Chapter 23: Chung Yeung Festival – Other People's Thoughts
Yun Wei did go to meet his good friend Huang Zicheng. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info After the Chongyang banquet was dispersed, he went back to the palace to change his clothes and went out of the palace like Yunxi (liao).
When he arrived at the box on the third floor of the old local cyclamen restaurant, Huang Zicheng was already waiting there. There was plenty of time today, and the two really reviewed the past of their relationship before they began to talk about what happened today. When Yun Wei said that he had mentioned the matter of the treasure money today, Huang Zicheng said excitedly: "How can Your Highness mention this matter now!" Didn't you say that you would mention it to Your Majesty after becoming the prince? ”
Yun Xi said like a child who had done something wrong: "Today, because Yun Xi put forward another good opinion to reform a maladministration of the Ministry of War, I couldn't help it for a while, so I mentioned it." Grandpa Huang didn't say that what I did was wrong. ”
Huang Zicheng smiled bitterly in his heart, how could Zhu Yuanzhang point out your mistakes, because you were originally right, and the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't correct it was inconvenient for Huang Zicheng to say to Yun Wei, so he could only say: "Don't mention the past again, what suggestions did His Royal Highness make today?" Yun Xi then repeated the suggestion that Yun Xi said today.
Huang Zicheng felt bad when he heard it, and he thought carefully in his heart, and said to Yun Wei: "As soon as this incident comes out today, the possibility of the Third Highness becoming the prince is really higher than that of His Highness." However, His Royal Highness still has a chance, and then the minister and his friends will sum it up to see what opportunities there are in the household department and provide His Highness with some political achievements. ”
Yun Wei's heart hates this kind of behavior similar to cheating, but now he can't care about this in order to be able to become a prince. Then the two discussed for a long time before they parted. Then Yun Xi met Yun Xi at Wenhua Gate.
When Yun Wei left, Huang Zicheng hurried to meet with his friend Yang Ren. Yang Ren is Huang Zicheng's hometown, and now he is the SX Taoist Imperial History in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The two have a very good relationship and trust each other.
Yang Ren saw Huang Zicheng and said, "Did His Royal Highness come down to see you just now?" ”
Huang Zicheng nodded and said, "The form is not optimistic." Tell Yang Ren what Yun Wei told him.
Yang Ren was also shocked when he heard it. He is not quite the same as Huang Zicheng, he used to be a magistrate, and his experience is much richer than Huang Zicheng. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "His Royal Highness may not be able to be the prince." Even if the policy of expanding the territory and dividing the feudal territory is not implemented, it will leave the impression in His Majesty's heart that he will not treat the kings harshly, which is much more impressive than the gentleness and reasonableness of the Second Highness; The promotion of outstanding officials can give His Majesty the impression of careful observation; Sending poems to Xi Pinghou can give His Majesty the impression of being quick-witted; Today's proposal to reform the method of evaluating officers above the command level shows that His Highnesses are diligent in thinking and are good at learning from the examples of previous dynasties. Counting these items, it can basically be determined that it is suitable to be a prince. ”
Huang Zicheng actually thought the same way, but he still looked confident in front of Yun Wei, and kept encouraging him. But in front of Yang Ren, he took off his disguise, and said: "Yes, Your Second Highness is going to be defeated, and I am not a qualified staff." "And then I kept repeating the phrase 'I'm not a good staffer'.
Yang Ren said after a while: "Are we all wrong, in fact, the Third Highness is indeed more suitable to be the emperor than the Second Highness." ”
Huang Zicheng came back to his senses and suddenly said excitedly: "Impossible! His Royal Highness is quick-witted, respectful and filial, friendly and friendly, and is the most suitable candidate for the prince! The third highness is a martial artist, how can he be a king! Yang Ren saw that something was wrong with him, so he hurriedly stopped talking about the topic. The two chatted for a while, and went home.
=================================================================
After separating from Yunxi, Chen Xing and Yang Feng returned to their home in the north of the city. The two walked all the way, chatting all the way, Chen Xing's house was closer to the palace, and they arrived first, Chen Xing said goodbye to Yang Feng and entered the house. His father, Chen Baoguo, had not yet returned home, so Chen Xing said hello to his mother and wife, who were busy in the backyard, and went into his house to lie down and rest.
Chen Xing was lying down and resting, while thinking about how he performed today. Chen Xing knew from the moment he was assigned to Yun Xi as a personal guard that his future career had been tied to Yun Xi. If Yun Xi can become the emperor in the end, he can also be a commander guarding the palace or something; If Yun Xi can't be the emperor in the end, he is lucky enough to be able to eat and die with the hereditary thousands of households in his family, and if he is unlucky, he will probably have to go desperately on the battlefield. Although Chen Xing's martial arts are good, after experiencing a war, he is reluctant to go to the battlefield again, so he desperately squeezes into the palace as a guard. After being assigned to Yun Xi's side, he couldn't decide whether Yun Xi could be the emperor's grandson, but in order to remember him if Yun Xi became the emperor's grandson, he tried his best to find a way to tie up Yun Xi. It's not easy to convince a royal child like Yunxi, anyway, it's definitely useless to give gifts, can people do without you? In the end, Chen Xing came up with this idea after discussing it with his father. He looks back on today's performance and feels that there was nothing wrong with it, and sometimes it was not perfect, but it was acceptable.
