Chapter 358: Apprenticeship or Birth?
It's the end of February.
There is no news of the Jingshi examination, but according to Zhu Hao's estimate, without his suggestion, Gongsun Yi basically has no hope of being admitted to the Jinshi, unless he is blessed by the gods...... Or he gave Gongsun Yi a random question, unfortunately bet again, but this possibility is basically zero.
On this day, Tang Yin had nothing to do, he went out with Jiang Lun to listen to the play, he didn't see Zhu Hao in the theater garden, and he stayed in the private room until noon, and saw Lu Song come upstairs.
"Mr. Tang, Aunt Jiang, something happened."
Lu Song's breath was short, and his expression was panicked.
Jiang Lun frowned: "Why are you so alarmed?" ”
Lu Song panted and replied: "At the beginning of spring sowing this year, in the fields at the junction of Anlu and Xiangyang, the seeds sown were bulldozed overnight before they germinated, and the people on duty on the ridges were also beaten, covered with bruises, and several people were missing, and they may have been arrested by the people of Xiangwangfu." ”
"Xiangwangfu has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, dare to go against my Xingwangfu? Copy guys, go! ”
Jiang Lun has a violent temper, rolls up his sleeves and prepares to work.
Now that his status in the palace has soared, and he is very close to Tang Yin, a popular man next to King Xing, he feels that he has the ability to do anything.
But Lu Song obviously came to talk to Tang Yin, you Jiang Lun...... I just happened to hear our conversation, so why talk nonsense?
Tang Yin got up: "Then I'll rush back to the palace immediately...... Oh yes, Lu Dianzhan, did you report to the above? What did King Xing say? ”
Lu Song said: "There are already special people to report to King Xing, Yuan Changshi, and Zhang Changshi, and I was specially ordered to come to you." ”
Something happened, and the people of the Wangfu Changshi Division naturally believed in the two Changshi, and no matter how bad it was, there was Zhang Zuo, but because the people of the Wangfu Yiwei Division trusted Tang Yin's ability to command in battle, they wanted to find Tang Yin to call the shots whenever they encountered something.
"Brother Meng Zai, you and I hurry back to the palace, it's not good to make a mistake."
Tang Yin beckoned Jiang Lun to leave.
……
……
On the way back, Tang Yin was thinking, it would be good if he could find Zhu Hao at this time and discuss countermeasures.
Lu Song mentioned in due course: "...... A few years ago, Young Master Zhu reminded him many times, saying that the Xiangwang Mansion would not give up and would suddenly make trouble, but he hated not listening to him and sent more people, this time, ...... The palace suffered a great loss. ”
Jiang Lun said: "First of all, we must make sure that people are okay, and the seedlings can be replanted." ”
As they spoke, the three of them entered the palace, and it happened that the Chengfeng Division of the palace also happened to send someone to inform Tang Yin and ask him to hurry up to see King Xing.
Tang Yin quickened his pace and asked as he walked, "Have you ever looked for Zhu Hao?" ”
Lu Song said: "Today's twenty-nineth, Zhu Hao went home to rest, and the temporary notice was too late. ”
"Alas!"
Tang Yin actually sighed in front of everyone, meaning that it was a pity that Zhu Hao was not found, and this attitude surprised Lu Song and Jiang Lun.
You Tang Yin is real, do you rely on Zhu Hao so much?
What do you want to discuss with Zhu Hao now?
……
……
Zhu Hao really doesn't always care about what is happening in the palace.
Last night, he stayed up late to record the experimental data, and only fell asleep in the second half of the night, and got up at three poles in the morning, and before he went to the workshop to check the situation of the new loom, Zhu Niang came to inform him, saying that the person who came to block him before came again.
"It's a scholar surnamed Sun, who said he knew you, and my mother didn't know why he was so persistent, every time I came to ask, he turned around and left when you weren't at home, and today I know that you're back, and I want to see you alive or dead, and a bunch of people are watching at the door of the shop, and the business can't be done."
Zhu Niang was a little angry in her words.
probably felt that the person at the door should have been offended by his son and came to find fault.
Zhu Hao immediately thought of the person he had bet with Fan Yikuan at the beginning, a pedantic Confucian grandson from a wealthy merchant family.
I thought, this product took the initiative to come to the door? It's not easy! Is this self-motivated, or is it resentful that people will talk about it and settle accounts with me?
……
……
Zhu Hao walked out of the door of his shop, and sure enough, he saw a young Confucian standing at the door, even if he hadn't seen him for more than a year, he could recognize that it was Sun Ru, who went to the state to visit Fan Yikuan but touched a gray nose that day.
"Don't talk! I don't want to see your face......"
Zhu Hao was the first to speak.
"You!"
Sun Ru's face suddenly turned red.
"This is not the place to talk, you are here to affect my family's business, let's talk about something else!"
As Zhu Hao spoke, he beckoned several nurses to come over and push away the crowd, and Sun Ru also brought a servant here, and he followed behind.
A few people were leaving, and the onlookers wanted to follow, and someone deliberately pointed loudly, it was the money string.
Zhu Hao stopped and asked loudly: "Qian Chuanzi, didn't your concubine just have a joy?" The one that is raised outside! ”
"Huh?"
A group of neighbors in the neighborhood turned their heads to look at the money strings.
This news is much more explosive than a scholar coming to Zhu Hao, and a group of people immediately surrounded the money strings.
