711 Landscape at the top of the dynasty
The Forbidden Palace was quiet late at night, but there were vigilant guards patrolling the forbidden Palace at all times. +, but not to mention that Eunuch Yang has figured out the patrol time now, even if she has not figured out, given her status in the palace, no one will dare to ask wherever she goes.
It is very convenient for Eunuch Yang himself, but for the entire dynasty, this is actually a sad phenomenon.
Late at night, the two appeared in a luxurious hall. The hall has six dragon pillars and nine-level gold and jade steps. It maintains the pleasant temperature of warm winter and cool summer through its special design. It uses a special structure to allow everyone's speech to be clearly transmitted to every corner. Especially at the deepest and highest position, no matter what it says, it will appear deafening and majestic.
This is the tallest of all the buildings in the palace. A huge gilded plaque allows everyone to clearly know its name Daqing Hall from a distance.
It is also the main palace of the Southern Song Dynasty, where the court went to discuss politics.
Now, Eunuch Yang and Wu Jiaoniang have arrived here.
"Is this the dragon chaise?" Jiao Niang looked at the golden and gorgeous chair placed on the top, her eyes couldn't help but emit a faint light.
"Yes, it's it. It must feel special to eat here." Eunuch Yang walked over and turned to sit down. After she turned around, she had already recovered from her true appearance. She touched her face and patted the chair beside her: "Woo, I have been keeping the old eunuch like this every day, and my skin is almost cramped. Come on, come on, and help me rub it quickly!"
The girl walked slowly over and looked at the wide dragon throne. No matter what, this is the exclusive seat for the supreme ruler of the orthodox dynasty of the Han Dynasty. It represents the authority to control the power of life and death in the world. This dragon throne represents her dream to a certain extent. She stretched out her hand to slowly caress the patterns on the armrests. She felt the heavy and cold solemnity.
Yang Qi looked at all this and suddenly smiled, got up and walked to where she was standing when she was in court in the past few days, and shouted with a pinch of her voice: "The Emperor is here!"
The sweet girl was slightly shocked when she heard this. She suddenly turned around and looked at the place where all the civil and military officials were kneeling down on the high platform.
Then Yang Qi lowered her voice and pretended to learn: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The voice of shouting long live came from her mouth and turned back to every corner of the Daqing Palace. Her sound skills were far less magical than the magic of the Three Miaos, nor as exquisite as Teacher Yang's. But if you use it simply, it would look like a simple word, just like there were really civil and military officials kneeling and bowing, and shouting long live the mountain.
Wu Jiao Niang looked around and slowly sat down with her robe. She really looked graceful and domineering as a queen. She looked tall and majestic, and she raised her hand gently and shouted: "Everyone is calm."
So someone imitated the voice of civil and military officials: "Thank you Your Majesty!"
The girl's eyes were blurred, and she seemed to suddenly feel a lot of emotion. But in a flash, she burst into laughter and shook her head, and sighed in a low voice: "You, you really know how to play, come here and I'll rub it for you."
"Hmph, I've wanted to play like this for a long time." Yang Qi walked over and sat side by side with Jiao Niang on the dragon chaise. While doing the rotation exercise, she said with a depressed look on her face: "Oh, I've been doing things like dressing up for a long time. I've been sore in my waist and back, and my legs are cramped. The emperor quickly helped me massage and loosen my bones! Yes! That's right, the emperor is really good at craftsmanship!"
"Okay, don't stop playing house with the emperor, it's like playing house with a child." The girl patted Yang Qi with one hand, and opened the food box with the other hand. The smell of a good smell immediately floated out, causing Yang Qi to instantly move her index finger: "It smells so good! Who made it?"
The girl raised her head proudly: "I made it."
Yang Qi was immediately shocked: "You can actually cook? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you can cook!"
Pa, the girl immediately patted her on the back with dissatisfaction and gave her a little look: "Why can't I cook anymore? I cook so delicious. When I was a kid, I could make delicious food no matter what I caught. Because of this, I became the leader of a little beggar from far and near, and no one dared to mess with me."
"Yeah, it's delicious, absolutely delicious!" Yang Qi started eating immediately, and praised her. As the saying goes, she really forgot about how many meals she had not eaten. It would be fine if she didn't want to get up, but when she thinks about it, she really feels a little hungry.
"Take it slow, there are so many." Jiao Niang asked while spreading out layers of food boxes: "I see, you just frowned. Are you having any problems?"
"It can't be considered a problem, at least it's not our problem, but I can't help but feel disappointed." When talking about this, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh: "This dynasty is really terminally ill and has no cure."
Jiao Niang didn't ask any more, she listened quietly to Yang Qi's story.
"You and I went from Tianshan Mountain to the Western Regions, and then to Shuzhong. We went down the Yangtze River, then passed Xiangyang north to Songshan, Henan, and then turned to Zhongnan Mountain and returned to Xiangyang. After passing Yunnan, we went east along the Pearl River and headed along the South China Sea. Reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles. We saw too many things along the way."
"Family, country, world."
"Politics, education, martial arts."
"Officials, civilians, bandits."
"Good, evil, hero."
"Everywhere I go, I see a brand new view, and every time I go, I have a brand new sigh."
"Every place, every type, has two information, both positive and negative. Even a small united front of the people, there are factional disputes and differences in ideas. And now, I can finally stand at the top of the Zhao Song Dynasty to see its scenery. This angle may be the closest angle to the place we want to reach to see the world. But the scenery of this Daqing Palace is never refreshing."
