Wanchun Hall is located to the east of Ganlu Hall and is the queen's bedroom. The Zhengzheng Hall in front is where the queen meets with the imperial concubine. Banquets for the queen to entertain female guests are usually held in the Lizheng Hall.
The north-south depth of Wanchun Hall and Zhengzheng Hall are exactly the same as that of Ganlu Hall and Zhonghua Hall, but the east-west width is only one-third of Ganlu Hall and Zhonghua Hall.
It was dark at night, the dining hall of Wanchun Palace was brightly lit, and the maids and chamberlains were serving with bowed heads.
On the table, there are various dishes.
Speaking of which, although Yang Guang was not as diligent and frugal as the late emperor, he was not very particular about food. He had three meals a day, only eight dishes and two soups, a combination of meat and vegetables, fruits and vegetables.
The elegant Queen Xiao is sitting on the couch next to the table. Queen Xiao is thirty-nine years old this year. She has a beautiful appearance. Time seems to be particularly gentle to her. There are no wrinkles on her brows or corners of her eyes. Even her figure is slim. She was so graceful that she didn't even look like she had given birth to several children.
She wore a light yellow palace dress with a slender waist and high waist, which highlighted her exquisite and graceful figure. Under her slender and white neck, her collarbones were as delicate as jade, and her tall breasts were visible under her tube top.
Her lush black hair was held up high in a woman's bun, with a golden hairpin pinned to her head, which reflected a face as beautiful as a peach. Even without any powder, it was difficult to hide her peerless beauty. And between the eyebrows and the corners of the eyes, there is a familiar and charming charm.
The way he moves his hands and feet is even more elegant and dignified.
She was holding a stack of manuscripts in her hand, reading them with relish and intent.
Empress Xiao has never been able to enjoy the glory of a princess. She was given away by her father Xiao Kui twice when she was a child. Especially when she followed her uncle who came from a greedy and poor family, she suffered a lot. Therefore, although she is the princess of Liang Kingdom, she cannot She is no different from an ordinary child. However, her uncles and uncles who raised her successively never neglected their education, so that she learned exquisite music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, poetry, arithmetic, cooking and other miscellaneous arts at a young age. He subsidizes his family by copying books and performing arts.
What's even more amazing is that her second adoptive father and uncle Zhang Ke was frail and sick, but the family was so poor that they almost couldn't take the blame. There was no money to treat his uncle's illness, so she taught herself medical skills based on the medical books collected by her uncle. In the end, she learned very superb skills. medical skills. To this day, for some diseases that cannot be cured or diagnosed by imperial doctors, she can determine what the disease is by just checking the pulse, and then prescribe the right medicine accurately.
However, these abilities and the pressure of life are not something she likes to learn. After marrying Yang Guang, she just instinctively strives for excellence.
What does she like?
It is an anecdote that records strange and strange anecdotes!
In modern terms, Queen Xiao is a mystery; over the years, she has read all the "Yishu" collected by Yang Jian and Yang Guang; some, even several times.
The stack of manuscripts in her hand was sent by Xiao Ying. Knowing that Yang Ji liked reading Yi Shu and Xian Shu, her younger sister put the manuscript of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" written by Yang Ji when he was bored among the letters asking for advice on childbirth.
The letter and Yang Ji's manuscript arrived just in the evening. Empress Xiao thought it was still early for her husband to have dinner, so after reading the letter, she sat in the dining hall with the manuscript and started reading.
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is half-written, which matches the uneducated little guy King Kong Nu very well. However, the word description has the charm of a historical book, and more importantly, it is consistent with the obscure, cold and indifferent "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". 》 is different, it is full of very readable storytelling.
She was led into the trap by the opening line "Linjiang Immortal: Rolling Waters of the Yangtze River East". After reading it, she sighed and asked the maids and chamberlains. When they all said it was still early for Yang Guang's meal time, she Then read on.
I was so mesmerized by this sight that I completely forgot that time was flying by quietly. When the maids and chamberlains saw how intoxicated she was, they did not dare to disturb her.
Therefore, Yang Guang, who was forgotten by Empress Xiao, became hungry.
Empress Xiao read it in one breath, and she seemed to have seen the late Eastern Han Dynasty when there were powerful men and powerful men everywhere, famous generals and advisers like rain.
