Following the Wang Yan brothers, it was obviously a woman.

He wore a hood, and the hanging tulle obscured his face. Tightly wrapped in a half-used fox fur cloak, it hides the figure while outlining the narrow shoulders.

Han Gang was frightened by the two brothers of the Wang family, even if he didn't have eyesight, he could guess who this woman who followed the Wang Yan brothers was.

That's why he scolded in his heart, what kind of joke is this!

Han Gang is not worried about himself, but the lady who has not left the cabinet has a private meeting with a man who is not a relative, once this matter spreads, the reputation of the prime minister's daughter will be over!

The so-called 'inside and outside, male and female; Don't peep into the outer wall, don't go out of the outer court. When you go out, you must hide your face, and you must hide your face. ’

Through the etiquette of the world, women from good families cannot meet men casually. According to Sima Guang, when a woman is engaged, her father cannot enter her room, and when a sister returns to her mother's house after marriage, the brother cannot sit next to her.

Even in the open Tang Dynasty, Li Linfu asked his daughter to choose her son-in-law, and he recruited candidates to his home and let his daughter pick behind the screen. didn't say that he would let his daughter go outside the house and face her husband. In this way, Li Linfu was ridiculed as a poor family and did not know etiquette.

In the Song Dynasty, the folk customs were ten times more conservative than those of the Tang Dynasty, and the restrictions on unmarried girls were also stricter. It's not as good as Tang Shi, who can wear men's clothes and run out with a maidservant.

It's not that the women of the Song Dynasty just don't go out of the door, and the place where they should be loose is still relatively loose. In Tokyo, temples such as Daishokokuji Temple have people who burn incense and worship the Buddha, and there are many women who bow down in front of the Buddha statue.

Zeng Bu's wife, Wei, also often shows up to participate in and even organize poetry societies, which are not all-female poetry clubs, but high-level poetry societies attended by officials and scholars. Mrs. Wei even followed the poems to spread the small characters of her name, but the evaluation in the world is still very high.

But the moral requirements of the world for unmarried women and married women are completely different. It's okay for the little family Jasper, they have to help the family do things, as long as they don't flirt with the men outside, showing up will not affect their reputation at all.

But the famous ladies are different. When I go out, I usually go out in a carriage, and I have servants and maids at home to support me. When spring comes, when you go outside the city, you have to use a tent to fence it off. If you can have the courage to meet a man who has not yet decided to marry, this kind of deviant behavior will inevitably be pointed out by the world.

Fortunately, the two sons of the Wang family are not confused, and they followed together, of course, it is not a private meeting, but it is not a good thing to spread the word.

After Han Gang was stunned, he took two steps back and let the three children of the Wang family into the house. The longer the daughter of the Wang family is kept outside the door, the more likely it is that she will be exposed.

After Wang Yan entered the door, he smiled and said to Han Gang: "Yukun has been famous for a long time, but he has always been stingy. Xianyang put down the rebellion, Hehuang opened the border, and Yukun did all kinds of things, which made Wang Yan very longing. I can't think about you every day, but I don't expect to see each other today. ”

"Don't dare, Brother Yuan Ze's name is what makes Han Gang thunderous. The imperial court supported the opening of Hehuang, and also had the foresight of Brother Yuan Ze. ”

Han Gang returned the salute to Wang Yan first and humbled himself a few words. Then he said some gossip to the king that was not harmed.

The two brothers each greeted Han Gang, and the woman came to Han Gang.

"This is the sister." Wang Yan only used four short words to introduce the daughter behind them to Han Gang, I don't know if it is a kind of cover-up and stealing the bell.

Wang Anshi's second daughter blessed Han Gang and said, "Son, Wanfu." "The voice is elegant and pleasant.

Han Gang replied without asking much.

Since the Wang brothers didn't want to say anything, Han Gang wouldn't have trouble getting along with them. It doesn't hurt to pretend to be together, and it makes them feel more at ease. So he invited the three of them to sit down.

His action of inviting people was extremely natural, and Wang Yan asked people to set the position, and now it is Han Gang as the host to feast guests.

Han Gang, Wang Yan, and Wang sat around the table, while the daughter of the Wang family sat on a seat under the wall a little farther away.

The Wang brothers turned a blind eye to this, and Han Gang remained silent even more interestingly-when he finally saw the dagger, he wanted to see what tricks he was going to play.

The room was quiet for a while, and the noise next door became noisy again, pointing fingers at the major affairs of the court, the recent personnel changes in the court, and the implementation of the new law. In the words, there is also the unique arrogance of the scholars, pointing out the country, which is three points greater than the prime minister's courage, only that Yu Zhong is still stable.

