MTL - Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao-Chapter 2 I am not a faint king, the emperor praised Zhang Gui!

  Chapter 2 I am not a fool, the emperor praises Zhang Gui!

"Why are not you talking?"

  After a while, Zhang Guoji suddenly asked.

  Zhang Gui continued to remain silent.

  Zhang Guoji stood up and looked at Zhang Gui: "You child, why did you stop talking halfway through?"

   "How does Dad feel about the lyrics of this song?"

   Zhang Gui raised his head and smiled, and asked.

  Before he became a member of the imperial family, Zhang Guoji was a student of the Imperial College, so he still had a certain level of education, so he said, "This is extraordinary at the beginning, just keep talking."

  Zhang Gui said: "I have something to trouble my father."

  Zhang Guoji said: "You finish the words at the end of this song first!"

   "Dad helped me with this first, and I will talk about the following."

   Zhang Guidao.

  Zhang Guoji waved his hand: "You!"

  Zhang Gui hid aside, cupped his hands and said, "Please agree."

  Zhang Guoji had nothing to do with Zhang Gui, turned his head and shouted to the actors on stage: "Stop singing!"

  Then, Zhang Guoji asked Zhang Gui: "What's the matter?"

   Zhang Gui told Zhang Guoji what he wanted to do.

"No way! Your Majesty disliked the civil servants just because he liked these tricks and tricks, and said that this move would harm Daming. If you do this again, wouldn't the civil servants continue to talk about you? Said that you harmed me, Daming North Korea?! It’s better to be safe and stay in the mansion.”

  Zhang Guoji refused.

   "It's as if your majesty can get a good name from the civil servants if you don't do Luban's affairs; if I don't do this, they can say good things about our relatives."

   Zhang Gui replied.

  Zhang Guoji sat back: "Anyway, I don't agree!"

   "It turns out that there are so many beautiful purples and reds blooming all over the world, but they are all ruined like this. What a beautiful day, what a beautiful day, it's a pleasure."

  Zhang Gui continued to read "Zao Luo Pao".

It's just that when he read "Pleasure to the Heart" and saw Zhang Guoji turning his head again, he stopped talking again, didn't read any more, and said: "Hey! The libretto of this piece of music, if the actors in the house try it Singing along, I really don’t know what a wonderful auditory feast it is.”

   Zhang Guoji, who is obsessed with drama, felt like a cat scratching his head when he heard Zhang Gui read "A beautiful day, but a beautiful day".

In addition, he thought that what Zhang Gui said just now, no matter what the emperor and his relatives did, in the eyes of civil officials who took pleasure in criticizing the emperor's relatives and dignitaries, they would not please them. It was indeed reasonable, so he compromised , Said: "Okay, okay, I promise you!"

  Therefore, after Zhang Guoji returned to his study, he wrote the memorial book according to Zhang Gui's request, changed into his official uniform, left the mansion, and handed it over to the Secretary of General Administration.

  According to the Ming Dynasty system, when the Secretary of General Administration receives the official memorandum, it will be drafted by the cabinet first, and then reported to the emperor by the supervisor of ceremonies, and approved according to the emperor's instructions.

  Ye Xianggao, who had just replaced Fang Congzhe as the chief assistant of the cabinet not long ago, was reading the memorial presented by Zhang Guoji at this time.

  Ye Xianggao looked at the memorandum, and gradually frowned, thinking: "This Zhang Guozhang and his son Zhang Guojiu actually use these strange tricks to flatter your lord!"

As he said that, Ye Xianggao put his pen down, and his eyes showed displeasure: "I don't think there is any need for these foreign relatives to stay in the capital, lest they all only know how to please the emperor, and have no regard for the king's holiness. Relying on the status of the emperor's relatives, he brought disaster to Chao Gang."

  Therefore, Ye Xianggao decided to reprimand Zhang Guoji and Zhang Gui on Zhang Guoji's memorial, and even ordered Zhang Guoji to take Zhang Gui back to his hometown to study behind closed doors, and not to go out of the house without authorization to oppress the people.

  Ye Xianggao's proposal soon arrived at Yin Wang'an, the supervisor of ceremonies, along with Zhang Guoji's memorabilia.

  At present Wang An is the number one **** in the inner court, and Wei Zhongxian has not replaced Wang An yet.

