Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Gathering of Six (Part II)

When Wang Hua came to Xie Qian's mansion with his son, the latter had already brought his son Xie Pi out early. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

It is said that with Wang Hua's current identity and status, he is far inferior to Xie Qian, and he really doesn't deserve such a big gift. However, with the relationship between Wang Xie and the two families for generations, the two are fellow villagers and friends, so it is not a strange thing to behave like this.

Xie Qian bowed and said, "Brother Dehui, please." ”

"Brother Yu Qiao is polite." Wang Hua smiled and arched his hand, and pointed to his son again, "This is the dog Shouren, I haven't seen your Uncle Xie soon." ”

Wang Shouren was neither humble nor arrogant, "Shouren has seen my uncle!" ”

Seeing this, Xie Qian bowed slightly, and said with emotion, "After thinking about it for so many years, I almost can't recognize you." After so many years in the capital, I haven't seen you come to visit your uncle, don't you dislike the old man for not taking care of you? ”

Wang Shouren hurriedly said, "Shouren doesn't dare, he just doesn't dare to disturb his uncle." ”

"What's there to bother and not to bother, as long as we sit up straight, what's the point of other people's slander?" Xie Qian also guessed the thoughts of Wang Hua's father and son, obviously they have rarely visited in recent years, but they also have the meaning of avoiding suspicion.

"Uncle taught me a lesson!" Wang Shouren replied respectfully.

Xie Qian nodded, turned back to his son behind him and ordered, "Pi'er, don't you want to see your Uncle Wang and your Brother Wang." ”

Xie Pi on the side arched his hand and said, "Pi has seen my uncle, Brother Wang." ”

"Virtuous nephew doesn't need to be polite, I haven't congratulated you on winning the position of Tanhua in this year's imperial examination high school in one fell swoop." Wang Hua praised it.

Xie Pi smiled and said humbly, "In front of you, uncle, this Tanhua is just a small one, and I am really ashamed of myself." ”

Wang Hua said, "The virtuous nephew is too humble. ”

"If you have something to say, let's go inside, Brother Dehui and the virtuous nephew, please come in. If it is seen, it must be said that the old man is not considerate. Xie Qian smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

"Please!"

"Please!"

Xie Qian and Wang Hua entered together in mutual humility, Wang Shouren and Xie Pi glanced at each other, and followed closely behind.

In the front hall, Xie Qian and Wang Hua sat down one after another, while Wang Shouren and Xie Pi stood behind their father.

"Don't hide it from Brother Qiao, I already plan to resign and return to my hometown. However, before leaving, he still couldn't rest assured about the dog, so he cheekily hoped that the virtuous brother could take care of him in the court. Wang Hua didn't talk nonsense, and directly said his intention.

Xie Qian was taken aback, looked at Wang Hua and asked a little puzzled, "Why is Brother Dehui like this?" ”

Wang Hua couldn't help but sigh, "Since the death of the first emperor, the situation in the court has become more and more unclear to me. And he is over sixty years old, and he doesn't want to get involved in the rights and wrongs anymore, so he wants to resign from the office. ”

Xie Qian was also silent when he heard this, not to mention Wang Hua about the situation in the imperial court, even he couldn't understand it.

The Ouchi Security Bureau and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were established, and the 24 Yamen were merged into 8 Yamen. Then the Jinyiwei was changed to the Daming Military Intelligence Bureau, the Dongchang was changed to the Daming National Security Bureau, and the pro-army and the Beijing army were reorganized. Mandatory Retirement Scheme......

The emperor's series of actions are dazzling, and no one knows what the emperor is going to do now. And most of these things are the royal family's own affairs, and there is no transgression, and the civil and military officials of the imperial court have no chance to interfere, and in the end they can only passively accept it.

Thinking of this, Xie Qian also looked depressed.

However, he still did not give up and said, "This time the retirement plan is implemented, and most of the old ministers in the DPRK and China will retire." And it is the opportunity for the court to employ people, how can Brother Dehui be so disregarding the overall situation, only for his own selfish interests and abandon the emperor and the court? ”

"This ......" Wang Hua was also a little hesitant for a while when he heard this, "Kehua is over sixty years old, not to mention whether he can stay is still a question." Even if you stay in the DPRK and China for a few years, what can the people of the world do? ”

"Brother Shi, don't say frustrating words, with your talent, as long as you stay in the court for a day, you can always do something for the people of the world, it just depends on whether you have the heart."

Seeing that Wang Hua was still hesitant, Xie Qian also directly put down a cruel sentence, "If Brother Dehan insists on doing this, even if Qian misunderstands you, I don't have a selfish friend like you, and I will never communicate with each other." ”

Xie Qian is also a rectum, and he will say whatever comes to mind.

Wang Hua was also shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly got up and arched his hand, "It's Hua who is confused, just stay, Brother Yu Qiaoxian don't want to be like this." ”

"Brother, please take a seat."

After Wang Hua sat down, Xie Qian sighed lightly, "Don't blame Mou for talking too much, it's just that this time Your Majesty has come up with a retirement plan, and most of the old ministers in the court will disperse after next year." Although you tried your best to stop it, you couldn't do it, and you felt that it was difficult to support it alone, so I hope you can stay and help maintain the overall situation of the court. ”

"Listening to the virtuous brother today, I am deeply ashamed!" Hearing his words, Wang Hua also sighed, deeply grateful for the difficulty of moving. If you always want to leave when you encounter something, but you never think that the talent who stays is the most valuable.

"I'm idle today, why don't you and I go to visit Mr. Zhenze together?" Xie Qian suddenly said to Wang Hua.

"Mr. Zhenze has returned to Beijing?" Wang Shouren subconsciously asked, but then asked. If he hadn't returned to Beijing, how could Xie Qian rush to visit?

