Chapter 268: Li Ershao, Fighting Father
Li Rubai is twenty-six years old this year, it can be said that it is the most beautiful age in a man's life, he is seven feet long, skilled in bows and horses, and his appearance is similar to his father Li Chengliang, he is very favored by his father, and he is an outstanding man in Liaodong, and he also has some ability in writing, you know, Xu Wenchang was exiled in Jiubian after being amnesty in Yanjing, Li Chengliang admired Xu Wenchang very much, so he asked him to be the teacher of his two sons Li Rusong and Li Rubai. Li Rubai first attacked the position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and later was dismissed for drunkenness, so he took his father's hereditary position, commanded by Tielingwei, from which it can be seen that his father Li Chengliang favored him.
But in fact, he went to Jiangnan with a stomach full of anger, this guy has a very high vision, regards ordinary women as nothing, and always thinks that he Li Rubai will meet a fairy-like person one day, but at that time, Liaodong, which was a bitter cold place, really did not have a beauty, until one day, Nurhachi's half-brother Shuerhaqi took his sister Xueyueer to Ningyuan's uncle Li Chengliang.
What is going on with men and women, to be honest, countless outstanding people in ancient and modern times at home and abroad have not made it clear, but one thing is certain, sometimes, Wang Ba looks at mung beans, and when he sees the right eye, he suddenly becomes a bad fate.
Li Rubai asked his father to marry Xue Yue'er as his wife, Li Chengliang naturally refused, the female tribes at that time said that it was ugly, that is, Li Chengliang's domestic slave general, therefore, Li Rubai, who was reprimanded by Li Chengliang, was very tragic, drunk and whipped the pawn, but unfortunately, the whipping pawn was the person who supervised the army, Li Chengliang was so powerful outside the nine sides, the imperial court naturally wanted to send eunuchs to supervise the army according to the convention, so that no one could keep this Li Ershao, and he was directly dismissed, but no matter how he said it, he was also Li Chengliang's son, Don't work with the sons, in the era of fighting fathers, this is the biggest ability, and soon, he attacked the command of Tielingwei again.
Immediately, this Li Ershao appreciated all the way, and finally became the deputy chief soldier of Jizhen and the deputy position of Qi Shaobao, this position, ninety out of nine military guards for a lifetime, even two lives of father and son, grandfather and grandson, can not climb up, and Li Ershao, when he sat in this position, was only twenty-four years old.
However, a few days after he sat on the deputy chief soldier of Jizhen, the then cabinet elder Zhang Juzheng hung up, and then, Zhang Siwei came to power, a series of dazzling, and then Qi Jiguang has been impeached, and now Qi Jiguang is out, Li Chengliang thought about it, his son was in this position, and Qi Jiguang used to cover it, but as soon as Qi Jiguang left, this position was inevitably too dazzling, and he privately made money and let his son be transferred.
The person with real power in the Ministry of War got Uncle Ning Yuan's silver, to be honest, it was really overjoyed, you know, the emperor has hinted a few times, but the Ministry of War does not dare to offend Uncle Ning Yuan, you rashly dismissed the second young master of Uncle Ning Yuan's family, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of Uncle Ning Yuan in public! At this time, with Ning Yuanbo's hint, everyone was naturally happy, so Li Rubai was given the title of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and the position of deputy chief soldier of Jizhen was dismissed.
Therefore, if it weren't for Li Chengliang's fear that his son would be too dazzling and hateful, Shan Chixia would have to be controlled by Li Rubai when he took up the post of General of Jizhen.
After Li Rubai's deputy chief soldier of Jizhen was dismissed, Ning Yuanbo said, Song Shiyong searched in many ways in Nanzhili, and found a good family for you, the Wu family, which is the Wu family who polished the clairvoyant mirror in our army.
In fact, Li Ershao wanted to say to his son Li Chengliang, 'I'm afraid this is not to find a good family for me, but to find a good family for Ning Yuanbo's Mansion!' The important surname of the clairvoyant mirror is self-evident in the army, and the most important thing is that this thing is also very expensive, one costs a few hundred taels of silver, and he Ning Yuanbo is luxurious and rich, but if you want to popularize the clairvoyant mirror to your command, it is not an easy thing, and Song Shiyong in Nanjing said in a letter to Li Chengliang that the contemporary head of the Wu family is a woman, so why not ...... Marry a wife!
Such methods have been used thousands of years ago, in fact, they have always been effective, even after five hundred years, they are still being used, Li Chengliang thought about it, this is a good idea, marry Liaodong, that is my Li family.
Therefore, there is a matter of Li Chengliang ordering his son to go south to Suzhou to ask for marriage, it is said that this kind of thing will not let the parties go to do it in person, but the Li family is born as a barbarian, the first generation of Tielingwei commander is called Li Sabannu, several generations, although he has long become an unscrupulous Ming man, but there is still the brute spirit in his bones, secondly, there is also the meaning of suppressing people with power, my son Ning Yuanbo personally came to the door to ask for marriage, this face, do you Wu family give it?
