Chapter 18 The Visitor
When he walked out of the palace, Feng Wuxian only felt relaxed all over his body, and the troubles and doubts that had plagued him for many days seemed to be swept away. The emperor has decided to be succeeded by Yue Qifan, and not only that, but in the future, he will be in charge of the affairs of the household department with the title of county king, that is, the treasury of the imperial court will be added by him, the prince, with a lock. Before coming, Feng Wuxi, who was still thinking about how to free Guo Lu and the others, almost had an urge to look up to the sky and smile, and the original Jiuqing trial was also ordered by the emperor, and I believe that no one would stir it up without long eyes. I believe that Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang will definitely have no problem releasing a prefect at that time, plus his uncle Xiao Yunchao will operate there, and he will be able to mix with the feudal officials in a few years.
However, when Feng Wuxian entered the official sedan chair, he thought of the most serious problem, the ownership of the storage position seems to have the intention of the father, if nothing else, his younger brother with the same father and mother may be the ultimate winner. Thinking of his arrogant look and disrespectful attitude before, Feng Wuxi's face couldn't help but be gloomy, once this kind of conceited person ascended the throne, I am afraid that he would not remember his own merits at all, and in the end, it was better not to make wedding clothes for others. If he is unkind, then stop blaming yourself for being unrighteous at that time, and you must firmly check and balance him.
As soon as he stepped into the gate, Feng Wuxian saw Fan Qingcheng waiting there, looking dazed, and he knew that there was an uninvited guest in the prefect's mansion in his heart. "Qingcheng, who's here again?" His tone was a little helpless, "There was not a single guest a few days ago, but now it's good, and they are hugging one after another." ”
"Your Royal Highness, this time there are two groups of guests, one is Fan Hengwen and Li Junda, the editors of the Hanlin Academy, and the other is the king of Anjun, the slave took it upon himself to lead the king of Anjun to the small study, and the other two are waiting in the main hall." Fan Qingcheng looked at his master's face, for fear that Feng Wuxian would be angry in the palace, and it would be boring to get angry with himself.
"Qingcheng, you can do it!" Feng Wuxian casually instructed Xu Chunshu and the others to rest, and brought himself and Xiao Fangzi to the main hall first, "You can distinguish between relatives and relatives, King Anjun is his own family, it doesn't hurt to settle him in the study, you let people send more seasonal fruits and tea and other things to let him use slowly, this king sent those two people to see him." ”
"Slaves can be saved." Fan Qingcheng understood in his heart, and went to the small study first after confessing his guilt.
From a distance, Feng Wuxian saw the two people in the main hall fidgeting, and couldn't help but think that Fan Hengwen and Li Junda were not worthy. Although they didn't have a deep relationship, he still saw that both of them were honest and conscientious readers, and they couldn't compare to He Shuming's sleek sophistication in the officialdom, and now they really suffered a loss.
"Your Highness." It was still Li Junda's sharp eyes, and when he saw the wind coming in without a trace, he hurriedly pulled Fan Hengwen and saluted.
Feng Wuxian bowed his head slightly in reply, and sat down first after casually saying hello. At that moment, there was a small servant who led the two of them to sit down and served fragrant tea again, while Mingjue and Xiao Fangzi stood behind Feng Wuzi on the left and right.
Li Junda didn't mean to speak first when he saw that the wind was without a trace, so he could only say curtly: "The two officials took the liberty to come here today, and they specially came to thank them. If His Highness hadn't stopped Hengwen a few days ago, according to his temper, I'm afraid there would have been a big incident, and it would have been a great trouble. ”
Seeing Li Junda's embarrassed appearance, Feng Wuxian knew that this person was similar to Fan Hengwen, and he was also a person who was not good at coping, so he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. "You don't have to be polite, this king and you are also fated, so naturally you can't watch Lord Fan ruin his good future in vain."
As soon as Lord Fan came out, Fan Hengwen couldn't sit still, and got up with a deep sigh, "Your Highness has a heavenly and generous kindness to your subordinates, and this adult can't afford to be a big man, please call Hengwen directly." Since the great change, except for Brother Junda, among his colleagues, he has walked around the lower officials like a plague god, which is really frustrating. If His Royal Highness hadn't stopped him that day, after a big fuss, he would have resigned and returned to his hometown to support his parents, and he would not have bothered to suffer this idleness. ”
Li Junda immediately panicked, who expected Feng Wuxian to react faster than him, "What are you talking about?" If you want to resign and go into hiding after a little setback, isn't it putting the court in injustice? Even if He Shuming is heinous and the hundreds of officials in the court ignore this matter, you can't have resentment because of this. If you spread it, not only will you be impeached by the imperial history, but you will also be affected by your friend, and even the king will not be able to get rid of it. Fan Hengwen, you often act too recklessly, no wonder you will be deceived by He Shuming's villain who is different inside and out! Sit down for this king! ”
Feng Wuxian is really on fire, although Fan Hengwen is not suitable for the center of the imperial court, but if he is put in the place, even if it is difficult to be promoted, mixing a county order can always benefit the people, why bother to abandon the official for He Shuming. I pay attention to this person again and again, that is, for his simple heart, otherwise it doesn't matter what he does.
