Text Chapter 52 Expectations

At this time, the people around also heard the news, and gathered around to inquire about the Oshi, who bowed his hand to Wei Yi slightly, apologized, and then began to tell the story with a fluttering eyebrow.

Not long after Yang Shiwei returned from Nan'anze Town, the people in the city didn't know much news, but when Wei Yi was waiting for the passenger carriage at the station, he found that the people around him were already telling about it.

The prince of Hou Mansion led the young tooth generals to ambush the most ferocious pirates, this thing is really a legendary story that is even more amazing than the legend of Zhiwei, and before dark, Wei Yi has already found that this matter is being discussed everywhere.

"Chen Yuyong's head is now hanging in the yamen of the Sentencing Envoy."

"Indeed, I walked from there and saw the head."

"You're not afraid?"

"What's so scary about this? This generation doesn't know how many people in Fujian have harmed, how many lives have been harmed, and how many wives have been separated. Honestly, I'll have to have a drink or two in a while to celebrate. ”

"This can be one of my own."

"Of course I'm going to go down there."

Many people were happy, no matter what the current situation of the Great Wei was, the people always longed for a peaceful and prosperous life, of which peace was still on top of abundance.

Qishan thieves have killed countless people, every person who dies is a family tragedy, over the years, Fujian Road has suffered from pirates taking turns to harass, there is no way to defend and curb, and now a giant has died, although it is not a thief like Chen Yutai, it is also a great joy worth rejoicing.

"Hou Shizi of Nan'an, I remember him."

"What a teenage hero!"

"It's still a big filial son, if you remember the back, he wrote it."

"I see, no wonder, filial piety is worthy of heroes, and heroes should be filial sons."

In the praise of everyone, Wei Yi felt his heart pounding, as if he was praising himself. The feelings of young friends are more sincere, and there are few impurities. It's not as complicated as the adult world, from teenagers to young people, in the past few years, Xu Zixian and Wei Yi and Xu Xingwei have had a deep relationship, and Wei Yi is sincerely happy for his friends.

After a while, the carriage came, Wei Yi quickly squeezed into the car, one station for two miles, each station for five cents, he went to the newspaper office less than four miles, or paid ten cents. For Wei Yi, this money is nothing, and it can be reimbursed, he sat on the carriage seat, and listened to people's discussions about Chen Yuyong's killing, as well as praise for Xu Zixian.

……

After arriving at the newspaper office, the lights were already in hand, and the inside and outside of the newspaper office were brightly lit, Wei Yi did not feel strange about this.

With so much news, if no one in the newspaper was working overtime to produce a special issue, the weekly newspaper would have been finished long ago.

"Wei Yanke, you're just in time." The editor-in-chief, Chen Jiangming, seemed to have been waiting at the door of the newspaper, and when he saw Wei Yi, he shouted, which startled Wei Yi.

"I've met the editor-in-chief." Wei Yi had no choice but to step forward and bow his hand.

"Less of these false courtesies." Chen Jiangming hurriedly said: "Hou Shizi of Nan'an, are you a friend?" ”

Wei Yi was quite calm by this time, but he still said proudly: "Yes, Mingda is my best friend. ”

"He's amazing." Chen Jiangming sighed: "People say that he is a young hero, and the injustice suffered by the old Nan Anhou is a lot of leaked out by his son this time." ”

"The defeat of the old Nan'an Hou seems to have a hidden secret?"

Chen Jiangming glanced at Wei Yi and said, "Don't worry about this matter, and don't ask around." ”

Wei Yi smiled slightly and agreed.

"The newspaper is going to issue a special issue for him." Chen Jiangming instructed: "First, tell in detail about the course of the war, and be detailed. The second is to talk about the back writing, and then talk about the Hou Shizi of Nan'an, of course, you can brag about your friends, as long as it is not too outrageous, it is up to you to play. ”

Wei Yi laughed and said, "In this way, I will thank the editor-in-chief first." ”

Xu Zixian is a young man, and it can't be said that he doesn't learn and has no skills, and he can't find any decent advantages. What is really worth talking about is the two things of the back article and the attack on the Qishan thieves and the killing of Chen Yuyong.

With Chen Jiangming's words, Wei Yi can still make up some stories, few and smart, long and sincere and filial, brainy, courageous, good humanity, good character, so that they can have a friendship with each other.

As for informing Xu Zixian, there is no need, friends are expensive to know each other, and it is good to buy such a thing, it is a friend of wine and meat, and it is not a real friend.

"Xu Zixian will have a future to soar." After Chen Jiangming finished instructing, he put his mind at ease, sighed with emotion before leaving, and said: "This person is not a thing in the pool, to be honest, you young friends, did he have a good chest before?" ”

Wei Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "Mingda is about a figure like King Chuzhuang, who has not made a name for three years, and he is a blockbuster. ”

"I see." Chen Jiangming was thoughtful, he was going to have a gathering with the proprietors of several important newspapers tonight, and it seemed that there was something to talk about at the banquet.

……

When Xu Xingwei heard the news, it was already dark, and he originally planned to go directly to Wei Yi, but the two brothers had a good drink and returned drunk, so that they could remember the happy thing they heard.

Li Cheng's matter, Xu Zi first mentioned it to these two good brothers, but how to follow up and how to deal with it, Xu Zixian never talked about it.

Xu Xingwei only said that Xu Zixian didn't want to bother himself with this matter, and he was secretly inquiring for a while to see if he could help...... The last time the Nan'an Hou Mansion went to Fuzhou, the yamen regarded it as a joke, Xu Xingwei's father was under the control of the military deputy capital, Xu Xingwei asked his father to help Han Bingzhong, the envoy of the system, to see if he could send a battalion of soldiers to Nan'anze Town to "prevent theft", but Han Bing categorically refused, and the envoy also said a few ugly words, which made Xu Xingwei's father embarrassed.

