Chapter 198: Arrange the Way Back
In early May, Shen Yuhong's wife Shen Cheng gave birth to a son, and the Shuangfei courtyard was jubilant, which should be regarded as the best congratulatory gift to celebrate Shen Zejing's appointment as Jingzhao Shaoyin. (8\0\Books\House High-quality update)
Before he took up the post of Jingzhao, he added a grandson, which is a good sign. Shen Huashan was also very happy, named his great-grandson Shen Qingmin, and asked Shen Yu's family to prepare well and make the three baptismal ceremonies festive and proper.
Dali Temple Cheng Fangyuan's family was also very happy to receive the good news, and Cheng Fangyuan's three baptism ceremonies for his grandson were also extremely grand.
Shen Qingmin has not yet been a full moon, and Shen Zejing has taken up the post of Jingzhao Shaoyin, and officially began to serve in Jingzhao Mansion.
When they met for the first time, Jingzhao Yin Chu Shixiu neither attached too much importance to Shen Zejing nor was too indifferent, but only told Shen Zejing to be loyal to his duties and get along well with his subordinates, so he ordered Shen Zejing to greet his subordinates by himself.
Shen Zejing met the officials of Jingzhao Mansion one by one, and also had a general understanding of the appearance and temperament of each official. Wei Fa's eagle eyes and nose were hooked, and he didn't seem to be an easy person to get along with, but as for the six Cao Cao military officers such as Gong, Cang, Bing, and Law, they didn't leave any special impression on Shen Zejing.
In general, everyone was smiling and happy.
With Shen Zejing taking up the post of Jingzhao Shaoyin, Shen Huashan is also thinking about another thing, that is, his own Zhishi.
According to the speed of Shen Zejing's promotion, coupled with the plans of the Shen family and the Yu family, plus the reasons for Concubine Rong and the twelve princes in the palace, it should not take five years for Shen Zejing to be able to live in the third grade.
This means that Shen Huashan will have to be a scholar at that time. According to the regulations of Daguan officials, the children and grandchildren live in three grades, and the fathers and ancestors avoid officials.
Therefore, Shen Huashan felt that the problem of Zhishi should be put on the agenda of thinking, and before he became Zhishi, he had to arrange the future of his children, grandchildren and nephews.
According to Yu Jinzhi's speculation, within five years, the world will be in chaos. So Shen Huashan was very worried. For a family like the Shen family, the overall situation is the most important, if the overall situation is unstable, then the Shen family must be deeply affected.
Five years, five years will pass in the blink of an eye, if the world is in chaos. Where does the Shen family settle down? For the long-term planning of his children and grandchildren, he doesn't know when the battle for succession and the world will be in chaos. What can we do for our children and grandchildren?
In times of chaos, people are like mustard, no matter how many schemes and calculations there are, it is useless! The first and most important thing is to preserve the power of the Shen family to be able to thrive.
How can we preserve the family and continue to prosper? As the patriarch of the Shen family and an important minister of officialdom, Shen Huashan was cautious in his thinking about this issue, so that he failed to make a decision for a long time.
This is not such a trivial matter as getting an official position or marrying a family for your children and grandchildren. It is the direction that the Shen family will take in the future! As the patriarch, he wants to point out this direction and lead the clansmen to unswervingly move in this direction, once this direction is wrong, then the Shen family will be doomed!
So he repeatedly scrutinized and rehearsed in his heart, and didn't dare to make a decision easily. His face has not been good for several days, and he, who is known for his kindness, also reprimanded several young officials of Jixian Hall with a straight face.
Shen Huashan thinks about a lot of things. Shen Zejing was appointed as Jingzhao Shaoyin, which means that he can only stay in Jingzhao in the past few years, the pattern is actually restricted, what he can do is to continue to accumulate official qualifications and prestige, and keep going up!
