After coaxing Brother Heng to sleep at night, he let the nurse carry him back to the east courtyard, and then made tea and sat down with Qi Rong on the low couch in the west side room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Lord Wang, what the hell is going on?"

Qi Rong took a sip of tea, "It's also fate." Mr. Qian introduced Brother Xiu to Nanlu Academy, and Wei Ting, the head of the academy, happened to teach Brother Xiu to talk about strategy, and he was very attentive to Brother Xiu, and often pointed out his current writings.

And Lord Xu was transferred to Zhongshu Province as a waiter more suddenly, and at first he thought that he would transfer the thorn history on the other side of the two lakes. Before Mrs. Xu left, she asked her brother to help her eldest daughter talk about family affairs, and she probably didn't want her eldest daughter to enter the palace. Who knew that Wei Shanchang had taken a fancy to Brother Xiu'er.

After Brother Xiu returned to his hometown to guard the system, he often exchanged letters with Wei Shanchang, and Wei Shanchang helped to catch the topic and comment, and took care of it very much. As soon as Mrs. Xu mentioned Miss Xu's relatives, Wei Shanchang thought of Brother Xiu, and I only knew it so clearly when I received Mr. Qian's letter. ”

Zhen Wanyi also took a sip of tea, "So that Wei Shanchang has helped the starling a lot." ”

Qi Rong raised his eyebrows slightly, "Chief Wei is the head of the academy, and Brother Xiu'er is smart and self-assured, any gentleman will like it." ”

Zhen Wanyi was relieved to hear this, for fear that the Wei family would force Zhen Xiujie to marry Miss Xu with this point.

Qi Rong looked at Zhen Wanyi's expression and wondered, "Why, you don't like Miss Xu?" ”

Zhen Wanyi shook her head, "It's not that I don't like Miss Xu, it's just that I don't like their family's style." If you say you're pro, you can say you're pro, but Mrs. Xu made a condition to let Miss Xu Er replace Miss Xu in the palace draft. She didn't say that Miss Xu said about her family affairs earlier, and she also took Miss Xu everywhere to attend banquets, so she didn't want to enter the palace and wanted to get out, so she used the starling's lifelong event to talk about the conditions. I don't like her way. ”

Qi Rong said with a smile: "The Xu family and the Wei family are both well-known in the south of the Yangtze River for their poetry and books, and they are the homes of cultivation and reading. The Wei family, that is, Emperor Xiaoren, had a queen, so the direct family withdrew from officialdom, but almost half of the Jiangnan Shizi are inextricably linked with the Wei family.

And the Xu family is a big family in Minnan, and there have been tired officials in the clan, and almost every one or two generations there are children of the Xu family who have joined Zhongshu Province. This generation is Xu Wenxiang, who is only over forty years old and is a third-grade Zhongshu waiter, and he may not be promoted to Zhongshu Ling in the future. It would also be a good thing if Brother Xiu'er could have such a Yue family to help. ”

Zhen Wanyi frowned, Qi Rong was only twenty-six years old and had already taken up the position of Zhongshu Ling, if Xu Wenxiang was promoted to Zhongshu Ling, what should Qi Rong do? Tangled said: "There is a prince, you starling, it doesn't matter if you want such a Yue family or not." ”

Qi Rong smiled and rubbed Zhen Wanyi's hair, "It's still secretive to talk to your husband." It will only take fifteen years at most to be a husband, but after fifteen years, Brother Xiu'er may not be able to grow up. The husband hopes that after fifteen years, Brother Xiu'er will at least be the official to the position of the sixth servant of the fourth grade or Zhongcheng Shaoqing, so that after the husband retires, he will do his best to help him sit on the third grade, and he will be able to connect with the next generation in the future. ”

Zhen Wanyi didn't know much about court affairs, so she could only ask: "Why can't you do this book order for fifteen years, and you are still so young." Fifteen years later, Qi Rong was only forty-one years old, and he was in the prime of life.