Although many of the stories in the manuscript are based on folk tales, unofficial histories, and biographies, and some are even wildly exaggerated, when strung together into a complete story based on the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the effect is naturally different from that of a single story. In particular, the selection of historical materials also means differences in the ability to arrange stories.
Along the way, I saw the fourth episode in which Han Emperor Chen Liujian was dethroned and Meng De, the thief who plotted against Dong, offered his sword.
Empress Xiao covered her eyes, a hint of understanding vaguely revealed in her beautiful eyes, and murmured to herself: "Is the traitor Yuan Shao?"
With Empress Xiao's knowledge, she could naturally see that Yuan Shao's idea of giving He Chu and Chu was completely sinister: after all, it was just to get rid of the ten regular servants. He Jin, the capital's army controlled by the general, could easily accomplish this without any use. There is no need to send border troops to the capital, but Yuan Shao came up with such a bad idea. Isn't this just deliberately causing trouble?
When she contacted Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who later became king instead of king, Queen Xiao knew that Yuan Shao's idea was to pave the way for the Yuan family to fight for the world.
"What?" It was Yang Guang who asked. He knew that his beloved wife liked to read books, and once she was intoxicated, she could not extricate herself. After coming back, I saw my beloved wife foolishly indulging in a book.
Without asking, Yang Guang guessed that she had seen some weird Yi Shu again, so he didn't bother him and sat at the table to eat. At this time, she suddenly said, "Is the rioter actually Yuan Shao?" She raised her head and asked.
"Ah?" Queen Xiao was stunned for a moment. She saw that her husband was already sitting at the table and eating. She was looking at him with curious eyes. She came back to her senses and came over embarrassedly. She sat down at the table and said sorry Looking at Yang Guang: "Erlang, I..."
"No need to explain." Yang Guang smiled and asked curiously: "I haven't seen you so fascinated by reading a book for many years. What kind of book are you reading? Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms?"
At this point, Yang Guang objected again: "No, the Three Kingdoms is boring and cold, so it won't make you so selfless."
Empress Xiao smiled softly, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and said: "It's a book written by King Kong Nu. It's called "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and the content is similar to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Aying knew that I like to read books, so she wrote "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The manuscript of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was sent together with the letter. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" written by Vajra Nu seems to be magical, and you can't stop it once you read it."
"Really?" Yang Guang became interested and said with a smile: "That guy wrote "Shi Shuo" and "Horse Shuo" not long ago, severely humiliated Wang Xiaotong and Wang Tong, and then used Wang Xiaotong's Twenty Paths as his In the gambling game, the scholars who traveled to the west won not a penny, and there were still many people who owed astronomical sums... These people had no worries about food and accommodation at Liangzhou University, but they were not officials and could not live in Liangzhou to Guanzhong. We are all worried about the return fare!"
At this point, Yang Guang actually laughed happily, as if he felt that his "majestic image" was being damaged in front of the palace maids and chamberlains, so he coughed a few times and ordered the palace ladies and chamberlains to retreat.
Empress Xiao chuckled and said, "I have never heard of this."
"This matter has spread all over Guanzhong." When no one else was around, Yang Guang burst out laughing. While laughing, he said with deep emotion: "Back then, I was so hot-headed that I encouraged the fledgling Vajra slaves to raid Yiwu. , I didn’t expect that boy to be so brave and to do it successfully. Thinking back on it now, I’m even sweating for him.”
Empress Xiao was startled, and said with a smile: "People say that the late emperor's ability to recognize people is unparalleled, and this is why Vajra Slave has a chance to get ahead; some people say that Erlang has a keen eye to recognize talents, and this is why he supports the Dandy King. Wearing armor and leading the charge...isn’t that right?”
"Of course not! King Kong Nu is a playboy at heart and has no ambition at all. The reason why he went to Liangzhou to become an official was because Aye and I coaxed and deceived him." Yang Guang said with a smile: "Aye and I knew that he When we went to fight Yiwu, we were actually frightened half to death. Later, we were afraid that he would cause trouble, so we planned to transfer him to Jizhou. However, Bujia Khan's army quickly moved south, and he himself fled to the Great Lakes area, so we had to make mistakes. . However, no one thought that this kid is so powerful..."
