The ten-day marriage leave except for the time to prepare for the head, Du Shiyi and Wang Rong can really live together after marriage, that is, in just three or four days. It is impossible to sail on the Qujiang River in Layue, and with the Yu Nu by his side all day long, they have to be extra vigilant even if they get closer. Fortunately, the day before he planned to return to Zhongshu Province on leave, Yunu's second uncle Yang Xuanqi finally came to the door.

Unlike Yang Xuanyan, Yang Xuanqi looks more bookish, his demeanor is calm and elegant, and he looks like he has a good temperament at the age of his early forties. Although he is nearly twice as old as Du Shiyi, because the jade slave calls Du Shiyi a master, Du Shiyi's official position is above him, and he is an equal. After sitting down and saying a few words, he heard a sound of footsteps, and saw the curtain of the door behind him, and when he looked again, it was a young woman in costume holding the hand of the jade slave and came out. With just a glance, he knew that it must be Du Shiyi's newlywed wife, the Wang family girl.

There is a lot of discussion among the people about this marriage of the Son of Heaven, and the same is true in the officialdom. Among them, the most criticized is the door. However, at this moment, his first impression of Wang Rong was that he was down-to-earth and generous, not at all like he came from a humble businessman's family. When the jade slave came to him, he didn't react, and it was only when his niece tugged at the corner of his clothes and begged that he came back to his senses.

"Second uncle, let me stay with my master and my wife for two more days, okay? It's so easy for me to come out once, just go back to Shuzhong, and I don't know when I will be able to zaijian them in the future. ”

The reason why Yang Xuanqi dared to leave the jade slave behind was that he was sure that Du Shiyi had just been given marriage, plus Su Ri had never heard of anything unclear with other girls, and the jade slave was not yet ten years old. But the most important thing is that he knows that Du Shiyi has a wide range of contacts and has many dignitaries, and if he is willing to come forward in the future, he may be able to find a good family for his niece. But at this moment, the marriage is completed, and Yu Nu doesn't want to leave, he can't help but have a headache, hesitates for a moment and then puts his face on a straight face and says: "Didn't you think about your grandfather the most in the past, did you forget your filial piety when you came out this time?" ”

"No, I haven't forgotten that I'm reluctant to give up grandpa, but I'm ...... I am not willing to let the master and the master ......"

The jade slave was stunned for a while. And Du Shiyi saw that Yang Xuanqi was in a hurry, obviously he didn't know how to deal with the little girl's tears, so he instructed Wang Rong to go forward, seeing that she pulled the little guy to the side and comforted softly, and took a handkerchief from his arms and wiped her slowly, he smiled and said: "Yu Nu is really temperamental, please Brother Yang don't blame her." However, now that the weather is cold and freezing, it is not suitable to leave for Shuzhong, so let's wait for the spring to start in March before sending her away. Yunu, don't cry, you are a member of the Yang family, so naturally you should live in your second uncle's house, if your sister and I miss you, we will naturally let Bao'er pick you up. ”

"Really, really let Senior Brother Bao'er pick me up?" Yunu was still sobbing, but when she heard this, she immediately stammered and asked, and after receiving Du Shiyi's nodding affirmative answer, she immediately burst into tears and laughed, and retreated behind Yang Xuanqi without saying anything.

Seeing that the most troublesome niece was finally settled, Yang Xuanqi breathed a sigh of relief, and when Du Shiyi asked the maid to come up with another box, saying that it was a New Year's gift to Yunu in advance, he excused himself and accepted it, and then left after a while. But when he returned home all the way, he opened the box and saw that there was a full set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and even if the inkstone was placed in the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, it was also a treasure worth more than a thousand times, and he couldn't help but take a breath for it.

Seeing that the jade slave cheered and hugged him in his arms and returned to the room, he couldn't help but stay for a while, and then ordered someone to summon his son Yang Yu, who came back from Shuzhong this time.

"Qilang, you have dealt with Du Jiulang so many times in Chengdu, do you think he really treats Yunu as a disciple?"

Coming back all the way, Yang Xuan didn't know how many times his father had asked about Du Shiyi, and when he heard his father ask like this, he couldn't help but be surprised at first, and then thought hard for a while, and finally whispered: "Speaking of grandpa, I don't believe it, but I think that I don't just regard it as a disciple, but as a daughter...... Anyway, when he was in Chengdu, he was decisive and ruthless, but he was quite tolerant of Yunu, and it can even be said that he was obedient. The jade slave came and went to learn the pipa under his disciples, which is also famous in Chengdu officialdom, I heard that the uncle was able to get the position of Sima in Yazhou, also because of Du Jiulang's recommendation? ”

"That's right, but he's really nice to Yunu...... Forget it, don't think so much. You look at Dian Yuyao, she's too restless, don't let her take Yunu to do strange things"

At the end of the fifteenth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, Song Jing, who was also the secretary of the Ministry of Officials at the beginning of the year, was not really in charge of the election affairs. In fact, since the beginning of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the official department has been more of a representative of the grade, and the specific selection matters are all in charge of the official department. This year, Qi Chao, the governor of the Ministry of Governors, entered the pivotal point step by step from the Zhongshu Sheren who knew the system, and won the trust of the Son of Heaven, and he was also very good at making trade-offs according to the difficulty of the invitation, whether the person who asked for it was purely selfish or out of love, so as to achieve general fairness.

