Chapter Forty-Nine: But the Heart
..............
After a deep sigh, a righteous and awe-inspiring expression instantly surged into his face, and Zhang Mingyuan said painfully: "Grandpa, what do you think of Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang, as a person?" ”
The grandfather was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised, but his face eased a lot, and he stroked his long beard and said solemnly: "Hu Ruzhen is quite promising, and his temperament is slightly depreciated, in short, my father's evaluation of him is only four words: can understand the general situation." ”
Zhang Mingyuan was overjoyed, and his heart subverted his understanding of the old man, although the evaluation of Xu Pengju in the history books was 'Grandpa Straw Bag', but judging from the current situation, it is not particularly 'Straw Bag'. As a high-ranking person, he has been waiting for decades and immersed in officialdom for half his life, even if the overall concept of 'worrying about the world first, and enjoying the joy of the world after the world' is slightly missing, under the influence of his ears and eyes, his eyesight is still very powerful.
"Grandpa's eyes are discerning, and there is no one in the world who can beat you." Zhang Mingyuan was very sincere this time: "If you can enter the eyes of your grandfather, you will be congratulated by Lord Hu at the end." ”
The grandfather was happy, squinting his little eyes, deeply intoxicated by his own appreciation.......
Give a sunshine and a color to open a dyeing workshop, Zhang Mingyuan was a little speechless, and continued to lure: "Grandpa thinks that it is feasible for the southeast to resist the Japanese without Lord Hu Zongxian..........."
The grandfather opened his eyes at once, shot a dazzling essence, and said solemnly: "The rich township on the southeast coast has a lot of chores, and those who don't know the general situation can't do it?" ”
Zhang Mingyuan was overjoyed, but he still tried very carefully: "Grandpa, what is the most jealous thing of the saint today?" ”
The grandfather's expression was dazed, and he looked at Zhang Mingyuan with some incredulity.......
At this point, Zhang Mingyuan had to continue to fool, and said cautiously: "Does Grandpa still remember Wang Jiangjing's victory?" ”
Grandpa: ".........."
"After the arrival of Zhang Jing, the governor of Zhejiang, he mobilized the wolf soldiers of Guangxi to achieve a great victory in Wang Jiangjing, who fought against the Japanese, but was thought of as 'remembering the friendship of the Japanese compatriots, martyrdom did not happen, and missed the opportunity.'" Listen to the heavens, Lord Zhang Jing ........."
The grandfather finally showed a thoughtful expression, but the expression was ethereal enough.......
Zhang Mingyuan felt helpless about his father-in-law's behavior that seemed to have a sudden realization but was cautious in his words and deeds, to be honest, these rebellious remarks made today really did not match his identity, but the matter had come to this, he had to harden his heart and continue to do without hesitation.
"Grandpa, Lord Zhang is loyal and loyal, and he has won his first great victory since the war against the Japanese, but he still can't stand the villain's false accusations, so that he is in prison, doesn't this explain a very profound truth?"
Grandpa's ethereal eyes didn't make any waves.............
Is it the grandfather's unobtrusive personality that suppresses the neurons that suddenly realized? Or are you just pretending to be stupid? Anyway, Zhang Mingyuan was about to cry in a hurry, and he had to follow the temptation again.
From this, it can be seen that the most resentful thing in the saints today is the word 'tong'. According to this inference, if Wu Caozhi's affair is shaken out, those imperial historians who rely on wind and words to eat will play back this excellent opportunity, and then I am afraid that the entire southeast coast will fall into endless bloody rain and bloody wind, will Lord Hu Zongxian be involved at that time? It is unknown whether it will affect the entire anti-Japanese cause! ”
After saying these rebellious words, Zhang Mingyuan felt as if his whole body had collapsed, and he collapsed softly in the chair...........
"Bold, do you doubt Hu Zongxian?" Grandpa is a little angry.
Zhang Mingyuan leaned back in his chair and didn't bother to get up...........
"I just suspect that the Overseers can't spit ivory out of their mouths."
"Oh!"
............. Silent.
After a long time, the grandfather was shocked, as if he had been injected with a dose of stimulant, sat up straight suddenly, his eyes were shining again, and he looked at Zhang Mingyuan approvingly, and only after a long time did he say lightly: "I didn't expect that your kid is also a person who knows a lot of things!" ”
There was no expected stormy criticism that was regarded as a big rebellious remark, Zhang Mingyuan was very happy to realize that his not very obsessive nonsense seemed to have successfully impressed his grandfather, and he also received a small compliment from him, which Zhang Mingyuan never dared to expect. Finally let go of the last worries, and the body that was almost collapsed slowly recovered.........
After being tortured to get the same comments as historical celebrities, Zhang Mingyuan felt that it was worth it, and he thought that he should express something, and it was not in vain for his grandfather's praise........
Supporting his body and slowly sitting up, Zhang Mingyuan said happily: "Grandpa's eyes are ........"
The grandfather didn't have the courage to interrupt him, and snorted coldly: "Whether you are a pearl or not, I don't count if I say it, and I will treat it to the world." ”
Zhang Mingyuan: "........."
This sentence sounds very awkward, especially from the mouth of the grandfather, it seems to have a deep derogatory behavior, and it is really difficult to correct the loopholes.
"Where is Wu Caozhi now? What are you going to do with it? "Grandpa seems to have remembered something.