After hearing Yang Guang's words, Empress Xiao was stunned for a long time and said nonchalantly: "So, Vajra Slave was forced to this point by you?"
"That's right." Yang Guang laughed happily. Yang Ji was forced by Yang Jian to have no other choice, so he accepted the post of chief of fire and planned to continue to fight dandies in the capital with ten top soldiers; but Yang Jian felt that His various theoretical knowledge is sufficient, what is lacking is practical experience and practical experience. With a little training, he will be the second truly talented King Wei.
In order to get Yang Ji to be an official, Yang Jian took great pains. After he deceived Dugumin to Luoyang, he immediately asked Yang Ji to choose one of three in Liangzhou, Youzhou, and Jiaozhou... Moreover, Yang Jian was worried that Dugumin, who was eager for his son, would come back and cause trouble. , and asked Yang Guang to deceive Yang Ji, saying that Liangzhou was peaceful and a land without war. When Yang Ji admitted his fault, he immediately sent Yang Ji to Liangzhou like a plague.
In this way, Yang Ji was deceived by their father and son into becoming the general manager and governor of Liangzhou; then, he was forced to fight by Bujia Khan. Over time, he became what he is now.
As for the beautiful legends among the people about inheriting his father's ambition since childhood, about vowing not to share the sky with the Turks, etc., they all have nothing to do with Yang Ji. However, the beautiful image of the God of War and the God of War has been created, and now even Yang Ji himself jumps out to explain: People would not believe him if he said that he was just a playboy who was ready to eat and die.
Yang Guang wanted to laugh every time he thought of Yang Ji ascending to the throne of God of War and God of War in a strange way.
What's even more rare and what Yang Guang likes even more is that when Yang Jiguan has reached this stage, he is still not greedy for power and "not interested in making progress" as before; as long as he returns to the capital, he will not leave.
It lasts for several months.
As for Liangzhou's affairs, he doesn't care.
If he hadn't been bombarded, he wouldn't have gone back at all.
Last time, Liangzhou officials couldn't handle the affairs of Liangzhou and wrote letters to the palace. Yang Guang saw that he had made the capital a mess, so he drove him away like a god of plague. Then, he went to harm Murongbei and the Eastern Turks.
In Yang Guang's mind, Yang Ji was still the big playboy of the Yang family, but the level of the people he harmed was too high, far beyond the reach of other playboys.
Yang Guang always thought that he was the perfect suitor, with a grain of salt in his eyes, but when compared with Yang Ji, the gap immediately emerged. Yang Ji gave him the impression that he was "incompatible with evil". Once he felt that something was wrong, he would do it.
There was a mess and he ran away.
When he got into trouble outside, he would hide in the palace as soon as he could, and the person he was looking for was always Queen Dugu. She would scream for help as soon as she saw him, but the wise Queen Dugumin just fell in love with him; even though he was obviously wrong, Queen Dugu always just happily said to the other parent, "Children, how can there not be naughty? It is normal for children to fight. Next time, just ask your child to fight back."
That's what he said, but the problem is that Yang Ji is protected by Queen Dugu, and even Yang Jian doesn't dare to deal with him. Who dares to let his children fight back?
So in the end, every time, Yang Jian used his power for personal gain under the pressure of Queen Dugu, but Yang Jian was too embarrassed to come forward directly, so he put pressure on his sons and asked his sons to wipe Yang Ji's butt; over time, Yang Jian Guang and his brothers are all used to it.
Regarding this, the Yang Guang brothers were extremely envious. They thought that when they were young, whenever someone complained, their mother would not give them a chance to defend themselves, and would give them a severe beating first, which made their brothers rather be beaten by outsiders. They didn't want to go home and complain because they knew their mother's beating would hurt even more.
"According to Aying, they are coming back. According to the time on the letter, they have already set off." Empress Xiao glanced at Yang Guang and asked, "Did Erlang ask them to come back?"
"I didn't!" Yang Guang's smile froze on his face and he replied: "I never said to let them come back!"
Empress Xiao frowned and said, "A Ying said in the letter that they came back when they knew the capital was about to be moved."
