Chapter 365: Climbing the Dragon and Attaching the Phoenix
Lord Xuan's stomach is bitter, no one confides in, today coincides with the arrival of this King Liang, mentioning this matter, Lao Xuan did not have the slightest reservation, that is, he told his difficulties one by one.
"Chitose-sama! I have just taken up my post, and I am not yet familiar with the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, but these important members of the imperial court have come over and asked me to take care of their children, so that they can be inscribed on the gold list. Moreover, the selection of talents for the country is not trivial. I, a newcomer, have no foundation and no connections, but I dare not offend these important members of the court!
King Liang also frowned when he heard this, "If this is the case, these people are too bold to dare to make a fuss about the scientific examination! You don't have to pay attention to them, act in strict accordance with the law, don't worry about offending anyone, and let them come to me if they don't want to! ”
After hearing this, Lao Xuan was very moved in his heart, with King Liang as his backing, he could be busy with these complicated affairs with peace of mind.
"Thank you for your support of our work in the Ministry of Rites, and I can finally do things according to my principles with peace of mind. Lao Xuan was full of gratitude to King Liang.
"Lord Xuan, you can do it boldly, and if you have any difficulties, just look for me. Our great imperial court lacks this kind of down-to-earth person. King Liang's words invisibly gave Lao Xuan another reassurance.
Lord Xuan observed his words and felt that King Liang's visit today was by no means as simple as chatting, and he must have something important to look for him, so he asked with understanding: "Chitose! How are you doing lately?"
King Liang shook his head helplessly, "I don't have anything to do, it's just that I'm heartbroken all day long for that playful son? This kid can't make a mistake! I'm idle every day, and I don't want to make progress, and I can't do anything about him! I think about telling him about family affairs, and having a virtuous wife to discipline him, so that he can be retracted." That's right! That day, I saw that Ling Qianjin was elegant and virtuous, generous and decent, I don't know if it was a marriage match?"
As soon as these words came out, Lao Xuan suddenly realized, it turned out that King Liang deliberately came for his son's marriage today, and that day he felt that this round jade was staring at Xuan Ya with good eyes, so he guessed that he must have thought about his daughter. As we all know, this round jade is a gentleman, who hangs out with those slaves and maids in his house all day long, and also messes with flowers and grass everywhere, and does not do his job, if anyone becomes his wife, he will suffer. Lao Xuan thought in his heart like this, he was very unwilling, he couldn't push his daughter into the fire pit! Then he thought about it, who was this in front of him? King Liang was the emperor's own brother, the body of the emperor's relatives and relatives, and he was also a thousand-year-old master who was above 10,000 people under one person.
The power of others is too great, to put it bluntly, it is easy to get anything, and now they are discussing with themselves with their hearts, but they can afford to look at themselves. How can he not give face to King Liang, and once his daughter marries, then his identity will no longer be more than this Ministry of Rites, but he has changed and become a relative of the emperor, in that case, his colleagues will be impressed. He himself was born poor and had no foundation, so this high needle that climbed to the king of Liang was naturally in the court, and he could call for wind and rain. I don't have to take care of this and that emotion anymore, and I am always cautious. What about the daughter, although she is married to a playful child, she enjoys endless glory and wealth. to become
The man of man.
If it weren't for this, how could he have climbed to such a prominent position? This is like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Once he misses it, it will be too late to regret it.
Thinking of this, Lao Xuan hurriedly replied: "Chitose! This girl should be the same age as the young man of Yuanyu, and she is not yet married!"
After hearing this, King Liang couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, "Well, I see! Then I want to make a connection, let these two get married, you and I will be a family of sons and daughters, I don't know what Lord Xuan wants?"
Lao Xuan was also very happy in his heart, "Chitose!
Besides, you and I are a family when we are married to our children, so is it possible that our own family members should be divided into grades according to the rule of the court officials? Wouldn't they be laughed at by the people of the world? Don't think too much, since Lord Xuan has no objections, then I will pick a good day and an auspicious day to complete the marriage between them. King Liang smiled and said very happily.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate! There is a matter of Lao Chitose Zhang Luo!" Lao Xuan is naturally overjoyed, which is a great joy for him.
In this way, the two hit it off and reached a consensus, and the two future in-laws also chatted very hotly.
