When Xie Zhao looked down at the letter, several friends around him looked at his face, saw him frown, and then casually put away the letterhead, and said casually: "Yes, where did you just say?" ”

Zhang Ying asked, "What news did my uncle send?" Okay, you're a thank you, you're in a daze in Hangzhou, aren't you? Now I have learned so deeply. ”

Xie Zhaowan smiled, and said calmly: "Actually, it's all a trivial matter, it's nothing more than entering the palace the day after tomorrow and letting the scholars in Hangzhou in Beijing meet together, but one of the flies is quite annoying." But it's not a big deal, after all, it's just a person with a chin down, it doesn't matter! ”

Xie Zhao's affairs in Hangzhou, in fact, some well-informed people have heard of it, and some people can't help but ask: "Could it be that you are talking about the Zhejiang Xie Yuan Xu Qian of the new department?" I've heard of this person, and he's been in Beijing recently, and he's quite famous. ”

Zhang Ying sneered: "What bullshit Xie Yuan, I'm never rare, what's the matter, he provoked Brother Xie?" ”

Xie Qian said casually: "This person is very annoying, he is not worthy of provoking me, but this person wants to come to Jianxi to revenge, I am afraid that he will cause me some trouble when I meet him, you also know, I have always been a person who has no quarrel with the world, I have always only made friends and not made enemies, and there are only dozens of Hangzhou scholars in Beijing, half of whom have a lot to do with me, and even a few have been living in the house, if this surname Xu is acquaintance, but if he doesn't know each other, he doesn't need me to make a move, he can make him look good." ”

Xie Zhao's words were a bit domineering, but in the ears of these princes and nobles, they felt that they were taken for granted.

However, although Xie Zhao said it easily, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he knew that Xu Qian's kung fu was messing around, and he was afraid that this person would mess with his own good deeds.

Although he is a scholar. The knowledge is also good, but after all, it is a nobleman, maybe for those Jinshi and Xie Yuan, there is not much benefit to climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, but for the nobles, being able to marry the palace is of great benefit to the entire family.

Xie Zhao's brows furrowed slightly, and he suddenly said: "Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, even his temperament." Many people have not figured it out, and the queen mother of these two palaces has lived in the palace for a long time, but she doesn't know what her temperament is. Do you have any news? Especially the Queen Mother, she must not be lazy, hey...... Ladies and gentlemen, I'm just afraid that Xie will not be able to stay for a long time, so I have to go back and think about it. Unexpectedly, there are variables now, and that Xu Qian has always been scheming, so it's better to be careful. ”

After he made a gesture, he smiled: "This Peony Pavilion is still too quiet. Why don't you do it with me next time? ”

When Xie Zhao said this, he didn't say more, turned around and left, and it was inconvenient for others to stay. It's just that Zhang Ying said with a smile: "It's not uncommon to say just now, but now it's so nervous." The surname Xu is at most just a Xie Yuan, and he is not even a fart when he arrives in Jingshi...... Hey ......"

Xie Zhao hurriedly rushed back to the Hou Mansion, and in the Hou Mansion, his father Xie Yan was already waiting in the study.

Xie Yan is not only a marquis, but also a commander in the left guard of Yanshan, a military attache of the second rank in the court, and because he belongs to the royal guard, his status is quite prominent.

The mansions of Jingshi, whether the lord is literary or martial, all love to set up study rooms, and they all love to collect books, and the bookshelves must be dazzling.

And Xie Yan had already retired from the slave in the study at the moment, slowly flipping through a book in his hand to read, and when Xie Zhao came in, he didn't put the book down, he was a little not angry and arrogant, Xie Zhao obediently saluted his father, and said, "Isn't my father on duty today?" ”

Xie Yan's eyes fell on the book, but he said: "There is such news suddenly coming out of the palace forbidden, how can my father still have the heart to be on duty?" Come, you sit down and talk. ”

Xie Zhao sat down with a bow, and then said: "It's that the son has no form, which makes my father worried." ”

Xie Yan put down the book, squinted at Xie Zhao, and said: "It's okay, now your business is the Xie family's business, you gave birth to seven sons for your father, some good and some bad, only you are the most outstanding, and the honor and disgrace of the Xie family will naturally be placed on you." This time the two palaces summoned you, which was originally the meaning of the last check, but for some reason, such news suddenly came out from the inner court, which really made my father a little unguessable. But no matter what, this time entering the palace is a matter of importance, and you must not take it lightly, you have to be prepared, understand? ”

Xie Zhao nodded his head, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Xie Yan immediately smiled and said, "Do you have something to say to your father?" In fact, if you don't say it, your father also knows that you are not on good terms with Xie Yuan, surnamed Xu, aren't you? This person, the old man has also heard of some things, not to be underestimated, I am afraid that when I enter the palace, he will make something happen, bad

