Chapter 205: The Great Three Yuan (1)

Cui Dalang and Zheng Lang also woke up, I really think about it, it's not bizarre, every time the list is revealed, some bizarre stories will happen, but the old man Wang was born as a military general, and it is more "direct". The eldest brother asked, "Brother-in-law, what should we do?" ”

"I don't know. Big brother, you don't have to worry, Wang Xianggong is not what you imagined, he is a loyal elder. ”

"Loyal ......?"

"The battlefield is the battlefield, that is to kill the enemy for the country, and to deal with people is to deal with people, do you think that the scholars are all like you? The more books some people read, the more intrigues and tricks they have in their stomachs. This kind of talent is the most terrifying, and you don't need to see blood to kill people. "Zheng Lang must know Wang Deyong very well, and later Kong Daofu was jealous of the martial arts, so he reorganized him and went out of the court, and he also said that Kong Daofu was the biggest loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty. Can such a person be called a bad person?

"That ......"

"The Wenchen of our dynasty is more expensive than the generals, but there are a few families that have great influence, such as the Pan family, the Cao family, the Gao family, and their Wang family, even the Guo family of the deposed Queen Guo is not as expensive as their few families."

"Hmm." This eldest brother has heard of it.

"Wang Xianggong himself is a Xianggong himself, with outstanding military achievements, although he was born as a military general, his influence is not weaker than that of several other civil ministers and prime ministers," Zheng Lang said, speaking of this, he thought of another person, Di Qing, although he was influential, but the identity of a civilian, the background of a martial artist, was destined to become a tragic ghost, but Wang Deyong is different, his family can be said to be a family of founding meritorious deeds, although he is a martial artist, Wenchen also does not dare to slack off. He also said: "If the third brother marries the granddaughter of his family, it will be very helpful for the third brother's career in the future." ”

"What about the little lady of the Qin family?"

"I don't know ...... either" Zheng Lang replied hesitantly, from the perspective of his career, this family business is too beneficial to the third uncle, but from the perspective of conscience and morality, the third uncle cannot agree. But Wang Deyong has made such a fuss, will he let go?

Don't think that he is really honest, a very strategic person, loyalty is loyalty, strategy is strategy, otherwise he would not have achieved several great victories on the battlefield, and he sat in the prime minister's position step by step in the political arena, and even his father Wang Chao once sighed: "The Wang family has children." ”

turned into a moral gentleman and saint, and if he wants Wang Deyong to repent, I am afraid he will not be able to find any good solutions.

"Why does he fancy the third brother?"

"Your Majesty praises you for being honest, and the third brother looks good...... Who knows, let's go see him. ”

"No, you'd better not go out," the eldest brother said nervously. His third brother was ranked more than 600 and was robbed by Wang Deyong, not to mention his brother-in-law. In addition to his better appearance, the third brother is just a small rib, and the little brother-in-law is a fat lamb. It's useless to have a marriage contract, every time the list is released, there are not too many people who are favored by high-ranking officials and nobles and regret their marriage, and there will be several cases in that session. Wives can be married, and there is a marriage contract.

It's better to go by yourself, although the weight is lighter, but where is it safe on the road, people are nearly middle-aged, there are wives and children at home, who will kidnap themselves? Let Wang De use it to make his uncle all soldiers.

The eldest brother came to Wang Deyong's mansion and went in smoothly.

"Sit, sit," Wang De greeted affectionately.

Cui Dalang sat down and plucked up his courage to say, "Xianggong Wang, where is my third brother?" ”

It's not easy to ask this sentence bravely. The status is different, he is the prime minister, and he is a small man. And the appearance, Wang Deyong's appearance is great, tall or tall, such a big man, and a big black face, Zheng Lang said that he is a loyal elder, and the eldest brother looked at the burly old Wang, and there were still fifteen buckets in his heart.

"He's in the backyard, and he's married tomorrow, so someone will dress him up."

"Tomorrow?" The eldest brother sweated again.

