Who Zong Wei is, presumably the officials already know it, although he and Fan Shi have an old grudge, although they are extremely distant, but with Fan Xian's extremely grudgeful character, how can he not deeply imprint this person's name in their hearts.

"I've seen a scholar. ”

"I've seen the little grandfather. ”

He Zongwei was neither humble nor arrogant, and bowed very steadily. Master Hu laughed and said a few gossips, raised his arms weakly, and signaled that he didn't need to be polite. But Fan Xian just looked at the young minister calmly from the sidelines, and he didn't know how many pictures flashed in his mind.

At the beginning of the seventh year of Qingli, the military sniped Fan Xian in the valley, giving His Majesty the Emperor a chance to change new blood for the imperial court. Among the Seven Gentlemen, Qin Heng participated in the rebellion and was already dead, Yan Bingyun was working in the Supervision Yuan peacefully, just waiting to take over the position of Fan Xianti, but He Zongwei was the one who was most trusted by His Majesty and promoted the fastest among these new bloods.

After the rebellion in Kyoto, the three of Fan Xian's prince Ye Chong were the first to act, and the problem was that these three people were already the top figures among the powerful, and His Majesty had no title and no reward. However, because of this incident, He Zongwei was greatly treated by His Majesty, and he was promoted three levels in a row, and entered the political center of the imperial court like a rocket. This kind of promotion speed is really an anomaly, and perhaps only Fan Xian, who has just entered Kyoto, can overpower him.

And not only Fan Xian is clear, He Zongwei himself knows, in fact, the government and the opposition all understand that this person's promotion of leapfrogging and His Majesty's trust and decentralization are just the power that His Majesty naturally generated in order to balance Fan Xian. It's not that the emperor has any suspicions about Fan Xian, it's just that a powerful minister like Fan Xian, if there is no one to check and balance one or two in the court, there will always be some problems.

Although He Zongwei entered the middle book under the door, he still held the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Inspectorate and held the holy will. The power of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has risen dramatically, which has greatly oppressed the power of the Supervisory Yuan. In the past two years, there have been many lawsuits between the Supervision Yuan and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The situation between the two sides was extremely tense, and the eight law enforcement divisions headed by Song Shiren and Chen Bochang were also busy.

The Department of Law Enforcement is the new yamen of the Supervision Yuan set up by Fan Xian on a whim, and it is the imperial history that can deal with the most eloquent cadres of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

It can be seen from this. Of course Fan Xian doesn't like He Zongwei, this person overturned his father-in-law and went against himself everywhere, the most important thing is that under the other party's serious face, there is a speculative heart that he hates the most.

The name "Three Surnamed House Slaves" was spread from Fan's study, and the gate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was broken by Fan Xian. Everyone knew that Lord Xiao Fan looked down on He Zongwei the most.

But every time they meet at the court meeting or in the yatang, He Zongwei still maintains absolute respect for Fan Xian. It's like I don't know about it at all, just like the two of them still felt when they first met on one stone.

As the saying goes, if you don't stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person, as long as the other party doesn't touch his bottom line for the time being, Fan Xian will naturally not be mean and humiliate him. However, it was He Zongwei's smiling attitude that made him a little secretly vigilant in his heart, and he turned his hands into clouds. The little ones who cover their hands for the rain. It is impossible for him to suffer losses on the surface, but who knows what the other party will do underneath.

He Zongwei seemed to see that Fan Xian was not very willing to talk to him, so he smiled helplessly and saluted the two again. After saying a few words in harmony, he followed the red lantern and retreated into the darkness under the palace.

Fan Xian squinted at the lantern until he couldn't see the person's face, and then he gently exhaled a cloudy breath. Scholar Hu looked at him gently. said: "Lord He's holy family is stable. But he is not a man without measure, and the two houses are arguing. He's just an office job, too. ”

Listening to Scholar Hu speak for He Zongwei, the corners of Fan Xian's lips curled. quipped: "If you marry your precious daughter to him." Would you like to?"

Scholar Hu coughed repeatedly, pointing at Fan Xian funny and angry, unable to speak. Nowadays, there is a trend of late marriage in Kyoto, and even if the palace is very unhappy about it, it cannot be changed. For example, the prince of King Jing, such as He Zongwei, are already established people, but they are still alone and don't think about getting married.

"Speaking of that girl in my family......" Scholar Hu suddenly smiled and said, "An Zhi, I heard that you accepted the young lady from Wang Dadu's family as a student, since this is the case, you don't mind more of my family, right?"

Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought that he had accepted Wang Yu'er as a female student, and this matter had become a reality after the dispute between the imperial study and His Majesty. At that time, he was still complacent, taking retreat as advance, and asked His Majesty to hand over all the matter of the eldest prince and concubine to himself.

