Chapter 202: Elegant Fun (4) 2/5 Subscription !!
Zheng Jingsi's father, named Zheng Huaijie, is honestly not famous.
He only achieved the largest Sima of Lizhou, and his official position was not obvious. Now, Zheng Huaijie has returned to his hometown, recuperating at home, and will not show up most of the time.
Zheng Huaijie has three sons, Zheng Jing Sixing II.
The three sons of the Zheng family also have no particularly big achievements, which is also related to their talents.
However, Zheng Huaijie also has a daughter, which is amazing. She married Cheng Wuzhong, the younger brother of Cheng Wuting, a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty. When Cheng Wuting had not yet been killed, Cheng Wuzhong washed the prince's horse because of Cheng Wuting's recommendation.
But later, in order to clear the obstacles to ascending the throne, Wu Zetian finally made a move to Cheng Wuting.
After Cheng Wuting's death, the whole door was strained. Cheng Wuzhong was not implicated because he was unwell, and he was dismissed as a civilian and now lives in Luozhou. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the Cheng family is no longer prosperous. But in fact, people with a heart can see that as long as Cheng Wuzhong is alive, the Cheng family will be favored, which is compensation from Wu Zetian.
I think that at the beginning, Cheng Wuting actually cooperated with Wu Zetian.
In the coup d'Γ©tat that deposed Zhongzong Li Xian and expelled him from Chang'an, Wu Zetian was supported by Cheng Wuting.
It's just that Cheng Wuting's prestige is too high, and he is not clearly involved with Li Tang, so Wu Zetian has to make up his mind to kill him. Now, it is the ninth year that Wu Zetian has sat firmly in the country, and whenever she recalls the events of that year, she will also have some regrets. But there were things like that, and she had no other choice at the time.
Therefore, Cheng Wuting died, but his brother was taken care of.
Cheng Wuzhong may not go out of the mountain to serve Wu Zetian again. But Wu Zetian took care of him. But it will not be diminished because of this.
Yesterday. After Zheng Jingsi returned home, he asked people to find three poems written by Yang Shouwen.
In the end, he could be sure that these three poems were definitely not stolen by Yang Shouwen, and he was relieved. Subsequently, Zheng Jingsi told Zheng Huaijie, who was recuperating at home, about it. When Zheng Huaijie heard about it, he immediately made a decision.
"Erlang, tomorrow you will go to visit Yang Wenxuan and make more friends with him.
Speaking of which. He is also the son-in-law of our sixth room, and Nineteen Lang is not here, so you, as a brother-in-law, will have to worry more. When he left Junzhou, he even kept his name incognito for many years, so he must have had a last resort. Now that he is here, although he is no longer a child of the Yang family, our Zheng family cannot be lazy, and when the time comes, it will be said that our Zheng family has no favor. β
"The child understands."
Zheng Jingsi knew Zheng Huaijie's thoughts very well.
Since the Zheng family became the crown prince, it has been suppressed by the imperial court.
It can't be helped, it's on the wrong side. You deserve it. But the problem is that after years of repression. and the marriage ban issued by Gaozong after he ascended the throne, among the seven surnames and ten families, the Zheng family occupied three families, which also made the Zheng family suffer again.
For so many years, the Zheng family has always had children who have served in the court, but they cannot be reused.
On the one hand, it is because of the suppression of the Zheng family by the imperial court, and on the other hand, it is also because the Zheng family has indeed withered over the years.
Don't worry about the other rooms, just talk about these six rooms.
There are more than 40 people in Zheng Jingsi's generation, but only Zheng Lingzhi and Zheng Changyu can be alone. Originally, Zheng Jingsi could have made a difference. It's a pity that he was too upright, so much so that he offended Wu Zetian and was removed from his official position.
There are more than forty six-house brothers, and if you count it, it seems that only Yang Shouwen's mother can be regarded as a scholar.
