Zhao Zongshi is nominally a student of Taixue, but in fact he is not studying in Taixue, or he has very little time in Taixue, and Taixue is just a communication platform for him.

Taixue has always been a gathering place for the children of powerful people in the capital, and through the platform of Taixue, Zhao Zongshi can make friends with many children of powerful officials and eunuchs and expand his contacts.

However, after two years in Taixue, Zhao Zongshi was dismayed to find that the connections he made in Taixue had not changed his situation, and his situation was still embarrassing, and it was gradually diluted and marginalized over time.

Summing up the reason, Zhao Zongshi also had to admit that he thought too simply, there are many children of powerful people and children of official eunuchs among the students, but it does not mean that they have the ability to change the political situation and change their family's minds.

After discovering that he had taken the wrong path, Zhao Zongshi became a little disheartened with Taixue, and the number of times he came to Taixue became less and less, but since he accidentally met Fan Ning at the beginning of the year, he found that his fate began to change gradually.

Fan Ning pulled him into the Strange Stone Pavilion, and he got acquainted with the Zhu family, and got the support of Zhu Yuanfeng, who had strong financial resources, under Fan Ning's planning, Zhu Yuanfeng caught up with the Cao family by building the Cao Building through joint shares, and pushed Zhao Zongshi in front of the Cao family again.

Tomorrow is the seventieth birthday of Cao Cong, the old man of the Cao family, and Zhao Zongshi also got an invitation for the first time, the Cao family invited him and his wife Gao to go to the Cao Mansion to celebrate his birthday, you know, the Cao family has been cautious to keep a distance from him, and this time the Cao family's ice against him has melted.

With the support of the Cao family politically and the strong support of Zhu Yuanfeng financially, Zhao Zongshi has a glimmer of hope for his future.

At the end of the day, all of this change started with getting to know Fanning.

"A-Ning, I'm sorry, I'm late!"

Zhao Zongshi walked over quickly, he learned the names of Zhu Yuanfeng and Zhu Pei, and also called Fan Ning's milk name, so that their relationship could be closer.

Fan Ning smiled slightly: "I also just arrived, Brother Zhao, please take a seat!" ”

Zhao Zongshi sat down opposite Fan Ning, Fan Ning ordered five or six dishes, and ordered a pot of good wine, and after a while, the bartender brought a pot of sake first.

Zhao Zongshi snatched the wine jug, and said with a smile while pouring wine: "I heard that you bought a house?" ”

Fan Ning smiled and nodded, "Since you want to live in the capital for a long time, you can't rent someone else's house all the time!" ”

"Well, where is the house?" Zhao Zongshi asked with a smile again.

Fan Ning pointed out the window, "I walked two miles away, and next to the Feiyun Bridge, there was an eight-acre middle house. ”

Zhao Zongshi thought about it for a while, and suddenly woke up, "But the Yang family's Yong Martyr Building? ”

"Brother Zhao also knows?"

Zhao Zongshi nodded again and again, "Of course I know, that building is exactly the same as the Qinggong Building of the Imperial Palace, it was specially allowed by Emperor Taizong to be built by the Yang family, and the Yang family built two, one is in Tianbo Yang Mansion, and the other is in Feiyun Bridge, Tianbo Yang Mansion is called Yongwu Building, and this side is called Yonglie Building, I didn't expect them to sell this house, but it was also expected." ”

"Why is it expected?" Fanning asked with interest.

"I also heard from a student friend, it is said that after this brave building was built, the Yang family began to go downhill, some feng shui masters said that the two buildings in the north and south of the Yang family are mutually restrictive and disperse the luck of the Yang family, but this is a royal building, and it cannot be changed or demolished at will, so many people say that the Yang family will sell the house of Feiyun Bridge sooner or later, of course, this is just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not."

Fan Ning smiled: "It turned out to be the building of the imperial gift, Brother Zhao didn't say it, I really don't know, but I have changed its name to Cuiyun Building, and it has nothing to do with the Yang family." ”

The two drank a glass of wine, and the topic turned to business, Fan Ning muttered and said, "Tomorrow's birthday celebration in Caofu, Brother Zhao is going!" ”

Zhao Zongshi nodded, "I received the invitation, at first I thought it was because of my wife, but then I learned that it had nothing to do with my wife, it was the Cao family who invited me, my invitation number is ninth, my wife doesn't have such a big face." ”

"Congratulations to Brother Zhao first, you have a good start."

Zhao Zongshi took a look lightly, "You invited me alone today, it won't be just to congratulate!" ”

"Of course not!"

Fanning shook his head, "I invited you today for two things, the first thing, I want to tell you, why did the Cao family give you an invitation with a number nine number?" This reason is important, and if you don't know, you will suffer a lot in the future. ”

Zhao Zongshi said with a solemn expression: "This is also what I can't figure out, at first I thought it was Old Man Zhu who pulled the strings, but then I felt that it wasn't like that, but what is the reason?" ”

"I didn't call Old Man Zhu today because I was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, of course he is very important to you, and his financial resources are the foundation for you to go up step by step in the future, but the Cao family wants to see you differently, it will never be because of the cooperation of a Cao Lou, you have to understand this."

