Chapter 24: Apprenticeship
PS: There are a lot of big comments in the book review area that have taught me a lot, thank you! There are some deficiencies, I hope you will bear with me! In addition, there are some reasons, just to make it easy for everyone to read, and the author is also easy to write......
……
Originally, the Cui family was in Lin'an, and the richest man in Hangzhou on the business road was his backing, and the Cui family on the official road was the only help of Chen Yaozuo, so the future of the Cui family in Lin'an was bright.
But since the repentance of the marriage with the Ye family, looking at their current situation, why did Cui Fang get so angry!
First of all, the Cui family's prestige plummeted because of Ye Heng's literary brilliance, and then Chen Yaozuo was also angry and ignored them, and then the Pu family broke off a qiē cooperation with the Cui family, and then later, Cui Wei couldn't even pass the exam!
And this qiē started from the counterattack after Ye Heng was insulted to the Cui family, and it was Cui Wei who insulted and forced Ye Heng to write words!
After scolding Cui Wei, Cui Fang glared at Cui Ying again.
Although Cui Wei and Cui's mother have a lot of responsibility, in the final analysis, Cui Ying is arrogant and short-sighted, because she looks down on Ye Heng and doesn't want to live a hard life after getting married.
But at this time, Qian Qibo stood by Cui Ying's side, if he scolded Cui Ying, even Qian Qibo would be scolded together, Ye Heng, the son-in-law, didn't dare to think about it, couldn't Qian Qibo also offended?
So Cui Fang just flicked his sleeves in annoyance, and then left sullenly.
At this time, in front of the Ye family, the brothers and sisters of the Pu family also began to say goodbye, and there was no excitement to watch, and those people naturally left one after another under the gaze of the officers and soldiers.
After everyone left, Fan Zhongyan and Chen Yaozuo entered the Ye family's courtyard, and then the two met Ye Heng alone in Ye Heng's study.
"Who is the Qian family who made the bet with you just now?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Fan Zhongyan asked Ye Heng about Qian Qibo.
Ye Heng told Qian Qibo's identity, and after Fan Zhongyan understood, he said: "Hmph, it's just a concubine in the side lineage, can you call the wind and rain?" The Qian family's power in Hangzhou is a little too big, right? ”
Between the words, there is a faint meaning of dissatisfaction.
Fan Zhongyan is a very disciplined character, his reaction made Ye Heng a little surprised, so he glanced at Chen Yaozuo.
Chen Yaozuo said in a low voice: "This time Xiwen came to Hangzhou, not only to give you a decree, but also to give you the imperial order!" ”
There are some things, with Ye Heng's identity now, Chen Yaozuo can naturally only point to him.
"Old Chen, didn't you say that the little guy is a person who can do great things? Even Yan Xianggong and Zhang Lao were full of praise for him, so they told him what was the matter? ”
Fan Zhongyan looked at Ye Heng and said: "This time the official family asked me to come to the southeast, one is to serve as the prefect of Suzhou, and the other is to supervise the Yongxing army, the Ye family boy, you are so smart, can you guess what I am here for?" ”
There is also a meaning of testing Ye Heng in these words, Ye Heng thought about it, and then asked: "The imperial court sent Mr. here, why don't you know about Hangzhou Mansion directly?" ”
"Clever!"
Fan Zhongyan laughed, and then said to Chen Yaozuo next to him: "Old Chen, this kid is really smart, haha, it seems that he also understands!" ”
What did Ye Heng understand?
In fact, Ye Heng also guessed, why?
First of all, Fan Zhongyan suddenly came to the southeast, and although Ye Heng was not in the capital, he also heard it when some scholars were gossiping, saying that Qian Weiyan was transferred to Luoyang, although it was said that Qian Weiyan asked for his life to go to Luoyang, but he chose to leave the capital because he was a good Beijing official and an official of the cardinal government, and the reason for this is definitely not so simple.
In addition, when Fan Zhongyan talked about the Qian family just now, that look was obviously very dissatisfied with the Qian family, and although Fan Zhongyan had the reputation of the prefect of Suzhou, he had robbed the command of the Yongxing Army, plus Chen Yaozuo, the transfer envoy of the two Zhejiang, so that the imperial court had two ministers in Eastern Wu, so it is not difficult to guess the intention of the imperial court to do this!
Indeed, the Great Song Dynasty has been open for so many years, and it has given them enough, and now the imperial court obviously wants to strengthen its dominance over Eastern Wu, so naturally...... You have to do it to the Qian family!
This is an inevitable relationship, King Wuyue is too influential and too far-reaching for Dongwu, and Dongwu is a rich land, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a cash cow, this piece of treasure land, but the ruling power of the court has not been very strong, naturally there will be some unwillingness!
In fact, the imperial court will target the Qian family, this is a matter of time, although after the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the descendants of the Qian family are very respectful and well-behaved, but in the eyes of the royal family, this alone is obviously not enough!
Fan Zhongyan looked at Ye Heng and said, "It seems that you have guessed it, but if you know this matter, it may not be good, but it may be bad for you!" But in that case, it's better to know a little more! Take a look at this......"
handed Ye Heng a book similar to an account book, and after Ye Heng flipped through it, Fan Zhongyan said: "This is the tax and tribute records of the provinces of Eastern Wu over the years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, hehe...... I dare to say that the number that the imperial court gets every year may not be as much as what his Qian family gets, believe it or not? ”
For this, Ye Heng naturally nodded.
Not to mention anything else, just a side concubine, Qian Qibo can have such capital, open a restaurant if he wants to, and he can invite so many skilled chefs to help, such energy, I am afraid that even compared with Pu Jiaxin, it is on par!
In other words, the Pu family, the so-called richest family in Hangzhou, is actually just a disguise, and the money family is deeply hidden!
Chen Yaozuo said beside him: "Xiwen, what are you doing with him?" Now I still have a cloth body, and the main task is to study hard and gain fame......"
"Is that really the case?"
Although it was an answer to Chen Yaozuo's words, Fan Zhongyan looked at Ye Heng with interest.
This sentence was asked to Ye Heng!
Ye Heng also knew, so he had no choice but to say: "Actually, Elder Chen is right, but ...... It seems that Mr. doesn't seem to think so, and the student seems to have a grudge with the Qian family, so ...... It is estimated that in the future, students will not be able to study hard! ”
Fan Zhongyan asked, "If you can't study hard, can you achieve fame?" ”
Ye Heng hesitated and said, "It should be ......"
Fan Zhongyan frowned and said, "Say yes!" ”
Ye Heng had no choice but to stand up, clenched his fists at him and said firmly: "Yes!" ”
"Good!"
Fan Zhongyan said: "The son can be taught! ”
"Uh......"
Ye Heng looked at Chen Yaozuo inexplicably, and then Chen Yaozuo smiled and said to Ye Heng: "Stinky boy, don't you kneel down and thank your teacher?" ”
Isn't it, do you want to worship Fan Zhongyan as a teacher?
