Chapter 9: Transformation
"It's so immature!"
In the council hall, many uncles of the family were seated, Yang Ze's second uncle, Yang Yuanzheng, who was the father of Yang Wenyuan, finally couldn't help but speak, he was born as a general, and he didn't shout and drink Yang Ze who didn't like his eyes, and he usually took care of his shortcomings, but he just thought that Yang Ze, as the son of the family, was actually inferior to some young people in the clan, and the more he thought about it at the moment, the more he blushed and thickened his neck, and said, "As the prince of the Hou Mansion, this is how you deal with it?"
After that, Yang Yuanzheng looked at Yang Ze's father and said unceremoniously, "This is the son you taught, what do you want to explain what his naughty and stupid brain thought in front of everyone?"
Yang Yuanzheng's words unceremoniously stabbed Yang's father, if it was usual, I am afraid that there would be a lot of inappropriateness, but at the moment, the uncle next to him, Yang Weiming, also kept a straight face and did not say a word, Yang Weiming is a scholar of His Majesty's close ministers, and his temperament is naturally extraordinary, but just looking at his cloudy face, he knows that he is also dissatisfied with this matter. Acquiesced in his behavior.
And there were several family uncles around with different expressions, some shook their heads and sighed at Yang Ze, some had indifferent expressions, and some looked at Yang Ze with a little sympathy. After all, not only will he be punished by the door, but from the outside, almost his good prospects for marrying Dong Xuan in the future will be ruined. Others, they feel that it affects their face when they usually travel.
In the face of Yang Yuanzheng's harsh words, Yang Ze's father, Yang Hongyuan, moved his lips, as if he thought of the outside public opinion that the Hou Mansion might face next, and he was unable to defend himself again.
Yang Ze, who should have lowered his head and was silent on such an occasion where the family bigwigs gathered, raised his head in the slight daze of everyone, looked at his second uncle with clear eyes, and said, "Correct you." First of all, I'm not stupid, and I don't have any weird naughty ideas. At that time, under that circumstance, since Zhao Shizi of Changchun Houfu exonerated Dong Xuan in person, she would have borrowed this step no matter what. If the eldest brother and the second brother force her to express her position, maybe it won't be just an understatement now, that is, the eldest brother and the second brother will fight with the prince of Changchun Houfu, the great-grandson Cai Daolin who participated in politics, Cao Chenggang and others from Zhongshutai! That's what you want to see?"
Yang Ze's words suddenly made the anger of those family elders who had originally contradicted Yang Yuanzheng without permission be suddenly suppressed by the ensuing anger. It also made the people around him look at his expression in surprise. As long as you think about it carefully, many family elders are also quite qualified figures outside, and they have to admit that Yang Ze's words have a lot of truth.
Don't look at Yang Que and Yang Wenyuan as outstanding representatives of the family, but they are young people after all, and they still have a bloody side, if they really fight with Cai Daolin, who participated in politics in the kingdom, Cao Chenggang and others from Zhongshutai, I am afraid that what everyone is discussing today is the brawl between the nephews of many bigwigs in the Kingdom of Yang in the outside world. The kind of prestige that has fallen in the royal capital is far from being able to settle the current situation.
Yang Yuanzheng was blocked by Yang Ze's words, his face was red, obviously angry, glared at Yang Ze, and snorted coldly, "Don't we know who you are since you were a child, you have done something wrong and chewed your tongue and quibbled." Where can there be such scheming thoughts!"
There was another squirming sound.
"Then have you ever heard that there was a fight and bloodshed on the building boat, have you ever heard that the prince of Qi Chunhou cut off Zhao Jin's head with a sword? Have you ever heard that the outside world insulted our Qi Chunhou Mansion for bullying and despising people?" Yang Ze didn't look at Yang Yuanzheng's cold eyes at all, but looked around and glanced at the audience, and a bearing that did not belong to his age was highlighted, "No, what you only heard was how the third prince of Qi Chunhou was, sighing that I was stubborn and had a bad fate."
The chamber fell silent. It's not that he was shocked by the content of Yang Ze's words, but because of his previous kind of moment, he jumped up and blushed as soon as he was misunderstood, which made the image that even if people finally found out that he was misunderstood, he would not give him a good face, suddenly gone, suddenly no more. Instead, think clearly and go one way at a time. Does this still look like the Yang Ze in Pingyue? Could it be that he has really grown up and enlightened?
Yang Ze ignored the people who were still secretly surprised, and finally looked at Yang Ye, the "Lionheart Hou" who had never opened his mouth on the upper seat, and said, "I know that the Hou Mansion is based on my position, and many uncles and elders present are thinking about me, hoping that I will have a good future in life, and I would like to thank the uncles for their care!"
"When I first came forward, I already guessed that this might happen later. Now like this, the outside world will only say how I, Yang Ze, don't know how to cherish it, and don't know how to grovel for a while with the prestige background of the Qichun Marquis Mansion in the world, in exchange for happiness and health in the second half of my life, but that is not the life I want, so even if I am poked in the backbone by the outside, I am very happy. ”
"I am an alienated and casual person, why be more restrained, even if I marry a beautiful wife like a fairy, I have no status in her heart, and the uncles and elders present are worried about me for the rest of my life, it is better to be crazy and open-minded, and I have come to this point, no matter what the turmoil in the outside world, I will also bear it, no matter what the elders are now punishing me, I am willing to bear it. ”
Although it has the flavor of self-abandonment, it is free and easy, generous, and contains sincerity that has never been there.
