Chapter 540: If You Can't Be a Shangshu, You Can Be a Guozhang (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
After part-time work in the afternoon, Yang Shen called Zhu Hao and went to Sun Jiao's mansion together.
Each took a carriage and arrived at an official mansion with front and rear feet, which was the mansion arranged by the emperor for Sun Jiao to perform his duties in Beijing, so that Sun Jiao would be used by Sun Jiao in the court for the next few years, of course, Zhu Hao knew very well that Sun Jiao had only worked for more than a year in history before he resigned and returned to his hometown.
An old minister like Sun Jiao, who returned to Beijing as the head of the household department, was more to sell the favor of the palace and complete the handover of the Zhengde and Jiajing dynasties, and his enthusiasm for the official career was not high.
There is no mistake
Yang Shen and Zhu Hao were about to enter the door when another carriage stopped.
There were two people who got out of the carriage, one was Tang Yin, and the other was Jiang Lun.
Mr. Lu...... Oh no, I should call Mr. Tang, how did you get here? Zhu Hao greeted Tang Yin with a smile.
Yang Shen immediately set his eyes on Tang Yin.
In front of you is the famous Jiangnan genius Tang Yin and Tang Bohu?
Yang Shen looked at it up and down, he heard his father mention a lot of amazing actions after the new emperor ascended the throne, according to the analysis, Tang Yin was behind the scenes, he really couldn't see what this dry little old man without a little wealth and nobility had any ability.
"Ouch, this is not Zhu ...... Petty officials? When I entered the Hanlin Academy, it was different from before...... Hey, who's this? ”
Tang Yin didn't answer, and Jiang Lun on the side took the lead to get acquainted.
In front of Yang Shen, a scene still has to be performed.
When Zhu Hao first met Yang Shen, he didn't mention Tang Yin, Yang Shen naturally wondered if Zhu Hao deliberately concealed this matter, but Zhu Hao's title after meeting Tang Yin directly answered a question in Yang Shen's heart, and he called Tang Yin "Mr. Lu", which means that I know this person, but I didn't know his true identity before.
If you go to verify, you will find out at that time that Tang Yin's pseudonym in Xingwang's Mansion is "Lu Someone", and only a few people such as Xingwang's father and son and Yuan Zonggao may know his true identity.
So I didn't hide it, it was all because I didn't know.
Yang Shen said: "Under Yang Shen, the word is repaired." ”
"Ahhh Disrespectful and disrespectful, under the surname Jiang, the word Meng Zai, is ......"
Jiang Lun wanted to introduce himself in front of Yang Dacaizi, but he was interrupted by Zhu Hao as soon as he finished speaking: "Mr. Jiang, everyone knows your name, you are the younger brother of Princess Xing...... You and Mr. Tang didn't come here to visit Sun Laoshangshu, right? ”
"Ah......h
Jiang Lun glanced at Tang Yin, saw Tang Yin's face indifferent, and thought to himself that you master and apprentice can sing Shuanghuang, and my performance is very average, even if the trick is told to me in advance, it is still not good.
Yang Shen was relieved to see that Zhu Hao could interrupt Jiang Lun's words casually.
He couldn't imagine that Zhu Hao's status in Xingwangfu was far higher than Jiang Lun's, plus Jiang Lun's son was Zhu Hao's disciple, and the person who usually called the other party Mr. was not Zhu Hao but Jiang Lun.
Because it's so familiar.
In Yang Shen's eyes, Zhu Hao did not give Jiang Lun any face, and in this way showed that there was a clear distinction between him and Xingwangfu.
Tang Yin bowed his hand to Yang Shen: "Yang Gongzi, when I came down to meet Sun Shangshu of the household department, I was ordered by His Majesty to persuade him to stay in Beijing...... I heard that the master of ceremonies, Gonggong Xiao, asked Lingzun to help make peace, it seems that you are here for the same purpose as me? ”
Yang Shen was angry when he heard this.
How did you come across it so coincidentally?
You Tang Yin is here to persuade Sun Jiao to stay, and I am here to persuade Sun Jiao to resign resolutely, our goals are not the same at all.
But you all know that the emperor once sent Xiao Jing to ask my father for help, so it can be seen that you are not low on the new imperial weapon, so I can only pretend to be a lake.
"Yes."
Yang Shen nodded slightly.
Tang Yin sent out an invitation: "Then let's go together, Brother Meng Zai, please go and knock on the door, and we will enter together." ”
……
……
After knocking on the door, the family brought by Sun Jiao opened the door.
Hearing that it was the envoy sent by the emperor and Yang Tinghe respectively, the Sun family attached great importance to it and hurriedly invited two groups of people into the courtyard, but as if there was an arrangement, Tang Yin and Jiang Lun were invited to the east courtyard, while Zhu Hao and Yang Shen were led to the west courtyard.
They found a house and settled down.
"Two distinguished guests, please wait, the next person is already preparing tea, my lord has just arrived, there are not many people around, if there is a place where the hospitality is not good, please Haihan." The Sun family was very polite.
Yang Shen nodded and motioned for the Sun family to go and prepare on their own.
After the others retreated, Yang Shen asked, "Do you know both of them?" ”
Zhu Hao said: "What don't you know...... Aunt Jiang and Mr. Tang, they were drinking friends when they were in the palace, and they liked to drink a few glasses together when they had nothing to do...... Mr. Tang taught in the palace, and he used to think that his surname was Lu, who would have thought that he was actually the famous Tang Bohu. ”
Yang Shen heard Zhu Hao talk about things so frankly, and his favor increased sharply.