"This group of crazy ......" Wang Yan shook his head, looking at his appearance, he couldn't stand the nonsense of the scholars next door, "Fang Cai's slanderous words, Yu Kun has heard it?" ”

Han Gang smiled calmly: "If a new person is in a high position, how can there be anyone who is not hated?" This is a common thing, and Han Gang has long learned not to take it seriously. The left and right are just trying to be happy, and it doesn't hurt to let them talk about it. ”

"Yukun, you're too indulgent to them." The king didn't know which way the living were angry: "Such a villain who loves to chew the root of his tongue should be dealt with severely." The sage punished the young and upright, but he didn't say that he put it down. ”

Speaking of Shao Zheng Mao, Han Gang wanted to defend Confucius: "The first sage punished Shao Zheng Mao, which is not found in the classics, but Xun Qing's concocted words, slandering the sage for thousands of years." How can it be believed to be true? ”

There are different opinions about whether Confucius killed Shao Zhengmao with the five evils. It is not recorded in the earlier "Zuo Chuan" and "Chinese", and when it first appeared, it was said by Xunzi, and then it spread. It has even been entered in the "Historical Records of the Confucius Family" and has always been believed.

It's just that now the Song people are suspicious of the ancients, and there are many comments and reversals on this matter, and Han Gang's words are not special. But Wang Yan shook his head when he heard this: "Whether it is true or not, the means of conquest and punishment should still be used when it should be used." ”

Wang Anshi's scholarship admired Mencius and did not agree with Xun Qing's views. However, Wang Anshi's book of ten thousand words of Emperor Shangshenzong had such a paragraph: "If the ancients wanted to do something, they did not try to punish them first and then get their will".

According to Wang Anshi's view expressed in this memo in his early years, in order to succeed in everything, opponents must first be eliminated. This point of view comes from Xunzi's learning.

Wang Anshi's works circulated in the world, Han Gang has basically read them. This world-famous book of 10,000 words, of course, Han Gang will not be familiar with it.

"It's just that political affairs are political affairs, and ordinary chats have to be managed, and in the future, the road will end with a goal." Han Gang let go, and the group of tribute students scolded him, and the most powerful counterattack was to be admitted to the Jinshi, and in the future, he was promoted to Zaizhi, and pressed on top of their heads.

……………………

Like an invisible person, sitting on the side, Wang Yi quietly listened to the two brothers and Han Gang talking.

Wang Yi has reached the age of nineteen, and he is not married at this age, and there are more rumors outside. Gradually, the originally lively girl has become more and more silent, in addition to reading and learning words every day, she is to accompany her mother to be a female celebrity and talk some gossip.

For Han Gang, Wang Yi couldn't say that he wasn't curious, and he still wanted to see what a chivalrous man who could draw his sword in anger looked like. It's just that today's curiosity has gradually faded, and the day before yesterday, his father asked someone to propose to Han Gang, but the other party found an excuse and perfunctory.

Although his parents still had hopes for this family business, Wang Yi could see the other party's reluctance and hidden resistance from Han Gang's delay. It's about intuition and not vision.

The day before yesterday, Wang Yan came to ask her opinion on the marriage, but Wang Yi didn't say anything else, just said that he wanted to see Han Gang in person once. Although he was rejected at the time, as the eldest brother, he still couldn't resist his sister after all, so he had to nod and agree.

It was also that they didn't think that Han Gang would refuse this family affair before agreeing, otherwise it would be impossible to nod.

But Wang Yi has something to say.

Because their sister was here, it was inconvenient for the two brothers to stay here for a long time, so they chatted for a while and then left each other. Wang Yi stood up, but did not follow the door. "The little sister has something to say to Han Gongzi, and please ask the eldest brother and the second brother to stay outside for a while."

Don't say anything indecent, talking to a man alone is even more incivil. Wang Yi's words, Wang Yan's two brothers had not heard from their sister's mouth beforehand. When they heard this, their faces changed.

Wang Yan hurriedly wanted to stop it, but after Wang Yan thought about it, he nodded, "That foolish brother will stay outside." And he took the king out of the way.

Waiting for the Wang brothers to go out, Han Gang turned to Wang Yi and said, "If the little lady has something to say, please say it directly." ”

Wang Yi walked up to Han Gang: "The little girl is nearly ten years old. The age is long, and it is the posture of the willow, which is unbearable for the king to serve the broom. In this life, I only want to serve my parents, and I have nothing else to ask for. ”

Han Gang didn't get angry, she hadn't finished her words yet, and she didn't ask for a reason, so it was not too late to get angry after listening to it first.

"But what is Han Gang's contemptible, unbearable little lady's blue eyes?"

"Han Gongzi's talent is known to the world, how can the little woman be dissatisfied? But the eldest sister married the Wu family by mistake, which made her parents worry day and night. But it is difficult for the son to deal with things, and it is difficult to be with the family. If there is a political disagreement in the future, and the parents cannot feel at ease, it is the unfilial piety of the little girl. ”

The words of the second daughter of the Wang family can be said to be frank, which surprised Han Gang. Worrying about your parents in your heart can be regarded as filial piety. But how did she know that she and Wang Anshi were not on the same road?

There were some doubts in his heart, but Han Gang had no intention of asking more, let alone defending himself. Few people are consistent in politics, and parting ways is common.

"But the little lady is wrong about this." Han Gang said to Wang Yi seriously, "There is a difference between inside and outside, how can political affairs be family affairs?" There is no distinction between inside and outside the Wu Shumi's family, it is their fault, if they think that Han Gang is the same, it is not right. ”
