Chapter 291: The Legend of Yang Shiqi
() I only heard the prince surnamed Wang continue: "Speaking of which, Lord Yang also has a bit of a legend?"
The other son obviously didn't know, put away the paper fan and said, "Could it be that Brother Wang knows?"
The prince surnamed Wang nodded a little proudly, shook the paper fan lightly and said, "My uncle has some friendship with Lord Yang in the court, but I have heard him say it?"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused the curiosity of several sons, that is, Yang Zheng, who couldn't help but get a little closer after hearing this, and wanted to hear what is the legend of this squire of the Ministry of Rites and the scholar of the Huagai Palace, and the secretary of the Ministry of War?
After the prince surnamed Wang was proud, he spoke slowly, and Yang Zheng listened for a while and understood a general idea.
When Yang Shiqi was very young, his father died, and he lived with his mother, Yang's mother was a very far-sighted woman, although life was difficult, but she always let Yang Shiqi study, and all the salutes in the family were discarded, except for a copy of "University", so when Yang Shiqi was very young, he would recite "University" and be famous in the township.
But studying costs money, a woman who has no support, with a child, the hardships of life can be imagined, a few years later, Yang Shiqi's mother remarried, and Yang Shiqi has had an additional stepfather since then.
This stepfather's name is Luo Xing, not an ordinary family, but a child of a family, but he was a very famous celebrity at that time, and he also held an official position.
Yang Shiqi followed his mother to live in Luo's house, because he was not his own child, so Luo Xing did not give Yang Shiqi a good face, so the people in the family did not give Yang Shiqi a good face.
Soon, Luo Xing also forced Yang Shiqi to change his surname to Luo, which was a bit unreasonable, but Yang Shiqi was still young at the time and couldn't refute it, so he followed Luo Xing's surname Luo from then on.
This surname has been surnamed for two years, and I know that two years later, an astonishing move by eight-year-old Yang Shiqi made him regain his original surname?"
The prince surnamed Wang intended to show off, and said very slowly, Yang Zheng was a little impatient, but he couldn't help being curious, so he had to wait patiently for a while.
The son surnamed Wang was proud, but he didn't hide it, and told Yang Shiqi's childhood experience in one go.
It turned out that when Yang Shiqi was eight years old, the Luo family held a ceremony to worship the ancestors, and Yang Shiqi, who was still a child at the time, thought of his father, took advantage of Luo Xing's inattention, picked up clods from outside, made the appearance of a god, found a corner where no one noticed, and solemnly bowed to his deceased father.
Then, unfortunately, the things that Yang Shiqi thought were secret were clearly seen by Luo Xing.
I thought that he would be kicked out of the Luo family, or beaten badly, but what I didn't expect was that not long after, Luo Xing found Yang Shiqi and told him that he had seen his behavior of worshiping his ancestors, and also told him that from now on, he would restore his surname Yang and no longer have his surname Luo, and also said something to him, to the effect that you are only eight years old, but you can send people under the fence without falling into their will, and do not forget your ancestors, you will become a great weapon in the future! You don't have to change your surname, you will definitely not insult your biological father's surname in the future. ”
Since then, Luo Xing has begun to look at Yang Shiqi differently and really cultivate Yang Shiqi!"
But there are many good things, Yang Shiqi, who has just received Luo Xing's attention, did not live a good life for a few days, only a year later, Luo Xing was demoted to a distant place for his crimes, and Yang Shiqi and his mother's life once again fell into a more difficult situation, but in this case, Yang's mother still insisted on letting Yang Shiqi study?
"The mother of the Yang family is enough to compare to Meng's mother's three moves?" several sons praised sincerely.
Yang Zheng also nodded secretly: "This Yang family's mother is indeed a great mother?"
The brother surnamed Wang knew a lot, and when he saw that everyone was attracted to him, he said more and more proudly.
Yang Shiqi was degraded because of his Luo nature, his family became more and more impoverished, Yang Shiqi because his mother wanted to be supported, and he could not go to Beijing to catch up with other scholars to make a name for himself, in order to supplement the family, he was hired by the township at the age of fifteen and opened an apprenticeship. After that, he lived in Wuchang and other places, traveled to study and teach, and wrote books and lectures, and was praised and appreciated by the literati and scholars.
I don't know if this story is too touching, or if everyone is very curious about the childhood life of Lord Yang, who is also a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and Rites, and a scholar of the Huagai Palace, and a scholar of the Ministry of War, and for a while, in addition to Yang Zheng, there were many people around.
The brother surnamed Wang seems to be a master who loves to show off, and he was very proud to see everyone cheering like this, and under the urging of everyone, he continued to speak.
Although Yang Shiqi's life is difficult, he is not endless, and during his time as a private school, he also did a very great thing in Yang Zheng's opinion.
There is also a down-and-out gentleman who teaches in the private school with Yang Shiqi, because he has a high hall, a wife and children, and his life is very difficult, and he can't live by teaching.