He waved his hand again and again and said, "What is this, the university scholar is rich and rich, and Ling Yuan is also ice and snow smart, where do you need me to do this waste." ”

Seeing his refusal, Scholar Hu smiled, thinking that if you are a waste, then who in the world is not a waste, I can't help but feel a little pity in my heart.

Everyone in the Chinese military hundred officials of the dynasty knows that Master Xiao Fan is a unique in the world, teaching the stubborn third prince into the gentle gentleman of today, and teaching the Ye family miss in Kyoto to be a gentle princess, whose humanities have the name of poetry immortals, and the realm of nine products in martial arts, even Hu University is very willing to send his daughter to his local mansion - of course, not to be a concubine, but just to be a female student.

Fan Xian turned the topic back to the previous sentence, and said teasingly: "The bachelor refuses to marry his daughter to He Zongwei, naturally because he knows that his heart is not right, such a villain, why should I be false with him." ”

Scholar Hu sighed helplessly, thinking that in today's imperial court, only Fan Xian would criticize He Zongwei so fiercely, but he never understood why Fan Xian looked down on He Zongwei so much, to say that those things back then were actually not caused by His Majesty.

In short, this matter is incomprehensible, Fan Xian's jealousy and dislike of He Zongwei come from many aspects. At this time, it was too early and there was nothing to do, so Fan Xian gossiped with Scholar Hu.

Since Shu Wu returned to old age, Fan Xian was a little surprised to find that Scholar Hu and Old Man Shu were both very interesting people, and they were not pedantic at all. One old

People interact with each other on weekdays. Get along very well. The relationship is also closer

Fan Xian and the two of them were together. talked about the Xinwen movement of Hu University. In the end, this matter ended in nothing. But it is the most proud thing in the life of Hu University. Even more proud than entering the middle school under the main door. And Fan Xian is also a generation of disciples who have been baptized by May Fourth. It's a lot of fun. The laughter pierced the silence under Miyagi.

At this time, the palace gate was in the dark. Countless red lanterns. In fact, they are all looking up here. The head of the middle school of the door has a conversation with the little grandfather. A lot of people want to get involved. But they know they don't have the qualifications. As for laughing while waiting for the pilgrimage. Only these two have this kind of courage.

Half an hour later. Fan Xian straightened up, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was a little weird. His brow furrowed slightly. sighed.

Scholar Hu glanced at him. Know what he's enlightened. He smiled slightly.

Fan Xian never knew that His Majesty the Emperor had considered the question of his succession to the throne for a moment after quelling the rebellion. Although His Majesty the Emperor was very resolute in erasing this thought from his mind afterwards.

But he knew that His Majesty the Emperor had originally arranged for Qingguo's future government and government, and used He Zongwei to inspect the capital. Balance the powers of the Supervision Institute. Then the subordinate Zhongshu led by the scholar Hu was horizontal on the top to stabilize the dynasty.

So arranged. It can ensure the peace and tranquility of the Qing Dynasty for 20 years.

It's just that Fan Xiandi has too much power now. And he is very good friends with Hu University. Some of the emperor's arrangements could not be implemented. had to put He Zongwei into the middle book under the door.

"Your Majesty's meaning is clear. Master Hu said gently: "He didn't want the courtiers below to be like fire and water, so at first Lord He came to ask for peace." It is also intended to ease up. Anzhi is a smart person, you should know how to do it. ”

Fan Xian fell silent, his handsome face reflected in the lantern ground. It seems incredibly calm. A year and a half ago. He once kicked open the gate of the Imperial Palace. scolded more than a dozen imperial historians below He Zongwei to the point that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and the world only said that Lord Xiao Fan was extremely arrogant. How did he know that afterwards, he himself was scolded by the emperor Lao Tzu in the imperial study, and his face was blue and white.

This incident proves that His Majesty the Emperor has maintained the Metropolitan Procuratorate. and the willingness to pay a price in order to maintain this balance. So from that day onwards. Fan Xian knew what he should do, and he always did it. As long as He Zongwei is not too excessive, he will not use a spicy hand, except for the establishment of the Law Enforcement Department to make it extremely difficult for the Metropolitan Procuratorate. There's no real way to do it.

But all this must be based on the premise that Fan Xian can endure it. If He Zongwei did something he couldn't bear. With his blood relationship with the emperor, and with his current real strength, even if a character like He Zongwei was really killed with a knife, what could the emperor do? Could the emperor still be willing to let his illegitimate son pay for the life of a minister?

