Chapter 409: Who is going to be unlucky
Chapter 409 Who is going to be unlucky
"Confucius, Confucius, have you ever heard of it?"
"..." Cai Jin squinted his eyes, revealing a very suspicious expression.
This doubt does not mean that she would not know who Confucius was.
But—
How did Mr. Xu come up with such an indescribable joke?
"Okay, I won't tell you more." Xu Yun was afraid that the other party would go into the kitchen again, got up during this gap, brushed his sleeves, turned and left: "I have to go back to take a nap."
Watching Xu Yun exit the pavilion, Cai Jin sighed slightly.
She is really curious.
……
Xu Mingyi claimed that there is something to go out, but that is not all an excuse, but he did make an appointment with Wu Chao to meet at the Xuesheng Teahouse in the afternoon.
When she arrives, Wu Chao is already sitting in the place where they usually sit, waiting for her.
"I didn’t eat lunch before, and thought it was too early, so I went to the Second Uncle’s Garden to drink tea. Unexpectedly, the tea was not only not refreshing, but made me fall asleep." Xu Mingyi sat down opposite him and said: "This is just I came a little bit late, but have you been asked to wait for a long time?"
"I just arrived." Wu Chao said that the temperature was mild, and he lifted the teapot to fill the tea cup with seven points, put the teapot down, and pushed the tea cup in front of her. With a simple movement, his hands are as pleasing to the eye. .
"Try this refreshing or not," he said.
Xu Mingyi took a sip of the tea cup, and nodded unexpectedly: "Well, it's really refreshing, it makes people feel refreshed, and the seven orifices are clear."
Wu Chao heard a smile in his eyes.
"I came to you today, I have something to tell you." Xu Mingyi quickly got into the topic.
Wu Chao looked at her: "What's the matter?"
"The day before yesterday, the empress dowager’s empress banquet, I took Akui to the Yuxiu Palace of Concubine Jing, do you remember this?"
Wu Chao nodded.
"I met the Master Xuanqing in Yuxiu Palace." Xu Mingyi lowered his voice slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "I used your name to let him do something for me—— "
In the Pingqing Pavilion the night before, she planned to explain to Wu Chao, but did not find a suitable opportunity.
National Division?
Wu Zhao was slightly startled when he heard the words-he almost forgot that there was such a person.
remembered now, and just nodded.
"...Don't you ask me what I asked him to do?" Xu Mingyi looked at the calm youth and couldn't help asking.
Wu Chao asked: "Is it tricky? What can I do?"
He thought that it was only now that he wanted to tell him, most of it should be a small matter, so he didn't rush to ask more.
"..." Xu Mingyi couldn't help feeling that this person's head seemed very different from ordinary people.
Her original intent was: "It’s not that tricky--but are you afraid that I will cause trouble under your name?"
Although she has always acted in her own way, it is still reasonable.
Getting into trouble under his name?
The young man’s eyes overflowed with a real smile: "I can't ask for it."
He has never had a chance to deal with her aftermath. At this point, he has secretly envied Zhen Guo Duke more than once.
Meeting these smiling eyes, Xu Mingyi was uncomfortable for a while, but did not hide the smile on his face. Thinking of his dream in the garden, he looked very candidly and said: "Then I really want to thank you for this. My heart."
Wu Chao stared at her, vaguely felt that what she was referring to seemed to be more than just this.
Did something else happen?
The girl didn't give him a chance to think much, and then said: "This matter is not big or not, but it is not small. It is related to Zhan Yunzhu..."
Xu Mingyi recounted the conversation with the national teacher that night roughly.
Wu Chao nodded and said: "This method is feasible, even if the emperor may not fully believe in it, or will not immediately disgust this person because of this, he will inevitably have a grudge in his heart——"
And once the grudge is born, it will be easier to deal with after losing the greatest support of the emperor's heart.
"Well, that's what I think." Xu Mingyi put down the tea cup in his hand and said, "There is another thing. Go to the imperial tomb to worship the first emperor——"
"Memorial to the ancestors?" Wu Zhao thought for a while, then asked, "Where did you get the news?"
He didn't seem to hear any wind.
"This is what Mrs. Wen, the wife of the Book of Rites, said personally, it must not be wrong." Seeing his confusion, Xu Mingyi said: "Sometimes, the information on the card table in the back house is not worse than secret spying. "
Hearing these words, Wu Chao couldn't help feeling that he had touched a blind spot in cognition.
But I couldn't help but feel a little awe about the future mother-in-law's sling.
He thought about it and said: "If the Minister of Li Minority really proposes this matter, the civil servants will certainly agree, and the emperor will only nod his head by then—"
None of the three princes had returned to Beijing to worship their ancestors for many years. The Ministry of Rites proposed this. Starting from the system of filial piety and etiquette, it was reasonable and reasonable. The emperor had no reason to refuse.
But the ancestor worship regulations are complicated. The imperial tomb is at the foot of Lingshan Mountain three hundred miles away from the capital. As a result, several princes said that they would stay in the capital for another half a month.
A few days ago, several princes had already gone to the Taimiao Temple to worship, it was not necessary to go to the imperial tomb again.
But if the Book of Rites is mentioned, it is not going to work.
So, the Lord Shangshu talked about the Shouli system, which is really the Shouli system, but he is really not afraid that the emperor can't sleep.
"You will also go there then?" Xu Mingyi asked.
Wu Yun thought for a while, and said, "Or I want to go."
Although is a prince to worship the ancestors, the emperor must also go personally. According to the regulations, there will be relatives and ministers accompanying the emperor.
Although he is not a member of the Xie family's clan, he is the grandson of the Wu family and the nephew of the queen. Since he is in Beijing, he usually needs to travel with him.
However, it is not an important person in the end. It is just a carry, even if it is an excuse to refuse to leave, no one will care.
All in all, it's a go or not.
"If you have a chance, you should follow along." Xu Mingyi said.
Wu Yun looked at her with some doubts, thinking that there must be a reason for her words, so he waited for her to continue.
In 's eyes, she saw the girl sternly and whispered: "I always have a dream recently..."
"......?"
Wu Chao felt a cold back inexplicably.
I don’t know who is in bad luck this time?
……
The next day, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites mentioned in the early dynasty that several princes who have not returned to Beijing for a long time should go to the imperial tomb to worship their ancestors.
Several civil servants stood up and agreed.
Zuodu Yushi Mingxiaozhi, also known as seconding.
Ji Xiu heard his scalp numb.
These old guys who adhere to the etiquette system are really terrible-what good is it to be the king of Yan staying in Beijing for a long time?
Looking at the emperor who nodded gently in the face of this proposal, Ji Xiu silently sympathized.
