Chapter 361: Some People Are Happy and Some Are Worried
Jing hurriedly smiled and said, "Brother Meng, you probably heard it wrong, how can I be a saint today?" If it were the Holy One today, would you still be able to sit here side by side with me? Do you still dare to hook up with me and say nothing? ”
Meng Tianchu snickered secretly, what I want is your words, it is you who said that you are not the emperor, then I will be able to speak.
Jiajing said: "If I asked you, I went to rest." ”
Meng Tianchu nodded, walked to Jiajing's side, and whispered: "Mu Gongzi knows what I do, I actually don't like to be an official, but if the emperor really gives me a chance to serve the court, I hope to do what I like to do." ”
Jiajing smiled and said, "Are you addicted to being a master?" ”
Zuo Jiayin hurriedly said: "Xianggong means that he can still continue to punish the evil and solve his case." ”
Jiajing smiled and said, "I see, this is easy to do!" I'd like to hear Brother Meng's thoughts, do you think what kind of official you are doing now can make you handy and comfortable? Anyway, you and I are laughing in private, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”
Meng Tianchu patted Jiajing's shoulder and said, "The squire of the Criminal Department." ”
Except for Jiajing, everyone else in this room was frightened, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears, or Meng Tianchu had some kind of drunken illness and said crazy things.
Jiajing said: "Why isn't it the book of the Criminal Department?" That's the biggest official in the Criminal Department! ”
Meng Tianchu said: "Hahaha, what Mu Gongzi said is true. But I think I still need some time to sharpen before I can take on the heavy responsibility of being the leader of the criminal department, human life is greater than the sky, what does Mu Gongzi think? ”
Jiajing smiled, stood up, walked to Yan Song's side, and said, "Yan Aiqing, how old are you to enter the court, how old are you, and at what age did you sit in your current position?" ”
Yan Song hurriedly replied: "When the minister was twenty-five years old, he endured the Jishi of the Hanlin Academy. At the age of thirty-eight, he recognized the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, and at the age of sixty, he entered the cabinet as a scholar of Wuyingdian University. ”
Meng Tianchu thought to himself, it's very well maintained, I thought you were only fifty years old. It turns out that you, Yan Song, are about to retire before you get on an errand as a scholar of Wuyingdian University, but it's also rare.
Jiajing walked to Meng Tianchu's side, smiled and patted Meng Tianchu's shoulder, seeing that Meng Tianchu was still drunk. Then he said, "Come on, pull this drunk out and wake me up." ”
When Zuo Jiayin heard it, they were so frightened that they didn't know why. Before Meng Tianchu came back to his senses, he was dragged out of the door by two people. Jiajing said to Yan Song: "You go and take a look." It's good to wake up. Those eunuchs didn't have a doorkeeper in their hands. ”
When Yan Song heard this, he knew that the emperor did not want to punish Meng Tianchu. quickly got up and chased out, and Zuo Jiayin and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, Meng Tianchu was supported back by the two eunuchs, and this posture was much more respectful and pleasing to the eye than the previous one.
Yan Song had already explained to Meng Tianchu outside the door before, Yan Song saw that Jiajing seemed to have the intention to promote Meng Tianchu, so naturally his attitude towards Meng Tianchu was also good, first carefully admonished a few words, and then repeatedly explained some things that Jiajing taboo and disgusted, as the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other, since the emperor has the intention to reuse Meng Tianchu, Yan Song did not hurry to pull Meng Tianchu to his side.
Meng Tianchu didn't look at Jiajing's face when he entered the door, he knelt directly on the ground, and shouted three times: "Long live my emperor" and then said something like "grass people should die" is reluctant to slap his face, that is Yan Songjiao, he is useless, he is not afraid of pain, but feels contrived.
Jiajing smiled: "Flatten, what?" , is the wine sober? ”
Where did Meng Tianchu dare to get up when he said it, Yan Song reminded him that it was best to get up when the Lord Wansui asked again. Thinking of this, he hurriedly said respectfully: "Back to Long Live Lord's words, the grass people are guilty, and they shouldn't drink and gossip." ”
Jiajing laughed and said, "Don't blame those who don't know! I think you're funny! ”
Guy? Meng Tianchu knelt on the ground, wet and wet, but fortunately, it was cool in summer, what is a guy? This Jiajing actually called himself a guy?
