[Volume III]——

Chapter 13: Fu Guan's Reminder

There is a saying called: brine points tofu, one thing drops one thing. That's right, Yue Sen is not afraid of loving his mother and nǎinǎi, he is afraid of this cold-faced father. Who told him that he had already tasted his father's power, and his little tricks were still effective against his mother, but his father didn't eat this set at all.

As a second-generation official, it is not easy for Yue Sen to be regarded as a tǐng, but the second generation of officials in the Ming Dynasty is really not easy. Which one should not study hard when he is a child, although there will be some làngdàng children when they grow up, but most of them are more obedient, and there is another characteristic of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the older the father, the more difficult it is for the son to be. With a little bad deed, the spit of the imperial historian will come, and you have to be a godson who is not strict. Even, when the children of high-ranking officials take the imperial examination, they have to be scolded, and those who have no shadow participate in you to plot with power. The saliva of the officials is so powerful that the high-ranking officials in the world have to strictly restrain their children in their families so as not to cause infamy, and some simply said that they would not let their sons participate in the imperial examination until they retired. Being a second-generation official is actually a lot of pressure. The son who doesn't let his father cào heart, it seems that only Yang Tinghe's son Yang Shen, who calls people really talented to learn, and it makes people wonder if they can't pass the exam.

Without further ado, after his father left, Yue Sen reluctantly came to the desk and sat down, there were pens, ink, paper, inkstones and books on the table, it seemed that his father had prepared it for himself. Now Yue Sen, after a bumpy journey, was tired and hungry, looked at the book, and finally decided to sleep first.

But in the winter, sitting in the study by myself, can I not be cold, and I am adding a drum in my stomach, so how can people sleep. There was no way, Yue Sen gritted his teeth, and could only copy it head-on. He also knew that if he dared not to write, his father would dare not let him eat. I don't know where my mother is right now, so I can only be honest.

A "Three Character Classic", there are not many words on it, if it is copied by a céng person, two hours is enough to write it three times, but Yue Sen is a child after all, and it is not smooth to pick up the pen and write. In these days, it is easy to write máo pen characters. Before he could write a third of the first time, Yue Sen felt pain in his wrist and couldn't write anymore. Sitting on the chair, pouting, the more I read the book, the more annoyed I became, and finally simply skimmed the pen in my hand.

It was getting darker and darker, and there was a lamp in the room, which was very bright, but as time went by, he felt colder and colder. Where had he been so wronged, he couldn't help but shout, "I'm cold, I'm cold!" ”

There was a servant waiting in the next room, and when he heard Gongzi speak like this, he was also worried that Gongzi would freeze and get sick, and he would not be able to treat him, so he hurriedly went to tell Yue Su. How could the father be willing to let his son freeze, so he ordered to send his son a brazier and a quilt. He was also worried that his son would be hungry, so he asked him to bring two steamed buns and boiling water. If you don't eat, then you will be hungry.

That night, Yue Su rested at Mu Tianjiao's side, Mu Tianjiao had been sleeping soundly, and she hadn't eaten dinner, so Yue Su stayed in the house to accompany her. Wait until Mu Tianjiao woke up, ate something with his wife, talked about talking, and then rested together.

The next day, there were not too many affairs in the DPRK and China, and the county order election system in Jiangxi and Henan would not be carried out until the New Year.

In the streets and alleys, the discussion was still about Yue Su's lack of strictness in teaching his son, Mu Tianjiao listened to it in her ears, and felt deeply guilty, and it was inconvenient to mention where her son would be locked up after he came back. The family went shopping for a day before returning to the house, and at this time, a servant reported to Yue Su that the prince had copied the book.

Yue Su was secretly happy in his heart, and let his family go to eat by himself, while he went to the small courtyard of the school. Entering the study, Yue Sen honestly gave the copied "Three Character Classic" to Yue Su. Yue Su's handwriting is average, compared with those colleagues, it is far behind, when he sees his son's two strokes, he can vaguely feel that he is a calligrapher. …,

Yue Sen's writing is no different from that of a dog, Yue Su felt a headache, but he didn't get angry, and said gently: "Isn't it also possible to write, why do you punish you for your father to write, you can write it, and the teacher punishes you to write, so you don't write?" ”

"I ......" Yue Sen hung his head, unable to say half a word.

