Rule over Ming Dynasty

Chapter 41

This……

When Xie Qian heard Zhu Youtang's words, he finally knew why Zhang Sheng wanted to find him.

Wang Yue's charge of "resentment in writing poetry" undoubtedly involves a word game, and he is the most proficient in poetry, so he can indeed provide some reference opinions.

It's just...the water in this pool is very deep!
Wang Yue, the traitor of the civil servants group, the man who all court officials wanted to kill!
"Master Xie, what do you think about this matter?" Zhang Sheng was not in a hurry to express his opinion, but turned to look at Xie Qian and said.

Xie Qian couldn't help feeling a bit of pain in his heart, but he knew that now was the time to make a choice. If he failed to provide help, he would definitely not have a place for himself here.

Zhu Youtang squeezed the lid of the tea and poured hot tea lightly, but he knew that Xie Qian was a talented person, but it depended on whether this person could be used for himself.

In fact, the officials who can pass the imperial examination are not ordinary people, and I just need to find the most loyal and reliable people, and I don't need to pay too much attention to ability.

"Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly, Wang Yue's poems do have grievances, and it is difficult to clear him of the crime!" Xie Qian hesitated, but said very seriously.

Zhu Youtang couldn't help frowning slightly, looking at the tea stalks floating on the tea, this was not the answer he wanted, nor the courtier he needed.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if you still remember the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Yuxi I mentioned to you?" Xie Qian felt Zhu Youtang's indifference, but asked another question.

Zhang Sheng looked at Xie Qian with complicated eyes. This guy is so perfunctory, isn't it too naive to think that the old relationship in the East Palace can be reused?
Zhu Youtang knew that Xie Qian really liked to bring some private goods with him to class, so he prepared to taste tea calmly: "In the old days, the swallow before Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people. Liu Yuxi's poems are really good!"

"Your Majesty, Wang Yue is not the only official convicted of poetry. Liu Yuxi's experience is actually more twists and turns, and even more wronged!" Xie Qian naturally did not play the emotional card, and seemed to be painstakingly authentic.

Zhang Sheng suddenly became interested, and Zhu Youtang stopped drinking tea and said, "Thank you, Master, I would like to know more about it!"

"Your Majesty, 'Zimo's world of mortals is coming, and everyone can't help but look at the flowers; there are thousands of peach trees in Xuandu Temple, all of which are planted by Liu Lang after he went." This poem is Liu Yuxi's work of visiting Chang'an Xuandu Temple. Are you disrespectful?" Xie Qian asked.

Zhu Youtang exchanged glances with Zhang Sheng, then seriously shook his head and said, "No disrespect!"

"The one-hundred-acre courtyard is half covered with moss, and the peach blossoms are all gone. Where are the Taoist priests who planted peaches? Liu Lang, the former governor, is here again today! Is this poem disrespectful?" Xie Qian asked again.

Zhang Sheng is a short-tempered person, so he complained: "Master Xie, these two poems are all for the pleasure of visiting the garden, what are you doing with these two poems?"

Zhu Youtang knew that Xie Qian could not throw out these two poems for no reason, but no matter how you looked at them, these two poems had nothing to do with disrespect.

"Liu Yuxi studied in Luoyang and Chang'an at the age of 19, and gained a high reputation among scholars. In the ninth year of Zhenyuan, Jinshi was able to enter the official career. In the 21st year of Zhenyuan, he became a member of Tuntian Yuanwailang and became the core figure of the reform group. However, Yongzhen's innovation failed. , Liu Yuxi and other eight people were demoted to Yuanzhou Sima. Ten years later, Liu Yuxi was recalled to Beijing, but he was hated by Wu Yuanheng and others. The first poem was written at this time, and the poem "Xuandu Guanli Taoqianshu, It's all because of Liu Lang's departure, because Taohua has the intention of flattering and flattering villains, so Liu Yixi thinks that Liu Yixi is insinuating that the new courtiers are all flattering and favoring villains, so he was relegated to the local government!" Thank you He talked eloquently and authentically.

Zhu Youtang's mouth opened slightly, and he was really full of knowledge. This interpretation is also...too powerful, right?

Zhang Sheng swallowed his saliva, but asked curiously: "The second poem has no peach blossoms, so how can it be related to disrespect?"

"Liu Yuxi returned to Chang'an 14 years after he was demoted. At that time, it was March in the second year of Tang Wenzong's Yamato. He revisited Xuandu Temple and wrote the second song "Revisiting Xuandu Temple": The hundred-acre garden is half covered with moss and peach blossoms The cauliflower is in full bloom. Where does the Taoist priest planting peaches go? The former Liu Lang is here again! Your Majesty, if you compare the view of Xuandu to the court hall, your majesty thinks that the hundred-acre garden is half covered with moss. This poem is respectable?" Xie Qian's His eyes fell on Zhu Youtang, and he asked bitterly.