Then he nodded approvingly, "Mr. Zhenze is a great Confucian in the world, and he should visit." ”

"Speaking of which, this time the imperial court is preparing to elect people to the cabinet, and only Mr. Zhenze is alone." Xie Qian revealed another fact.

Wang Hua hesitated a little and said, "Is it wrong to visit at this time?" ”

Xie Qian glanced back at him and said with a smile, "Is Brother Dehui afraid of other people's gossip and doesn't dare to go?" ”

Facing the former's somewhat playful eyes, Wang Hua also knew that if he refused again, wouldn't he be suspected of being famous?

He had no choice but to agree.

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, please go back, my family is not feeling well today, and it is inconvenient to entertain guests."

In front of Wang Wei's mansion, a butler-like person stopped in front of the door, stopping the officials holding gifts in front of them.

"It's all a group of people who tend to be inflammatory!" Yang Tinghe got down from his official sedan chair, looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but say.

"Well said!" A cheer came from the side.

Yang Tinghe looked back, but found that it was Xie Qian Xie Ge Lao, and hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Xia Guan has seen Xie Ge Lao." ”

"You're also here to visit Mr. Zhenze?" Xie Qian asked, quite questioning.

Yang Tinghe pointed to Yan Song on the side, and said with a smile, "This is Yan Song, a protΓ©gΓ© of Xiaguan, because the poems he wrote are quite popular with Mr. Zhenze, so he brought him to visit, but I didn't expect to see this scene in front of me." ”

"Oh?" Xie Qian looked at Yan Song on the side with some surprise, wasn't this the scholar of the Hanlin Academy who was appointed by the emperor as the Ming National Security Bureau?

This person can be appreciated by Wang Shouxi, I think he must be extraordinary, but it's a pity that he is in charge of that kind of filthy place, it's a pity.

"Xiaguan has seen the Pavilion Boss."

Xie Qian nodded, but didn't say much.

Xie Pi, who was following him, took the initiative to salute Yang Tinghe, "Student Xie Pi has seen the teacher. ”

Xie Pi and Yan Song are both new science and technology scholars this year, and the chief examiner of the examination at that time was Yang Tinghe. According to the unspoken rules of the ancient imperial examination, the jinshi or juren who won the middle school called the examiner who admitted him as a teacher or a seat teacher, which is why the two called Yang Tinghe so.

However, this time the examination was originally scheduled to be the main examination of Wang Wei, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, and it was when the latter's father was mourning and returning home to keep filial piety, so Yang Tinghe was the main exam, which is why Xie Qian would bring Xie Pi to see Wang Wei.

"With your father taking care of the court, my master can't help you too much in the court." Yang Tinghe said with a smile.

Xie Pi said, "The master smiled. ”

Xie Qian also followed up and said, "Since Yang Chunfang is Wu'er's master, everything will naturally be entrusted to you, and the old man can't take care of it much." ”

Yang Tinghe was about to say something, when he saw another person coming down from another official sedan chair.

"I've seen Yang Chunfang." At this time, Wang Hua also got down from another official sedan chair, and saw that it was Yang Tinghe who hurriedly came over to say hello.

Although Yang Tinghe and Wang Hua are not too familiar, they are still acquainted, and he arched his hand and said, "The lower official has seen Lord Shilang." ”

"What waiters don't wait, you and I can have fellowship with each other." Wang Hua said quite politely. Although he is already the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites and the Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, he is a member of the three grades of the court. However, he was one subject later than Yang Tinghe, and his age was thirteen years older than the former. Regardless of the identity of the emperor, whether it is character, talent or prestige, it is also worthy of his treatment.

Yang Tinghe insisted, "The court's etiquette cannot be abolished. ”

Now that he has to say this, Wang Hua can't say anything more. introduced Wang Shouren, who was following him, to Yang Tinghe, "This is Wang Shouren, the son of a certain person." ”

Wang Shouren said respectfully, "I've seen Lord Zuo Chunfang. ”

"The virtuous nephew really looks like a talent, and he deserves to be a young man who was famous in Beijing back then." Yang Tinghe praised it.

This is not true, Wang Shouren went to Beijing to take the exam and was also a famous Beijing teacher, and was considered to have the best talent. Although he failed to pass the Jinshi examination at the age of 22, Li Dongyang, the first assistant of the cabinet, smiled at him and said: "Although you did not win the champion this time, you will definitely win the champion in the next imperial examination, and try to make a champion for the next imperial examination." Wang Shouren picked up the pen and finished it, and the elders in the court were amazed at his natural talent. Perhaps it was also because of his reputation that he failed many times in the future, although he was still in the imperial examination high school, he was not the champion and the first, and gradually lost his fame.

Perhaps to the narrow-minded people, this is a bit ironic. However, after the ups and downs of these years, Wang Shouren's mentality has already become much calmer. Said respectfully, "Lord Yang praised it falsely. ”

"Since we are destined to meet here today, and Mr. Zhenze refuses to meet guests, why don't we find a place to sit down and have a drink?"

Hearing Yang Tinghe's proposal, Xie Qian glanced at the officials who were surrounded by the door of Wang Wei's mansion and nodded, "It's okay, I don't know what Brother Dehui wants?" ”

Wang Hua naturally had no opinion, so he agreed.

The six of them found a restaurant not far away, and the three court officials sat together and chatted, chatting about the current situation in the court, and their feelings were even more enhanced. The other three young people sat on the other side, talking more about poetry and songs, but they were more familiar with each other.

Of course, no one will know that these people will form a force to be reckoned with in the court in the future, which is completely unignorant. Especially within the military, it is even more frightening and unsettling.
