Chapter 187: Sewage
Yang Jing sneered, "In the Great Zhou Dynasty, only prostitutes, preservaries, subordinates, and their descendants were not allowed to take the imperial examination and donate to prisons, let alone say that there was no business status, not to mention Taizu and Gaozu, just say that how many adults in the court have shops in their homes, and how many relatives are famous salt merchants, they are just not talking about it behind their backs." ”
Ge Lun didn't even eat tea, "You also know that it's behind your back, everyone knows that you resigned from your post in the past, and now it's a lot of trouble when you accept the children of the merchant family......"
"In that case," Yang Jing said, "let the court punish my sins and see where my sins are." ”
What a hard temper, Glenn didn't know what to say, and sat down angrily.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Yang Jing was not in a hurry, so he asked the scholar to bring hot water and make tea by himself. Lord Ge is his classmate and friend, and what he said naturally makes some sense, but the imperial court suddenly remembered that he, a person who was idle and wild, went to the Guozijian, just like Yiting said, I'm afraid it's not so simple.
Sure enough, when Yiting said it, someone immediately pointed the finger at Shen Yuankun, a drooping child.
Yang Jing glanced at Ge Lun, "You wanted to let me come to Beijing a long time ago, and Zhu Yue also wrote to me three times and twice, asking me to enter Beijing no matter what, but now that I am here, you don't make it clear." ”
I heard that Zhu Yue was very sick, he just came to Beijing, who knew that Zhu Yue was speechless in Beijing, thinking about it like this, the people who were good friends back then either left or were seriously ill, and now there is only one Ge Lun who is too careful in doing things on weekdays and is unwilling to say a word. It was not easy to get words from Glenn's mouth, so he just pretended not to understand anything.
Ge Lun really got anxious, "What time is it now?" It's really just for you to be a national superintendent. Why are Zhu Yue and I so anxious, you have been away from Beijing for many years and lived in seclusion, is it true that you will no longer ask about the affairs of the court? ”
"The eldest prince has reached the age of going to school."
Yang Jing didn't interject and listened carefully to what Ge Lun said.
Ge Lun continued: "It's the official shortage of the Zhan Mansion, and the emperor still thinks about you, so he personally asked the old ministers of the Hanlin Academy and Zhu Yue, and Zhu Yue wrote to you to let you go to Beijing to discuss." I didn't expect you to arrive at Zhu Yue, but you were already so sick that you couldn't speak. ”
It turned out to be really the business of Zhan Shifu, what kind of place is Zhan Shifu, it is to train the prince to assist the East Palace. His most proud disciple once served in the Zhan Mansion, and he also discussed scriptures with the emperor.
The emperor said at the time that if there was an heir, he would definitely hand it over to Cao Bian.
Cao Bian is gone, and the emperor is still thinking about Cao Bian, the master.
So he can't shirk the appointment of Guozijian this time.
All of them were all said by Yi Ting.
Now that Ge Lun knows what the emperor means. Cui Yiting also guessed eight or nine points. Those outside who want to go to Zhan Shifu, and in the future, they can't stand by and watch.
Not only does he want the court to use him, but also to discredit his virtues, because he must choose a dignified person to assist the East Palace, he has been filial piety to his father for many years, and he has been a widower and a wife until now, the only thing he can take out to say is to communicate with the Shen family and teach Shen Yuankun, a businessman.
Yang Jing frowned. "In that case, you don't have to let me go to Zhan Shifu."
If only everything in the court was so simple.
Yang Jing and Ge Lun glanced at each other. "Those people can't influence the emperor, so they want me Yang Jing to be ruined, I'm afraid it's not enough, just use this incident to beat me and never turn over."
Ge Lun sighed, "It's good that you understand, now that you are walking on thin ice, not to mention that you can't be your idle cloud and wild crane, I'm afraid you will fall into the fate of Mencius Gui." ”
Meng Zigui was assigned to serve in the army, and he could not be pardoned.
……
Brother Kun waited for his subordinates to come back from Yang Jing's house.
After a while, the maid put the food box on the low table, and Brother Kun's face suddenly collapsed.
The gentleman refused to accept it.
Mrs. Shen Si was busy and said, "In the past, Mr. didn't accept gifts from our family, and we didn't send them over the same way. ”
Hearing his mother say this, Brother Kun looked at Shen with an expectant expression, "Auntie, can you make a box of snacks and send it to Mr. Yang Jing." ”
Mr. likes to eat his aunt's craft, and others don't know about it, but he, a student who eats and lives with him, knows it in his heart.
Shen nodded, "Okay, I'll do it myself tomorrow, and you can give it to Mr. Yang Jing." ”
It's not a matter of whether or not to accept gifts from the Shen family.
Wan Ning thought about it and met Cui Yiting in the courtyard.
Cui Yiting stood on the corridor, as if waiting for her, heard her footsteps, turned around, and smiled on his face.
Wan Ning stepped forward and saluted, raised her head and wanted to ask Mr. Yang Jing about it neatly, but heard Cui Yiting say: "This time, Mr. Yang is bound to go to Guozijian and will take office tomorrow." ”
Wan Ning nodded.
Cui Yiting continued: "Mr. Yang Jing has a disciple named Cao Bian, who is the emperor's favorite Zhan Shi Mansion Zhan Shi, and now the eldest prince has reached the age when he should study, but the Zhan Shi Mansion is still only served by officials of the Hanlin Academy. ”
Therefore, the imperial court did not want Mr. Yang Jing to go to Guozijian, but wanted Mr. Yang Jing to go to Zhan Shifu.
