Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Yellow Sparrow
Outside the Guozi Prison in the capital, many pedestrians stopped, raised their heads to watch the dispute in front of the Guozi Prison, and some good deeds were happy to say: "The previous Guozi Prison sacrificed wine to death, and the Guozi Prison had a small quarrel for five days and a big quarrel for ten days, but it really made us idlers see a lot of jokes!" ”
The old man frowned and said, "This is the capital, how can you talk nonsense like this!" What kind of place is this country? That is the place where the Son of Heaven is selected, if the officials of the Guozi Prison are not upright, how can this selected talent be the real pillars? ”
The people chatted enthusiastically, but the atmosphere between the officials and students on the other side was a little delicate. Su Qingyi, Huang Ruizao, and the students all stared at Pan Yun who suddenly spoke, waiting for him to say something to break the situation.
Pan Yun, who was being watched by everyone, took a step forward and arched his hand to the students: "I know what you are asking for, I am also a prisoner from the Guozi Prison, and I know that you just don't want your teacher to be a person of despicable character." However, you also have to think about the difficulties of Lord Siye, this rumor is so fierce outside, but in the end it is just a rumor. If you make such a fuss, it will be difficult for the master of the business to do it, and it is much more difficult to prove that there is no evidence. ”
Su Qingyi nodded in agreement and bowed his hand to Pan Yun: "Dr. Pan is still right. ”
Among the students, Huang Jiayun received a hint from Huang Ruizao's eyes, and said unconvinced: "Flies don't bite seamless eggs, and such rumors can be spread, it is also because Lord Si Ye does not cultivate his personal morality and does not discipline his family." For that reason alone, Master Siye shouldn't continue to teach in the country! ”
Many students who received the benefits of Huang Jiayun also echoed: "That's right! ”
Su Qingyi's face turned blue with anger, and he knew in his heart that the students were being picked up by others, and it was not good to reprimand them loudly, but he didn't know how to prove himself, so he could only shout: "Nonsense! ”
Pan Yun's face hesitated, and he said hesitantly to Su Qingyi: "Lord Siye, I don't have a good word, in my opinion, this matter was just because Hu sacrificed wine died of illness at the beginning, and the position of sacrifice wine was vacant, so there were so many rumors. The students are clamoring for a result, so why don't you just give them a result, and simply write a book to show that you don't have any idea about the sacrificial position. This rumor has become what it is now, and if you take up the position of sacrificial wine again, even if you are innocent, it is not clear. ”
Huang Ruizao's purpose was just to compete for the sacrificial wine position, and when he saw Pan Yun taking the initiative to point this out, he also echoed: "Dr. Pan's words are reasonable. ”
Su Qingyi stared at Pan Yun's face, for the first time he felt that Pan Yun's gentle and gentle appearance was so unfamiliar, thinking of the news that Su Shi had handed him early in the morning, he snorted coldly and said, "The body is not afraid of shadows." I didn't make a mistake, so why should I avoid suspicion? Taking the initiative to read a book, doesn't it show that I have a ghost in my heart? What's more, even if I really make a mistake by not cultivating my personal virtues, it should be written to Your Majesty by the Ministry of Officials in charge of auditing officials and the Imperial History Platform who is responsible for admonishment, and Your Majesty will make a decision and issue a document! Your Majesty's documents have not been issued for a day, and I will not personally resign for a day! ”
After speaking, Su Qingyi threw off his sleeves and left, completely ignoring the students behind him whose voices were getting louder and louder, and Pan Yun and Huang Ruizao, who suddenly looked cold.
Huang Jiayun suddenly encouraged the students and said, "Have you seen it all!" That Su Qing is a hypocrite, we must not let him continue to stay in the country! We might as well go to other schools and tell more students about Su Qingyi's evil deeds, so that all Confucian students can see his face clearly, and it is best to make a big deal and spread it to His Majesty's ears! ”
The students echoed one after another, and Pan Yun symbolically persuaded a few words, then stood aside with Huang Ruizao, and watched the students leave together.
Huang Ruizao proudly raised his chin to his son Huang Jiayun and walked back to the house with brisk steps.
Pan Yun, who stayed in place, sneered in his heart. The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind, waiting for Huang Ruizao and the Hu family to pull Su Qingyi down, and then he shakes out the of Hu Zhezhang and Huang Ruizao.
There are two flowers, one for each branch, and on the teahouse on the other side, Ye Qiong has already called Ye Er to come over and ask him to check the details of Pan Yun.
Seeing that Pan Yun also jumped out at this time, his words seemed to persuade each other, but in fact, he forced Su Qingyi to give up the competition for the sacrificial wine position, Ye Qiong had already determined that Pan Yun would not be simple.
The one who bought Mrs. He was the Hu family who supported Huang Ruizao, so the rumors of bribery can be determined to be spread by the Hu family and Huang Ruizao.
And Pan Yun, when Uncle Su and Huang Ruizao did not give in, put forward the seemingly compromise of "avoiding suspicion", did he want to support Huang Ruizao to compete for the position of sacrificial wine, or did he have another purpose?