Jiajing continued: "Do you remember what you said when you were drunk just now? ”
Meng Tianchu: "The grass people should die, the grass people don't know that they are talking to the Long Live Lord, they said some arrogant things, and they ask the Long Live Lord to surrender their crimes." ”
Jiajing: "Why are you still kneeling, get up, don't kneel and talk, everyone get up, kneeling is tired and panicking, the widow has something to say." ”
Meng Tianchu responded with everyone.
Jiajing said: "Don't say anything about sin, I think you are still drunk and interesting, and when you wake up, you will be no different from Yan Song and these people." ”
Yan Song smiled awkwardly on the side.
Jiajing said: "I remember what you said, but your words reminded me, I think since you have the heart to serve my Daming mountains and rivers, then the widow should not give you Meng Tianchu this opportunity." ”
Speaking of this, Jiajing looked at Meng Tianchu slyly, and saw that there was no joy on Meng Tianchu's face, and he was still a little relieved in his heart, it seems that this Meng Tianchu is really not a person who is greedy for utilitarianism. Then he continued: "But you said that the servant of the criminal department, I think it will be placed for the time being, I will give you other errands for you to be responsible for, if you give me to you and you have done this errand now, and then think about the affairs of the criminal department, what do you think?" ”
Meng Tianchu thought he had heard it wrong, why did this long-lived master really want to be an official for himself?
Meng Tianchu was in a daze, only to see Yan Song take a step forward and stab himself in the waist in the back, he suddenly understood, and quickly knelt down, Jiajing thought that Meng Tianchu wanted to thank him, who thought that Meng Tianchu knelt down and said: "Thank you Long Live Lord Longen, it's just that Meng Tianchu has no intention of being an official, moreover..."
When Yan Song heard this, he realized that the emperor couldn't drag you to the official, so he hurriedly said: "Long live Lord, I think Meng Tianchu is happy and I don't know what to say." ”
Jiajing laughed loudly and said, "Yan Aiqing, look at you."
Sophisticated. It's not too late for you to wait for Meng Tianchu to finish speaking and then round the field for him, but now you wait for him to finish speaking. ”
Meng Tianchu looked at Zuo Jiayin and Xia Fengyi and gentleness, and saw that the three of them were looking at him with encouraging eyes, gritted his teeth, and thought that he was the most unrestrained person, and he should never be an official again. Think about it, it's better not to be an official, and stay at home, how good. Then he said: "The grass people have not gone through the imperial examinations such as the township examinations and the palace examinations, if they are officials. I'm afraid I won't be able to convince the public in the future, so..."
Jiajing: "This is purely your Meng Tianchu's excuse!" Do you think that my Jiajing really only knows how to travel in the mountains and rivers? Okay, what if I force you to take the imperial examination? Well, if you want to convince the people. I'll give you a chance to take the test of the eight shares you hate the most, I'll give you three chances, if you don't win three times, I'll kill your Meng Tianchu family. So, don't take any chances, thinking that if you don't win, you can continue to live your peaceful life at home. I wanted you to be the patrol of the eight mansions sent by the widow directly. But you find such an excuse. Yes, that's great! ”
Meng Tianchu listened. My scalp was tingling and my mind was blank, wasn't it? Imperial examination? And still had to hit? It's better to just look at yourself.
Jiajing saw Meng Tianchu's face pale and collapsed to the ground, and he was secretly happy in his heart, haha, didn't you Meng Tianchu hook up with the widow just now and call him a brother? I'll take what you're most afraid of to make it difficult for you, thinking of this, Jiajing couldn't help but show a smug smile.
Jiajing said: "Okay, the widow is also tired, and the Heavenly Master should also rest, so let's retreat." After speaking, Jiajing glanced sideways at Meng Tianchu, then laughed dryly, strode out, and only heard a voice behind him say, "Long live the lord." ”
"That's it, that's it, Meng Tianchu, remember to be good, do you understand when you smell the chicken? Be sure to work hard. ”
This voice has been echoing in Meng Tianchu's ears, and it can't be dispersed for a long time...
