Chapter 121: Relatives Arrive
Life in Luoyang flies. After taking classes for three and a half days in a row and eating three meals of Xianlou's food, Zheng Sheng returned to the life of continuing to live in Sima Xin's mansion.
However, in private, Li Hong said to Zheng Sheng that students in Guozixue can't help but study under multiple masters at the same time. After all, the vast majority of masters teach only one subject. For example, Master Yu only taught the Book of Songs.
Li Hong suggested that Zheng Sheng could go to a few more masters to study. But Zheng Sheng thought about it for a while and decided to only study the Book of Songs, he didn't come to Luoyang to study after all. He still has a lot to do, and it is not a good thing that he takes up too much time in Guozixue.
However, in the past few days, Sima Dingyun has not come to see him. However, Sima Xin knew that Zheng Sheng had the intention of selling the auction house.
"Why don't you want it?"
Zheng Sheng thought for a while and said, "It's not that I don't want it." I just don't want to sell diamonds anymore right now. ”
"That thing is so profitable, why don't you sell it?"
"It's because of the huge profits that I don't want to sell. If it weren't for the Eyered Auction House and the diamonds, Shi Chong wouldn't be too targeted at me, would he? ”
"It makes sense."
Zheng Sheng was waiting for Zheng Wen's reply, but the letter never arrived.
Until the day when I was about to go to Guozi School for class.
The maidservant Wanru entered the door and said with a strange expression: "Zheng Shizi, someone is looking for you outside the door." ”
"Who?" Zheng Sheng sat up and asked casually.
In the past few days, it is not that there are no visitors who have come to him: Xun Sui has come to him three times. Li Hong and Jia Qu also came together once. He guessed that it was one or two of them who were coming today.
"The person who came claimed to be from your family. There is a middle-aged fat man who calls himself Zheng Wen. ”
"Zheng Wen?" Zheng Sheng was shocked, why did he actually come to Luoyang? Zheng Sheng quickly suppressed his surprise, after all, the matter of the auction house was very important, Zheng Wen might be worried that he would not be able to persuade him in the letter, and it was not strange to come directly to Luoyang.
Zheng Sheng walked out quickly, saw Zheng Wen at a glance, and just said, "Brother." Zheng Sheng saw Liu Wei'er beside Zheng Wen.
"Why are you here too?" Zheng Sheng said in surprise.
"I asked her to come to persuade you to change your mind. Everyone knows that you are willing to listen to her. Zheng Wen's tone was a little complaining.
Zheng Sheng frowned: "I made a decision, and no one can persuade me to turn back!" ”
"Let's go in and talk." Zheng Shengdao.
Zheng Sheng led them back to the room.
"Zheng Sheng, what happened?" Zheng Wen asked.
"I said it in that letter, and that's because of that." Zheng Sheng explained in detail what happened that day.
Zheng Wen sighed, "King Langya is a dragon, and his words can't be trusted. ”
"Can he still lie to me?"
If he wants to save the victims, he can just write a letter and ask for relief. When the king saw the disaster, he didn't say anything, but he blamed the scholars, why? Why do you not seek the reputation of the wise and the wise, but want to recruit the wise? ”
Zheng Sheng said helplessly: "What kind of wise man am I? These words were said by the Master, right? ”
"Yes, it was Master Qiu who asked me to tell you."
Zheng Sheng lowered his head, and his attitude towards Sima Rui quietly changed.
"By the way, did you really sell out of diamonds?"
"Not much." Zheng Shengdao.
"You're not lying to me, are you?" Zheng Wen set his eyes on Liu Wei'er.
Liu Wei'er looked at Zheng Sheng: "If the prince says no, there is really none." ”
Zheng Wen was a little stunned, this girl didn't say that before she went out!
"However, there will be an auction early next year. After that, there is no look at the situation. I will not make it difficult for Mr. Sima. ”
Zheng Wen's face softened slightly.
