Seventy-six years old, which is not a high life expectancy in later generations, but in the Ming Dynasty, more than 90% of people did not live to this age.

Leaning on the Taishi chair, Yan Song looked up slightly at Qian Yuan, who was slowly coming, the winter sun brought a trace of warmth to the gloomy study, and also made the old spots on the old man's face undoubtedly revealed.

Yan Song's first impression of Qian Yuan was that he was old, he was really too old, it was never an exaggeration to say that he was about to die, Qian Yuan couldn't imagine that this old man could suppress Xu Jie for several years...... I have the impression that Yan Song will not be dismissed until four or five years later, and it will take several years before he dies in misery.

"Huating Qian Yuan pays a visit to Yuanfu." Qian Yuan saluted in an unreasonable way.

Yan Song didn't like Zhonghui to open his eyes, and his eyes showed a fine light...... He just squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the young man in front of him who had been famous for a long time, but he had met for the first time.

He is tall, his voice is clear, his eyebrows are like flying, his sideburns are like swords, and his gentle and quiet smile carries a confidence that seems to know everything.

After an invisible sigh, Yan Song muttered, "You look so handsome." ”

Qian Yuan is Spartan...... The first sentence of the cabinet chief assistant above 10,000 people under the Ming Dynasty praised me for being handsome?

Is this handsome to the center?

"Come closer." Yan Song beckoned Qian Yuan to approach, and said with a chuckle: "Even if the East Building is a junior in the middle of the year, it can only be Jiuqing at most, and it will never be included in the pavilion." ”

The corners of Qian Yuan's mouth twitched, you always scolded your son for being ugly?

"Anyone who enters the cabinet is all dignified." A hint of cunning flashed in Yan Song's eyes, "Back then, I was able to overwhelm everyone in one fell swoop and be pulled out by His Majesty, but it didn't just rely on the old man's flattery. ”

Indeed, although he is old, it can be seen that Yan Song's appearance is much stronger than Yan Shifan.

Qian Yuan didn't say anything, only complained in his heart...... You didn't just scold your son for being ugly, but you also brought your daughter-in-law with you!

"So, it's good to be handsome." Yan Song supported and wanted to get up, "Even if you are a third-class jinshi, it is easier to enter the six departments and the Metropolitan Procuratorate as a branch and Taoist official." ”

Qian Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and helped him, "Xie Yuanfu instructed." ”

"What is Old Man Xie doing...... That's your luck. ”

Yan Song slowly paced to the window, stretching out his hand to try to catch the sunlight passing through the window, "The East Building is here, and the old man ......is gone."

Yan Song turned sideways slightly, with a hint of helplessness on his face, "Zhancai, how many people can be left in the Yan Mansion at that time?" ”

"Motosuke is too worried." Qian Yuan had a gentle smile on his face, "Your Majesty treats Yuanfu kindly, and he will inevitably ......"

"You know what the old man is talking about." Yan Song shook his head and interrupted.

Qian Yuan did know what Yan Song was worried about, Yan Dang's reputation was too stinky, there were too many immoral things, and too many officials were driven away...... No matter who is in power, it is almost inevitable to exchange Yan Song and Yan Shifan for fame.

He Shen of the Qing Dynasty is a typical example, killing him can earn silver and prestige...... There will be countless people rushing to do this kind of thing.

However, Qian Yuan also analyzed from just a few sentences that Yan Song was still very confident in Emperor Jiajing, and he was worried about the liquidation of King Yu after he ascended the throne.

I have to say that there are many stupid people in this world, but there are no stupid people who can climb to a high position, maybe others are confused by the fire in front of them, but at least Yan Song is very sober, similar to Zhao Wenhua.

But Yan Song still miscalculated, he didn't expect Xu Jie's hatred for him so deeply, his only son was beheaded, his grandsons were exiled, and he was alone in the tomb, and he was even buried without a coffin.

Qian Yuan's eyes were mixed with complicated emotions when he looked at this old man, Yan Song is a famous traitor who can be compared with Qin Hui in history, and he is so evaluated in the history books, there is no other talent, and he is the only one who is flattering and stealing power.

But in the eyes of the traverser Qian Yuan, it is difficult to say, at least Xu Jie's is no better than Yan Song.

Xia Yan's death was a political struggle in the final analysis, and if he was replaced by Xu Jie, the result was similar.

It is not very likely to accept bribes and sell officials, the positions of authority in the court are basically controlled by Emperor Jiajing, and the five officials and below are all within the power of the officials and heavenly officials, and Li Mo, who has twice served as the secretary of the ministry, is the standard-bearer against Yan Song.

It is difficult for Qian Yuan to judge whether Yan Song knows people and makes good use of them, but at least Hu Zongxian's ascension comes from Yan Song's support, and this alone, Yan Song is not just passing and failing.

In Qian Yuan's view, Yan Song's biggest culpit is to occupy the pit and not.

Now the Ming Dynasty is already suffering from internal and external troubles, and many officials with the spirit of hard work and ability are on standby, the most typical ones are Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and Qian Yuan's uncle Qian Zheng.

