Wang Zhizheng took his wife, Qingqing and Yizi Liangyi, the eldest son Liangxuan, and the youngest son Liangfang to rest overnight in the county government of Shen Shao Prophet, and the next morning at dawn, he said goodbye to Shen Shaoxian and Meng Huacheng and went straight to Ruan's mother's house. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The Nguyen clan of Tongcheng is one of the three major clans of Nguyen, Zuo and Zhou in Tongcheng County.

When the convoy arrived at Ruan's house, Mrs. Ruan sighed and said, "I haven't returned to Ning for many years, and I don't want the scene at home to change at all." ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded slightly.

After getting out of the carriage, Ruan Shi walked to the door and smiled at the servant at the door: "Ruan Gui, please tell the master, and say that my daughter is back." ”

The servant looked at Ruan Shi and asked, "Are you your aunt?" ”

Ruan Shi smiled slightly and said, "Exactly." ”

The servant patted it: "Oh, my aunt and grandmother are back to save their relatives, what else do you want, please come in quickly." ”

Zuo Yunqing, Wang Zhizheng followed his sons Liangxue, Liangfang and Liangyi, and entered the mansion with Ruan.

The servant Ruan Gui led a few people into the study, and he said loudly: "Master, my aunt and grandmother are back." ”

At this time, an old gentleman in his fifties strode out, looked at his daughter and aunt who he hadn't seen for a long time, and said very kindly: "Qingqiu (Ruan's boudoir name), why don't you say hello in advance when you and the prince come back?" When did you arrive in Tongcheng? ”

Wang Zhizheng bowed down respectfully and saluted: "Son-in-law greets my father-in-law." Tongcheng, who arrived last night, stayed in his house for a night because Lord Shen of Tongcheng County and I were old friends. ”

Since Wang Zhizheng entered the world, it was the first time he had seen his father-in-law, so he was somewhat unfamiliar.

Old lady Ruan knew that her son-in-law was the commander of the Praetorian Guard, the crown prince, and the scholar of Wenhua Palace, so how dare she be the slightest slack.

He smiled and said, "Hurry up, the two of us come to the study to drink tea and chat, Qingqiu, you place this young lady and the children to rest in the guest room first." ”

Ruan Shi smiled and said, "Yes, father, then you two can talk, and I will ask my aunt to go to peace." ”

The soft old lady invited Wang Zhizheng to the study, and then instructed Ruan Gui: "Quick, go and call your third master." ”

Wang Zhizheng understood that the third master that the old man was talking about was his third brother Ruan Dacheng.

Ruan Dacheng, is one of the seven gentlemen of Donglin Gao Panlong's disciple, for the Donglin Party, after Gao Panlong was killed, the Donglin Party was crushed with each other, Ruan Dacheng was squeezed out, transferred to Wei Zhongxian's disciples, after Wei Zhongxian's death, Emperor Chongzhen in view of Ruan Dacheng and Wang Zhizheng's in-law relationship, did not kill him, but dismissed and repatriated to his hometown of Tongcheng, and now he has been idle at home for more than a year.

In his heart, Wang Zhizheng didn't really want to see this person.

Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly: "Father-in-law, are you okay?" ”

Ruan Daying smiled, handed the brewed tea to Wang Zhizheng and said: "I am over fifty years old, how much better can my body be, there are no major problems, but small problems do not stop." How are Mr. and Mrs. Chongguo in good health? ”

Wang Zhizheng took a sip of tea: "My father is in good health, he likes to practice, and generally speaking, he will raise him quite well, and my mother's health is not bad, but she is slightly depressed." ”

Ruan Daying said with concern: "To treat depression, it is best to go out and walk more, after you return to Beijing this time, when I tell Chongguo and his wife, I will say that I invite them and his wife to live in Jiangnan for a while, which can be regarded as a love for the landscape, which must be good for the body." ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly: "Yes." This time I came back with a good choice, that is, let the good choice come to meet your old man. ”

Ruan Daying smiled and stroked his beard and asked, "I heard that the name of Liangxue was taken by the emperor today?" ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "Yes, when the emperor was in the letter mansion, I invited him to choose the name of the good choice in the name of my cousin, which means: good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers choose the lord to do things." ”

Ruan Daying frowned: "A good minister chooses the lord to do things, how can it be, he should only be loyal to his father." ”

Wang Zhizheng did not want to discuss the theoretical basis of the Confucian classics with this pedantic old man, let alone directly say that this "master" referred to Thaksin Wang Zhu Youzhen.

He just smiled slightly: "The emperor's golden mouth and jade words, it is already a great honor to be able to name the dog." ”

At this moment, a middle-aged man in his early forties walked in, politely giving a salute to Ruan Daying first, and then to Wang Zhizheng.

