Chapter Seventy-Two: Between Joy and Anger
Lan Ziyi angrily walked out of the celebrant eunuch, and cursed in his heart that the palace was full of pigs, and the people around him were all blind, and he was obviously talented, but he had to suffer from this nest of bastards!
The little eunuch at the door didn't dare to squeak when he saw Lan Ziyi like this, and looked inside to see Gonggong Long, but he couldn't see anyone, and when he was at a loss, a voice came from inside:
"Let's send it off."
The little eunuch was relieved and hurriedly led Lan Ziyi.
Lan Ziyi buried his head and just left, eager to get out of Taizheng and go to the ends of the earth, too aggrieved, too sad, too unfair, what is the need to work hard when things are so good in the world?
The little eunuch was supposed to lead the way, but Lan Ziyi walked too fast, and he could only trot all the way behind, reminding him from time to time which direction to turn.
Finally walked outside the door, the little eunuch let out a sigh of relief, and he could be regarded as able to rest for a while.
Lan Ziyi sat in the sedan chair and said angrily
"Go home!"
Seeing that he was in such a bad mood, the sedan chair drivers didn't say anything more and carried the sedan chair away.
After returning to the house, Lan Ziyi returned to the deer park angrily, originally because he didn't want to see anyone, he just wanted to be locked in the house and be quiet, but it backfired, and there were already people waiting for him in the house.
As soon as Lan Ziyi entered the hall, he saw that Cui Hao was already sitting waiting for him.
Seeing Lan Ziyi enter the house, Cui Hao got up and said:
"Wei Hou is back, Xiaosheng has been waiting in the house for a long time."
Lan Ziyi saw an inexplicable disgust in Cui Hao's heart, thinking about it carefully, Jiangnan Poetry Society was recommended by Zhang Mingyue, and this Cui Hao may also have a relationship with Zhang Mingyue. The last time I went to the Jiangnan Poetry Society, this person was obviously there to set up a score, but this time he actually came in person, it must be Zhang Mingyue who wanted to use the poetry club to plot misdeeds.
Lan Ziyi glanced at Cui Hao, and didn't return the salute, but said:
"I am busy today and do not have time to receive Mr. Cui. The scenery of the palace is beautiful, since Mr. Cui is here, of course, he should not come in vain, so I will ask someone to take Mr. to visit. β
After hearing this, Cui Hao looked up at Lan Ziyi, thought about it, and said:
"Since Wei Hou has something to do, Xiao Sheng is inconvenient to disturb, but the members of the Poetry Society heard that Wei Hou defended with several university scholars of the Military Aircraft Department in court a few days ago, and they were very admired, and wanted to invite Wei Hou over for a glass of wine to catch up on the past. Since Marquis Wei is an important minister of the palace and is busy with official business, let's make an appointment another day and leave. β
When Lan Ziyi heard this, his mood changed, and he said movingly:
"Sir, please stay!"
Originally, Lan Ziyi had always been indignant that he was brave and resourceful, and made great contributions to the palace, but he didn't expect that he was not only not appreciated but also framed by others. At this time, Cui Hao suddenly said that the people in the poetry club admired him, and he suddenly felt refreshed, in fact, he was not a man to ask for that praise, but he couldn't lose what he deserved. Although Cui Hao is still suspected of doing things for Zhang Mingyue, but it's okay to guard against it, there are always Zhang Mingyue's people in the poetry club, right? Think about your grievances in the palace again, and then it is even more important to have someone who understands and appreciates you.
ε °εδΉ says:
"Mr. stay, Ziyi just has some things to do, I want to ask Mr. to visit the palace for the time being, so that I can give me some time, not to drive Mr. away. In this case, things can be done later, and the number of courtesies cannot be lost. Sir, you may be seated. Come on, watch the tea! β
When Cui Hao heard this, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said:
"Wei Hou doesn't have to bother, he already served me tea when he came in just now."
Lan Ziyi also smiled, and made a gesture of invitation for Cui Hao to sit down, and he sat down on the main seat.
After sitting down, Cui Hao didn't speak again, but picked up the tea bowl and slowly tasted the tea, saying a word from time to time
"Good tea, good tea."
Lan Ziyi wanted to listen to more of the poetry club members' comments on him, but Cui Hao never said it, and Lan Ziyi's heart was like a cat scratching.
So Lan Ziyi said:
"Sir just said that the Poetry Society wants to invite me over?"
Cui Hao blew the tea leaves and took another sip, but did not answer Lan Ziyi.
Lan Ziyi doesn't know why, he doesn't feel a little angry at this time, he just wants to listen to what the people in the poetry club say, of course, this is not for outsiders' evaluation of himself, of course, it is not for that little bit of fame, he just wants to understand whether what he does is worthwhile, whether his talent is really shown, yes, that's it, Lan Ziyi firmly believes. It's just that Cui Hao hasn't spoken, which is inappropriate.
Lan Ziyi didn't care about being reserved, and then asked:
"Mr. Cui just said that the members of the poetry club have a lot of comments on me, I don't know what they said?"
Cui Hao put down the tea bowl at this time, looked at Lan Ziyi with a smile and said:
"It's not about what you have to say about Wei Hou, but because I admire what Wei Hou has done."
