After passing Zhengyang Gate and walking along Qianbulang, Wen Anzhi felt his heart surging.
His left hand is Tongzhengsi, Jinyiya, Qintianjian, and Taichang Temple. His right hand is Zongren Mansion, Hanlin Academy, official, household, ritual, military, and Ministry of Works.
The end of Qianbu Lounge is Chengtian Gate.
Wen Anzhi stopped and closed his eyes to feel all this.
I'm back, all of them are back!
Memories surged out like springs, reminding him that he was a minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Twenty-two years ago, he was in front of Chengtian Gate in Beijing and a group of new Jinshi energetic imaginations of his future life. Under the guidance of the ritual official, he walked across the Duanmen and reached the Meridian Gate.
The Meridian Gate is the gate of the emperor, and usually only allows the emperor to enter and exit. The civil servant enters and exits from the left side of the Meridian Gate, and the military officer enters and exits from the right side of the Meridian Gate.
But there are always exceptions in everything. The queen entered the palace from the Meridian Gate. The new Jinshi entered the palace for the first time, and the first time he saw him entering the palace from the Meridian Gate!
Wen Anzhi will never forget that day. He trembled all over and entered the Forbidden City, becoming a disciple of the emperor!
Yes, he is the disciple of Emperor Jue Jianba himself!
Beijing Forbidden City is completely built with Nanjing Forbidden City as a sample. Fengtian, Jingshen, Huagai, Wuying, Wenhua...
Each hall is exactly the same as Wen Anzhi’s memory, even the blue bricks and glazed tiles are so similar.
It was not until he reached the Qianqing Palace that Wen Anzhi shook his head with emotion.
It’s the seventeenth year of Chongzhen now!
Today, when I took up the post of the Left Minister of the Ministry of Rites to restore Wen Anzhi, it is enough to show my importance to Wen Anzhi.
Therefore, all the eunuchs who led Wen Anzhi were smiling and tried hard to please the old man.
Wen Anzhi did not say a word, standing on His Majesty Dan like a pine and cypress.
He is 62 years old this year and has long seen through the fame and fortune of the world. If it weren't for the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world, he wouldn't have entered the court again at such an old age.
"Your meeting with Wen An, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Propaganda and Rites!"
"Your meeting with Wen An, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Propaganda and Rites!"
"Your meeting with Wen An, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Propaganda and Rites!"
The eunuch's singing voice was passed down step by step, and Wen Anzhi took a deep breath and straightened his back and climbed up the steps.
Twenty-two years ago, he was in his prime, and the spring breeze brought the king Yao and Shun to the top.
Twenty-two years later, he is already sixty years old, and the old horse is in the stable and vows to win the sky.
The stubborn Wen Anzhi is back! The unyielding Wen Anzhi is back!
After climbing the last step, Wen Anzhi gasped heavily. After all, he was older and his body was not as good as before.
Wen Anzhi smiled bitterly twice, shaking his robe and clothes, and walked into the hall.
Without further ado, the inner supervisor stepped forward and led Wen Anzhi to the warm pavilion.
"My memory, Wen'anzhi, bow to Your Majesty."
Wen Anzhi gave Zhu Cilang three bows and nine bows, and tears were flowing.
"Duke Tie'an please get up quickly!"
Zhu Cilang actually walked to Wen Anzhi in a condescending manner and helped the newly recovered old minister up.
Wen Anzhi was stunned and didn't know what to say.
The emperor actually called him his name, and the emperor actually called him Tie'an Gong!
Usually, the emperor calls his ministers by his official title, and the respected old ministers should be called Mr.
It is not only unique, but also very rare for those who call their subordinates today.
So young!
This was Wen Anzhi's first reaction after witnessing Tianyan.
Moreover, today Zi and the Emperor Jue are quite similar.
That's right. After all, today I am the nephew of Emperor Qing, and it's normal for me to look like him.
In the second year of Tianqi, Emperor Jue was almost so young today, right? But today, it seems that he is more determined than Emperor Jue, and although he is in office, he is full of a domineering spirit.
Although Wen Anzhi is far away in Yiling, he also has some understanding of the personnel and affairs of Nanjing.
It was precisely because he saw that Zi was so talented and capable today that he made up his mind to assist him well.
Zhu Cixuan did not wear court clothes today, but was wearing a big red round-necked dragon robe.
He grabbed Wen Anzhi's hands excitedly and said, "I have been waiting for Duke Tie'an to wait until my hair turns white!"
This is of course a joke, but Wen Anzhi's eyes turned red and he cried, "What kind of virtue is me? Let Your Majesty take it so seriously."
Zhu Cilang smiled and said, "Duke Tie'an is my wool dragon, so I certainly value it. I have taken advantage of it. After all, I have invited Duke Tie'an out of the mountain without visiting the hut three times."
"Your Majesty praised it. Old minister, old minister..."
Wen Anzhi was a little amused and laughed. He was really not arrogant at all today.
Zhu Cilang is indeed very happy.
He didn't expect that he issued an imperial edict, and Wen Anzhi called him without hesitation.
The Southern Ming Dynasty did not lack loyal ministers, but it was absolutely lacked in capable ministers. Looking at the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, there were only one capable ministers who could carry the sky alone like Wen Anzhi.
Wen Anzhi is a well-deserved prime minister.
With Wen'an's help, Zhu Cilang's confidence increased a little.
"Donald Tie'an follows me."
Zhu Ciying led Wen Anzhi around the screen and pointed to the huge map hanging on the wall and said, "How does Tie'angong think the situation is going today?"
Wen Anzhi said with a stagnant voice: "Your Majesty is so anxious to listen to an old man who has lived in the mountains for more than ten years?"
Zhu Cilang said with a righteous expression: "In the past, Emperor Wen of Han summoned Jia Yi to discuss the truth, but did not ask the people about ghosts and gods. I cannot make such a mistake."
Wen Anzhi's Adam's apple moved up and down, and he nodded after a long time.
"Then I heard it as a fool."
"etc!"
Zhu Cilang waved his hand and said, "Today I will sit with Tie'an Gong and discuss the truth and follow the ancient etiquette!"
After saying that, you should kneel on the brocade mat.
Wen Anzhi understood what the emperor meant and hurriedly knelt down.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, kneeling and sitting were the most respectful.
Even the emperor always kneels down when he goes to court.
Today, the emperor discusses the Tao with the ancient etiquette of kneeling and Wen'an's sitting, and treats the country with true feelings.
If you treat me with your country's talents, I should repay you with your country's talents!
Wen Anzhi took a deep breath and tried to calm down, and his eyes turned to the huge map hanging on the wall.
"Your Majesty, the current situation in China is in chaos, and the world is divided into three parts. The situation is very similar to the situation of the Three Kingdoms back then."
After a moment of pause, Wen Anzhi continued: "Your Majesty thinks, who is Wei, who is Shu, and who is Wu?"
Zhu Cilang thought for a moment and replied: "In my opinion, the Eastern Captains were Wei, the Rebellion was Wu, and the Emperor Ming was Shu."
Judging from the military strength, the Eastern Lu was indeed the strongest, followed by Li Zicheng and the Ming Dynasty was the weakest. Zhu Cilang completely compared the military strength of the three countries with the Wei, Shu and Wu, rather than geographical location.
