Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Deep palace, dancing candlelight, here is the Chongde Hall where Emperor Taichang's mausoleum is parked.  The black night made the palace a little less solemn and a little more ferocious, like the gaping mouth of a beast that chooses people to eat.  With the sound of footsteps, a figure slowly walked into the main hall and came to the center of the main hall.  Placed here is a huge coffin. In front of the coffin is a huge brazier. A young man sits on the edge of the brazier and puts the paper money in his hand into the brazier one by one.  As the paper money was put in, the flames in the brazier kept beating, reflecting on the expressionless face of the young man.  "Your Highness, the memorial has been sent over there during the day." The visitor bowed to the young man and said in a low voice.  Wang An once thought he knew the young man in front of him very well, but now he did not dare to say so. He could not guess what this man was thinking.  Putting the last piece of paper money in his hand into the brazier, the young man stood up slowly, but did not answer Wang An's words, but ordered: "Hold the lamp." When the lights in the hall were lit again, the entire hall suddenly  The lights were brightly lit, and the hall seemed to have returned from the underworld to the earth, which made the eunuchs and maids standing here breathe a sigh of relief.  Slowly coming to the back of the desk, Crown Prince Zhu Youxiao sat down gently and picked up a memorial on the table in front of him.  This is the rubbing of Zuo Guangdou's memorial. He nodded to Wang An and handed the memorial to him.  "Read it." When he took the memorial, the prince said softly.  "The Crown Prince Zhu Youxiao can still understand classical Chinese, but he doesn't understand traditional Chinese classical Chinese very well.  During this time, Zhu Youxiao was used to having memorials read to him. Wang An didn't find it strange, so he took the memorial and started reading it.  With Wang An's voice, Zhu Youxiao gradually fell into deep thought. This memorial was really written by a gangster. This top general of the Donglin Party is really not worthy of his reputation.  This strength, this writing style, and this rhetoric are truly outstanding!  This memorial is very straightforward. It can be said that there is no evasion at all. From the first sentence, it is secretly laying out mysteries and planning every step.  The first sentence of this memorial first states that the Qianqing Palace in the inner court is like the Huangji Palace in the outer court. This sentence may seem like nothing, but it actually lays the groundwork for the second sentence.  There is only one thing Zuo Guangdou wants to explain here, and that is that the status of the Qianqing Palace is the same as the Huangji Palace where the imperial court conducts business. It is the place where the country handles government affairs.  With such a beginning, the next step is to follow. The second sentence is: "Only the emperor can live here to control heaven, and only the queen can live together with heaven. Other concubines enter the emperor in the same way and cannot stay permanently. Not only do they avoid suspicion,  It¡¯s also a matter of respect and inferiority.¡± Here Zuo Guangdou wanted to say, since the status of Qianqing Palace is so important, who can live there?  The first one is naturally the Son of Heaven. The emperor controls the world and can naturally live in Qianqing Palace.  So who else can live there?  The second person is the queen, because the queen is the emperor's wife and wife, so she is qualified to live here.  The next sentence is Zuo Guangdou's most important foreshadowing, and it is also what he wants to express, that is, other concubines are not qualified to live there, not only to avoid suspicion, but also because of the difference in dignity.  With these foreshadowings, the following words will finally get to the point, because Zuo Guangdou wrote this: "The selected servant is neither the aunt nor the biological mother, and she is as if she lives in the main palace, while His Highness retreats to Ciqing and has no choice.  After a few banquets and great ceremonies, what is the meaning of status? The emperor has no virtue in taking off his hairpin and has no kindness to raise him. How can he be entrusted with the holy bow? " This passage is from the left.  Guang Dou was not polite at all. He directly asked Li Xuanshi, "You are neither the prince's biological mother nor the queen, so what qualifications do you have to live in Qianqing Palace?"  You live here with a bad name and bad words, but you still insist on staying here and refuse to leave. Then how can a woman like you, who does not understand dignity, raise the prince and general for you?  This is simply a slap in the face, very rude.  The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty often did not pay too much attention to the memorials. Even the memorials written to the emperor were usually very rude.  Many people became famous by scolding the emperor, saying that he was a coward and incompetent. Such words often appeared in memorials.  It is impossible for such a paragraph to stimulate Li Xuanshi. This woman who has experienced countless ups and downs cannot be defeated so easily. What is really fatal is the last paragraph of the memorial.  The last paragraph of the memorial reads like this: "Your Highness is already sixteen years old. He is supported internally by a loyal and mature man, and externally by two ministers, Gong Guqing. Why worry about the lack of people and the need to nurse him? Kuang Ruizhe  At the beginning, it is not suitable to see the desire, so why leave it to the woman's hands? If I don't decide now, I will use the name of raising to commit suicide again, and there will be people who can't bear to say it in the future.  ." What is this passage???mean?  It probably means: "The prince is already sixteen years old and is already an adult. There are fair and strict ministers outside and safe and stable eunuchs inside." I have to add a sentence here. In the Ming Dynasty, civil servants were alone.  Systemically, they looked down upon the generals, and even more looked down upon Jin Yiwei and Dongchang.  Because of the emperor's restrictions on military generals, these military attach¨¦s were no longer opponents of civil servants, and Ming Chengzu set up a new opponent for civil servants, that is, the Dongchang Jinyiwei. This may be another way of check and balance.  Why did Zuo Guangdou say this here?  This may be to unite all possible forces, temporarily unite, and defeat Li Xuanshi before talking about other things.  "Then since the prince is already sixteen years old and has so many capable people to assist him, what else do you need to do? Does the prince still need to be like a child and need you to coax him?" In fact, these are just appetizers.  , the real highlight is actually the last sentence.  There is only one thing Zuo Guangdou wants to say here, and that is that the prince has reached the age of first love. How can he be entrusted to a woman to raise him at this time?  Judging from the written meaning, Zuo Guangdou was afraid that Li Xuanshi would take over Wu Zetian's power. In fact, there was a deeper meaning.  Since the prince is already in love, there will always be a woman he likes. What are you doing here?  Do you want to be Wu Zetian?  As we all know, Wu Zetian is Li Shimin's concubine, and Li Zhi is Li Shimin's son. Wu Zetian married Li Shimin first, and then married Li Zhi.  Here Zuo Guangdou is saying, do you want to live here to seduce the prince?  Seducing such a nominal son?  You must know that the Ming Dynasty was not as good as the Han and Tang Dynasties. The culture of the Han and Tang Dynasties was still very open, and it was not impossible for widows to remarry.  Princesses committing adultery also happened from time to time.  But in the Ming Dynasty, you are just waiting to be immersed in a pig cage!  It¡¯s finally back to normal. Well, I hope everyone will support me and vote for recommendation!