Scholar Hu looked at the darkness under the palace gate. Yu Yu sighed. In my heart, I felt worried about He Zongwei. He immediately thought of what His Majesty meant late the night before, and couldn't help frowning. According to the usual theory. Although He Zongwei is not a pure person. But in previous years, the old things were all His Majesty's will, and if you think about it carefully, this Lord He is actually not bad - if Lord Xiao Fan is willing. His Majesty's proposal could really calm down the dispute between the two houses.

It all depends on whether Fan Xian is willing or not. Scholar Hu turned his head and glanced at Fan Xian deeply.

Fan Xian was thinking about whether Scholar Hu's words were the words entrusted to him by the emperor, or the attitude of the subordinates, and then frowned and thought. On weekdays, He Zongwei also has great respect for himself. But it was not as docile and peaceful as it is today. No temper at all.

All of this is actually due to the excessive power in Fan Xian's hands. An illegitimate son of royalty. The Supervision Yuan is in his hands, and the inner treasury is not separated from him, so powerful is too exaggerated. Fan Xian thought of the emperor's thoughts, and couldn't help but be annoyed and secretly said, could it be that his good character and family background are also a kind of original sin?

——————————————————

After the court meeting was over, there was a regular small meeting, and finally His Majesty the Emperor and the eldest prince, the third prince, and Fan Xian held a smaller-scale private family meeting. Fan Xian walked out of the high imperial city, and said sorry to the housekeeper of the Hu Mansion who was waiting for him with a gentle smile on his face, saying that there was a sudden emergency in the mansion today, and this drinking would have to be another day.

Sitting in the carriage back to the house, Fujiko Jing found that the young master seemed to be in a really good mood today, his eyes kept smiling, and the corners of his lips kept crooking. It's like the moon. Thinking that his mother-in-law had been urging things recently, he cautiously asked, "Young master......"

Fan Xian glanced sideways at him, listening to his most faithful servant whisper. It took me a long time to understand. It turned out that the vine family looked at some households in the house, and they all relied on the prestige of the Fan family. went out and became a petty official. I also felt a little itchy in my heart.

Now Difan House. All the miscellaneous things are basically handed over to Fuji Zijing and his daughter-in-law. I have this thought. It was also something that Fan Xian had anticipated. He looked at Fujikokyo. smiled and said, "Today is the ninth year of Qingli. Since it's five years late. There's no point in you going out again. ”

Fujikokyo didn't understand the young master's unfathomable words. Nene laughed.

Back to the house. Fan Xian lifted his shirt. Carry the wind in. He still has a gentle and affectionate smile on his face. All the underground servants rejoiced when they saw this. Fan Xian is used to buying people's hearts. Not to mention the upper and lower levels of the house. Who is not proud of him. Seeing that the young master was happy, these subordinates were naturally happy.

The third housekeeper followed Fujiko Kyo. With Fan Xian walked towards the garden. said softly: "The young lady of the Wang family is here." I heard that I was going to formally apprentice. Looking at the young master's mood, it should be accurate. What should we prepare?"

Fujiko Jing's face did not turn, and he smiled as inscrutable and profound as Fan Xian. said: "Miss Wang...... It's a miserable day. ”

"Why?" asked the third steward in surprise.

Fujikokyo said with a dark face: "Young Master is in a bad mood today...... It's worse than ever. ”

......

......

Sure enough, it is worthy of being in Lanzhou, and he will see Fan Xian's brilliant future, and he will be a smart person. Sure enough, he is worthy of being a cronie who has followed Fan Xian for the longest time. Things turned out just as Fujiko Kyo had expected. When Fan laughed

Shortly after walking into the study. That brutal lady of the Wang family. And he ran out in a howl.

Wang Yu'er was crying and scolding, looking extremely miserable, and she didn't know what Fan Xian had done to her. The girl's family seemed to think that the study was not a place for people to stay, so they hid their faces all the way. Teardrops flew in the air.

It is the tears that turn into poetry all the way, or the posture of the pear blossom.

And behind her. Today, I deliberately came to Kyoto to guard General Shi Fei. He also walked out of the study angrily and walked out of the house, with words in his mouth, as if he hadn't thought of it. Fan Xian didn't even give himself ground.

Fuji Zijing looked at the stunned third housekeeper and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know what happened in the palace." ”

The daughters of the Fan Mansion, who waited for the news, hurried to the study, and only learned about the study along the way. Fan Xian was extremely mean to teach the girl Wang Yu'er a good lesson, and even had to use a whip in the end.

Everyone was shocked, thinking that this time they had offended the military's Yanjing faction. Especially a big man like the commander of the Kyoto garrison, for the sake of Wang Yu'er's entry into the palace, he came in person, which was enough to give Fan Xian face, where would he think that Fan Xian would not leave any face for the other party.

