes with their heads. ”
"Hmph, you are still quibbling, I came to ask you, you are a student, you have neither an official body nor a great career, but you have made a few good words, when the great grandfather was buried, you still don't know where you are; Why does Grandpa Tai want to dream with you? Tell me, "What is the reason?" ”
When Su Jin heard this, he put most of his heart in his heart, Zhao Zhen had no real evidence, he just felt suspicious and scared himself.
At the moment, he said confidently: "The emperor can't answer this question, who does the grandfather love to dream is the meaning of the grandfather, the grass people can't know why it's me, the grass people are also extremely confused about this, if the emperor knows, please tell the grass people, solve the confusion of the grass people." ”
"What a slippery man, are you a fool? How can the grandfather dream find a commoner like you, where the emperor's heroic spirit appears, there must be an auspicious omen from the sky, when the grandfather dreamed of the king of Qi, the day was surging, lightning and thunder, this is the emperor's dream; But you were calm that day, and there was nothing unusual in the entire Ying Tianfu, and on the second day, you claimed that Taizu had a dream, don't you think it's a little ridiculous? ”
Su Jin saw Zhao Zhen baring his teeth and shouting angrily, as if he was angry, but Su Jin knew that Zhao Zhen was further scaring himself; When it comes to credentials, Zhao Zhen will only talk about these ethereal things, which shows that he is using this to attack his heart at all, how can Su Jin be fooled.
"Your Majesty, the grass people never know what the emperor's signs are, and the emperor insists on lying if he says that there is no such abnormality, so what do you want the grass people to answer? directly dragged the grass people out and beheaded them; If you really want to mention the abnormal situation, the evening of the day is the moon and the stars are scarce, and the second day there will be lightning and thunder, which is rare on the day of autumn, and I don't know if it is an abnormality; However, the grass people thought that these were not the main things, how could the emperor explain the three contents of the oath tablet that the grandfather told the grass people in his dream? ”
"That content, maybe someone revealed it to you, but you don't know, after all, there are many people who know the content of the oath monument, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be known to outsiders."
"If the emperor says so, the grass people will be speechless, I am just a grass mustard people, the emperor is more and more guilty of me, why do you need to find some untenable reasons, it really makes the grass people chill."
Zhao Zhen was furious, stretched out his hand and pointed at the tip of Su Jin's nose and said, "Are you talking to me?" ”
Su Jin went out and said word by word: "Exactly, I can say whatever I think in my heart, but there are no people who have a lot of tricks and tricks." ”
"You...... Are you trying to force me to do something to you? ”
"If the emperor is not afraid of the grandfather's blame, please do it, whether the grass people can know the content of the oath tablet, the emperor knows better than anyone else, others have a pair of eyes, but the emperor has thousands of pairs of eyes, the grass people don't believe that anything can escape your ears and eyes, today the emperor insists on taking down the grass people, should have taken some plausible evidence, such speculation, it really can't teach people."
Zhao Zhen glared at Su Jin angrily, his chest rose and fell, his eyes were sharp, as if he saw Su Jin's heart, Su Jin was not to be outdone, he looked at him stubbornly with his neck, but his heart was beating wildly.
The corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth moved, and he said coldly: "Someone's coming......"
Su Jin banged in his head, and said in his heart: "It's over, I really this Zhao Zhen." ”
