Early Ming Dynasty: Turning Clouds and Rains into New Learning Saints

Chapter 90 Then I’ll die
He was a famous scholar and one of the three most outstanding poets in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties.What kind of words could make someone as famous as him stunned?
For a moment, everyone who looked at him was surprised.Even the seven people who were trying to make up the numbers forgot that they had not handed in the paper yet and looked at Song Lian very curiously.

For good poems, Mei Yin definitely has an urgent desire to see them.At this time, seeing his teacher like this made him even more itchy. He even forgot what the occasion was and said directly to Song Lian: "Teacher, is he a good one?"

Hearing the voice, Song Lian raised his head and glanced at him, then turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, obviously asking for the emperor's consent.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed a little tired, nodded and closed his eyes.

Seeing this, Song Lian looked at the paper, and then read it with emotion.

"The rain hits the pear blossoms and closes the door, and they live up to their youth, and they live up to their youth."

"Who cares about pleasure? The soul is ecstasy under the flowers, and the soul is ecstasy under the moon."

"Sorrow gathers eyebrows to frown all day long, thousands of weeping marks, ten thousand weeping marks."

"Looking at the sky at dawn and looking at the clouds at dusk, thinking about you when you walk, and thinking about you when you sit."

When he finished reading, even Zhu Di, who was least versed in writing, immediately fixed his eyes on Zhang Yifan.

He understood. This was clearly about how his eldest sister missed Zhang Yifan day and night in the palace!
It’s true, this poem is the representative work of Tang Bohu, one of the “Four Great Talents in the South of the Yangtze River” in the Ming Dynasty, “The Pear Blossoms Close the Door Deeply after a Cut of Plum Rain”. It is a very excellent graceful poem.

This poem uses a woman's tone to describe the pain of parting and longing for loved ones. The words flow gracefully, circle back and forth, and the meaning of the words swirls. It vividly presents the image of an infatuated woman in front of the readers, giving people a deep sense of artistic beauty.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang read this poem, he immediately thought of Zhu Jingjing's longing for Zhang Yifan, thinking that he was behind Zhu Jingjing's back, and she didn't even notice. He really missed him when he was walking, and he missed him when he was sitting!

It can even be said that other people, including Song Lian, who did not have Zhu Yuanzhang's feelings for his daughter, were shocked by the poem itself, as if there was an affectionate woman in front of them who was obsessed with her lover.

There have been rumors before that the eldest princess is actually in love with this boy from Liujiacun.Now that Zhang Yifan has written such a poem, this is a kind of testimony between them!

Who had the nerve to break them up?

No, Mei Yin burst into tears and said to Zhang Yifan: "It was my fault. I shouldn't have participated in this competition for the title of the most talented person in the world. I hope lovers will eventually get married!"

After hearing his words, everyone came back to their senses.

All of a sudden, their eyes were all on Zhang Yifan.In some eyes, there was sympathy, sympathy for the fate of the couple; in other eyes, there was shock, astonishment as to how this country boy could write such vivid poetry.
Looking at this scene, there is no need to write anything more about those seven soy sauce talents. Zhang Yifan became the consort, which is what everyone expected!
However, some people are still unwilling to give in.

This eldest princess should obviously be his, so why was her love snatched away by someone?

They are the right match. What about the promised match?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Li Qi is going crazy!Especially at the beginning, he thought it would be easy to get this prince-in-law, but he didn't expect that he would be crushed by Zhang Yifan in every aspect!
The bets in the casino are very different. Are they all blind?
Even though this boy from Liujia Village is good at talking, poetry is the most test of literary talent!He has only been enlightened for a month, how could he write such good poetry?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Thinking of this, Li Qi knelt down and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Your Majesty, this poem is absolutely impossible to be written by him. He has only been enlightened for a month. He must have copied other people's poems and used them to fool Your Majesty. Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"

He really had to go all out. After saying this, he kowtowed immediately, making a "dong dong dong" sound.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw it, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, and then he turned to look at Li Shanchang. Seeing that he was looking at him with doubts, he turned back and looked at Li Shanchang who was no longer kowtowing but was still kneeling there to ask for orders. Li Qi said: "Some people study for a lifetime, and the poems they produce are all bullshit; but some people only study for a month, but they can produce poems that others cannot produce in their lifetime. The difference between people There is such a big gap between them!"

As soon as he said this, Li Qi's face turned pale.Obviously, this is talking about the difference between him and Zhang Yifan!
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him, turned to look at Zhu Biao and said: "Bring that thing over and show it to the Grand Master, so as not to think that I am speaking unfairly!"

When Zhu Biao heard this, he knew what his father meant.He took out Zhang Yifan's "Disciple Rules" from his sleeve, walked over and handed it into Li Shanchang's hand.

