The Prime Minister's Mansion covers an extremely wide area, and it can be regarded as luxurious in Beijing, where every inch of land is valuable. In the front and back of the house, it is time for dinner, the lantern is held in the house, the corridor is still full of people, from time to time there are officials dressed in green and green clothes come forward to make a noise, the white-robed boy returns the salute with a smile one by one, talks a few words, responds decently, and the talker is like a spring breeze.

There was a deliberately amplified whisper behind him, "You Cheng Gongzi is becoming more and more handsome, and the jade tree is in the wind, so it is really worthy of being Webster's Zhilan Yushu." ”

"Youcheng Gongzi is going to participate in the examination this year, and he will be able to win the championship and win the champion. I heard that the long live lord has asked the son several times. ”

"There are people in Wei Xiang's follow-up, the young phoenix is clear and the old phoenix is envious."

As the eldest grandson of Wei Xiang, Wei Youcheng has been regarded as the successor of the family since birth, and every word and deed and every move has been taught. Wei Youcheng hung a signature gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, and went all the way forward, polite and courteous to meet people, and a humble gentleman was as gentle as jade.

Walking along the corridor to the East Academy, Wei Youcheng knew that his grandfather would probably be in the East Academy at this time. The East Academy is a quadrangle, surrounded by the main room, the wing room and the inverted seat, the main room is five, it is the place where Xiangguo Wei Yishen reads, sees guests and rests, the courtyard is paved with stones, and the northwest door is opened to communicate with the front of the house.

Before entering the door, he hurriedly walked out of Steward Lin from the courtyard, and said with a smile when he saw Wei Youcheng: "Young master, you are back, Xiangye has asked twice, hurry up, I am waiting for you to eat." ”

Wei Youcheng's pace quickened, into Yangzhixuan, this plaque is written by Emperor Xuan, and there is a couplet of the imperial pen hanging on the pillar next to it, "The arbor is thick and lush in spring, and the yellow flowers are fragrant in autumn." How can there be a royal pen in the idler's house, and the royal pen of the kings of the past dynasties in the Yangzhixuan is not less than ten, and the top of the hall is the "Qinghan Hall" of today's handwriting.

A sixty-year-old man was reading a book under the candle, when he heard the sound of footsteps, his face was ruddy and sparkling, his gray hair was combed neatly, and he pinned it with a hosta. Wei Youcheng stepped forward to salute and said, "My grandson has seen my grandfather. ”

The old man put the book on the table and said with a gentle smile: "Cheng'er, today's Fengshan gathering is happy, what interesting things do you have to tell grandpa?" Wei Youcheng just wanted to answer, but the old man waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, eat first, let's talk while eating, grandpa is a little hungry." ”

A hint of emotion flashed in Wei Youcheng's eyes, and he knew that it was his grandfather who was afraid that he would be hungry. The servant set the meal, which was very ordinary, four dishes and one soup: stir-fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, stir-fried shrimp, leeks, toon stir-fry, plus a large bowl of mushroom stewed chicken soup.

The old man ate very little, kept making dishes for Wei You, watching his grandson eat sweetly, the old man was even happier, and Wei Yishen, the prime minister of the ruling and opposition parties, was just a grandfather who licked calves at this time. Seeing that his grandson drank a bowl of soup after eating, Wei Yi asked with deep concern, "Cheng'er is full?" It's been a busy day today, and there must be no good food on the top of Fengshan Mountain, eat more? ”

After burping and not pretending in front of his grandfather, Wei Youcheng regained the liveliness of a young man. The servants packed up the dishes and chopsticks, made tea and retreated, and only the grandparents and grandchildren were left in the house. While drinking tea, Wei Youcheng recounted what happened today, Wei Yishen listened very carefully, and interjected from time to time, and the grandparents and grandchildren laughed heartily from time to time.

"Tea is just a cliché, not much new." Wei Youcheng commented lightly, his face showed condescending arrogance, Wei Yishen looked at his grandson's confident face, his heart was full of pride, my family has a successor, and I can ensure a hundred years of health.