Ruan Daying nodded, and Wang Zhizheng smiled: "The third uncle doesn't need to be polite, when I come to the Ruan family, I will be the younger generation." ”

Ruan Dacheng smiled and sat beside the eldest brother, and smiled at Wang Zhizheng: "Master Hou came this time, and he didn't inform him in advance, so we can arrange it properly." ”

Wang Zhizheng waved his hand: "It is precisely because I am afraid of your troubles that I am not invited." How is the third uncle doing lately? ”

A sentence asked Ruan Dacheng's sore spot, and he poured himself the yellow tea that was a specialty of Huizhou Mansion in distress, and sighed: "How good can it be?" I, Ruan Dacheng, am a notoriously unlucky guy, relying on the mountains and mountains, relying on everyone to run, the master Gao was killed, I was squeezed out by Donglin and defected to Wei Gelding, and now the eunuch party has been liquidated, it is not the Hou Ye who protects me, and I have already been separated......"

Wang Zhizheng snorted a little boredly, thinking: I came to Jiangnan to evacuate and be depressed, but it has only been a day, first Shen Shao poured bitter water, and then Ruan Dacheng complained.

Wang Zhizheng said coldly: "Defecting to Wei Zhongxian is your unwise move, I have reminded you many times, stop in time, and follow the king, but you don't have the foresight of Shen Shaoxian and Mao Yilu, tell me who is to blame?" ”

Hearing Wang Zhizheng's young nobleman's tone as cold as ice, the flexible and witty Ruan Dacheng hurriedly arched his hand and said, "What Master Hou taught me is that it was Ruan's speech that made a mistake. ”

Wang Zhizheng picked up the teacup and sipped it without saying a word.

Ruan Dacheng observed his words and knew that Wang Zhizheng did not buy him, so he glanced at his eldest brother Ruan Daying, wanting Ruan Daying to ask his son-in-law for personal favors and seek a glimmer of hope for his comeback.

Ruan Daying understood, and smiled slightly at Wang Zhizheng: "Pei Ran (Wang Zhizhengzi Pei Ran), although your third uncle did follow Wei Wei, but he didn't do evil, just to avoid Donglin Qing, you should know." ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded slightly and said, "Yes." ”

Wang Zhizheng thought to himself, didn't you two brothers join forces to persuade me to be alone, just to ask Ruan Laosan for a half-official position, Lao Tzu just didn't spit today.

Ruan Daying then said cheekily: "Pei Ran, the old man is old, and he hasn't bothered you for so many years, and my sons are not angry, so I think your third uncle has some talent, see if you can just look at the old man's face and say a few words in front of the emperor?" ”

Wang Zhizheng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, third uncle, you don't know the emperor today, now that the Donglin Party is rising again, although I am the emperor's cousin, but I don't have the weight of the Donglin Party, instead of talking to me, it is better to defect to the Donglin Party again." ”

Ruan Dacheng slapped his thigh and smiled bitterly: "Master Hou, you don't know, the Donglin Party now regards me as a traitor villain, how can they accept me!" ”

Wang Zhizheng pondered for a moment: "Zhang Pu, the leader of the Fushe Party, will go to Tongcheng in the past two days to pay tribute to the heroic soul of Zuo Guangdou Zuo Ge, Zhang Pu and I have old friends, and I can arrange for you to meet at that time." As for whether Zhang Pu is willing to help or not, and whether he can accept the third uncle, I don't care. ”

Hearing this, Ruan Dacheng seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw: "Thank you Hou Ye for mentioning it!" If you can get your wish, you will be rewarded in the future. ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said casually: "Excuse me, I want to be rich and rich now, I want to be idle and leisurely, what do I want you to repay?" ”

Ruan Dacheng stood up and bowed to his fists and said: "Master Hou doesn't come to Jiangnan often, we will have a banquet tonight, please try our famous dishes." ”

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "Okay, then thank you father-in-law and third uncle for your hospitality, I'm a little tired, go to the backyard to rest, and we'll talk in the evening." ”

As soon as Wang Zhizheng went out, Ruan Dacheng pulled down his face and said to the eldest brother: "Your son-in-law is really more slippery than a loach." ”

Ruan Daying glared at Ruan Dacheng and reprimanded: "You still have the face to say, if you didn't follow the eunuchs, how could it cause our Ruan family to be disgusted!" ”

Ruan Dacheng sighed: "The world is hot and cold, and now our Ruan family is like a big bubble of dung, and the scholars and doctors don't want to mess with our bad luck." ”

Ruan Daying stared at the third brother and said, "Don't complain, think about it, how to reconnect with Zhang Pu." ”

Ruan Dacheng nodded and was bound to win: "Zuoge Lao and I are both fellow villagers and close friends, Zhang Pu came to worship Zuoge Lao this time, I think I have a chance." ”
