There is a saying that the tiger does not bite people, and the tiger poison does not eat children, Emperor Jiajing couldn't make a decision with his only grandson after all, so he said slowly: "Today is the New Year's New Year, bring my grandson, IJ, to Ba O."

Zhu Zaizhen almost went crazy with joy, and hurriedly ordered to go down and let people send his tiger head, Zhu! His face was as pale as dirt, he knew that if he didn't get it right, he would lose in this game, but at this time, he couldn't ask Master Gao and Master Shen for help, so he could only sit there without a master, looking at Zhu Zaizhen's triumphant appearance. "Let's go and take a rest", Jiajing waved his hand lightly and said, "I'll accompany me to the court later." The two hurriedly got up and said respectfully: "Erchen obeys the order." ”

At this time, the sky outside the hall has not yet dawned, but the relevant guards, honor guards, and musicians of the ceremony have already been in place the emperor's pro-army brocade guards, under the leadership of Zhu Da, the display of the halo book, the guard of honor in the Dan Majesty and the Dan Qi, the Ming Fan in the palace, and the train in the Dan Qi. The Han generals dressed in golden armor, holding a golden gourd axe and an emperor's dragon banner lined up from the main hall to the noon gate. There are also four whip-ringers holding the long whip of Zhangyu, two on the left and two on the left and right in the square in front of the palace, all facing north; The bands of the Teaching Workshop Division are also facing north, ready on the east and west sides of His Majesty.

The shepherd's steeds, rhinoceros, and elephants were also brought out to the south of the Wenlou and Wulou on both sides of the Huangji Palace.

Si Chenlang, who specializes in telling the time, is located in the east of the inner road; The two correctors who specialize in correcting the words and deeds of hundreds of officials came to the north of Danqi; The two inner praisers are located in the palace, and the two outer praises are located in the north of the Danqi, and the officials such as the transmission system and the propaganda table are also standing in their own places. At the beginning of the hour, the thick and melodious bells and drums sounded on the Wufeng Tower, and the noon door slowly opened.

A drummer of Jiaofang Temple, the first to beat the Jin drum on the side of Fengxianmen, he first hit the drum frame, and then use the double air to continuously beat the rest assured, a heavy blow and a light hit, the rhythm from slow to fast and then from fast to slow, the drum also from weak to strong, and then from strong to weak. It is not until another musician hits the big bell on the other side that the drum sound ends, which is called the first strict drum.

At this time, the officials and princes had already gathered outside the noon gate, their clothes were different from usual, they wore a beam crown on their heads, there were no patches on their chests, and they were all wearing red red Luo clothes, green red Luo clothes, red Luo knees, white socks and black shoes. However, it is still possible to distinguish the grade from the leather belt and the ribbon JL, but the most conspicuous thing is the number of beams of the beam crown, one male crown and eight beams, Hou and Bo seven beams, and the crown is newly added with pheasant tail; The seven beams of the horse do not use pheasant tails; One product and seven beams; two products and six beams; three products and five beams; Four products and four beams; Five products and three beams, all the officials present are above five grades, so the front uses ivory wat. When he heard the drum Chuyan, "The princes and officials wearing official court clothes began to line up outside the noon gate.

After a while, the drums sounded again, but the drums, bells, and the head and tail were changed to two sounds, and the second time all the personnel were notified that they must be dignified. Hearing the encouragement, the hundred officials entered from the left and right doors, came to the east and west of Danqi, and stood solemnly facing the north.

Then the drum sounded again, this time it became three sounds, heard the drum three strict, Li Chunfang, who served as a deacon, came to the middle pole hall, Jiajing had already put on a good uniform and dragon crown here, and Li Chunfang, who was sitting on the throne of the main hall, bowed to the emperor five times, and then made three buckles to the two princes, and invited the emperor to come to the emperor's palace.

Huang Jin stretched out his voice and shouted: "The emperor starts to drive the ......" The Teaching Workshop Division began to play the Zhonghe music, "The official of the Shangbao Division held the imperial seal and sold the ∫ in front of the emperor, followed behind the driver, and walked to the front hall.