As soon as this matter reached Fucheng, Xu Xingwei's father, Xu Shicai, called Xu Xingwei into the study and said, "Mingda has passed through this incident, and his status is already above your martial arts. ”

Xu Xingwei said with a smile: "Mingda is still able to attack the lord, and he was originally above me. ”

"Not really." Xu Shicai shook his head and said: "The imperial court has been very strict on the clan in recent years, and many princes of the Hou Kingdom cannot attack the lord, and the imperial court has not removed its country, but it has never been able to inherit it, is it the same as removing the lord?" Mingda was originally not very promising, you have a good relationship, and I, who is a father, can't be too snobbish to stop you, but I always disagree in my heart. I only know today that my son has a good vision after all, our family has already come out of the five suits, and he can only go from the career of a military attachΓ©, whether he can fight for another title in the future, I think this matter can only fall on you. ”

Officials from "national families" have a much greater chance of being knighted after meritorious service than ordinary civil and military officials, after all, they are from the clan, and the imperial court will be slightly inclined when awarding knighthoods.

Any family with a national surname that has been expelled from the clan must also take the restoration of the ancestral title as its responsibility, which is a consideration of feelings and practical interests.

"My son is just like-minded with Mingda." Xu Xingwei was a little embarrassed, and lowered his head and said: "The father has too high expectations for his son, and the son is ashamed." ”

"You're still young after all!" Xu Shicai laughed and said: "Wu'er doesn't know, good vision and the choice of making friends are also a kind of luck, when heaven and earth are together, and heroes are not free." Following the heroes of the current situation, Wu'er can also take advantage of the time to enter! ”

……

In the evening, the Changwen Hou Mansion opened the lanterns one by one, after the lanterns were hung up, the snow was reflected in the area from the gate of the Hou Mansion to the main hall, dozens of healthy servants wore flowers and butterflies were generally busy inside and outside the palace gate, there were carriages and sedan chairs outside the gate from time to time, and there were also many nobles who came on horseback, these servants went forward, led the carriage and the sedan chair to the open space, and tied the horses to the tethered horse stone.

The clever ones welcomed the guests into the mansion from the side door, passed through the second gate, the instrument gate, and entered the courtyard where the main hall was located, where the lights were also colorful, and the guests had gathered a lot, laughing and laughing, quite lively.

Today is the 50th birthday of Chen Dujing, Marquis of Changwen, and the powerful gentry in Fuzhou City who are qualified to celebrate his birthday are all flocking to it.

Ordinary princes do not have this kind of treatment, unless the marquis of the clan has a real position, otherwise the birthday is more valued in the clan circle, and the officials, gentry and celebrities may not necessarily go to the court, depending on their actual power and influence.

The Changwen Marquis Mansion was born as a local celebrity on Fujian Road, and still has considerable influence on the local military and political affairs of Fujian Road. Chen Dujing once served as the military state minister of Zhangzhou, and retired two years after he was tired of official duties. In office, he has done a lot to restore the local livelihood of Zhangzhou and appease the displaced people, and his official reputation in Fujian Road is very good.

In addition to the officials, gentry and celebrities, the clan nobles also came a lot, the king of Qi himself did not arrive, by the prince of Qi Xu Zijing came to the door to celebrate his birthday, Zhao Wangfu is Xu Ziwen came, more than ten princes or came in person, or sent their children to celebrate their birthday, Chen Dujing sent his eldest son Chen Zhengzhi with a few children to entertain these young clan nobles, and he greeted the official gentry with status in the main hall, the whole main courtyard was a group of joy, and people came and went lively.

For a while, before it was time to pass the dishes and set up the banquet, the side hall was also very large, and everyone did not sit and drink tea and eat snacks, but sat in groups and chatted together.

Xu Ziwen is still the most people around him, this famous young clan in Fuzhou is also the most famous talent, tall and handsome, demeanor and eloquence are impeccable, the crowd around him is the most, and most of them are young handsome and girls in the wealthy clan, several girls are fascinated by Xu Ziwen's demeanor, and the little stars in the eyes are quite obvious.

The defense of men and women in the Great Wei Dynasty was not as strict as that in later generations, and there was nothing wrong with young men and women meeting and talking, and they could also go on blind dates by themselves, and even influence the decisions of their parents.

The folk are more open, women are of marriageable age, and it is not uncommon for them to choose a man to marry, generally on the night of the first year, there will be groups of young men and women walking in the market together, and they will stop and chat when they meet the eyes, if they really look at each other, the girl will give her bouquet to the man, if the man also accepts, you can inquire about the girl's family background, everything is fine, and you can ask the matchmaker to come to the door to propose.

Of course, there are still a few real encounters in the market, most of them live in the nearby market, and they usually have long been eye-catching, and the marriage is still mostly settled by the customs of Shangyuan Night.

As for elopement, wildness, and cooperation, these heavier tastes are not as serious as later generations seem...... In general, Dawei is not as enthusiastic and unrestrained as the Han and Tang Dynasties, but it is not too rigid, rigid and conservative.

Xu Ziwen has been quite accustomed to the things in front of him, and he did not feel uncomfortable, and talked eloquently, commenting on the poems in several newspapers this time.

Due to his familiarity with the anthology, Xu Ziwen, a lot of witty words of the vigilantes, blurted out, he himself has profound poetic attainments, and he is witty when he talks.

Although many young girls kept showing their love to Xu Ziwen, Xu Ziwen did not pretend, but glanced at Chen Wenjun sitting in the corner from time to time.

Xu Ziwen almost did not hide his good impression of Chen Wenjun, but what disappointed him was that Chen Wenjun did not hide his coldness.
