Chapter 6 The Emperor's Sister Returns to the Sister (4)
"But what did the fifth uncle tell you? Since you came back, you have been uneasy."
"Uncle Fifth said I don't understand the art of controlling people and it is difficult to be competent for the position of queen."
Zheng's eyelashes trembled slightly when he heard this, and finally smiled: "In theory, the fifth uncle is your teacher, and my mother shouldn't refute him, but Wanwan and the queen don't have to be good at controlling people."
Xie Changyan opened his eyes wide.
"Emperor Yi returns to his sister, his king's sleeve is not as good as his sister's sleeve. How long does the moon look? - What does it mean when you are late or late?"
"I know. It's about King Zhou's father who married his sister to King Wen of Zhou. The queen's clothes were simple and simple, and they were not as gorgeous as those who were dowry."
"Yes. Therefore, this hexagram says that when you are a wife, don't be flattering and please, and don't be generous and self-control. Only by being gentle and upright and being modest are the way for the queen."
Xie Changyan thought something.
"Since the Qin Dynasty, although the people have to respect the empress, there can be a queen with a reputation passed down from generation to generation. However, the two of them: Dou Yifang, the descendant of Emperor Wen of Han, and Yin Lihua, the descendant of Emperor Guangwu of Han. Why? It is because they are generous and kind and upright." Zheng said that he simply took off his shoes and leaned on his daughter with him. "Lu, after Emperor Gaozu, was in power again and was in power for 16 years. Is there no strategy? Are you wise? How do future generations say about her?"
"I am determined to be patient and be suspicious, and I am willing to mourn my god."
"Yes. Not to mention the descendants, even her husband is tired of her. Her son even said the heart-breaking words of 'this is not done by human beings'. Wanwan thinks, is she happy in this life?"
Xie Changyan shook his head.
"I married into the Xie family when I was fifteen. Your father was always there and he had not seen him once every few years. If I had used my strategy, I could have moved to Binzhou to meet him, but I respected him for his loyalty and defended the country, and could not bear to be tainted by his own selfishness. In this way, five years have passed."
Xie Changyan was stunned, and in an instant, a lot of emotions surged in his heart.
Zheng's face was calm and gentle: "Your father died unfortunately, and the patriarch allowed me to remarry, but I refused. Why?"
Xie Changyan's eyes were slightly red: "Mom is for her daughter..."
"It's for you and for integrity. Yes, I really don't plan and don't bother to plan. But what I did has made the people of my tribe respect, praise and support for the past twelve years, so that you can grow up safely and smoothly without worries about food and clothing." Zheng touched Xie Changyan's hair and sighed, "My son, for life, how can you calculate everything? As long as you are determined by the Tao, follow the virtues, and benevolence, why fear others?"
Xie Changyan Ru was enlightened and stood up and knelt down: "My daughter has realized it, Xie's mother taught me."
"I've really realized it?"
"Yes, Uncle Fifth's chess class, oh no, the art class, my daughter will listen carefully and learn carefully, like a boating boat in the sea, letting him rush to the sky, I have a needle to stabilize the sea in my heart."
The fire swayed, reflecting Xie Changyan's eyes, shining brightly.
The snow is melting and the wind is warm, and the grass is growing and the birds are flying.
On March 3, when the peony flowers bloomed, Xie Changyan grew one year older.
On this day, the angel of the King of Yan also arrived in Yinzhou.
When Xie Changyan came to the reception hall with Zheng, Xie Huaiyong was entertaining angels to serve tea. When Xie Changyan saw it, he was shocked-
I saw him wearing a round-necked, narrow-sleeved robe, holding a teacup in a pair of round and fat hands. As soon as he drank the tea, the cup covered most of his face, revealing only a pair of big black eyes, which were extremely agile.
"So young!" This was the first thought in Xie Changyan's mind.
"He looks younger than me, and Feiyi is a fifth-rank robe. He is so young and is a fifth-rank official?" This is Xie Changyan's second thought.
"I heard that there was a pair of favored twin eunuchs beside His Majesty, named Ruyi Jixiang. Isn't this one?" Xie Changyan was thinking this way, and when Xie Huaiyong turned to himself, "Changyan, this is Ruyi's father-in-law around His Majesty, come to read the imperial edict."
It's really him!
Ruyi put the teacup back on the table, revealing her complete face, with bright eyes and white teeth, and pink and jade-like clothes. So the rumors about the King of Yan's good boyhood emerged in her mind again.
Xie Changyan quickly lowered his eyebrows and kept his eyes away from showing his true emotions on his face.
Compared to her restraint, Ruyi was obviously much more presumptuous. He looked Xie Changyan from beginning to end, his eyes were quite strange, as if he was disdainful. Xie Changyan bowed to him, and he also took it arrogantly and did not return the gift.
Then, he took out a roll of yellow silk from his sleeve and recited it loudly: "Xie Changyan listened to the order - the foundation of weathering must be in charge... Well, husband, help! Right, the foundation of human relations is the first, heavy, heavy... Kunyi. This is the positioning of the heaven and earth, and the emperor often comes from. Since you are the queen, you should follow Shuyuan's..."
Xie Zhiwei, who was standing beside him, couldn't stand it and whispered: "Yi."
