Chapter 473: Examining Gong Langzhong
On the evening of the 29th of the lunar month, the Imperial City of Daqi (beautiful men are very bewitching txt download).
Tomorrow will be the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the inner and outer palaces of the imperial city are brightly lit and brightly lit, with a strong sense of joy.
When he was a child, Song Zheng and Yao Yukun each came to the palace with their own forbidden army team. has been on duty many times, and Song Zheng is already familiar with it, so he will soon arrange it properly. After inspecting it, Song Zheng returned to the Imperial City Division. Sitting under the light, Song Zheng looked at the newspaper that had just been printed. This is his habit, every time he is on duty, he has to look through the recent newspaper to grasp the political trends.
Di Bao This thing, the Western Han Dynasty has it. After the invention of paper, it became more popular. In the Great Song Dynasty of the previous dynasty, there were already hawkers in society who made a living by selling their mansions (several times the soul dream was with you). However, at this time, the newspapers were all manuscripts, and the content was quite simple, mainly publishing the emperor's edicts, the progress of ministers, and the appointment and dismissal of officials.
For Di Bao, Song Zheng looked very carefully. Suddenly, the above news caught Song Zheng's attention: "Song Yu, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, was ordered to be the official to test the meritorious service." ”
After Song Zheng came to Jiangning, he always wanted to hear about Song Yu, but he didn't get it. A few days ago, it was busy, and the second is that he kept an eye on it. It is impossible for Song Yu not to know about the joy he made in Jiangning City, but Song Yu did not contact the Song Mansion, and he didn't even ask someone to bring Xin'er. Song Zheng was anxious, but he guessed whether Song Yu had other intentions.
As early as when Song Yu knew the truth about Song Yu's death, he had already untied the knot in his heart and had no hatred for his eldest brother, but he never took the initiative to express anything to Song Jue. However, Song Jue has been in Jiangning for more than a year, and Song Yu has not come to the door. This is too unconscionable. The only explanation is that Song Yu is hiding something, or that Song Yu wants to create an illusion.
It was precisely for this reason that Song Zheng did not dare to rush to find the third uncle Song Yu, and he didn't even let people inquire. In the entire Song Mansion, Song Yu has never been talked about. Except for Xiaoping and Xiaosi, no one in the other subordinates even knew that in addition to Song Huan in Jiangning City, there was also a Song Yu.
Now, there is news of Song Yu in the newspaper, and Song Zheng is very happy. However, soon, Song Zheng frowned again. Song Yu actually became the examiner of the Ministry of Officials, which was really unexpected. The official position in the examination of merit is not high, it is only a sixth grade, which is higher than a county order, however, it is extremely important.
There are eight people in the Ministry of Officials, and the officials who are inspected are below the third grade of the 11th Road of Daqi. In later generations, the so-called Jingcha was completed by the examination of the merit. Evaluate the performance of officials and influence the appointment of officials. If the examiners inspect various places, the local officials have to make offerings like their ancestors.
What puzzled Song Zheng was how such a fat difference could fall on Song Yu's head. Song Yu has not been admitted to the Jinshi for a few years, although he is a second-list jinshi (Jinshi is divided into three lists, the first list is the champion, the list eye, Tanhua, and then the second list and the third list), and he entered the Hanlin Academy, but there are seventy or eighty Jinshi in the Hanlin Academy, and there are even many old Jinshi who are poor, why did Song Yu stand out and get such a fat difference?
And this personnel adjustment is also quite weird, appearing at the bottom of the year (HP picks up the phoenix to read the full text). At this time in previous years, personnel changes were generally not made, but were mostly concentrated after the beginning of spring. Now, this incident made Song Zheng very confused.
————
Hanlin Temple is not far from the Imperial Palace. Although the Hanlin people did not enter the palace outside the imperial city to work like the members of the six ministries, in order to summon the convenience, they built the Hanlin Courtyard in the southeast of the palace.