The corner of Zhu Youtang's mouth twitched slightly, and he had to smile wryly: "If you interpret it like this, Liu Yuxi is really disrespectful!"

"Wang Yue's culprits are two, namely "Crossing the Red Rock Mountain": winter is coming, and the red stone mountain is high; , Why do you need to be like raising an eagle; I remember passing through this place last year, the iron clothes were sweating and steaming. "Ciyun Reply to Ma Dali Tianlu": After several times in the battlefield of breaking the captives, looking back on the little labor is always empty. I am always ashamed of the wise man. Who doesn't laugh at Yu Gong when he moves mountains. He likes to drink three-point wine when he is free, but he is ashamed to talk about two stone bows when he is old. There is no way to repay the holy grace. How dare Ge Yi complain about the desolate wind. The inappropriate part of the first song is "use Why do you need to raise an eagle', this is disrespect to the late emperor; the second song is even more disrespectful, and the resentment is more straightforward!" Xie Qian turned back.

Zhang Sheng couldn't help sighing sadly, Liu Yuxi's two garden poems could have been relegated by the court at that time, and it seemed that Wang Yue's conviction was not wronged.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, the real reason for Wang Yue's conviction was not these two poems!" Xie Qian had already made a decision in his heart, so he revealed it.

Zhu Youtang couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and said in confusion, "I don't know which song it is?"

"The poem that really angered the late emperor is "Lishan Nostalgia": The lonely Lishan locks the sunset, and I don't feel tears staining my clothes. The king of You is entertained by the fire, and the imperial concubine of the Tang emperor is bathed in a hot spring. The grass grows old with hatred, and the flowers fall. Speechless for whom to fly. In spring, there are many birds singing in Xiuling, as if telling passers-by." Xie Qian said.

When Zhang Sheng heard this poem, he looked enlightened and said: "This poem quotes Zhou Youwang and Baosi, Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei, so this is a metaphor for Emperor Chenghua and Concubine Wan Gui, but is that so?"

"That's right, it was precisely because this poem offended the late emperor with the satire of the past, and because others fanned the flames at that time, the late emperor exiled Wang Yue to Anlu in a fit of anger!" Xie Qian said, restoring the truth back then.

Zhu Youtang took a sip of tea silently, and found that these scholars were really good at playing word games.

Zhang Sheng nodded thoughtfully, but still said frowningly: "Although we know the truth about Wang Yue's crime back then, this poem is too far-fetched. The Ministry of Punishment will definitely not agree to exonerate Wang Yue!"

"If you really want to pick out any poems, you can always pick out some faults! Wang Yue's poems are full of grievances, so the faults in his poems are more prominent, and this crime is even more difficult to wash away! If you want to solve this problem, I'm afraid Only..." Xie Qian stopped, looking at Zhu Youtang with deep meaning, but hesitating whether to say all of some words.

Zhu Youtang's heart moved slightly, but he put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Master Xie, you mean to muddy the water completely, right? I will immediately order Beizhen Fusi to collect all the poems of the officials in court, and you will help They are all looking for their faults, and Du Ming, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, can take care of them!"

"Ah?" Zhang Sheng heard that Zhu Youtang had started to solve the problem, so he opened his mouth belatedly.

Xie Qian found that he had really underestimated Zhu Youtang's wisdom earlier, and he had already understood the mystery without his own advice, so he bowed his hands respectfully and said: "The minister leads the decree!"

"The matter is settled like this, you guys step back first!" Seeing that the matter has found a solution, Zhu Youtang also breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why the matter got to this point, Wang Yue was bitten by the Ministry of Punishment, was actually related to his haste.

The civil official group and Wang Yue may not really be immortal, but they just learned that they will use Wang Yue as Prime Minister Yanzheng.

If I helped Wang Yue get rid of the crime in a calm manner beforehand, and then appointed Prime Minister Wang Yue's Yanzheng, then the first step would not have such a big resistance, and the second step would be a matter of course.

It's just that things are like this, and it is impossible to overthrow it and start over. After all, it is an underestimation of the fighting wisdom of the civil official group.

learn from mistakes.

Even if it comes from later generations, IQ and vision are naturally suppressed, but you have to plan everything before you act, and at the same time, you must step up to recruit more resourceful people for your own use.

In the afternoon, Erya walked in worriedly and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager asked you to go to Qingning Palace, and I heard that Marquis Qingyun is there!"