Li Shanchang was a little confused, so he took the "Disciple Rules" that had been bound into a volume. Just by looking at it, he recognized that it was Zhang Yifan's handwriting.

There is no way, Zhang Yifan's handwriting is very unique and can be recognized at a glance.

So, he immediately read the content.

This article was easy to understand. Li Shanchang read it quickly. Then he looked shocked and turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang said to him: "Zhang Yifan started enlightenment a month ago. After learning "The Thousand-Character Classic", "Hundred Family Surnames" and "The Analects of Confucius", he wrote the "Disciple Regulations" to facilitate enlightenment. Therefore, some people are incomparable. I am not surprised at all that Zhang Yifan was able to write this poem!"

What he said made Zhang Yifan feel very ashamed.It’s really too much to praise!
But on the surface, he stood there, motionless, and seemed to be taking it calmly!
At this time, he already knew that the "Disciple Rules" he wrote down casually did not exist in this era.I accidentally copied a copy from later generations, which can be regarded as avoiding loss!

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at Queen Ma and said something in a low voice. Then he saw Queen Ma nodding with a smile on her face, so he turned back, looked at Zhang Yifan, and said seriously: "I have made up my mind, I will order Zhang Yifan to be my wife." My eldest son-in-law, my consort." We have finally decided on this marriage!

Hearing this, Zhang Yifan was very happy.No matter what, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately knelt down and said: "Son-in-law Zhang Yifan has met his father and mother!"

"..." Upon hearing his words, everyone present was immediately speechless.

This is the emperor and empress, not the ordinary mother-in-law and mother-in-law. Should she be called that?
But they soon remembered that, by the way, this was a country boy from Liujia Village, and it was normal for him not to understand etiquette.

For Zhu Yuanzhang, he and Empress Ma were more accustomed to ordinary people.Hearing Zhang Yifan calling himself son-in-law and calling them father and mother didn't feel too out of the ordinary.

"Get up!" Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly, "You won't say I'm ruthless behind your back now, will you?"

"No, I didn't!" Zhang Yifan immediately denied after hearing this, and then he went to make Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy!

Zhu Yuanzhang just said this, then turned to look at Li Shanchang, and said in a meaningful voice: "Grand Master, regarding the etiquette of the Prince Consort, you will take the lead and discuss a charter with the Ministry of Rites and the East Palace, but good?"

Many etiquette in the Ming Dynasty were formulated with Li Shanchang's participation.Now that the Ming Dynasty has not married a princess, it is reasonable for people like Li Shanchang to continue to formulate what kind of regulations there should be.

But the key issue is that Li Shanchang was originally determined to win this great prince-in-law, and he spent a lot of thought on it.

Unexpectedly, the position of the great prince consort was actually snatched away by a country boy, and the country boy even humiliated him.

Now it's good, he still has to be busy with this country boy's marriage. Is this a slap in the face?

However, Zhu Yuanzhang stared at him and spoke, although it seemed to be in a discussion tone.However, Li Shanchang knew that he could not refuse.

Even if there is a thousand reluctances in my heart, I have no choice but to accept the decree.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and said: "I heard people say that the Grand Master is very small-minded, but the Grand Master is able to accept this matter regardless of previous suspicions. I think whoever dares to say that to the Grand Master in the future will not be treated lightly!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Li Shanchang was speechless again. Ganqing was still waiting for him here. It was his fault that he didn't hesitate.

Otherwise, not only would his son not be able to get the position of Prince Consort, but he would also lose his reputation and be labeled as a petty person?

Thinking like this, he knew that he not only had to handle the arrangement of marrying the princess, but he also had to handle it well and beautifully!

Does this count as meeting your nemesis?

Li Shanchang sighed in his heart and had to walk over, pretending to be generous, and first congratulated Zhang Yifan.

When other people saw this, they also congratulated Zhang Yifan. Suddenly, the atmosphere became cheerful.

Queen Ma did remember it, and immediately ordered a palace maid to report the news to Zhu Jingjing.

………………

Today was the day to choose the consort. As the person involved, Zhu Jingjing was confined to her own house and was not allowed to go out.

Empress Ma specially arranged for her eldest daughter, her first daughter Princess Ningguo (not titled at this time, but her name was not found) to accompany Zhu Jingjing to avoid any situation.

As a result, Zhu Jingjing did not become impatient. Instead, she painted in her room. Of course, the paintings were all portraits of Zhang Yifan.There are various aspects and various scenes.

Princess Ning Guo was a little curious when she saw her, and immediately asked her: "Sister, are you not worried at all?"

"What are you worried about?" Zhu Jingjing listened and continued to draw while saying, "Brother Fan will definitely get the first place!"

"What if it's not him?"

When Zhu Jingjing heard this, she stopped with the brush in her hand, and then started painting again. At the same time, she replied calmly: "Then I'll die!"
