My own father was the head of the dynasty v. 43
Shen Yu sneered, not ridiculed, but relieved, God pitied, his little son finally looked like a normal baby.
If Huai'an knew what his father was thinking at this time, he would definitely break down and cry: Don't you see that abnormal children are going to be beaten?
Lu Tingyu also saw Shen Yu, put down his book and walked to the door, and saluted Shen Yu: "Master Shen." ”
Shen Yu said: "No need to be polite, I didn't intend to disturb Mr.'s lecture, I just ordered someone to order a table in Huaiyang Building, Mr. stayed for a light meal today?" ”
Huai'an's eyes lit up when he heard the food, and he pulled Lu Huai beside him: "Do you think the lion's head is steamed or braised delicious?" ”
Lu Huai has been a very well-behaved child since he was a child, so that he could concentrate on reading, and at this time, he suddenly switched from the words of the saint in his head to the lion's head, and was stunned for a while before he replied stubbornly: "I think steamed is delicious." ”
Outside the door, Mr. Lu excused himself and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I didn't report to my parents at home in advance, why don't you do it another day?" ”
Since Shen Yu was weak, he has never regarded this kind of entertainment as a big deal, and he has to specifically mention it to inform his parents. Then he said, "I'll send a subordinate to Mr.'s house to say hello." ”
Mr. Lu saw that he couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.
Later, Shen Yu learned from his colleagues that Lu Tingyu was a very filial son, and his parents were the first in everything. The daughter-in-law and the in-laws had a quarrel, he only blindly counted the daughter-in-law, but Lu Huai and his mother ran back to his mother's house in a rage, and the husband and wife had been separated for the second year, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. As for why he decided not to take the temple examination anymore, no one knows, in short, he is a somewhat strange person.
Shen Yu was stunned after hearing this. He doesn't have much interest in other people's family affairs, as long as he teaches Huai'an well, everything has nothing to do with him.
Hanlin officials follow the route of boiling seniority, and as long as they don't make big mistakes, they will be able to take on big responsibilities sooner or later.
He is no longer the young man who was eager to speak out three years ago, and this time he returned to Beijing to face a more complicated court situation, he was cautious in his words and deeds, wise and wise, and had a high-minded attitude towards everything, but he paid attention to the affairs of Zhao Zhixian.
Zhao Chun's recital was drafted by the cabinet vote, and sent back to the local government to order the department to self-examine, and if there is a violation, it should be corrected and self-impeached.
In other words, regarding the problems mentioned by Zhao Chun in the recital, the relevant yamen were ordered to self-examine themselves, and if the problems were really found, they should actively report and expose their own mistakes.
It's also unrealistic to think on your heels, it's just a common way for the Cabinet to deal with similar notes.
But Zhao Chun's move can be regarded as a hornet's nest. Nanzhili and a big man asked the Imperial Shi Luo Heng of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to impeach Zhao Chun in a letter, saying that he was harboring untouchables, fish and meat squires, and disrupting the strategy of preparing for the Japanese.
Shen Yu found Wenxuan Shilang Zhongcheng Chi through the same year of the ministry, hoping that he would mediate.
There are no petty officials in the ministry, don't underestimate the position of the five products in this district, and the fate and future of more than 1,000 counties and prefectures in the country are almost all in his hands.
Cheng Chi admired Zhao Chun's personality and promised to help him as much as possible.
At the same time, Shen Yu wrote an article that completely recorded the process of Anjiang County's encounter with the Japanese unrest, with vivid words, vivid voices, and exciting sounds.
With Shen Yu's status in the literary world, how can such an article not be popular?
Even with Zhao Chun, Luo Heng is also on fire.
One refers to fame, and the other refers to blood pressure.
Legend has it that Wu Qi, the elder of Xiaoge, took that article and rushed into Zheng Qian's duty room angrily and asked him: Why did your good student Shen Yu go against me?
Zheng Qian still smiled gently: "It's understandable that young juniors are chasing fame and fame, where does Xiaoge's anger come from?" ”
The implication is that Shen Yu publicized his anti-Japanese exploits and put gold on his face, what kind of anger are you?
When Wu Ge heard the news, he rushed from his duty room and reprimanded his eldest son: "Wu Qi, don't be rude!" Get out! ”
Wu Qi glared at Zheng Qian angrily and walked away.
……
While Huai'an is scratching his ears and cheeks in the small study, Ronghe's fearless life is also facing unprecedented challenges.
Princess Wenyang's Mansion, Rong He's whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning.
Wen Yangping retreated from the palace, pacing back and forth.
