Poetic and picturesque: Mrs. Hua Rui's Picking Mulberry Seeds
Born of hate, spring is like a year,
Smell cuckoo from time to time immediately.
3,000 ladies-in-waiting are all beautiful,
* * * Dou Chanjuan, Ji Xuetian,
Who knows today is a prophecy.
Meng Zhixiang used to be our Sichuan envoy in the late Tang Dynasty. Later, he arrogantly called himself the emperor, and this matter spread to Meng Changjun. After ten years, there was no bonfire, and all the ladies went down, and they didn't tell the difference between husked wheat and flowers. The gentry gave gifts with orchids, and they bought and laughed. In the palace, there is a daily strike, drinking and singing and dancing.
Meng Chang is a person who knows how to enjoy. It is said that after the destruction of Shu, the guards were instructed to pack their things and saw that Meng Changjun's drowning device was made of Qibao, with exquisite workmanship. Very surprised, dare not hide, hurry back to perform. Mao sighed unconsciously: this drowning device should be made of Qibao, but what should it be used to store food? Luxury has reached this point, and it will not die! The lifeguard will break it into pieces.
Meng Yunguang recruited beautiful women from Sichuan to fill the harem, tossing and turning among women all day. Every time after the banquet and the Song Dynasty, he had a little leisure, so he called the harem beauties to the imperial palace, personally selected them, picked out the graceful and delicate ones, sealed them, and took turns to enter the palace. Its rank is higher than that of officials and scholars, and the monthly powder is paid by the internal reference, which is called the first month. When it was time to give them money, Meng Changjun personally watched, and there were thousands of imperial secretaries.
Among them, the most beloved is "Mrs. Hua Rui" Xu Guifei.
Meng Yunri hosted a banquet and felt that all the dishes were very old-fashioned. When they are served, they feel disgusted and cannot be served. Mrs. Hua Rui is unique. She used the head of the white sheep, boiled it with red ginger, rolled it tightly, pressed it with stones, and drowned it with wine, so that the taste of the wine was bone-deep. Then she cut it as thin as paper and brought it into the palace. It was delicious. She is known as "flying sheep's head" and "rotten wine bone" Meng Changjun will eat vegetarian food when he meets the moon, and he likes potato medicine. The stamen slices the potato medicine, mixes in the lotus root starch evenly, and adds five flavors. The fragrance is fragrant, the taste is crisp and white as silver. Shaped like the moon, the palace called it "a plate of moon".
Mrs. Huarui loves peonies and red gardenias best, so Meng Changjun ordered officials and people to plant a large number of peonies, and said: Luoyang peony is the best in the world, and Chengdu peony will be the best in Luoyang in the future. I don't hesitate to send people to buy fine varieties everywhere and open up a "peony garden" in the palace. In addition to staying under Mrs. Hua Rui's flowers day and night, Meng Changjun also called ministers to hold a feast to reward peonies. The red gardenia is said to have been sent by Taoist Shen, with only two seeds. It has red spots, six petals and a fragrant smell. Because it is rare, some people imitate the style of flowers and paint them on the round fan, but this is a habit, that is, "hibiscus" flowers. Whenever hibiscus flowers are in full bloom, it is like a brilliant picture that spreads 40 miles along the city. So Chengdu is also called "Rongcheng".
However, just as Meng Changjun, the King of Shu, and Mrs. Hua Rui were riding bullets and giving a banquet in search of poems, the Central Plains region was already a different world. Zhao Kuangyin's "yellow robe plus body" replaced the later Zhou Dynasty as the emperor of the world, with the title of Song, and the goal gradually pointed to the later Shu.
In November of the second year of Gander, Song Taizu ordered loyal ministers to lead 60,000 troops to attack Shu, and ordered craftsmen to build houses for Meng Qi, the owner of Shu, in the capital of song dynasty. Everyone in Song Jun fought bravely, but the Shu army was defeated without a fight. Helpless, Meng Chang tied himself out of the city and asked him to surrender. Just 66 days after the invasion, Shu was destroyed.
When the green willow changed to Huang Shi, Meng Changjun and Mrs. Huarui and their party were taken to the capital of song dynasty. Du Yusheng said, "Brother, you can't!" "I can't do it, brother!" It's heartbreaking After arriving in the capital of song dynasty, Meng Changjun was made king of Qin, and he was appointed as proofreader and secretary. Song Taizu and Zhao Kuangyin rewarded Meng Changjun and his entourage and family. That day Shane, Meng Changjun's mother, Li Furen, was followed by Mrs. Hua Rui. Seven days later, Meng Chang died suddenly at the age of 47, which historians believe was poisoned.