This colleague is also an honest man, but he was moved but didn't agree, because he knew that Yang Shiqi's life was not much better than his own, and he also had a mother to support?"
But Yang Shiqi still did this, half of the students, half of the remuneration was given to colleagues on time, I thought that my mother would be unhappy, but I didn't expect Yang's mother to be unimpressed, but said: "You can do this, and it will not be in vain for my years of teaching?"
The prince surnamed Wang always tells the stories of others, and he has no personal feelings, so this dialogue between the mother and son of the Yang family was extremely ordinary by him, but Yang Zheng was still slightly moved, the poorer he is, the more human nature can be demonstrated, and the words of the Yang family's housewife are no worse than those great mothers.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
In the early years of Emperor Jianwen, he recruited Confucian scholars from all over the world to compile and repair the "Tai Zu Shilu", and Yang Shiqi was recommended to be requisitioned as a professor. was about to take office, Wang Shuying recommended him because of his talent in history. So, he was summoned to the Hanlin Academy as a codification officer. Soon after, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Officials to take an examination to evaluate the ranking of Confucian scholars in the History Museum, and Zhang Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, saw the countermeasures written by Yang Shiqi and said: "This is not what ordinary Confucian students can say. So he was the first to play. As a result, the imperial court appointed him as the deputy judge of the Wu Palace, but still let him serve in the Record Museum. Ming Chengzu Zhu Di ascended the throne and was reappointed as editor. Later, he was elected to the cabinet and was in charge of confidential military affairs, and a few months later he was promoted to a waiter, and then assisted Zhu Gaochi to sit firmly on the throne of the prince and made great contributions, thus becoming a very popular minister.
There was a burst of amazement in the crowd, more envy, and a little jealousy.
Yang Zheng smiled bitterly, the world always envied the brilliance of others after their success, but they forgot how much suffering they had endured and how many hardships they experienced before this success.
The crowd was chattering, it seemed extremely lively, Yang Zheng saw that he couldn't hear anything interesting below, shook his head and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard a person rushing in from outside the door, panting and shouting to the people in the county office: "Quick, go and inform the county magistrate, Yang Shiqi, Lord Yang is here?" A servant in the county government paused for a moment, turned around and ran, and his movements were extremely fast.
But his rapid movements were still a little slower than Yang Shiqi's arrival, because Yang Zheng had already heard a commotion and footsteps at the gate of the county government.
He looked up at the sound and saw that in front of the county yamen, after a burst of footsteps, several men in brocade clothes and guards stood outside the door with the embroidered spring knife one step ahead.
"Damn, this pomp is quite big, I really don't know what kind of character this Yang Shiqi is?"
Yang Zheng muttered, he couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart, being able to see the demeanor of the first minister of the Ming Dynasty was a big deal.
Jin Yiwei got out of the way, and in the midst of everyone's thousands of calls, Yang Shiqi walked out, wearing a red official robe, wearing an official hat, radiant, and strode in!
Yang Zheng only glanced at it, his body was stunned, and he stared at Yang Shiqi who walked in with a smile on his face, with an unbelievable expression: "This is not the old man who played Tai Chi in Lingyin Temple, is he the famous Yang Shiqi?"
"Hey, this brother, may I ask who this old man is? Why is it so pompous?"
Yang Zheng asked the prince surnamed Wang beside him, the shocked prince surnamed Wang, turned his head and glared at him in disgust, then looked at him with idiot eyes, and said coldly: "The person who can use the brocade clothes to guard the guard, except for the current saint, the prince, who else has such a big face, of course he is Yang Shiqi?"
"Damn, do you know it's amazing?" Yang Zheng felt the contempt and ridicule in the eyes of the prince surnamed Wang, and scolded very unpleasantly.
But the prince surnamed Wang didn't know whether he was hanging Yang Shiqi too much, or the voice in the county government was too loud, so he didn't hear his scolding.
At this moment, Yang Shiqi had already walked into the county office, and a brocade guard beside him was still a little nervous to follow him, squinting slightly at everyone, and his face was indifferent.
Yang Shiqi glanced at everyone with a smile, and when his eyes fell on Yang Zheng's face, he smiled and said, "Isn't this Brother Yang?"
"So you can see that your old man's eyes are really vicious?" Yang Zheng muttered in his heart, seeing the surprised gazes of everyone, especially the prince surnamed Wang who had despised himself before, his eyes were surprised at this time, and he seemed a little envious, and he was immediately very proud, and said in his heart: "This old man, he is quite good at giving me face?"
"Haha, it turns out that Brother Yang is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the scholar of the Huagai Palace, and the scholar of the Ministry of War, can you deceive the little brother so hard?"
Yang Shiqi snorted and said, "When did the old man lie to you?"
Facing the current number one minister, Yang Zheng did not have the slightest consciousness of the grass people to see the officials, neither bowed nor bowed, and couldn't help but worry secretly when he saw the admiration of everyone.
