Chapter 757 Examination

A series of footsteps outside attracted the attention of everyone in the outer hall of the Longevity Palace, and soon Eunuch Zhang took Zhu Ping'an's sleeve and trotted to appear in the outer hall.

Zhu Ping'an entered the Longevity Palace, and only had time to bow his hands to the adults in the outer hall. He didn't even have time to say hello, so he was pulled by his sleeves and walked into the inner hall.

Everyone in the outer hall saw that Zhu Ping'an was called in, with a lot of eyes.

Yan Maoqing looked at Zhu Ping'an's figure walking into the inner hall, and pulled the corner of his mouth downwards, hehe, you can't live with your own sins, the Holy One believes, you praise Buddha, today you are finished,

After entering the inner hall, Zhu Pingan saw Emperor Jiajing sitting on the futon with his eyes closed and meditating, and Huang Jin standing aside.

Seeing Zhu Pingan coming in, Huang Jin gave Zhu Pingan a kind smile.

"Report to the Holy Majesty, Zhu Ping'an has arrived." After entering the inner hall, the little **** Zhang whispered to Emperor Jiajing who was meditating.

As soon as the little **** finished speaking, Zhu Pingan knelt down in a proper manner and performed three kneelings and nine kowtows to see Jiajing.

"Chairman Si Zhilang, Minister of the Imperial Academy, and Taicang Inspector Zhu Ping'an, kowtow to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Zhu Ping'an knelt down and fell on the ground with his head down. After a pause of about two seconds, he heard Emperor Jiajing's voice above his head.

"Zhu Aiqing, get back on your feet." Emperor Jiajing stood up, supported by Huang Jin and sat on the dragon chair, and said leisurely.

"Master, thank you Lord Long En." Zhu Pingan saluted and thanked him, then got up, showing great respect and respect.

"Ai Qing, are you convicted?"

Zhu Ping'an just got up, and Emperor Jiajing looked at Zhu Ping'an with slightly narrowed eyes, and asked lightly.

Hearing that Zhu Ping'an knelt on the ground again with a thud, his back suddenly felt cold, and goose bumps arose, but he soon calmed down again, shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know."

As the saying goes, if you don’t do anything wrong with your conscience, you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door, and you haven’t done anything that violates discipline or law, so you have a clear conscience.

"I don't know?" Emperor Jiajing asked back with a smile that was not a smile, and then asked in a deep voice, "I ordered you to inspect the Taicang Bank, why did you come here to contribute articles to me? Do you think I don't care about priorities? Are you a fool?"

Oh, it turned out that it was because of this. Zhu Ping'an was completely relieved, raised his head and explained with an aggrieved face: "I dare not, the sage is wise and mighty, diligent in governing and loving the people, he is an emperor through the ages, how can he be a foolish emperor? It's not like I left my post without permission. I've been checking the account books in Taicang from Mao in the morning to You in the afternoon. When you came to Xiyuan, I had something to ask for an audience with the Holy Majesty, and I didn't know about the article until I handed in the request letter."

"Come to Xiyuan in Youshi... Doesn't that mean that Aiqing just arrived?" Emperor Jiajing narrowed his eyes and glanced at the engraved scale on the copper pot in the palace, raised his eyebrows slightly, doubtful about Zhu Ping'an's answer.

"Your Majesty is wise, I did arrive just now." Zhu Pingan nodded solemnly.

"What kind of wisdom is this?" Seeing this, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help scolding Zhu Pingan with a smile.

Although Zhu Ping's flattery is blunt, bluntness has its advantages. If you shoot bluntly, you are embarrassed, but the other party looks funny. This is another form of active atmosphere.

"Hehe, Zhuangyuan Lang has just arrived, and he wrote such an article "Kneeling Before the Buddha for Three Thousand Years"? I just heard from Xiao Lizi from Wuyi Palace that you only used less than a cup of tea. Cao Zhi from the Three Kingdoms Poetry in seven steps is nothing more than that, it's like listening to legends of ghosts, it really makes miscellaneous people unbelievable." Huang Jin observed his words and said with a smile, some things are not convenient for Emperor Jiajing to say, but they are different.