Xuan Ya and Zhan Rong are together almost every day, and Xuan Ya has convenient conditions to make her subordinates drive to meet Zhan Rong under the big tree at the entrance of the village. The two of them snuggled up to each other, chatted, read together the beautiful books brought by the carriage, and the sweetness was even greater than before, and how they wished that time could be frozen forever, and they would always stay together under the big tree at the entrance of the village, in this hut of love. This is what they want to see the most.
"Brother Zhanrong, let's be husband and wife, I want to take you and your parents to Shangshu Mansion! In that way, we can get married as soon as possible and live together. Xuanya said her thoughts without reservation.
"Sister Xuanya, being with you is what I hope for the most! It is also what I dream of. However, I still think that it is one thing for the two of us to agree, and the key depends on your father's attitude. After all, it is different now than before, your family is an official family, and my family is a poor person at the bottom of society, and it is necessary to be a good family member when they get married, but your current family background is very different. This wedding is an important event in your life, so you must first seek your father's opinion. Discuss with him!" Zhan Rong is still quite rational, he did not let happiness get carried away, on the contrary, he had already felt something, and it can be said that this premonition was a little bad.
Xuanya listened, but she was very unimpressed, he felt that her father would fully respect her opinion, after all, the person she chose wanted to live with her for the rest of her life, not with her father. This marriage is a matter of self-knowledge that can only be said by the two lovers. She felt that Zhanrong was a little indecisive, so she said indignantly: "Don't you like me? Why do you always find some reasons for not doing this, and finding some reasons for not doing that! I told you, we are talking about love, not about family background, how can I talk about you to believe it!
Zhanrong had no choice, so he had to nod and agree. In this way, the two took their parents to Shangshu in a carriage
Prefecture.
Xuanya ran forward and backward enthusiastically, and found two big houses to settle Zhanrong and his parents. took Zhanrong's hand, and the two came to his father Lao Xuan's room together, but saw that his father was reviewing the stacks of documents and materials. It's a lot of fun.
"Father, who do you think I've brought here?" said Xuanya excitedly to her father.
Lao Xuan inadvertently raised his head, and his heart chuckled, what is the reason? He saw Zhanrong beside his daughter, and he recalled that when he was in the village in the past, his daughter and he were childhood sweethearts, and the two were together every day.
The two were very close to each other, and he had thought before that when the two of them were a few years older, they would get married. How did he know that he was the title of the gold list and went to the post of Shangshu, this change completely dispelled his past thoughts, especially after King Liang found him, he had reached a consensus with King Liang to marry his daughter to that round jade as his wife. Red mouth and white teeth have promised others.
Now there is another Zhanrong in the middle of the way, looking at this poor boy in rags, Lao Xuan is very disgusted from the heart. He couldn't watch this kid ruin his dream of soaring. If you want to make a difference in the court, you have to climb a big tree, just like the so-called good shade under the big tree!
Xuanya said excitedly: "Father, they have suffered a lot of sins in that poor and remote country! ”
Lao Xuan didn't listen, but when he heard this, he frowned and stopped talking!
For a while, Zhanrong was hung there, but he couldn't get off the stage. He knew that Lao Xuan was no longer the impoverished Xuan Xiucai who made a living by writing, and now that he was a high-ranking official of the imperial court, how could he tolerate this poor and ragged old neighbor? Lord Xuan's attitude was already very clear, and if people were silent, they would not welcome his family, and it would be too boring to wait for others to issue this eviction order and drive his family away.
Thinking of this, Zhan Rong gave a deep salute and said very respectfully: "Uncle Xuan! I didn't come here today with any other intention, just to come to see you, and I didn't mean to live here, but now I see you as an official in the court, everything is fine, and I am relieved! You are busy with affairs, so I won't bother here! Farewell!" As he spoke, he glanced at his lover Xuanya gently, and then turned around and left in a hurry.
This is to leave Xuanya there. She was a little at a loss for what to do, and she didn't know what to do, so she hurriedly chased her out and stopped her lover Zhanrong from leaving, but where could she stop it! Zhanrong had made up her mind, and her father had that kind of attitude, it was really difficult to keep him, although she kept it again and again to no avail, so she could only arrange for her subordinates to prepare the carriage and horses and pull the family of three back to the village.
Xuanya kept sending them out of the house, watching the carriage disappear from sight, and when she returned to the mansion, she was very annoyed, she secretly complained to her father about how she could treat people like this, people came from afar, and they should take good care of them!
