Chapter 1677
The Chinese New Year is the fourth year of the year, and the flavor of the year is getting stronger.
At the beginning of the founding of the country, the ceremony was big but simple. When Ying Yi sacrificed to heaven and found the country, there was not even a court musician.
As for now, everything is perfected. In the New Year, Ying Yi convened a hundred officials to celebrate the New Year, and its grandeur is more so than before.
After three years of hard work, the magistrates and maids of the Palace Music Division have reproduced the poems and the beautiful chapters of Yuefu. At the New Year's Eve, the euphoria trumpets the merits of our ancestors and the virtues of our parents. In the chime ding dong, praise the way of the sages and the virtue of Saint. The Hexi Drum was shocked, and the generals were fierce. The ancient zither of flute and flute is melodious, highlighting the chapter of China.
Ode to the Book of Songs, sing Yuefu, chant poems, and recite ancient poems. There is a folk tune, which tells the fun of commoners. There is also a sunny spring and white snow, the nobleness of the scholar-bureaucrat.
The four-year Chinese New Year celebration is held in the imperial garden. The emperor summoned civil and military, and invited the old people, good merchants, and gentry of high morals, to celebrate the new year together at this time.
Zhu Youjian is also on the invitation list. At this moment, he had mixed feelings in his heart. Back in the day, I once enjoyed the flowers in this imperial garden with Queen Zhou, and saw my children playing here. However, time changes and things are easy, he is not ninety-five, not the master. But came here as a guest.
The feeling here is really not enough for outsiders.
Biqi is the master, but works all day long and can't rest for a moment. This is a guest, but peaceful and serene, no more effort.
He and Mrs. Zhou supported each other and walked slowly among the flowers and trees where there was only a trace of familiarity, and they did not share a talisman tablet with others. Listening to music ding dong, faintly sighed.
"Why do you sigh, Lord?"
Ms. Zhou became more and more beautiful. Compared to when she was in the Forbidden City, she is more radiant now. At that time, I couldn't let go of anything while holding a heart all day long. It's all right now, no need to think about it.
It is Zhu Youjian, who also looks a bit younger than a few years ago.
"It's just a little sad that's all." Zhu Youjian patted Mrs. Zhou's hand, said with a smile: "Let's go over there and take a look."
In his eyes, a The painter is painting on the high platform.
Zhu Youjian knows that he is also a member of Old Zhu's family. His name is Zhu Da, and he is very good at painting. So he was invited by the emperor to paint a memorial.
The Lunar New Year banquet lasted until the evening. Zhu Youjian took Mrs. Zhou to observe Zhu Di's paintings, and made some talisman tablets, and then went to pay respects to the emperor, and then left the Forbidden City until the end of the evening.
Returning to Fuzhong, Zhu Youjian organized a banquet to celebrate the Chinese New Year with the people in Fuzhong. At night, he watched his industry income and expenditure on New Year’s day under an oil lamp.
Although he lost his country, he is now an ordinary commoners. However, some habits of Zhu Youjian when he was emperor still survived, whether he was conscientious or overworked, he didn't become an emperor. Instead, these habits helped him to make his own business prosperous.
Seeing that it was late at night, Zhu Youjian put down the booklet and rubbed his eyes. Wang Chengen was like a statue on the side, always by his side.
"Today's income is worth more than half a month normally." Zhu Youjian said with a smile.
Wang Chengen said: "Master, today is the Spring Festival. Commoners are willing to spend money."
Zhu Youjian was silent for a while and said: "The emperor is wise, commoners are rich, so naturally they are willing to spend money. "
Wang Chengen opened his mouth, changed the subject wisely, and said: "Master, Eldest Young Master will enjoy the night view with classmates tonight, and probably won't be back before the third shift."
Zhu Youjian said with a smile: "Let him go. He is already a champion. Although he is only a man, if he can make more contacts, it is good after all."
Question: "Where's the boyfriend?"
"The lady and the lady also went out after dinner."
Zhu Youjian nodded.
Although he was a former emperor, Zhu Youzhen has basically seen it open now. eldest son Zhu Ci Wong studied in Gyeonggi Province early, and although he did not show up, he was not at the bottom. If it goes well, you may be able to get the qualifications for advanced studies after half a month.
Wait for the finished apprenticeship from Taixue, it may be allocated to local officials, which is also a good way out.
As for the former Kunxing Princess Zhu Yuchao, it is now too late. He is arrogantly looking for a husband's house for his daughter, but he has been opposed. Because the imperial education system is no longer limited to men, the right of women to receive education is also engraved in the law. Zhu Yuxuan also studied in Zhouxue for two years, and now he has a broad vision and doesn't listen to him much.
The other sons and daughters, either free school or state school, are similar.
"Take my humanitarian card." Zhu Youjian said.
Wang Chengen hurriedly took out Zhu Youjian's Humane Feihong Card from a wooden box on the side bookshelf. Zhu Youjian took it and fumbled gently on it, leaving a shadow of an illusory light barrier in front of him.
He clicked on the first article number on the top of the light barrier, and he quickly connected with Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Zhou's face appeared in the picture.
Zhu Youjian took a look: "Where at the Meridian Gate?"
Ms. Zhou's voice came: "Master hasn't rest yet? My concubine is waiting at Meridian Gate to watch the fireworks."
Zhu Youjian has already seen it. At that Meridian Gate, rows of fireworks lifted into the sky, it was really warm and beautiful.
"Come back early." He didn't say much.
Ms. Zhou replied: "I will return at midnight, the master will rest earlier."
"en." Wang Chengen said: "My companion takes a pot of wine and asks the kitchen to fry a plate of peanuts."
Wang Chengen bowed and said: "Yes, sir."
Soon, Wang Chengen Holding a tea tray, holding a pot of wine, a plate of peanuts, and also some pastries and snacks came here.
"Sit." Zhu Youjian asked him to sit down, and Wang Chengen poured wine on the two of them, drinking and talking.
"I went to the palace today and heard that the empire will implement the Origin Qi civicization policy after the beginning of the spring. I don’t know what the specific statement is." Zhu Youjian said: "Perhaps it’s like Origin Item civicization. An ordinary person like me can also profit from it."
Wang Chengen heard the self-deprecating in Zhu Youjian’s tone. When it is officially popularized..."
"Yes...the world has changed so fast that it makes people dizzy." Zhu Youjian sipped his wine with a sigh: "What Origin Item Origin Qi? , Just like in a dream."
then said: "I disdain to go into business, but if I don't do business, I have nowhere to depend. My children always ask for a future for them, so that they have no worries. "
Wang Chengen said with a smile: "What the master said is. Parents’ beloved sons have far-reaching plans. Several Young Masters and young ladies have entered school smoothly and have a future. Some of the expenses are in It's inevitable..."
The world is changing, and it's becoming incomparable fast. People of insight can't help but look at it. Knowing that the old scholar must have no way out in the future, and the new scholar is what the empire needs. If you don't conform, you will be eliminated.
Even Zhu Youzhen is always thinking about finding a way out for his children, and he does not hesitate to let go of all his face and pursue a career that he never thought of before.