Your good deeds are also bad for our Xie family......" Xie Yan's smile became cold, and his eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent: "The more so, the more don't be afraid, although let the surnamed Xu try it, think about it for the father, and think that it is better to be foolproof, the queen mother's preferences, for the father has inquired, the queen mother respects the warlock, quite good Huang Lao's skills, I have ordered someone to buy a copy of the river book of the "Tao Te Ching", in addition to a jade statue of the Taoist, these are all from the hands of famous masters, It is also a rare thing to put in the palace, the queen mother will be overjoyed when she sees this gift, yes, some time ago, I let you read a few Taoist scriptures, have you seen it? Do you have any feelings? ”

Xie Zhao replied honestly: "My son can already recite, and he has some feelings, so it shouldn't be a problem." ”

Xie Yan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "This is called doing what she likes, the Queen Mother loves Huang Lao, you have to talk more about Huang Lao, so that you can get her favor." ”

After listening to Xie Yan's words, Xie Zhao had some confidence, and felt that these two gifts plus the Taoist scriptures he memorized seemed to be enough, so Xu Qian had the ability to prepare himself sufficiently? As long as the Queen Mother favors herself, no matter how much he messes around, it will only be annoying, and then he will not only be able to do this matter, but also see the opportunity to fight back.

It's just that he was still a little worried, and said, "But what about Empress Dowager Zhang?" Neither of the two empress dowagers can be offended, but I am afraid that the Empress Dowager Zhang will not like it. ”

Xie Yan smiled slightly: "Empress Dowager Zhang's side has naturally prepared valuable gifts, besides, our Xie family and Empress Dowager Zhang have a bit of a relationship, even if they snubbed her for a while, she won't mind, the people around her also have some relationship with the old man, and they have already said hello in advance, all in all, as long as they please the Queen Mother, Empress Dowager Zhang's side will naturally give convenience, and this matter will be done." ”

Xie Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart suddenly became full of confidence, at this time, he couldn't help but think of Xu Qian, and couldn't help sneering: "If the person surnamed Xu is making trouble, just clean him up, father, this person is really annoying, last time in Hangzhou, the child wanted to take the opportunity to beat him to never be born, who would have thought that there was a change, and now that he is in Beijing, it is more convenient to act." ”

Xie Yan just smiled slightly, and said: "Other things, let's talk about it later, the most important thing at the moment is to enter the palace, our Xie family is a family with face, if anyone wants to give us a good look, then this person doesn't want to stay in Beijing." ”

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Unlike the nervousness of the Xie family, although the Xu family also attaches great importance to this matter, Xu Qian seems to be a little heartless, in fact, Huang Jin knows everything about the affairs in the palace, the temper of the two palaces, and the dirtiness between the two palaces, all know it clearly.

Just like this Queen Mother is a good Buddha, and the Queen Mother is good at Huang Lao's skills, in addition, what rouge, gouache, and what preferences the emperor likes other nobles in the palace, these have been inquired by Xu Qian clearly, and even what kind of character Princess Yongchun has, Xu Qian also understands a little.

Of course, what is really useful at the moment is the temperament of the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, after all, it is the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces who summons her, and the princess, as the daughter to be married, is naturally inconvenient to come forward, on the emperor's side, Xu Qian roughly knows some words to avoid committing taboos, after all, Xu Qian is familiar with Emperor Jiajing in later generations, and he has some understanding. Other nobles in the palace, Xu Qian can't get in touch with it, but this kind of gossip thing, naturally the more you know, the better, who knows if it will be used in the future, after this village, there will be no more shops, at this time, if you don't come out of Huang Jin's mouth, Xu Qian feels sorry for himself.

It's just that this gift to the palace made Xu Qian embarrassed, he had thought about sending some gifts from Huang Lao or the Buddhist family, just to his liking, but after discussing it with the old man, he felt that it was very different, the reason is actually very simple, since the Xu family knows the preferences of others, it is impossible for the Xie family, as a Jingshi family, not to know, the Xu family sent this, won't the Xie family send it? After all, they are a wealthy family with a hundred years of history, and many things that cannot be bought on the market may not be available to others, and Xu Qian has more financial support, and he may not be able to beat them in this regard.

Xu Qian entered the palace on this day, and it was clear that he was going to the Yin people, if he was not even as good as this gift, and did not suppress the Xie family to death, how could he do a good thing? If it weren't for Xu Qian's fame, he wouldn't dare to marry the princess, and most of them would even have the intention of taking his wife.