Yang Qi raised her hand and pointed to the spot behind the third dragon pillar on the right side of His Highness: "It's there, just a few days ago, there was a 'Master Huang' there. He is neither big nor small, neither high nor low in this room, but he is also a well-known figure in the entire dynasty. A few days ago, the Censor-in-Chief reported impeachment, accusing him of embezzling disaster relief funds and accusing him of embezzling bribery and enriching his personal pockets. If you were the emperor, what would you do with him?"
Jiao Niang did not hesitate: "If you act like this in her position, you should be punished severely. Misappropriating disaster relief funds is a serious crime and should be executed."
"What if the evidence is not conclusive? Or what if the evidence provided by the Censor may be fabricated in itself?"
The girl frowned slightly: "If this is true, then it will be troublesome... I understand. Is this the scenery you saw recently when you read the memorial?"
"This is just an example. The scenery I see is even worse than this." Yang Qi took a breath, pointed to the positions of civil and military officials below, and her eyes became sharp: "No matter who is talking about these people, it is difficult to believe. It is false and real, and the sound of the world is striking, abandoning the car to protect the coach. The wisdom of the ancestors overlapped in the court, but the scenery seen on the dragon throne turned into a complete illusion."
"Is it true that the enemy is killed by the border? Are you just ordinary herders and people using it to take advantage of military merit?"
"Does the salary be issued by the border? Does the 10,000 soldiers really exist? Or are the numbers that the generals reported falsely just to earn the salary?"
"Call the police at the border, and the enemy attacked the civil officials advocated that the enemy was unable to win. When compensation was paid and peace was made, the lives of the soldiers were saved. The generals were not afraid of yelling, and they were all paper tigers, so that I could lead the troops to take them down. Who would listen to? Who is trustworthy?"
"The border is in urgent need. Is the army siege really siege, or is it a trap used by the general guarding the city secretly surrendering to the enemy? Will it be rescued? Who will send to rescue? Is it difficult to compete for credit or the difficulty of the suicide squad?"
"These are only a very small one-sided, and there are more and more problems in all aspects. And all of these," Yang Qi grabbed her hand: "The emperor doesn't know anything."
"What he can see is the scenery of the Forbidden Palace. What he can hear is the advice of his subordinates, slaves, concubines, and the wind. He cannot hear the truth or see the truth. He is surrounded by a large net woven by many lies. What must be admitted is that if he wants to tear open this big net, even if he is determined to kill me with my harsh and decisiveness."
Yang Qi pointed at the position where all the civil and military officials stood: "No one of these people is innocent, no one is innocent. No one is not proficient in conspiracy, because those who are not proficient in conspiracy cannot stand here at all."
"Although Lao Zhao is a little more frustrated now, he is much easier than being a serious emperor. His queen-guard rarely has mixed forces and no authoritative relatives who are expanding in the court. If the queen-guard disputes are included, this confusion will be impossible to mention."
"The foreign enemy is huge, internal struggle is endless, weak and exhausted, stubborn and conservative, and rejects all changes. It is also extravagant and greedy. No matter how much funding is allocated, it can disappear silently in a flash. No matter how much money is taken out in the treasury, it will eventually be implemented, but one out of ten is not saved. In this way, how can we talk about striving for strength? How can we talk about turning the tide?"
"The foreign enemy is in front of me, and the palace ladies can't help, so just calm down. I didn't expect that they wouldn't stop at all, and they didn't worry at all. Just today, there are many people giving me gifts, and there are many people who plan and make plans to better be pig feed. That face is indescribable!"
"By the way, there is also a group of romantic and talented men who claim to be talented to deliver poetry through various schools of thought. Yes, you are not aware of it. They want to be attracted by the emperor and get to the sky. The choice is to send poetry! Look at those garbage things, beautiful articles, and ambitions to serve the country, and bullshit!"
"I don't know when it started, just like a literary person who can be a good parent official, it has become a matter of course. But do these guys know how to collect evidence and make justice for the people? Do you know how to enhance production and make profit for the people? Do you know how to prevent diseases, disasters and reduce diseases, and how to rectify defense and stabilize people's hearts? They don't know anything, they only know how to sigh to the moon, how to make a brilliant splash of the country's imperial examinations every year, but they select a group of minstrels!"
"There are too many, too many, and I can't finish talking." Yang Qi kept shook her head, and she didn't know where to start.
Jiao Niang listened quietly, and after a while, she spoke: "Then what kind of scenery did you see at the top of this dynasty?"
"Originally, I had a little thought to see if I could change the world through this emperor, and see if I could cleanse the universe from top to bottom, and complete your and my dreams in advance. After all, no matter what the country is called, or whose name is the emperor, as long as I like it, I will be satisfied. But now I understand that this is impossible."
"A illusory singing and dancing brings peace, there is no possibility of change."
"A inherent system must be completely broken before it can be reborn."
Yang Qi looked at Jiao Niang with a firm expression: "I only saw one thing here, that is, the target I want to destroy. It is not just people, not just things, but also thoughts, and essence."
"A place where a leader and subordinate cannot even have basic trust, and a place where a husband and wife cannot guarantee the minimum love cannot be said to be any beauty. This palace is nothing more than a gorgeous garbage."
"From here and from the peak of this dynasty, the thing that hit me disgusted."
"So, I don't want any improvements and optimizations, and if I want to change, I will become thorough."
"I will ignite a blazing flame and burn everything that is rotten from bottom to top. Only when those cancers are burned out can the seeds of hope take root and sprout on the ruins."
Yang Qi raised her hand and patted Jiao Niang on the shoulder: "So, Jiao Niang, our dream will be a little later. So, Jiao Niang, you must wait patiently for a while."
The cute girl looked at Yang Qi's side face blankly. She suddenly leaned up gently, leaned her small head on Yang Qi's shoulder, closed her eyes and said softly and firmly: "I will always walk with you." (To be continued...)