"Tomorrow is the zodiac auspicious, and there is still a palace test, and it can't be delayed, so tomorrow we will get married." Wang De used the road. God knows what tomorrow will be, it doesn't matter what it is, the most important thing is that this family business must be done immediately.

"Not in order."

"Comply with the rules, your mother is about to rush to the capital, and this letter." Wang Deyong asked his subordinates to take Cui Youjie's letter and hand it to Cui Quanshu.

It's ridiculous, but it's being done according to normal procedures. Zheng Lang made an analogy, saying that from Caizhou to the capital, but in fact, the distance from Caizhou to Tokyo City is very long, hundreds of miles, and it is several times farther. Therefore, the two subordinates of the Wang family rode horses and galloped, and it was only after the third watch that they arrived in Caizhou City.

These two subordinates of the Wang family themselves have superb riding skills, and Song Bo may not be able to reach them this morning. Caizhou is just a local city, and when the people of the Wang family rushed all the way to the city of Caizhou, the city gate was closed early. Two family members stood under the city gate and shouted: "We are the guests of the royal prime minister's family in the capital, and we have urgent matters to see you in Zhizhou." ”

The patrol at the head of the city heard that it was the prince of the capital, needless to say that Wang De used it, so he didn't dare to slack off, and trotted to report to Cui Youjie, Cui Youjie wondered and asked the guards to open the city gate, welcomed the two subordinates of the Wang family in, and then made tea, and asked: "I don't know what the prince is looking for me?" ”

The two subordinates drank the tea cow in one go, and they were in a hurry, their whole bodies were sweaty, and their mouths were thirsty, don't say anything about the posture of drinking tea, is it useful for them, after drinking, an elderly family member told the story, it was Wang De who said what he said.

Cui Youjie also fainted.

He hadn't slept yet, and he had just gotten the news that his two sons had all taken the provincial exam, and he was also happy. It is the palace test that falls, and the provincial test and the provincial test are two different things.

And so it happened...... Settle down, ponder in my heart, a little weird, Wang Deyong is a military general, but he is a meritorious family, and his status is still very lofty, far from being comparable to his own small state. What did he invite his son to? If it's a son-in-law, it's pretty much the same.

Moreover, his own son himself knows that his six children, three sons are like himself, and he is more loyal and honest, but the two eldest daughters are similar to his wife, and they are some philistines. The youngest daughter is in between, flexible, uninhibited, neat, and never drags her feet. The third son is usually very loyal, and the courage to run around in a prime minister's mansion and follow his granddaughter to the boudoir!

Cui Youjie asked hesitantly: "Two brothers, is there some misunderstanding in the middle?" ”

"Misunderstanding? Cui Zhizhou, could it be that my father-in-law deliberately used the innocence of the little lady to slander your family's San Langjun? ”

Also...... Cui Youjie didn't know what to do, so he was in a hurry. Xu couldn't help but say: "Official, according to the will of the king." ”

"What nonsense! What should the Qin family do? Do you want to be famous! ”

"Is your reputation important, or is your son important!" The Xu family cried, but he was happy in his heart, the Qin family is the Qin family, about to accompany some more courtesies, apologize, and his son climbed Wang De with this high branch, and he will soar in the future.

Therefore, it is said that there is a good wife in the family who holds half the sky, and a bad wife in the family can also harm half the sky, Cui Youjie let his wife cry and make trouble, so that he had no idea, and said: "I agreed to this family matter, and after the palace examination is over, our Cui family will order the little lady in the house to marry over." ”

"No, my little lady is crying at home, looking for death and life, this matter has to be solved quickly." Wang Deyong's two family members immediately refused. Can you have a wedding in Caizhou? As long as Cui Quanzhong is released, all the truth will be revealed.