The smile on Fan Xian's face was weird, he looked at Wan'er, Sisi and the little county lord of Roujia in the study, and said: "Nothing happened, this is said in advance, if you enter my door, you will have to be whipped twice, and you will break the original sin." ”

Lin Wan'er gasped, wondering if Xianggong was suffering from madness today, the so-called whipping was of course just a joke, but how could it be true.

Fan Xian smiled and said softly: "It's not a joke, Gangchang ethics, this kind of thing always needs to be respected." ”

"But you can't fight on the ground in front of General Shi. Lin Wan'er glanced at him helplessly, and had already guessed wisely that something must have happened in the palace that made Fan Xian spill his anger on Wang Yu'er's head.

And for example, today, there is only one person who can give Fan Xian a place to be angry and make him unable to vent outside the house.

"These words were spoken to me by your good uncle. ”

Lin Wan'er was annoyed and said, "That's your father." ”

The couple naturally said His Majesty the Emperor. The problem is that although everyone knows that Fan Xian is the illegitimate son of the emperor, no one dares to say this fact.

Especially the county lord of Roujia, his face was full of embarrassment, and he didn't know how to answer.

Lin Wan'er sighed, knowing that it was her own speech, she stepped forward and said softly, "What did Your Majesty say to make you angry like this?"

Fan Xian sat down with a headache, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty wants to give Ruoruo a marriage." ”

Rou Jia's eyes rolled, and she said with slight joy: "This is a good thing." ”

Fan Xian glanced at her and said, "Do you think it will be pointed out to your brother this time?" His face sank, and he said, "Your Majesty asked me privately today what I mean, it seems that he wanted to point Ruoruo to He Zongwei." ”

As soon as these words came out, the room was full of shock, quiet, and tight—nervously tight.

......

......

Lin Wan'er's heart was beating very fast, for fear of what Fan Xian would do in addition to his anger, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she preemptively said, "How can this be done?"

These words are not touching Fan Xian's hair. Under the influence of Fan Xian, the Fan Mansion looked down on He Zongwei very much, especially Lin Wan'er, on the one hand, she was thinking of the downfall of her old father in Wuzhou, and on the other hand, she learned from Fan Xian that He Zongwei had some thoughts about Ruoruo back then.

In fact, He Zongwei was a dignified genius in Kyoto, and the young man Mu Shaoai liked Ruoruo at all, but Fan Xian just felt disgusted. After today's meeting in the imperial study, the emperor said the meaning of the marriage place, Fan Xian was angry on the spot, and had a big quarrel with the emperor, but in the end he was suppressed by the emperor with the share of the monarch and the minister, and the righteousness of the father and son.

"He Zongwei...... The character is not good. Of course, Rou Jia hopes that Fan Ruoruo can become her sister-in-law, no matter from which point of view, she has to fight for her brother Hongcheng.

Fan Xian listened to Rou Jia's soft voice and blushing criticism, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, and his mood was much better.

"Your Majesty doesn't think that Lord He has a bad character. Fan Xian's face calmed down and said: "In the eyes of Your Majesty, He Zongwei is a talented person, and now he is a high-ranking official, and he is loyal to him, of course he is worthy of Ruoruo." ”

In fact, if you throw away the colored vision, many people will think that Lord He and Fan Ruoruo are a match made in heaven, because the so-called character and official character are actually clear that He Zongwei is only doing things for His Majesty, and he is really a great loyal minister.

It's just that there is one thing Fan Xian still hasn't figured out, when he was thinking about His Royal Highness's acceptance of concubines in Qingzhou, he once thought that His Majesty the Emperor now trusts and loves him, and he knows that he didn't hesitate to beat Hongcheng into a generation of prostitutes in order to get married, and he shouldn't have forcibly arranged a marriage to provoke himself - but now His Majesty would actually decide to marry Ruoruo to He Zongwei, what did he think?

"Since Your Majesty is asking you privately, it means that you know that you will definitely oppose it, but it is just a temptation. Lin Wan'er immediately calmed down and began to analyze all this, "You shouldn't resist Your Majesty, Your Majesty's temperament is not unaware of it, the more fierce your objection, the more he will do it." ”

"I'm just angry that Your Majesty would be so confused. Do you think that if you forcibly point to this marriage, there will be a gentle drizzle in the court?" Fan Xian woke up from his contemplation, and a light flashed in his mind, as if he vaguely caught something.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a cold light appeared in his eyes, and his voice was pressed into a cold line: "He Zongwei, I don't care. If he really dares to come to the door to propose, I will cut him with one sword. ”