Emperor Wei Yishen served as prime minister in his later years, and it has been thirteen years since then. The position of prime minister is high and powerful, but it is also full of risks. Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, when today's son is anxious for quick success and quick profit, he is very dissatisfied with his balance and stability, and his heart of transposition has been revealed several times; Hundreds of officials stared at the phase, and they didn't dare to make mistakes in their words and deeds, so in recent years, they have been walking on thin ice and dare not be careless.

Fortunately, Cheng'er competed, and at the age of sixteen, a "Kyoto Fu" became famous in the capital, and Yongchang was expensive for it. At that time, not long after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he was overjoyed when he heard that it was his grandson, and he specially decreed that Cheng'er was Xuande Lang.

Under his own personal teaching, Cheng'er is a person, Wenhua and talent are the best choice, this year will try to go to the department, plus Cheng'er and Princess Anshou fell in love, the princess will be in the year of the year, Cheng'er can be the champion of high school this year, and he will ask the Son of Heaven with his old face. has his own help attached in the back, and it is unknown that there will be another prime minister in my Wei family more than ten years later.

“…… Dezhou Jiang Anyi really has outstanding poetry, and Shen Guogong was also moved by him. "Will be at the top of the mountain, a glance at the mountains", good spirit, but unfortunately there are many people in the distant building, otherwise this person can be a good friend. ”

Wei Yishen was slightly distracted, and was pulled back to his senses by the poem read by his grandson, and asked in surprise: "Jiang Anyi?" Who is this, and is this poem written by him in the Wangyuan Tower? Did you just say that Shen Guogong appreciates him very much? "The grandson is going to take the exam, Wei Yishen naturally knows something about the world's famous scholars, but this Jiang Anyi has never heard of it.

Seeing that his grandfather was very interested in Jiang Anyi, Wei Youcheng enthusiastically said Jiang Anyi's "tea poem", the two sentences he made when he climbed the stairs, and the last "Why don't men take Wu hooks". Wei Yishen remained silent and said with a smile: "It's not early, Cheng'er, you go to your father's place to say goodbye, and rest early after a tired day." Grandpa has to go to court early tomorrow, and he wants to rest. ”

Wei Youcheng stood up, bowed respectfully to his grandfather, and turned to leave.

The smile on Wei Yishen's face gradually converged, and the two vertical lines on his cheeks were like knife carvings, and the amiable old man just now turned back into what Fan Yanzhong said, "Thick and strategic, able to judge big things". Wei Yishen stood up and walked a few words in the room with his hands behind his back, and suddenly said to himself: "If you are a scholar and a marquis, it is a good sentence." Young people are ambitious, but even if these ten thousand families are ten thousand bones, they may not be able to get it. ”

Wang Keming sent Princess Anshou into the palace and galloped out of the imperial city with his subordinates, and the Shenguo Mansion was in Yong'an Fang, near Yanping Gate, far away from the inner city of the imperial city. The horse's hooves were urgent, and the big guns behind them were raised high by the wind, like a crimson flag.

It wasn't until Wang Keming stopped his horse in front of Yong'an Fangfang, and the guards behind him caught up, and the bearded man led by him smiled and said: "Big brother, I haven't seen you on the street for a long time, and this wild run reminds me of you back then." ”

Wang Keming said with a smile: "Today I was aroused by Jiang Anyi, and I couldn't help but get mad as a teenager, but I didn't let go of this horseback riding kung fu." Third child, you are far worse than back then, and your belly is about to bulge. ”

The bearded man hurriedly said: "My Zhao Wei's kung fu has not been put down, I still have the turn to move the machete, and I can open the five-stone big bow, last time I hunted I shot a tiger with an arrow, big brother, you forgot." ”

The evening breeze brought coolness, blowing the lanterns hanging high on both sides of the street for a while, Wang Keming suddenly became surprised, and sighed: "Third brother, the past is unbearable, the past has become a thing of the past, you can follow me in the future and enjoy your life." It's a pity that the second child died early, and he can't see today, and he didn't even have a root and a seedling left. By the way, last time I asked you to find his family, how did you find it, there are still people in his family, if there is one, ask them to send one to the house, and continue the second brother's incense. ”

The bearded man's mood also fell, and he said in a muffled voice: "I can't find it, the second brother also suffered a disaster at home, so he came to Beijing to live a mixed life, and I went to his hometown again last month, and it was already deserted." ”

Wang Keming was silent, and the group returned to the Shenguo Mansion without mentioning it.

