Chapter 220: Rumors Ferment
At noon, Rong gently took the meal prepared by Zhao Qin's family and prepared to send it to the talent center.
The talent center is all on holiday, so Su Shaoan and Zheng Changwen's food is Lu Fubao, and Qin Yuwan is still sitting in the talent center, so they have to send food for three people.
As soon as Rong lightly got into the carriage, the coachman drove the horses to the talent center, and the road happened to pass through the downtown area.
At a stall selling velvet flowers, several young women gathered together and were whispering something.
There happened to be someone blocking the road in front of him, and when the coachman went down to deal with it, Rong gently lifted the curtain and looked at the stall of velvet flowers.
"Have you heard, that Shangshantang is really embarrassed this time."
Rong listened lightly, immediately lowered the curtain, and then leaned against the window and listened closely.
"Who said it wasn't, it was said that the queen mother used imperial power to oppress people, and said that she deliberately wanted to ruin the marriage of the prince of Zhu......" After that, the woman covered her mouth and smiled, and the rest of them also laughed.
The proprietress of the velvet flower shop immediately said: "I was present that day, this marriage contract has nothing to do with the proprietress of the clothing store, the proprietress is pitiful, how did it become that Zhu Gongzi pitiful." ”
"The queen mother knows the boss lady, but not the Zhu Gongzi, saying that the queen mother deliberately destroyed it, it is really a bit big."
"What else does my brother say, the imperial power oppresses people, what invigilator will let that Su Gongzi pass, my brother is crazy, the big exam in the Great Liang Dynasty is the most fair and just, I don't know how many talents have been produced......"
“......”
Rong sat up straight with satisfaction, it seemed that the Shangshantang had already started to spread public opinion. It's a pity that they spoke earlier, and they said everything they wanted to say, and blocked it, so the Shangshantang had nothing to say.
After a while, the coachman returned, and continued to drive the carriage on.
After arriving, Rong gently carried two food boxes, one large and one small, into the talent center, and after handing the small food box to Qin Yuwan, he went to deliver the big food box.
"Mr. Zheng has worked hard." Rong said lightly as he handed over the food box.
Zheng Changwen shook his head slightly, sighed and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that after so many years, I would bring another student who is going to take the big exam." ”
Rong looked at Zheng Changwen's appearance lightly, and said in surprise: "I thought Mr. Zheng wouldn't be nervous." ”
Zheng Changwen waved his hand, how could he not be nervous.
He really likes this Su Shaoan, he has done a good job in knowledge, articles, including questions and answers, and he is also humble and studious, if such a person is an official, he will definitely be a good official.
But in recent days, he saw some things in his eyes, but he had no way to help, he could only supervise him academically, and he always felt a little guilty in his heart.
"I believe in Mr. Zheng, and I believe in Su Shao'an." Rong said softly and seriously.
Zheng Changwen took a deep breath and said: "Right and wrong, success or failure, will be known in this month...... By the way, how's it going outside? ”
Rong Qingqing immediately knew what Zheng Changwen was worried about, and said directly at the moment: "Don't worry, everything is calm outside, and my husband and I will take care of things outside." ”
Zheng Changwen nodded, and after saying goodbye to Rong gently, he went in with the food box.
After Rong gently handed over the food box, he turned around and went back to find Qin Yuwan.
"The husband did so well, and now the basic wind has been completely reversed." Rong gently poured Qin Yuwan a cup of tea and said.
Qin Yuwan also breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately they reacted in a timely manner, otherwise this fermentation of public opinion would not know what kind of heavy blow it would bring to Su Shaoan.
"The husband just spread some rumors at the beginning, if Shangshantang accepted it when he saw it, and didn't spread it so wantonly, it wouldn't have been so seriously backlashed. Now Shangshantang just can't afford to lose, malicious rumors, and questions the fairness and fairness of the big exam...... It can only be said that evil is rewarded with evil! Isn't it good to win the big exam with dignity? I have to do something. ”
Rong Qing now remembered what Qin Yuwan said yesterday, and still had a chill down her spine, how vicious it was to do such a thing.
"I took the crown princess out this time, and I just said that the queen loves talent, but I didn't expect to be so misunderstood, which is also a good thing for the queen's reputation, so if there is really any worst situation, the queen will definitely help solve it." Qin Yuwan said.
Rong knew that this time it was stable, Jiang Yun would not be forced to marry someone she didn't want to marry, but if you tell her now, she won't listen to her.
"I hope that Su Shaoan will get the champion, this is the heaviest blow to those people, what they are proud of is not worth mentioning." Rong said softly.
Qin Yuwan said with a smile: "I heard Mr. Zheng say that Su Shaoan is really good, and I will also read the article, although my understanding is not as profound as Mr. Zheng's, but I can look at it anywhere." ”
"It is said that Mr. Zheng taught his husband?" Rong asked with a soft smile.
Qin Yuwan immediately lowered her face and said, "Alas, I was really hard at that time, and I was afraid that Mr. Zheng would come to me every day......
Rong looked at her mother-in-law lightly and couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, Lu Chengyan came over, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard Rong's soft laughter, and immediately walked over with a smile and asked, "What are you talking about, so funny?" ”
Qin Yuwan suddenly showed a depressed expression and said: "Speaking of when you asked Mr. Zheng to teach when you were a child, every time Mr. Zheng came to me, I was terrified, thinking that you had done something again, and then you stopped studying, but I was relieved......"
Lu Chengyan smiled awkwardly and said, "It's all in the past, don't mention it...... By the way, gently, didn't you say that about the thirty-two officials, I went to Governor Yin and investigated. ”
Rong lightly saw Lu Chengyan change the topic, so he took over the topic with a smile and asked, "Then what is the matter with these thirty-two officials?" ”
"Among them, ten are from Shangshantang, eight are from a place called Songzhuguan, ten are from the article academy, and four are from a place called Ming Xuetang in other places." Lu Chengyan said.
Rong was lightly shocked and said, "Ten of them are all from Shangshantang? After these students from poor backgrounds became officials, they embezzled and persecuted ordinary soldiers? ”
"These people have been officials for more than ten years, and they have long forgotten what they were like at the beginning, and they all have old knowledge and cover up each other...... If it weren't for the fact that this movement was too big and killed so many people, it is estimated that these people would still be able to live happily in officialdom for a long time. By the way, after I checked the origins of these people, Governor Yin seemed to be very concerned about this matter, so I didn't care about it anymore. Lu Chengyan said.
Rong nodded lightly, since the prefect went to check, then they didn't have to worry about it, the most important thing for them at the moment was to let Su Shaoan prepare for the exam with peace of mind.
