Chapter 517: Old Friends
A humble house.
A hanging dusk lantern.
A very good table of dishes and a pot of the best wine.
Hua Manting and Su Yi'an were chatting under this light.
Su Yi'an was very dissatisfied with Wang Zhengjinzhong's proposal to Su Fu.
Because in his heart, although the Jiangnan Su clan has now declined, it is still a scholarly family.
The heritage is still there.
Daughter Su Meng was forced by the embarrassing situation faced by the Su family, and was taken to Mushan Sword to practice martial arts by the old man of the Su family, which was originally a last resort.
What he thought, when his daughter came back after the ceremony, the husband he promised to marry should be a man of letters.
He didn't like the Murong family, because the Murong family was a martial arts family.
As a literati, he was generally dismissive of Takefu.
has a brute force, only knows how to fight and kill, and it is too far from what Su Yi'an expected to pass on the text-
"If my uncle is a martial artist, think about it, if my father-in-law drinks with this uncle......"
"I'm talking about poetry and articles, I'm talking about grievances and grievances, I'm talking about peace and fighting, and I say swords and swords...... Isn't this a chicken-and-duck story? ”
"Besides, the little girl Su Meng is also a female genius in her bones. Although she has practiced a little kung fu now, there will be no change in essence, how can she fall in love with a young man with his head in the rivers and lakes? ”
Su Yi'an poured a bowl of wine for Hua Manting, shook his head and sighed, and said hatefully:
"That Wang Zheng Jinzhong, relying on his status as the Imperial City Division, and relying on the fact that he is a close confidant of the regent, he forcibly promoted himself...... Isn't this bullying?! ”
"For the sake of the little girl's future, I can't agree to this marriage!"
"So, I asked Yuhe to go back and refuse this marriage...... When I was an official in Kyoto, he Wang Zhengjinzhong was still an unknown little spy in the Imperial City Division, and I still didn't believe that he dared to force it! ”
Hua Manting immediately laughed when he heard this.
"I said you...... How long has it been since you and Su Meng met? ”
"This ...... It's been about eight years. ”
"Eight years, Su Meng was only about seven years old at that time. Eight years is enough time for a person to change dramatically, not to mention that she has changed from a little girl to a big girl. ”
"Seven years old is an ignorant age, and your understanding of her is still at that time."
Now she is fifteen or sixteen years old, sensible, sensible, and knows her choice...... Since she is in Mushan Dao, of course she knows Wang Zhenghaoxuan, the son of Wang Zhengjinzhong, and is extremely familiar with it. ”
"She knows Wang Zhenghao far better than you!"
"Wang Zheng Jinzhong doesn't know your little daughter, why did he suddenly go to Sufu to propose marriage?"
"That must have been his son!"
"Since his son said so, I'm afraid that the two younger ones are in Mushan Knife, and they have been booked for life."
"Aren't you beating mandarin ducks in a daze?!"
Su Yi'an was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment, and still said stubbornly: "But what is the place of the Imperial City Division?" ”
"That's the Hades Palace!"
"Wang Zheng Jinzhong is now the promotion of the Imperial City Division, then he is another king of Hades after the eldest grandson Jinghong!"
"Can I marry such a person?"
Hua Manting picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, and looked at Su Yi'an again.
"You really don't know the great changes in Ningguo now!"
"Isn't it Li Chenan who became the regent of Ning Kingdom?"
"That's a huge change in itself! Listen to the old man tell you in detail. ”
"Let's start with this Imperial City Division."
"When the eldest grandson Jinghong was alive, Li Chenan was the deputy promoter of the Imperial City Division. After the death of the eldest grandson, Jinghong...... Today's Imperial City Division is completely different from the past. ”
Su Yi'an was taken aback: "Why is it different?" ”
"In the warm spring of this year, there will be many flowers blooming in the Imperial City Division, if you go to see it, you will see a beautiful scene of purple and red!"
Su Yi'an's eyes widened, he couldn't imagine that there would be such a bright spring light in that place that was dark and gloomy all year round.
But he believed that since Hua Manting said so, it was true.
This means that after the death of the eldest grandson Jinghong, the Imperial City Division walked out of the horror and gloom under the instruction of Li Chen'an, walked into the sun, and walked into the spring light.
This is a change in its appearance, but it represents a change in the functions of the Imperial City Division.
"Li Chen'an, the old man's old friend......"
Hua Manting said slowly, starting from the third day of March last year in Guangling City, talking about the song "Will Enter the Wine", talking about the pot of wine on the table, and talking about Kyoto.
Su Yi'an didn't interject a word.
He and Hua Manting drank wine and ate food slowly, listening to Hua Manting tell the story of the young man, and when he heard it, it was two hours.
The dish has been cold.
The wine is gone.
Hua Manting's words were still unfinished, and Su Yi'an suddenly found that his heart, which was already indifferent and calm, had a ripple before.
Especially the last words of Hua Manting:
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations...... Isn't that what you dreamed of when you were studying? ”
"When Ji Tai was in power, not only you, but also those who had this ideal in the world could not show their ambitions."
"But now Ji Tai is dead, and all those officials in Ji Tai's family are dead!"
"Ning Guo's original lifeless and smoky imperial court is now as new as the Imperial City Division."
"You know Wen Zhuanyu, you are also very familiar with Nian Chengfeng, and there are many people who were unambitious at that time, and now they are all standing on top of the temple!"
"They are all proud people!"
"Why are they willing to come out as officials now?"
"Because they saw a light!"
"A ray of hope!"
"You are a person with great ability, and it coincides with the new birth of Ningguo, which is exactly the time when talents like you are needed...... If you miss ......"
Hua Manting leaned over and said meaningfully:
"I'm afraid I'll really regret it for life!"
Su Yi'an understood.
He knew that he had too much prejudice against the young regent.
Now listening to Hua Manting's details, he knows what kind of person the regent is.
That young man not only has the talent of poetry and immortals, he also has a good way to govern the country!
He dares to use people, and he dares to hand over power to those who use it!
He saw the shortcomings of Ning Guo very clearly, and although Hua Manting did not elaborate on his policy of governance, it can be seen from his first fall on Jiangnan Province that he will definitely carry out the rectification of the country's officials.
It's just that......
"Heavy on industry and commerce over agriculture...... I don't quite understand that. ”
"The people take food as the sky, this is the eternal truth, after he stabilized the internal affairs, he should vigorously encourage agriculture...... Why start with business and industry? ”
Hua Manting raised his eyebrows, "The old man doesn't know, so you need to ask him personally." ”
"Go to Kyoto and ask him?"
"No, there are about three or five days left, and he will arrive in Jingning County!"
"He's coming to see you...... Wen Boilyu has recommended you to him, you can ask him when the time comes! ”
Su Yi'an pondered for a moment, and suddenly looked forward to it:
“…… Good! ”
