"How can you talk to a noble person? How about a virtuous minister... Who can predict his posthumous name?"
Liang Chu listened to the hint given by Yan Song and thought that this boy should be able to crawl in the future.
Can you trust him?
After a slight pause, he continued to sigh meaningfully: "It has been more than sixty years since I passed away, and I can finally see the blue sky through the clouds and mist."
The last few words were spoken slowly and solemnly.
Boy, it’s up to you to understand.
I can only say so much.
Besides, if you want to take credit from this incident, you must finally break with Yang Tinghe!
In the side hall, Yan Song only looked at his eyes for a moment, then immediately left his seat and saluted: "I would like to express my gratitude to the public, and on behalf of all the scholars in the world who are determined to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country, I would like to pay homage to the great scholar and ask your majesty to posthumously honor the public." merit."
Liang Chu felt extremely emotional.
Yang Tinghe, your student is right next door. Are you listening to Qiang Gen?
This Yan Song... is amazing! He has even noticed Huang Zuko’s bumpy journey!
How just and awe-inspiring was this gift? It was because of Yu Qian's posthumous title.
But he, Yan Song, knelt in front of Liang Chu after all.
What opportunity does he want? The daily speech and daily life mentioned at the beginning mean that the official will be around every day?
No...he really understood.
…
Fortunately, Liu Long didn't come, otherwise he would have looked too cute in this high-end game.
After the exchange between the Riddlers ended, Yan Song, who was on his way back to the Hanlin Academy, was so excited that his blood boiled.
Sure enough! Sure enough, it’s not just as simple as pursuing a posthumous title!
Clear away the clouds and see the blue sky.
What is heaven? There is only one piece of sky above Ming Dynasty, and that is the emperor!
When Yu Qian parted the clouds and saw the blue sky, was it just a matter of redressing the injustice and taking the posthumous title to another level?
No, what color is green?
Copper body cloisonné enamel, used by the royal palace, cloisonné!
Yu Qian wants to see Emperor Jing?
What kind of situation would allow Emperor Jing and Yu Qian, a pair of emperors and ministers with extraordinary grievances, to face each other calmly?
There is only one truth: profess your clan and enter the temple, and loyal ministers will accompany you to worship!
One of them entered the ancestral temple by taking advantage of the fact that a minister was redressed after more than sixty years, and the other was worthy of the ancestral temple because of his loyalty to the country. Their names after their death will clear the clouds and see the blue sky.
Chasing posthumous titles is just the beginning!
Liang Chu is already old, and he now has to think about his posthumous name. His posthumous name is for someone to tell Li Dongyang like Yang Yiqing: We are going to give you the posthumous title of "Wenzheng".
Huang Zuo was a latecomer from his hometown, but Huang Zuo was still too young.
Liang Chu, who had been a good man for many years, did not have people like Mao Ji surrounding him like Yang Tinghe.
He, Liang Chu, has a lot of black spots!
Now that Liang Chu hinted this incredible information to Yan Song, what should Yan Song do next?
Find a way to perform meritorious service as quickly as possible and with tacit understanding, and climb up with the help of Liang Chu at the end of his political career!
But this is difficult to do.
What kind of beautiful posthumous title do you need to be worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple?
If you still want to use this incident to climb up in the future, then the only thing left is to clear Emperor Jing's name. But what kind of courage does it take to stand up? It's not like pursuing Yu Qian's posthumous title without resistance at all.
That is to ask the emperor to disobey his biological great-grandfather Yingzong, and he will face the siege of countless important ministers who abide by etiquette and law.
When Yan Song returned home that day, he couldn't sit still.
He read over and over again the posthumous titles and historical records in the study, and pondered over and over what the emperor wanted to achieve through this matter.
Yan Song, who understood that ministers deserved to enjoy the Ancestral Temple, was about to reappear, and he had already won a lot more than many people.
But it is absolutely impossible to do this this year.
Otherwise, will it be recorded in the history books in the future: In the 16th year of Zhengde, Emperor Jing proclaimed his ancestral status and entered the temple, and Yu Qian accompanied him to worship?
Isn’t it beautiful in the first year of Jiajing?
So there is no rush in that matter, and the current credit is only focused on pursuing the posthumous title.
The specifications must be high! We must exaggerate the atmosphere of Yingzong's merits and demerits and Emperor Jing's regret, and we must create a momentum of lamentation for Qian!
Since His Majesty has approved this matter, he is not afraid of others talking about the affairs of Emperor Yingzong Jing.
The more people talk about it, the faster the reset of the three major camps will be pushed forward.
Now that the emperor's throne is still in danger, where are His Majesty's loyal ministers? Where are the capable ministers who can accompany His Majesty to create unparalleled achievements and be worthy of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the future?
Yan Song was thinking about Xia Yan, his fellow countryman, Yang Tinghe, his master, and Liang Chu...
"Dad, why are you walking around all the time? Did something big happen again?"
Yan Shifan came to the study room with a volume in his hand.
"...but did you read the difficult part?"
Yan Song was used to his son asking for scriptures, so he put aside his worries temporarily and sat on the chair.
While drinking tea, I heard my son say: "Mr. is very interested today. Before the lecture, he talked about His Majesty's posthumous title of Shaobao. Dad, has he made any merit in this matter?"
Yan Song couldn't laugh or cry, rubbed his head and said, "Why are you worrying about all this? Just concentrate on your homework first!"