The pattern of the Shen family cannot be limited to Jingzhao, one is because the Shen family must open up new fields, only relying on Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing of Jingzhao cannot achieve the prosperity of a family, and the Shen family must have backup support, thinking of next year's Spring Festival, Shen Huashan plans to let the Shen family's sons and nephews come out, otherwise if he and Shen Zejing have changed, there will be no one who can connect the Shen family;
Second, in the event of turmoil, this Jingzhao is the first place to bear the brunt, that is, the attacks and losses suffered will be the greatest! This is a fatal crisis for a family! Therefore, the Shen family's vital power must not appear in Jingzhao.
So where is the Shen family going to create a situation? Shen Huashan's first consideration was Jiangnan, where the Shen family's roots were located. Jiangnan is rich, but the terrain is not dangerous, and it plays a huge role in the time of peace, if the world is in chaos, it is really hard to say.
Shen Huashan remembered what Yu Jinzhi said that the south could be defended. South, where is the south? Ganzhou? Xining Road? Or Lingnan Road? Shen Huashan frowned and thought.
He took a look at the map, and then thought of the connection between Xining Road, Lingnan Road and Jiangnan Road, and remembered that Shen Zegao and others were in Lingnan, and even remembered the genius craftsman Hu Zhaochang the year before last, and gradually had an idea in his heart.
Although the specific direction cannot be decided for a while, the Shen family can make some preparations early! Once you've done it, you'll be able to determine your future direction.
Thinking of this, Shen Huashan smiled slightly, and finally made up his mind: It seems that he has to go to Jiangnan for a few more letters.
Shen Ning, who was in Qingzhu Ju, didn't know Shen Huashan's thoughts, she was looking at the letter sent by Ying Nantu from Xining Dao, and after reading it, she showed a faint smile and felt very happy.
I know it.
It's been almost half a year since Ying Nantu left Jingzhao. In the past six months, the letters have been written every half a month, and they have never stopped.
Shen Ning was also curious about how he sent the letter to Jingzhao! After all, Xining Road and Jingzhao are far apart, and it is even more dangerous. How much manpower and money did it cost him to send so many letters from Xining Dao?! Does the Qingping Marquis Mansion have so much money to provide for him?
I really can't figure it out, I think I have to ask.
Thinking of Xining Dao, Shen Ning inevitably remembered his cousin Shen Yuyi, who had not seen him for a long time, Shen Yuyi's role in Xiyan was becoming more and more important, and the work of Xiyan's stronghold was also done very smoothly, and Ruliu often received news from Xiyan.
Sometimes, when the court officials had not yet learned about Xiyan's situation, Shen Yuyi would find a way to pass the news back, and he could get ahead of the court scouts.
For example, the Shen family learned that Sima Hao, the prince of Western Yan, who sent an envoy to Dayong last year, is now the prince of Western Yan, and for example, Sima Zheng, the emperor of Western Yan, seems to be seriously ill, and everyone in Yandu is in danger.
From the thirty-sixth year of Changtai to almost three years now, Shen Yuyi has not returned to Jingzhao. Shen Yuyi's biological mother, Shen Zeyuan's Aunt Wang, is already suspicious!
However, she did not suspect that Shen Yuyi had gone to Xiyan, but suspected that something had happened to him a long time ago, otherwise he would not have not come back for more than three years, although there was a letter, but it could also be a forgery.
Aunt Wang once cried and said to Shen Zeyuan: "No matter what, I must see my son come back safely during the New Year, otherwise I won't live!" ”
Shen Yuyi is Aunt Wang's only hope. As a mother, she would say this, everyone in the Shen family who knows the inside story knows that Shen Zejing is already thinking about the candidate to replace Shen Yuyi.
It is impossible to find another household registration document in Xiyan, and now I can only find a Shen family member who is the same age and face as Shen Yuyi to take over Xiyan's work.
This is not difficult to find, Shen Yutong, the son and nephew of the Shen family, has already come to Jingzhao from Hangzhou, and is now receiving training from Ruliu. It's the end of the year. The Shen family will find a way to send Shen Yutong to Xiyan, like this. Shen Yuyi can come back to Jingzhao.
Thinking of Shen Yuyi's difficulties in Xining Road, Shen Ning couldn't help but have a trace of admiration. This cousin has indeed done a lot of things for the Shen family. It is precisely because of these people that fate will definitely change in this life, right?