Thinking of this, Ye Qiong couldn't help muttering: "Pan Yun's purpose in speaking at this time is really to help Huang Ruizao?" ”
This reminded Lu Chunwang, he said, "Miss Ye also thinks it's wrong? After my investigation, Pan Yun is not good at socializing, and most of the officials in Guozi Prison, including Huang Ruizao, are just nodding friends. But he is kind and benevolent, whether it is officials or students, they are full of praise when they talk about him, and the voice of support for him to compete for the position of sacrificial wine is not small......"
A flash of inspiration flashed in Ye Qiong's mind, and fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on her forehead.
If you look at it from Pan Yun's standpoint, Pan Yun and Huang Ruizao have no personal relationship, and at this time, he spoke out to help Huang Ruizao and let Huang Ruizao win the position of sacrificial wine, and the benefits he got were just to make Huang Ruizao owe him a favor.
However, how can a favor be greater than the benefits brought by getting the sacrificial wine?
Huang Ruizao killed Uncle Su, but ignored Pan Yun, who also had a lot of voice in the Guozi Prison, this is a situation where the praying mantis catches cicadas and the yellow finch is behind!
If this is the case, Pan Yun may have the support of another force behind him, otherwise, he will not be able to swallow the fat of the sacrificial wine position.
Ye Qiong informed Lu Chunwang of these opinions, and Lu Chunwang also thought of this, but he was still a little hesitant and said, "I have already checked all the people in the Guozi Prison. Pan Yun is a person, his identity background is too clean, he was born in a poor family, there is only an old mother and a pair of wives and children in the family, and he only has some contacts with the officials and students of the Guozijian on weekdays, and his biggest hobby is just to go to the antique stall to buy calligraphy and paintings, and there is really nothing obvious suspicious about anything else. ”
Ye Qiong frowned and said, "If it is really as clean as you say, he will not be able to do the position of Dr. Zhengwupin, and it is very likely that he will have the support of another force other than the Hu family behind him." It seems that we still have to wait for Ye Er to come back and find out the details of Pan Yun before we can figure out what to do next. ”
Moreover, Lu Chunwang did not mention that Pan Yun was a doctor who specially taught the descendants of the princes and the sons and grandsons of the Heavenly Family, and the students he taught were people who were in the center of power.
With these people, why did Pan Yun have to associate with other officials?
If this is the case, how many forces that she knows and does not know are involved in the troubled waters of the dispute over the sacrificial wine of the country......
Ye Qiong sat in the teahouse and continued to wait for Ye Er's news, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
If it is really as she guessed, it may be quite risky to investigate Pan Yun, is it too hasty for her to send Ye Er out......
Seeing Ye Qiong's frowning appearance, although Lu Chunwang was also a little worried, he still persuaded him: "Miss Ye, Ye Er is a smart person who is good at improvisation, even if he really encounters any danger, it is more than enough to protect himself, and the girl can also relax." ”
Ye Qiong straightened out her mind, but remembered another thing, and said: "Speaking of which, Mr. Lu's knowledge is so good, it would be too condescending for you to stay in the small Ye family." Does Mr. Lu have the idea of entering the country? ”
Lu Chunwang was slightly stunned, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I can't hide it, Lu is Jizhou Xie Yuan, and he is qualified to enter the Guozijian to study." But...... Now, entering the Guozijian is just a luxury for Lu. ”
Ye Qiong disagreed, and said: "Your Xie Yuan name can't be faked." Even if you are now uprooted from your hometown and living in the capital, as long as you are willing to admit and go to Jizhou to verify, the quota of this Guozijian is still yours. Of course, the premise of this method is that Uncle Su can compete for the position of sacrificial wine. If not...... Wenshan Academy is also a good place to go. ”
Ye Qiong's tone was relaxed, but Lu Chunwang's eyes were hot, and he stood up silently and saluted Ye Qiong.
Lu Chunwang knew that although Ye Qiong had already stated that he would provide funding for the Lu family, this was at the expense of himself as a staff member of the Ye family. At first, Lu Chunwang just thought that his mother and sister could have a tile to cover themselves, but he didn't expect Ye Qiong to be willing to instruct him on how to be an official, and even think about supporting him to enter the Guozijian for himself.
It's not a deal, it's a favor. Therefore, Ye Qiong deserves his worship.
Ye Qiong did not help Lu Chunwang up, and accepted this worship frankly.
Speechless for a while, the two sat quietly for a while, and when Ye Qiong's heart became more and more uneasy and wanted to call someone to find Ye Er, Du Juan hurriedly knocked on the door and entered the private room, and reported to Ye Qiong: "Girl, Ye Er was sent back by Lu Gongzi's people. Lu Gongzi asked the girl to pass a message, saying that he was waiting for you in Ye Mansion and had something important to discuss with you. ”
Ye Qiong had a sigh in her heart, she knew Lu Shaodan's identity.
Ye Er was sent by her to check Pan Yun's identity and background, but now he was sent back by Lu Shaodan, it seems that the problem behind Pan Yun is indeed too big.
But fortunately, it was Lu Shaodan who sent Ye Er back.
For Lu Shaodan, Ye Qiong has always been trustworthy.
Ye Qiong stood up, straightened her wrinkled skirt, and her tone relaxed: "Brother Shaodan came to Ye Mansion as a guest, how can I not accompany him, let's go back to the house." ”
I don't know what kind of news Lu Shaodan will bring to her that will surprise her?
