Chapter 14 The father-in-law of the previous life
Chu Ziyan understood in seconds, and she also knew a lot about this father-in-law in her previous life. www.biquge.info He is brilliant in writing and his painting is very good. The emperor invited him into the palace to paint a portrait. It's just that he has no intention of officialdom, otherwise, with his ingenuity, the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion would not be the miserable scene it was back then.
It's just not as good as the Guogong Mansion, it's the Yipin Gonghou Mansion. However, in the Hou Mansion of Congyipin, the Hou Mansion of Pingyuan is often looked down upon. There is no other reason, no money and no power.
The Fang clan is so smart, but he is also clever. She couldn't drag this Hou Mansion up at all, although she had made so many efforts, but she could only keep the face of the Hou Mansion bright. However, this person, as long as he wants, can make Pingyuan Marquis Mansion the first Marquis Mansion in the capital at any time.
Even back then, Xiao Yifeng, who was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, said that they were able to clean up Su Zhiyuan so smoothly and take the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion. The key reason is not because the Fang family is a monk, but because this powerful person died.
If he was still here, maybe they wouldn't be able to find the slightest trick to destroy Su Zhiyuan. Come to think of it, this father-in-law is really a character. It's just that in his previous life, why did he get sick after Lin Wei came, and the Fang family also entered the Huangjue Temple to become a monk.
At the time, she didn't have time to think. Now, I guess it's not necessary.
Since he has decided to stay away from Su Zhiyuan, it is natural that everything related to him must be kept away.
"That's his son," Wang tilted his head, thought for a while, and said, "Yan'er, it's better not to take a fancy to him." ”
"Why?" Chu Ziyan was curious as to why her aunt had this opinion.
"His mother, Fang, has a bad reputation in the circle. There is such a mother-in-law, and you will receive it in the future. ”
"Really?" Although Chu Ziyan said this, she still admired her aunt in her heart for knowing people very clearly. In his previous life, he had suffered a lot under the hands of the Fang clan. Later, fortunately, the Fang clan entered the Huangjue Temple, otherwise, he might have died earlier.
"Cousin, do you really want to enter the palace?" Chu Ziyan asked curiously: "The emperor is already very old, you are not suitable for him." ”
is so straightforward, such explicit, even if it is Wang, it may not be able to say it. Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Gu Yuanmiao's face changed, but she still said very calmly: "I'm old, besides, my family background is there, I must be going to participate in the draft." Besides, you can also marry the prince or other royal relatives. Shen Qiutong was married to the fifth prince in the last draft. ”
"Daughter, your temperament is soft, and you are actually not suitable for the royal family. Wang continued: "You can also see, if you can choose a good one today, your mother will definitely ......."
Gu Yuanmiao shook her head and said, "Mother, you know, this is impossible. I'm famous, I'm definitely going to participate in the draft. ”
Chu Ziyan looked at Gu Yuanmiao, she actually wanted to tell her cousin that when you were drafted this year, you would be favored by the emperor and named Concubine Xue. After a few years, the emperor will pass away. However, he could not say anything.
Because the list of the draft has come down a long time ago, and my cousin is on the list. The maternal grandfather and the eldest uncle are all direct ministers of Gengjie, if they want their cousin to marry into the royal family. Even if they don't agree, they won't resist. This may be the disadvantage of being too famous.
"Yes, aunt, maybe it's just to marry a few children of the royal family. Chu Ziyan also persuaded against her will: "Aunt, if you want to blame, you can only blame your cousin for being so good-looking, even the royal family has to worry about it." There are people like me who don't care about it now. ”
"You, maybe that's a good thing. Wang listened to her words, and still eased the distress just now. And they immediately threw themselves into the husband.
Before I knew it, the dishes on the table had bottomed out, and lunch was over.
"Let's go, let's go to the study below. ”
"What are you going to do there?"
"You'll know when you go. ”
Chu Ziyan followed them to a small room upstairs next to the living room.
I saw Wang's "shh
The wood carving is round, about the size of a round table, and the eight immortals are carved across the sea. It is Huanghuali, and the carving is very good. There was still light below, and just when Chu Ziyan wanted to say something, she heard: "I have heard someone praise Wang Maha, there are poems in paintings, and there are paintings in poems." I didn't expect to see such a work today, it's really worth the trip. ”
"Brother Su, do you know who painted this?" asked Gu Wentao.
"But among those talented people just now?" Su Buqing also understood that since Gu Wentao asked like this, he must have either seen it or knew it. But among the people I am familiar with, there is really no such person.
"Don't embarrass Brother Su, it's the student in the dark green robe just now, surnamed Lin, with a single name and a great character. Agile thinking and integrity. Gu Wentao stroked his beard and said, "It's the one Brother Su said he was rude just now." ”
"Even the snacks at the banquet have to be put back, if this person wants to go to officialdom in the future, he is not a corrupt official. It's too light to say that he is rude. ”
"Brother Su doesn't know, that person's family is poor. There is only one mother in the family, who sews and mends for others to provide for his education. As for him, in addition to going to Guozijian to read every day, he goes to copy books for the bookstore when he has time. Copying a book can earn more than a dozen essays, and, most importantly, the owner of the bookstore provides him with pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
It saves him from spending money on these things. However, even if he was so poor, he would not eat the food that came to him. I sent someone to send him money, but he didn't accept it. Therefore, he instructed the bookstore to give him more things to do. When his mother was sick, she loved to eat mung bean cakes. Moreover, he was in the kitchen with mung bean cakes. Before installing it, I asked the kitchen manager.
It's not stealing, it's just that I can't bear to see it wasted. ”
Su Buqing's face was slightly better, but he still said: "Even if it's like this, it doesn't mean anything." It's just that you know that the emperor opened a branch to take a scholar. It's been so many years, and most of the courtiers in the court are from noble families, do you know why?"
"Same interests, less conflict. Gu Wentao said: "However, if this continues, if the world's moves make trouble, it will not be fun." ”
"What's the trouble, didn't the emperor choose Liu Chunlin, a son of a poor family, to be a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. Students all over the world thought they saw hope. In fact, just to put on a fruit, Liu Chunlin has been an official for so many years. It can be seen that in addition to compiling books, he has any real power.
When these famous students come up, they will also sit on the cold bench in the Hanlin Academy for a few years, and they will be able to see through this situation. The emperor will not promote the children of the poor family from the bottom of his heart, and go against the noble family. It's not that the emperor misses the old days. (To be continued.) )
