Chapter 19: "Annoying"

The second more

The world knows that 'a woman from a high door marries a woman, and a woman from a low door'. The meaning of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info is very clear, if the daughter wants to marry higher than her own family, and live a good life, at least she must be the right person, and to marry a daughter-in-law, she should find it from someone who is slightly lower than her own family. This is a custom that has been practiced for thousands of years, and there is some truth to it.

The Zeng family married their sons to the same second-class family, but they were the daughters of the family, so how are they going to marry their daughters? What kind of people can get into the eyes of Mrs. Zeng? Therefore, even if it is a little monkey who is married this time, all Hunan officials see the vision of Mrs. Zeng's selection.

To tell the truth, there are not many people who have come to Beijing as officials from other places to be as lucky as Zeng Fan. Unless it was originally a wealthy family, and there was the help of the family after arriving in Beijing, it may only be said that it was not sad in Beijing. But when it comes to how to enter the circle of the powerful of the family, it is very difficult.

Zeng Fan has An Xiang's appreciation, and his capable wife has the blue eyes of these celebrity ladies, so he slowly integrates and becomes a part of them, in fact, if he is just a student of An Xiang, if Li Ping is like those fellow villagers, the Zeng family still can't enter that circle. No matter how many aristocratic students are taught, they may respect Zeng Fan as a good gentleman, but marriage is absolutely impossible.

Just like Lord He, he is ten years older than Zeng Fanke. is also from Hunan Province, but he is actually a Jinshi one term later than Zeng Fan. Fortunately, Zeng Fanjinshi's ranking is not high, otherwise Lord He would have to be depressed. Because he went to school, his family was poor, and he married a wife and had children in his twenties, but his wife was also an ordinary country woman, and she was not as good at dancing as Li Ping's long sleeves. There are many children born in the family, but only one son and one daughter survived.

And Lord He has been in Beijing for several years, and after befriending Zeng Fan, Zeng Fan introduced him to An Yuan, and slowly won An Yuan's appreciation, and he has slowly lived a good life at home in the past few years. But now he is also a five-grade talent, and he returns to Beijing with An Yuan to serve.

He also knew that An Yuan used him, more to give Zeng Fan face. Even if he has some appreciation for him, it is only the appreciation of superiors and subordinates, An Yuan regards Zeng Fan as a brother and only a subordinate to him.

For example, An Yuan knew that Lord He's daughter was good, and it was clear that An Hai was not married, but An Yuan never thought that it would be a reason to choose Lord He's daughter for his son. Even if An Hai is no longer successful, it is impossible for An Yuan to let him marry the daughter of the He family.

These people feel uncomfortable because they know this. Because Zeng Fan did what they couldn't do. They even feel that they may never be able to do it.

Although Lord He went to the little monkey's engagement banquet that day, at that time, although he was furious, but the sea was up and down, he was not the person who had no city, he still went. Then he saw that Zeng Fan's small courtyard was set up inside and outside the banquet, and there was a flowing water seat in the alley outside the door, and the members of the court who came to celebrate surrounded Zeng Fan in the middle, and his disciples all came to help, all of which stabbed Lord He's heart.

For the first time, his gratitude to Zeng Fan has become hatred now.

Zeng Fan is actually a little sluggish sometimes, he is a dedicated person, because of concentration, he can do the best in what he does, in the past two years, he has gone through the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and now, he is in the Ministry of Rites, although he has not been working for a long time, and he is also a deputy, but from this frequent transfer, it can also be seen how high Emperor Zhengyang's expectations are for him. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is the rhythm of letting him go through six ministries and move towards the cabinet. Among the people in the previous dynasty, Zeng Fan was undoubtedly the youngest.

But for some, being young is a sin. Why? Why can such a person rise to prominence? Get everything that others can't get in their lifetimes?

So there was a situation where Zeng Fan was ostracized by the entire Hunan officials, and because he was sluggish, he didn't care about the changes, and those neutrals who wanted to be kindly reminded didn't have much to say, so that things would come to this situation.

An Yuan smiled, reached out and gently patted Zeng Fan's back. Zeng Fan saw that he had arrived at the door of the south study, calmed his mind, and followed the elders to salute and ask to see him.

Emperor Zhengyang has changed his clothes, but his face is still not good, since the autumn Emperor Zhengyang has been a little bad in the palace, Zeng Fan persuaded him to return to the capital, and he was recuperated by the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital every day, but Emperor Zhengyang is old after all, and some things can't be let go, and the body is rapidly aging under visible circumstances.

A group of six people knelt down to the old man to say goodbye, and Emperor Zhengyang didn't raise his head, so he asked them to get up, and said indifferently and gave them a seat. These are all pavilion elders, and the south study is deliberating, of course, there is a seat, otherwise, if they really stand up and discuss, this group of old men will not be able to stand it.

And Zeng Fan sat on the side of the desk, that was his special seat, and there was also a Hanlin Academy editor under him, he was Zeng Fan's assistant, Zeng Fan did not participate in the government, he was only responsible for helping Emperor Zhengyang sort out the documents and draft the will. This is the work he has been doing since he was compiling, even now he is a scholar, and Emperor Zhengyang has no shortage of editing here, but Emperor Zhengyang feels that Zeng Fan has done what he wants best, so it has become this situation now. Zeng Fan's officials were promoted, and the editors were also on duty as usual, but there were some differences in the middle.

"Your Majesty, the fourth prince, and the sixth prince are here." Qin Gao, the chief eunuch, came in to report.

"Scream!" Emperor Zhengyang still didn't look up, just shouted.

Soon a twenty-year-old boy of seventeen or eighteen came in in the robe of a dragon and bowed down to the ground to say goodbye.

"From now on, you'll be listening. Zicheng, look back and compare how much they listened. Emperor Zhengyang finally raised his head and said to Zeng Fan below.

"Yes!" Zeng Fan hurriedly got up and shook his hands, he knew Emperor Zhengyang, this was the time for the two princes to listen to the government.

The two princes were busy making polite gestures to the elders of the various pavilions, but the two of them stood behind Zeng Fan together, and they were also Zeng Fan's students. It's just that because they are princes, Zeng Fan also has to bow when he sees them.

Zeng Fan saluted the two of them rigorously, saw them standing, glanced back at Emperor Zhengyang, thought about it, and looked at Qin Gao, "Father-in-law Qin, please prepare tables, chairs, pens and ink for the two princes."

He couldn't ask Emperor Zhengyang to let them sit down, this kind of obviously transgressive behavior, he didn't do it, but the prince was standing, he was sitting, wasn't he wronged and offended? Please pen and ink on the table and chair, with yourself, listen to their discussions, and make some small records, which achieves the purpose of listening to politics, and it is also a good memory, it is better to have a bad pen, and it is much better to write down a time than to stand there and listen stupidly. Mainly, you're standing there, and who knows if you're listening. Notes can't be faked.

Emperor Zhengyang smiled and pointed at Zeng Fan at An Yuan, "Your father told me back then that he was annoyed with this kid." Now I annoy him, too! ”

"Zicheng is a sincere person, although his father annoys him for being rigorous, he appreciates him the most." An Yuan was so funny that he got up and laughed.