However, he said that after Xiangningbo Liu Chenghuan left the Qi Palace, he did not dare to delay, and immediately found a proper buyer. Looking at the capital, there are only a handful of buyers who have spare money to digest these treasures, either the owners of big pawn shops or the bigwigs in the antique world, and they all have a common characteristic - excellent eyesight. You can see the authenticity and year at a glance, and there are very few times when you hit the eye. Therefore, a very reasonable price was offered.
Everything went well, but there was a timid and fearful lord in it, and under the pretext of going to the money bank to withdraw cash, he went out and reported to Shuntianfu, because he firmly believed that there was something in it that came from Ouchi, and whoever touched it would die.
He was only halfway through his life of peace and wealth, and he didn't want to die yet, so he had to send Liu Chenghuan to the government.
When the messenger of Shuntianfu saw that it was an earl, his head was as big as a bucket at that time, but the objects that were being traded on the scene were really extraordinary, so he had to go back and ask the prefect.
In broad daylight, openly buying and selling the things of Ouchi, of course, the Cao Governor wanted to take him into prison, and submit the file to the Criminal Department, with a copy to the celebrant supervisor.
The celebrant has always attached great importance to the theft of Ouchi's belongings, and immediately sent someone to investigate, and it was easy to find out about King Qi's head.
This is a big problem.
Liu Chenghuan naturally did not dare to confess to King Qi, and insisted that he had stolen the things of the palace, and was transferred to the Criminal Department by Shuntian Mansion for interrogation. For a while, everyone knew that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were waiting for King Qi to express his position, and the emperor heard the news and went out of the customs directly, and sent someone to summon King Qi into the palace.
Rong He had never experienced such a thing, his little face turned pale with fright, that was his own uncle, the only two relatives left by his mother in this world! If he killed his uncle by messing around for a while, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Princess Wenyang thought about it and couldn't think of a good way, so she looked at Rong He with a frown: "What are you still doing here?" If you still want your uncle to live, hurry up and beg your father, only he can withstand it so far. ”
Rong He, who was frightened, woke up instantly, took his companion eunuch and hurriedly left the princess's mansion and got into the sedan chair prepared for him by his aunt.
……
King Qi did not dress up at home at leisure in the past, but changed into a red dragon robe with a regimental collar, wearing a winged crown, a leather jade belt around his waist, and soap boots on his feet.
The princess helped him smooth the folds of his clothes, as if he was about to go out.
Rong He entered the door crying and wiping away tears, and knelt on the ground with a "plop": "Father." ”
When King Qi saw him, he didn't fall up in one breath and forked it on his chest, and sat on the pedal of the bed with his front placket covered.
Pointing at his son for a long time, he gritted his teeth and squeezed two sentences: "You still know to come back, see if you have caused this disaster!" ”
Yes, this is already a madness for His Royal Highness King Qi, who is kind-hearted, and he can't usually say such "heavy" words.
Rong He was so frightened that he burst into tears, and leaned over with his forehead: "The son knows that he is wrong, father." ”
King Qi was so frightened that he cried, his eyes gradually turned from anger to pity, and he repeatedly wondered if he had said too much and hurt the child......
Gonggong Meng had already stepped forward to help Rong He: "The prince of the world will get up first, everything is with His Royal Highness, don't be afraid." ”
Rong He looked at his father, his mother-in-law, and Gonggong Meng with tears in his eyes, and finally saw a crystal clear glass screen in the hall.
The screen looked valuable, but the light was dim that day, and I didn't notice it.
"You, you...... Don't look there! King Qi was really afraid of him, so he came back to his senses and instructed: "Father and king enter the palace to face the saint, you stay in the house with your mother and don't run around." ”
Rong He nodded with tears in his eyes.
King Qi also instructed Gonggong Meng: "You also stay in the mansion and take care of the screen...... Phew, optimistic about the princess and the prince. ”
He was all confused.
Gonggong Meng bowed down, and sent the proper eunuch to accompany him all the way.
Princess Qi sighed: "Don't look at your father's usual silence, I think he doesn't love you, in fact, he hurts you the most." ”
Princess Qi saw it thoroughly.
She is a mother-in-law, and her relationship with Rong He is only harmonious, and she treats it as her own for outsiders, and she doesn't believe it herself. She has just passed, and naturally she will not give up the idea of having a child, but people inside and outside have persuaded her that she must be good to Rong He, and she may have to count on him in the future.
But Princess Qi couldn't convince herself to ask for warmth to a child with a purpose, and she had no intention of taking him with her, so Rong He has been living in Shizisu since the death of her biological mother.