Cui Youjie's face turned white, do it according to the rules, you are a dignified prime minister, and I am also an official of the imperial court, if you are not a shabby child, you will do it in the capital. But the son did not do it right, he was wrong, not only did he regret his shame and quit his relatives, but even the wedding had to be held in the Wang family, what has become of this? Son-in-law! Angry, he said, "This little rabbit! ”

As soon as he retreated, he retreated, like a war, the whole army was defeated, and under the crying of his wife, he wrote a letter and acquiesced to this family business, but it was too embarrassing, and he was an official of the imperial court, and it was not easy for him to go to the capital, Cui Youjie did not show up, and asked his wife to be the parent and went to the capital.

The two family members were even more afraid of long nights and dreams, and said: "My little lady is crying at home, if Aunt Cui leaves, she will move quickly to save accidents." ”

After all kinds of urging, even the luggage was not packed, and under the urging of the two family members, the Xu family hired a first-class ox cart and rushed to the capital on the fourth watch. The road is still a little too far, if you want to reach the capital, the cattle will not stop, and it will not be until tomorrow morning at the latest, and a family will come back on horseback with a letter first.

Cui Quanzhong asked Wang De to use this trick to make his soul unpossessed, and heard Wang De say that it was a family matter that was favored by the Holy Lord, and the third uncle was dumbfounded, he was not a brother-in-law, why did he even alarm Huang Yanjing. Seeing his father's handwritten letter again, the last trace of defense was all destroyed, and the six gods said without a master: "Wang Xianggong can do whatever he wants." ”

I am a fish, you are a knife, whatever you want.

It also works for the eldest brother, Wang De said with a smile: "It's a marriage given by the saint." ”

"Your Majesty's marriage?"

"Can so-and-so still use His Majesty to lie?"

"Yes, yes."

"But you came just in time, you won the provincial test, and you wrote an invitation for so-and-so."

There are many guests, he is a meritorious family, and he is the prime minister, and he has dealings with Wenchen, even Lu Yijian and Li Di are all invited, and they are military generals, so they are like the Gao family, the Cao family, the Pan family, and even the Yang Ye family, all of whom have been invited. Cui Quanshu happened to be a coolie sent to the door.

The eldest brother had no choice but to write invitations desperately with others according to the housekeeper's instructions. Look at how many guests are invited on the invitation, and who these guests are, you will know that you are an egg and can't touch this big stone.

Zhao Zhen arrived.

After getting the handwritten letter from his in-laws, Wang De felt more confident in his heart, and went to the door and bowed down and said, "See Your Majesty." ”

"Wang Qing, please get up."

Wang Deyong stood up straight.

"Wang Qing, I ask you, why did you send someone to kidnap Cui Jia Saburo yesterday?"

"That's the minister was confused, seeing that Cui Jia Saburo was loyal, he appreciated it in his heart, and sent someone to invite him, but he didn't make it clear, and this group of children would be mistaken and thought it was a march to fight, so they came over."

can't take it seriously, if he is really a foolish person as he said, Zhao Zhen will not let him be the prime minister. It's soy sauce, that's the prime minister, and if you don't have that ability, this bottle of soy sauce is also not easy to beat.

Zhao Zhen and this shameless old prime minister were equally unreasonable, and said, "I'll go and take a look at Cui Quanzhong." ”

"This, this......"

"Is there something wrong?"

"Okay, the minister will go with Your Majesty," Wang Deyong didn't dare to refuse, but that kid was very bad, and he looked like a little girl, what should I do? Then I saw a sycamore tree, my eyes rolled, I counted my heart, picked up a sycamore leaf from under the tree, stretched out my hand, and took this leaf in front of Zhao Zhen's eyes.

Zhao Zhen laughed and said, "As long as you don't go too far, I will keep my promise when I say it." ”

"Whoa."

entered the mansion, came to the backyard, saw Cui Quanzhong, and asked Wang Deyong to send someone to change into the groom's clothes, but his face was haggard and panicked. Seeing Zhao Zhen come in, he bowed and saluted, and wanted to ask, Your Majesty, the minister has been engaged, Wang De is unreasonable with this martial artist, why are you unreasonable, but after looking at Wang Deyong in the back, Shengsheng held back this sentence.

