Otherworldly Chapter 189: Crisis

The second master asked Young Master Tianen to inform Su You to enter the palace, but he didn't say where to find him. No matter, let's go in and talk about it. Baishan didn't see the Oke people in the agreed place. The two of them were not in a hurry to enter the palace, they waited in the outer square for nearly half an hour, but they still didn't see Keren, Baishan didn't know what Keren was delaying, and they couldn't wait here stupidly, the two decided to go in first, but people couldn't see that they would go to the Vientiane Hall to look for it.

The two of them came to the main hall again. Su You saw him again in the place where he met Sun Chongshan yesterday, and in addition to the colleagues he saw yesterday, there was also a new face around the second master. Seeing that his bearing is extraordinary, Su You guessed that he was an official. Sun Chongshan beckoned to him and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to find it, so we deliberately waited here in advance." You met these guys yesterday, so I won't introduce them anymore. This is the left waiter of the Magistrate's Court, Zheng Zhongyu and Lord Zheng!"

Zheng Zhongyu is sixty years away, burly, with big ears, a high forehead and a straight nose, and his appearance makes Su You feel like a heroic and uninhibited person. But when he looked at it, he felt the oppression of his gaze, and there was a flash of wisdom in it, as if he could see through the two of them.

Su You and Bai Shan didn't dare to slack off, so they hurriedly reported their names and saluted: "I've seen Master Zheng." ”

Zheng Zhongyu said: "The two are really young heroes, with a lofty spirit, and a talent!" Yesterday, I heard several scholars praise Su You's outstanding talent, and your exposition on the law also made me hear it, so I asked Sun Taixue to invite you to meet you, and I want to hear your high opinion again. ”

So that's the case, Su You glanced at Qin Cangyue, and couldn't see his attitude from his face, so he didn't know who praised him? Said respectfully: "Lord Zheng has benefited!" Yesterday, I opened my mouth in the next letter, and afterwards I also felt that I was bold. ”

After finishing speaking, he felt Qin Cangyue frown, and Su You hurriedly stopped. He also knew that being overly modest was pride, and he should not upset everyone. Sure enough, Qin Cangyue's brows eased again.

Zheng Zhongyu nodded and said, "You suggested that the law be divided into three, divided into law, law enforcement, and justice. The ministry and the government are three separate and mutually restrictive! Are there specific measures and how can they be implemented? ”

Su You didn't know anything about Xinhao's national policy or the law, and he didn't study how to comment, let alone implement it. He didn't dare to make things up, he just made suggestions, and the specific operation was of course considered by the executive department. Busy said: "It's just a flash of thought, and whether the actual operation is feasible needs to be studied by the adults in charge of each department." If you are a non-official official, which is your turn to talk nonsense? As the saying goes, if you are not in your position, you are not in your politics! ”

Zheng Zhongyu was noncommittal and said, "What if you are in his position?" ”

Su You was stunned, what does this mean? Is it to promote yourself to be an official? I think it's unlikely. He was just a commercial building supervisor, at best a businessman. As far as he knows, to participate in the imperial examination, only with fame can you be qualified to enter the office, and only when you enter the official can you become an official. He is not an official and does not have the conditions and foundation to be an official at all. Is there any other way to become an official? Then he looked at Zheng Zhongyu, and then at a few other people, waiting for him to decondense. Bai Shan next to him was also confused, and he naturally knew that under normal circumstances, Su You had no possibility of being an official directly.

Whether it was Sun Chongshan, Qin Cangyue, Du Ruhai and Zhao Zhongshu, who heard his insights yesterday, or Qian Guanzhong, the chief historian, and Wang Youlun, the palace supervisor, they all turned a blind eye to Su You's doubts, and an old god was there. Zheng Zhongyu also looked at Su You silently, still waiting for him to answer the question just now.

Su You said with a heart: "If I am the head of the constitutional station, of course I don't want someone to thin my power in the name of reforming the law, so I should pick and choose every means to obstruct it, causing the reform to be stillborn." Unless there is support from above, a final word, conflict is inevitable.

Then I might take a milder approach, and be more reasonable than factual. You can choose one or two cities to implement first, and then gradually spread to more cities after seeing results. It's like trying to plant a new crop, choosing a batch of experimental plots before planting them extensively. This gradual process will take a long time, and the resistance will be smaller, so as to avoid strong resistance and attack at the beginning. Be cautious after the development and do not travel to the pool. Speak with effective results, gradually advance, strive for wider support, and get enough help to implement it to the national ....... ”

At first, a few people had the idea of listening to it, and they didn't expect much. As the explanation progressed, their faces began to change and their eyes gradually brightened. None of them interjected, they all looked in contemplation, and then looked at each other, as if to say: It is indeed a talent!