Not only did Yang's father Yang Hongyuan look at his son, who seemed to have grown up and matured in an instant, with tears in his eyes. It was also said that the countless uncles and elders of the Hou Mansion around him were all moved, and some even had tears in their eyes.
Even his grandfather, Yang Ye, the Marquis of Qichun, looked at Yang Ze and nodded slightly. It turned out to be a silent approval.
Yang Ze's move has taken on the bad words of the outside world, no matter how those people poke the Hou Mansion in the future, they will only say how he is a stubborn son, but it is a pity that the prestige of the Hou Chunhou is so much, etc., he will gather all those negative remarks on himself, and will never lose the prestige of the Hou Mansion and the family in the royal capital.
Moreover, among the many elders present, there are also many obscure memories of quarreling with Yang Ze and pulling down their faces, and even falling out, but they were moved by Yang Ze's heart-to-heart for the elders this time, and they were inexplicably excited for a while because of the contrast between before and after. Some people couldn't help but let out an astringent voice, "Yang Ze, you have finally grown up, okay, the third uncle is very pleased."
Some people were deeply touched by these words and Yang Ze's responsibility for a while, "'I am a person who is alienated and casual, it is better to be open-minded and be alone', a good style is yes, I have no intention of cultivating the Heavenly Dao, and I have no extraordinary talent." This is not his fault, his wish. A little boy is already burdened with too much pressure from the outside world, how can we, as elders, impose blame on him and reprimand him many times. I'm ashamed, isn't this big Hou Mansion able to tolerate a person with a surname who yearns for freedom?"
Even the second uncle Yang Yuanzheng, who had stared at Yang Ze with a red face before, no matter how much he disdained Yang Ze in his heart, he had to admit that he was moved by him at this moment, sat back in his seat, and didn't say too many words against his will.
From this point of view, although the matter started with Yang Ze at that time, it was Yang Ze's eldest brother and second brother who bore the brunt of the matter, and the three brothers were inseparable. If Yang Ze hadn't stood up to face Dong Xuan, I am afraid he would not have been able to resolve a battle that might cause an uproar.
Thinking about it this way, there was also an uncle in the middle who said, "According to me, at that time, Yang Ze's single-handed demarcation of the land was not because he was reckless, but it really showed the backbone and blood surname of the man in my Qichun Marquis Mansion." The second lady of the Dong family is good, but she must not look down on our third son, and now she is engaged to the alliance of Changchun Hou, swaying back and forth, such a daughter-in-law, don't do it! Yang Ze's hand is a reflection of the madness that has not been revealed in my Qichunhou Mansion for a long time! The true blood surname and courage of the men in my mansion. Oh, I want to think that Yang Kaitai, the great-ancestor of the prince of Qichun, swallowed thousands of miles in anger, and went down to the sixteen states of the southern Tartars, Anhui, Jin, Yanyun, and the sixteen states in one go. Could it be that our younger generations don't even have his backbone?"
These enthusiastic words caused a lot of responses at the scene.
Yang's father, Yang Hongyuan, patted the back of Yang Ze's hand from below, and finally felt relieved in his heart, and sighed, "You have finally grown up." ”
In the end, Qi Chunhou nodded slightly, with a rare smile on his face, looked around the audience, and said loudly, "Since this is the case, then that's it." The two granddaughters of the Dong Sima family are excellent, and I am also happy from the bottom of my heart, it is already a blessing for our Hou Mansion to have one of them, how can I expect the two of them to enter our Qichun Hou Mansion at the same time. There are no regrets about such a result. As for Yang Ze and Ze'er, it can be seen that you have matured a lot since this period of time, and the government will not be strict with you in the future. It's just that you have to be self-disciplined, and when you go to the New Year, the Chengren crown ceremony is approaching. The family rules cannot be abolished, as a prince, you still have to seek progress, and you must strive to break through the current cultivation dilemma. ”
"I understand, listen to my grandfather's teachings. Yang Ze said this naturally. However, it was the "grandpa" that was so natural, which made countless people in the mansion call him the high-ranking marquis, even the old lady, and at most the Qichun Marquis Yang Ye, who respectfully called his grandfather, was stunned. The people around were also slightly surprised by Yang Ze's changes before and after.
I just feel that this voice comes from the folk name in the market, but at the moment it is indescribably cordial and pleasant. Yang Ye's strong external spirit was quite grateful and relieved.
When the family meeting in the council hall was dispersed, many family elders who walked out still remembered the vivid impression that Yang Ze had reshaped in front of them. Compared with it, those miscellaneous winds and rains outside are nothing.
And this will inevitably turn the New Year, and it will be necessary to spend this not long late winter, and the Chengren crown ceremony under the breath of spring will come.
Yang Ze is still waiting for the next spring in the grass and the warbler is flying.
