Yeongkookfu, northeast corner, Rihyangwon.

In the front hall, Xue Pan stood under the hall solemnly, looking quite cramped, and there were two people sitting on the left and right in the hall, one was Xue Pan's mother Aunt Xue, and the other was Xue Pan's uncle Wang Ziteng, who made Xue Pan look cramped.

Wang Ziteng originally came to Jiafu to mourn, and had met Jia Yun in the mourning hall before, but the two did not talk much, just exchanged two words, and then came to Rongguo Mansion to see the old lady, and then came to Lixiangyuan to see his sister-in-law and niece.

Although Wang Ziteng is not confused, his posture is as tall as a pine, his momentum is as strong as the sun, and his eyes are as bright as cold stars under his sword eyebrows.

Xue Pan lost his father since he was a child, and Aunt Xue at home was used to spoiling, so she naturally developed such an indulgent temperament as Xue Pan, so that Xue Pan acted without scruples, and no one was afraid, so he killed someone in Jinling.

Although he is not afraid of heaven and earth, Xue Pan is not afraid of his uncle.

Wang Ziteng will not show mercy when he disciplines him, even Aunt Xue, who dotes on him, does not dare to speak.

God is pitiful, he doesn't want to see his uncle..............

Wang Ziteng in the hall chatted with Aunt Xue for a few words, and then looked down at Xue Pan, who was "thief-eyed and mouse-eyed", Xue Pan seemed to be aware of it, and hurriedly stood up straight, waiting for the "reprimand".

Wang Ziteng glanced at Xue Pan a few times, Xue Pan's cold sweat was about to flow out of his forehead, and at this time, Wang Ziteng said: "Pan'er, the nobles in the capital are everywhere, and you will be more restrained in the future, if something goes wrong, I will break your legs." ”

Xue Pan nodded hurriedly when he heard this, promising not to dare to come nonsense.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue on the side hurriedly spoke: "Big brother, Pan'er has been much more well-behaved recently, but she hasn't caused trouble." ”

Wang Ziteng said dissatisfiedly when he heard this: "Loving mother has many defeated children, Pan'er has this virtue, and you are also responsible." ”

Aunt Xue was also helpless when she heard Wang Ziteng training her, after all, she was her eldest brother, and she couldn't talk back, in addition to the friendship between brothers and sisters, the most important thing was that Aunt Xue was widowed, and there was no man beside her to help her, if it weren't for Wang Ziteng's eldest brother to take care of her, how could the side branches of the Xue family allow their orphans and widows to be the masters.....

In the end, it is his sister, Wang Ziteng is also distressed when he sees Aunt Xue's helpless appearance, after all, Xue Pan is her only hope in the Xue family, except for following Xue Pan, Aunt Xue can't do anything.

I saw Wang Ziteng admonishing Xue Pan: "I don't care about your absurd things in the past, and in the future, I will be more restrained, don't make trouble and make your mother cry." ”

What else could Xue Pan say at this time, except for Ying Cheng, he didn't dare to say a word more, for fear that Wang Ziteng would "discipline" him.

"By the way, eldest brother, sister, there is something I want to ask you here."

Aunt Xue couldn't bear it when she saw her son's trembling appearance, so she opened her mouth to get down to business, saving Wang Ziteng from staring at Xue Pan's words.

Wang Ziteng took a sip of the tea cup on the case, and asked suspiciously: "What's the matter?" ”

Aunt Xue glanced at Xue Pan, and then told Wang Ziteng about Xue Baochai's alternative talent and asked Wang Ziteng's opinion.

After listening to this, Wang Ziteng looked at the demure Xue Baochai in the hall and fell into deep thought, and after a long time, Wang Ziteng opened his mouth and asked, "Bao girl, what do you think?" ”

Xue Baochai replied: "Everything is up to my uncle. ”

The so-called "mother-in-law and uncle", Xue Baochai expressed his attitude in a simple sentence.

And in fact, Xue Baochai's opinion is not important.