Li Rubai did not dare to confront his father after all, obediently went to sea from Huludao, walked on the sea for many days, and finally, landed in Ningbo, the first thing was to prepare a generous gift and personally go to Shaoxing Mansion to meet the teacher, Mr. Qingteng Xu Wenchang.
The world thinks that Mr. Qingteng is too bad, but in fact, this guy belongs to the super literary disease, the disease has penetrated into the bone marrow and is hopeless, others come to the door to ask for paintings, he can throw the silver gifts out of the door, and scold, I can paint for you and other vulgar things. And some people with ulterior motives, figured out his spleen and stomach, so they humbly resigned to the door, first to praise him for his contribution to the extermination of the Japanese in Hu Zongxian's curtain, and then flattered Mr. Qingteng to flatteringly flutter like a fairy, and then flattered him to make friends with heroes outside the Nine Border Pass, in short, what to say, then what to say, and finally cry, oops! The late life is now down, and it is really a loss of the spirit of a scholar...... And so forth and so on.
Then, Xu Wenchang always has to be comforted, and then painted, maybe he has to seal two taels of silver to others in the end, and persuade others to go back to study hard every day.
Is such a person hopelessly ill? However, fortunately, he is still famous, and there are a few good students, such as Miss Yan Qingwei, the first lady in Zhejiang, who has three festivals this year, and there are a lot of generous gifts to condone him Mr. Qingteng's literary illness.
When Li Rubai came to visit the teacher, it happened that Miss Yan also went to visit the teacher, she was recently forced by her father to visit the father-in-law's house every day, that kind of taste, for a demented literary woman, there is really a sense of insult to eat that comes to you, why do you want me to go to the door of your Zheng obedient official every day?
However, this time, [***] Yan Dazhang didn't allow his daughter to mess around, and even pulled down his face for the first time and said, daughter, are you just watching our Yan family fall?
Yan Qingwei couldn't bear her father, so she ran to Guozhang's house if she had nothing to do, but now that the obedient official is not staying at home, in Miss Yan's opinion, then Zheng Obedient official is just idle and bored to wander around, from a talented man to a gentleman, it is really embarrassing, coupled with the assassination of the obedient official, Aunt Ai Mei Niang took the Seven Fairies to Suzhou, so she Yan Qingwei can't still come to the door every day? Who to look for? Looking for Zheng Liancheng and Zheng Guozhang?
Therefore, she didn't have her father's nagging, this time she was idle, and she suddenly felt a stomach of bitter water, there used to be Xiaoqian to say, but now, there is no one to tell, think about it, I thought of the teacher Mr. Qingteng, so I sneaked out, and ran to Shanyin to find Xu Wenchang.
Xu Wenchang saw this female disciple, he was still a little embarrassed in his heart, he cheated on eating and drinking for so long, and he didn't really teach carefully, and asked her about her homework, of course, as Mr. Qingteng and a female disciple, he naturally wouldn't ask about the Five Classics, all of which were poems and songs.
At this time, Li Rubai came to the door to meet the teacher, Xu Wenchang had not seen this student for many years, and he was quite happy to see how tall he was now, and after letting him sit down, he pointed to Yan Qingwei and said, "This is your junior sister." ”
"Senior brother, Wan Fu." Yan Qingwei saluted, Li Rubai didn't dare to slack off, and quickly got up to return the salute, "Senior sister, it's polite." ”
In short, this is a grand event of Xu Wenchang's family, and it has nothing to do with the obedient officials in Suzhou, but the bad thing is that Mr. Qingteng suddenly felt that the fat water could not flow into the fields of outsiders!
At that time, as soon as his eyes rolled, he sang loudly and sang a song of Cai Wei, which is from the Book of Poetry, Yan Qingwei has learned, Li Rubai has also learned, and after listening to the teacher singing halfway, he couldn't help but echo it, "...... In the past, I went back, and the willows followed. Now I think about it, the rain and snow are falling. The way is slow, thirsty and hungry. My heart is sad, I don't know how I mourn! ”
After singing this song Cai Wei, Xu Wenchang burst into tears, the most respected woman in her life, I am afraid that it is the teacher in front of her, so she hurriedly walked to his side and stroked his back.
The final meaning of this Cai Wei is: I think of when I left home, the willows fluttered in the wind. Now on my way home, there are snowflakes all over the sky. The road was muddy, the steps were difficult, and the body was full of hunger and thirst. How desolate and sad my heart is, and who can understand the pain of my heart!
This poem and his Xu Wenchang's background are really very appropriate, he was imprisoned in Yanjing for several years, several friends have been running for him, and later amnesty the world, he went out of the customs, met the three ladies of my answer, the three ladies respected him, and even said to his subordinates, seeing Mr. Qingteng is like seeing my father, and met Ning Yuanbo Li Chengliang, Li Chengliang admired his talent, so he solemnly asked him to teach his two sons.