Ruyi gave him a blank look and continued to recite: "Yi, I am a ritual of mountains and rivers. Therefore, I chose He Gong as your teacher and went to Beijing to teach you this day. I respect this."
Xie Changyan was both amused and shocked. He laughed that the angel couldn't even recognize the words on the imperial edict; he was shocked that he followed His Majesty's meaning and asked her to go to Beijing immediately and found her a teacher. Mr. He, who is Mr. He?
Xie Huaiyong's expression on his face was very solemn. He invited Ruyi to the side and said, "Dude-in-law, please give me some advice. Why did Your Majesty want Changyan to enter Beijing now?"
Ruyi received the imperial edict in disappointment and refused to answer in anger.
Xie Zhiwei handed over a brocade box, and Xie Huaiyong stuffed the box into Ruyi's hand: "There are no good things in Yinzhou, and there is nothing good to do. The pearls produced under the foggy reef are quite pleasing to the eye. Please accept them with a smile."
Ruyi pushed the box back intact: "Where can I guess your Majesty's thoughts? Just follow the order."
Xie Huaiyong had no choice but to give up.
Ruyi did not leave much, and left after the imperial edict was announced. When she left, she used that kind of judging, staring at Xie Changyan with a slightly disdainful look, which made Xie Changyan feel very uncomfortable.
After the group of angels left, Xie Huaiyong was silent for a while before looking up at Xie Changyan: "Although it was two years earlier than expected, it would be better to get familiar with Yujing earlier. And you can be the master of He Gong, Changyan, this is your fortune."
"Uncle Fifth, who is Mr. He?"
Before Xie Huaiyong answered, Zheng said anxiously: "Although He Gong is very talented, he is not very popular. He will coach the emperor and empress, but it is not consistent with the etiquette and law."
Xie Changyan was even more curious and grabbed her sleeve and said, "Who is he, his mother?"
Zheng hesitated for a moment and sighed: "He is Feng Xiaoya, the son of Prime Minister Feng."
"Ah." Xie Changyan's "Ah" was not for Feng Xiaoya, but for Prime Minister Feng. If we talk about who is the most famous person in Yan State, it was Feng Letian, the important minister of the two dynasties. He was the prime minister of the Emperor when the Emperor of the Supreme Emperor. After the Emperor became a monk, he worked diligently to assist the new emperor Zhanghua, rectifying border defenses, rectifying the administration of officials, and continuing the peaceful and prosperous era. The thing he talked about most by the people was that he did not allow disciples in the clan to become officials. Therefore, there was no second person in the Feng family in court, which was considered a rare honesty.
Seeing that his daughter was curious, Zheng continued, "Prime Minister Feng is only one son, with congenital deficiency and suffering from bone fusion as soon as he was born."
“What is osteoth fusion?”
"It means that the bones cannot grow normally. As they grow older, their joints gradually become swollen, and there are varying degrees of bending and hyperplasia, making it difficult to move and are in pain all the time."
Xie Changyan was stunned: "That Feng Xiaoya is now..."
"When he was born, the doctor decided that he would not live to be ten years old, and when he was ten years old, he was in danger. When the people heard that something happened to the Prime Minister's only son, they all brought the Kongming lantern to Xingchuan at the Ice Sculpture Festival on December 12 to pray for him. That night, as many as a thousand people were gone."
Xie Changyan was almost fascinated by hearing this.
"It's amazing, he really survived. Lord Feng also found a martial arts master to teach him martial arts. This different approach has made him a good kung fu, and he has lived until now - at the age of twenty."
"Twenty years old? That's really a little young as my teacher..."
"Maybe it's because he has seen through life and death and enjoyed time..." Zheng said this and was filled with emotion. "His plants and trees are all collected in the world. There is a proverb circulating in Yujing: 'Crane can close the window quickly, girls should not look at it. Look at it, ah, you have to leave your parents."
Xie Changyan enjoyed "puchi".
Zheng was full of sorrow: "It is to warn young girls to stay away from him and not be taken by him and taken to the grass and wood residence. How can such a person be your teacher and face you day and night?"
Xie Changyan smiled again.
"So, in order to prevent rumors, I would like to ask the fifth uncle to write to His Majesty and ask for a change of teacher." After Zheng said this, he bowed deeply.
Xie Huaiyong thought about it and looked at Xie Changyan: "Changyan, what do you think?"
Xie Changyan said: "What kind of person do you think Your Majesty is?"
Zheng was stunned and replied, "Your Majesty is a talented man and has a strategic plan. He is a wise ruler who is unparalleled."
"So my mother thinks that such a wise ruler would not know how bad this person is, and would ignore the face of the palace, make misconduct and leave trouble?"
Zheng was stunned.
Xie Changyan held her hand and said, "If I noticed that this person was inappropriate after the lecture, I would just say it, and it would be fine. At this moment, based on rumors alone, I would be uneasy and let the fifth uncle pass the letter. What will Your Majesty look at me? How will the He Guild look at me? Then I will go to Yujing and be alone, and I am disgusted by Your Majesty and He Gong, so how can I deal with it?"
Zheng's face turned pale, and when he looked at Xie Changyan again, there was a lot of shock.
Xie Changyan stood with a smile, his black and bright eyes filled with colorful light on his tender face. At first glance, it seemed to be no different from half a year ago. After closer inspection, he grew a lot.