When Jiajing sat upright on the Imperial Palace, the two princes stood under the imperial steps, the bright fan in the hall slowly opened, the bead curtain slowly rolled up, and the officials of Shang Baosi placed the imperial seal on the treasure case, neutralizing the music, and stopped.

The four whippers who stood at the four corners of the Danqi shook the long whip with all their might, making a neat and loud snap, snap, and sound, which made people tense all over. As soon as the whipping stopped, the two foreign officials shouted: "Shift arrangement!" The hundred officials standing in the Danqi quickly changed into a formation to enter the hall, and soon they were neatly arranged.

The celebrant shouted again: "Bow! Shao music sounded. Hundreds of officials bowed to the emperor in the main hall.

Then walked into the congratulatory table, in the sound of music, the four gave things, carrying a big box covered with red cloth, came to the door of the main hall, and kowtowed: "Gu Guanchen, I meet Zhengdan, Sanyang Kaitai, everything is salty and new." Congratulations to His Majesty the Emperor, Yingqian Nahu, Fengtian Yongchang! The hundred officials behind him also bowed to the emperor four times.

At this time, Jiajing said: "The celebration of the end of the performance is the same as Qing." Then four eunuchs came out, took the box containing the congratulatory watch of the hundred officials and entered the hall, and the music gradually stopped, and the hundred officials got up at the same time.

Then the deacon Li Chunfang knelt in front of the emperor to ask for his will, the emperor's New Year's speech was naturally prepared long ago, handed over by Huang Jin to the herald, and then the herald went out of the east gate of the hall and came to the front of His Majesty Dan, on behalf of the emperor to read the New Year's speech to the subjects, nothing more than a good job last year, thank God for blessing; Keep working hard this year, I hope God willing, and so on, lengthy and gorgeous, and annoying.

Hundreds of officials naturally knelt down to listen, and some elderly officials and ministers were already physically exhausted in this matter, and their knees were sore, and they really wanted to kneel. I don't know how to hold on until the salute officer shouts: "Mountain hoo! Reflexively, he raised his hands above his head and shouted "Hurray!" Banzai! Hooray! At this time, everyone present must echo in unison, the ground shakes, the aftermath lingers, and it lasts for a long time. Then the hundred officials got up and continued the lengthy and ...... Shen saw that Xu Ge's snot came out.

On the square in front of the Imperial Palace, when all the adults were exhausted and struggling to support, a sudden sound sounded. Wow wow ten ten cry) many adults who are in a sense of joy squirt on the spot) heart said = who is this time? Tossed rejuvenation? Then they followed the prestige, and when they saw it, it turned out to be a baby.

I saw a woman dressed as a princess, accompanied by two eunuchs, kneeling under His Majesty Dan with a baby in her arms, and all the adults couldn't help but be surprised, like this New Year's Day ceremony, women and children are not allowed to participate, how could the guards let them in?

But there are also people who understand the market, as soon as they saw the woman's dress and the color of the swaddling clothes in their arms, they realized that it must be Princess Jing and his prince, and suddenly woke up, it seems that a good show has been staged.

I heard the eunuch's elongated voice from the main hall and said, "Princess Xuanjing brought Prince Jing into the palace!" ”

The eunuch took the swaddling clothes, Princess Jing got up, and then carefully returned to the child...... Although this child is not her own, it is related to whether she can be a mother in the future, so she completely regards it as her own, showing the love that a mother should have.

Stepping into the golden palace, Princess Jing knelt in front of the imperial steps with the child in her arms, saying long live her father, and then heard a cold voice say: "Zaizhen, bring the child to me to see." King Jing hurriedly went over to take the child, held it in his hand, and let him face Jiajing.

When Jiajing looked at the child, he could see his own appearance between his eyebrows, and he couldn't help but show his kindness, and stretched out his hand and said, "Show me." ”

King Jing hurriedly put his tiger head over, Jiajing stretched out his hand, grabbed the doll like a fish, the child has not yet reached the age of recognition, but he caught it painfully, then he cried, so that Emperor Jiajing was not embarrassed, and quickly sent the child back to King Jing's hands, and said: "This child ...... I'm crying so hard. King Jing said: "It's good to have strength, and only when you have strength can you grow into a man." ”

Jiajing was amused by him, nodded and said, "Yes, you are meritorious, let's say, what reward do you want?" ”

King Jing said repeatedly: "Don't reward the son, the son-in-law asks the father to give the tiger head a name." Yuan Wei had already instructed him before he came, he didn't want anything else, as long as he gave his name at the New Year's Day ceremony, he would make a fortune.