Wait for Su You to finish speaking. It was Zheng Zhongyu who spoke out first, it seems that he is the person with the highest official position among several people. He said: "If you don't learn poetry, you can't speak." I heard Sun Taixue praise you for the words you made. I was amazed by your poetry, and yesterday I heard people talk about your performance and the verses you chanted, and you are indeed worthy of talent. So we also have the intention of meeting this time, and we are very satisfied with your performance! ”

It turned out that Sun Chongshan promoted himself, huh? He said that there were two Tai Bachelors who praised him, but was the other one Qin Cangyue? Su You couldn't help but get excited. Several of them were old foxes in officialdom, and looking at Su You's expression, they thought that he was overjoyed to be an official. This is also normal, as long as there are talented young people, who do not want to be officials, show their ambitions.

The other scholars all had kind faces and smiled. Qian Guanzhong and Wang Youlun, who were arguing yesterday over love and law, and who was behind because of Su You's suggestions, released the-for-tat confrontation between the two, and the two had a very good impression of Su You. Qian Guanzhong, the chief historian, said: "Yesterday, a peony poem in the outer square was really good, and then I heard that you chanted a hundred flowers in front of Shi Ling and a few boys. When a few of our old fellows heard this, they wanted to pull you into our staff office immediately. You must perform well tonight, if you can still come up with these two poems, you are the leader of this literary meeting! ”

Wang Youlun snorted: "How good it is to be a staff member with you, of course, it is also buried in my palace, so it is better to go to the Taixue Palace." He complained a little: "Such a good poem, why don't you wait for Wensai to come up with it?" At that time, we will naturally mention these works again to justify your name. It's just that if you want to win the championship in the Vientiane Hall and defeat Yun Ze Shizi, as Qian Lao said, you have to come up with a new work. ”

Su You was shocked. Still writing poetry tonight? He regretted it in his heart, and his face was a little ugly. When everyone saw it, they thought that he didn't have the confidence to come up with another masterpiece. A few people were a little worried, Wang Youlun guessed correctly, this kid was quick for a while, and he finished all the good works early.

Zheng Zhongyu seemed to have undiminished confidence in Su You, and he said calmly: "You already know the left waiter of my official residence magistrate. The Magistrate's Court has the power to investigate and adjudicate cases. But the final decision is still in the hands of Xiantai Shangshu, Zuo Cheng and other adults. Often, when a case progresses to the end, the higher authorities interfere arbitrarily, causing the opposite to be desired, and the case handling of the case by the magistrate court is subject to many restrictions and constraints.

So I have a feeling of surprise when I hear your suggestion, and I can't wait to hear more from you. Now I understand that I will be able to perform in the near future, and if you get support, maybe you can also be awarded an official and a half-position. For the time being, only a few of us know about this matter, and it will be interesting to see how the situation develops. ”

Su You wanted to refuse, but when he heard that it was just a tentative statement from a few people, it had not yet been determined, so he was not in a hurry to push it back, let's see if it was said!

Several people discussed the details again, and occasionally asked Su You for his opinion, and Su You answered all questions. Then Zheng Zhongyu left with Qian Guanzhong and Wang Youlun.

Several other scholars asked Su You about the poem he wrote yesterday, and Su You was forced to retell it. When he said that he met the imposing middle-aged man at the word stall, several people looked at each other a few times, but they were silent.

Su You didn't get any information from their expressions, and secretly sighed that these old foxes didn't change their faces, and they were really hidden. Du Ruhai and Zhao Zhongshu also said goodbye not long after, saying that they had something to do. Leaving Sun Chongshan and Qin Cangyue behind, Su You had the heart to explain the matter with Qin Ziyan that time, wanting Qin Cangyue to know that Ziyan was able to cultivate, and her illness would soon be cured. Because Sun Chongshan was there, he was a little hesitant.

Sun Chongshan said: "It's almost time, let's go to the Vientiane Palace, Wensai is about to start, Su You, you strive for another excellent performance, it will help us." ”

Su You's face was embarrassed. Bai Shan on the side was already secretly wiping his sweat, and this kid was probably glad that he didn't ask Brother Su for poetry. There was no way, so the two had to follow the two Tai Bachelors to the Vientiane Palace.

"Isn't this Sun Taixue and the second brother!" A soft and rigid voice sounded. Su You and Bai Shan looked at the people they met on the corridor,

He looks like a fifty-something, with a slender face, straight eyes and a straight nose, a white face and a long beard, and an elegant temperament. Su You heard him call Qin Cangyue "second brother", and guessed that he was Qin Ziyan's uncle.