Fan Hengwen suddenly felt that his face was red and white, but he didn't expect this. Impulsiveness is the evaluation given by the teacher back then, I thought that I could get rid of this temper after more than ten years of studying, but it turned out to be more and more serious. He peeked at Li Junda, he already deeply regretted his Meng Lang, if he really affected this friend who had always taken care of him as Feng Wuxian said, he would be dead.
Feng Wuxian saw that the two of them were calmer, and immediately persuaded again: "Since the two of you have broken with He Shuming, you don't have to worry about it anymore, it will be useless to go on like this." For this matter, the two of you have already offended Master Tang, the head of the Hanlin Academy, and you will definitely be ignored in the Hanlin Academy in the future. According to the king's opinion, it is better for you to be a foreign official. ”
Fan Hengwen and Li Junda were moved in their hearts, Feng Wuxian was so sincere to them as a prince, which neither of them expected in advance. Li Junda immediately got up and said, "Thank you Your Highness for reminding me, we also have this intention." It's just that it's not easy to release foreign officials, two days ago, the officials went to the ministry to inquire, and there are not a few people waiting for the vacancy in the past two years, and it is even more difficult to get a county order that is really lacking. Both of us were people who had no way out and couldn't go to camp, so we had to dismiss this idea. ”
"The officials are there, and this king will say hello to the two of you." Seeing the overjoyed appearance of the two, Feng Wuxian couldn't help but smile slightly, "But you can't all count on this king, you can also go to the ministry to walk around and liven up people." If there is good news, the king will send to inform you. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace." At this time, the two of them bowed happily and convincingly, "Your Highness's kindness, the lower officials must remember it." ”
Feng Wuxian personally helped the two of them up, "This king doesn't want you to repay anything, just do more practical things for the people in office, and suffer less infamy." If you do anything that is sorry for your conscience, this king will not be the first to spare you. ”
Fan Hengwen and Li Junda said yes in a row, and talked about some other things, and after seeing that Feng Wuxian was a little tired, the two of them took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.
As soon as the two of them left, Feng Wuxian immediately rushed to the small study again, lamenting his hard work in his heart. Xiao Fangzi was a little puzzled, and finally couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, why didn't you recruit those two people?" The minions looked at how grateful they were to His Highness, and if His Highness hinted at something, they should know what you meant. ”
Although there is a law that eunuchs cannot interfere in politics, firstly, there is only one person around, and secondly, Feng Wuxian also has a little connivance with Xiao Fangzi, so he does not think it is a pestle.
"Xiao Fangzi, you have to remember that solicitation depends on people. I am only the prince of the county now, and I am not the crown prince, nerds like Fan Hengwen and Li Junda, who have read the books of sages and sages, are embarrassed once they speak out, and they have the meaning of coercing favor and hope to repay them, but they fall behind. Only by helping them like now, firstly, it will not attract taboos, and secondly, they will not have a pimple in their hearts, and you will still worry that they will forget my kindness in the future? These two are definitely not that kind of people, so I can rest assured that I will have a friendship with them, if I change to the kind of person He Shuming, I don't know when I will bite someone, fortunately I didn't pay attention to his stammering at the beginning. ”
Xiao Fangzi realized after listening to it, he was a very smart person, and Feng Wuxian let him read some words from time to time, so he could also understand seven or eight points of this kind of truth, and he was just a bunch of welcome words and threw it away. "The servant said, why is His Highness so polite to them, and he is a person who dares to be affectionate. How can the minion's little insight be as good as a star and a half of His Highness, and in the future, he will have to train and train the slave more when he is free. ”
Seeing him pretending to be pitiful, Feng Wuxian couldn't help but laugh, and the fatigue of rushing back and forth was much less. Among these subordinates in the house, only Xiao Fangzi dared to joke with himself like this. Alas, everything is good, but there are too few words, it is simply a pity for words, he suddenly turned his head to look at the cold man behind him, and sighed heavily, which made the hell inexplicable.
"Without a trace, I came to see you with my eyes, you are good, enough to leave me in this study for nearly an hour." As soon as Feng Wufang saw the main man appear, he immediately stood up, his face full of ill intentions, "Say, are you fooling me?" Knowing that I don't like these dancing and ink stuff, he threw me here and asked me to say that the martial arts field is almost the same. No, you have to make it up to me today, or I'll be here tonight!" ”
For this cousin who has always played cards out of common sense, Feng Wuxian always has a feeling of powerlessness. Originally, this royal family who returned to the capital should be a little more restrained, but he didn't, he seemed to forget that not long ago he was still a general who guarded Fujian, and he mixed with several royal family disciples all day long, and he almost degenerated into the same as them. Although he knew that Feng Wufang was making a show to the emperor, Feng Wufang still couldn't accept it.
"Brother Wufang, you say, what compensation do you want, as long as it is within my ability, I will definitely satisfy you." The words came out of Feng Wuxi's mouth, and it was a rare weakness, and Xiao Fangzi quietly rolled his eyes when he heard it.
"It's very simple, do you know the Zuixiang Building and Yiqing Garden in the capital?" Feng Wufang smiled mysteriously, "You can just invite me once." ”
