After Xu Fan reported to Xu Jie, he could feel that Xu Jie's was not happy.

Xu Jie leaned back in his chair and looked at his eldest son with pity. The three sons are the palms of their hands for him, Xu Fan is the palm, and Xu Kun and Xu Ying are the backs of the hands. Although it is all meat, the back of the hand is not as thick as the palm of the hand. What's more, Xu Fan's mother...... Xu Jie didn't know about "love", but he knew very well that he was haunted by her feelings and guilt.

"Son or son, which one is better?" Xu Jie asked softly.

Xu Fan was a little cramped, and twisted his body slightly: "It's all about the same, he's only fifteen years old......"

Xu Jie sighed, and secretly said in his heart: It's too bad. If the son is not filial, he can be sent to the government for investigation. The righteous son is not filial, but he is condemned by public opinion, and some people will say cool things.

"The daughter of the Taicang royal family was originally a granddaughter." Xu Jiedao.

"Wang Yuanmei's daughter?" Xu Fan was stunned.

Yuanmei is the character of Wang Shizhen, who was known as a leader in the literary world and a grandmaster-like figure in later generations. Now it is also a prosperous literary name, although the official position is not obvious - it is just that Zhejiang Zuo participates in politics.

Well, the vice governor can already be regarded as a minister of Xinjiang, but in Xu Fan's opinion, it is "not obvious".

Xu Jie nodded: "I heard that Wang Yuanmei has a daughter who is fourteen years old, and she happens to be worthy of Yuanzuo. But...... I can't mention it now. ”

Xu Fan's son - even if it is just a de jure son, marrying the daughter of Vice Governor Wang can be regarded as a good match. If it is a righteous son, then it is impossible to say, and rashly proposing it will only be regarded as a deliberate insult to others.

Xu Fan didn't expect his father to think like this: "Father, if you want to marry the Wang family, can't Yuan Chun?" His only son Xu Yuanchun is only two years older than Xu Yuanzuo, and he is more suitable for marrying the daughter of the Wang family in terms of age.

"But Wang Yuanmei is this person...... has a talent for literary fame, but is too proud. Xu Fan didn't like Wang Shizhen, and even surpassed Yan Shifan.

In terms of family background, Wang Shizhen's family has a strict pedigree.

The ancestor was Wang Ji Ziyang, a famous minister of the Western Han Dynasty, who was honest and honest, and knew the Five Classics. His descendants have been officials for many generations, and they were the gate lord clan in the Han and Jin dynasties. There is also the ancestor Wang Daozi Maojing, who is an important minister who created the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the five dynasties of the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were many heirs with thorn history, master thin, and festival officials, and they were a family of four surnames. The Song Dynasty did not pay attention to the family, and the scholars took the imperial examination as the right path, and Wang Jin of the Wang family was the secretary, and it was the Jiang Qing family.

At the time of the Mengyuan Dynasty, Wang Mengsheng (Guchuan), the sixth grandson of Wang Jin, was forcibly recruited as a scholar in Kunshan Prefecture, and served for more than 40 years, so he became a native of Kunshan. After the establishment of Taicang Prefecture, he moved to Taicang people. Wang Mengsheng's eldest son, Wang Geng. Wang Gengzi Wang Fangze. Wang Fangzezi Wang Wan. Wang Wanzi Wang Lin.

Wang Lin is Wang Shizhen's ancestor.

Wang Linzi, the word is still Yin, his wife Zhang, and he has Wang Qiao, Wang Jia, Wang Wei, and Wang Zuo.

Wang Qiao is Wang Shizhen's uncle, in the eleventh year of Chenghua, he was a scholar of Yiwei Branch, and the official was in Langzhong of the Ministry of Industry.

Grandfather Wang Zuo is Chenghua 14 years Wuxu Kejinshi, successively served as Shanyin, Yugan, Lanxi County, from the county order to move the imperial history, Guizhou, Qiongya military deputy envoy, Guangxi according to the inspection envoy, Guangdong right cloth political envoy, Sichuan left cloth political envoy, to govern the army real merit, was appointed as the right deputy capital of the imperial history, governor Shuntian, the official to the Nanjing military department right squire.

Father Wang Chen is a 20-year jinshi in Jiajing, because of the "Gengxu Change" command properly, made miraculous achievements, and was promoted to the fifth level of super promotion to the right of the imperial history out of Fushan Shandong. After inspecting Zhejiang and Fujian, he entered the imperial history of the right deputy capital, appointed Yu Dayou, Tang Kekuan, Lu Boring, etc., and led the army to break the Japanese in Putuo Mountain, killing and capturing thousands, and drowning countless people. After the governor of Datong, the right servant of the military department, the governor of Jiliao, beheaded 800. He was imprisoned for a grudge with Yan Song and was killed in the 39th year of Jiajing.

Needless to say, Wang Shizhen himself has already participated in politics in a province, and his younger brother Wang Shimao has been a scholar in Jiajing for 38 years, and is now a member of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites. Wang Shizhen also has a son-in-law, Hua Shuyang, who has just entered the junior high school this year and is also in the Ministry of Rites.