"I don't intend to let them come back at all! Especially Vajra Slave, I'm really afraid of him." Yang Guang looked at Queen Xiao, who looked wrong, and explained: "It's not that I don't welcome them, but that I know Vajra Slave. This This guy is a curse, and once he comes back, nothing good will happen. I'm afraid he will make the capital relocation event a mess."
Queen Xiao's eyes flashed, and she suppressed a smile and said, "Aying also said that after they come back, they don't plan to go to Liangzhou."
"No! No! No!" Yang Guang's face changed: "King Kong Slave is causing more and more trouble. If he stays, what's the point? It's better to let him continue to cause trouble to others in Liangzhou."
"Then I'll write a letter to ask them to go back!" Empress Xiao didn't expect that Yang Guang, as the emperor, was also "afraid" of Yang Ji; of course, she also knew that this "fear" was not a simple fear, but very complicated...
"That's not necessary." Yang Guang's mood was very complicated. He wanted Yang Ji to come back, but he didn't want him to come back.
To be honest, Yang Guang still has a headache for Yang Ji. He liked the strange and wonderful ideas in Yang Ji's mind and Yang Ji's ability to get into trouble. He wanted to keep Yang Ji by his side to make suggestions, but at the same time, he was frightened by his ability to get into trouble.
The idea is not bad, but too radical. For example, when he heard that he wanted to weaken the power of the Guanlong nobles in the army, he came up with a very evil idea: to gather two to three million troops to kill Tuyuhun , Turks, maybe Goguryeo. When the killing is successful, encourage the other side to surrender. As long as the other side ceases its troops, your side will stop its troops; wait until the other side has accumulated enough troops, then encourage the other side to regret it, and then go to fight a tough battle. Wait until the soldiers on both sides are almost dead, and then let the other side surrender. , and then let the opponent concentrate their forces...
In this way, the army was sent to death. The army controlled by the Guanlong nobles was dead, and the world was at peace. Everyone was happy.
Listen, is this something humans do?
Although he, Yang Guang, hated the Guanlong nobles and wanted to kill all the sons of the Guanlong nobles who had been sent to the army, what could ordinary soldiers do wrong?
Besides, the Guanlong noble is not a fool. Can't he tell if he keeps doing this?
Therefore, Yang Ji's cruel and inhumane method is too outrageous, too inhumane, and too brainless.
Just thinking about it made Yang Guang feel horrified.
How can you govern the world with such nonsense?
If Yang Ji follows this method to deal with the Guanlong nobles, the world will be in chaos. So, although that kid is smart and knows how to fight, he is still a bit immature and does not understand that politics means compromise.
But Yang Ji's various strange and weird ideas seemed to have magical power, making him unable to stop; if he stayed by his side for a long time, he would never be able to withstand the temptation of those ideas.
Therefore, it is better to let that kid continue to harm the foreign races. When he matures and becomes sensible, it will not be too late to transfer to the capital.
Thinking of this, Yang Guang said again: "Let me see what he wrote."
"Why don't you eat well first and then watch it?" Queen Xiao watched it a few times and knew that "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has a magical power. She was worried that her husband would be obsessed with it after seeing it.
"It's okay, I want to see how well he writes."
"Okay!" Empress Xiao thought of Yang Guang's determination and stood up with confidence, took the thick manuscript and said: "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms begins with a poem."
"Read it and listen!" In literature, Yang Guang admired the unskilled Yang Ji. When he was a child, he could only write those crooked poems that made people angry and funny. In addition to "Spring sleeps without waking up, mosquitoes everywhere Bite; slap, I don’t know how many people will die.” There was also the phrase “the shore is green” that made him punished...
But later, as if with divine help, I wrote many shocking poems.
In this regard, Yang Guang also admired him.
Although he did not write it himself, he opened a new door after all, and it was written by his younger brother, Yang Guang and Yourong Yan.
Empress Xiao stretched out her fingers of white jade as white as mutton fat, opened the paper, lowered her head slightly, and began to read by the light of the lamp: "The rolling Yangtze River passes eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure turns to nothing. The green mountains are still there, several times Sunset red……"
Empress Xiao's voice was round and round, soft and light, which actually gave a different charm to the heroic and powerful "Linjiang Immortal".
Yang Guang put the vegetables back into the bowl and said with a smile: "When Meiniang reads it like this, how will the vajra slave feel when he hears it?"
