Long Yintian couldn't help but get angry again.
☆, the power of thunder
The first memorial that Long Yintian picked up, patiently read it from the beginning to the end, except for the eulogizing and flashy rhetoric, he was stunned to understand what it was trying to say in this notebook, so why not let him Feeling angry?
You must know that Long Yintian always likes to be simple, clear, and fast when doing things. It doesn't matter what he usually writes some poems and songs, but this memorial is still written like this, he can't tolerate anything.
Throwing the notebooks on the table casually, Long Yintian issued an order directly and arbitrarily: "Gao Wuyong, pass on my oral order: all the notebooks submitted by the Six Departments will be returned and rewritten, and all the rewritten notebooks must be presented tomorrow morning." Come up, as long as there are any more verbose, flashy, and irrelevant facts, they will definitely be severely punished."
"Cha." Gao Wuyong didn't know what kind of madness the emperor was having, but after all, the purpose was there, and as a slave, he was just passing on a message.
Due to the death of Empress Xiaoxian, the government affairs of various ministries have accumulated a lot, and there are even several boxes of papers left by the military aircraft department, but Long Yintian just made a brief decree and tossed all the officials in the capital. , complaining endlessly.
Each of them stayed up late to light the lamps, desperately rewriting the memorial, for fear of offending Long Yan if they failed to hand in the paper tomorrow morning, the six yamen, which should be deserted at night, became uncharacteristically lively.
How could Long Yintian not know the accumulation of government affairs in the past few days, even if he didn't know, he could guess it, and he chose to make an order at this time, obviously he was deliberately taking this opportunity to beat and beat Those big and small officials.
This is also in line with Long Yintian's temper: "If I have a hard time, then no one else will have a good time!"
Long Yintian had a good night's sleep this night, because his soul and this body have not been fused together for a long time, and they are still in the running-in stage, so he will feel tired faster than before. When he was the king of the Qinglong Kingdom, he hadn't slept for ten days because of the war, but he was still in good spirits, without any signs of fatigue.
After finishing his breakfast the next morning, Long Yintian changed his clothes under the service of the servants. Because the queen died, he had to stop court for nine days according to the proposal of the prime minister, Minister of Funeral Rituals, and still follow the rules of the day. The system of the month is 27 days.
Although he himself hates white very much, but the current situation is special, so he can only endure it for a few days.
When he came to the imperial study room, Long Yintian saw a neat stack of memorials on the desk at a glance. According to Gao Wuyong's return, these memorials were all presented early this morning.
With a slight nod, he sat directly behind the desk and began to look through one by one. Although the contents of these notebooks were still far from the memorials he imagined, they were much better than yesterday Now, at least more than half of those flashy things are missing, and it only takes a cursory glance to make people understand what the memorial is about to report.
Long Yintian was not in a hurry, after all, food had to be eaten bite by bite, the road had to be walked step by step, and changes had to be gradual.
He picked up the writing brush while looking at the memorial, and wrote some long or short comments at the end of each notebook, and he put aside those notebooks that had no practical significance.
After reading all of them, he ordered Gao Wuyong to return those meaningless papers to the various ministries, and seriously warned them that if such meaningless papers were submitted again, the official who submitted the papers would take them back. Copy him ten thousand times.
However, he also picked out a few well-written notebooks at random, and not only published six volumes, but also rewarded those officials heavily.
Long Yintian's move caused a big disturbance in the court, and everyone was puzzled. Why did the emperor suddenly change his temperament without even a single sign? You must know that Qianlong used to like him the most. This kind of eulogy is something that officials at all levels do to please the emperor.
However, this move of Long Yintian has won the support of a large number of officials. After all, every time he writes a booklet, he can save a lot of useless things, which not only saves time and effort, but also improves the efficiency of various ministries. Only a fool will object to a good thing.
It was precisely because of this that for the first time, those censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not register their objection to the emperor's actions.
Taking advantage of the few days of leaving the court, Long Yintian basically finished processing the papers presented by the general's office, and gained a deeper understanding of the entire Qing Dynasty. He also saw many hidden dangers that Qianlong had never noticed before. There have been some symptoms, the most serious of which is the corruption of officials and deception.
In terms of corruption, it has existed since the reign of Emperor Kangxi, especially in the last years of Kangxi, when the treasury's fiscal deficit was quite considerable.
However, Lord Yongzheng, who succeeded to the throne, worked hard for half his life to clean up a crumbling court, so that there was a saying among the people that "in the Yongzheng Dynasty, there were no officials and unclear", and it also eliminated the deficit for many years. It filled the treasury and left Qianlong a great country.
However, Qianlong was not a good emperor who could keep his business. In just a few decades, most of the treasury was lost, and the corruption of officials became more and more serious.
Although "it is not too late to make up for it", Long Yintian does not intend to use the method of Lord Yongzheng. In his opinion, the effect of that method is too slow, and he does not have that kind of patience. His usual way of doing things.
Thinking of this, Long Yintian felt that it was time for him to use the blood drops and sticky sticks left by Lord Yongzheng. After all, these secret service agencies are still very useful in many cases, the key depends on him. How did the emperor use it.
In the first morning court after Empress Xiaoxian's funeral, Long Yintian promulgated a decree that had been drawn up without saying anything. In the first dynasty, the early court is exempted from the rest of the time, and the time of the early court is also changed from Maoshi to Chenshi.
The so-called small court refers to first-rank officials (including principals and subordinates) in Beijing and the emperor's relatives coming to meet the emperor, while the big court is the same as the morning court in peacetime, requiring hundreds of officials to come to worship and discuss political affairs.
It is true that Long Yintian is a diligent emperor who loves the people and is good at governing the country, but at the same time he is also an emperor who knows how to enjoy life and is very resourceful. Otherwise, he would have been exhausted to death by the complicated government affairs of Qinglong Kingdom.
Once this decree was promulgated, it immediately attracted opposition from many officials, among which the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the old people in the clan opposed the most fiercely. They were ancestral family law and etiquette. After a big deal, in the final analysis, I hope that Long Yintian can take back his life.
Long Yintian was very patient, no matter who had something to say, he would agree to it, and his face was still expressionless, showing neither happiness nor anger.
In fact, he didn't listen to what those old guys were saying at all, but observed the civil and military officials standing below through this first morning court, and used Qianlong's memory as a reference.
Moreover, he also discovered that the decree he promulgated actually had many people who agreed with it and few people who opposed it, but those who agreed seemed to have some concerns, so they didn't dare to stand up and express themselves Attitude.
But those old stubborn people are really good enough to talk, they are still chattering there for a full hour, no matter how patient Long Yintian is, at this moment his heart is also angry.
So, he stood up directly and waved his hand, asking the imperial guards to gag all these stubborn guys and fork them out of the door, making the huge hall instantly clean.
Although the hall was completely silent, even a needle could be heard, but the atmosphere was indescribably weird.
Almost all the civil and military officials below were in danger, and they didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that the wrath of thunder would come to their heads, and those officials who still had something to say also closed their mouths tightly. Although it is true that political affairs are important, his own life is even more important.
Even the prince Hong Zhou, who had always had a hippie smile and no decent behavior, changed from his old style, keeping his head down and looking at his nose, nose, nose, nose, nose and heart, trying to minimize his own sense of existence, just to act as a perfect background.