Children who don't have a mother are often reluctant to get close to their fathers. King Qi is not good at expressing love, and Rong He is not used to his cautious style, and there have always been some estrangements between father and son that are difficult to eliminate.
After all, the Qi Mansion is both prosperous and lossy, and the princess hopes that he can be more sensible and understand the difficulties of adults after experiencing this incident.
……
It is normal for the emperor to leave the customs ahead of schedule, and it is normal for him to be unhappy, even in normal times, he has never had a good face towards King Qi.
He seems to be quiet and inactive, but in fact he is very scheming, accustomed to standing behind the scenes to control the court, enjoying the fun of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.
King Qi Su Ri'an kept to himself, tried to maintain the image of an honest son, and tried to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible, also so that when these immortals fought, he would not affect himself.
However, this time, King Qi was unusual.
He told his father in person: the treasury is in deficit, he wants to buy military grain and grass, he wants to pay border salaries, he wants to manage the canals and disaster relief in various places, and he is worried about the fact that his father is in retreat day and night, praying for the blessings of the people, and he is so worried that he can't sleep.
Therefore, he decided to donate 50,000 taels of silver to the household department for relief to the victims to solve the urgent needs of the imperial court.
also claimed: "The minister has been supported by the people of the world for thirty years and three years, and now the court is in a hurry, how dare the minister sit idly by?" ”
Emperor Yongli and King Qi's own fathers almost didn't know him anymore.
I saw the emperor slowly step down from the dragon chair, stopped at a step away from him, and said slowly: "The prince's annual salary is about 10,000 taels of silver?" ”
Just one sentence made King Qi wet with cold sweat. He squeezed one out between his teeth, "Yes." ”
In the empty hall, the emperor's voice seemed to come from the fairy world, with a faint emptiness: "In the past few years, the treasury has been empty, and the treasury of the Great Inner Mansion is not very rich, I rarely give you additional rewards, you have a huge palace, and you can still save 50,000 taels?" ”
"Yes." King Qi said respectfully: "The minister entrusted Xiang Ningbo to sell some items and make them up. ”
The emperor's face was still unchanged, but he looked at him quietly, and only said after a while: "The matter of Xiangningbo has caused a storm in the city, it turned out that you instructed it." ”
King Qi tried his best to stabilize his voice: "Yes, Xiang Ningbo defends the face of his ministers and refuses to identify him in public in the court. ”
The emperor nodded: "Yes, very good." ”
I don't know who I'm talking about. Just returned to the dragon chair again, slightly closed his eyes, as if he was settled.
Wang Quan, the eunuch who was on duty beside him, quietly gestured to King Qi to retreat.
King Qi bowed down and bowed, silently exiting the main hall.
At this time, the cold sweat had soaked all the stickers, and a gust of autumn wind hit, and I shivered coldly. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked up at the white sun, and felt a chill in his heart.
What son in the world is so afraid of his father?
It turns out that the unpopular son is unpopular no matter what he does, and he believes that in the eyes of his father, even his act of donating silver seems stupid and straightforward.
It is also because of his usual "stupidity and straightforwardness" that his father easily believed his lies.
The "dirty things" were returned by Shuntianfu, and the list of Meng Gonggong's photos was checked one by one, and there was no less. It's just that 50,000 taels of silver really gave Princess Qi a headache for a few days, and she made up everything before she could get it together and order the guards to send it to the household department.
At the same time, the Criminal Department closed the case and released Xiang Ningbo from prison.
As soon as Liu Chenghuan stepped out of the gate of the Criminal Department, two eunuchs in civilian clothes immediately greeted him and smiled: "Xiang Ningbo, please come here." ”
It turned out that the carriage of the palace was waiting outside the yamen of the Criminal Department, and Rong He poked out his head and shouted: "Uncle, get on the car!" ”
Liu Cheng happily walked two steps to board the carriage, and King Qi was also in the car, dressed in princely clothes, leaning against the wall of the carriage and reading a book leisurely.
The carriage was not yet the height of an adult, and he did not dare to sit for a while, nor could he stand up straight, so he shouted in a weak heart: "Your Highness." ”
King Qi raised his eyes to look at him, silently rolled the book in his hand into a scroll, and asked with concern: "Have you been beaten inside?" ”
"Nope." Liu Chenghuan belongs to the character of opening a dyeing room with a little color, and immediately said with a hippie smile: "I am a dignified earl, who dares to touch a single hair of my hair." ”
King Qi smiled gently, suddenly turned cold, and smashed the scroll in his hand at him, scolding while smashing: "I don't know what to do!" Mess around with the son! Are you too young when the world is small? What's going on, three long and two short, how to explain to your sister under the lonely nine springs?! ”