The inner palace of the imperial city, the lights in the Qingning Palace are bright, Princess Anshou, who has changed back into women's clothes, is telling her biological mother the queen about what she has seen on Fengshan, the crown prince Shi Chongwei listened to it, looked at his sister who was four years older than him with a look of envy, and said sullenly: "Every time my uncle only takes you out to play, he never takes me there." ”

"You are the crown prince, the prince of the country, you have to follow the rules in everything you say and do, you will inherit the great cause in the future, and you can't think about playing." An Shou educated his younger brother with a straight face.

"Hahaha, my family Anshou has grown up, and I know that I don't want to be greedy for play, but I have a lot of fun, tell my father, what's interesting today?" With the words, Shi Fangzhen, the Son of Heaven, walked in, and everyone in the palace bowed down to the bright yellow dragon robe, saying "Long live".

"No courtesy", Shi Fangzhen stepped forward to help the queen, sat down in the middle, and pulled the queen to sit beside him. Looking at the eldest daughter with a coquettish smile on her face, Shi Fang was really in a good mood, and said angrily: "An Shou, you taught your younger brother a set, why can't you remember it?" ”

"Father, you have all remembered your teachings, but today Guozijian is gathering talents from all over the world in Fengshan, isn't the child going to see what talents are there for you?" An Shou obediently leaned on his father's side, kissing the authentic.

"Oh, what talent have you found?"

Princess Anshou immediately jumped up, and vividly slapped everyone in the building, how Jiang Anyi wrote poems, and finally her uncle stripped and sang again. Shi Fangzhen smiled: "Has this cousin of mine stripped his clothes?" Is this a reminder not to forget his deeds? Tomorrow, I will reward him with some fields of gold and silver, so that he can live happily all his life. ”

After hearing Jiang Anyi's "If you are a scholar and a marquis of ten thousand households", Shi Fangzhen smiled and said: "It seems that An Shou really found a talent for me this time, this person is arrogant and dry, but he is commendable, I want to see how he performs in Jinke." ”

Jiang Anyi didn't know that he had entered the emperor's dragon eye through that young man, and he was pulled by Lin Yizhen and others to drink happily in the restaurant. This time, Fengshan Yaju Jiang Anyi was in the limelight, and Lin Yizhen and Liu Yushan, who were friends, were happy for Jiang Anyi. It is a happy thing to meet in a foreign country, and when two happy things are together, it is natural to have a few drinks.

Jiang Anyi drank too much, and even Zhang Zhicheng, Fan Shiben and Yu Qinghuan drank too much. After drinking until the day of the Dingjian Festival, the four of them staggered back to Anrenfang, Yu Qingyun returned to the house without saying anything, Jiang Anyi and the other three supported each other and stumbled back to the inn.

Hearing the sound, Liu Yuzhu came out with a stone, and smelled a smell of wine from afar. Seeing that the three of them couldn't stand steadily, Liu Yuzhu hurriedly stepped forward to support her brother and complained, "Why do you drink so much wine?" What should I do if something happens? ”

Shi stood between Jiang Anyi and Fan Shiben, and struggled to help the two of them back to the room. Putting the two of them on their seats, the stone wiped the sweat, and said, "Jiang Gongzi, someone sent you a gift this evening, and left a letter, I will give it to you." ”

Who gave me a gift, Jiang Anyi picked up the letter strangely, a faint fragrance came into his nose, Jiang Anyi's spirits were lifted, the alcohol subsided a lot, and he hurriedly tore open the letter, secretly saying that it was Xinfei?