Wan Ning pursed her lips, "Then I'll tell my uncle and aunt to ask them not to go to Yang's house to deliver things again." ”
"I'm afraid it's too late," Cui Yiting said, "Outside the outside has already used Brother Kun and the Shen family as an excuse to say that Mr. Yang is moral, and before Mr. Yang goes to Guozijian, the officials of Guozijian have begun to despise Mr. Yang." ”
I'm afraid this is just the beginning.
No one will believe that Mr. Yang Jing's seclusion over the years is really not seeking fame and fortune, maybe everyone thinks that Mr. Yang joined the office at this time to cultivate obscurity, and enter the Zhan Mansion in one fell swoop in the future.
Cui Yiting looked at Wan Ning, "If there is any news outside, I will send it to the Shen family immediately, the two gentlemen invited by the family are not suitable for Brother Kun, don't look for a serious Confucian student." ”
Wan Ning remembered Brother Kun's eyebrows dancing when he talked about Cui Yiting's lecture.
In Cui Yiting's eyes, I'm afraid that those people are not as good as him.
"I know a Mr. Han, although he is not famous, he is not stubborn and pedantic."
Wan Ning nodded, the person introduced by Cui Yiting should be very good.
Wan Ning looked at Cui Yiting's translucent eyes, and remembered what Cui Yiting said about the night Cui Yiting bandaged him, and the person he said.
She knew it wasn't a joke.
Maybe it's a half-truth, but there must be someone in his heart.
Every time he looked at her, there was always something else mixed in his eyes, so that she couldn't understand it, and she didn't think to delve into it.
Everyone has their own secrets in their hearts.
What is Cui Yiting's secret?
She obviously thinks that his city is very deep, but whenever she is looked at by him, that feeling is so simple and sincere, if it covers the smile on his face and the joy in his eyes, the rest is a faint sourness.
She didn't know where the sourness that seemed to have been lost and regained came from.
Fang Cai's mother asked her about the Pei family in the house.
Mother Tong is also smiling.
She knew what Mrs. Pei meant, and Pei Minghui was also testing her carefully.
Pei Mingzhao is steady and responsible, although his actions are rigid, he is not so elusive, and it should not be difficult for such a person to respect him like a guest.
Cui Yiting is different.
Thankfully, she wasn't yet ready to choose her future husband.
……
Beijing is very lively, everyone is beaming with joy, there are still a few days before the New Year, and the various snacks and snacks made in the big kitchen have already made the family have a New Year's atmosphere.
Zhang's illness is also gradually improving, but most of the family's affairs still have to be taken care of by Wanning, and the old lady Yao has made a fuss a few times without letting Yao Yiwen change her mind, so she no longer bothered, and concentrates on how to make Yao Yizhi marry the eldest princess of Jianing better and faster.
The eldest princess of Jianing has not come to see the Zhang family since last time.
The Empress Dowager gave the eldest princess Jianing twenty red lanterns, which was already a sign of a happy event.
Jiang Jingyu became a frequent visitor to the Yao family, walking back and forth under the pretext of treating the Zhang family, so that Wanning also knew that the Jiang family had taken over the errand of dredging and managing the river.
The Jiang family asked people to come to see Aunt Jiang and Grandma Jiang several times.
Aunt Jiang and Grandma Jiang heard that they didn't even wear a cloak and went out, and the Jiang family became even more distressed when they saw it, and found a Chinese person to say that they wanted to take Aunt Jiang and Grandma out of Yao's house.
First, it is good for the Jiang family, and second, it is also good for Yao Yizhi.
After talking a few times, the Jiang family and Mrs. Yao were tense when they met, and they would make noise before they finished speaking.
Zhang's is a look that he will not interfere.
Yao Yiwen was used to sitting in Wanning's house for a while every night.
"I heard that Yang Jing no longer teaches Brother Kun under Shen Jingyuan?"
Hearing Yao Yiwen's words, Wan Ning said, "I don't know the details. ”
Her father already knew that she was involved in Brother Kun's study, but she didn't say it, she just didn't want to mention it to her father, and as usual, her father wouldn't ask again.
Unexpectedly, Yao Yiwen said again: "How is Brother Kun's book?" ”
How could my father suddenly care about Brother Kun.
Wan Ning looked over carefully, and didn't see any clues from his father's face, his father shouldn't have known that Brother Kun was his flesh and blood.
Wan Ning didn't speak, Yao Yiwen continued: "I heard from outsiders that Brother Kun doesn't read well, Yang Jing is interested in the Shen family's property, Yang Jing has hundreds of acres of land in Yangzhou, all of which were purchased by the Shen family. ”
Where is such a thing.
Wan Ning frowned slightly, and looked at Yao Yiwen sideways, "Father thinks the same way?" ”
Shen Jingyuan studied and he knew that people were not smart or stupid, if he had studied hard with his husband since he was a child, he would not be able to pass the exam.
Shen Jingyuan's son, even if he is a little clever, will not stand out too much.
Yao Yiwen shook his head, "People are terrible, persuade your uncle, there are many people in Beijing, it is better to go back to Yangzhou earlier, if Xixi is not easy to find, it is better to go to the clan to study." ”
Father, like people outside, looks down on Brother Kun like this.
What if his father knew that Brother Kun was his own flesh and blood?