"My son has done his homework a long time ago!" Yan Shifan puffed up his chest proudly, his eyes bright, "Will there be another quarrel about this matter? It would be great if there is a quarrel."
"...How can the quarrel be resolved?"
"Didn't Dad say that Your Majesty is very powerful before? His Majesty will always win. Dad, you can help His Majesty!"
Yan Song has a big head: "You are a big kid, what kind of book are you holding in your hand?"
I heard that he only talked about these gossips when he came in. How could Yan Song continue to talk to his son about these twists and turns in the court?
"Posthumous Law compiled by Su Mingyun."
Yan Song was speechless and his eyes widened: "What are you reading this for? You know after you have finished reading "The Analects of Confucius". Where is "Mencius"? Where is "The Great Learning"?"
Big kid, what are you reading about "Posthumous Law"? Although I know why, I feel a little uncomfortable with you!
"Everyone is talking about Yu Shaobao's posthumous title, and we will definitely talk about it tomorrow. My son doesn't want to lose!" Yan Shifan enthusiastically handed the book over to him, "Dad, what posthumous title do you think His Majesty will give Yu Shaobao in the end? My son memorized it first and surprised them later!"
Sure enough... Yan Song imagined a group of children in social studies who were not even boys talking about this, and felt it was outrageous: "Why are you talking about this? Sir, you don't care about it?"
"Your Majesty wants to reset the three major battalions, and there will definitely be wars in the future. Yu Shaobao fought so hard. Everyone feels that Yu Shaobao was as powerful as Yue Wumu, and he died unjustly."
Yan Song was speechless for a moment.
These are kids who really like to play with knives and guns. The social studies school my son is currently studying in are all children of officials, so it is normal for him to know some of the court's trends through his own eyes and ears.
I just didn't expect that the old Juren teacher I hired would talk to his children like this. It can be seen that the fact that Yu Qian pursued his posthumous title has indeed made it difficult for scholars to suppress their emotions.
"Is it Wu Mu? My son has memorized the meaning of the word Wu Mu."
Yan Shifan came here to confirm this matter so that he could brag among his friends later.
He's serious about doing his homework and bragging with reason.
If his official position becomes bigger and bigger, then he will become more and more powerful. Even if he can't make it big yet, if he can guess the final posthumous name, it will be a sign that his father is capable and promising.
My one-eyed Qing'er can only rely on my father now.
Yan Song was silent.
What kind of posthumous title will qualify you to buy the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the future?
Do the children think that they will pursue the posthumous title of Wu Mu like the general Yue Fei?
No, Yu Qian is a civil servant.
The three major camps were resettled, the harm done to civil servants by the great ceremony was discussed, and Liang Chu was summoned alone...
Yan Shifan saw that his father was deep in thought and did not disturb him.
His father was also afraid that he would be wronged in social studies. He pays close attention to his homework and hopes that he will be praised more by his teachers. Whenever I ask questions, I will always answer him patiently.
After a long time, Yan Song's eyes flashed: "Qing'er, my father thinks that this posthumous title will be Zhongwu."
"Zhongwu?"
"Yes!" Yan Song nodded solemnly, "Zhongwu is the best!"
What he said was not the most suitable, but the most useful.
The word "loyalty" is at the forefront, because of martial arts.
The posthumous title is the best, regardless of literary and military skills.
Only this posthumous title will cause the greatest discussion, and will make many people look up the old stories of Emperor Yingzong and Jingdi out of envy, jealousy, and continue to discuss whether it is appropriate and whether it will pass.
Only this posthumous title can make both civil and military ministers have expectations.
A hundred years from now, will your Majesty also have a group of ministers who are Wenzheng, Wuning, and Zhongwu?
And the threshold for a loyal and military official to enjoy the Ancestral Temple is enough!
Yan Song laughed happily and touched his son's head: "Go and carry it! In addition, it can be said that Zhongwu is a posthumous title, which can be used by civil servants and generals! Yu Shaobao is good at literature and military, and has a noble character. According to history books, Yu Shaobao should He is the same figure as Zhuge Liang! Yue Wumu, and later Yue Zhongwu!"
It would be best for some people to stand up and say that Zhongwu is unlucky. The Shu Han was defeated after Zhuge Liang, and the Tang Dynasty declined after Guo Ziyi.
And those who are pursuing the posthumous title of Zhongwu in our dynasty are all military generals. Your Majesty must not cause the military generals to be greedy for merit and start provocations because of this!
But the emperor who took the lead in approving 200,000 taels of food and salary for the Xuan government, re-establishing the three major camps, and promoting Xia Yan, who invited Yang Yiqing to take control of the three sides, probably also had the ambition to expand the territory in this life!
Yan Song returned to his study and wrote furiously.
With His Majesty's current energy and talent, does he really need to rely on the Beijing camp to prevent rebellion?
At this moment, the military commander could not imagine that he had no talent at all.
Civil servants were unwilling to think at such a high level, and many people did not know that His Majesty intended Yu Qian to enjoy the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
Before Yuan Zonggao entered the cabinet, it was not appropriate for him to suffer too much criticism from civil servants.
Liang Chu is already old, and he needs the help of those who come after him to protect his posthumous reputation.
Your Majesty can no longer raise the point himself. He is waiting for a minister to stand up.
Accepting criticism is a sign of loyalty!
This was Yan Song's real chance.
