The rise of the poor

Chapter 357
This is why it is the choice of fish and chicken.

But in the face of Emperor Jiajing's question, Zhu Ping'an couldn't answer in this way. This kind of answer was too religious and utilitarian. Even if the answer was correct, it might not be a good one.

As a believer, this kind of explanation and answer can satisfy the Pope!
But as a subject, such an answer cannot satisfy the monarch!The answer of the courtier should be like a courtier.

"Chickens have five virtues. I was often taught by my mother at home. Since I was a child, my mother told me that chickens are the birds of the five virtues. When I was young, my family was poor. My mother exchanged chickens for eggs and bought pens, ink and paper. , for my minister to read and write, my minister is able to have today, thanks to the support of my parents, and I am also grateful for the chicken.

"The chicken is a bird of the five virtues. It has five virtues. There is a crown on the head of the chicken, and the crown is a gentleman. This is Wende; the chicken has toes behind its claws, which are sharp and sharp, and it is used for fighting. This is Wude; the chicken is strong and powerful. Not to be afraid, to face a strong enemy, to dare to fight, to fight bravely, to meet a narrow road, the brave wins, this is the virtue of bravery; after the chicken finds the food, it will not eat alone, but will invite its companions to peck together, benevolence is unparalleled, this is benevolence "The rooster announces the dawn, not afraid of the severe cold and heat, rain or shine, the dawn announces the dawn, and never loses faith for a day, and is punctual and trustworthy, this is faith."

"Master has a saying that if three people walk together, there must be my teacher. I believe that this statement applies to all things in the world."

"I choose the golden rooster to learn from its five virtues. A minister should live a day and learn a day, live a life and learn to be old, never put down the book, and the heart of literature and virtue will last forever; Although a literati, he also has a martial heart, and those who violate my Ming Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away. Although I am a civil servant, I have no strength to restrain a chicken, but I am willing to gallop on the battlefield to make meritorious deeds for your majesty. Planning in the midst of the strategy; the northern captives are tyrannical, and the southern Japanese are brutal, but I have the blood of a great man on my body, and I also have a heart of courage, and I am not afraid; I am grateful to your majesty for being promoted, and I have the heart of a benevolent person. From now on, no matter where the humble minister is, there will always be benevolence; people will not stand without faith, and the minister will always have faith, words must be done, and actions must be resolute."

"These five virtues, I will keep in mind, put them into practice, and add bricks and tiles to your Majesty's splendid country."

Zhu Pingan held the golden rooster in his hand, his face was full of excitement, his eyes were full of sincerity, and his words were clear. He told the reason why he chose the golden rooster "truthfully" to Emperor Jiajing who was sitting on the dragon chair.

For these reasons, it is almost possible to make a policy article.

The theory of five virtues.

Live and learn.

The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road.

Add bricks and tiles to my splendid country.

How comfortable these words sound, the theory of the five virtues is well said, learn to live forever, these six words are concise, but they have far-reaching meanings; All the officers and soldiers have this heart, so why would Lao Shizi, the northern prisoner and the southern Japanese, beat Daming to death with me, take the lead!There is also adding bricks and tiles to my splendid country. They didn't talk about opening up territories, but only adding bricks and tiles. What they said was so sincere and not fake at all.How urgent it is to serve the country.

The words and phrases that have withstood the test of modern society mixed in Zhu Pingan's speech conquered Jiajing.

These words have reached Emperor Jiajing's heart. Where can I find such a courtier with a filial heart, such a courtier who is eager to learn, such a courtier who is sensible, and who has such a heart to serve the country!

After listening to Zhu Ping'an's words, Huang Jin, who served beside Emperor Jiajing, couldn't help but look at Zhu Ping'an again, and firmly remembered Zhu Ping'an.This young man has an unlimited future, so he should pay more attention to it and form a good relationship in the future.

"Be flat, Aiqing has a heart of filial piety." Sitting on the dragon chair, Emperor Jiajing sighed after hearing Zhu Ping'an's reply.

"Aiqing has a good mother."

After Emperor Jiajing sighed, he said another sentence.

Having said that, it's not over yet.

Zhu Pingan listened to Emperor Jiajing's words to flatten his body, and after listening to Emperor Jiajing's emotion, he just got up when he was slammed to the ground by the next sentence of Emperor Jiajing.

After Emperor Jiajing said that Aiqing has a good mother, he immediately said such a sentence, and it was this sentence that made Zhu Ping'an fall to his knees on the ground with a plop.

"Huang Ban, choose a day to draft an imperial order. Zhu Ping'an's mother, Mrs. Chen, is good at accumulating in her body. On the dragon chair, he opened his golden mouth and rewarded Zhu Pingan's mother, Mrs. Chen, with an imperial order.

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En."

Zhu Ping'an knelt on the ground with a plop, and was a little out of control by the surprise.

A surprise, definitely a big surprise.When Zhu Ping'an was at home, he said many times when coaxing his mother, Mrs. Chen, that she would fight for her mother's order to come back.Although I said so, of course I will work so hard, but the order is really not so easy to get.

In Daming and even the entire feudal society, the emperor’s imperial decree called the imperial edict for officials of the first rank to the fifth rank;Their mothers and wives also follow their ranks after receiving the imperial decree, which is what everyone often calls the imperial wives.

Madam Gaoming also has a rank and a salary, but she has no real power, but this honor is definitely enough to honor her ancestors and make her admired and hated by thousands of people.

The grades of the wives are divided in this way: the mother and wife of a third-rank official are granted the title of Shuren, which is also the third rank; Pleasant, is also the fifth rank; the mother and wife of the sixth rank official, who is granted to An Ren, is also the sixth rank.

Zhu Ping'an's mother was granted the title of An Ren, the sixth rank.

However, Madam Gaoming does not mean that your son or your husband can be appointed as an official. This requires many conditions, and you will not be granted an imperial order for no reason.

One of the very important conditions is: outstanding achievements.In other words, if you become an official, you must be very good at it, and you must have great achievements. The number of places is very limited.

That's why when Zhu Pingan heard that Jiajing Feng's mother, Mrs. Chen, ordered his wife, he was so surprised that he lost his composure.I just answered, I just wanted to be close to the reality, thank my parents, and take the opportunity to leave a good impression in front of Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing looked at Zhu Pingan's surprised expression, shook his head and smiled, this child is really sincere.

"Okay, let's kneel down." Emperor Jiajing shook his head and smiled, then waved his hand.

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En, and I will leave." Zhu Pingan once again knelt down to thank him, this time with absolute sincerity from the bottom of his heart, and then got up to leave.

Zhu Pingan still felt a little unreal until he left the hall. This surprise was really unexpected.

In other words, after receiving the imperial decree, mother Chen will definitely show off in and out of the village.

Just thinking about how the mother at home looked like when she received the imperial decree, Zhu Ping'an couldn't stop smiling.
