Chapter 319: The Angry Emperor
In Cheng Daqi's eyes, all the families in the city look down on the Fang family, they just feel that the Fang family is rich and wealthy by marrying a daughter, and the Cheng family looks at it from the outside, which is almost the same.
An earl rewarded by the emperor, a petty official who sought to come, and the rest of the grandchildren did not set foot in the court except for Cheng Yousan's errand, but the girls in the mansion married better than the other.
"One is the General's Mansion, the other is the family, and there is a scholarly family, which is the foothold for our Cheng family to use their daughter to stand firm in the eyes of outsiders."
"Now it's just because the emperor relies on us to make money, those people's mouths don't talk nonsense, if one day we lose our hearts in front of the emperor, it is far inferior to the Fang family, how the Fang family says it is also a bit of a background, there are a lot of scholars, and there have been queens."
Cheng Daqian obviously thought of this, and he still lacked confidence.
"Then let the boys selected by each family send them over, let's first invite two gentlemen to teach in the house, and when the teaching is almost done, we will send it to the academy outside, I don't believe that so many boys can't come out, and they will smash a few."
"Big brother, what's wrong with the two, this is the easiest one to come out, and the knot hasn't been untied yet?"
"This looks like it's going to end, do you need to ask the Jiang family for some guidance?"
Cheng Youer is the first scholar among the sons of the two brothers except Cheng Youan, Cheng Youan is still young, and he has to wait for ten years, but Cheng Youer is a person who can produce results just by looking at it, and the whole family has been paying attention to him recently.
Cheng Daqi sighed, "Said that his husband has been giving them questions recently, lecturing on topics, and reading books every day until late at night, and the three boys don't provoke him, so I hope he can be a talent." ”
God is pitiful, their Cheng family doesn't even have a show of talent, there is a humble and virtuous few boys are smart, they are all good at trading, what can be taught once, but they can't study, they doze off as soon as they read, and they feel uncomfortable, but there is only one Cheng Youer, who can barely understand and can read.
"He said that he just took the exam to show talent, and it was not a big problem, so there was no need to trouble the Jiang family, and he would ask for advice when he took the exam next time."
"There is still a month left in this imperial examination, and there are only five days left for the examination."
Although everyone said that it was not difficult to take the Xiucai exam, he was still very nervous.
Cheng Daqian couldn't help laughing, "Just take the test, I've inquired, many people in the city can pass the test, it's not very difficult, don't worry." ”
"Don't do that set of sending the exam, if you don't know, you still think that our family is going to take the top exam."
Cheng Daqi also laughed, "During the exam, just close the door at home and have a meal, we think it's a big thing, outsiders see the joke." ”
"The Fang family is like this beforehand, it still matters the work in hand."
The Cheng family's trade route was dedicated to the emperor, and the emperor was very happy, and he had asked the household department and the military department to organize people to go in person, and the Xiao family's dart bureau would also follow, and after this trip, it would start to be busy again.
The Cheng family brothers began to get busy again, as if the affairs of the Fang family had nothing to do with them, but the news became more and more intense, until the gambling plate opened in the city, and Lord Fang received the news in hindsight, but at this time, the initiator behind the scenes was already untraceable.
"Brother Yuan, you said this."
The last time Lord Fang came to the capital was to report on his work, except for a few domestic servants in the capital, he didn't have his own eyes and ears at all, even if he had arranged it before, he would have been reduced a long time ago, and he was quite passive at the moment.
Yuan Pei didn't expect things to develop like this, "The top priority is to knock out that gambling plate, I heard that the third prince and several princes in the prince's county are all on the gambling board, in addition to the high probability of betting on whom, whether to marry or not to marry, this matter is a big matter, Brother Fang is innocent, but those few will still settle the account on your head." ”
"Please ask the people of the Soldiers and Horses Division to make a move, knock out the gambling plate first, and then talk about other things, you can't let the two princes and a few little princes have been on the gambling plate all day long by the people to analyze and calculate."
Yuan Pei always felt that someone was behind this, this method was really powerful, if it was a little rumor, forget it, one rumor could always be covered up by other rumors, but a gambling plate would not only block the future of the Fang family's girl, but also block the future of the entire Fang family, and help the Fang family to offend the Jingzhong Xungui to death.
Yuan Su had already received the news, but at first he didn't care about it, it was not a day or two for the other family in the city to have opinions on each other, the Fang family was unpopular, and the most important thing was that when the Fang family girl was the queen, she was a little arrogant, and she offended many people, and everyone helped her remember this account.
When Fang Shisan first went to the capital, he was also criticized for a while.
Until the appearance of the gambling board, he guessed that there must be someone behind him, he guessed that it was his quasi-father-in-law, because Xiao Si was really likely to sue, according to the Cheng family's kind of inside, he was angry to the outside, and he wanted to teach the Fang family a lesson and understand.
But he denied this idea again, it was okay to spread the news, but not to open a gamble for a look, and to trample the Fang family into the mud.
Well, who is that person?
Of course, it is not excluded that the simple purpose of opening a gambling market is to make money.
Lord Fang did not follow Yuan Pei's proposal to ask for help from the Soldiers and Horses, but chose to go directly to the palace and cry in front of the emperor, relying on the fact that the emperor also had the blood of the Fang family.
The emperor has been very irritable recently, and after an illness, he feels that he is old, and he is more and more unpleasant to see the prince and the third prince, but fortunately, Cheng Daqi has sent him a new business road, and he is busy arranging people to go again, busy making this business road into the golden business road of Xijin, and he is busy with a series of things such as scientific research, and he is not idle before.
And Lord Fang didn't know that several princes and princes had come before he came to cry, saying that their heirs would not allow the Fang family's daughters to pick and choose, although they said politely, but their words also revealed that the other party's family looked down upon.
The emperor is angry, and now he has to listen to Lord Fang's crying, and of course his temper will not be controlled anymore.
"If you're okay, who's going to hurt you?"
"When you go to the capital with your front foot, you have trouble with your back foot, you should reflect on your body, what have you done all these years?"
"Whose kid did you fancy and invited someone to come to your door to help you say, do you have to pick and choose? Why, none of the children from so many families in the capital can get into your eyes? ”
The Fang family sent the girl to Beijing again, who doesn't know what they are thinking?
That Fang Thirteen was torn between his crown prince and the third prince, and he really didn't know what to say, and his son couldn't be picked by a woman like picking goods.
He can tolerate a Cheng Xiaosi, that is Cheng Xiaosi is blessed, Cheng Daqi has to be used, and it is difficult to find someone who can make money, can a fourth-grade official still be found?