"Okay......" Jiajing said, "My Emperor Taizu has already given the next generation a word for future generations,' Gao Zhan Qi sees you, and Hou Zai Yi Changyou; Ci and Yi Bozhong, Jian Jingdi Xianyou "Your generation, the second word of this child's name is naturally 'Yi, it's gone; As for the third word, fire, earth, gold, water and wood, you are next to the word earth, born of gold, and the child should be next to the word gold. This is in line with Mr. Zhu Yuanzhang's spirit of thinking about his children and grandchildren, and wanting to finish the work of his children and grandchildren......

It turned out that after Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, because he himself had twenty-six sons, he realized that according to the traditional one-generation one-word ranking method, there must be the same name among the descendants, so he set a generation table for each of the twenty-six sons, each table has twenty characters, starting from his grandson, and is used as the second word of the name in turn; As for the third word, there are also regulations, in the order of fire, earth, gold, water and wood, and then named after the side, and the cycle repeats.

For example, the crown prince Zhu Biao's family is Yunwen Zunzu's "Qinwu Dajun wins, the way is auspicious, and the teacher is good at using Sheng" is the emperor when he hears it, and then his son is called Zhu Yunji: his grandson is called Zhu Wengui. But unfortunately, after the fire was born into the earth, it was never born, because Zhu Di took the position of his nephew, so the twenty characters of Zhu Di's family became the imperial line...... Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qiyu, Zhu Jianshen, Zhu Youzhang, Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houyan...... Until this generation of Zhu Zai /! , Zhu Zaizhen, all in strict accordance with the ancestral teachings.

Now, Zhu Zaizhen's turn to be the son, naturally Zhu Yi, add a word next to the gold letter. Although Zhu Di also has a lot of sons, there are already a lot of Yi and characters in the clan, and they have already accounted for a lot of words, but this is difficult for Emperor Jiajing, I saw him show three coins from his sleeve...... Sure enough, he deserved to be the Daojun Emperor, and he didn't forget his professional tools when he put on the dragon robe...... I took a lesson casually, and when I saw that it was a Gen and a hexagram, I said: "Then use Gen characters and go with gold characters." ”

"Add a Gen ...... next to the word gold" Although he doesn't learn and has no skills, Zhu Zaizhen also knows what this word reads, so he was unhappy at the time, and his heart said Okay, I was originally gold, and I was directly reduced to silver.

"Zhu Yiyinten" Jiajing was not good, his face was self-conscious = "Not bad, not bad!" This is the golden rule, and no one can change it. No matter how unwilling Zhu Zaizhen is, he can only kowtow and thank him......

named the doll, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, there must be something to reward for the New Year, Jiajing couldn't think of it for a while, so he said casually: "How should I reward this little grandson?" ”

In fact, the emperor just said it casually, but Zhu Zaizhen was excited when he heard this, and immediately had an idea that since the name JL had fallen off, he had to earn it back in rewarding JL. Gold and silver are priceless, jade is priceless, and what is more expensive than gold is jade, and the world is the most valuable

Even if the water from all over the world is poured out, it can't be extinguished by His Royal Highness King Jing's incomparable desire for that thing.

Zhu Zaizhen knew that under such circumstances, the emperor would never refuse this request. The heart said that the opportunity must not be lost and never come again, there is no regret medicine sold in the world, and he immediately put Yuan Wei's advice behind him, and said loudly: "Please ask my father to reward the topaz Ruyi to the tiger head...... Oh no, Yiyin pin pat o

Jiajing's face was a little ugly, and he said in his heart that he was going to be coerced by a fart child? Look at the uncompetitive Zhu Zai/" Jiajing secretly scolded 'stupid' but the dignity of the supreme was there, and he still nodded and said: "Chen Hong, where is Ruyi now?" ”

Chen Hong thought for a long time before saying, "The slave maid is in the inner treasury." "He took Yu Ruyi that time, and handed it over to the eunuch of Suitang, and then he was beaten half to death, locked up for a month, and just released it a few days ago, and completely forgot about that thing, and he hasn't checked it yet." Go get it. Jiajing ordered. Be. Chen Hong hurriedly limped out, although Xiyuan and the Imperial City are only separated by a wall, there is also a distance between the boss.

