Chapter 155

Busy with the affairs in the yamen, Song Nan is also physically and mentally exhausted, but fortunately, the rules and regulations must come down, but it will be a lot more idle in the future, as long as the person in charge is grasped, this is the principle of the commander and the general, and the level management is worry-free and effort-saving.

While busy, Song Nan also suddenly discovered that the New Year of the eighteenth year of Hongzhi was also coming, and everyone in the family had begun to buy New Year's goods since then; On the side of the stone mill and stone mortar in the courtyard of the outer house, there are people busy grinding noodles and making rice every day, preparing to make rice cakes and meat dumplings.

Ye Fanggu rarely followed Song Nan outside, after Luo Fang died, Dongchang no longer dared to swagger in Zhengnanfang, watching Song Nan talk to those Jinyi Weiqi schools every day or write some terms at the desk, Ye Fanggu herself is also very boring, it is better to practice kung fu at home to accompany Song's mother, and Qingli Xiaoping and them are free to prepare New Year's goods.

The little county lord also came secretly several times, and everyone in the Song family naturally treated the little county lord like a guest, not to mention his identity, just sacrificing his life to save Song Nan's life was enough for everyone to be a bodhisattva; The little county lord's temper has changed greatly, and he brings some gifts to everyone every day, not to mention that Song's mother is stuffed with clothes and food, and her words are also sweet and sweet called by a big lady, and she can't close her mouth with Song's mother.

Although Song's mother also knows that it may be difficult for the daughter of the county lord of the Guogong Mansion to marry into this small family, she always has a slight thought in her heart, if she can climb the in-laws with the Guogong Mansion, it is really the ancestor of the Song family who has accumulated virtue; It's not that Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli are bad, from the position of Song's mother, her son is the best in the world, although Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli are also the daughters of a good family, but any of them are not suitable for Song Nan's main house, after all, their origins are unknown, and they have no parents at home, and at this time she has forgotten the discrimination she has suffered.

The affairs in the yamen have been busy for half a month, Song Nan almost forgot that he still has an identity as a waiter of Zhan Shifu, on the morning of the seventeenth day of the lunar month, Liu Jin personally went out of the palace to find Song Nan, and Song Nan was shocked to realize that he was a little excessive. Looking at Liu Jin's puffing appearance, Song Nan hurriedly stuffed twenty taels of silver to make amends, and Liu Jin was a little less angry.

Song Nan also hurriedly wrapped a few freshly baked 'Yipin ducks', and followed Liu Jin into the palace to see Zhu Houzhao, on the way Liu Jin reminded: "Song waiter, the prince has not been in a good mood recently, you have to persuade you later, our family is helpless." ”

Song Nan asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Liu Jin sighed: "You don't know the way, the cabinet scholar recommended a bachelor named Yang Tinghe from Hanlin Xiu, this person is very old-fashioned, and he is about to drive the prince crazy." ”

Song Nan was stunned and said, "Yang Tinghe? ”

Liu Jin said: "Yes, do you know? ”

Song Nan felt that this name was very familiar, and when he read history books in later generations, he seemed to remember such a person, but he couldn't remember the specific situation, but since he had an impression, he should be a very famous person.

"I don't know, why did this person force the prince?"

Liu Jin said: "Don't mention it, but I heard that Yang Tinghe has some skills, Chenghua fourteen years of the palace to test the flower, Hongzhi was promoted to Zuo Chunfang University Scholar in the second year, although the name is not as loud as the cabinet of several elders, but the knowledge is not inferior to them; This time, I don't know who is cheap, and in front of the emperor, he said that the prince's academic progress was slow, and the professors such as the former young master and young master were not effective, and the emperor was very anxious, so the scholar Li Dongyang recommended this Yang Tinghe to serve as a young master in the East Pavilion. This Yang Bachelor lives in the Wenhua Palace, supervising his studies every day, and all articles, classics, poems, and essays are not allowed to rest as long as they are not familiar with the chest; The prince was annoyed, flipped the table several times, and tore up the books, but Yang Tinghe remained unmoved, still the same. The prince didn't recruit either, who did he tell to go? Telling the emperor will inevitably provoke some reprimand, so naturally he is in a bad mood. ”

