Volume 1 Wanfu Li Chapter 36 Buying You
A student with a good background died in the Yanta Academy, and a dark force fell in a place that ordinary people in Chang'an City could not see, if the court and the rivers and lakes in Chang'an City formed an ocean, then the splash of these two things was really not much.
The chief of Chang'an Mansion completely let go of this matter after arresting the Yanta Academy once, in his words, he is a small official anyway, and the pressure is on the prefect.
There are all kinds of voices within the academy, and it is not that difficult to find out the matter, but after all, it involves a deputy director of the martial arts, from the martial arts of the fourth grade, whether it is big or small, and the military department has to say a few words for its own people, of course, the people in the military department are more like going through the motions.
Someone demanded that Meng Changan be severely punished, and jointly asked the old dean to make a ruling, but a group of people stood outside the old dean's door from morning to sunset and did not see anyone, so people understood the old dean's thoughts, no matter how loud the voice inside the academy was, it was no more than the silence of the old dean.
Silence is an attitude.
The old dean was called into the palace that night, and everyone was speculating about what His Majesty would say to the old dean, Daning Shangwu, Sikuwu Mansion is the top priority, I am afraid that Your Majesty can't pretend to turn a blind eye.
Someone secretly sneered, saying that His Majesty's attitude is always more important than the attitude of the old dean.
But most people who think like this don't know that His Majesty's attitude is the same as the old dean's attitude most of the time, and the senior bachelor who is a protΓ©gΓ© of the Three Dynasties once said that he will never be able to compare to the old guy in Yanta Academy.
The name is in the depths of the Imperial Garden, and the name was inscribed by His Majesty himself, but no one understands what the name means.
The emperor waved his hand and motioned for the attendants to withdraw, and then personally poured a cup of tea for the old dean: "I know that the effort is not proportional to the gain. β
The old dean said, "Of course not. β
The emperor's hand stopped slightly: "Which way to go?" β
The old dean said with a smile: "Your Majesty is making a lot of money, Meng Chang'an's posture of a tiger and a leopard, if Your Majesty thinks that the old minister is still accurate, you can pay more attention to this little guy in the future, maybe in the future you will have to wronged him to choose a place in the four frontiers, Your Majesty only needs a few words to appease a deputy secretary, and it is really profitable to protect a big general in the future." β
"The old dean has never been sure about the future of judges, what's wrong today?"
"Because it's too obvious, as long as he doesn't die, it's just a matter of coming out sooner or later."
The emperor took a notebook and wrote it down, and on a certain day, a certain year, a certain month, and a certain old man said that Meng Changan would be a general in the future, and the old dean was stunned, and sighed, Your Majesty, is this a crime for the old minister in advance?
The emperor laughed and put down the notebook: "Who is Meng Changan's helper?" I sent someone to ask, and his family background is average. β
"I don't know."
The old dean said: "I just heard that Meng Changan has a cousin from the same township who came to see him. β
The emperor wrote down a few words of Meng Changan's fellow villager in his notebook: "A fellow villager cousin who can chop a stray knife with a knife by himself, if he is really a cousin, Meng Changan must follow his mother more." β
The old dean pondered the meaning of His Majesty's words for a while, and then realized that His Majesty was so cold when he told a joke......
"People from Anyang County, Zhuang Yong is training in Anyang County, let him pay attention to it, such a good billet will be wasted if he doesn't join the army."
The emperor sat down: "Meng Changan is injured, can the top three be saved?" β
"I'm not 100% sure."
"How many percent?"
"Nine out of nine."
The old dean felt so good, Meng Changan's uncomfortable energy was transferred to His Majesty the Emperor...... Sure enough, the emperor tilted his head and glanced at him, and the old dean was so happy to be glimpsed.
"Did he say where he was going?"
"Northern Iron Cavalry."
"Chen Zishan's father is in Beikuwu Mansion, he has to go to Northern Xinjiang? is so far away from Chang'an City, if you really want to avenge your son, Chen Zi has countless ways to make Meng Changan die in an accident. β
"If you go somewhere else, Chen Zirconium will be more unscrupulous, right? If Meng Changan had an accident in Northern Xinjiang, no one would inevitably think of him. β
"How much do you care about avenging your son? Without proof, I can't do anything to him. β
"So the old minister thinks that His Majesty should remind Chen Zirconium when he finds an opportunity."
"Are you asking me to protect Meng Chang'an directly? He doesn't have that weight yet. β
"No, no, no, the old minister means to remind Chen Zi to be careful, Meng Changan is going to Northern Xinjiang, Chen Zi is very dangerous."
The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said that the old dean's joke was very cold.
"Everything is waiting for him to really get a big competition and choose the first place, and then say, it's not too early, the old dean will go back and rest first, right?"
"Is Your Majesty going to bed here tonight?"
"No, I have to go back to the harem."
"That'...... Can Lao Chen borrow a chair here for a night? β
"Huh?"
"I don't want to go back, there should still be people outside the old minister's door at this time, the old minister is afraid that he won't sleep well, and when he gets older, sleep becomes extremely important."
The emperor laughed: "Come on, put a bed in the living room for the old dean." β
No one thought that the old dean was actually lying in the house until it was dark the next day, and he didn't even participate in the big competition, and in the evening, the news that the first selection of the Yanta Academy was Meng Changan entered the palace, and the old dean walked out of the house with a smile, raising his eyebrows.
That guy still has serious injuries on his body, but nine out of nine is nine out of nine.