Zhang Mingyuan's heart moved, and he said: "Wu Caozhi is now detained in a secret place, and the general will not dare to be arbitrary, and he will ask his grandfather to make it clear?" ”
The grandfather flicked his sleeves and sneered: "There are still things that you kid dare not specialize in?" poked a big hole and asked my father to wipe your ass, do you still have an old man in your eyes? ”
Zhang Mingyuan grinned: "Grandpa, you are a genius, and your heart for the country and the people is known to the world, how dare you ignore your existence?" ”
Grandpa's face softened slightly, and he fell into endless ethereal ...............
Zhang Mingyuan can understand his grandfather's mood at this time, this is indeed a tricky problem, if it is not handled well, it may affect his grandfather's noble path in the future, this is not a joke. It is not easy for the Duke of the Kingdom to pass on to this day, in case of loss, how will the old man face the ancestors of the Xu family in the future.
After sorting out his thoughts a little, Zhang Mingyuan hardened his head again: "Grandpa, the last general thinks that this Wu Caozhi may be of great use in the future, so it is better to be escorted to Nanjing by Grandpa for the time being, secretly detained, and ............ when the time is ripe."
The grandfather trembled, pointed at him and scolded: "You kid, don't you know the danger in this?" Let Bengong bear it, who can get Bengong out of the basket? ”
Zhang Mingyuan hurriedly said: "Grandpa, you can rest assured, only me, the Du family and his son, and Liu Dongbo, the magistrate, know about this matter, and the rest of us don't know anything, as long as we find a suitable reason and secretly escort it away, it can be seamless." ”
"What's more, when this matter is scheduled to be useful in the future, it will also be a great contribution to your grandfather." Zhang Mingyuan added one more sentence.
Zhang Mingyuan is gambling, and his heart is also dripping blood, for the grandfather who shoulders the duty of patrolling, this is a thing that has to be done, and he is not responsible. From this point of view, the quality education of the Daming noble team is indeed not good, where is the loyalty and responsibility? Where is the dedication to duty?
Silent..............
After a long time, the grandfather looked up to the sky and sighed, looked at the scenery outside the window and was stunned, and said lightly: "It's okay!" Who will make this father shoulder the responsibility? ”
Zhang Mingyuan was overjoyed, bowed his head and bowed: "Grandpa is mighty." ”
The grandfather nodded lightly: "It's not up to you to decide whether you are mighty or not, my father can also be regarded as sharing worries for the emperor and the court!" Then he stretched out his fist and demonstrated fiercely: "Remember, this matter must be kept secret, and it is not enough for outsiders." ”
Zhang Mingyuan nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice...........
...............
"What do you think of Wan'er?" The grandfather said coldly.
Zhang Mingyuan was stunned, sweating on his forehead: "Miss Xu is peerless and beautiful, virtuous and virtuous, ........."
The grandfather's face turned red, he knew his granddaughter's temperament very well, and the peerless beauty was reasonable, he could be proud of his granddaughter, but if he said that this 'virtuous lady' seemed to be a bit out of reality, making him embarrassed.
“.... Ahem, okay, then you tell the old man, what is the relationship between you and Wan'er? ”
This is not better than searching the intestines and scraping the stomach to come up with a few words of praise, just casually perfunctory, this is really difficult to answer. What about the relationship between the abused person and the abuser? I believe that my grandfather will definitely fight regardless of his image. A lady who is deeply educated by the feudal 'five from four virtues' is interpreted as a 'abuser', and she will not hesitate to whip you with the sole of her shoes in any big family, not to mention that this is the precious granddaughter of the Nanjing garrison country.
Zhang Mingyuan twitched his face until it was deformed, and said quietly: "Pure comradeship." ”
"Huh?" The grandfather glared at him angrily, and the faint official authority slowly froze in the air: "Purity? ”
“...... This ......" Zhang Mingyuan was stunned, as if he was not pure enough by his 'unintentional actions', and at this time it was like being in prison, unable to advance or retreat.
The grandfather continued to be earnest: "Do you want to marry Wan'er?" ”
Zhang Mingyuan's scalp tightened, and his whole body trembled: "Grandpa, little ........"
"Could it be that my Wan'er has insulted you?" Grandpa threatened.
"No, no, Miss is beautiful and fragrant, the country is beautiful, everyone is beautiful, and IKEA is ....."
"Okay, the old man's grandson and the old man know, there is no need for you to talk nonsense here." The grandfather panicked.
"I'll just ask you, do you want to or don't want to?"
Zhang Mingyuan: "........ This ......"
"Someone, all ........."
Poof!
Zhang Mingyuan knelt heavily in front of his grandfather, not thinking about it.......
"Yes."
"It's pretty much the same, be nice to Wan'er in the future, otherwise be careful of your dog's head." Grandpa threatened.
...........
After a long time, Zhang Mingyuan, who was frightened and undecided, decided to eliminate the doubts in his heart........
"I don't know why Grandpa loves the boy so much?"
The grandfather looked at the scenery outside the window, with an unforgettable look on his face, and a little pain, unable to wave his hand..........
"If you can't get married, who will you choose if you don't choose?"
The grandfather was alone and sobbed.......
Zhang Mingyuan: "..........."
"But remember, don't tell Wan'er about this, and talk about it when the time comes."
This ruthlessly cursed feudal society, in the previous life, a small 'artificial respiration' was at most regarded as 'rubbing oil', but in the later life, it inexplicably contributed to a major marriage event, is it joy or sorrow?