Qian Chuanzi hurriedly said: "When do I have a foreign house?" Don't listen to that kid's nonsense! ”
"That's not right, Qian Chuanzi, I heard that you have made money recently, you used to be pressed by Zhu Niang in business on this street, but now Zhu Niang has changed to a pen and ink business, you should be developed here, right? Is it really rich to marry a concubine? ”
"Aunt Li, you can't talk nonsense."
"Who is talking nonsense? Hurry up and be honest! ”
"Fart ......"
Qian Chuanzi was watched by a group of people eating melons, Zhu Hao took the opportunity to take Sun Ru across the street, and after crossing the two streets, he found a restaurant and went up to the second floor, just in time to eat something good in the next restaurant.
……
……
"Sit down, what's the matter with me? If you ask for teaching, I can help you, but if you come to me to settle accounts because of the grievances between me and Fan Xuezheng before, it is best not to open your mouth. ”
Zhu Hao's attitude was a little cold.
Sun Ru sneered: "How high am I to learn? Do I need to ask you? Let's just say that you bet me with the surname Fan and were ridiculed, do you know how much damage has been caused to my reputation? ”
Zhu Hao thought to himself, saying that you are pedantic, you are really rotten wood that cannot be carved!
How many people want to worship me as a teacher, because I casually used you to bet with Fan Yikuan, so that you have this opportunity, you still don't grasp it, come to blow your beard and stare at me? If you are modest, maybe I will help you become a student, let you make a name for yourself, and glorify your ancestors.
"Do you know that I have been admitted to the county case, and I will be a student after the college exam this year?" Zhu Hao asked.
"Of course you know, what's there to brag about?"
Sun Ru sat down and glared at Zhu Hao.
Zhu Hao said: "Then you must pass the college exam this year?" ”
Sun Ru was arrogant: "This is nature. ”
"No, why can you come to me? You won't be here to bet with me, will you? It's better to do this, you and I each take out a hundred taels of silver as a bet, if you can pass the exam, I will give you this hundred taels of silver for nothing, if you can't pass the exam, how about you give me a hundred taels of silver? ”
Zhu Hao proposed.
"This ...... Of course not. ”
Although Sun Ru is pedantic, his head is very bright.
Zhu Hao smiled: "Aren't you very confident? Then the probability of you being admitted to the middle school should be very high, right? More than half the chance, why not bet with me? ”
Zhu Hao's purpose was naturally not for the one hundred taels of silver.
is the same as the purpose of the bet with Fan Yikuan, with a gambling contract, this guy just don't come to make trouble for himself, even if this is really a middle school student...... Although this probability is close to none, Zhu Hao can still afford to pay one hundred taels.
"I'm not a gambler."
Sun Ru held his head high and looked proud.
Zhu Hao nodded: "The character is quite upright...... If you can pass the exam, I will still give you 100 taels, but if you don't pass the exam, you can give me 10 taels of silver...... One pays ten, now it should be okay, right? ”
"You...... You insult me? ”
Sun Ru heard it again.
Zhu Hao obviously looked down on him, and felt that he must not be able to pass the exam, so he would be so confident to take out the odds of one to ten to bet on him to lose.
Zhu Hao said: "I insulted you? I'm giving you a chance to make money...... Aren't you very confident? Why, you don't even want to accept the bet of one to ten? Are you embarrassed to tell me that I insulted you? I'm afraid you're insulting yourself, right? ”
When Sun Ru heard this, his face turned red, and he felt a kind of indignation at being humiliated, and he almost jumped up and fought with Zhu Hao.
"This Young Master Zhu, you dissipate your anger first."
The old servant who had been following behind Sun Ru walked out, "That's the case, my young master came to visit at the order of the old lady, if you have offended before, I hope you don't blame it." ”
Even the servants couldn't listen to it anymore, and began to dismantle the platform of their young master.
Zhu Hao said: "The old lady you said is ......"
"It's the high hall of my young master." The old servant said.
"Oh, what the old lady means...... Let your young master learn from me? Or are you betting against me? Or do you want to settle accounts with me? Zhu Hao asked with a smile.
The old servant said: "My old lady hopes that the young master can get your advice and get the student as soon as possible, so that the lintel of my grandson's house will be bright, if it happens...... Thank you generously, even if I let my young master worship you as a teacher. ”
When Zhu Hao heard it, he could do it, boy.
Your wife is much more discerning than you!
If you hadn't had a good mother, see how I entertained you today, so that you couldn't get along in the local Shilin, would you believe it or not?
Since your wife has entrusted a servant to intercede, then I will spare you for the time being.
"That's right, I'm usually busy with my studies, so I don't have much time to teach disciples," Zhu Hao said ......with a smile.
The old servant looked flattering and nodded: "Young Master Zhu's background, we have all inquired clearly, you are the son of the Zhu family of the Thousand Households of Jinyi Wei, and Ling Zun is a loyal general who is loyal to the country...... Fan Xuezheng has been a teacher in the palace, and I heard that even a high Confucian like Yuan Changshi praised your learning......"
Zhu Hao thought to himself, I am very careful in your investigation.
Did you know that Tang Yin also taught in the palace?
Look at what you mean, you have the potential to be a brocade guard, and you have inquired about the news so thoroughly.
"What my old lady means, if you are willing to accept my young master as a disciple, my young master will be counting on you for his studies in the future, since you dare to boast of betting with Fan Xuezheng, if you want to have such confidence, my old lady is also optimistic, thinking that you can mention my young master to successfully obtain fame."
In the end, it seems that Zhu Hao is put together.
Roughly speaking, if you don't accept it, you will lose your reputation.