"The lower official also wrote it because of his feelings. It happened to be a meeting, so he wrote it faster. He absolutely dare not compare with Cao Zhizhi's talent." Zhu Pingan shook his head and explained very modestly. Admiral Huang Jin supervised Dongchang and was also in charge of the Rites. His official position was much higher than that of Zhu Pingan. There was nothing wrong with Zhu Pingan calling himself a low-ranking official here.

"Cao Zhi also expressed his feelings, so there is no need for the champion to be humble," Huang Jin said with a smile.

Uh, Zhu Pingan shook his head with a wry smile.

"Warming tea composition? Hehe, interesting, then pour Zhu Aiqing a cup of tea and let me see how Aiqing warms tea composition." Emperor Jiajing looked at Zhu Pingan leisurely and said, "Master Tao went to Taihe Mountain to build Yuanyue Mountain , There is still a couplet missing in Huizuo Mountain Gate, if Aiqing prepares warm tea, I will forgive you for not guilty, if not, Aiqing also knows the consequences of the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Soon a little **** poured Zhu Pingan a cup of tea and put it on the ground in front of Zhu Pingan.

"I thank the Lord for your kindness, and I will do my best." Zhu Pingan kowtowed, but he was speechless for a while. The composition of warm tea is what you said, and I didn't set this flag.

However, Zhu Pingan is not worried at all about writing couplets. After studying for so long in ancient times, it is not difficult for him to write couplets. I have visited some Taoist temples that do not charge money, and I have memorized a lot of couplets from Taoist temples, which is enough to cope with the past calamity.

It is better to use ready-made ones. The couplets in modern Taoist temples must be carefully selected, and only those that are particularly outstanding are selected.

During such a tea time, the couplets written by myself are definitely not as good as the carefully selected couplets in Taoist temples.

But which one should I use?

Zhu Ping'an closed his eyes and began to think. Taoist temples appeared in his mind, and couplets appeared like a fleeting glance.

Emperor Jiajing didn't urge him either. He smiled at the corner of his mouth and looked at Zhu Ping'an with great interest.

Huang Jin seems to have a lot of confidence in Zhu Ping'an, looking at Zhu Ping'an with full confidence.

Um

Yes, after thinking for more than ten seconds, Zhu Pingan thought of the couplets he saw in a Sanqing Palace Taoist temple in Hebei.

After thinking about it, Zhu Ping'an didn't act in a hurry, but continued to close his eyes and meditate, pretending to be contemplating hard.

Proper hiding is necessary, especially now. If I wrote it so fast, where would the ministers in the outer hall turn their faces? In addition, Emperor Jiajing was conceited and sensitive, so it was inappropriate for him to perform better than the Holy One. ,

In this way, in Zhu Pingan's meditation, time passed minute by minute.

"Hehe, Zhuangyuanlang, the tea will be cold if you don't write anymore." After a while, Huang Jin urged with a slight smile.

"Wait a minute or two. Oh, there it is." Zhu Pingan made an anxious look, and after about three to five seconds, he pretended to be inspired again, picked up the brush on the side, dipped it in ink, and wrote on the rice paper up:

Tai Chi Judgments regard Cheng Qiankun as the father and Kun as the mother, with great supernatural powers, one breath and three cleansing, saving all the people of the four continents;

The two ceremonies are divided into yin and yang, yang belongs to the sky, and yin belongs to the earth, showing boundless magic power.

Zhu Pingan wrote a sentence, and Huang Jin repeated a sentence.

"Although the time is a little bit over, herbal tea is still tea, so-so, so let's count you as passing this time." After listening to Emperor Jiajing, he commented on it, but he was very satisfied in his heart.

The words "Save all the people in the four continents" and "Cultivate the Golden Immortal of Ten Thousand Tribulations" behind these two couplets simply touched Emperor Jiajing's heart, which made Emperor Jiajing very satisfied. The purpose of building Yuanyue himself was to save the people in all four continents. As for the cultivation of the Golden Immortal of Myriad Tribulations, it was Emperor Jiajing's pursuit.