"I understand!" Zhao Zongshi did not hesitate to do this.

Fan Ning said slowly: "The reason why the Cao family suddenly wants to look at you differently is because of the palace struggle, you may not know that Concubine Zhang Guifei also plans to adopt a clan child as a stepson." ”

"Ahh

Zhao Zongshi's eyes widened suddenly, this news really shocked him.

Fan Ning didn't give Zhao Zongshi time to digest the news, he continued: "This matter must be looked at from two directions, one is the crisis of the Cao family, once the child adopted by Concubine Zhang becomes the prince, then the position of Empress Cao will be in danger, this is the crisis faced by the Cao family.

But on the other hand, Zhang Guifei's adoption of a child shows that the possibility of the Son of Heaven having a new son is no longer very large, no one knows this better than the pillow person of the Son of Heaven, and the Cao family also understands it, so they see a glimmer of hope, which is the real reason why you are looked at differently by the Cao family again. ”

Zhao Zongshi was deeply shocked, and sat there motionless, falling into a long contemplation.

Fan Ning was silent for a moment and said: "There is one more thing for me to tell you, in the future, I will support you behind the scenes through the Zhu family, in public, I will be fellow travelers with you, this is for your good, we can't let the Son of Heaven misunderstand, you will spare no effort for that gold medal for free-calling." ”

..........

Zhao Zongshi was still immersed in thinking and couldn't extricate himself, Fan Ning didn't interrupt his train of thought anymore, so he settled the account, and at the same time ordered a dozen dishes and a pot of wine and packed away.

The wall of the new house has not yet been installed, and more than a dozen workers have gone out to eat, and Fanning has set up two tables of wine and food in the inner house, entertaining Ju Pei, who has worked hard all morning, and her two helpers, a sword plum, and a little winter.

"You guy still have a conscience, you haven't forgotten us!"

Zhu Pei smiled and ate a piece of pork ribs and said: "I'm hungry today, supervise the workers before and after, you ask Sister Jian and Xiaodong, if it weren't for me, they almost turned the wall upside down." ”

Xiao Dong really made a lot of efforts today, and got Zhu Pei's affirmation, she hurriedly patted her ass and said: "It's true, they installed the statue of Lamei in the face, and the girl was furious and forced them to turn outward." ”

Fanning was pleasantly surprised: "There are still statues on the shadow wall?" ”

"Of course there is, it's still a master's hand!"

Zhu Pei said triumphantly: "It is the first blooming picture of Lamei carved by the imperial craftsman Zheng Yanxun, he is particularly good at characters, my brother's carving was originally an imitation of his works, most of his works are in the court, you actually spent five hundred yuan to buy it, you didn't see the regret on the face of the shopkeeper Chen after learning the truth, he later went back in a fit of anger, it is estimated that he is still lying down!" ”

Before Juppé could finish speaking, Fanning dropped the bowl and ran away.

Fan Ning ran to the shadow wall in one breath, carefully looked at the carving on the shadow wall, and sure enough, it was the work of Zheng Yanxun, a master of carving in the early Song Dynasty, which made him very surprised, it was like buying a porcelain vase at a stall, only to find out that the porcelain vase was an official kiln after returning home, and there was a feeling of picking up a big leak.

If this shadow wall is sold publicly in the capital where there is no shortage of money, it will be sold at least for more than 10,000 yuan, and it is estimated that the original owner does not know its preciousness, so he treats it as an ordinary shadow wall.

First of all, this kind of stone is not ordinary, it is cyan granite, this kind of stone is also called 10,000 years of bluestone, the color is long-lasting, the stone is solid, it is not easy to weather, it is native to the area of Zhending Mansion, and it is especially suitable for large families to make shadow walls.

The branches of the plum tree carved on it are vigorous, the petals are lifelike, the buds contain but do not spit out, although it has a history of 100 years, but there is still a simple and desolate atmosphere, and the old plum next to the ancient temple seems to be about to come out.

In the small words of the stone carving, 'Yeonxun was engraved for Zilu's new house', it is really Zheng Yanxun's work, and Fanning was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

At this time, Juppé walked up to him and smiled: "Not bad! If you take it out for auction, you may not be able to buy 10,000 guan, if it is seen by my stone fan grandfather, you let him give 30,000 guan, he will be willing. ”

Fanning's heart moved, "Jupe, do you think you can use it to exchange .......?"

"No way!"

Without waiting for Fan Ning to finish speaking, Zhu Pei categorically denied it, "This piece of photo wall is placed here, it won't be sold for any amount of money, and it won't be exchanged, the Cuiyun Peak you want, I will find a way to ask my grandfather for it!" ”

Fanning asked happily, "What can you do?" ”

"You don't care about this, I know my grandfather's weakness, I'm responsible for asking him for it!"