Before the old dean left the palace, he was called back by the emperor again, of course, this was not unexpected by the old dean, his walking posture was a little floating, how many good talents have been cultivated by the dean for so many years? Pei Tingshan, the general of Eastern Xinjiang, is a person from the academy, and now he has to respectfully shout Mr. when he sees him, but he is not as happy as he is today.
The Imperial Study.
The emperor put down the things he was holding, looked at the old dean and asked seriously, "Why don't you go back and preside over the big competition?" β
"If the old minister is here, some people will say that the old minister is unjustly interfering in Dabi, the old minister is not in the academy, and Meng Changan's first choice of martial arts is more pure."
"The cunning is talking about people like you."
The emperor handed the old dean what he had just seen: "The Meng Changan you said won the first place in the martial arts selection, and he took the time to go to the Wenxuan to ask for a score of the exam paper, you can take a look." β
The old dean took it and looked at it, looking a little embarrassed: "Daning has been in the academy for hundreds of years, and the academy has been a hundred years, and there has not been a person who is the first in both civil and military affairs." β
"That's a good thing, why do you seem a little embarrassed?"
"The old minister is embarrassed for His Majesty, the first in the two subjects, is the sixth grade low?"
The emperor had long expected him to say this, and he was still awkward in those few sentences of dialogue yesterday, and finally found an opportunity to fight back: "I am really embarrassed, it is not an exaggeration to give such an achievement directly to the fifth grade, but who taught him that he was involved in other things before, and the merits and demerits are offset, so it is still a positive sixth grade." β
The old dean opened his mouth, and it tasted a little bitter.
The emperor's mood changed for the better.
"How many people will watch a young man with a reputation as the number one on the double list? If I hold it higher, it's not a good thing for him, the common people stare at people and forget about jokes for three or five days, and the court can stare at people and jokes for three or five years, and I am for his good. β
The emperor stood up: "I remember that Chen Zi, the deputy director of Beikuwu Mansion, has two sons, and Chen Zishan also has an elder brother, it is said that when he was a child, he was sick and burned his brain, and now he is still stupid, I will give him some of Meng Changan's blessings, and give him a third-class man, it is good for both families, Chen Zizi can't raise his son for a lifetime......"
The old dean bowed over: "Thank you, Your Majesty." β
His Majesty is talking about dividing Meng Chang'an's blessings, but he is actually complaining about Meng Chang'an's virtue...... If Chen Zi is a smart person, he will understand His Majesty's hard work, there will always be a time when their husband and wife will go first, and the third-class man's fortune is enough for his sick son to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.
According to the usual practice, the champions of the two subjects of the academy competition, Wuxuan Wenxuan, had to parade through the streets in red and hang colors on the second day to accept the cheers and blessings of the people, but the next day the team gathered to find that Meng Changan had disappeared.
Later, someone inquired about it, and Meng Changan went to the military department early in the morning, received the paperwork and a black line knife, and left Chang'an City alone with a very small package on his back and went north.
It's like when he left Fish Scale Town alone with a small package on his back and those copper coins that Shen Leng gave him, that guy was lonely in his bones, no, he was arrogant.
Routine is not the law, so Meng Changan did not appear in the celebration procession, no one could do anything to him, some people secretly scolded him for not knowing what to do, some people felt that there was a problem behind this matter, and some people wondered if Meng Changan was killed, and there were different opinions.
Shen Leng knew that Meng Chang'an's mouth couldn't close when he won the first place in the two subjects in the academy, and at this time he had been back to the Anyang County Water Master for many days, and the unpleasant news he heard before was also diluted a lot by this good news.
After returning to the water division, Shen Leng heard that Mu Xiaofeng was promoted by His Majesty to General Yingyang from the fourth grade, and his status among the water divisions was second only to Zhuang Yong, and he also hung up the post of deputy admiral of the water division.
After a day's training, Shen Leng returned to the barracks to take a rest, and was called by the person sent by Zhuang Yong as soon as he was lying on the bed, and since he came back, Zhuang Yong has never asked him what he did in Chang'an City, and now it seems that he can't help it.
After Shen Leng entered the door, he gave a military salute and stood solemnly, Zhuang Yong raised his hand and threw him something, Shen Leng smiled after catching it and looking at it, it was an iron medal of a ten-person team.
"General Xie!"
"What are the requirements?"
"Can I pick ten people?"
"Nope."
"Five?"
"Nope."
"Two? It couldn't be less. β
"Okay, two at most."
Shen Leng said: "I want Wang Kuohai, who is in the assessment with me, and there is a recruit named Chen Ran who has just passed the assessment, just these two people." β
Zhuang Yong frowned slightly: "Wang Kuohai is a good billet, Chen Ran is average in all aspects, why do you want him?" β
Shen Lengxin said that every soldier general who participated in the assessment had understood, how could such a general not be able to bring a strong army?
"When I was a child, I didn't eat less of his steamed buns, and when I left the town, I spent his family's money, but these are not important, the important thing is that he is my friend, and I will not be bullied if I follow him."
Shen Leng's answer was always so strange, eating his family's steamed buns cost his family's money, he could say this kind of thing without blushing and heartbeat.
Zhuang Yong put down the things in his hand, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly asked, "Cousin?" β
Shen Leng turned around and left.
"Stop!"
Zhuang Yong snorted: "Where can you run?" β
Shen Leng turned around and smiled awkwardly: "General, can I buy you for this?" I think it's a bit hard to kill people. β
Zhuang Yong: "......"
Shen Leng: "I haven't paid back the twenty taels of silver I borrowed last time, otherwise the general will lend me another hundred taels?" β
"What?"
"Bribe you!"
Zhuang Yong: "......"