Shen Ning answered himself, yes! It's changed! 's father was promoted to a fourth-rank official, which is a world of difference from his previous life when he was demoted to Nanling!
She is no longer the fifth princess. My grandfather served in Zhongshu Province, and the situation in this life was much better than in the previous life! Every time he thought of this, Shen Ning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
It finally makes sense to be reborn on your own. The trajectory of this life is no longer the same as the previous life. When his father was promoted, Shen Ning began to think that his grandfather Shen Huashan would be a priest in a few years.
has been the queen for three years, and she is well aware of Dayong's official system. Judging from this situation, my father can become a third-grade official before the age of forty-five, which is an extremely prominent thing in Dayong!
Of course, it will also be greatly questioned and tested. If it was my grandfather, my father would have become the leader of the Shen family on the official road, and my father would have a great responsibility!
Presumably with the support of his grandfather, and so many nephews of the Shen family, his father will definitely make the Shen family prosperous like his grandfather.
A family, what they are most afraid of is that there is no successor, before their grandfather Zhishi, the sons and nephews of the Shen family should also accumulate official reputation in Dayong, Shen Ning thought of this.
In the thirty-seventh year of Changtai, Shen Huashan pressed the Shen family's sons and nephews not to go out, at that time in order to maintain obscurity, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the courtiers and Emperor Changtai, and also to avoid the courtiers and the princes.
Now that the situation has changed, Shen Ning thinks that this should be changed, just taking advantage of the spring of next year to put the Shen family's children and nephews in the officialdom. When she told her master Yu Zhengdao what she thought, it made him laugh.
"Very nice! Take one step, look at three steps, you can think from your father's ascension to what happened after your grandfather's Zhishi, and your vision is already very long-term. But I think the in-laws have been thinking about this for a long time, so you don't need to talk to him. Yu Zhengdao was still very satisfied with Shen Ning, a student, and affirmed her idea.
"Presumably, before the master of the in-laws family, this battle for the heir should also come to an end. As long as the candidate for the prince is settled, he can free up his hands to deal with the chaos in the world. The West Yan Affair and the Northern Xinjiang Affair are all important matters, but they can only be done step by step. With the pattern of Jingzhao, it can be guaranteed for three years. Yu Zhengdao explained.
He added a lot of news from Ruliu, but he didn't expect that the Shen family also had a stronghold in Xiyan. Emperor Xiyan is seriously ill and the Son of Heaven has changed, this is a dangerous signal, once the new monarch of Xiyan ascends the throne, it is unknown whether he will maintain peace with Dayong!
After two consecutive years of natural disasters, the people of Northern Xinjiang have almost not received any grains, and now there are 50,000 soldiers of the Anbei Protectorate and 100,000 soldiers of Longyouwei who are deterred, if Gu Dazu is opposed, Northern Xinjiang is in danger! Compared with Shen Ning's worries about what happened after Shen Huashan Zhishi, Yu Zhengdao thinks that what happened before Zhishi is more important.
"It is inevitable that people will have old age, and it is impossible to live in an official position for a long time. We should all know this and be fearless. If you retreat, someone will always pick it up, and what will happen after that is unpredictable. What can be done is to prepare before Zhishi, and to prepare properly, in order to ensure that there is no major change after Zhishi, just a proper transition and alternation. Yu Zhengdao continued to mention Shen Ning.
In his opinion, anything can be used as an example of teaching, so Shen Huashan's future Zhishi can also be used as an example.
"Thank you Uncle for your teachings. Ning Er didn't worry about it, she just felt it. What my uncle said was that before my grandfather gave office, it was more important and that we had to be prepared. Shen Ning replied respectfully, grateful in his heart.
Yu Zhengdao's heart for her teaching, she is very clear and very taught. She was convinced of Yu Zhengdao's words. At present, it is the most important thing, and it is the most important thing to prepare the back road. Be prepared, you can be safe!
In the blink of an eye, the summer of June came, the Shen family and Jingzhao were calm, and the Jingzhao family began to prepare for the annual summer vacation again.
With the scorching heat of June, there is also a faintly fermenting crisis, but it is hidden deeply, and no one can detect it.