Therefore, less than a year after Wang Changling was awarded the secretary of the provincial school secretary Lang after the Jinshi and the first official department, Wang Jin was awarded the orthography of the Jixian Hall because of the system and the first award, Du Anzhi was the captain of Wucheng in Huzhou, and Lu Cong was recommended by Yuan Sheng, the assassin of Suzhou, to worship the county lieutenant of Wu, these personnel changes are not very conspicuous in the vast sea of selection.

But in the eyes of people with intentions such as Wang Maozhong, this is simply a typical example of forming a party for personal gain. Jiang Jiao is dead, although there are Song Jing who is at the top of the civil and military ranks like Song Jing and Sansi, but the Son of Heaven is only respectful, and has no intimacy, but he must attend all the banquets, and if he does not attend, the Son of Heaven will not be happy, this kind of Xuan He has been maintained for many years, which is enough to ⊥ him feel that he can go further.

Therefore, on this day, he returned to his home from the Beiyaguan Mansion, and when he saw his eldest son Wang Shouzhen come to him to salute and greet him, he squinted his eyes and coldly left a sentence: "Are you a young master of Honglu Temple who deserves to be very happy?" ”

Nearly eight years have passed since the events of that year, although Wang Shouzhen hates Du Shiyi, but he is not like Liu Ximing, who was once exiled to a place with high mountains and steep roads in Hengzhou, and his official position is rising with his father's momentum, so naturally he will not jump off the wall like Liu Ximing. Although he, the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple from the fourth grade, is only an official and does not do anything, but as the eldest son of Wang Maozhong, there are all kinds of honors and ranks, and he is already only one step away from the third grade. In addition, the whip of his father back then was really unforgettable, and he almost deliberately left the name Du Shiyi behind.

At this moment, in the face of his father's questioning, he couldn't help but cautiously replied: "Back to Grandpa, I have been diligent in my work recently......"

"Go and order every day, and then hang out with your fox friends and dogs, which is also called diligence?" Wang Maozhong asked angrily, seeing that Wang Shouzhen immediately bowed his head and didn't dare to speak, he couldn't help hating that iron could not become steel, and he threw down the glass cup in his hand in anger, "If you have a penny, you don't have to worry about me as a father."

Wang Shouzhen was submissive on her lips, but she was very disapprehensive in her heart. At this moment, I only heard a woman's soft voice outside: "Why did Wang Lang have such a big temper?" ”

Seeing a woman dressed in costume surrounded by maidservants like a starry moon, Wang Shouzhen hurriedly took two steps back and bowed her head to salute, and called Erniang. The person who came was Wang Maozhong's later married wife, Mrs. Huo Guo, Li, with her lower abdomen bulging high, smiled and bowed slightly at Wang Shouzhen, and then came to Wang Maozhong's side, and said with a smile: "Da Lang is now in his prime, Wang Lang should also treat him as an adult, why be so angry?" Wouldn't it be distressing to let my sister see it? ”

Although the Li family is no longer the young and beautiful age when he first married him, and he is not as beautiful as those concubines, but after all, he has the noble status of the clan, and he is more than a step higher than the background and upbringing of the Yuan match, Wang Maozhong is kind to him most of the time, not to mention that now the Li family is pregnant with Liujia again, and he is about to give birth in a blink of an eye. But this time, for the first time, he didn't give this wife a little face, and scolded: "I am a father's reprimand, I reprimand my son, I don't need you to intervene Since my body is heavy, I should take good care of it, come here, and help the second lady to rest."

Although he was treated so coldly, Li only changed color slightly and acted as if nothing happened, and went back again after confessing. And as soon as she left, Wang Maozhong looked at Wang Shouzhen and said: "I was angry and whipped you back then, because you didn't know the height of the sky, and you used the Yulin Guards in the most sensitive place like Gyeonggi without authorization, and you were dealing with the children of a family like Du Shiyi, not ordinary Hansu, but you should know that this kind of life and death enmity is not easy to end, how did the Liu family die, you know it in your own heart."

When Wang Shouzhen heard the gossip that Liu Ximing was given death, he was shocked, but Liu Jieyu favored the horse and Concubine Wu Hui in the harem, and Liu Qiwu had already suffered a setback in his career, and he couldn't reach his father Wang Maozhong's holy family Zhenglong, so he gradually forgot about it, and even secretly gloated and laughed at Du Shiyi when he was given to marry Wang Yuanbao's daughter. Now that his father is talking about the old things again, his face is blue and white, and he doesn't know what to say.

"Du Shiyi, this enemy was provoked by you, you can think about how to end it for me"

"Grandpa means ......"

"All in all, don't give me that stupid trick to think of and tell me when you think of it, don't rush into it. There is room before the move, and after the move, it is the fish that dies and the net is broken."

Seeing Wang Shouzhen quit with excitement on his face, Wang Maozhong couldn't help but feel very entangled in his heart. If he hadn't thought that Du Shiyi would be a foreign official, he wouldn't have been able to toss anything, how could he have wasted the previous three years in vain? His eldest son, no matter how you look at it, can't be used. I only hope that Du Shiyi will use Du Shiyi to sharpen Wang Shouzhen's courage and strategy this time, otherwise, I can only give up this useless eldest son
