Chapter 256: The Storm Changes

It's not Zhongtian Academy, it's Dong'an Academy.

The cause of the matter, but not one. The top important thing is Dong'an Academy, which is already at the end, and it has decided to cheer up. The most important thing is to replace the mountain chief Li Shutong.

However, the college is a higher private institution and is owned by individuals. Dong'an Academy was built by the Li family, and changing the mountain is equal to a small change of dynasty.

Li Shutong thinks that he has done his best as the head of the mountain, but because of his wife's poor background, these problems have been caused. However, his wife's background is not what she wants!

After Uncle Mei, who was not confused, shouted out that he was unwilling for half his life, the ancestor of the Li family next to the branch bowed his head and said, "There is nothing wrong with this." It has nothing to do with others who you marry, but in the same way, if others don't come to Dong'an Academy because of this, it is also their freedom. Learning is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. If it was in the past, and now there are so many Runing Academy, and the century-old foundation of Dong'an Academy cannot be buried in your hands! ”

The old man's words were loud.

In the past, it was really rare to read that Li Shutong was a young jinshi, and he was the only heir of the elder, and everyone could only watch him act arbitrarily. The first ten years were better, although there were no jinshi, but there were a lot of lifters and talents. However, since he ascended the throne today, Dong'an Academy has not raised a child for ten years, and if there is no child, he naturally has no chance to take the test, so there is no Jinshi.

What makes the Li family feel even more hopeless is that Li Shutong is only forty this year, in good health, no illness or disaster, not to mention twenty years to live. Don't talk about him, let's say that the future heir of Dong'an Academy is only thirteen years old this year, although he has passed the government examination to become a child, but his biological mother is a singer. Added up, this Dong'an Academy will not want to turn over in fifty years.

After learning from the pain, he is burdened with the crime of seeking the wealth of the long house, and he must do it to the end!

The old man said in a deep voice: "I am sorry for my cousin and nephew." Don't worry, when Dong'an Academy changes the mountain chief, I will personally explain it to my brother and nephew! ”

The implication is to apologize for the sin with death.

The three candidates he found from his clan were all from the clan before the age of thirty, and they were not extremely good, but they were not bad. Hearing this, the three of them said in unison: "Ancestor, don't take it seriously!" ”

This said: "It's just a mountain chief, who is still rare?" ”

It's the truth.

If you are the head of the mountain, you can't go out, they are all promising people, why bother to be trapped in this small piece of world?

The other one said: "I was entrusted by my uncle to take over the academy." If you take the academy, you will have no uncle and grandparents, and your nephew will not take over the academy! ”

Li Shutong snorted coldly: "This means, not only do I have to give up the academy, but also kneel and beg a few cousins to take over?" ”

The ancestor of the Li family sighed and said, "I know that you are not happy, and I know that you are unhappy for your wife and children." But do you know the current situation in Runing? Don't mention anything else, just talk about Nanhu Academy, which is run by the little girl of the Fu family. It is said that the woman is the chief of the mountain, and this condition is not as good as you. As a result, the little girl was befriended by the prefect's wife to the prefect, and when she couldn't recruit anyone, she took the initiative to find someone - just ask, which one did you do? What have you done, your talented wife and daughter? ”

The words made Li Shutong speechless, and he argued forcefully: "This is different!" All the scholars rejected my wife and children first! ”

"If a woman is a teacher, won't she be rejected by scholars?"

Of course not.

Seeing that Li Shutong finally stopped refuting, the ancestor of the Li family said: "There is no news of the Fu family's daughter getting married - no need, either this subject or the next subject, Nanhu Academy will be a jinshi." At that time, Dong'an Academy will only abdicate to make way for Xian; At that time, even if you want to quit, there will be no one to take over. If you don't give up the post of mountain chief today, tomorrow I can gather the strength of the clan and build another academy! ”

"Then you can build another academy!"

Li Shutong said indifferently that it was equivalent to tearing his face in the same clan.

But he wasn't afraid.

The academy belongs to the business of scholars, and because of the name of Qingliu, it is not a money-making business. As the heir of Dong'an Academy, he is still tight in his hands, and how much spare money does others have? The power of the clan to build a academy can indeed be built, and there is a fatal premise.

This clan can be combined, Li Shutong is not optimistic about the Li clan.

Although he persecuted his own clansmen, Li Shutong, who returned to the back house, still felt aggrieved. At this time, the child came to report, and the Jinling Fang family sent someone to deliver the letter. Li Shutong suddenly put the unhappiness behind him, and said happily: "Please." ”

Eighteen-year-old Li Xinjie is particularly difficult to do with his family. Li Shutong thought hard and decided to let his daughter marry far away - he chose an old friend from Guozijian at that time, and told his daughter to the side branch of the Jinling Fang family. Previously, the two families had a verbal agreement, but because of the distance between them, the three media and six hires did not go.