In fact, Hongzhou's heart was beating constantly, doubts came one after another, after all, a few days ago, he, the emperor's elder brother, had just tossed all the officials big and small in the whole capital, and today one of them came to court again. out.
To be honest, he really didn't see what the emperor's brother wanted to do. I'm afraid the only thing that could explain it was that he, the emperor's brother, smoked again, and this time he smoked in a good place.
Moreover, Hong Zhou also realized that the methods of the emperor's elder brother these two times were very similar to Lord Kangxi's, decisive in killing and decisive in gangsterism. If anyone dares to contradict the emperor now, he should just wash his neck and wait for death. Not everyone can afford the power of thunder.
"Ai Qing, do you still have this performance?" Long Yintian looked around the crowd expressionlessly with his hands behind his back. Although he couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he was actually happy in his heart. Hehe, especially when he saw how the officials below kept silent to him, he was even more satisfied.
Long Yintian has always believed that being a monarch should have unshakable majesty, no matter what is right or wrong, once the imperial decree is issued, everyone must implement it unconditionally, otherwise he doesn't mind using bloody means to make these people look good Know who is the emperor.
Quiet, nothing but quiet.
These ministers are not stupid. Seeing that the emperor doesn't even care about those clan members, they will surely die if they become leaders. It's half a day, so I can't delay the business.
And those old officials were shocked by Long Yintian's look, and they almost had a heart attack from being frightened. The little people in their hearts couldn't help crying: "Your Majesty, don't scare me any more." I'm a humble minister, my body can't withstand your dragon prestige...'
After a long while, Long Yintian saw that no one came out to answer, so he waved his hand casually and said: "Since there is nothing wrong, let's retreat."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the apse without waiting for the eunuch to speak.
Gao Wuyong saw that the emperor was about to leave, so he hurriedly said in a high-pitched voice, "Retire!"
Then, he hurriedly followed Long Yintian's footsteps and left the main hall of Qianqing Palace. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It's going to be another few years.
☆, rebuild sticky rod
Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, the emperor's decree and the way he treated those ministers during the early dynasty were like a season of spring breeze, and soon spread throughout the harem. This not only made the concubines suspicious, but also made the queen mother anxious.
After all, changing the early dynasty system not only changed the rules passed down from the ancestors, but also might make those literati take the opportunity to make a big fuss, saying that the emperor neglected political affairs and was greedy for pleasure, which would damage the emperor's reputation.
Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager couldn't sit still any longer, she slammed down the table heavily, and ordered the eunuch in a panic to invite the emperor to come to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to have a speech, and she couldn't help panting after speaking.
Seeing this, Qing'er at the side immediately stepped forward to help the Queen Mother calm down, and comforted the Queen Mother in a tactful tone: "Don't be angry, old ancestor, the emperor must have his reasons for doing this, you should ask about it anyway." It's not too late to say."
The queen mother sighed heavily, and after a while she said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Qing'er, you are still young, and you don't understand the pros and cons here. After all, the emperor is the flesh and blood of the Ai family. Did the Ai family watch the emperor make mistakes without reminding them? What's more, the inheritance passed down by the ancestors must not be ruined in vain, otherwise you will have to face the ancestors after the death of the Ai family, how to What about the Yongzheng who went first?"
As soon as Qing'er heard that the Queen Mother had even said this, she understood that the matter might not be trivial. Although she still didn't understand what was going on, she was very sensible and didn't say anything, just quietly helping the Queen Mother Hammering legs and rubbing shoulders, so that the queen mother can feel a little better.
Long Yintian doesn't know about these things that happened in the harem now, because he went directly to the imperial study room after he came down to court, sent away all the servants, closed the door, and strictly ordered no one to come in and disturb him, even Gao Wuyong could only stand outside the door and wait.
At this moment in the imperial study room, apart from Long Yintian, there is only one imperial guard who knelt on the ground and bowed his head silently.
And this guard is the stick guard who is on duty at the Yujing Pavilion today, his alias is Yilaqi, and he is also one of the only senior members left at the stick.
Before Qianlong didn't like the organization of sticking rods very much, and thought that the existence of this kind of spy organization was a stain on his political achievements, so he put it on the shelf for many years, and dismissed those people outside the palace, leaving only The only remaining manpower in the palace.
Long Yintian looked at Yilaqi first, and felt that this person should be reliable, so he said: "Ilaqi, can you still contact those people who were disbanded at the sticky stick?"
Yilaqi was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Long Yintian called him here just to ask about this matter, but as he thought about it deeply, his heart immediately turned cold.
Because he knew that the emperor had always hated the existence of the sticky poles. Although he had disbanded the outer part in the early years, the emperor would kill them one day if they were not in order. After all, only the dead are the safest, but he Unexpectedly, this day came so quickly.
Although there were many thoughts in his heart, Yilaqi still upheld the duty of a courtier, and replied respectfully: "Return to the emperor, the slave can still contact them."
Long Yintian nodded slightly. He knew that Ilaqi was telling the truth, because all secret service agencies would have their special contact information. The question was also for a preliminary test, to see if Iraqi was trustworthy enough for him.
Afterwards, he sent a mission to Ilaqi: "In this case, I will give you three days. You must call back all the people who used to stick the stick. I plan to rebuild the stick stick."
'What... what! ?I... Did I hear correctly? '
Long Yintian's words were like a thunderbolt, which made Yilaqi's originally calm heart turn into a huge wave in an instant.
In the past, seeing Qianlong dismantling the sticky poles and filling up the secret chamber of Lama Temple, he was so heartbroken. After all, the sticky sticks were built up with blood and sweat by his Ama after following Lord Yongzheng. Yes, but Qianlong was the emperor after all, and the king and ministers had to die.
If it weren't for the fact that his Ama had made great contributions to Lord Yongzheng, he might not have escaped the fate of being dismissed.
He thought that this was the only way he would live his life, and the worst would be to die, but he didn't expect that he would receive such a decree today, which instantly made his eyes blush and filled with mixed feelings.
Since Iraqi kept his head down all the time, Long Yintian couldn't see his expression clearly, so naturally he couldn't guess what was going on in his heart.
But after a while, Long Yintian didn't hear any reply, so he asked again with some doubts: "Iraqi, why didn't you reply to me?"
Iraqi was startled, and then realized that he was being rude in front of the imperial court, so he hurriedly kowtowed and confessed: "The slave deserves death, please the emperor make atonement."
Long Yintian couldn't help chuckling, it seems that his words frightened this interesting little guard: "Okay, I'm not that small. You can handle the things I entrusted to you. ?"
Only then did Iraqi straighten his upper body, took a deep breath, looked up at Long Yintian's eyes, and said firmly, "Your servant will definitely do it."
Looking at the way Ilaqi replied, Long Yintian was a little surprised, because Ilaqi's approach is the same as that of Qinglong Kingdom's courtiers, that is, they must look at the king's face when they answer. Eyes, you can't hide and dodge, otherwise you will be deceiving the emperor.
Because the eyes are the windows of the soul, one can see a lot of things through a person's eyes, especially Long Yintian was still in charge of the Long Yugong at that time, and he could easily see through the eyes of his subjects to see through their hearts. Only the royal family has talents is exceptional.