On the evening of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, after Song Zheng finished his duty, he changed into civilian clothes, refused to be escorted by his personal guards, and left the palace alone. Song Zheng usually uses personal guards, but not many times, and most of the time he is alone. Of course, Song Zheng's excuse was to let the guards rest more. For Qin Shan, the captain of the personal guard, and others have also become accustomed to Song Zheng's style.
Turning to the corner of the street where there was no one, Song Zheng looked at the front and back of no one, then twisted his body and got into the shadows. Follow the base of the wall and head southeast. With his skills, he naturally would not be discovered by the patrolling city guards, and soon came to the Hanlin Courtyard.
When Song Zheng was chatting with Yao Yukun, he had already quietly inquired about the situation in the Hanlin Academy. Hanlin Courtyard covers an area of not much, just a courtyard of four or five acres, with several rows of houses, which is the place where Hanlin people go to work. On the south side of the Hanlin Academy, there are dozens of small courtyards of acres in size, which can be regarded as official dormitories.
Previously, Song Zheng had secretly sent Song Xiaosi here to inquire and find out Song Yu's address. Song Yu owned a small courtyard by himself and bought two servants, and that's it.
After observing the terrain for a while, Song Zheng burrowed into an alley and soon came to a courtyard, which was Song Yu's residence. Song Zheng looked through the crack in the door and saw that the courtyard was dark and swarthy, as if there was a little light. He put his ear to the crack in the door, and listened to the movement, but heard nothing.
Song Zheng went around to the side of the wall, touched the crack in the stone on the wall, and pulled out the fish intestine sword. After taking two steps back, he jumped forward, and as soon as the fish intestine sword was inserted in the crack in the stone, he climbed the wall with the help of his strength (the latest chapter of the three years on the bridge).
Looking into the courtyard from the wall, it was quiet everywhere, except for a room on the east side of the north house, where the light still shone through the paper window. Song Zheng slipped down the courtyard wall and quietly touched the window. I listened carefully first, and all I heard in the room was the sound of flipping books. Gently opened a small opening, only to see a thin man in Tsing Yi sitting in the room, facing the window sideways. I haven't seen him for a few years, but Song Yu has not changed much except for a black beard on his chin.
Song Zheng clenched his fists, but did not rush into the house, but quietly touched the west wing, put his ear to the door, and there was a slight snoring sound from inside. Judging by the breath, it was two people.
Song Zheng opened the door and touched in. These two people are naturally Song Yu's two little guys, and they are not very old, seventeen or eighteen years old. Song Zheng carefully distinguished, waved his right palm, cut on the neck stalks of the two, and knocked the two unconscious.
With a light breath, Song Zheng exited the wing room and returned to the north room window. With two clicks, Song Zheng knocked on the window.
"Who?" Song Yu in the room stood up suddenly.
Song Zheng lowered his voice, "Third uncle, it's me." ”
Song Yu was stunned for a moment, then his face showed ecstasy, and he hurried to the door and opened the door.
"Zheng'er!" Song Yu opened her arms and took Song Zheng in her arms. Immediately, as if he realized something, he quickly let go, glanced at the side room, and said in a low voice, "Come into the house!" ”
Entering the back room, Song Yu saw Song Zheng's face clearly. The thin boy a few years ago has become a young man, and his stature is already as tall as him. The face is like a crown of jade, the eyebrows are open, and the end is a beautiful young man.
Song Yu's eyes were full of tears, he stretched out his arms again, hugged Song Zheng, called "Zheng'er", and was speechless. Song Zheng also sighed, and the corners of his eyes were moist. When Song Jiazhuang was acting for his father Ding Wei, Song Zheng and Song Yu got along day and night, and they had already formed a deep relationship. Song Yu has no queen, and treats Song Zheng, the only seedling of the Song family, as a son.
After a long time, the two separated (stallion, please go away and read the full article).
"Zheng'er, why are you here?" The voice was still low.