"Let's sit down and talk." Yue Su said, came to the opposite side of his son's desk, moved a chair and sat down.

Yue Sen honestly sat across from his father and didn't dare to say anything.

Yue Su picked up the three-character scripture and said, "When you first went to school for two days, Mr. Wang once praised you and said that you were very smart. My father was very happy at that time, and he also believed that you were a smart and sensible child, and he had high hopes for you. ”

After speaking, Yue Su looked at his son. Yue Sen still bowed his head and remained silent, not daring to say anything. Yue Su said softly again: "In the past few years, my father has been bent on state affairs, and you and my father have never met, let alone spoken so closely. Today, I will talk to you for my father, and I will teach you a lesson on behalf of Mr. Wang. ”

Yue Sen was still silent.

"You have been in class with Mr. Wang for nearly three months, and you can also memorize a quarter of the three-character scripture, which shows that you are still very smart. Now, the Father asks you, do you know the meaning of what you can memorize? Yue Su asked gently.

Yue Sen nodded.

"Then you tell me, at the beginning of people, xìng is good, xìng is similar, and Xi is far away. What does this phrase mean? Yue Su said.

Yue Sen didn't answer, still keeping his head down.

With this kind of attitude, if it was in the public court, Yue Su would have started to fight earlier, but he also understood that education was not a hands-on child, but should be gradual. So he said, "I haven't eaten dinner yet, your mother is still waiting for you to eat, if you can't finish this lesson, when your mother finishes eating, she can't eat with you." You've got to stay here tonight. ”

"I said." Hearing this, Yue Sen hurriedly said.

"Okay, then tell me, what does that mean?"

"Mr. said: When you are born, you are all good, but because of the growth process, the acquired learning environment is different, and there is a difference between good and bad." Yue Sen was not stupid, and told the meaning.

Yue Su nodded and said, "Very good." Since you understand the truth, then ask your father again, when eating, why Brother Zheng Chenggong and Sister Yue Meng don't pick on food and don't hit the teacher, but you don't like to eat, that doesn't like to eat, and if something goes wrong, you will do it. What is the reason for this? ”

"This ......" Yue Sen is a child after all, where can he answer this question, he can't say why for a long time.

"You also said that when you are born, you are all good, but because of the growth process, the acquired learning environment is different, and there is a difference between good and bad. Because your mother is the lord of the county, she is too doting on you and undisciplined, which is why your love is different from other children. In a simple sentence, Brother Zheng Chenggong and Sister Yue Meng are good boys, while you are bad boys. Sen'er, my father asked you, do you want to be a good boy like them, or do you want to be a bad boy like you are now? Yue Su and Yan Yue said squirely.

Yue Sen was not stupid, how dare he disobey his father, and hurriedly said: "I want to be a good boy like them." ”

"That's good, then you can talk about Gou Bu Teach now, xìng is moving, the way of teaching, what does it mean to be specialized."

Meaning: If you don't educate well from an early age, the benevolent will become bad. The most important way to keep people from bad is to concentrate on educating children consistently. Yue Sen replied.

Seeing that his son was able to tell the meaning, Yue Su was very happy in his heart, so he said: "This sentence is not only for us parents, but also for children like you. In order for you to learn well and be motivated, adults should start educating from an early age, and in order to keep you from going astray, they must concentrate on consistent education. In the same way, you little children, you need to be educated from an early age and concentrate on learning. Do you know? ”…,

"Got it." Yue Sen nodded and said.

"Xi Mengmu...... Teach five sons, and be famous. What do these two sentences mean? Yue Su asked again.

"During the Warring States Period, Mencius's mother ......" Yue Sen was also unambiguous and answered one by one.