There was a smile on his face at last, Long Yintian thought of another thing, and just took this opportunity to order: "By the way, I also plan to replace all the hidden guards in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and then all Replaced by the blood droplet. As for the former hidden guards, they will be assigned to the sticks. If the background is not clean, just deal with it. You are also responsible for this matter. I will give you five days. Is there any difficulty? ?”
When Ilaqi heard this, he understood the meaning behind Long Yintian's words, so he replied solemnly: "Return to the emperor, five days is enough time, and this servant will definitely complete this matter on time."
"Okay, you go down and do it." After finishing speaking, Long Yintian picked up the memorial on the table and began to deal with today's government affairs.
"Cha. The slave is leaving." Iraqi kowtowed seriously, then got up and left the imperial study room, and his footsteps were obviously much more hurried than when he came.
One is because of his eagerness, and the other is the fact that he has too many things to do in the past few days, and none of them can go wrong, and this is also a rare opportunity. Naturally, it can be reused by the emperor.
Not long after Yilaqi left, Gao Wuyong came in and reported that the Empress Dowager had sent someone to pass on a message, saying that the emperor had to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace after handling the political affairs.
Long Yintian frowned slightly after hearing this, he didn't need to think carefully to guess that someone must be gossiping in front of the Queen Mother, presumably it was because of this morning's event.
Although it is said that the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, the harem and the court are always inextricably linked. The concubines must not have the courage to discuss political affairs, but if they make some small trips secretly and put eye drops in front of the queen mother, they still It can be done.
He raised his hand and gently stroked his lower lip with his fingertips, and Long Yintian ordered Gao Wuyong to pass on the message, saying that he would go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay his respects after finishing the political affairs in the afternoon, and asked the Queen Mother to send the concubines of each palace Call everyone, let's have a little fun, after all, some time ago, Empress Xiaoxian went to the funeral, and the palace was really much deserted.
Gao Wuyong didn't know what Long Yintian wanted to do, and he didn't have the guts to speculate on the holy will, so he hurried to pass the message after receiving the order, but he was always thinking about how to reply to the palaces on the way. girls.
Being so disturbed by this incident, Long Yintian also lost the mind to deal with political affairs. He hastily read the booklet in his hand and left it for Zhu Zhu, then got up and prepared to go out for a walk, and at the same time, he was thinking about How to beat those restless concubines in the harem and how to communicate with the queen mother.
Unknowingly, Long Yintian strolled to a place not far from the upper study room, remembering that he was busy with political affairs recently, and had never checked his brothers' homework, so he ordered the eunuch beside him to pass the report, while he himself He walked directly into the study room.
Hearing that the emperor is coming, these elder brothers dare not neglect, they all jumped off their chairs, knelt down to salute, and said in unison: "I send my regards to Huang Ama, Huang Ama is auspicious."
Ji Xiaolan hastily put down the book in her hand, and stepped forward to salute: "My humble minister kowtows to the emperor."
"Get up." Long Yintian never cared much about these vain rituals. He just glanced at them lightly, then went to sit down on the main seat, and said with a faint smile: "Ji Xiaolan, I got up on a whim today Suddenly, didn't you interrupt your class, did you?"
'Hey, look at what the emperor asked, how should I answer this question?If you say don’t disturb, it’s obviously impossible. You, the big Buddha, sit here, buddies, you still have the mind to read; if you say disturb, you must be unhappy when you hear it. Isn't it still me? '
Ji Xiaolan was aggrieved by Long Yintian's one-word question, but he had to answer the emperor's question, so he had to answer the wrong question: "Your Majesty Mingjian, all brothers are very smart and studious, and they are also very hardworking on weekdays. , never bother to say anything."
'As expected of a bachelor, the reaction is quite fast. "Long Yintian just asked that question on purpose, the purpose is to see if this Ji Xiaolan is a smart person, if he has some tricks and careful thinking in doing things, if it is really the kind of pedantic, only know how to study hard People, he doesn't mind changing teachers for these princes.
However, it was not so easy for Long Yintian to let Ji Xiaolan go. While smiling like a spring breeze, he directly slammed down: "In this case, then you can test the elder brothers here for me, and let me see Let's see how they are doing."
☆、Questions and answers in the study
'Come on, the emperor made it clear today that he doesn't intend to spare me.This is a question for my elder brother. If it is done well, it should be done. If it is not done well, it will offend people on both sides.Sigh... In the morning, I was gloating to see those old stubborn people slumped, but it turned out that it was my turn this time, it really is a turn of events...'
In her heart, Ji Xiaolan blamed Long Yintian a lot, but she still accepted the order respectfully on her face: "My minister obeys the order."
The first one to be asked was the fourth elder brother Yongxie, because he was the oldest among all the elder brothers present, but he was only nine years old this year.
Hearing that he was the first person to take the test, Yong Xun seemed a little nervous, not only was he clutching the hem of his clothes tightly with his hands, but even his immature face showed a look of helplessness and anxiety.
After all, Yongzhang was the oldest in the study room before, so Yongxuan was always the second when asking questions, and he had more time to prepare, so he was relatively less nervous.
Ji Xiaolan's questions are also very good. If something is difficult, Yongxuan will definitely not be able to answer it, but if it is easy, the emperor will not be able to pass it, so he asked a passage from "The Analects of Confucius": "Confucius said:' No haste, no small gains. Haste makes waste, and small gains lead to great failure.' May I ask the fourth elder brother what is your opinion on this statement?"
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "half of the "Analects of Confucius" knows the world". It can be seen that "The Analects of Confucius" is still very inspiring and instructive in terms of political affairs. Difficult and simple, no matter whether it is from the emperor or elder brother, there is nothing wrong with it, it can be said to be quite good.
After Long Yintian listened to Ji Xiaolan's question, he was more satisfied with him as a bachelor. In Qianlong's memory, Ji Xiaolan was also a talented and well-educated person. It seems that it is quite appropriate for him to personally teach these brothers to read. of.
Afterwards, Long Yintian turned his gaze to Yongxie, waiting for him to answer this question.
Seeing Long Yintian staring at him all the time, Yongxie became even more nervous, afraid that he might not answer well, so he stumbled when he spoke: "Hui... Huihuang Ama, this sentence...means... ...for politicians..."
Before Yongxie could finish the first sentence, Long Yintian interrupted him directly, his tone was quite gentle and kind, even with a little imperceptible pampering: "Yongxie, don't be nervous and speak slowly. , even if you say something wrong, I will not punish you."
Although he was speaking in front of Yongxuan, he clearly felt an unfriendly gaze staring at Yongxuan. The person is the fifth elder brother Yongqi.
Yong Xie looked at Long Yintian in surprise, it was the first time in his memory that Huang Ama talked to him so kindly, so the tension in his heart disappeared immediately, and he spoke smoothly Many: "Return to Huang Ama's words. My son thinks that this sentence means that politicians should not be quick in dealing with government affairs, and don't be greedy for immediate benefits. If you are quick, you will not be able to achieve the desired goal, and if you are greedy for small profits, you will not be able to achieve great things. Instead, you should be broad-minded. In addition, I also believe that when dealing with government affairs, we should be cautious, go deep into the reality, listen and see more, and understand the truth, so as not to make mistakes. This is the so-called "learn more and doubt more, and be careful about the rest, and few are special" ;If you see many deficiencies, but do the rest cautiously, you will have few regrets. If you speak few words, and do few regrets, you will be among them.'”