Qi Rong's eyes narrowed slightly, "For the husband to sit in the post of Zhongshu Ling, first, His Majesty wants to repay the favor of the battle of Tongyang Pass, and secondly, in recent years, the capital has made several big moves, which have led to the transfer of talents to zero, and there is no available person under His Majesty." But it will only be fifteen years at most, and those who should grow up can stand alone, and those who should be promoted can also find someone to take over, and then the husband should consciously retire. How many princes in the past dynasties can hold the post of prime minister? ”

Zhen Wanyi understands in seconds, this is the unpredictable heart of the emperor, when it is useful, it is naturally good, and when it is no longer used or blocks the way of those who can use it, then you should consciously retreat.

"Retreat, retreat, you are so busy and hard every day that you have lost weight, we are not uncommon to see the official of this Chinese order."

Looking at Zhen Wanyi's calf-like look, Qi Rong's heart was even softer, no matter what happened in the future, he always had to find a way. "Brother Xiu'er's matter has to think about it again for the husband, go and try Xu Wenxiang, and when you have a decision, you will send Wu Yong to go to Qinghe City in person."

This means that Zhen Wanyi should not care anymore.

Zhen Wanyi bit her lip, "Then you have to think about it, the Xu family is so high, I don't want my mother to invite the Bodhisattva back to make offerings." There is also a sixth sister-in-law, she is the eldest daughter-in-law of our house, but her mother's family is not visible, what if Miss Xu enters the door, what if the sixth sister-in-law enters? ”

Qi Rong raised his eyebrows, obviously he didn't expect Zhen Wanyi to talk about this aspect, if Zhen Wanyi didn't remind him that a big man was staring at the temple, who would think about the back house.

"If this matter doesn't matter, it's a big deal that the brothers will split up."

Zhen Wanyi's eyes widened, "Are the parents dividing the property?" ”

Qi Rong smiled and reassured: "What's wrong with this, live your own life behind closed doors, and if you are not together, the contradictions will naturally be smaller." Besides, the sixth brother doesn't want to return to Beijing within fifteen years, if Brother Xiu'er's official career is smooth, it will be difficult to return to Beijing for the rest of his life, and it will be difficult to get along with it. ”

Zhen Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief, the sixth brother couldn't go back to Beijing to avoid suspicion and let the starling stay in the capital. "You said as if the starling must be able to mix up in the capital."

Qi Rong smiled mysteriously, "I'm sure you can just look at next year's palace exam." ”

Zhen Wanyi calculated, it was almost June, and Zhen Xiujie at the end of September just happened to be filial, and he was the grandson of the first generation who could keep the system for a year. "Will starlings participate in the township test this year?"

"Of course it will, if you miss this year, you have to wait another three years, I can't afford to wait."

Zhen Wanyi clasped her hands together, "Amitabha, the Bodhisattva blesses the starling to be filial piety." ”

"If Brother Xiu'er can't even pass the exam, then you don't have to go to Beijing to stay in Qinghe City for the rest of your life. When the sixth brother recovers, he will go directly to Beijing. ”

Zhen Wanyi pouted, "Lord Wang, how can you say that, starling is still young, if you don't succeed in this subject, there will be another one." ”

Qi Rong sighed in his heart and sighed: Time waits for no one. There was a relaxed smile on his face, "Back then, I was with your sixth brother and Qi Changming, and Jia Zhen were not all about the same age, how could they be admitted in one subject." ”

Zhen Wanyi tilted her head and thought about it, it seems that it is also oh, so it shouldn't be difficult to come to the township to test. Qi Changming has been studying in Fuxue, Jia Zhen was taught by the old lady and uncle at home after returning to Qinghe City, while Zhen Xiujie and Qi Rong went out to study for three years, and they didn't seem to do anything else, so they were easily admitted.

Zhen Xiujie stayed in the capital for a year, Guozijian also went, Qi Rong also took him to visit the famous teacher Hongru in the capital, and sent him to the most prestigious Nanlu Academy in the south of the Yangtze River, and got the guidance of the mountain chief.
