It was the first month of the year, and the weather was cold, so such a night was suitable for sleeping until dark, but Yan Chengjin was a person who was used to morning exercises, so how could he sleep.

In addition to running laps in the garden of the house, he also shoots arrows.

Early this morning, someone from the Yan Mansion came to visit, and the house manager saw that it was Wang Yue, the chief of the three sides, and hurriedly opened the door for him.

When walking through the courtyard, Wang Yue found a scholar shooting arrows in the corner of the courtyard, and the housekeeper smiled: "That's my young master." ”

Wang Yue knew that Yan Kesong only had one son, so he must be him.

Seeing that he was practicing archery, he couldn't help but feel itchy, and said in a loud voice: "Archery, you should pull your chest wide enough, your left shoulder is facing the bull's-eye, your feet are shoulder-width apart, and the strength of your body does not deviate from any kick. ”

I saw the scholar's hand let go, and the arrow drove away quickly, and the arrow hit the bull's-eye.

Instantly slapped in the face.

Yan Chengjin looked at the person beside him.

Wang Yue's old face was a little unbearable: "The old man is good at shooting, and he is also good at swords." As he spoke, he picked up the three-stone bow that Yan Chengjin had not yet pulled, and hit the bull's-eye with an arrow.

This face was slightly more relaxed.

Yan Kesong said: "Chengjin, don't be rude, this is the governor of the five armies, Lord Wang!" ”

Wang Yue?

Wang Yue is a little thin, about the same height as his father, with the Confucian spirit of some scholars, which is seriously inconsistent with the image of a tall and mighty general in Yan Chengjin's mind.

"Which Wang Yue are you?"

"Which one else!" Wang Yue stroked his beard, a little proud: "The old man is the predecessor of the trilateral general system, Wang Yue!" ”

Yan Chengjin took a step back, it stands to reason that Wang Yue's punishment has come down, and he is not afraid that he will be implicated if he contacts him, but it will ruin his reputation after all, right?

Wang Yue pulled out a sword from his waist, and regretted a little: "The old man is here to send the sword today, this green steel sword has followed the old man for many years, and the Tatars have seen it, so they retreated, and now in Beijing, I am afraid that it will not be used, so I will give it to the virtuous brother!" ”

This is the green steel sword that Wang Yue gave to Wang Yangming before his death by his son Wang Chun before his death?

Blowing hair and breaking hair, sharpening iron like clay.

Yan Kesong thought that this was precious, in the military tent, Wang Yue never let it be an arm's length away from his body, "Brother Shichang regards him as a wife and a concubine, how can he give it away, what talent does the foolish brother have, and he is also worthy of using this sword, Brother Shichang should take it back." ”

Sure enough, the dog still can't change eating.

The Tatars have always liked to invade the Hetao, so the Hetao is the most important of the nine sides, and the imperial court will send the most effective generals to defend it.

Dad is the defender of the Hetao, and this time he has a bright future.

Wang Yue knew that his father was going to be reused, so he came to send his heart.

"It turns out that this sword is so valuable, and the father can't accept it, so Lord Wang should take it back." Yan Chengjin simply pushed it back into the sheath.

Wang Yue said angrily: "What kind of person is your father and son as an old man, the old man just likes to give gifts, how can he be a greedy return!" ”

"Where did Lord Wang think, Lord Wang is in a high position, how could his father and students not know?" Yan Chengjin Road.

Wang Yue stopped doing it, and said angrily: "From the beginning of entering the door, I called your father a virtuous brother, and your father called me Brother Shichang, but you called me Lord Wang one by one, is there such a messy generation?" ”

“？？？” Yan Chengjin was stunned.

After returning to Beijing, Wang Yue found that Yan Kesong's reputation in the capital was far more terrifying than what he had heard.

The most important thing is that Yan Kesong has an innocent background, comes from a poor family, and has never had a dirty act of hiding dirt and dirt in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years.

Wang Yue was eager for the Tatars to invade so that he could return to the border.

But it can't be.

Not for five years.