Yue Su was even more satisfied with his son's performance, and then asked the next sentence by sentence, Yue Sen was also able to answer fluently, and he knew what each sentence meant. Of course, in this world, everyone understands the truth, it depends on how you do it. It's like an official, doesn't he know that it's wrong to be corrupt and pervert the law, but he still has to do it.

Yue Su calmly went to talk to the child about the truth in the three-character scripture, in addition to reasoning, he also had to tell his son what to do. In addition to studying, you must also respect your parents and teachers.

Yue Sen nodded while listening, indicating that he would definitely abide by it in the future.

After an hour in class, Yue Su said: "That's all for today's class, stay until tomorrow, please come back to Mr. Wang, and he will continue to tell you." ”

"Yes, father." Yue Sen said cautiously.

"For my father, Mr. Wang was angry with you, so you must invite Mr. Wang back. Can you do this? Yue Su asked in a deep voice.

"Yes." Yue Sen was already hungry, and nodded hurriedly.

If you can't do it and don't change your bad habits, your father will not only lock you up and punish you for not being allowed to eat, but also punish you for kneeling and beating you. You've made a note of it. ”

"Got it." Yue Sen answered honestly.

"Well, then go with your father to your mother's for dinner now."

"Yes, father."

Yue Su took his son out of the study and went to the small courtyard where Mu Tianjiao lived, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, someone saw him, and then hurried to inform Lord Mu. As soon as Mu Tianjiao heard that her husband had brought her son back, she was very happy and immediately came out to greet her.

Yue Sen was also very excited when he saw his mother come out, crying and shouting: "Mother's ......" The voice settled, and the person had already thrown into Mu Tianjiao's arms.

Then, Yue Sen shouted again: "Mother, I'm hungry ......"

"Good boy, mother, let someone cook for you. Come on, call the kitchen and prepare a meal for the child. Mu Tianjiao shouted eagerly.

"Yes." The maid hurriedly agreed and hurried to the kitchen.

Yue Su walked over slowly from behind, and said softly: "Tianjiao, it's cold outside, let's talk in the first room." ”

"Okay, good ......" Mu Tianjiao took her son's hand and entered the room with Yue Su.

The three of them sat down around the table, Mu Tianjiao asked his son for warmth, although Yue Sen was wronged, he didn't dare to get in jail with his father on the side. Last time, my father snatched himself from my mother and locked myself up all night, and my mother didn't tell my father what to do, it seems that my father still says what my father says at home, and my mother is in front of my father, so it doesn't work at all. So, don't offend Daddy.

Their family is reunited and happy, but the chefs in the kitchen are now the first two big.

The county lord ordered to prepare a meal for the young master, normally speaking, it must be what the young master likes to eat, but the master is here, if the dish is not right, he will have to get angry, what can I do?

After studying for a long time, I found a few dishes that the young master still likes to eat, but is not extravagant. Four dishes, a soup, and a pot of rice were all brought into Mu Tianjiao's room.

Placed on the table, Yue Sen immediately picked up the chopsticks and was about to start. However, Yue Su suddenly coughed, Yue Sen was also smart, and immediately reacted, and said respectfully: "Father hasn't eaten yet, please eat for father." ”

Seeing that her son suddenly became so sensible, Mu Tianjiao was immediately stunned, but then thought that this must be the result of Yue Su's education. …,

Yue Su nodded, picked up the chopsticks, and said, "Let's all chopsticks together." After speaking, I first grabbed a pair of chopsticks.

Seeing his father move, Yue Sen relieved himself and began to move his chopsticks. The dishes on the table, don't look at it is not expensive, it is true that the chef jīng cooks with heart, before the change, Yue Sen may have to choose, but now, he is already hungry and his heart is close to the back, where can he manage a lot, these dishes are eaten in his mouth, as if they are the most fragrant delicacy in the world, compared to what he did before, I don't know how much better. Compared with the two steamed buns yesterday, there is a world of difference.

Mu Tianjiao rarely sees her son eat so fragrantly, generally speaking, six out of ten times she has to pick and choose, especially eating such dishes. Unexpectedly, this made her husband train for a day and become so well-behaved. Mu Tianjiao had already eaten it, and seeing that her son was so well-behaved, she couldn't help but fill half a bowl of rice for herself and eat with their father and son.