In the past few days, Meng Tianchudi's house has a large group of people living every day, and the surrounding neighbors are talking in private, what kind of dignitaries and nobles need to serve and serve like that, sometimes the courtyard is singing and dancing, sometimes the courtyard is silent, and even the children's cries seem to be less, I saw that there are a lot of raw seafood being pulled in every day, and the servants and maids are busy with joy, and there are many unfamiliar ground faces, all of which are very silent, except for a very serious "bamboo pole" and a moody fat man.
Meng Tianchu didn't see anyone, it was presumed that he was reading a book, but he was actually hiding in the study and sleeping, the pile of books was even higher than Meng Tianchu's own, exuding a smell that made Meng Tianchu almost nauseous and suffocating, but he would rather be like this than go out to accompany the crazy Long Live Lord, fortunately, Yan Song still defended himself and excused himself everywhere, and most of the time during the day he would take Jiajing out to visit the mountains and rivers, but that Jiajing was bound to come back as soon as the sun came down, that formation, really! The sound of horses' hooves can be heard a mile away, and what is the private interview of the micro-service, it is as majestic as the reflexive power of the landlord bully.
Meng Tianchu thought, why didn't Ke Gan, Cheng Ziyi, and Song Yuanqiao, who were so good at slapping horses, come to pick up Jiajing? That Jiajing seemed to be very comfortable staying in Meng Tianchu's house for a day, building a pavilion in the back garden for a while, and letting people transport some tea trees from Yunnan for a while, just because Zuo Jiayin wrote: "The poet of the scenery praised when he saw it, and he couldn't pity Gao Yun for saying black tea." ”
That's fine, the day before yesterday, I found a feng shui gentleman to look at the house, saying that if the house is extended to the east for another hundred acres, then the house is either the prime minister or the general, Jiajing believed, so the next day, when Meng Tianchu was still asleep, he heard a roaring sound, thinking it was a hallucination, and when he opened the door, it turned out that the east wall of the house was pushed to.
Meng Tianchu was depressed, seeing Yan Song coming leisurely from a distance, he hurriedly closed the door, although Yan Song was old, his eyes were bright, and he hurriedly shouted: "Meng Tianchu, don't close the door and hide from me."
With all the words said and done, Meng Tianchu had no choice but to open the door again and salute with a wry smile.
Yan Song walked up to Meng Tianchu, looked at the books in the study, and said with a weird smile: "Are you going to be that ascetic?" I really have to study hard! ”
Meng Tianchu let Yan Song into the house, closed the door, the outside was in full swing, and the inner courtyard was also full of dust.
Meng Tianchu: "Lord Yan, look, if I don't read it, will it be in the near future, at three o'clock in the afternoon of a certain day in a certain year and month, it will be related to me, Meng Tianchu and the Meng family?" ”
Yan Song laughed a few times, put his thin hand on Meng Tianchu's shoulder, and whispered: "Little nephew Tianchu, those who are ministers should be loyal, but they can't be foolish and loyal, understand?" You make this pitiful appearance, that is, pretend to show me, so that I can say that you Meng Tianchu are diligent in front of the Long Live Lord! ”
Meng Tianchu said in his heart, just you, an old fox, are smart.
Yan Song: "Don't say in your heart that I'm not." ”
Meng Tianchu hurriedly smiled and said, "How is it possible? The grass people didn't dare. ”
Yan Song walked to the chair and took a copy of "The Mean" casually: "Zi Si recounts the meaning of the words to make a statement: the origin of the first clear way is from heaven and cannot be easy, its entity is prepared for oneself and cannot be separated, the second word is the key to preservation and inspection, and the final word is the ultimate of the Holy Spirit. In this way, the scholar wants to seek the self-satisfaction of the body, so as to remove the selfishness of the husband and seduc, and fill it with its natural goodness. ”
Meng Tianchu hurriedly stopped and said, "Lord Yan, you still go out for a walk with Wan Sui Ye, it's too chaotic and noisy here, and it's not good for you and Wan Sui Ye's noble body." ”
Yan Song ignored it and said, "Do you know whose mouth I said just now?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "Zhu Xi"
Yan Song smiled and said, "The child can be taught, but I advise you to put down your books, go out and have a look, and don't think about anything." You can't finish a book, you know? ”