Qinggang Sword stays by his side, it is better to send Yan Kesong, this is to show Emperor Hongzhi that he is dedicated to the country and exerts all his determination, even if it is regarded as a sword for his wife and concubine!

Wang Yue said: "The virtuous brother is a civilian official, only by one battle to become the deputy chief soldier of Ningxia, and the border brothers have no fateful friendship, this time again, there is no foolish brother in the camp to suppress, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, with this green steel sword, see the sword as if you see people, the virtuous brother will be much more convenient in the army." ”

The soldiers on the side plugs are all brought out by Wang Yue, and Yan Kesong wants to command them like his right-hand man, I'm afraid it's a little difficult.

Yan Kesong also knew the difficulties, so he didn't postpone it: "Brother, if you don't dare to resign, then thank Brother Shichang." ”

As soon as the New Year is over, although the snow on the ground has not yet melted, there are some signs of spring and March.

Yan Kesong is going to return to Ningxia to the border, before leaving, he was ashamed of Yan Chengjin and said: "Last time in autumn, my father was obsessed with books, and he didn't give you any guidance. ”

The title of the gold list is the three happy events in life.

He should have supervised from the side, but how many parents in the world can really do it?

With military affairs in his hands, Yan Kesong had to leave.

However, Yan Chengjin had already brushed Yan Kesong's test questions before the autumn season, but his father didn't know it.

What else could Yan Chengjin say, he could only watch his father and the house steward step onto the war horse and return to the border of Ningxia Mansion.

The twelfth year of Hongzhi is the heyday of the Hongzhi Dynasty, and it is also the year that is truly known as the prosperity of Hongzhi.

The people of the capital seem to have endless money in their hands, the New Year has passed, the desire to purchase is not reduced, the teahouses and restaurants are often full, and Wang Busui has sent more and more silver.

Of course, a large part of the reason is because Cheng Minzheng doesn't take a penny, and Yan Chengjin only gives Wang Bu 20% of the year, and 80% is his own.

The novel culture has risen strongly, the book market is thriving, and I heard that several classics have also broken out in Jiangnan, but it is still a lot worse than the prestige of Fox Zhai.

The situation of a hundred schools of thought contending and a hundred boats contending is already in front of us.

Is this the prosperity of the literary world, and what is the manifestation of cultural prosperity?

No one dares to judge easily.

In the Forbidden City,

After discussing state affairs on this day, Emperor Hongzhi cared about the people of the capital, "I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, and the princes have something new in the near future, tell me about it?" ”

Liu Jian has a straight temperament, and he can't hide what he has to say, so he said: "There is really something to report to the saint, and there is one more person in the capital who seems to welcome the guest pine, this person has a very high reputation, and is regarded as a master by the new faction. ”

Emperor Hongzhi smiled, and suddenly became interested: "Oh, who is this person?" ”

Li Dongyang said uncertainly: "That person's payment is for the warmer person, but, between the lines, the minister always feels that it is quite the style of Cheng Minzheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Etiquette." ”

Emperor Hongzhi said firmly: "It can't be him, he is arrogant, he created poetry and poetry, how can he turn against him?" ”

Li Dongyang and the three of them nodded, feeling that it made sense, Cheng Minzheng was unique in Beijing, and his heart was quite high, who didn't know.

But who would it be if it wasn't Cheng Minzheng?

………………

Cheng Fu,

Cheng Minzheng got up early in the morning and kept pinching walnuts, he was just famous before, and now he is called a pen fairy, so how can he bear it.

"These people are so boring, huh!"

I don't know what he said, Cheng Zhitang thought that his father was jealous of the reputation of the warm Taoist, looked at the broken walnuts, and said worriedly: "Dad today, but his hands are uncomfortable?" ”

Cheng Minzheng didn't seem to hear it, and the old man couldn't help it.

I can't wait to go to Dongshi to shout at this moment, and the person who stays warm is the old man!

But Yan Chengjin's previous warning to him quietly surfaced in his heart.

I didn't expect that the retreat was so painful and difficult, and after thinking about it, I changed into a brand new Confucian dress and went straight to the Yan Mansion.
