Pang Tianshou came to report that Wang Fuzhi and Master Hongzhi came here to visit the door, the other garden and the Wang family are just a wall apart, and the Wang family mansion is said to be the Wang family, but in addition to Qianqian and Wang Fuzhi and his wife, the rest are all members of the Heaven and Earth Society.

Master Hongzhi is also one of the initiators of the Heaven and Earth Society, and he has also become Tianlang's neighbor, and over time, the relationship between Tianlang and Wang Fuzhi, Master Hongzhi and others has become closer and closer, and the Hongru next door often comes to visit the door.

When sitting down to chat, Tianlang first mentioned that Wang Fuzhi could enter the court as an official like Jinbao, and Wang Fuzhi never gave Tianlang a positive answer because the time for the establishment of the Heaven and Earth Society was too short and many things needed to be taken care of.

Tianlang, of course, is not in a hurry, even if Wang Fuzhi is now an official in the court, he can at most start from a five-grade official, after all, his resume still has a hard injury, he is not a jinshi background, but just a person, a five-grade official already does not know how many upright courtiers will be provoked.

It's not that Wang Fuzhi's knowledge is not enough to take the Jinshi, but the year he entered Beijing to take the exam, it was the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, which coincided with the period when King Chuang won the title and the Ming Dynasty was about to fall, and Wang Fuzhi's road to Beijing was blocked and occupied by the forces of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

Wang Fuzhi walked to Nanchang, because he couldn't pass at all, so he had no choice but to turn back halfway, and he missed it since then, and so far, Tianlang has not reopened the imperial examination, and Wang Fuzhi has no chance even if he wants to win a Jinshi background.

"The scar on my brother's face, I always wondered how it was caused, and I wanted to ask if it was because of the injury suffered from resisting Jiannu, but I never dared to take the liberty."

A few people were tasting tea, and the topics they chatted about were also very casual, in fact, Tianlang had long wanted to ask this question, Wang Fuzhi was such a handsome and elegant Confucian man, but there were scars on his face.

At this time, the two had already determined their in-law relationship, and it was nothing for Tianlang to ask this.

Wang Fuzhi couldn't help but fall into silence when he heard Tianlang's question, his expression could not hide a touch of sadness, and after a while, he raised his eyes slightly, sighed abruptly, and slowly said, "The injury on the grass people's face has happened in the sixteenth year of Chongzhen......

Seeing that Wang Fuzhi was silent again after saying half of his words, Tianlang asked: "Brother is the year he wants to take the entrance examination now, but the road is also blocked, and he returns halfway, right?" ”

"Exactly." Wang Fuzhi confirmed.

"My brother is the queen's brother, and naturally he is also my brother, I feel that you should not be a grass people, you can call yourself a foolish brother in front of me, I am afraid that in addition to my brother, there is no second person with this qualification."

"The grass people don't dare!"

"Well, that's what I'll call it, so that I can feel like I'm not talking to someone unrelated."

Seeing Tianlang's frank words, Wang Fuzhi thought about it, and felt that the marriage date of his sister and brother-in-law had been set, and it was okay for the emperor to be commensurate with his brother, so he no longer shirked it, thanked him, and continued.

"What happened in the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, for me, is not only a loss of the opportunity to further gain fame, I and my brother Wang Jiezhi went north to Beijing in November of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, to participate in the examination, but because Li Zicheng's army conquered Chengtian, Zhang Xianzhong's army captured Qishui, and the road to the north was blocked, these things should have been known to the saint."

Tianlang also nodded, casually picked up the folding fan and played the wind, listening to Wang Fuzhi's words.

"But after my brother and I returned to my hometown, Zhang Xianzhong's team continued to go south in October of that year and conquered Hengzhou, and Ai Nengqi, one of his four adopted sons, threatened to recruit local talents everywhere from Changsha to Hengzhou, but how many people in Hunan and Chu literati were willing to be with Zhang Xianzhong, the murderous demon king? Seeing that he couldn't recruit local talents, Ai Nengqi began to forcibly arrest people, and his father was unfortunately among them. ”

The corners of Tianlang's mouth twitched, and he asked with hatred: "I guess that it is not only Ling Zun who Ai Nengqi wants to recruit, but also you, brother, right?" ”

Wang Fuzhi nodded, "That's true, so I stabbed myself in the face, broke my arm, and went to see Ai Nengqi with a disability, saying that I couldn't do anything for him. ”

Then Wang Fuzhi looked stunned again, and sighed, "Hey, I never thought that although my Wang Ernong could save his father by self-harm, Da Ming could not save the country through self-harm between the rebel army and the official army."

Only half a year later, Emperor Chongzhen of Simiao set himself up on the coal mountain, and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for three hundred years dissipated into a wisp of smoke and dust from that moment. And the Ming Dynasty that the Holy Lord took over, almost everything has to start all over again, but if you want to start all over again, where is it so easy? ”

Tianlang knew that there was something in Wang Fuzhi's words, and wanted to lure himself into his topic, and then he euphemistically criticized himself and Qianqian's governance policy, perhaps this is also the reason why Wang Fuzhi was reluctant to agree to enter the court as an official, and he was really not satisfied with the nonsense of his brother-in-law and sister.

However, Tianlang obviously didn't want to have any disputes with Wang Fuzhi when he hadn't agreed to be an official in the court, and he and Qianqian had already made plans for the next step of governance, and they didn't need others' guidance.

They just need a more secure executor, they need to support their cronies among the ministers and expand their power, Wang Fuzhi is undoubtedly one of the best candidates in terms of prestige or ability.

So he just changed the topic, and pretended to be inwardly and said: "Zhang Xianzhong and his subordinates are really harmful, and his godson Sun Kewang actually chose to lead troops into Guangxi at the same time when Jierharang invaded the south, trying to blackmail. Just like Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng stumbled each other back then, they really can't be friends! ”

Master Hongzhi closed his eyes and was silent, and Wang Fuzhi was silent, although he was thinking about this question in his heart: "Are the generals of the Great Western Army just unable to be friends?" Li Dingguo, who was also one of the four adopted sons, killed He Tengjiao, but the people of Guilin and even the Ming Dynasty were still praising the achievements of his two famous kings. Isn't all this what the emperor himself wants to see? ”

"Everything will have to wait until the battle between Qin Yiming and Sun Kewang is over, and the dust will settle." Tianlang said as if asking himself: "Although Li Dingguo is not a good friend, he is like a fierce horse that is difficult to tame, but once tamed, he must be a good horse."

The relationship between the four adopted sons was not harmonious, and the relationship between Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu was slightly better, but Qin Yiming pursued Sun Kewang, and Li Dingguo did not show any abnormality, and he didn't even say a word of intercession for Sun Kewang by my side.

Liu Wenxiu is even more interesting, the old general Qin led the imperial camp to catch up with Sun Kewang in the area of Guangnan Mansion, do you know why he was caught up so quickly? Because Liu Wenxiu occupied Guangnan Mansion and did not let Sun Kewang enter the city, hehehe. Tianlang laughed out loud as he spoke, feeling that the infighting between Sun Kewang and Liu Wenxiu was indeed very interesting.