Long Yintian nodded in satisfaction. Yongxie could not only understand the meaning of the original sentence, but also think of other aspects from it. It can be seen that he learned well, so he praised him without hesitation: "Well, the answer is That’s right, I’ll reward you with a calligraphy and painting that is close to calligraphy.”
This is the first time for Yongxie to be praised by Huang Ama, and she is very happy in her heart. Immediately, her immature face smiles like a flower, her face becomes rosier instantly, and her eyes are full of confidence and enthusiasm The feeling of admiration for Long Yintian.
However, he did not forget the rules, and immediately accepted the reward: "My son thanked Huang Ama."
Seeing that Yongxie was rewarded by Huang Ama, the jealousy in Yongqi's eyes became even stronger, but he didn't realize that Long Yintian and Ji Xiaolan were watching his every move.
The next person to answer the question is the fifth elder brother Yongqi. Although he has only studied in the upper study for a year and a half, he has at least finished all of "The Analects of Confucius".
Seeing that it was her turn, Yong Qi immediately stood up straight, and raised her head, trying her best to show calm and self-confidence, trying her best to compare Yong Xun.
Although Ji Xiaolan didn't like Yong Qi's demeanor, she didn't think about embarrassing him. The topic she proposed was a relatively simple sentence in "The Analects of Confucius": "Confucius said: "Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning It will be perilous." May I ask what the fifth elder brother means by this sentence?"
As soon as Yongqi heard that this question was something she was very familiar with, she became more confident and replied quite confidently: "Huang Ama, this sentence means that only emphasis is placed on learning and not on thinking, so it's just It is possible to be deceived and fall into confusion; if you only pay attention to thinking but not learning, you may lead to fatigue and danger due to going astray. I believe that only by combining learning and thinking can you apply what you have learned.”
Long Yintian watched Yongqi's every move, and after listening to his answer, he just nodded slightly, and did not praise Yongxie as much, but he still rewarded him: "Well, Reward the five princes with a wishful handle."
Seeing that she had also won the reward, Yong Qi immediately received the reward happily, and when she got up, she gave Yong Xing a showy look.And Yongxie just glanced back at him lightly, then lowered his head, without any unnecessary reaction.
In the eyes of the servants who waited nearby, the fifth elder brother Yongqi received more rewards than the fourth elder brother Yongxuan. How could a painting and calligraphy be as valuable as a wishful handle?
But Ji Xiaolan is probably the only person in the upper study who really understands Long Yintian's intentions.
The emperor gave Yongxie the calligraphy and painting made by himself, which is enough to show how much he valued Yongxie; but what was given to Yongqi was just a nice-sounding Ruyi, and in essence, it was nothing more than a copper-smelling knife. It's just a thing, how can it be compared with the emperor's calligraphy? Isn't it an immediate opinion on which is more important?
The last one to answer is the sixth elder brother Yong Rong. He just entered the study room for half a year this year, and he is still in the stage of enlightenment, so Ji Xiaolan didn't ask any more questions, but asked Yong Rong to memorize a section of "San Zi Jing" That's all.
Yongrong is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. A pair of big black shiny eyes stared at Long Yintian adoringly for a long time, and then reluctantly recited a section of "Three Character Classic" according to Ji Xiaolan's words, and after the recitation After that, he said in a cheerful child's voice: "Huang Ama, I have finished memorizing, what do you want to reward me?"
Except for Long Yintian, Yong Rong's words instantly changed the faces of everyone in the study room. There were those who were worried, those who were afraid, and those who were gloating, but Long Yintian took a look at it unexpectedly. good show.
Seeing that Yong Rong was about to anger Huang Ama, Yong Xun had no other choice but to kneel down with a "dong" sound, and hurriedly pleaded for his younger brother: "Huang Ama, Yong Rong You are still young and speak freely, I beg Huang Ama not to blame Yong Rong."
After listening to Yong Xun's words, Yong Rong also realized that he seemed to have done something wrong, so he immediately went to Yong Xun and knelt down together, drooping his head and saying in a glutinous voice: "I know I'm wrong, please the emperor." Ama punished."
Yong Qi stood aside and watched coldly, without saying a word from the beginning to the end, and the surrounding servants also lowered their heads, trying to minimize their sense of existence and avoid being affected by the emperor's anger.
It was Ji Xiaolan who seemed to have something to say, but just as he took a step forward, Long Yintian gave him a sharp look and warned him coldly: "Ji Xiaolan, shut up."
Ji Xiaolan sighed helplessly in her heart, had no choice but to retreat to her position, and looked at Brother Six sympathetically, and said in her heart: "Hey... Poor Brother Six, it's not that I don't want to help you, but right now There is nothing I can do about it, I can only continue to be the background honestly...'
Yong Xun saw that even Ji Xiaolan had been dismissed by Long Yintian, and his heart became more and more anxious and uneasy. He also didn't want Yong Xun to be rejected by Huang Ama because of this matter, although in this palace big brother The friendship is not so real, but he still has a good impression of Yongrong, a lovely younger brother.
Although the fifth elder brother Yongqi and Yongxie are about the same age, Yongqi has never liked to get close to their brothers, and seems to be full of hostility towards Yongzhang and Yongxie, so Yongxie is on the contrary with the younger Yongxie. Rong is much closer, and Yongzhang has always taken good care of him, so if he does not intercede for Yongrong at this moment, it is unreasonable.
Long Yintian is actually very satisfied with Yong Xun's performance, and no matter how true or not his brotherhood with Yong Xun is, his actions at the moment are correct, even if Yong Xun is just putting on a show , It is better than being said that their brother Ni Qiang has no brotherhood.
It's just that Long Yintian didn't make a sound all the time, and the expression on his face made people unable to see the joy or anger, because Yongrong's actions were indeed inappropriate. Not only would it easily cause misunderstanding by others, he might even be detained A hat that competes for favor is more likely to implicate the pure concubine as well.
Although Yong Rong is only six years old now, others will not treat him as just a child. After all, his identity is there, and some people wish that he would lose his favor early.
Kneeling on the ground for a long time, the knees are naturally uncomfortable. Yong Xun is a little older and can bear it, but Yong Xing can't. The cold air on the ground made his knees sting, and he couldn't bear it several times. He moved his numb legs slightly.
But because Long Yintian was still watching from above, he was both respectful and fearful in his heart, and he didn't dare to move too much, his deer-like eyes gradually fogged up.
After a while, when Yong Xun was about to plead for mercy again, Long Yintian finally broke the oppressive atmosphere, and said kindly: "Yong Xun, Yong Xun, you two, get up."
When Yong Xun heard that Long Yintian's tone didn't look angry, half of the worries in his heart were gone, at least Yong Xun would not lose his Sacred Heart because of this, but the punishment might still be unavoidable.
He obediently stood up from the ground, and tightened his legs hard, which relieved the stiffness of his legs a lot.
Yong Rong was still uneasy, he didn't know how Long Yintian would punish him later, but he still got up from the ground according to his words.
Perhaps it was because of kneeling on the ground for too long, Yong Rong only felt that her legs couldn't bear the strength, and her body was shaking.