Empress Xiao chuckled and said: "This poem is very heroic and tragic. It reflects the loss and loneliness of a hero after he achieves success, as well as the indifference and carefreeness of a hermit towards fame. But this poem is a bit old-fashioned."
Yang Guangdao: "If it were written by an official who had risen through the ranks, he would not only be old-fashioned, but also resentful of his superiors."
Queen Xiao: "It's just a poem, is that all?"
When Yang Guang saw Empress Xiao's slightly open mouth, she felt a touch of fire in her heart and smiled: "But this was written by a Vajra slave who had a smooth career and great military exploits. That means he didn't pay attention to the heroes of the past and present. ...but I have to say that he does have the qualification to despise everything. Moreover, this kind of wildness is also in line with the style of life and work. If he is not frivolous, is he still a vajra slave?"
If this poem was written by an old minister who had experienced ups and downs and lost power, then hidden beneath his generosity and generosity, and his ability to see through the world, would be resentment towards the emperor and the court. But Yang Ji was the king from the moment he was born, and he never suffered any setbacks. Therefore, when he wrote this kind of poetry, he was completely young and frivolous, which was very consistent with his flamboyant personality.
"..." Queen Xiao was speechless upon hearing this.
He said, as long as you are a vajra slave, it is right even if you kill people and set fire to the mountains, but others can't even light a lamp?
"Of course I won't care about a poem, and I wouldn't care if it was written by someone else." Yang Guang seemed to understand what Queen Xiao was thinking, and said with a smile: "Poets like to exaggerate so much. I think back then, He Ruobi What is the result of writing an anti-poetry in front of Aye? Does he dare to rebel? No. Even he, a general, does not dare. What can a poet do? What does he dare to do? So there is no need to make a fuss."
"It's just right. This poem can stimulate those veterans who are stuck in the old ways and don't want to make progress."
With that said, Yang Guang reached out to take the manuscript and placed it in front of him.
Seeing this, I forgot to eat all the food and forgot to put the bowl and chopsticks in my left hand.
Yang Guang has been reviewing memorials and official documents for a long time, and his speed of extracting textual information is as fast as that of later bookworms.
When he saw the imperial edict against Dong, Yang Guang couldn't help but think of Yuchi Jiong's propaganda of rebellion. How could the Yang Jian back then be the Dong Zhuo in the book?
As he continued to read, Yang Guang's careless expression disappeared, and his face suddenly became solemn, confused, and thoughtful.
Whenever he found something, he would quickly read it.
The description of the heroes and heroes of the late Han Dynasty in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is just a thin historical image, while "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" written by Yang Ji added a lot of artistic processing to make everyone flesh and blood and vivid on the page.
In addition, there are classic allusions that are familiar to later generations but are not available now, such as the sworn alliance in the Taoyuan, the Three Heroes' Battle with Lu Bu, Meng De's Sword Offering, Green Plums Cooking Wine and Discussing Heroes, etc. They are full of fascinating stories and readability.
Yang Guang read six chapters in one breath, "Dong Zhuo commits murder at the Burning Golden Palace, and Sun Jian breaks the promise by hiding the jade seal". Before he knew it, it was already the hour, and he was about to continue reading, but he caught the tablecloth, turned it back and looked at the bottom, but it was abominable. "If you want to know what happened next time, let's listen to the explanation!"
"What's down there?" Yang Guang suddenly raised his head and looked at Queen Xiao with shining eyes.
Queen Xiao shook her head: "No more!"
Yang Guang put down the bowl and chopsticks, shook his hands, and said depressedly: "How can this be like this? How can it be gone?"
"How do I know? Anyway, that's all." Empress Xiao looked at Yang Guang innocently and encouraged: "I'm quite depressed too. It's so uncomfortable that it's neither good nor bad. Otherwise, you can send someone to urge him. ?”
"His!" Yang Guang stood up, walked around anxiously for a few times, and ordered Yang An, who came in at some unknown time: "Send the order and send a few elites to find King Wei overnight. Others can arrive at Daxing later, but The manuscript of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" must be sent to me."
"Here!" Yang An thought for a while. He didn't know what the saint and the queen were looking at, so he asked: "Sage, what if the King of Wei is gone?"
"Then let King Wei write on the carriage."