They all desperately hope to change the unbearable situation of the Ming Dynasty through their own efforts, but Yan Song has no choice but to occupy the position and not move the nest, and a large number of Yan Party officials surround Yan Song and Yan Shifan to control the government.

After not getting a response from Qian Yuan for a long time, Yan Song was a little disappointed, he turned around and slowly sat back in his chair, and after hesitating for a moment, he said softly: "Shu Jishi." ”

In addition to being admitted to the first grade, Shu Jishi is the best choice, and it is also the only way to enter the Hanlin Academy, Yan Song's conditions are not ungenerous, but this is not in Qian Yuan's plan.

Qian Yuan raised his eyebrows, "The juniors don't have such talents, but please ask Yuan Fu to command." ”

Yan Song's dark eyes looked directly at Qian Yuan, and he said in a low voice after a long time: "The fourth son of the East Building, you must always leave a bloodline." ”

"Huh." Qian Yuan smiled helplessly, "Yuanfu is too pessimistic, why is this?" ”

"It's not nice to say, even if it comes to this, Yuanfu looks up to the younger generation too much......"

"When Yuan Fu was a scholar, Qian may not have been a jinshi, and even if he was a jinshi, he was only a small body."

Yan Song listened to Qian Yuan quietly, raised his hand tremblingly and waved, "Zhancai is too underestimated by himself." ”

Qian Yuan's brows couldn't help frowning, he didn't believe that he had such ability.

"Success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He." Yan Song muttered to himself in a low voice, sighed and said, "Zhan has just turned twenty this year, right?" ”

"Yes, after the New Year, I will be twenty years old." Qian Yuan had a faint guess in his heart.

"This is the matter." Yan Song picked up an inkstone from the table and handed it over, and said: "Gao Suqing is a person who has the courage to do things, and his talent is slightly unique. ”

This sentence is very easy to understand, Gao Gong is over forty years old this year, and Qian Yuan has just turned twenty years old, Gao Gong can hardly tolerate Chen Yiqin and others, who are also lecturers in Yuwangfu, but he can tolerate Qian Yuan.

The guess in Qian Yuan's heart was confirmed, but there was another guess, whether this was Yan Song's judgment or the information Yan Song got from Emperor Jiajing.

Soon, Qian Yuan came to the conclusion that it should be Emperor Jiajing's leaky tone, otherwise Yan Song would not have made such a heavy bet.

I had this feeling when Qian Yuan was facing the saint before, and Emperor Jiajing mentioned twice in a regretful tone that Qian Yuan was too young...... The hidden meaning of this sentence is obvious, he can't use it, he can only leave it to the next emperor.

There are many reasons why Yan Song bets, Emperor Jiajing is already old, and in recent years, his body has gradually become unbearable after taking pills, but at the same time, he is also old, and he may not be able to survive after Emperor Jiajing, and his only son Yan Shifan is too rampant, and the future is almost predictable, and it is good to dismiss and return to his hometown.

Of course, Yan Song's choice is not only Qian Yuan, in the past two years, in addition to party disputes, his greatest strength has been spent on the marriage of his grandchildren.

The wife of Yan Hong, the eldest grandson of Enyang, is the great-grandson-in-law of Hu Tong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Yan Hong, the second grandson of Enyang, married the daughter of Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of Chengguo, and the granddaughter is married to Kong Shangxian, the 64th derivative prince.

The eldest grandson Yan Shaoqing and the granddaughter of Xu Guangzuo, the Duke of Dingguo, were married, and the second grandson Yan Shaoting and Jinyiwei commanded Lu Bing's eldest daughter to marry.

However, Yan Song put his greatest hope on Qian Yuan.

The reason is simple, Qian Yuan is the only one who can contact Yuwang.

For this reason, Yan Song's meeting gift today made Qian Yuan smack.

The small pale green inkstone is warm and condensed, and there are shining silver stars on the ink pool, which makes people happy at first sight.

"This is Tianyan." Qian Zheng can also be regarded as well-read and strong, "Su Dongpo's Tianyan." ”

Qian Yuan suddenly realized, and immediately remembered the famous "Tianshui Iceberg Record" with as many as 60,000 words in history, and it is said that Tianyan is among them.

Putting Tianyan in his sleeve, Qian Yuan didn't see Qian Zheng's envious eyes that he wanted to grab it, he only pondered in his heart, Yan Song's ...... Isn't it a meat bun beating a dog?

Although Qian Yuan tried his best to move around among the various forces in the DPRK and China, he did not like this, which was not in line with his temperament.

If Xu Jie's going to beat the water dogs with sticks in the future, Qian Yuan's biggest possibility is to take advantage of the chaos to get some benefits for himself, and by the way, beat up the Yan Party with a few sticks to increase his reputation or clear the relationship.

I have to say that the impression that Qian Yuan has left on outsiders in the past two years is too positive, in this era, the reputation of unparalleled integrity and filial piety largely proves a person's character.

It's a pity that Qian Yuan has never been a righteous gentleman, he knows very well that if he wants to do something in this era to make the historical trajectory deviate somewhat, Yan Song will get out as soon as possible, which can play a positive role in promoting.