☆, the power of thunder
The first memorial that Long Yintian picked up, patiently read it from the beginning to the end, except for the eulogizing and flashy rhetoric, he was stunned to understand what it was trying to say in this notebook, so why not let him Feeling angry?
You must know that Long Yintian always likes to be simple, clear, and fast when doing things. It doesn't matter what he usually writes some poems and songs, but this memorial is still written like this, he can't tolerate anything.
Throwing the notebooks on the table casually, Long Yintian issued an order directly and arbitrarily: "Gao Wuyong, pass on my oral order: all the notebooks submitted by the Six Departments will be returned and rewritten, and all the rewritten notebooks must be presented tomorrow morning." Come up, as long as there are any more verbose, flashy, and irrelevant facts, they will definitely be severely punished."
"Cha." Gao Wuyong didn't know what kind of madness the emperor was having, but after all, the purpose was there, and as a slave, he was just passing on a message.
Due to the death of Empress Xiaoxian, the government affairs of various ministries have accumulated a lot, and there are even several boxes of papers left by the military aircraft department, but Long Yintian just made a brief decree and tossed all the officials in the capital. , complaining endlessly.
Each of them stayed up late to light the lamps, desperately rewriting the memorial, for fear of offending Long Yan if they failed to hand in the paper tomorrow morning, the six yamen, which should be deserted at night, became uncharacteristically lively.
How could Long Yintian not know the accumulation of government affairs in the past few days, even if he didn't know, he could guess it, and he chose to make an order at this time, obviously he was deliberately taking this opportunity to beat and beat Those big and small officials.
This is also in line with Long Yintian's temper: "If I have a hard time, then no one else will have a good time!"
Long Yintian had a good night's sleep this night, because his soul and this body have not been fused together for a long time, and they are still in the running-in stage, so he will feel tired faster than before. When he was the king of the Qinglong Kingdom, he hadn't slept for ten days because of the war, but he was still in good spirits, without any signs of fatigue.
After finishing his breakfast the next morning, Long Yintian changed his clothes under the service of the servants. Because the queen died, he had to stop court for nine days according to the proposal of the prime minister, Minister of Funeral Rituals, and still follow the rules of the day. The system of the month is 27 days.
Although he himself hates white very much, but the current situation is special, so he can only endure it for a few days.
When he came to the imperial study room, Long Yintian saw a neat stack of memorials on the desk at a glance. According to Gao Wuyong's return, these memorials were all presented early this morning.
With a slight nod, he sat directly behind the desk and began to look through one by one. Although the contents of these notebooks were still far from the memorials he imagined, they were much better than yesterday Now, at least more than half of those flashy things are missing, and it only takes a cursory glance to make people understand what the memorial is about to report.
Long Yintian was not in a hurry, after all, food had to be eaten bite by bite, the road had to be walked step by step, and changes had to be gradual.
He picked up the writing brush while looking at the memorial, and wrote some long or short comments at the end of each notebook, and he put aside those notebooks that had no practical significance.
After reading all of them, he ordered Gao Wuyong to return those meaningless papers to the various ministries, and seriously warned them that if such meaningless papers were submitted again, the official who submitted the papers would take them back. Copy him ten thousand times.
However, he also picked out a few well-written notebooks at random, and not only published six volumes, but also rewarded those officials heavily.
Long Yintian's move caused a big disturbance in the court, and everyone was puzzled. Why did the emperor suddenly change his temperament without even a single sign? You must know that Qianlong used to like him the most. This kind of eulogy is something that officials at all levels do to please the emperor.
However, this move of Long Yintian has won the support of a large number of officials. After all, every time he writes a booklet, he can save a lot of useless things, which not only saves time and effort, but also improves the efficiency of various ministries. Only a fool will object to a good thing.
It was precisely because of this that for the first time, those censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate did not register their objection to the emperor's actions.
Taking advantage of the few days of leaving the court, Long Yintian basically finished processing the papers presented by the general's office, and gained a deeper understanding of the entire Qing Dynasty. He also saw many hidden dangers that Qianlong had never noticed before. There have been some symptoms, the most serious of which is the corruption of officials and deception.
In terms of corruption, it has existed since the reign of Emperor Kangxi, especially in the last years of Kangxi, when the treasury's fiscal deficit was quite considerable.
However, Lord Yongzheng, who succeeded to the throne, worked hard for half his life to clean up a crumbling court, so that there was a saying among the people that "in the Yongzheng Dynasty, there were no officials and unclear", and it also eliminated the deficit for many years. It filled the treasury and left Qianlong a great country.
However, Qianlong was not a good emperor who could keep his business. In just a few decades, most of the treasury was lost, and the corruption of officials became more and more serious.
Although "it is not too late to make up for it", Long Yintian does not intend to use the method of Lord Yongzheng. In his opinion, the effect of that method is too slow, and he does not have that kind of patience. His usual way of doing things.
Thinking of this, Long Yintian felt that it was time for him to use the blood drops and sticky sticks left by Lord Yongzheng. After all, these secret service agencies are still very useful in many cases, the key depends on him. How did the emperor use it.
In the first morning court after Empress Xiaoxian's funeral, Long Yintian promulgated a decree that had been drawn up without saying anything. In the first dynasty, the early court is exempted from the rest of the time, and the time of the early court is also changed from Maoshi to Chenshi.
The so-called small court refers to first-rank officials (including principals and subordinates) in Beijing and the emperor's relatives coming to meet the emperor, while the big court is the same as the morning court in peacetime, requiring hundreds of officials to come to worship and discuss political affairs.
It is true that Long Yintian is a diligent emperor who loves the people and is good at governing the country, but at the same time he is also an emperor who knows how to enjoy life and is very resourceful. Otherwise, he would have been exhausted to death by the complicated government affairs of Qinglong Kingdom.
Once this decree was promulgated, it immediately attracted opposition from many officials, among which the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the old people in the clan opposed the most fiercely. They were ancestral family law and etiquette. After a big deal, in the final analysis, I hope that Long Yintian can take back his life.
Long Yintian was very patient, no matter who had something to say, he would agree to it, and his face was still expressionless, showing neither happiness nor anger.
In fact, he didn't listen to what those old guys were saying at all, but observed the civil and military officials standing below through this first morning court, and used Qianlong's memory as a reference.
Moreover, he also discovered that the decree he promulgated actually had many people who agreed with it and few people who opposed it, but those who agreed seemed to have some concerns, so they didn't dare to stand up and express themselves Attitude.
But those old stubborn people are really good enough to talk, they are still chattering there for a full hour, no matter how patient Long Yintian is, at this moment his heart is also angry.
So, he stood up directly and waved his hand, asking the imperial guards to gag all these stubborn guys and fork them out of the door, making the huge hall instantly clean.
Although the hall was completely silent, even a needle could be heard, but the atmosphere was indescribably weird.
Almost all the civil and military officials below were in danger, and they didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that the wrath of thunder would come to their heads, and those officials who still had something to say also closed their mouths tightly. Although it is true that political affairs are important, his own life is even more important.
Even the prince Hong Zhou, who had always had a hippie smile and no decent behavior, changed from his old style, keeping his head down and looking at his nose, nose, nose, nose, nose and heart, trying to minimize his own sense of existence, just to act as a perfect background.