Song Nan said: "Gonggong Liu should persuade him from this, or find something to play to let the prince relax, riding a horse and archery, and relaxing the civil and military, which is also good for relieving the prince's mood." ”

Liu Jin said: "Don't mention it, how can I have time to let the prince play, I have thought of a lot of ways, but Yang Tinghe followed every day, the prince's book was not written, and the poems were not written, so I must not be free, but it is a pity that I have some thoughts." ”

Song Nan frowned and said, "I can't do anything if I go to this situation." ”

Liu Jin said: "Song waiter, don't forget your duties, you are the prince's waiter, you have to help think of a way; The prince said something yesterday, saying that you haven't been here for a long time, and you can't even eat a bite of fresh duck, this day is simply unbearable; I heard that there was a complaint, so I came to call you today, if you don't go, the prince will be angry with you, but don't blame my brother for not speaking for you. ”

Song Nan scratched his head and said: "So I have to thank Gonggong Liu, okay, I'll go and see, maybe the prince just stayed in the palace for too long and was in a bad mood, and he still had to read, how could the future emperor not learn some skills to govern the world, but according to what you said, Yang Tinghe was too anxious, although the prince is the future son of heaven, but after all, he is also a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man, how can he not rest all day long." ”

Liu Jin said: "That's it, don't say it, let's go quickly, the prince won't see me for a while, I'm afraid he'll be angry with me again, Zhang Yong and they are wise to protect themselves, all of them are hiding far away, damn it, a bunch of casual things; Ye was happy and came up, and when he was not happy, he flashed and disappeared. ”

Song Nan listened to him complaining, and it was not easy to answer, what Zhang Yong said that day came to his mind, and it seemed that the relationship between Liu Jin and Zhang Yong and others around the prince was indeed not harmonious.

The two galloped into the palace and rushed to the Wenhua Palace, as soon as they entered the apse, they felt that the atmosphere was not right, and the palace maids and little eunuchs stood on the corridor timidly one by one, and they did not dare to come out; I heard the sound of a crackling debris overturning in the study.

"How are you going to spend your days? If you want to think of a way, one by one you will frown and stare at your master, and see your master suffer; Zhang Yong, Gao Feng, Gu Dayong, aren't you quite clever on weekdays? Why is there no sound here? All of them eat white rice. Zhu Houzhao's angry voice came out, followed by a sound of smashing.

Zhang Yong's timid voice came: "Your Highness, the slaves and maids can't help with this matter, you don't know how to do it for so many days, and the emperor is facing him again, what do you say we can do?" ”

"What to do, what to do, you will say what to do, if you can't help it, the master will be driven crazy, bastard thing, Yang Ting and this bastard."

"Your Highness, be quiet, teach him to say that the prince disrespects his teacher and is disgusted with learning evil ways."

Song Nan looked at Liu Jin, Liu Jin showed an expression that you believe it now, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, Song Nan was helpless, and walked in; As soon as the curtain was lifted, I saw a thing smashing my head, and I hurriedly reached out and copied it in my hand, but it was an ancient book.

Zhu Houzhao saw Song Nan at a glance, and the fire didn't hit anywhere, and shouted: "Do you still know how to enter the palace?" I haven't seen anyone for so many days, what's the use of me asking you to study? ”

Song Nan frowned and arched his hand: "Why is Your Highness so angry?" I'm too busy outside to take a break. ”

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "The things outside are things, but my things are not things?" ”

Song Nan said: "Your Highness is angry first, what is it that is angry?" Tell me and listen, I'll help you figure it out, come, talk while eating, I've brought a freshly baked duck. ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "It's not a problem to have ducks. Having said that, the man sat down angrily, stretched out his hand and pulled the pen, ink and paper on the desk, crackling for a while, and pulling it all to the ground.

