Chapter 179: The Imperial Grandson politely rejected the county lord
"This ...... It's all your sister Yanping. Zhang Cairen saw that the grandson had opened his mouth, and hurriedly laughed:
"Yanping at the Lichun Palace banquet, I fell in love with a four-grade official, I also inquired about it in the past two days, this official has not yet been married, I just want to see if His Royal Highness the Taisun can say a good word, and then say a few good words for Yanping in front of the emperor, and match Yanping with a county horse."
"Is Yanping and Xuan? Jiaxing is older than Yanping, and he hasn't married yet, I'm afraid that the emperor's grandfather won't mess up the order like this. "Zhang Cairen is a bit talented, but sometimes he is too shrewd, and Zhu Zhanji only said perfunctorily.
"That's true...... However, Yanping heard that this official was appreciated by His Royal Highness Taisun, and he was afraid that if it was delayed for another two years, he would be promoted and his wife would be married, wouldn't Yanping be sad? If it weren't for the difficulty, how would I dare to trouble His Royal Highness the Grand Sun. ”
"Yes, yes! It's because there are two sisters in front of me who haven't been married yet, but Yanping can't wait. As soon as Yanping County's main words came out, Zhu Zhanji smiled and said:
"You little girl, don't be ashamed to say that? This is in front of me, if my father and mother hear it, it will be terrible, Zhang Cairen will have to discipline it. ”
Yanping had no choice but to blush and not speak, and pinched his mother in his sleeve again.
Zhang Cairen had no choice but to say with a thick face: "Your Majesty, you can actually wait, Yanping will not be married until next year, and when she gets married, it will be two or three years." But His Royal Highness Taisun can say yes for his sister first, you nod here, how dare you say a 'no' word over there? ”
"That'...... Tell me, which official is Yanping looking at? Let you be so concerned. Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"It's Hu Yanjin in your James Mansion!" Yanping hurriedly said.
"Huyanjin?...... No way! Zhu Zhanji blurted out.
"Why not? Brother Taisun, Yanping has never begged you, don't you want to help me with my life's events? Jiaxing can bring people into the palace, why do you only say 'no' when you come to me? ”
Zhu Zhanji agreed to Jiaxing that day and asked Hua Qiao to enter the palace to teach her to beat stones, and the next day he went to his mother and asked Hua Qiao for a walking waist card for a female official in the East Palace.
This waist card is much more valuable in the palace than the office waist card of his grandson Donggong, this female official can not only enter and exit the palace, but even walk around the palace at will.
This was originally the princess's dowry female official and confidant female official to get it, but now the princess came to ask for it, and the princess gave two instructions and agreed.
It's good that Yanping didn't mention it.
Zhu Zhanji sneered in his heart: I love my own sister, do you want to compare this?
He said with a straight face: "I said no, because Hu Yanjin is preparing to be promoted to James Mansion James, and he is already going through the process, James is a third-grade official, and officials above the third grade cannot be assigned to the county lord and princess, this is the rule set by Emperor Taizu, and you don't know it." ”
Xiao Zhong, who was standing not far behind Zhu Zhanji, sniffed: Is there such a thing? Your Highness, you are really quick.
The county lord of Yanping was in a hurry, grabbed Zhu Zhanji's sleeve and said, "Brother Taisun, stop it quickly, as long as the holy decree has not been issued, he is not a third-grade official!" ”
"Yanping, the promotion of officials is a political matter, do you want the imperial brother to support you in politics?" Zhu Zhanji is colorful.
Seeing that His Royal Highness Taisun became serious, Zhang Cairen didn't dare to say more.
Zhu Zhanji saw that Yanping was sullen, and comforted: "It's not that the imperial brother won't help you, you are still young, you can still choose slowly, next time you have to tell the imperial brother earlier." ”
After Zhang Cairen left, Xiao Zhong stepped forward and asked quietly, "......What is the matter of promotion?"
"Tomorrow morning, I will mention it, as for Cheng James, he always has a tone in his voice, and Gu has long wanted to replace him and find him a three-grade idle position, which is not an insult to him." Zhu Zhanji said calmly:
"Hu Yanjin can do things, and he still needs to be used. The last time we met at the Pilgrimage, there was so much turmoil in the middle, and he also dealt with it, and Lone owed him a promotion. It's a pity that such a person is rationed to Yanping. ”
Hu Yanjin, who was still watching the lanterns with the buckwheat in the lamp market, didn't know that he had broken a few wickers and had accelerated a promotion by chance.
"What? You've been kicked out of the Bamboo Forest again? ”
In the teahouse, the buckwheat almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of tea. The last time I saw Xu Zhijin, he and Second Brother Xu had just moved to Zhulin Yaju.
"Well, I don't know why. The second brother also had a fight with someone, and one of his front teeth was knocked out, so he was unwilling to stay in Beijing, and took a carriage back to Baoying the next day. ”
Xu Zhijin didn't know where Hua Qiao lived, thinking that she should come out to visit the light market, so he came out to try his luck.
"And where did you live after that?" Fang Wanyan also asked with concern.
"At that time, only the abbot of Ankokuji took us in in a hurry, and now I live in Ankokuji."
Seeing that Xu Zhijin was calm and relaxed, he was not homeless. With poetry and books in his belly, Fang Wanyan suddenly felt moved by Xu Zhijin like this.
Hua Qiao suddenly knew why Second Brother Xu hurriedly returned to Baoying, not because he lost a front tooth, but because he was not used to living in a light temple.
"Anguo Temple is not far from where we live, if you want, you can move to me." Hu Yanjin already knew that his father was going to move to Zhulin Yaju tomorrow, and the east courtyard was quiet, which would not affect his study.
Xu Zhijin shook his head and said: "No, no, the conditions of Anguo Temple are very good, every day I hear the bells in the temple and the chanting of the monks in the morning and evening, and I feel very detached from the dust." I'm two months away, and I don't want to toss. ”
Since he was imprisoned in Yangzhou last time, he was determined to use what he had learned in his life to benefit the people of the Ming Dynasty, not seeking to be remembered for eternity, but only wishing that there would be no unjust and wrongful cases in his hands, and there would be no corruption and favoritism.
In Anguo Temple, when he was tired of reading, he often went to listen to the abbot talk about Zen, and the life insights in it were not comparable to the sage books.
Once, when he talked to the abbot about the shackles of the Baguwen, the abbot smiled and said:
"You see it as a shackle, it is the shackles of your thoughts, you take it as a rule, it is the wings of your thoughts. The world is so big, there is no lack of brilliance in the rules, but more often it disappears in the complaint.
Donor, whatever state you want the Ming Dynasty to reach, you should be that kind of leader. The Buddha said: If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Yes also. ”
If Xu Zhijin wants to become a leader in the legal system, he must be a rule-maker.
The more Hu Yanjin knew about Xu Zhijin, the more he felt that what he was going to do was going against the grain, and what the newly rising Ming Dynasty needed was stable development, not internal friction struggle.
The drums of war have been quietly beaten, but he has not yet found the direction of his efforts.
He looked at the kind girl beside him.
The mind is in turmoil.