Lan Ziyi's heart was very relieved when he heard this, as if a gust of breeze was blowing, and it was like drinking good wine, which was intoxicating. After all, he was not buried by the red dust, in the end, there are still people who appreciate him, and the hero sees the same thing. Lan Ziyi felt that he still wanted to join the poetry club in the end, and there were all young talents like himself.
Looking at Lan Ziyi's relaxed expression, Cui Hao continued:
"Wei Hou may also know that most of the children of the poetry club are the children of the official eunuchs, and when I am usually at home, I am taught a lesson by my own old people, and I dare not come out. This time, Wei Hou can be regarded as a bad breath for us. β
Hearing this, the expression on Lan Ziyi's face sank again, could it be that they admired me just because they scolded their father for them? Isn't it because of his ability to speak well and be quick-witted?
Cui Hao looked at Lan Ziyi and said:
"Of course, this is only a minutiae, what we admire the most is the courage of Wei Hou when he faced the court Zaifu, the loyalty to the prince, and the wisdom and ingenuity that did not lose to anyone. These are all things that those who can only die reading will never learn, and they are also what we and other scholars should strive to emulate. β
Hearing this Lan Ziyi can be regarded as happy, Cui Hao's words are in his heart, even if he is Zhang Mingyue's henchman? Chess meets opponents, heroes cherish heroes, this is a wonderful talk in the world.
Lan Ziyi smiled:
"I've won the award, Mr. Cui has really won the award, and Ziyi is just doing his part."
Then Lan Ziyi suddenly thought of something and asked:
"How did Mr. Cui know what happened to the Military Aircraft Department at that time?"
Cui Hao laughed after hearing this, and said:
"Wei Hou doesn't know, these days after the old man of our family went home the most scolded Wei Hou you, we all listened to your father more than once in the military aircraft department, and called out with Master Du, bargained with Zhang Mingyue, listening to his father's incessant abuse, Wei Hou's majestic appearance at that time has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Xiao Sheng asked himself if he put me in that position, Xiao Sheng would definitely obey his fate. β
Lan Ziyi listened to it in his heart, like a big river flowing eastward, all of them were comfortable and happy. Of course, his face was still unfazed, and Lan Ziyi said:
"But after all, it's the elders who I'm fighting against, and I still have to say sorry to Mr. Cui."
Cui Hao smiled:
"Wei Hou thinks too much. Old men are old men, and we are us. If the Taisho world always relies on these pedantic old gentlemen, what kind of life will there be? Without the injection of these new forces from us, Taisho would definitely have collapsed. β
Lan Ziyi also smiled:
"Mr. Cui, this is unfilial."
ε΄ζ΅© says:
"There is the so-called great filial piety, and there is the so-called unfilial piety. The sage has clouds: good at following the will of others, good at telling people's affairs. We want to inherit the spirit of our father's generation to save the great from fire and water, not to obey like a puppet. β
Lan Ziyi agreed with what Cui Hao said. No matter what Cui Hao's background is, he is always a talent, a young talent like himself, but he is a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Lan Ziyi thought about it, the mastermind behind Qi Rongxun may be Zhang Mingyue, and now is the opportunity to explore the bottom. So he asked:
"Zhang Zhongtang is a scholar of Shoufu University and a model scholar. I confronted him this time, isn't that enough to be scolded by the scholar? β
Cui Hao looked at Lan Ziyi and said:
"Wei Hou is too worried. It is true that Zhang Mingyue is the leader of Shilin, and I and other students are also very respectful. But what we admire is his knowledge and character, not his power. Wei Hou scolded him for the sake of the prince, it is reasonable, how could anyone scold Wei Hou. β
Lan Ziyi smiled, and then asked:
"But Zhang Zhongtang has a huge power, and he is a secretary of the ministry, if you don't give him face, what can you do in the future?"
Cui Hao snorted coldly:
"He's just a temporary scholar, not a one-thing scholar, there's no need to look at his face and act! He's just a minister, not even a powerful minister. Besides, my family is not from cloth clothes, why do you look up to him Zhang Mingyue snorted. β
Although Cui Hao's words did not completely eliminate Lan Ziyi's suspicions, they still reassured Lan Ziyi a lot.
After that, Lan Ziyi said:
"Mr. Cui, don't say that, Lord Zhang is the first assistant of the dynasty."
Cui Hao said:
"Give him face, he is, if you don't give it to him, what can he do to me?"
A sneer crossed the corner of Lan Ziyi's mouth, and then asked with concern:
"Mr. Cui doesn't dare to talk nonsense, I heard that Zhang Zhongtang has a close relationship with the forbidden army and even the Eastern Army, Mr. Cui is careful of going wrong with such nonsense."
Cui Hao laughed after hearing this, and said:
"Wei Hou, where did you hear this kind of nonsense?"
ε °εδΉ says:
"Isn't it?"
ε΄ζ΅© says:
"In order to prevent military households from escaping, we stipulate that only one person from each clan is allowed to participate in the imperial examination for all military registration. Zhang Mingyue was born in a military family, but he worked hard for the imperial examination. He hated the army to death, how could he have a close relationship with the forbidden army? This kind of rumor is really not leveled. β
When Lan Ziyi heard this, he suddenly realized in his heart, it turned out that Zhang Mingyue was targeting himself for this. But Zhang Mingyue is not from the Northern Army, why is he targeted everywhere? Why not target Qi Rongxun? There are still some things that don't make sense, but after all, I still found a lot of news.