"Wang Qing, you go out."

"Oh," Wang Deyong didn't leave.

"Didn't you hear what I said?"

Wang Deyong walked out hesitantly, and Zhao Zhen asked: "Cui Quanzhong, you tell this matter from beginning to end." ”

There were many strange plots in the middle, which made Zhao Zhen unable to understand, so he asked. As for being unreasonable, can Zhao Zhen manage it? It's true to come and see the excitement...... Cui Quanzhong told the truth of the matter as it was, and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers really didn't break into Cui Xiaoniang's boudoir by mistake, they forcibly dragged the ministers in......"

Knowing this, Zhao Zhen thought about Wang De's use of all kinds of scoundrel methods, and he wanted to laugh very much. didn't laugh, walked out, beckoned to Wang Deyong, Wang Deyong walked over, and said with a weak heart: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?" ”

"Qing is also a minister, there are so many people on the list, Cui Jiazi's ranking is not high, and he has a pro-......"

Wang Deyong replied honestly: "The minister doesn't want to, anyway, it's better to arrest the Zheng family." ”

"No!"

"The minister knows that it can't, but the granddaughter of the minister just looks at the San Lang of the Cui family, if you don't get married, the minister advises her, but you can get married, it's a little difficult to do, so ...... However, Your Majesty, Taizu Shi said to the meritorious deeds, you fight bravely to kill the enemy, don't you just want to have a happy life, so that your children and grandchildren can enjoy happiness with you, and the ministers are only fighting for a son-in-law, which is not too much. ”

Using the story of Zhao Kuangyin's cup of wine to release the military power, Zhao Zhen was speechless, and said after a long time: "We need to deal with the aftermath, after all, this case is not very good." ”

Zhao Zhen also knows the story of releasing the list to catch his son-in-law, but this old man has gone too far.

"Yes," Wang Deyong was overjoyed, and bowed down and said: "Lian Po is still seventy years old, the minister is not old, and the country will have a military revolution in the future, and the minister can still kill dozens of enemies for the court." ”

This sentence finally hit Zhao Zhen's soft pink and tender little liver! After all, this old courtier has fought bloody battles many times for the sake of the court, and he has died nine times in his life, which can be regarded as meritorious. It's hard to say anything, and just leave.

…… The Cui family waited for Cui Dalang to come back in the inn, the left couldn't wait to come back, the right couldn't wait to come back, they were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, could it be that they deducted another one in? San Lang is better, Da Lang is not, there is a little lady at home and a child...... Wang De has many granddaughters, may it be worth fighting for Cui Quanshu?

Two subordinates ran to Zheng Lang, and Zheng Lang said, "It's okay. ”

After waiting for a while, the palace sent someone to send an invitation, the Cui family is a mother-in-law, the wedding was held in a hurry, there were not many people, and Zheng Lang had to sit at the wedding banquet. not only sent a greeting card, but also sent five big men over.

It's Cui Quanshu who said.

The emperor agreed, Wang Deyong didn't have to worry, he ran inside and comforted Cui Quanzhong a few words, don't be wronged, my granddaughter is not worthy of you? Besides, you haven't married my granddaughter yet, so I fought for a jinshi for you.

Cui Quanzhong didn't know what to say, so he said solemnly: "Thank you." ”

"No thanks, don't call Weng Weng yet."

"Ong Ong ......"

"Very good," Wang Deyong laughed a few times, patted Cui Quanzhong hard, and almost slapped Cui Quanzhong's bones apart, and then returned to the living room, the eldest brother was doing coolies, Wang Deyong sat on the side and talked to him without a word, and then talked to Zheng Lang. The eldest brother suddenly remembered that his third brother had been arrested, and the younger brother-in-law was in danger of being caught. Wang Deyong laughed when he heard it, and he didn't want Zheng Lang to be arrested, the Cui family is not his own family, Cui Youjie's Zhizhou, not Wang Zeng's Zhizhou where they were released with the post of prime minister, and they have no weight, they want their granddaughter to have a good life in the future, and they also want the Cui family to be slightly stronger, including external forces. With a wave of his hand, the five strongest members of the family arrived at the inn and protected Zheng Lang in an all-round way.