After the family of three finished eating, it was not early, so they naturally had to go to bed. Yue Sen had to pester himself to sleep with his mother tonight, Mu Tianjiao was naturally willing, and Yue Su also wanted to accompany their mother and son more, saying that the three of them would sleep together tonight. Anyway, Mu Tianjiao's cáng is very big.

The three of them went to bed together, and the father wanted to stay here, and Yue Sen didn't dare to object, so he didn't say anything all night, and stayed until dawn the next day, Yue Su got up early, and when he saw that his son and wife were still sleeping, he called his son up.

Yue Sen was very reluctant to get up so early, but when Yue Su glared at him, he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only get up honestly. Mu Tianjiao was also woken up, asking what was the matter, she had to get up so early. Yue Su said: "The ancients heard jī dance, the sun rises and the sun sets, this is the right time to exercise, I plan to take my son outside to exercise." ”

"Oh..."The son had never gotten up so early, he had the intention to stop it, and he felt that it was inappropriate, Mu Tianjiao could only nod and said, "Then I will ask someone to prepare breakfast, and when your father and son come back from exercise, we will eat together." ”

Get! Seeing that his mother didn't help him anymore, Yue Sen was even more helpless, so he could only go out to exercise with his father.

It's winter now, and it's obviously not appropriate to train children to practice martial arts, and it's obviously not appropriate to practice martial arts. Therefore, Yue Su first let his son run, followed him, and ran a few laps in the yard.

Where did Yue Sen exercise, he couldn't run without running a lap, but with Yue Su watching, he didn't dare to be lazy, so he could only run hard.

After exercising, the father and son went back to eat, and then Yue Su went to work, leaving homework for his son before leaving, and copied the three-character scripture. Yue Sen could only nod.

Yue Sen went to the cabinet office, finished his official work, went home for dinner at noon, and checked his son's homework by the way. Yue Sen's words are still the same, but they are still finished. After noon, Yue Su personally took his son to Wang Xuezheng's house to apologize, Yue Sen really learned to be obedient, and when he arrived at the palace, he kowtowed to Wang Xuezheng and admitted his mistake.

Wang Xuezheng is so old, how can he be as knowledgeable as a child, and Yue Su's identity is there, so he can't say anything. Yue Su asked Wang Xuezheng to teach at home again, and he had enough face, and Wang Xuezheng couldn't afford not to give face, so he agreed to come down and move into Yue's mansion again.

The news of Yue Su's personal apology soon spread in Beijing. Although good things don't come out of mén, bad things go a thousand miles, but if good things want to come out, it's not too difficult, and more people can help spread it.

Lord Yue has the Changfeng Dart Bureau under him, and there are a large number of officials, and he also has a group of speech officials and Qingliu. Others can attack themselves with words, and Lord Yue's words and Qingliu will also come forward in some cases.

The big guy helped build momentum, and Yue Su's lax style of teaching his son immediately calmed down, and instead, Lord Yue respected the teacher, and personally took his son to Teacher Wang's house to take the blame, and he was a member of the dynasty, how rare it was to be like this. …,

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, another day is the day of the sacrificial stove, usually on this day, there are more officials who go to the relationship to give gifts. Whether the Lord of the Stove sacrifices or not, it may not necessarily work, but the big man in the court is indeed a "sacrifice".

At present, the most powerful person in the court is Lord Yue, but Lord Yue never accepts gifts, and if you give him silver, you are just asking for no fun. However, on this day, if other people's houses are all mén courts, so that Lord Yue's mansion is too deserted, it is also uncomfortable, so the big guys reached a consensus, on this day, let's ask Lord Yue to string mén, gold and silver, we don't send it, send some pastries, fruits, wine and the like, Lord Yue will not refuse people thousands of miles away.