There may be readers who despise people like Chen Xing and feel ashamed of the soldiers, but this is human nature. How can the second generation of a petty official who has never suffered have the desperate spirit of his father and ancestors. And in the case of a passable life, who is willing to fight with their lives? In case of death, there is nothing left. Of course, the duty of a soldier is to protect the family and defend the country, Chen Xing is a hereditary thousand households, and the country has kept you food and clothing for generations, and when you are needed, you have no reason to dodge.
Chen Xing was thinking about it, and his father Chen Baoguo came back. Chen Xing's mother hurriedly came up to serve and instructed to start eating. Chen Xing also hurried out to greet his father. When Chen Baoguo saw Chen Xing, he couldn't care about anything else, and said, "How are you going to hang out with Your Royal Highness today?" How are the three highnesses in their mood? ”
Chen Xing replied: "His Royal Highness was quite interested at first, and I also invited His Highness to eat a bowl of noodles at the SD noodle restaurant, and His Highness also said that the noodles there are better than those in the palace, but after coming out of the noodle restaurant, I have been thoughtful and don't care about the scenery." ”
Chen Baoguo hurriedly asked: "What did you say in the noodle restaurant to make His Highness think like this?" It can't be that you or Yang Feng offended His Highness and didn't know it, right? ”
"Probably not. Yang Feng mentioned Liang Guogong when talking about the war against Naha, but he quickly stopped talking about it. His Royal Highness was thoughtful after asking Boss Tang why he didn't accept the treasure money. ”
Chen Baoguo said: "I see. When I was about to go home from work in the afternoon, I heard that in the morning, His Royal Highness put forward another proposal related to the army at the Chongyang banquet, saying that it was necessary to change the way in which officers of the whole country commanded officers at or above the rank of military officer, and to open a place for them to study, and it was also praised by His Majesty, saying that it would be implemented. ”
"This has nothing to do with our family for the time being, right? What else do you hear? ”
"Let me think about it. Oh, by the way, there is also a mention that His Royal Highness made a suggestion related to treasure money, but His Majesty did not express his position. ”
"Father, it seems that the suggestion related to the treasure money made by the Second Highness is not very good, and the Third Highness wants to put forward a better suggestion than the Second Highness, so doesn't it seem that the Third Highness is stronger than the Second Highness in an all-round way, so I asked Boss Tang about the treasure banknote."
"It seems so. Don't just think about how to please the Third Highness, I can inquire these days, the Third Highness can do things fairly, if you can't do it, even if the Third Highness becomes the emperor in the future, he will not promote you. ”
Chen Xing doesn't believe in this, he thinks, does this person still have people who don't promote their own people? This is equivalent to the initial team, and he can do it as a commander. But the father's words could not be refuted by the son, but he said, "Yes, yes, I know." ”
Chen Baoguo knew that his son didn't listen to him as soon as he saw his expression, but he also knew his son's temperament, sighed, and didn't say anything more.
=================================================================
Tang Bohe Tang Boss of SD Noodle Restaurant, after Yun Xi and his party left, he has been thinking about who 'Yun Gongzi' is. Until the evening, he had been in bed for a long time, and he was still thinking about it over and over again. The proprietress Mo asked him, "What's wrong with you?" What the hell are you wondering? It's so late and I turn it over and don't sleep. ”
Tang Bohe told his wife Mo what happened this afternoon. Mo Shi thought for a while, sat up on the bed, and said, "This 'Yun Gongzi' won't be, won't be, won't be the current Third Highness." ”
Tang Bohe was taken aback! He asked, "How do you think it's a highness?" ”
Mo said: "First, I also know that this Chen Xing is the most eye-catching person, and the average son-in-law is not in his eyes; Second, if that prince is the son of a duke earl's family, and now this duke earl's family is in danger, maybe one day the lord will get rid of that family, and then this Chen Xing, as a person related to them, may be implicated, how many people we have seen in the capital over the years who have been implicated to death, we can't count them, so Chen Xing can not know? Third, now Chen Xing can rest assured that the only people who can make friends with him are the princes; Fourth, the first prince's children are allowed to act, which is the same as the surname reported by the prince today; Fifth, I just heard your description that this 'Yun Gongzi' has a strong body, which is not consistent with the rumored Second Highness, but is more in line with the Third Highness, so I think today's 'Yun Gongzi' should be the Third Highness. ”
After listening to this, Tang Bohe felt that his wife's analysis was very reasonable, and he couldn't help but admire his wife very much. Although he knew that his wife was thoughtful and intelligent, he never knew that he was so talented, and said with a smile: "You are really my daughter Zhuge Kongming. Then he said, "Then we have to look forward to the Third Highness becoming the prince." ”
Mo Shi lay down and said, "Your Royal Highness won, and you may not remember our small noodle restaurant; The Second Highness won, let alone know who wins and who loses here, it has nothing to do with us, let's sleep well, otherwise we won't have the energy to entertain guests tomorrow. Tang Bohe thought that this was also the case, and his doubts were solved, and he became sleepy, so he lay down and slewd.