However, these can't hide his Xu Wenchang's very failed life, in the Ming Dynasty, you have great ability, even if you can poke a hole in the sky, as long as you are not admitted to the Jinshi, then it is not the right way to originate, any Jinshi and the first person, even if he admires it, but in his heart he has not said it, isn't he a poor sour who has not even been admitted to the Jinshi.
Therefore, Xu Wenchang is sad from the heart, he has always been known for his wild salivation, and he regards the etiquette as nothing, and immediately cried loudly, like a dead mother.
Li Rubai has been studying in front of Xu Wenchang for several years, and he knows the teacher's temper, so he got up to persuade him immediately, and then said that his father is also very concerned about the teacher in the north, so it is better for the teacher to go to the north to relax.
When Yan Qingwei heard this, she couldn't help but glared at this senior brother, this era is an era of etiquette, so his disciples actually have a relationship that is closer than his own brothers, even if Xu Wenchang himself is famous for his coriolacy, it can't change this fact.
Li Rubai was glared at by his junior sister, and immediately laughed dryly, he remembered that the teacher was not very good when he was a child, although Liaodong was the world of their Li family, but no matter how it was said, it was a bitter cold place, and it was indeed hard to let the teacher run over there again.
Fortunately, Xu Wenchang cried for a while, and then stopped crying, and then called Li Rubai's character, Li Rubai's character Zizhen, or the table word he took, "Zizhen!" Now you are going to Suzhou to marry the Wu family, do you know that this matter is not easy......"
Although the Wu family was brought back by Ma Sanbao's father-in-law when he went to the West, it has taken root for more than 100 years, and it is also a big family that can be counted in Nanzhili.
Li Rubai pouted in private, and said in his heart Who knows what the woman of the Wu family looks like, is it difficult, will she be more beautiful than Xue Yue'er?
And after Xu Wenchang babbled a lot of words, the words turned, "However, you are my disciple of Xu Wei......" When he said this, his chest straightened, although he was just a weak scholar, he suddenly had a sense of contempt. In this era, even Zheng Guozhang and others who have seen the Tuban Khan are considered to have seen the world, not to mention Xu Wenchang and others, who personally walked outside the Nine Border Pass, got to know countless tribal leaders, and were even regarded as guests by a generation of female heroes and three ladies, and Ning Yuanbo, who had not been an opponent for two hundred years, personally invited him to be the teacher of the two most valued sons, saying that he was a great talent of the country, which is by no means an exaggeration.
"I'll sell this old face, in Nanzhili, there is still a little weight." When Xu Wenchang said this, he turned his head to Yan Qingwei and said: "Qingwei, you are a woman, there are some words, your senior brother is not good to talk to the Wu family when he arrives in Suzhou, but you are fine, it is difficult for you once, go to Suzhou with your senior brother and help him." ”
Yan Qingwei was immediately embarrassed when she heard this, how to say that she is also the first lady in Zhejiang, although she is said to be a brother and sister with Li Rubai, but it is inevitably a little inappropriate to go to Suzhou together, but the teacher is her most respected figure, she thought about it, after all, she gritted her teeth, and saluted Li Rubai Yingying, and said: "Senior brother, Qingwei will have to worry more from you." Li Rubai hurriedly returned the salute, but in fact, he was quite dissatisfied with the teacher's words. His Li family is used to calling for wind and rain outside the pass, and he is used to being powerful and blessed, and now he is in Nanzhili and asks to marry a woman from a merchant family, but where can he believe that there is something wrong with this matter.
In this way, Yan Qingwei was taken to Suzhou by Li Rubai, and when she was about to leave Shanyin, Xu Wenchang secretly pulled this female disciple aside, "Qingwei! You have worshipped me as a teacher since you were a child, and you are ashamed to be a teacher, and you have not taught you much carefully, but Li Rusong and Li Rubai brothers have grown up for me as a teacher, but they are a rare good man in Jiangnan, Qingwei, you are my student of Xu Wenchang, you should not be informal, pursue your own happiness, do you know what it means to be a teacher? ”
Yan Qingwei was ashamed at the moment, and then she understood the true meaning of the teacher asking her to go to Suzhou, and her heart jumped immediately, and the shadow of Zheng Chengguan suddenly jumped out of her chest.
However, when she thought of the stinky face of the good official, she became angry again, and for a while, she was entangled, and Xu Wenchang saw the expression on her face and thought that she was shy, so he smiled kindly and said to her: "Go!" Teacher, there is nothing by my side, don't worry about me. ”
At this time, Li Rubai's personal soldiers came with a carriage, Li Rubai saw that the teacher and the junior sister talked for a while and came over with a smile on their faces, and knelt down respectfully at the moment, "Teacher, Rubai has gone." He invited the little sister to get into the carriage, and then took another carriage and went to Suzhou.
