Free-spirited Illegitimate Son

Hearing Mr. Liu's summons again, Ye Chunqiu was not surprised, this year is only a few days away, Ye Chunqiu did not dare to neglect, rushed into the palace and went to the cabinet to see him.

In the past few days, Ye Chunqiu has been in the cabinet for the second time, but this time, Liu Jian's attitude is obviously much worse than last time.

Not only him, even Xie Qian looked filled with righteous indignation.

When Liu Jian saw Ye Chunqiu, his face finally eased a little, but he still frowned and said, "Recently, is there any news in the palace?"

Ye Chunqiu looked astonished, and said: "Returning to Mr. Liu, I have been training soldiers for the past few days. After the lecture, it is the first time I have entered the palace when I come to see Mr. Liu. What the situation is, I don't know much about it. .”

Liu Jian was silent for a while, but what Ye Chunqiu said made sense.

Ye Chunqiu really didn't go to the edict room these few days, he has been in the camp all the time, Liu Jian wants to inquire, isn't it clear?

Since he didn't even enter the palace, how would he know what happened in the palace?

"Ahem..." Li Dongyang, who was sitting on the side, said with a faint smile: "Chunqiu, you don't have to be afraid, Mr. Liu is just anxious, and he doesn't mean to blame you, but... before, did you see anything?" Any clues?"

Clue?Ye Chunqiu looked bewildered, and said respectfully, "Please enlighten me, Mr. Li."

Xie Qian, who was the most upright, was in a hurry, and said: "When the New Year comes, His Majesty should worship the Taimiao. You know this, right?"

I don’t know if there is a ghost. Ye Chunqiu is Hanlin anyway. This is a common sense question. Worshiping the Taimiao is the most important thing for the country every year. The most important thing for Eastern people is to respect the heaven and the ancestors. This is the Confucian weekly ritual. The core belief of Tian, ​​nature is the god of heaven, and the ancestors are the ancestors.

In other words, the gods are too far away from people after all, but ancestors are indispensable.

As an emperor, this patriarch is indispensable, so at the end of the year, leading all the officials to worship the Taimiao, this is the most important ceremony in the country, and almost all officials will participate in it, even the envoys are no exception .

Ye Chunqiu nodded and said, "Of course the lower officials know."

Xie Qian said with a gloomy and distressed look: "But it seems that His Majesty may wear his golden armor to sacrifice."

The golden armor went to sacrifice...

When Xie Qian said it, Liu Jian's old face visibly twitched. In fact, thinking of this possibility, Liu Jian's heart ached.

Golden Armor... What the hell, Liu Jian felt that he had run into a ghost. Since the Qin Emperor, there have been rules for building the Taimiao in all dynasties, and the Taimiao is the most important symbol of the country, so the country often perishes and is destroyed by people. It is called destroying its ancestral temple, why, because the ancestral temple is the country, without ancestors, where did the legal system come from?

If this is really wearing a golden armor to worship, it is almost conceivable that Zhu Houzhao will definitely become famous, because he will be the first emperor in history to do such a thing.

There are so many tyrants in history, but no matter how cruel they are, even some people are so shameless that they hook up with concubines, but they dare not play tricks on worshiping the ancestral temple.

Ancestors...have to be treated with respect after all.

When Ye Chunqiu heard this, he was obviously astonished. He could understand the feelings of Liu Jian and others. If he was a cabinet bachelor, he would have to vomit blood.

Think about it, you are the prime minister, right? In the eyes of the world, your duty is to assist the emperor, and if necessary, correct the emperor's behavior.But once the emperor plays such a game, the emperor will of course scold you, won't you cabinet ministers still be spit all over your face?Why didn't you stop it at the beginning? Why did Your Majesty become like this? Could it be that your cabinet ministers didn't make any mistakes?

Ye Chunqiu said: "Then why don't you stop it quickly, and ask Your Majesty to take it back?"

Ye Chunqiu's 'question' is correct, since you all know that the little emperor is going to mess around, so what are you talking about, for this sake, quickly bring all the officials to hit pillars, smash boulders on his chest, no matter how daring the little emperor is, It's impossible to go your own way.

Then Liu Jian murmured, but sighed heavily again.

Xie Qian felt disgusted to death as if he had eaten a fly: "Why didn't you go? I did, but His Majesty said that he had no such intention, and how could he do such a thing? He said that he had also studied and knew The most important thing in offering sacrifices to the Taimiao is that you will never do anything disrespectful to your ancestors."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help sniggering in his heart, but on the face he breathed a sigh of relief: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be good? It seems that you are worrying too much."

Xie Qian raised his thick eyebrows and said angrily, "Fart!" The majestic cabinet bachelor actually uttered such vulgar words, it can be seen that Xie Qian was really anxious, and he continued with red eyes: "Your Majesty also said that he Someone wiped his golden armor, because he wanted to go back and wear it after offering sacrifices to the ancestral temple."

Ye Chunqiu almost tensed up, wanting to laugh out loud.

But you have to bear it, if you can't help it, a few cabinet bachelors will definitely tear his bones apart.

In fact, the fundamental problem here is that the cabinet heard the news, and then ran to question it. The emperor's attitude was interesting. Of course, he categorically rejected it. Would not do such a thing.

In this way, you will not be able to ask the teacher if you want to.

As a result, the emperor's explanation was even more exciting. I just planned to wear it after the sacrifice.

Offering sacrifices to the Ancestral Temple is a lengthy ceremony. Generally, it is impossible to end before dark. Think about it, the little emperor sacrificed to his ancestors for a day, and then went back, still wearing a golden armor in the palace. wandering around?

This is a liar.

Since His Majesty is fooling, then the biggest possibility is that His Majesty is lying, and wearing it after the sacrifice is a lie, so the emperor must also be lying when he said that he would never wear it during the sacrifice.

Others may not be able to do such a thing, but in today's world, who dares to make such a guarantee?

Since he would never admit that he would pass on the golden armor to sacrifice, what if he played a big game and changed to the golden armor when he went to sacrifice?

Looking back not long ago, he appeared in the Chongwen Palace in golden armor. This is absolutely possible. At that time, all officials will be caught off guard, and it will be too late when they react.

But the problem now is that even if you want to persuade him, it seems that it is difficult to find an excuse. How do you persuade him?Just say something, Your Majesty, you mustn't do it, the little emperor will probably immediately put on a serious face, I never thought about such a thing at all, I will never do such a bad thing.

And at this time... what can you say?

So... now everyone is in a difficult situation, because they found that before the sacrifice, no one knows what excessive things this little emperor will do.