Li Shutong gently asked the second chief manager of the Fang family: "But your young master has been hit?" ”

The seventh young master of the Fang family is already a showman, and he participated in the autumn festival for the first time this year.

Fang Er's general pipe: "The villain doesn't know." When the villain came, the young master had just finished the exam. ”

After speaking, he sent his master's handwritten letter.

Li Shutong read the letter, a thin page, and even less content. Li Shutong quickly finished sweeping, and then his color changed, and he wanted to go to Jinling to find a friend to argue with him. In those few lines, only one thing was written, the seventh young master of the Fang family had already made a marriage with someone else, and asked the Li family to find another son-in-law.

Not long after, Mrs. Li heard this from her husband's mouth and asked in surprise, "Haven't you said it all?" What happened? ”

Li Shutong's mouth was full of bitterness, and he said in a low voice: "Yes, the origin of the heart knot is not good." ”

Mrs. Li fell to the ground in a daze, and Li Shutong caught the person. At this moment, Mrs. Li's stubborn tears had already slipped down in a line: "There is no such reason again!" The biological mother is not my son who has a bad background, so why do you keep an eye on my son! ”

Li Xinjie, who came to visit his parents, heard this and stood outside the door crying.

yes, why are you staring at me?

The two of them never thought that they had to be the daughters of Jinshi, and the main reason was to pick up Gao Zhi and marry. What the? What is there for high marriage! Haven't they always been married with their heads bowed and raised their heads to marry women?

After whimpering, Mrs. Li asked her husband, "How did they know so quickly across thousands of mountains and rivers?" ”

"Young Master Qi of the Fang family, I don't know how I hooked up with that Qian Wenju from Nanhu Academy. Hearing that he was studying in Runing, he asked. That Qian Wenju is also a long-tongued person, and he doesn't know what dirty words he said. Qiu Yu just finished the exam, so he asked his parents to redefine the family affairs for him. This Nanhu Academy, there are too many things! Li Shutong's final verdict pointed out the biggest problem with his character.

When he wanted to marry a dusty woman, his father and mother did not agree, which was his father's problem; Seeing that the academy is not as good as a year after year, it is just that those scholars are pedantic and do not know how good his wife is; If the girl is disliked, it's just how others are!

If something happens, blame others for this, the two are surprisingly consistent, and they get out of the same mold. The daughter of the two, how could Li Xinjie be different? Thinking of the insult he received at Yuan Zizhou's wedding banquet, Li Xinjie couldn't bear it anymore, pushed the door in, and opened his mouth to say: "That Nanhu Academy is too deceitful!" Dad, you can't bypass the girl surnamed Fu again! ”

The wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Nanhu Academy is extremely low-key, and it is difficult for them to do anything; Buy murder or something, the Li family opened a academy, and they don't have the ability; In the end, I had to start from Fu Jiatang and find out the past incident of the Fu family.

The prefect of Zhang's house is also simple.

As long as this person is in Runing Mansion, it will be easy to do. There are 1,000 taels of silver at home, which is not much, but it is slow to check. In addition to what you have at home, you may go to the money bank to redeem it, but this is easy.

Recently, there are only two households that have exchanged more than 1,000 taels of silver, both of which are from the Li family of Dong'an Academy. One is that Nanhu Academy is not good, and the other is really the Li clan who scraped together the money to build the academy. After the official disguised himself, he took Master Fu to Dong'an Academy a few times, and asked him to find the person who sent the silver. Governor Zhang only tried a few words, and he confessed Li Shutong.

The confession is about to become like this, and Governor Zhang is also very convinced.

Governor Zhang said to Fu Zhenyu: "Seeing the big from the small, Dong'an Academy is really not what it looks like." I have collected the plaque with my own inscription, there are only three of the four major academies left, and I have inscribed a plaque for your Nanhu Academy, and I am making it. When I did, I asked Professor Wu to send it over. ”

The plaque inscribed by the prefect of Zhang indicates that Nanhu Academy has entered the list of the four major academies.

Fu Zhenyu thought about what he was going to do next with Governor Zhang, so he thanked him and did not refuse. Governor Zhang had to ask her about her progress, Fu Zhenyu answered them one by one, and went to the back house to see Mrs. Gu, so he went to continue his efforts.

Time flies, that is, knowing that Fu Zhenyu has sent a letter to Fu Shanchang, Mrs. Lin still decided to go south - not only the little girl, her eldest daughter has been gone for more than ten years, she wants to take a look.

Sent Mrs. Lin, made do with her birthday, and heard that someone from the capital was coming. Fu Zhenyu lost his pen and ink, and went to see people without changing his clothes, but he was from the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion.