Song Nan smiled bitterly, this Zhu Houzhao is completely a child's temper, but he is not a bad person, and being tired of learning and having fun is a common problem among young people.

Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and the others saw that Zhu Houzhao's temper was calming down, so they hurriedly waved their hands secretly, and the little eunuchs and palace maids quickly picked up and sorted out the things on the ground and cleaned them up; Here Song Nan had already put the roast duck on the table and started tearing the duck meat, the duck meat was fragrant, Zhu Houzhao stared at his throat and swallowed his saliva, forgetting his troubles for the time being, and his index finger moved in anticipation.

Liu Jin and the others breathed a sigh of relief, the wind and rain had finally passed, fortunately Song Nan arrived in time, otherwise I don't know when the trouble would be; Out of gratitude, Zhang Yong took matters into his own hands and made a cup of tea for Song Nan.

Song Nan smiled while wrapping the duck meat buns: "Your Highness, I heard that the new Bachelor Yang is more serious and strict, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still adapt?" ”

Zhu Houzhao was chewing on the duck bun to enjoy, and when he heard the words, his eyes suddenly widened, and he said vaguely: "Adapt? Yang Tinghe went too far, completely treated me as a cow and horse, poured everything into it, and I was about to be tossed to death by him. ”

Song Nan said: "Oh? Is it because you can't memorize the book, or can't you understand it? Reading is a good thing, the prince will reign in the world, so he naturally needs to know how to govern the world, and there is reason in the book, which is also the emperor's expectation. ”

Zhu Houzhao sighed and said: "I don't understand this, but Yang Tinghe is too ruthless, he reads three articles a day, and answers questions according to the articles, and writes two poems, and learns three hundred words; When I am beaten with iron? That's it, but if I make a mistake in answering and reciting questions, I am not allowed to rest, and the poems are not written in rhyme, nor can I pass, and after a day of tossing, my brain is in a pulp. The poem of the day before yesterday did not pass, and I don't know how to toss me when he comes, and when I see him now, I can't wait to bite him to relieve my breath. ”

Zhu Houzhao took a vicious bite of the duck bun, chewing and swallowing it quickly, as if he was biting Yang Tinghe.

Song Nan said in his heart: This prince has not grown up yet, and the child's heart is fully revealed.

"It's a bit excessive, the sea of books is endless, living to learn all the time, this kind of cramming is naturally disgusting, and I want to be angry."

Zhu Houzhao nodded as if he met a bosom friend: "Yes, I just heard this, or you understand things, a few of them are like Qiao Ge'er on weekdays, and they dare to gnaw at all at critical times, and let me be tricked by Yang Tinghe, I am really angry." ”

Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and the others looked embarrassed, and Song Nan hurriedly said: "A few fathers-in-law are also helpless, the emperor attaches great importance to the prince's lectures, if they talk nonsense, if they are sued by Yang Tinghe, won't they be punished?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "Then what should I do?" It's just so hard? In the past, I could also ride a horse and shoot arrows, but now it's good, my mind is full of articles, poems and books every day, what does it mean for me to be a prince? ”

Song Nan said: "Your Highness, don't say frustrating words, you are the future emperor, wouldn't these words let the ministers talk nonsense, don't worry, I'll meet Yang Tinghe later, see what his path is, and persuade him to be more lenient with His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "Can you persuade it?" This man is very pedantic, and the whole thing is a lump of wood. ”

Liu Jin, Zhang Yong and others also sneered, and thought to themselves: Don't be ashamed to say it, the prince is not a bird, you will be a bird if you are a waiter? But there is a thought, although he and the others dare not mess around, since Song Nan volunteered to touch the mold, let him go, and the unlucky one is not himself anyway.
