The emperor read the manuscript with great interest, especially Bai Erlang's writing was not like the Hanlins in the Imperial Academy. Many things were summarized in one sentence.
Seeing a brightly colored stone mountain, he could write two pages eloquently, and write three pages about how they caught scorpions in the desert. As for why they caught scorpions, the manuscript said that Zhou Man said that scorpions can heal the mouth Crooked eyes, rheumatism and frozen shoulder, Zhou Man should be used to make scorpion wine, and regular drinking seems to have the effect of strengthening the foundation and strengthening the vitality.
The manuscript also said that Zhou Man planned to make scorpion wine and give it to Yin or drink.
The emperor smashed his mouth, and said to the queen: "Tomorrow, when I see Yin Li, I will ask if Zhou Man has made scorpion wine. I think Yin is more active and energetic. Maybe it is really the effect of scorpion wine."
The queen became worried, "Your Majesty, don't eat indiscriminately, you have to ask the imperial doctor."
The emperor said indifferently, "Isn't Zhou Man an imperial physician?"
The emperor watched it with gusto, and even complained after watching it, "No wonder they traveled west for so long, although the journey was difficult, but you can see how lazy they are, and they said they lived in a small town for nearly a month in order not to waste rent. "
But in the end he still sighed and said: "I have never had the opportunity to go to the Western Regions, but reading what my son-in-law wrote, I feel that I have also been to the Western Regions."
The queen also stroked the manuscript in her hand, her eyes showed a little envy, she thought for a while and said: "When the weather gets better, let Mingda go to Qingzhou to have a look, she has been pestering me ever since Zhou Manwai was released. Son, I also want to see what the endless sea looks like.”
This time the emperor did not directly veto it as before, but looked down at the manuscript in his hand. After pondering for a while, he reluctantly hummed a few times, which was regarded as his acceptance, but he said: "Mingda is not in good health. , let the people around her take care of her."
It is too dangerous to go out. Although it is very passionate and envious to see Bai Shan and Zhou Man going west, the emperor also knows that there are many dangers when going out. When he was marching and fighting, many people around him died on the battlefield. , but weakened due to acclimatization, and in acute cases, the person disappeared in one night.
His Minda body is so weak...
The emperor read the remaining manuscripts, because Bai Erlang was at the critical point of attacking Qiucha, so the emperor couldn't hold back, and directly summoned Bai Erlang to the palace to tell him.
But writing and storytelling are actually two different things. Facing the emperor's face, Bai Erlang could only say dryly: "Bai Shan and the others killed the guards inside and took the opportunity to open the city gate. General Ashina led the army when he received the news. rushed in."
Emperor: "I know about this, I asked in detail."
"Your Majesty, this is the details."
Emperor: "...in the same detail as you write about other things."
Bai Erlang blushed and didn't say a word.
The emperor stared at him for a long while, and finally gave up the next best thing, "Have you written the following manuscript?"
"No." This time Bai Erlang responded very quickly, he said, "I can't write it without comparing it with the previous manuscript."
The emperor could only return the manuscript to him in disappointment, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and go back and write."
Bai Erlang has always been very sensitive to people's emotions, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Then I can write books when I am on duty at the Imperial Academy?"
The emperor turned a blind eye and said, "You have to finish your duties first."
Bai Erlang said excitedly: "I will not disappoint Your Majesty's expectations."
The emperor really wanted to say, I don't expect much from you, as long as you write a good book.
But seeing his silly smile, the emperor swallowed his words and waved him down.
Forget it, the son-in-law doesn't look very smart, so it's better not to hit him. In fact, it's not bad. The son-in-law doesn't need to be very capable, as long as he is good to the princess. Although Bai Er is not smart, he has a naive air. Mingda was also happy with him.
Bai Erlang brought his manuscripts back to the Imperial Academy, and left early after aiming at the time. He ran back to Zhou's house first, put all the manuscripts in a box and handed them to Zhou Liwei, and said solemnly: "This is the manuscript I gave to Bai Shanzhou. You have to put away the things that are full."
Seeing him being so solemn, Zhou Liwei also paid attention to it, thinking it was something very important, so he nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will definitely hand it over to my sister-in-law and uncle. Even if I am gone, it will Will be there."
Bai Erlang: "...it doesn't have to be like this."
But Zhou Liwei said seriously: "Yes, yes, what our Zhou family lacks most is sincerity."
Bai Erlang: "...I have to go to court tomorrow, so I won't see you off."
Zhou Liwei agreed.
Bai Erlang wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned to leave, but saw Mr. Zhuang standing at the door looking at him, he was startled, and blurted out, "Sir, are you leaving early too?"
Mr. Zhuang: "... Now it's time to go to the office, but I came back on time when I was delivering books to the Imperial Academy. How did you come back before me as a servant of the Imperial Academy?"
Shirajiro: ...
Mr. Zhuang's face sank, and he said to him, "Come with me."
Bai Erlang followed him with his head down.
Mr. Zhuang was a little angry, and sat behind the desk for a long time without speaking, while Bai Erlang obediently stood in front of the desk without moving.
Mr. Zhuang was lucky, so he said to him: "I know that you don't have great ambitions in your official career. There is nothing wrong with that. Everyone has different pursuits. Some people like to scold Fang Qiu, and some like to plead for the people. Naturally, There are also people who like to spend their days leisurely and leisurely. But no matter what your aspirations are, since you have an official position, you must do your job well. It’s nothing for you to write in the Imperial Academy. Did you do such a thing as being late and leaving early?”
The Imperial Academy in the Imperial Academy are all Jinshi, scholars, in addition to the work tasks in the Imperial Academy, everyone will also write some articles and poems in their spare time, or simply write prefaces for other people's manuscripts. Many things are done in the Imperial Academy It was completed in the Hanlin Academy, so no one thought there was nothing wrong with Bai Erlang writing books in the Imperial Academy.
It's just that the book he wrote was a biography of the vernacular type, so it seemed unrefined, and it happened to be caught by the emperor in person, which caused a big disturbance in the palace and court.
But this kind of behavior is within the default range. Are you too lazy to impeach him without watching Yushitai? This time his manuscript was confiscated, and everyone just laughed in private, and no one was impeaching him.
Because of the impeachment of him, too many people will be brought out, and no one in the Imperial Academy is innocent.
Who hasn't written poems and articles in the Imperial Academy
Mr. Zhuang can also tolerate this, but he can't allow Bai Erlang to neglect his career, to be late and leave early for nothing special, or to be late and leave early after he made a mistake and was arrested. Got thicker