It was Gu Yongyan's little servant who came to see Fu Zhenyu, and after presenting the gift list prepared by Mrs. Fang, the young man began to think: "The fifth master has been promoted, his ranking is not obvious, and he doesn't want to participate in the next year's examination." Originally, he was going to come back, but he asked his wife to stay, and he had to be busy with the affairs of the cangfuzi, so the fifth master sent the little one to come to tell Miss Fu in person, and he would not come to the academy this year. The fifth master also said that there are some things that are inconvenient to say in his heart, so he specially called the small one to come over. The girl wanted to know something, just ask. ”

Since he was a person sent by Gu Yongyan, Fu Zhenyu pressed his concern for Cang Zijian, and asked Gu Yongyan first: "After taking the ninety-nine exams, what can Yongyan say?" ”

The little guy smiled: "The fifth master said that this ranking is excellent. ”

Ninety-nine, it sounds pretty good. The important thing is that Gu Yongyan can still laugh at himself, which shows that his mood is not lost because of his bad ranking.

In fact, Gu Yongyan's mood is not only not bad, but very good.

Three years ago, he was still in the camp, grinding Fan Pavilion Master in various ways, and asked Fan Pavilion Master to persuade his father. In the past three years, although he has been running around, he finally officially started to raise his career, took the first case, became a gifted student, and won the township test, which is definitely the first in Xungui.

Ninety-nine, a bit low?

But Gu Yongyan is only eighteen years old this year, okay!

Not to mention anything else, Mrs. Fang, who cultivates and reads the family, is extremely satisfied! Therefore, when Gu Yongyan asked the little maid to deliver a letter to Fu Zhenyu, she scavenged a lot of good things from her dowry; Mrs. Shizi, who has only been out of the door for a year, followed suit. As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made a move, a cart full of things was delivered.

After finishing Gu Yongyan, Fu Zhenyu asked Cang Zijian.

"What's the situation with my senior brother?"

Cang Zijian has done a lot of things in the capital, and the little girl didn't know which one she asked, so she said: "Fu Fuzi knows something, and he wants to ask the little one, so it's good to talk about it carefully." ”

Fu Zhenyu heard the meaning of the words, so he naturally refused to say it, and only asked the little guy to start from the beginning.

The little guy thought for a moment and said, "Please prepare more tea for Master Fu." ”

A posture of a long talk.

Fu Zhenyu couldn't cry or laugh, and asked, "It's been a long journey, but you want to rest first?" ”

The little guy grinned and began to talk about things, and Tao Li took the initiative to make high-quality tea and brought two pots up.

Although there is the help of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, it is most important for Cang Zijian to get the Sacred Heart.

One hundred and twenty years after the founding of the Holy Dynasty, he is now the tenth emperor. Among them, Taizu and Taizong reigned for 50 years. The remaining emperors reigned for less than ten years on average, and died at an average age of less than forty.

It can be said that in the hearts of the courtiers, the royal family has a short life. Today, I am thirty years old, and although I am in good health, I really can't say anything about this matter. Yes, everyone is urging Lichu.

When I noticed it, I only felt like I was cursed, so I naturally didn't want to.

Seizing this, Cang Zijian wrote a letter in his hand, which was handed to Jinshang by the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

The content, the Marquis of Zhenyuan naturally looked at it first.

In Cang Zijian's excerpt, he frankly said that Wenchen forced Lichu, although he was afraid that the prince would enter school too late, but he wanted to be the future emperor and seek benefits for his own family. Therefore, he suggested that the emperor enlighten both princes at the same time. The two brothers are only one year apart, and at the same time they are enlightened, and the eldest prince is one year older, so he will definitely not suffer. The important thing is that the two of them are in the same division, which can make Wenchen who wants to stand in line hesitate.

However, the courtiers would have opposed this plan.

Since Taizong, among the princes of the Holy Dynasty, only the prince was raised, and the other princes were raised as pigs. For this reason, Cang Zijian's suggestion is to modify the prince's vassal system, only the king, not the fief; The palace guards were reduced from 3,000 to 1,000.

Of course, the courtiers still won't agree.

What Cangzijian means is to point the spearhead from the prince to the issue of the prince's upbringing, and from the upbringing to the vassal monarchy. All in all, this way must change - anyway, Taizu's sons were not raised like this.

In the last sentence, in all dynasties, there have been emperors who reformed and changed the law.

What else does Emperor Tongqing not understand?

It's just that if he wants to be such an emperor, he needs someone to support him. The Marquis of Zhenyuan is a military general and cannot afford this position. As for Cang Zijian, it is the emperor who wants to use it, and he is too young to be one, and he has only started at this age, which is really too late.

Emperor Tongqing regretted that he received the recital the next day, and the left capital Yushi Liang Hao played, and the establishment of the prince could be postponed, and the enlightenment of the two princes could not be delayed!

One stone startles a thousand waves.

Emperor Tongqing is still not at ease, Liang Hao is too old, Cangzijian is too tender, and there is a fault in the middle.

Until the end of the cabinet, Wang Zhen, who was also the secretary of the household department, proposed the reform of the vassal king, and Emperor Tongqing held two copies of the concert and slowly entered the court step by step, opening the prelude to the dispute between the monarch and the minister.