Sure enough, I saw Sun Chongshan calling him Brother Jiangshan, and Qin Cangyue calling him Big Brother. Qin Jiangshan glanced at Su You Baishan before he said to Sun Chongshan: "Where is Sun Taixue going with his second brother?" I just have something to ask you for, shall we go to the pavilion and talk about it? ”

Sun Chongshan glanced at Su You and said: "The two of you follow this corridor to the end is the Xiaguang Palace, from the Xiaguang Palace is the Chrysanthemum Terrace, through the Chrysanthemum Garden is the Vientiane Palace, you go by yourself." ”

Su You and Bai Shan saluted the three and left. Sun Chongshan did not introduce them to Qin Jiangshan, and Qin Jiangshan did not ask. After the two left, Qin Jiangshan looked at their backs and said, "He is Su You who defeated Zhuo Quanyu?" He has an extraordinary appearance, outstanding temperament, and is a very good young man, and the people around him are also very imposing. Sun Chongshan smiled and thanked Qin Jiangshan for his compliment.

Qin Jiangshan pondered for a moment and said: "Recently, these businesses of the Guansun clan, utensils, cloths, clothing, and pills, have all been doing well. Qin was envious and didn't come, and was looking for a day to ask for advice on how to do business. Seeing Sun Taixue, it is arousing my thoughts, Qin wants to visit the house, when does Sun Taixue think it is better? I also want to greet the old patriarch. ”

Sun Chongshan said: "The head of the Qin family is visiting, you can set a good date." It's the New Year, the brothers who are outside are coming back, and the whole family will be there, and when you say it's appropriate. ”

Qin Jiangshan said: "I think the same way, get together a few years ago." Then tomorrow afternoon, I will bring my second son Wentang, Wenting and the little girl Ziqin to the mansion together, so that they can also listen to the business experience of the young masters and ladies of the Sun family. The little girl is twenty-two this year, she doesn't like to learn, but she likes to learn to study refining tools. She watched the refining competition yesterday and said that she wanted to become a female weapon king like Luo Hongchen. Fortunately, she has some spiritual roots and can still cultivate, otherwise she can't even carry the hammer, how can she say that the king of weapons? But then again, isn't Miss Sun also able to refine weapons? I'll let her do what she likes. Yesterday, I heard her say that she admired the young master of Tian'en very much, and when I saw the second master today, I mentioned it by the way, so that young people can communicate more. Oh, by the way, if the second brother is okay tomorrow, let's go to visit the Sun clan together, okay? ”

Listening to Qin Jiangshan's meaning, he actually deliberately rubbed Qin Ziqin and Sun Tianen, Sun Chongshan was a little stunned, and quickly regained his smile.

......

Su You and Bai Shan came to the gate of the Xiaguang Palace, and saw that there were many guards in the hall, and they saw that their outfits were not guards. While he was wondering, someone appeared from behind the temple. Su You and Bai Shan were shocked, this is Yao Ruian, the fifth prince. The five princes were followed by several stout and imposing guards, including the cloud silkworm. Su You took a deep breath and saluted the Five Princes, Bai Shan also hugged his fists and saw His Royal Highness the Five Princes.

The five princes had the usual smile on their round faces, and their small eyes narrowed into thin slits. Yun Silkworm was indeed expressionless, staring at the two of them, and the other few people seemed to move around at will, coming behind Su You Baishan, faintly blocking their retreat.

The fifth prince's voice was gentle: "Listening to the head of the Yun guard, the Sun clan has produced a few talented young people. This king has always loved talented people, and he is itchy for a while, so he will not be surprised to see you. ”

Su You and Bai Shan remained silent and said, 'Don't dare'.

The Fifth Prince nodded, glanced at Bai Shan and said, "I know that you are Bai Shan, the deputy director of the Ten Thousand Blades Weapon Manufacturing. You and Director Su are already the pillars of the Sun Clan's future, and Wan Jian has been joined by the two of them, how fortunate it is! In the battle of the ring, it turned out that the two were extraordinary in addition to their talents. Director Su was in the Wenhui yesterday again, showing his outstanding literary talent, which made the king very curious, who can cultivate such an outstanding person? ”

He didn't wait for the two of them to answer, and continued: "I have asked, there are no families surnamed Su and surnamed Bai near Golden City and Baiyun Town at all? Don't blame this king for being suspicious, now that the imperial capital is an extraordinary period, my brother is about to become the crown prince. For unidentified persons, the king has the duty to investigate. Otherwise, you two will go to the palace of this king with me, and when this king investigates clearly, he will personally send the two back to the Sun Mansion, how about it? ”