In fact, Hongzhou's heart was beating constantly, doubts came one after another, after all, a few days ago, he, the emperor's elder brother, had just tossed all the officials big and small in the whole capital, and today one of them came to court again. out.
To be honest, he really didn't see what the emperor's brother wanted to do. I'm afraid the only thing that could explain it was that he, the emperor's brother, smoked again, and this time he smoked in a good place.
Moreover, Hong Zhou also realized that the methods of the emperor's elder brother these two times were very similar to Lord Kangxi's, decisive in killing and decisive in gangsterism. If anyone dares to contradict the emperor now, he should just wash his neck and wait for death. Not everyone can afford the power of thunder.
"Ai Qing, do you still have this performance?" Long Yintian looked around the crowd expressionlessly with his hands behind his back. Although he couldn't see any joy or anger on his face, he was actually happy in his heart. Hehe, especially when he saw how the officials below kept silent to him, he was even more satisfied.
Long Yintian has always believed that being a monarch should have unshakable majesty, no matter what is right or wrong, once the imperial decree is issued, everyone must implement it unconditionally, otherwise he doesn't mind using bloody means to make these people look good Know who is the emperor.
Quiet, nothing but quiet.
These ministers are not stupid. Seeing that the emperor doesn't even care about those clan members, they will surely die if they become leaders. It's half a day, so I can't delay the business.
And those old officials were shocked by Long Yintian's look, and they almost had a heart attack from being frightened. The little people in their hearts couldn't help crying: "Your Majesty, don't scare me any more." I'm a humble minister, my body can't withstand your dragon prestige...'
After a long while, Long Yintian saw that no one came out to answer, so he waved his hand casually and said: "Since there is nothing wrong, let's retreat."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked towards the apse without waiting for the eunuch to speak.
Gao Wuyong saw that the emperor was about to leave, so he hurriedly said in a high-pitched voice, "Retire!"
Then, he hurriedly followed Long Yintian's footsteps and left the main hall of Qianqing Palace. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It's going to be another few years.
☆, rebuild sticky rod
Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, the emperor's decree and the way he treated those ministers during the early dynasty were like a season of spring breeze, and soon spread throughout the harem. This not only made the concubines suspicious, but also made the queen mother anxious.
After all, changing the early dynasty system not only changed the rules passed down from the ancestors, but also might make those literati take the opportunity to make a big fuss, saying that the emperor neglected political affairs and was greedy for pleasure, which would damage the emperor's reputation.
Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager couldn't sit still any longer, she slammed down the table heavily, and ordered the eunuch in a panic to invite the emperor to come to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to have a speech, and she couldn't help panting after speaking.
Seeing this, Qing'er at the side immediately stepped forward to help the Queen Mother calm down, and comforted the Queen Mother in a tactful tone: "Don't be angry, old ancestor, the emperor must have his reasons for doing this, you should ask about it anyway." It's not too late to say."
The queen mother sighed heavily, and after a while she said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "Qing'er, you are still young, and you don't understand the pros and cons here. After all, the emperor is the flesh and blood of the Ai family. Did the Ai family watch the emperor make mistakes without reminding them? What's more, the inheritance passed down by the ancestors must not be ruined in vain, otherwise you will have to face the ancestors after the death of the Ai family, how to What about the Yongzheng who went first?"
As soon as Qing'er heard that the Queen Mother had even said this, she understood that the matter might not be trivial. Although she still didn't understand what was going on, she was very sensible and didn't say anything, just quietly helping the Queen Mother Hammering legs and rubbing shoulders, so that the queen mother can feel a little better.
Long Yintian doesn't know about these things that happened in the harem now, because he went directly to the imperial study room after he came down to court, sent away all the servants, closed the door, and strictly ordered no one to come in and disturb him, even Gao Wuyong could only stand outside the door and wait.
At this moment in the imperial study room, apart from Long Yintian, there is only one imperial guard who knelt on the ground and bowed his head silently.
And this guard is the stick guard who is on duty at the Yujing Pavilion today, his alias is Yilaqi, and he is also one of the only senior members left at the stick.
Before Qianlong didn't like the organization of sticking rods very much, and thought that the existence of this kind of spy organization was a stain on his political achievements, so he put it on the shelf for many years, and dismissed those people outside the palace, leaving only The only remaining manpower in the palace.
Long Yintian looked at Yilaqi first, and felt that this person should be reliable, so he said: "Ilaqi, can you still contact those people who were disbanded at the sticky stick?"
Yilaqi was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that Long Yintian called him here just to ask about this matter, but as he thought about it deeply, his heart immediately turned cold.
Because he knew that the emperor had always hated the existence of the sticky poles. Although he had disbanded the outer part in the early years, the emperor would kill them one day if they were not in order. After all, only the dead are the safest, but he Unexpectedly, this day came so quickly.
Although there were many thoughts in his heart, Yilaqi still upheld the duty of a courtier, and replied respectfully: "Return to the emperor, the slave can still contact them."
Long Yintian nodded slightly. He knew that Ilaqi was telling the truth, because all secret service agencies would have their special contact information. The question was also for a preliminary test, to see if Iraqi was trustworthy enough for him.
Afterwards, he sent a mission to Ilaqi: "In this case, I will give you three days. You must call back all the people who used to stick the stick. I plan to rebuild the stick stick."
'What... what! ?I... Did I hear correctly? '
Long Yintian's words were like a thunderbolt, which made Yilaqi's originally calm heart turn into a huge wave in an instant.
In the past, seeing Qianlong dismantling the sticky poles and filling up the secret chamber of Lama Temple, he was so heartbroken. After all, the sticky sticks were built up with blood and sweat by his Ama after following Lord Yongzheng. Yes, but Qianlong was the emperor after all, and the king and ministers had to die.
If it weren't for the fact that his Ama had made great contributions to Lord Yongzheng, he might not have escaped the fate of being dismissed.
He thought that this was the only way he would live his life, and the worst would be to die, but he didn't expect that he would receive such a decree today, which instantly made his eyes blush and filled with mixed feelings.
Since Iraqi kept his head down all the time, Long Yintian couldn't see his expression clearly, so naturally he couldn't guess what was going on in his heart.
But after a while, Long Yintian didn't hear any reply, so he asked again with some doubts: "Iraqi, why didn't you reply to me?"
Iraqi was startled, and then realized that he was being rude in front of the imperial court, so he hurriedly kowtowed and confessed: "The slave deserves death, please the emperor make atonement."
Long Yintian couldn't help chuckling, it seems that his words frightened this interesting little guard: "Okay, I'm not that small. You can handle the things I entrusted to you. ?"
Only then did Iraqi straighten his upper body, took a deep breath, looked up at Long Yintian's eyes, and said firmly, "Your servant will definitely do it."
Looking at the way Ilaqi replied, Long Yintian was a little surprised, because Ilaqi's approach is the same as that of Qinglong Kingdom's courtiers, that is, they must look at the king's face when they answer. Eyes, you can't hide and dodge, otherwise you will be deceiving the emperor.
Because the eyes are the windows of the soul, one can see a lot of things through a person's eyes, especially Long Yintian was still in charge of the Long Yugong at that time, and he could easily see through the eyes of his subjects to see through their hearts. Only the royal family has talents is exceptional.