So Princess Jing took Zhu Yiyin to the side and waited for the reward, and then the ceremony continued...... If it was in the Taizu Chengzu period, the emperor feasted the ministers in the palace, but now the Ming treasury is empty, and this benefit has also been reduced, just give a cup of spring wine, a bowl of water and snacks, and don't even give some vinegar, the reason is 'to save money,'.

But the hundred officials were already exhausted, and they just wanted to end this tedious ceremony quickly, go home to drill a certain nest, and have a good night's sleep; Moreover, in this cold winter wax moon, the north wind is howling, standing on the empty square in front of the palace to drink cold wine and eat cold dumplings, it is not so much enjoyment, but rather suffering...... Shen saw that Zhang Juzheng's snot also came down......

Everyone ate three or two bites until their stomachs were cold, and then kowtowed to thank them, and all the rituals were completed. But they can't go home yet, because Chen Hong hasn't taken the Ruyi back, so everyone can only wait stupidly in the cold wind. Shen was the only one alone, and there was faint sweat on his forehead. Gao Gong on the side asked in a low voice, "Jiangnan, why are you still hot?" Shen wiped his forehead and whispered: "I'm sweating......

"Well, so am I." Gao Gong sighed: "I really don't know what to do." "Today's change in Jiajing is too sudden, and King Jing firmly seized the opportunity, and there was a decisive posture, which made his heart keep sinking, but there was no way at all." Alas, let's see. Shen shook his head, how dare he say one more word. Gao Gong also knew that this was not the place to speak, so he also stopped talking.

After waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, I finally saw Chen Hong appear sweating profusely, only to see that his face was sallow, dragging a wounded leg, and he didn't care about etiquette, so he entered the palace, went up the imperial steps, and knelt in Jiajing's ear, whispering something.

Jiajing's face changed when he heard this, his long eyebrows kept shaking, and the expression on his face changed dramatically, looking at Zhu Yiyin, and then at Zhu Zaizhen, he finally took a deep breath and said: "I know, you step back first and wait for Chen Hong to retreat, Jiajing slowly said to Zhu Zaizhen: "Zhen'er, change things, that Ruyi is too heavy, I'm afraid of pressing the child." "I'm not afraid of eleven," Zhu Zhen saw that something had gone wrong again, and he was in a hurry) actually responded="I'll take it for him." ”

"Bastard!" Jiajing straightened his face and shouted in a low voice: "Dare to bargain with me? Is there really nothing to fear? ”

Frightened, Zaizhen quickly knelt down, not daring to shout.

"Hum ten" Jiajing's face softened slightly) = "I have a favorite night pearl, so let's play with Yiyin." Then he beckoned, Chen Hong came over and handed a small box to the emperor tremblingly. Jiajing opened it and saw that it was indeed a bead the size of a pigeon's egg, and he could still hold it, so he handed it to Zhu Yiyin and said, "Oh, take it." "Do you want food?" Zhu Zaizhen took it sullenly, and even thanked him very reluctantly.

At the end of the ceremony, the ministers sent off the emperor and then withdrew from the palace. When I went out, no one asked for order, and the ministers gathered in groups of three or five, all talking about what had just happened, why did they obviously go to get the wish, but finally brought the night pearl? Is it because the emperor has changed his hexagram, or is there something else hidden? This puzzling scene greatly stimulated the interest of the ministers, and everyone discussed this matter with great interest regardless of fatigue...... Some people say that the emperor may be reluctant, some say that the wishful thinking may be gone, and some people say that the beads are more meaningful, because the surname of the country is 'Zhu, well, this is obviously King Jing's sworn friend...... There is everything that is said, but there is no guessing the truth. And Shen and Xu Wei, the only two who knew the truth, didn't dare to say it even if they were killed. Yes, the wishful thinking has been broken into three parts, how can it be rewarded? Shen looked back at the Imperial Palace, and said in his heart that he hadn't found out until now, but he shouldn't have suspected me?