When Mao heard that Meng Changjun had died, he dropped out of school for five days, released plainclothes clothes, gave thousands of pieces of cloth and silk, and made him king of Chu. After Meng Chang's death, his mother didn't cry, but raised her wine and said, "You can't die for your country. I am too greedy, because you and I have to live on the earth. I can't bear to die. What's the point of living now that you're dead? " So he fasted for a few days and died. Meng Changjun was buried in Luoyang, but his family still stayed in Bianjing and went to the palace to give thanks. Mao saw that Mrs. Hua Rui was in white mourning and became more and more white. Jade bone Shanshan took this opportunity to leave her in the palace, forcing her to wait for the banquet. At this time, Mrs. Hua Rui could not control herself. During the drinking, Mao knew that Mrs. Hua Rui could write poems. When she was in Shu, she wrote hundreds of palace poems and asked her to improvise them. Mrs. Hua Rui sang: "When I first left Shu, my heart would be broken and I hated it. Spring is like a year, and you will always smell Du Fu immediately. Three thousand ladies-in-waiting are all beautiful. They fight Juan and learn from heaven. Who knows today is a prophecy. "
I recited it and said that it was a sentence written on the wall of the post station when I left Shu on the same day and passed through Jiameng Pass. He also said: "In Chengdu Palace, Meng Chang, the owner of Shu, personally composed' Wan Li Songs to Heaven' and asked me to sing it to the beat, thinking it was Wan Li's good wish to come to the DPRK. So hundreds of officials fought for the whip, from the horse to the ground, the woman wore a high crown, and everyone called it' heaven'. Li Yanniang wore a high bun when she entered the palace, and the imperial secretary imitated her invitation. It is also called "Chaotian Bao". Knowing that Wanli was rugged, I went to Bianjing to see you, Song Zhu, and the prophecy of Wanli came true. Isn't it a pity? " Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin listened for a long time without saying a word, drank three cups and said that you should write a new song. Mrs. Hua Rui pondered for a moment, then said, "The flag was lowered on the city, but where did I know?" One hundred and forty thousand people were disarmed, and none of them were men. "
Soon Taizu named Mrs. Hua Rui as the imperial concubine. From then on, I went to Mrs. Hua Rui's every day to drink and listen to music.
Mrs. Huarui never forgot Meng Changjun's former kindness in her heart, so she drew his portrait with her own hands and worshipped privately behind her back, only to be caught by Mao one day, and she seemed to see something between her eyes. She was anxious and couldn't remember, so she had to ask Mrs. Hua Rui. His wife coaxed him that this is a popular portrait of Zhang Xian, and he would get the child if he offered it devoutly. Mao actually believed it. When the concubines in the poor palace heard about this, they all went to the lady's palace to draw a picture as usual and presented it to each other. Soon, this portrait of a fairy giving a child came out from the palace, and even the folk women who wanted to have children drew a fairy and fragrant flowers as gifts, which has never failed so far.
In the mid-Northern Song Dynasty, Shao Bo's Wen Jian Jin Lu said that one day Zhao Kuangyin led the prince and the harem banquet to shoot in the backyard, and Zhao Kuangyin raised a glass of wine to persuade Zhao Guangyi. Zhao Guangyi replied, "If Mrs. Huarui can fold flowers for me, I will drink them." When Zhao Kuangyin ordered Mrs. Huarui to fold flowers, Zhao Guangyi shot her with a bow, and then held Zhao Kuangyin's leg in tears and said, "Your majesty wins the world. You should respect yourself for your country and stay away from wine!" Although Zhao Kuangyin was unhappy, he didn't blame him, so he "drank and shot as before".
Meng Changjun, the owner of Shu, was most afraid of heat. Every time he meets a hot summer, he feels breathless and it is difficult to rest. So he built a crystal palace on the Maha pool as a summer resort. The main hall has three rooms with nanmu as the pillar, agarwood as the building, coral windows and jasper as the household, and dozens of open glasses are embedded in the surrounding walls, so that there is no need to build, so that the inside and outside are bright and seamless, and then the moon beads in the harem are moved, and the night is also bright and transparent. Surrounded by greenery, the red bridge is faint. From then on, in the Crystal Palace on a midsummer night, there was a cicada tent, a sapphire pillow, a basket of ice cubes and a quilt. Meng Chang and Mrs. Hua Rui are here every night. Meng Chang tried to write a poem called "A Jade House is Spring".
Jade bone, ice muscle, no sweat, water temple full of fragrance.
The bright moon between the curtains peeps at people alone, and the pillows are messy.
The courtyard is silent in the middle of the night. You can see the river by looking at the stars.
When will the west wind come? I'm afraid that time will change secretly.
The beauty and beauty in front of us are always fleeting, fleeting in youth, just like an instant dream, the scenery is unsustainable, giving people the feeling of desolation and decline.
At the beginning of Meng Chang's succession, he reorganized the bureaucracy, wrote the Official Document, awarded it to the county, and encouraged agriculture and promoted education. On the basis of "Nine Classics" in Tang Dynasty, he published "Eleven Classics".
However, bending the law, being an official and taking bribes are endless. Even in the imperial examination, he was not immune from bribery. The so-called briber was promoted, and the examiner decided whether he was elected or not by the amount of bribes, but his face was clear. Some judicial officials even pointed to the prison gate and said, "This is my money stove."
For this phenomenon, Meng Changjun can't correct it, even indulge in debauchery, and can't resist Song Bing's attack. Until the death of the country, the prosperity of the rest of my life was a dream.