  Wang An came to Emperor Apocalypse after he got Zhang Guoji's memorabilia and the cabinet's proposal.

   Tian Qi is sitting on a chair at this time, staring at his wood workshop in a daze. He doesn't know what objects to make recently, that is, he has no inspiration.

   Apocalypse even felt very bored by it.

  As soon as Wang An came, Tian Qi said: "You came at a good time, and you gave me some advice, what kind of wooden utensils should I make?"

  Wang An smiled and said: "The emperor can't think of it, how can this old slave think of it, if he really can't think of it, the emperor might as well think about other things?"

Tian Qi glanced at him and said: "What else can you think about. The country is poor and the people are poor, and I can't think of a good way to solve it for a while. I can only think about whether I can make something that benefits the country and the people. Even if it can't benefit the country and the people , at least it has to be useful, so I won’t have spent this ordinary day in vain.”

   Tian Qi said and looked at the servants beside him: "You all think about it, think about what I should make now! If you can say something good, I will reward you!"

  The servants agreed and began to think one by one.

  Wang An took this opportunity to say: "My lord, don't let them think about it for now. There just happens to be a serious matter here. Zhang Guozhang has a book to report, and the cabinet has already drafted it. Come to invite the emperor's decree."

   Tianqi therefore asked: "What did Mount Tai tell me?"

  Wang Andao: "It's just those absurd things related to the uncle of the country. Yuan Fupiao thinks that the father of the country should take him back to his hometown to study behind closed doors."

  Tian Qi has always cared about the feelings of his relatives, and now he heard what Wang An said, so he said: "Let them go home, what should the queen do if she misses her mother's family? Besides, haven't I already banned Zhang Gui enough?"

   "Although it is said that the foot is banned, it is difficult to guarantee that after the end of the foot restraint, it will not cause trouble for the emperor in the capital, which will damage the reputation of the emperor."

  Wang An said with a smile.

Tian Qi said: "Bring me the memorial book, and I will see how ridiculous it is. If it is true as you said, Zhang Gui is very naughty, and my Taishan is also confused, then I will give it to you." The queen said, let the queen persuade them to return home."

Wang An was a little hesitant. He knew that the emperor really loved carpentry, and he was not as respectful of Confucianism and logic as the previous emperor. If he handed over this melody, he would definitely hit Zhang Gui's arms, so he said with a smile: "The emperor Master, it's better not to look at it, the old slave is afraid of hurting his peace."

  The harmony Wang An refers to refers to the harmony between Tian Qi and the courtiers.

   "There's no reason not to show me the melody! I know how to measure whether it hurts peace or not!"

   Tian Qi frowned and said, "Bring it!"

  Wang An just handed it over.

But he didn't want to let Zhang Gui win the Emperor's heart by presenting strange and ingenious skills, so he slandered: "The emperor's sageness is unmatched. I must read this playbook and know it. The uncle of the country asked the father-in-law to publish this book, obviously because he wanted to please the emperor."

"First of all, this intention is not righteous! Secondly, if you don't warn him in his memorial, it will naturally be difficult to prove His Majesty's innocence, and the civil servants in the foreign court will feel that the emperor is not governing the country properly, and he has not warned the emperor's flattery in time. That's why Yuanfu drafted it like this."

   Tian Qi smiled coldly, and before opening the notebook, he asked, "What do you mean, do my relatives have to fight against me to be good relatives?"

  Wang An hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground after hearing this: "This old slave doesn't mean that! This old slave is just analyzing the reason for Yuanfu's proposal for the emperor."

   "I'm not a fool!"

  Tianqi asked, "Do you still need to remind me?"

  Wang An replied: "Yes! It's the old slave who made a slip of the tongue."

"Get up. I know what's on your mind. You are deeply afraid that I will lose my ambition, and you are also afraid that snobs will take the opportunity to flatter me. But I am not a person who can't tell the good from the bad. Even because I am the emperor, there are many people in the world. If I like it, then I can tell whether the intentions here are good or bad!"

   "If Zhang Gui really encourages me to play some ridiculous things on Mount Tai, I will educate him well."

   Tian Qi opened the playbook and read it carefully.

   After seeing it, Tianqi looked in.

   "Good! Great! How did he think that?!"