In the face of such a family, Xu Fan still has some psychological pressure.

From the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, the prestige and Shilin connections accumulated in recent generations are a huge bonanza.

"My father rehabilitated Wang Chen, but Wang Shizhen was not grateful, but she had a slight remark about her father in Hu Zongxian's matter." Xu Fan's words are still mindful.

Xu Jie didn't mind, he was no longer a person who minded other people's emotions. He said: "The in-laws are originally a fence, and the Wang family is a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is an excellent family." ”

Xu Fan said: "Then wait for Yuanchun ......"

Xu Jie shook his head and interrupted his son's words: "Yuanchun I have already thought about it, the daughter of the Zhang family in the same county, gentle and gentle, can be a good match." ”

Xu Fan couldn't react for a while: Which Zhang family is this Zhang family in the same county?

This contrast is too great!

Xu Yuanchun is your own grandson!

Xu Jie saw that his son had lost a little, so he said: "Virtue is not competent." Yuan Chun is just the posture of Xiao Jiuqing, there is no need to cling to the Wang family. ”

Xu Fan's lips moved, and he wanted to ask "What kind of pattern is Xu Yuanzuo", but he didn't ask after all.

……

Xu Yuanzuo didn't know that Xu Jie not only wanted to give him the halo of "the grandson of Shoufu", but also wanted to arrange for him to become Wang Shizhen's son-in-law.

This ignorance, however, is only temporary.

Xu Fan is certainly not a big-mouthed person, but he is a human after all.

People have a need to talk, especially when they encounter such a heart-stopping matter. It is undeniable that he loves Xu Yuanzuo far more than others, and even really treats him as a son. However, the relationship between him and his wife Ji is also very deep, and after Ji's death, all the love was poured into the crystallization of the love between the two - Xu Yuanchun.

Xu Jie thinks that Xu Yuanchun's marriage to Wang's daughter is "not worthy of virtue", but Xu Yuanzuo can...... It is important to know that some people can admit that they are inferior to others, but it is difficult to accept that their sons are inferior to others.

So when these words reached Xu Yuanzuo's ears, Xu Yuanzuo was really startled.

He inexplicably thought of Zhang Juzheng's ending.

He does not deny Zhang Jiangling's ability and genius, but why did such a character finally fall to the point of cutting down his books and liquidating his family, raiding his house, hanging his son, starving his family to death, and whipping his corpse?

To quote Xu Jie's quote from Xunzi, the answer is: virtue is not competent.

Xunzi's original words were: Fude is not worthy of the position, can not be called an official, reward is not meritorious, punish improper crimes, and it is ominous.

Translated, it means that there is nothing more unlucky than being in a position where you shouldn't be.

Xu Yuanzuo suddenly shuddered: When everyone in the world thought that Zhang Ju was thriving and the scenery was infinite, I am afraid that Xu Jie had already seen his "ominous".

But so what?

For Xu Jie, his political philosophy has been passed down and is bound to continue to be passed on. His political influence will continue to expand with Zhang Juzheng's administration, but the light will be overshadowed by Zhang Juzheng and will not be noticed.

As for Zhang Juzheng's ominousness, can it damage him at all?

In the same way, Xu Yuanzuo may use Xu Jie's guidance to reach the peak of his life, but the final result...... Whether it's a blessing or a curse is hard to say.

Xu Ge Lao is really a win-win model of benefiting others and himself!

Xu Yuanzuo gently touched the hard bristles on his lips, and suddenly said to Luo Zhenquan beside him: "Old Luo, have you heard, now there is a new trap." ”

Luo Zhenquan was struggling with the books on the case, and the few words he finally got acquainted with had trouble with him. He looked up at Xu Yuanzuo, lacking interest: "What trap?" ”

"It's just that there is a beautiful woman with excellent looks and family background, and she has to marry you, and the dowry is generally a handsome car and a mansion. After she got married, she asked for a lot of family assets from her mother's family, and she obeyed your words and told you what she wanted, and she had nothing to do except eat, drink and have fun all day long......"

"Huh?" Luo Zhenquan looked dazed, "What is she trying to do?" ”

"The key is not what she wants, the key is that you have lost your ambition and become a decadent and useless person!" Xu Yuanzuo said.

Luo Zhenquan took a book case: "Isn't it just to live such a life just to change my mind and work hard now?" ”

The conversation between the two caught the attention of the teenagers outside. They didn't expect that the serious Manager Xu would chat about his leisure during work hours, so they pricked up their ears, but they didn't dare to show it.

Xu Yuanzuo said again: "What if she waited for you to get old and kicked you away?" ”

"That will be for the future. What's more, I don't have any savings of my own? Luo Zhenquan disagreed.

Xu Yuanzuo was silent.

The dates given by Xu Jie will not be rejected in front of anyone.

Even if he pretended to be a scholar and told Zhang Juzheng about the future, would Zhang Juzheng believe it? Will I not confidently say, "I will not fall into such a field!"

"Well, I'm still a little scared." Xu Yuanzuo said half-truths and half-truths.

"Huh." Luo Zhenquan spit out two words, quite disdainful.