"The third uncle didn't want to see me, so I had to come to the third uncle." Song Zheng smiled, "The two in the east wing, I've been knocked unconscious, and I can't hear us talking." ”
Song Yu was stunned, immediately put his mind at ease, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few years, you are getting older and hotter, how can you look like a teenager of your age." ”
That night, Song Zheng and Song Yu had a long talk.
It turned out that after Song Yu passed the Jinshi examination, he entered the Hanlin Academy and served as an editor. He knew that he was the object of revenge, so he wanted to get closer to the side of the juniper. However, what kind of status is that he can be approached by a small Hanlin. After being silent for a while, Song Yu gradually figured out the state of the government.
Compared with Song Jue, Song Yu is much more flexible. He pondered it and came up with his own idea. Since he couldn't get close to Xiao Hui directly, he started with the people around Xiao Hui, and the object he chose was Dong Lancheng, the squire of the military department.
Dong Lancheng is one of Xiao Hui's descendants, and he is also a high-ranking and powerful person. Dong Lancheng has a nephew named Chu Guan, who has also been edited by the Hanlin Academy. It's just that he was later transferred to the Jiangning Mansion. Song Yu made friends with Chu Guan under the pretext of asking for experience from his seniors. Under Song Yu's deliberate pandering, the relationship between the two became increasingly harmonious and gradually became close friends.
Last year, on Dong Lancheng's birthday, Chu Guan wrote a congratulatory message for his uncle and asked Song Yu to correct it. Song Yu hollowed out his mind and almost rewrote the congratulatory message, making it full of flowers. Chu Guan was overjoyed, and knew that Dong Lancheng was pretentious and elegant, and was willing to associate with Shilin, so he asked Song Yu to visit him.
Song Yu is well-educated, and in order to cater to officials, he deliberately worked entertainment articles. Dong Lancheng liked Song Yu very much, so he asked Song Yu to "straighten up" some entertainment things several times, and in this way, Song Yu and Dong Lancheng became close. In her conversations with him, Song Yu deliberately occasionally showed some dissatisfaction with Huang Yuandu's policy. This made Dong Lancheng even more important.
Song Jue was recruited by Huang Yuandu to Jiangning and served as the deputy chief teacher of the Academy of Literature, and Song Yu also knew (hi, the latest chapter of the military wife). But revenge is so secret, and Song Yu doesn't want to cause any trouble because of it. Therefore, it is deliberately alienated. Even on Song Huan's side, he didn't move, putting on a look of breaking with the Song family.
Song Zheng became famous, and Song Yu naturally knew. However, he didn't want to contact Song Zheng without authorization, so he had to wait patiently for Song Zheng to come to the door. He believed that with Song Zheng's wisdom, he would definitely contact him secretly.
"I'm ashamed to say that I tried my best for my uncle, but I still have a relationship with that juniper." Song Yu's face was indignant, "If it goes on like this, I don't know when I will be able to take revenge on my father!" ”
Song Zheng smiled, "Third uncle, don't worry, you are already the first to come out of my expectations." That Huang Yuandu is so powerful, avenging his grandfather is not something that can be completed overnight. I read from the newspaper that my uncle was appointed as a meritorious officer in the ministry, which was a big step. ”
"It's strange to say this, I didn't hear a little wind before, so I entered the ministry in such a daze. I vaguely guessed that it was Dong Lancheng's power, however, how could he, a squire of the military department, get me to the ministry? ”
"Didn't the third uncle take the opportunity of the New Year's visit to show Dong Lancheng about it?"
"Dong Lancheng just told me to do my best, and the rest didn't say anything."
Song Zheng pondered for a moment, "Third uncle, this matter is indeed not Dong Lancheng's master, but there must be something hidden behind this." If Dong Lan really sees you as her own person, there will definitely be instructions in the future, and we will just wait and see what happens. ”
"Having said that, if Huang Song's thief is not eliminated for a day, it will be difficult for me to feel at ease."
"Huang Song is mortal!" Song Zheng's face sank, "I have a way to deal with him." It's just that time is missing! ”~