There was a smile on his face at last, Long Yintian thought of another thing, and just took this opportunity to order: "By the way, I also plan to replace all the hidden guards in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and then all Replaced by the blood droplet. As for the former hidden guards, they will be assigned to the sticks. If the background is not clean, just deal with it. You are also responsible for this matter. I will give you five days. Is there any difficulty? ?”
When Ilaqi heard this, he understood the meaning behind Long Yintian's words, so he replied solemnly: "Return to the emperor, five days is enough time, and this servant will definitely complete this matter on time."
"Okay, you go down and do it." After finishing speaking, Long Yintian picked up the memorial on the table and began to deal with today's government affairs.
"Cha. The slave is leaving." Iraqi kowtowed seriously, then got up and left the imperial study room, and his footsteps were obviously much more hurried than when he came.
One is because of his eagerness, and the other is the fact that he has too many things to do in the past few days, and none of them can go wrong, and this is also a rare opportunity. Naturally, it can be reused by the emperor.
Not long after Yilaqi left, Gao Wuyong came in and reported that the Empress Dowager had sent someone to pass on a message, saying that the emperor had to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace after handling the political affairs.
Long Yintian frowned slightly after hearing this, he didn't need to think carefully to guess that someone must be gossiping in front of the Queen Mother, presumably it was because of this morning's event.
Although it is said that the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, the harem and the court are always inextricably linked. The concubines must not have the courage to discuss political affairs, but if they make some small trips secretly and put eye drops in front of the queen mother, they still It can be done.
He raised his hand and gently stroked his lower lip with his fingertips, and Long Yintian ordered Gao Wuyong to pass on the message, saying that he would go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay his respects after finishing the political affairs in the afternoon, and asked the Queen Mother to send the concubines of each palace Call everyone, let's have a little fun, after all, some time ago, Empress Xiaoxian went to the funeral, and the palace was really much deserted.
Gao Wuyong didn't know what Long Yintian wanted to do, and he didn't have the guts to speculate on the holy will, so he hurried to pass the message after receiving the order, but he was always thinking about how to reply to the palaces on the way. girls.
Being so disturbed by this incident, Long Yintian also lost the mind to deal with political affairs. He hastily read the booklet in his hand and left it for Zhu Zhu, then got up and prepared to go out for a walk, and at the same time, he was thinking about How to beat those restless concubines in the harem and how to communicate with the queen mother.
Unknowingly, Long Yintian strolled to a place not far from the upper study room, remembering that he was busy with political affairs recently, and had never checked his brothers' homework, so he ordered the eunuch beside him to pass the report, while he himself He walked directly into the study room.
Hearing that the emperor is coming, these elder brothers dare not neglect, they all jumped off their chairs, knelt down to salute, and said in unison: "I send my regards to Huang Ama, Huang Ama is auspicious."
Ji Xiaolan hastily put down the book in her hand, and stepped forward to salute: "My humble minister kowtows to the emperor."
"Get up." Long Yintian never cared much about these vain rituals. He just glanced at them lightly, then went to sit down on the main seat, and said with a faint smile: "Ji Xiaolan, I got up on a whim today Suddenly, didn't you interrupt your class, did you?"
'Hey, look at what the emperor asked, how should I answer this question?If you say don’t disturb, it’s obviously impossible. You, the big Buddha, sit here, buddies, you still have the mind to read; if you say disturb, you must be unhappy when you hear it. Isn't it still me? '
Ji Xiaolan was aggrieved by Long Yintian's one-word question, but he had to answer the emperor's question, so he had to answer the wrong question: "Your Majesty Mingjian, all brothers are very smart and studious, and they are also very hardworking on weekdays. , never bother to say anything."
'As expected of a bachelor, the reaction is quite fast. "Long Yintian just asked that question on purpose, the purpose is to see if this Ji Xiaolan is a smart person, if he has some tricks and careful thinking in doing things, if it is really the kind of pedantic, only know how to study hard People, he doesn't mind changing teachers for these princes.
However, it was not so easy for Long Yintian to let Ji Xiaolan go. While smiling like a spring breeze, he directly slammed down: "In this case, then you can test the elder brothers here for me, and let me see Let's see how they are doing."
☆、Questions and answers in the study
'Come on, the emperor made it clear today that he doesn't intend to spare me.This is a question for my elder brother. If it is done well, it should be done. If it is not done well, it will offend people on both sides.Sigh... In the morning, I was gloating to see those old stubborn people slumped, but it turned out that it was my turn this time, it really is a turn of events...'
In her heart, Ji Xiaolan blamed Long Yintian a lot, but she still accepted the order respectfully on her face: "My minister obeys the order."
The first one to be asked was the fourth elder brother Yongxie, because he was the oldest among all the elder brothers present, but he was only nine years old this year.
Hearing that he was the first person to take the test, Yong Xun seemed a little nervous, not only was he clutching the hem of his clothes tightly with his hands, but even his immature face showed a look of helplessness and anxiety.
After all, Yongzhang was the oldest in the study room before, so Yongxuan was always the second when asking questions, and he had more time to prepare, so he was relatively less nervous.
Ji Xiaolan's questions are also very good. If something is difficult, Yongxuan will definitely not be able to answer it, but if it is easy, the emperor will not be able to pass it, so he asked a passage from "The Analects of Confucius": "Confucius said:' No haste, no small gains. Haste makes waste, and small gains lead to great failure.' May I ask the fourth elder brother what is your opinion on this statement?"
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "half of the "Analects of Confucius" knows the world". It can be seen that "The Analects of Confucius" is still very inspiring and instructive in terms of political affairs. Difficult and simple, no matter whether it is from the emperor or elder brother, there is nothing wrong with it, it can be said to be quite good.
After Long Yintian listened to Ji Xiaolan's question, he was more satisfied with him as a bachelor. In Qianlong's memory, Ji Xiaolan was also a talented and well-educated person. It seems that it is quite appropriate for him to personally teach these brothers to read. of.
Afterwards, Long Yintian turned his gaze to Yongxie, waiting for him to answer this question.
Seeing Long Yintian staring at him all the time, Yongxie became even more nervous, afraid that he might not answer well, so he stumbled when he spoke: "Hui... Huihuang Ama, this sentence...means... ...for politicians..."
Before Yongxie could finish the first sentence, Long Yintian interrupted him directly, his tone was quite gentle and kind, even with a little imperceptible pampering: "Yongxie, don't be nervous and speak slowly. , even if you say something wrong, I will not punish you."
Although he was speaking in front of Yongxuan, he clearly felt an unfriendly gaze staring at Yongxuan. The person is the fifth elder brother Yongqi.
Yong Xie looked at Long Yintian in surprise, it was the first time in his memory that Huang Ama talked to him so kindly, so the tension in his heart disappeared immediately, and he spoke smoothly Many: "Return to Huang Ama's words. My son thinks that this sentence means that politicians should not be quick in dealing with government affairs, and don't be greedy for immediate benefits. If you are quick, you will not be able to achieve the desired goal, and if you are greedy for small profits, you will not be able to achieve great things. Instead, you should be broad-minded. In addition, I also believe that when dealing with government affairs, we should be cautious, go deep into the reality, listen and see more, and understand the truth, so as not to make mistakes. This is the so-called "learn more and doubt more, and be careful about the rest, and few are special" ;If you see many deficiencies, but do the rest cautiously, you will have few regrets. If you speak few words, and do few regrets, you will be among them.'”
