The rise of the poor

Chapter 757
A series of footsteps outside attracted the attention of everyone in the outer hall of the Longevity Palace, and soon Eunuch Zhang took Zhu Ping'an's sleeve and trotted to appear in the outer hall.

When Zhu Ping entered the Longevity Palace, he only had time to bow his hands to the adults in the outer hall, and he didn't even have time to say hello, so he was pulled by his sleeves and walked into the inner hall by the little eunuch Zhang.

When everyone in the outer hall saw Zhu Ping'an being called in, their eyes were filled with emotion.

Yan Maoqing looked at Zhu Ping'an's figure walking into the inner hall, and pulled the corners of his mouth downwards, hehe, self-inflicted crimes can't live, the Holy One believes, you praise Buddha, today you are finished,
After entering the inner hall, Zhu Pingan immediately saw Emperor Jiajing sitting on the futon with his eyes closed and meditating, and Huang Jin standing aside.

Seeing Zhu Pingan coming in, Huang Jin gave Zhu Pingan a kind smile.

"Report to Your Majesty, Zhu Ping'an has arrived." After entering the inner hall, the little eunuch Zhang whispered to Emperor Jiajing who was meditating.

As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, Zhu Pingan knelt down and kowtowed three times and kowtowed nine times to see Jiajing.

"Chairman Si Zhilang, Minister of the Imperial Academy, and Taicang Inspector Zhu Ping'an, kowtowed to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

After Zhu Pingan knelt down and bowed his head on the ground, he paused for about two seconds before he heard Emperor Jiajing's voice above his head.

"Zhu Aiqing, let's get up." Emperor Jiajing stood up, and was supported by Huang Jin to sit on the dragon chair, and said leisurely.

"Sir, thank you Lord Long En." Zhu Pingan thanked him with a big salute, and then got up, showing great respect and respect.

"Ai Qing, are you guilty?"

Zhu Ping'an just got up, and Emperor Jiajing looked at Zhu Ping'an with slightly narrowed eyes, and asked lightly.

Hearing that Zhu Ping'an knelt on the ground again with a thud, his back felt cold and his skin got goosebumps, but he soon calmed down again, shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know."

As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, and you haven't done anything that violates discipline or law, so you have a clear conscience.

"I don't know?" Emperor Jiajing asked back with a smile that was not a smile, and then asked in a deep voice, "I ordered you to inspect the Taicang Bank, why did you come here to contribute articles to me? Do you think I don't care about priorities? Are you a fool?"

Oh, it turned out that it was because of this. Zhu Ping'an was completely relieved, raised his head and explained with an aggrieved face: "I dare not, the sage is wise and mighty, diligent in governing and loving the people, he is an emperor through the ages, how can he be a foolish emperor? It's not like I left my post without permission. I've been checking the account books in Taicang from Mao in the morning to You in the afternoon. When you came to Xiyuan, I had something to ask for an audience with the Holy Majesty, and I didn't know about the article until I handed in the request letter."

"Come to Xiyuan in Youshi... Doesn't that mean that Aiqing just arrived?" Emperor Jiajing squinted his eyes and glanced at the engraved scale on the copper pot in the palace, raised his eyebrows slightly, doubtful about Zhu Ping'an's answer.

"Your Majesty is wise, I have just arrived." Zhu Pingan nodded solemnly.

"What kind of wisdom is this?" Seeing this, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help scolding Zhu Pingan with a smile.

Although Zhu Ping's flattery is blunt, there are advantages to being blunt. If you shoot bluntly, you are embarrassed, but the other party looks funny. This is another form of active atmosphere.

"Hehe, Zhuangyuan Lang has just arrived, and he wrote such an article "Kneeling in front of the Buddha for 3000 Years"? I just heard from Xiao Lizi, the director of Wuyi Palace, that you only used less than a cup of tea. Cao Zhi's seven-step poem is nothing more than that, it's like listening to legends of ghosts, it really makes miscellaneous people unbelievable." Huang Jin observed his words and said with a smile, some things are not convenient for Emperor Jiajing to say, but they are different.

