Chapter 470: Father's Worries
This is Shao Hua worried that Xin Muyuan's words will bring danger to Shao Fushen.
Shao Hua is reluctant to get involved in politics and danger, which can be heard from Shao Fushen's name.
But......
Xin Muyuan believes that Shao Hua is not completely unwilling to deal with politics.
Yuanhua Restaurant, I'm afraid there has been a problem recently.
Before coming, Xin Muyuan specially investigated Shao Hua. It has been 20 years since he opened the restaurant, and he is cautious and low-key.
His son Shao Fushen is two years old literacy, five years old can recite the complete collection of poetry, eight years old is the famous prodigy of the imperial capital, Zhongyun, Que Fang old concubine, Zhong Shu Zi and so on at the age of six had personally come to the door in the hope that Shao Fu Fall can enter the Bird Fang Academy to study, and even in the imperial examination of that year specially opened a special channel for Shao Fu Fall, open the privilege to let only six years old or even a business Shao Fu Fall to participate in the scientific examination.
But something unexpected happened.
Shao Fuluo, who was given great hopes, was completely defeated in the imperial examination.
Don't say it's the top three, even the top 100 didn't go in.
Because of this incident, Shao Fushen's reputation as a prodigy was buried, and no one cared about Yuanhua Restaurant, and the voices of insults followed.
The major officials shook their heads and sighed, and no longer asked about the prodigy Yuanhua.
After two years, the reputation of Shao Fushen prodigy came out again, and the legend that had fallen into the dust was lifted again.
Xin Muyuan gave Shao Hua a gentle smile and said, "Boss Shao, I believe that you, who can teach such an excellent son, are definitely not ordinary things in the pool. ”
Shao Hua tilted his head slightly, the smile on his face did not decrease, and his gentle eyes stared at Xin Muyuan intently, and the cold hairs on Xin Muyuan's body stood up, and he was uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but want to avoid his sight.
But Xinmuyuan didn't.
She forcibly held back the discomfort of her body and looked directly into Shao Hua's eyes.
Finally, Shao Hua relieved his tone, his tone was much lighter, and said, "The two guest officers came to me for some bad things. ”
Xin Muyuan's heart breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I can't say how bad it is, I just have some guesses about you." ”
"Speculation about me?" Shao Hua was puzzled, "This guest officer, I'm just a very ordinary restaurant owner." ”
Xin Muyuan tilted his head and asked puzzledly: "If you just think of yourself as a very ordinary restaurant owner, why do you want to spread the reputation of your son and prodigy?" ”
Shao Hua shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about." Fu'er's reputation spread, just because I was too busy one day, so I asked Fu'er to help me look at the accounts. Here, a guest at dinner stumbled upon Fu'er's abilities, and the reputation of the prodigy spread. ”
Xin Muyuan didn't follow his words, but opened another topic, saying: "I checked the exam questions from two years ago, all of them are what your son is good at, I think Zhongyun or Zhongshuzi deliberately changed the test questions in order to include your son. But even so, the noble son still didn't get into the ......"
"Is there anything strange about that? Fu'er was only six years old at the time, and he was playful, and it was normal for him to be scared about something as serious as a scientific expedition. I explained these things back then! Shao Hua was already starting to get a little angry, his tone became cold, and he said, "If the two of you don't have anything else, let's leave first." Yuanhua Restaurant is about to open, so it will not be sent away. ”
Xin Muyuan got up and smiled at him, although Shao Hua stared at the texture on the table and did not look up at her, and said, "I am Xin Muyuan, the owner of Liying Shengxiang, and I also know that you need to seek some help now, and you have to throw out your son's name in order to attract some dignitaries and nobles who can see your intentions." ”
Shao Hua's pupils widened suddenly, his thin lips trembled slightly, and he repeated in a low voice: "The owner of the beautiful shadow ......"
Liying is fragrant, and in just two years, it quickly dominates the imperial capital, and even the Chamber of Commerce that dominates one side is powerless to shake. This year, there are even rumors that the owner is the imperial merchant who His Majesty ascended the throne two years ago.
The entire Imperial Capital City, I'm afraid that everyone knows about it, and everyone knows it......
Xin Muyuan did not stop, and before leaving, Xin Muyuan left him the last sentence in the gentlest tone: "If you change your mind, you will come to Liying Shengxiang to find me." If I'm not here, Qinglian Mozhu will entertain you personally. Although the two of them are actors, they are my people and can be trusted. ”
"If you believe me, I won't hurt you, let alone Shao Fushen."
Shao Hua's head drooped, his face surprised and complicated.
He was thinking, and he was struggling.
Xin Muyuan, a controversial person, can he be trusted.
Leaving his own people to protect Shao Hua's father and son in secret, Xin Muyuan left from Yuanhua Restaurant.
Xie Zhan asked her: "How can you be sure that Shao Hua threw out his son this time because he encountered a difficulty that he was unable to solve?" ”
Xin Muyuan shrugged his shoulders, glanced at him with disdain, and said, "It's a shame that you are still a talented man in the famous Emperor Capital, and you don't even understand this." Do you remember what Shao Hua's son was called? ”
"Shao Fushen, ah......" Xie Zhan said and understood.
It seems that this difficulty does not come from the business, but from his son.
Shao Hua's caution has reached the point of outrageousness.
Six-year-old Shao Fushen did not know that the workplace was sinister, Shao Hua protected Shao Fushen and strictly forbade him to play normally in the imperial examination, so as not to be included in the invigilation of Zhongyun.
Eight-year-old Shao Fusheng is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, famous classics, and knows the importance of official career to a man, Shao Hua can no longer suppress him, so he can only spread Shao Fushen's reputation and personally select people for him who can be relied on.
Xin Muyuan's identity as a merchant made Shao Hua look down on him, so he refused in every possible way. But the identity of the imperial merchant made him hesitate slightly.
For him, the career is precipitous, and although the identity of Xin Muyuan Imperial Merchant is weak, it can be regarded as gentle. Especially with her, he indirectly had some contact with the emperor, although the relationship with the Protector Mansion was not good, but the Protector was a person who cherished talents and loved talents, if he knew the existence of Shao Fuyuan, he would not like Xin Muyuan, and he would pay more attention to Shao Fuyuan.
This is also the reason why Shao Hua hesitated.
Xie Zhan said: "If I were Shao Hua, I would definitely not choose you." ”
Xin Muyuan blinked and said, "No, if you weren't Shao Hua, you wouldn't have chosen me." But if you were Shao Hua, you would definitely choose me. ”
"Why?" Xie Zhan was puzzled.
There are so many dignitaries and nobles who want to take Shao Fuyuan as their own, with Shao Fuyuan's ability and talent, they will be cherished even if they are brought to the prime minister, how can they choose Xin Muyuan, an ordinary businessman?
Xin Muyuan shook his head, with a faint mockery on the corner of his mouth, and said, "You still haven't understood the meaning of Shao Fushen's name." ”
The higher the position, the more dangerous it is, how could a person who is eager to engrave his caution on his son's name choose the prime minister?