Wang Ziteng nodded when he heard this, satisfied with Xue Baochai's answer, like Xue Baochai is so knowledgeable, Wang Ziteng is very satisfied with this niece in his heart, compared to the nephew who caused trouble, it is a pity that Xue Baochai is a daughter, if not, Aunt Xue will not let Xue Pan, the only son, come to Hulai.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Ziteng said: "If you have a father-in-law in the palace to help you with one or two, you might as well give it a try." ”

Hearing this, Xue Baochai was calm, but Aunt Xue's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said: "Big brother thinks it's feasible, then there's no problem." ”

After a pause, Aunt Xue asked again: "Brother, you have been an official in the capital for many years, do you know who Princess Na Leping is?" If she has a bad temperament, her sister doesn't dare to send her daughter in. ”

Wang Ziteng raised his eyes and looked at Xue Baochai, dignified and demure, with a beautiful appearance.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Princess Na Leping is the youngest daughter of the Emperor Taishang, the younger sister of King Ning's mother, and she has been favored by the Emperor Taishang since she was a child. ”

Hearing Wang Ziteng say this, Aunt Xue's eyes became more and more eager, after all, if she was a princess who no one cared about, which young lady from a big family would be willing to suffer.

"But ................"

Wang Ziteng frowned slightly, and Aunt Xue suddenly became nervous when she saw this, and hurriedly asked, "Big brother, is there anything wrong?" ”

Wang Ziteng shook his head, and then said: "I heard that Princess Leping is very messy, wearing "shiyi" all day long, and she doesn't look like a daughter at all, and because of this, Princess Leping's reputation is not very good, and the ministers of the court and the central government are reluctant to send their daughters to the palace to study, just for fear of affecting the reputation of the family. ”

Aunt Xue came back to her senses when she heard this, and frowned: "What does that big brother mean..."

Everyone else is worried about the reputation of the family, but isn't the Xue family also worried about one or two?

Wang Ziteng replied indifferently: "It's okay to give it a try, in the end, it's the daughter's family, it's not worth a big deal, that is, those sour Confucians care about these things." ”

Although the Xue family is famous in their ancestors, it can be passed down to this day, it is already a family of merchants, and the situation is becoming more and more unoptimistic, and a little reputation is not in the way.

And Wang Ziteng is a foreign surname in the end, and he can't always take care of the Xue family, in the final analysis, if he is chosen, he can also have a backer in the future, which is also beneficial to the Xue family.

Aunt Xue nodded when she heard this, since her eldest brother said that she could give it a try, there was naturally no problem, after all, Wang Ziteng had always taken care of her sister, and he would never harm her.

Then Aunt Xue bowed her head to Xue Pan in the hall and said: "Pan'er, you also heard what your uncle said, since this is the case, then you go and talk to that Dai father-in-law, let him help him, and the benefits will not be short of him." ”

Xue Pan hurriedly responded: "Mom, don't worry, my son knows." ”

After a pause, Xue Pan hesitated: "However, that Father-in-law Dai also said it, just to help one or two, whether it succeeds or not has to be said separately." ”

Xue Pan still has to say this carefully, if it doesn't work, Wang Ziteng will blame himself for not being able to do it.

For being exempted from Wang Ziteng's punishment, Xue Pan's IQ is rising gradually.

Wang Ziteng said in a deep voice when he heard this: "Because of this, I feel that I can give it a try, if that Dai's father-in-law is a big deal, then I won't respond to this matter." ”

If there is someone in the palace, it is naturally convenient, but if it is a eunuch who has a big package, it is surprising.

When did it take a eunuch to appoint a good man? All they can do is make things easier.

It's like cutting in line, or saying a nice word or two in front of a nobleman.....

After a pause, Wang Ziteng said to Xue Pan: "You go and try, it is good to succeed, if it fails, it is not a big deal." ”

With Wang Ziteng's words, Xue Pan's heart suddenly relaxed, and he hurriedly responded.

Xue Baochai on the side saw that Wang Ziteng and the others had finalized the matter, although he wanted to say something in his heart, but after thinking about it, he finally sighed...........