"The lower official also wrote it because of his feelings. It coincided with the meeting, so he wrote it faster. He absolutely dare not compare with Cao Zhizhi's talent." Zhu Pingan shook his head and explained very modestly.Admiral Huang Jin supervised Dongchang and was also in charge of the Rites. His official position was much higher than that of Zhu Pingan. There was nothing wrong with Zhu Pingan calling himself a low-ranking official here.

"Cao Zhi also expressed his feelings, so there is no need for the champion to be humble," Huang Jin said with a smile.

Uh, Zhu Pingan shook his head with a wry smile.

"Warming tea composition? Hehe, interesting, then pour Zhu Aiqing a cup of tea and let me see how Aiqing warms tea composition." Emperor Jiajing looked at Zhu Pingan leisurely and said, "Master Tao went to Taihe Mountain to build Yuanyue Mountain , There is still a couplet missing in Huizuo Mountain Gate, if Aiqing prepares warm tea, I will forgive you for not guilty, if not, Aiqing also knows the consequences of the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Soon a little eunuch poured Zhu Pingan a cup of tea and put it on the ground in front of Zhu Pingan.

"I thank the Lord for your kindness, and I will do my best." Zhu Ping'an kowtowed, but he was speechless for a while, warming tea and writing essays were all what you said, and I didn't set this flag.

However, Zhu Pingan is not worried at all about writing couplets. After studying for so long in ancient times, it is not difficult for him to write couplets. I have visited some Taoist temples that do not charge money, and I have memorized a lot of couplets from Taoist temples, which is enough to cope with the past calamity.

It is better to use ready-made ones. The couplets in modern Taoist temples must be carefully selected, and they are selected only if they are particularly outstanding.

During such a cup of tea, the couplets written by myself are definitely not as good as the carefully selected couplets in Taoist temples.

Just which one should I use?
Zhu Pingan closed his eyes and began to think. Taoist temples appeared in his mind, and couplets appeared one after another.

Emperor Jiajing didn't urge him either. He smiled at the corner of his mouth and looked at Zhu Ping'an with great interest.

Huang Jin seemed to have a lot of confidence in Zhu Ping'an, and he looked at Zhu Ping'an with full confidence.

Ok

Yes, after thinking for more than ten seconds, Zhu Pingan thought of the couplets he saw in a Sanqing Palace and Taoist temple in Hebei.

After thinking about it, Zhu Pingan didn't act in a hurry, but continued to close his eyes and meditate, pretending to be thinking hard.

Proper hiding is necessary, especially now.If I wrote it so fast, where would the ministers in the outer hall turn their faces?In addition, Emperor Jiajing was conceited and sensitive, so it was inappropriate for him to perform better than the Holy One. ,
In this way, in Zhu Pingan's meditation, time passed minute by minute.

"Hehe, Zhuangyuanlang, the tea will be cold if you don't write any more." After a while, Huang Jin urged with a slight smile.

"Wait a minute or two. Oh, there it is." Zhu Pingan made an anxious look, and after about three to five seconds, he pretended to be inspired again, picked up the brush on the side, dipped it in ink, and wrote on the rice paper up:

Taiji Judgment regards Cheng Qiankun, Qian as the father, and Kun as the mother, with great supernatural powers, one breath and three cleansing, saving all the people of the four continents;

The two instruments are divided into Yin and Yang, Yang belongs to the sky, and Yin belongs to the earth, showing boundless magic power, away from the dragon and the tiger, and cultivate into a golden immortal for thousands of calamities.

Zhu Pingan wrote a sentence, and Huang Jin repeated a sentence.

"Although the time has passed, herbal tea is still considered tea. So-so, let's count you as passing this time." Emperor Jiajing commented on it after listening, but he was very satisfied in his heart.

The words "Save all the people in the four continents" and "Cultivate the Golden Immortal of Ten Thousand Tribulations" behind these two couplets simply touched Emperor Jiajing's heart, which made Emperor Jiajing very satisfied. The purpose of building Yuanyue himself was to save the people in all four continents. As for the cultivation of the Golden Immortal of Myriad Tribulations, it was Emperor Jiajing's pursuit.