A wave of guests boarded the mén one after another, and Lord Yue was busy all afternoon, and it was almost time for dinner to stop. Seeing off the last group of guests, Yue Su planned to eat, but this kung fu, someone outside mén spread that it was Fu Guan, the left concubine of Zhan Shifu, who asked to see him.

Fu Guan is the leader of the second year of the Apocalypse, and he is also Yue Su's mén student, at this time his function is to give lectures to the Son of Heaven, and he is the official position of the fifth grade.

At this time period, the people who visited the meeting should not come, and Fu Guan came at this time, there is something wrong. Yue Su immediately asked Fu Guan to meet in the study, Fu Guan arrived, and talked about the gift of teachers and students, Yue Su invited him to sit down, and the two chatted for a while, and then entered the topic.

"Teacher, the student came to the house today, because there is something I want to tell the teacher, but I don't know whether to talk about it."

"You and I are our own people, what do you have to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

When the teacher says this, the student is open and disrespectful. The teacher is the minister of the first emperor Tuogu, who is the prince of the court, and is also the teacher of the Son of Heaven, but the teacher has not taught the Son of Heaven a lesson since he was consulted, and the students think it is inappropriate. Fu Guan said bluntly.

"Oh?" Yue Su was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Why is it inappropriate?" ”

"Does the teacher know that Zhang Juzheng is right?" Fu Guan said.

"Of course I know." Yue Su was even more puzzled.

"Zhang Juzheng is the emperor at the right age, and he also has the weight of the orphan, he is extremely beautiful during his lifetime, no one dares to rebel, even if it is Emperor Shenzong......" The next words, Fu Guan did not say it explicitly, but anyone knows what his words mean. Obviously, when Zhang Juzheng was in power, even Emperor Wanli was afraid of him.

"However, when Zhang Juzheng died, everything changed, and the family could not be saved, let alone under the nest."

This sentence is also very clear, after Zhang Juzheng's death, it is really a miserable, the grave has been dug up by Wanli, the death of the family, the distribution of the distribution, not to mention the party henchmen, either implicated in prison, or bī Zhishi.

Yue Su was not a fool, as soon as he heard this, he immediately understood what Fu Guan meant, that is, he was afraid that he would follow in the footsteps of Zhang Juzheng. With his current power, there is not much difference from Zhang Juzheng back then, once he really ends up with Zhang Juzheng, it will be really sad enough. Fu Guan is his own mén student, if he is not good, it is estimated that he is enough to choke, no wonder he has to remind himself. It's just that Yue Su didn't know what Fu Guan meant specifically, so he pondered for a moment and said, "Yuanfu, what you mean, for the teacher to understand." In your opinion, what should a teacher do now? ”

Fu Guanzi Yuanfu.

"If the student says something that should not be said, when the first emperor was alive, he was a brother and sister with his teacher, so he was lonely with his teacher. The teacher also lived up to the loyalty entrusted by the emperor, kept the festival of humility and retreat, and served the country and the people, and prospered the Ming Dynasty. However, Zhang Juzheng was the same year, but he still ended up like that. However, the mentor was also different from Zhang Juzheng, and when Zhang Juzheng was in power, Emperor Shenzong was so afraid that he caused this disaster after his death. Therefore, the students are thinking that if the teacher can be like the first emperor in the past, long live today, and make the current long live and the first emperor believe in adults, and treat the teacher as siblings, then the teacher will definitely not follow in the footsteps of Zhang Juzheng in the future. Not only that, but the teacher can also continue to show his strength, and the Ming Dynasty will be prosperous, so that some people with ill-intentioned intentions will not have a chance to take advantage of it. Fu Guan said unequivocally and eloquently, saying what was in his heart.

After listening to his words, Yue Su couldn't help but gasp, and said secretly in his heart: "In less than four years, the emperor will be in power, and at that time, once his opinions are contrary to the emperor, and then he imagines such a drastic move as he is now, but it is extremely difficult, and he can't tear his face with the emperor." In that way, it will really give people like Han Yi an opportunity to take advantage of it. What Fu Guan said is the same as what Li Yuanchen said, it seems that I really have to think of a way. ”

Y