"And the matter of buying grain, don't you know the price of grain in Luoyang now? I have already brought a batch of grain from home, and it will arrive in Luoyang in a while. ”
Zheng Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, "It's good to transport grain from home, it's cheap and new." ”
Zheng Wen frowned and said, "Do you want to resell it in Luoyang?" Sell the new grain and buy the old grain cheaper. We don't lose much money this way, and we can even make it. ”
The corners of Zheng Sheng's mouth twitched, "No need." It's been long enough to transport grain, and it's taken too long to resell it. ”
Zheng Wen thought for a while and said, "Okay, there is also the King of Shunyang who knows about the auction house, and he may come to Beijing to see you after a while." ”
"I don't plan to transfer the auction house anymore, why does King Shunyang still want to come?"
"Those who don't want you to let go are people who care about you and think from your point of view, and outsiders really want you to sell the auction house."
Zheng Sheng believes that Sima Chang is definitely not like this! "Let's think about going to Hongnong first, and postpone the matter of the auction house. By the way, brother, where do you live? Why don't you stay here with Shinno Gong too? ”
Zheng Wen waved his hand, "You don't have to stay in the Xinye Mansion in the future." I sent someone to buy a house. ”
Zheng Sheng smiled bitterly: "You don't have to do this, right?" ”
"You can't stay in Xinyegong's house in Luoyang all the time. I plan to find a house closer to Guozi School, so it will be more convenient for you to study in the future. ”
"Tongluo Street is too expensive. It's okay to be far away. I ride a horse every day to study in the country, which is also very convenient. ”
Zheng Wen didn't say anything anymore: "Sniff just stay with you." Tomorrow I'll find the house and move in. ”
Zheng Wen left in a hurry.
Zheng Sheng walked back to the room, and Wanru was looking at Liu Wei'er curiously.
"Zheng Shizi, who is this?" Wanru asked in a low voice.
Zheng Sheng introduced to her: "Her name is Liu Wei'er. Sniff, this is a little girl sent by the county to take care of me, named Wanru. ”
"Wanru? What a name. Sniff chuckled.
"Zheng Shizi, are you leaving the house?" Wanru asked in a low voice.
Zheng Sheng nodded: "I really can't trouble the county magistrate all the time. It's better to find your own house. ”
"Will it be inconvenient for the son to live alone?"
Zheng Sheng looked at her in surprise, and then turned his head to look at Liu Wei'er: "No." She takes care of me! ”
"Really?" Wanru understood something, lowered her head and left.
Zheng Sheng closed the door tightly, walked in front of Liu Wen'er, and gently held her hands, "It's cold all the way." ”
Liu Wei'er said angrily: "Shizi, this Wanru is very interesting!" ”
Zheng Sheng was surprised: "You are actually jealous?" She's here to take care of my little girl. It's someone from the county government, how dare I provoke her? ”
"But doesn't she mean that she wants you to take her away from the county office?" Sniff snorted softly.
"No, you're here." Zheng Sheng said softly.
"I came to Luoyang because Master Zheng Wen asked me to persuade you to change your mind. I can't persuade you, I'm going back to Jingzhou. Liu Wei'er said softly.
"You want to go back?" Zheng Sheng was a little disappointed.
"When the prince decided to go to Beijing alone, how dare I disobey that determination?"
Zheng Sheng suddenly hugged her tightly: "Then I have changed my mind, I won't allow you to go!" Do you know how much trouble I have without you? Not long ago, I was dragged to a banquet by the county magistrate, and those people were all commensurate with their titles and official positions, so I couldn't figure out who they were. ”
"Shizi now understands Master Qiu's intention of asking you to learn that, right?" Liu Wen'er said softly.
"I don't need to. It's okay to have you, just let me be lazy in this matter! Good no good? Zheng Sheng hugged her tightly.
"Is that really why you want me to stay?" Liu Wei'er broke free and said angrily.
Zheng Sheng hugged her again and said softly, "Of course not." I should be, reluctant to lose the opportunity to hug you every day. ”
Liu Wei'er lowered her head in shame.
After a long time, and she didn't respond, Zheng Sheng hurriedly said, "Don't you want to stay?" ”
Liu Wei'er whispered: "The prince of the world has told others that he wants me to stay and take care of you." Of course I had no choice but to stay. ”