It's a pity that Zheng Xiwen is a woman, and she passed away early, so it is impossible to bring practical benefits to the Zheng family......
And now, Yang Shouwen's characteristics have made Zheng Huaijie see hope.
Although Yang Shouwen is not surnamed Zheng, he is indeed a real child of the Zheng family, and he has a relationship with the Zheng family that breaks bones and tendons. If he can rise in the future, it will inevitably bring practical benefits to the Zheng family. You must know that even if Yang Shouwen returns to his ancestors and returns to the Yang family in the future, he is the first to stand up and help the Zheng family.
"Brother Wenxuan, I'm really sorry, you moved here for so long, so I came to visit."
In the living room, Zheng Jingsi looked very humble.
Yang Chenglie hurriedly waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Twenty-nine Lang Xiu wants to say this, but I really have no interest, so I have to come and defect." β
"Eh, what did Brother Wenxuan say?
What do you run to or not, we are a family! I still remember the scene when the third sister taught me a thousand words. It's a pity...... Brother Wenxuan, you too, even if the Yang family drove you away at that time, why did you go to Changping incognito? I'm here with Nineteen Lang, how can I give some care, and why bother to be the county lieutenant of Nalaoshizi.
If I hadn't been told by Shijuro last year, I wouldn't have known...... You say you, how can you let Da Lang fall into that kind of danger? β
Zheng Jingsi is talking about the rebellion of the Khitans in the first year of Long Live Tongtian.
At that time, Yang Chenglie, under the command of 'Wang He', led the people to defend the city. But the danger of that battle was not inferior to last year's Battle of Changping. The only difference is that there was 'Wang He' in the middle of the strategy.
It was also that war that prompted Yang Chenglie to make up his mind to contact Zheng Lingzhi.
He originally planned to wait for Yang Shouwen to be his grandfather Yang Dafang's filial piety expired, and then sent Yang Shouwen to Xingyang and let Zheng Lingzhi take care of it.
However, this person is not as good as heaven, who would have thought that ......
"By the way, why don't you see Da Lang?"
Zheng Jingsi and Yang Chenglie exchanged a few words, and then shifted the topic to Yang Shouwen.
He smiled: "If it weren't for Da Lang yesterday, our Zheng family would really be swept away by the Pan family." Brother Wenxuan didn't see it yesterday, what kind of demeanor Da Lang was at that time, it only reminded me of the elegance of the third sister back then. β
Yang Chenglie hurriedly said: "That kid is just relying on his cleverness."
I also heard about it when I went out today, but I didn't expect him to publicize the incident between me and your third sister back then. I was blaming him just now! It's not a good thing to be so arrogant. No, he was angry, so he hid in the building and refused to come out. β
Yang Chengyeol did not say that Yang Shouwen was writing, but it sounded more credible.
Zheng Jingsi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "This is Brother Wenxuan's wrong, Da Lang is arrogant, this is to add face to our Zheng family." If the third sister is here, she will be very happy, then she will be like you, and you still have to blame? β
Outside, there was a commotion.
Yang Chenglie frowned, said rudeness, and walked out of the living room.
"Aunt Yang, what are you bringing people to do?"
I saw Yang walking in from the front door with a few craftsmen-like people, and he was giving orders as he walked.
"Ah, back to Ah Lang, it was the son who asked the slave to find someone to come over.
He told the slave last night that the yard was too deserted to be interesting, so he wanted to fix it. It's just that what he said was too complicated, and the slave was worried that he couldn't remember it clearly, so he simply invited a few craftsmen from Xingyang and asked his son to give instructions in person. β
Deserted? Interesting?
Zheng Jingsi walked behind Yang Chenglie and recognized the craftsmen at a glance.
"Brother Wenxuan, these people are indeed the best craftsmen in Xingyang...... However, how does Dalang want to trim it? Listening to the meaning of this sister-in-law, it seems quite complicated. Why don't we go and see how interesting Dalang is? (To be continued......)