I don't know what their strength is, but looking at their figures and the fierce look in their eyes, Zheng Lang estimated that if these five families were PK with those prodigal forbidden soldiers in the capital, it was possible that one person could deal with more than five forbidden soldiers. The shopkeeper Yan brought dinner over, and when he saw the murderous aura in the eyes of these five family members, he almost let this look kill in seconds.

The Wang family sent out invitations, and the bigwigs in the capital looked at the invitations and knew what was going on. There are those who laugh and scold, you old horseman, you have a higher taste. Anyway, it became a real live capture, anyway, regardless of whether people were engaged or not, Zheng Jiazi, or Huang Zhen, the top of the list, were caught, but it was worth catching Cui Jiazi.

The old puppet is the old puppet, the strong and fierce life is ininimitable, and the idea is also different. But he couldn't buy Wang De's account, and they obediently agreed to come to the banquet one by one. The Wang family did a good job on the surface, and Zheng Lang's mother-in-law also took over. It took 15 hours to travel nearly 600 miles from Tokyo City to Caizhou, and I arrived the next morning. The Xu family was upside down all the way, but he was happy, his son married the prime minister's granddaughter, how faced! I didn't feel tired, I got off the ox cart in good spirits, saluted one by one, and then greeted Wang Deyong's family with a smirk.

Wang Deyong saw that it was going to be bad, and hurriedly arranged her to the inner house. I don't understand, your family official is also a Zhizhou, my son married my granddaughter, and my daughter will marry the Zheng family immediately, it can be said that your Cui family is not what it used to be, this kind of expression is too valuable!

It's hard to say.

It was Zheng Lang's arrival that made Wang Deyong feel very happy. It's not because of his talent, it's because he likes his future, as well as his demeanor and morality.

The wedding was successfully completed. Overall, everything went well, only the Qin family became miserable.

With a limited amount of alcohol and a young age, Zheng Lang quickly took his leave and returned to the inn. The two little ones greeted him excitedly and said, "Provincial Yuan, just now His Majesty has issued another edict, and the palace test will be held in eight days." ”

"Sooner or later, what's there to be happy about?"

"That's different, it's very likely that the provincial yuan will be three yuan in a row." Sima Guangdao.

Wang Anshi and the little fat man nodded desperately.

The champion is considered to have the ability, and even the third yuan is called more capable.

Wang De's use of catching his son-in-law is just another addition to the countless anecdotes in the scientific expedition, it is difficult to say whether he did it right or wrong, and he did it alone, at most the methods and means are different. Don't believe Chen Shimei's story later, can Bao Zheng be busy? It was a story made up by the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the horse was even less valuable in the Song Dynasty! It's funny, but the little master will make them really happy.

"Zhong Sanyuan? Not necessarily, before the matter comes out, you don't care what others say, but you must remember not to talk nonsense, lest you miss it, make people laugh, and people are terrible. ”

"Whoa."

But Zheng Lang knew that Lianzhong Sanyuan had a great chance, and the questions in the palace examination were made by the little emperor, and the Linxuan strategists, roll call, and final ranking were all controlled by the little emperor, otherwise how could he say that the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven would come from? I know more that if you do well in the imperial examination and win the top three yuan, you may not be able to do anything top in politics. But there was an inexplicable excitement in my heart.

Raising his head and looking out the window, the weather was really warming, the sparse insect chirping sounded in the corner of the wall, the sound of clucking frogs came from Cai Shui in the distance, and a crescent moon hung high in the sky, giving the window a hazy color. There is wind, the wind is soft, gently shaking the flowers and trees, the sound is very soft, as if playing a song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night".