It was also because he had a misunderstanding in his heart, which was brought to him by Yang Tinghe, and Yang Tinghe clearly told him that Zhu Hao's family was involved in the murder of the new emperor's brother, and Zhu Hao was a fine work sent by Jinyiwei to Xingwangfu, so even if Zhu Hao was familiar with the people in Xingwangfu, it was impossible to get on the same boat.
"It's not easy, you know so much about the affairs of King Xing's mansion......" Yang Shen smiled.
There is a sense of pride that "God helps me".
Zhu Hao said: "The purpose of their coming here is different from us, right?" ”
Yang Shen nodded and asked, "What do you think?" ”
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "When Sun Lao was in Anlu, he was fond of mountains and rivers, and rarely interacted with local gentry...... Sun Lao's mind should not want to get involved in court affairs again, so I don't think he will choose to stay in the capital. ”
"Hmm."
Yang Shen nodded, and suddenly asked, "Zhu Hao, at your age, you shouldn't be married yet, right?" ”
Zhu Hao was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Then you are in your hometown, does your family promise you a marriage?"
Yang Shen seems to be very concerned about Zhu Hao's lifelong events.
Zhu Hao shook his head.
Yang Shen smiled deeply, with a hint of urgency in his smile, as if he was thinking about something.
Zhu Hao naturally knew what Yang Shen's idea was, but he didn't reveal it.
Just as they were thinking about their hearts, a crisp female voice suddenly came from the door: "Uncle Dong, my father has summoned guests to meet him, please say hello." ”
The person did not show his face, but faintly saw a white figure from the open door from the corner of the moon gate flickering, from his words can be known, this person is the daughter of Sun Jiao, the voice is childish, the age should not be very old, but for some reason there is a vicissitudes of seeing through the cold of the world.
Yang Shen didn't wait for the servants of the Sun family to come in and invite him, he had already gotten up and walked to the door, as if he wanted to chase over to see the woman's appearance.
But when he arrived at the door, the people had already left, and there was no trace, only the old servant who had led the way before stood at the door, and he was a little surprised that Yang Shen looked at the door, looked up and then bowed and saluted: "Two distinguished guests, my lord is invited." ”
……
……
Zhu Hao and Yang Shen walked to the hall together.
"Who?"
Zhu Hao pretended not to know and asked with a smile.
Yang Shen did not answer.
Zhu Hao knew very well in his heart that it was Sun Jiao's daughter, and what her name was was unknown to outsiders.
But this woman was the first Zhu Youqi in the picture, and wanted to accept her as the princess of Zhu IV, but was politely declined by Sun Jiao, and before he got married, he learned that Zhu Si became the emperor, for fear of being angered by the Xingwang Mansion, and later did not marry the little daughter of the Sun family in her life.
This time, Princess Jiang was instructed by her son to forcibly bring Sun Jiao to Beijing as the head of the household.
Princess Jiang saw that her son wanted to value this old minister of the court who was born in Anlu and had a lot of connections with Xingwangfu, so she made her own proposal and asked Sun Jiao to bring the little girl to the capital, with one purpose, although the marriage contract was not set that year, Xingwangfu did not intend to give up, and the marriage could continue to be discussed.
Sun Jiao went north this time, except for his old bones, he only brought this little daughter, in fact, it was clear that Princess Jiang wanted to give her son a daughter-in-law, so that Sun Jiao became the old father-in-law of the current emperor, so what reason did Sun Jiao have not to serve the new emperor?
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world......
Princess Jiang did this, it was nothing, but she didn't care about the thoughts of other people's grandchildren at all.
When that kid was the son of King Xing, we didn't want to be involved with him, and now that he is the emperor, do you still want to mess around?
That is, I can't fight with you now, otherwise I have to condemn you, this kind of forced marriage without the woman's will is shameful.
……
……
The main hall of the prefectural court.
When Zhu Hao and Yang Shen arrived, Jiang Lun and Tang Yin had already come first, and an old man with a gray beard was sitting in the main hall, talking to Tang Yin with a smile, it seemed that they had been chatting for a while.
"I've seen Sun Lao."
After Yang Shen came in, he took the lead in saluting.
Zhu Hao, as Yang Shen's entourage, just follow behind and arch his hand.
Sun Jiao got up and walked in front of Yang Shen, and said in surprise: "You are the eldest son of Jiefu, use Xiu?" But he said that when you were in the court, the old man had met you a few times, and suddenly ten years had passed. ”
Yang Shen was a Jinshi in the sixth year of Zhengde, and Sun Jiao resigned and returned to his hometown in the eighth year of Zhengde, and the two intersected in the court for two years.
But the number of times the two sides really met was not much, but Sun Jiao had a good relationship with Yang Tinghe, Yang Ting and Yu Zhengde succeeded Li Dongyang as the first assistant of the cabinet in seven years, Yang Tinghe at that time was far less strong than today, and Sun Jiao was an old friend.
Yang Shen bowed and saluted: "The younger generation has always remembered the teachings of Sun Lao, and has never forgotten to study diligently. ”
"Okay."
Sun Jiao said with a smile, "Jiefu taught a good son, which is enviable!" ”
immediately introduced Yang Shen: "You should know these two, right?" One is Jiang Mengzai of Xingwangfu, and the other is Tang Bohu, who is famous, now you are ministers in the same palace, but you have to work together. This is ......"
After Sun Jiao's introduction, he found that there was still a teenager standing next to Yang Shen.
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Old Sun, my name is Zhu Hao, I am also from Anlu Prefecture, and I just entered the Hanlin Academy this year. ”
"Uh...... Yes! ”
Sun Jiao suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Lun and Tang Yin.
It seems very strange, since he is Zhu Hao, why didn't he come with the two of you, but came with Yang Shen? What's so funny about this?