Long Yintian nodded in satisfaction. Yongxie could not only understand the meaning of the original sentence, but also think of other aspects from it. It can be seen that he learned well, so he praised him without hesitation: "Well, the answer is That’s right, I’ll reward you with a calligraphy and painting that is close to calligraphy.”
This is the first time for Yongxie to be praised by Huang Ama, and she is very happy in her heart. Immediately, her immature face smiles like a flower, her face becomes rosier instantly, and her eyes are full of confidence and enthusiasm The feeling of admiration for Long Yintian.
However, he did not forget the rules, and immediately accepted the reward: "My son thanked Huang Ama."
Seeing that Yongxie was rewarded by Huang Ama, the jealousy in Yongqi's eyes became even stronger, but he didn't realize that Long Yintian and Ji Xiaolan were watching his every move.
The next person to answer the question is the fifth elder brother Yongqi. Although he has only studied in the upper study for a year and a half, he has at least finished all of "The Analects of Confucius".
Seeing that it was her turn, Yong Qi immediately stood up straight, and raised her head, trying her best to show calm and self-confidence, trying her best to compare Yong Xun.
Although Ji Xiaolan didn't like Yong Qi's demeanor, she didn't think about embarrassing him. The topic she proposed was a relatively simple sentence in "The Analects of Confucius": "Confucius said: "Learning without thinking is useless, thinking without learning It will be perilous." May I ask what the fifth elder brother means by this sentence?"
As soon as Yongqi heard that this question was something she was very familiar with, she became more confident and replied quite confidently: "Huang Ama, this sentence means that only emphasis is placed on learning and not on thinking, so it's just It is possible to be deceived and fall into confusion; if you only pay attention to thinking but not learning, you may lead to fatigue and danger due to going astray. I believe that only by combining learning and thinking can you apply what you have learned.”
Long Yintian watched Yongqi's every move, and after listening to his answer, he just nodded slightly, and did not praise Yongxie as much, but he still rewarded him: "Well, Reward the five princes with a wishful handle."
Seeing that she had also won the reward, Yong Qi immediately received the reward happily, and when she got up, she gave Yong Xing a showy look.And Yongxie just glanced back at him lightly, then lowered his head, without any unnecessary reaction.
In the eyes of the servants who waited nearby, the fifth elder brother Yongqi received more rewards than the fourth elder brother Yongxuan. How could a painting and calligraphy be as valuable as a wishful handle?
But Ji Xiaolan is probably the only person in the upper study who really understands Long Yintian's intentions.
The emperor gave Yongxie the calligraphy and painting made by himself, which is enough to show how much he valued Yongxie; but what was given to Yongqi was just a nice-sounding Ruyi, and in essence, it was nothing more than a copper-smelling knife. It's just a thing, how can it be compared with the emperor's calligraphy? Isn't it an immediate opinion on which is more important?
The last one to answer is the sixth elder brother Yong Rong. He just entered the study room for half a year this year, and he is still in the stage of enlightenment, so Ji Xiaolan didn't ask any more questions, but asked Yong Rong to memorize a section of "San Zi Jing" That's all.
Yongrong is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. A pair of big black shiny eyes stared at Long Yintian adoringly for a long time, and then reluctantly recited a section of "Three Character Classic" according to Ji Xiaolan's words, and after the recitation After that, he said in a cheerful child's voice: "Huang Ama, I have finished memorizing, what do you want to reward me?"
Except for Long Yintian, Yong Rong's words instantly changed the faces of everyone in the study room. There were those who were worried, those who were afraid, and those who were gloating, but Long Yintian took a look at it unexpectedly. good show.
Seeing that Yong Rong was about to anger Huang Ama, Yong Xun had no other choice but to kneel down with a "dong" sound, and hurriedly pleaded for his younger brother: "Huang Ama, Yong Rong You are still young and speak freely, I beg Huang Ama not to blame Yong Rong."
After listening to Yong Xun's words, Yong Rong also realized that he seemed to have done something wrong, so he immediately went to Yong Xun and knelt down together, drooping his head and saying in a glutinous voice: "I know I'm wrong, please the emperor." Ama punished."
Yong Qi stood aside and watched coldly, without saying a word from the beginning to the end, and the surrounding servants also lowered their heads, trying to minimize their sense of existence and avoid being affected by the emperor's anger.
It was Ji Xiaolan who seemed to have something to say, but just as he took a step forward, Long Yintian gave him a sharp look and warned him coldly: "Ji Xiaolan, shut up."
Ji Xiaolan sighed helplessly in her heart, had no choice but to retreat to her position, and looked at Brother Six sympathetically, and said in her heart: "Hey... Poor Brother Six, it's not that I don't want to help you, but right now There is nothing I can do about it, I can only continue to be the background honestly...'
Yong Xun saw that even Ji Xiaolan had been dismissed by Long Yintian, and his heart became more and more anxious and uneasy. He also didn't want Yong Xun to be rejected by Huang Ama because of this matter, although in this palace big brother The friendship is not so real, but he still has a good impression of Yongrong, a lovely younger brother.
Although the fifth elder brother Yongqi and Yongxie are about the same age, Yongqi has never liked to get close to their brothers, and seems to be full of hostility towards Yongzhang and Yongxie, so Yongxie is on the contrary with the younger Yongxie. Rong is much closer, and Yongzhang has always taken good care of him, so if he does not intercede for Yongrong at this moment, it is unreasonable.
Long Yintian is actually very satisfied with Yong Xun's performance, and no matter how true or not his brotherhood with Yong Xun is, his actions at the moment are correct, even if Yong Xun is just putting on a show , It is better than being said that their brother Ni Qiang has no brotherhood.
It's just that Long Yintian didn't make a sound all the time, and the expression on his face made people unable to see the joy or anger, because Yongrong's actions were indeed inappropriate. Not only would it easily cause misunderstanding by others, he might even be detained A hat that competes for favor is more likely to implicate the pure concubine as well.
Although Yong Rong is only six years old now, others will not treat him as just a child. After all, his identity is there, and some people wish that he would lose his favor early.
Kneeling on the ground for a long time, the knees are naturally uncomfortable. Yong Xun is a little older and can bear it, but Yong Xing can't. The cold air on the ground made his knees sting, and he couldn't bear it several times. He moved his numb legs slightly.
But because Long Yintian was still watching from above, he was both respectful and fearful in his heart, and he didn't dare to move too much, his deer-like eyes gradually fogged up.
After a while, when Yong Xun was about to plead for mercy again, Long Yintian finally broke the oppressive atmosphere, and said kindly: "Yong Xun, Yong Xun, you two, get up."
When Yong Xun heard that Long Yintian's tone didn't look angry, half of the worries in his heart were gone, at least Yong Xun would not lose his Sacred Heart because of this, but the punishment might still be unavoidable.
He obediently stood up from the ground, and tightened his legs hard, which relieved the stiffness of his legs a lot.
Yong Rong was still uneasy, he didn't know how Long Yintian would punish him later, but he still got up from the ground according to his words.
Perhaps it was because of kneeling on the ground for too long, Yong Rong only felt that her legs couldn't bear the strength, and her body was shaking.
