Chapter 951 Wutai

Wang Ying was upset: "I went to Liangzhe Road just to follow Dabo's wishes. Who knew... Who knew that the first person who came out was Ning Haijun Jiedushi. He was the same as Su Youpinfu. He made a small mistake.

Admit it, I was caught at a disadvantage..."

Shu Yu still felt strange: "When did you arrive in Hangzhou? Did Su Mingrun leave early and you met on the way?"

If this is really the case, Su You must leave his office early. If this can be verified, it will also be a crime.

Wang Yingshi said: "We arrived in Hangzhou on the second day of September, and the city's shipping fleet arrived early on the third day of September. Then Su You picked up the Tai Zhao, set off at that time, and arrived in the capital today."

He Zhengchen was shocked: "How can it be so fast? Can you fly?"

Wang Ying felt bitter and was still frightened when he thought of this voyage: "Sitong Company has a fast boat, and the boat is as fast as flying on the water. After entering the sea, the little boy became seasick and suffered from vomiting for two days and two nights.

Later, I fell into a drowsy state, and when the ship docked, I realized... that we had arrived in Sizhou!"

There were gasps of air in the hall, this is truly a rapid development!

Li Ding was still complaining: "You are making it difficult for us, why don't you delay it for a while?"

Wang Ying was about to burst into tears: "I also begged Bachelor Su, saying that if I continue like this, my life will be lost... But, but..."

"But what?"

"But Xiao Su Shaobao took out the notice and said that the censor's notice clearly stated that he was asked to enter Beijing as soon as possible. That was the central government's intention and he did not dare to... delay."

"You! You are always incompetent and timid!" Li Ding became angry again.

Shu Dan quickly stopped: "Old Wang has had a hard time on this business trip. Seeing that his face is still haggard now, you have to blame him again, senior."

After saying that, he turned to Wang Ying and said: "Go and collect the official envoy money. I will give you half a month's leave to recuperate well, and then I will come back slowly to take care of my business."

Wang Ying thanked him profusely, but in his heart he yelled at his father and mother.

Shu Tan then said: "The problem now is how to get rid of Su You..."

He Zhengchen said: "Why don't you let him go back first?"

Shu Dan smiled bitterly and said: "Jun Biao, don't think about it. In Xu's hands, the scholar Xiao Su still holds the book summons from under the censor's stage. Now that he has arrived, are you asking him to go back? I'm afraid we are guilty of deceiving an important minister."

No one can afford it..."

He Zhengchen shook his head: "The previous pursuit was too harsh..."

Although He Zhengchen was the first to impeach Su Shi, he actually had a favorable impression of Su You.

Because he was also born as a child prodigy. In the eighth year of Qingli, he took the Tongzi Examination at the age of eight. He recited the Nine Sutras in front of the emperor and was granted a child prodigy by Renzong.

In the second year of Zhiping, at the age of twenty-five, he took the Yiji Boy's Examination and ranked first. He was awarded the title of Officer, General, Shilang, and was appointed as the chief registrar of Hukou County.

The following year, he went to the Bingwu Township Examination and ranked among the top five. He passed the Caokui Juren Examination and was appointed as Jiangdong Transportation Department.

A year later, he took the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination.

Although the people of the Song Dynasty highly praised child prodigies, there were only very few prodigies who rose to prominence in the court.

Over the years, only one Fu Biguan was famous, and Yang Yi was outstanding in literature, but it was a pity that he died too early.

Therefore, scholars with child prodigy backgrounds are generally not very proud after entering officialdom.

But Su You was an exception. In He Zhengchen's mind, Su You's achievements were actually on par with those of the wealthy Xianggong, but one was in the court and the other was outside.

Moreover, he also had the same background as Su You, that is, he was both valued by Renzong. When he returned to his hometown during the Jiayou period, Emperor Renzong once wrote a poem to him called "The Song of the Return of the Prodigy He Zhengchen" to him.

Later, Wang Anshi also wrote poems as gifts. Therefore, although he impeached Su Shi because he was disgusted with Su Shi's slander of the new law, it did not mean that he also supported involving Su You.

He Zhengchen sighed and said: "In short, I don't agree with the search of Ke Zhentang. Also, we can't let Mr. Su stay in the outer hall for a long time. No matter what, the scene must be acceptable."

Li Ding really wanted to use this opportunity to kill Su Shi, so he would definitely crack down on Su You. Hearing this, he stood up and said: "In the position of censor, impeachment does not avoid the powerful. This is why the imperial court and your majesty put us in this position." That's what you came for."

"That Su You has always been hypocritical and hypocritical. I don't believe that he is really a sage. If you don't go, I will!"

Shu Dan stood up and said: "We all advance and retreat together. Even if we can't move to Suyou, we still have a reputation of not fearing the power. If we are on both ends, it is a big mistake. Now the momentum is like riding a tiger with an arrow on the string. I have to send it."

He Zhengchen was really afraid that Li Ding would cause chaos in Kezhentang and trigger the anger of the scholars, so he had to stand up and said: "If you really want to inspect Kezhentang, then I will go. You two go and ask Scholar Su yourself, what do you think?" ?”

However, Li Ding thought that He Zhengchen was timid and fearful of trouble, and sneered: "That's fine, but if there is any relevant text, it must not be hidden, otherwise it will happen later..."

He Zhengchen was cursing secretly in his heart, but on the surface he wanted to maintain the unity of the censor's office: "The censor's responsibilities are not subject to the instructions of Zhongcheng."

Shu Dan urged: "Then everyone hurry up. It has been delayed for too long. If you fall in the eyes of others, you are afraid of him. After Su You, you must hurry up and report the case to the palace to report to His Majesty. Now Su Song and Su Shi have pleaded guilty. As long as the case is solid, we are not afraid of anyone."

The three of them hurriedly agreed not to mention that He Zhengchen went to Kezhentang on horseback, but that Li Ding and Shu Dan had discussed it and felt that Old Su Dasu had already given his confession, so there was no need to be polite to Su You.

Just as it was written in the previous document, it will be investigated and interrogated as a case.

So when Su You entered Beiyu, Li Ding and Shu Yu were already sitting upright, as if they were investigating a case.

Su You smiled slightly and stood at the door but did not go in. Instead, he handed over his hands: "You two, are you recruiting Su You to come and cooperate with the questioning? Or has a case been formally opened to investigate me, Su You?"

Li Ding didn't expect that Su You would even pick up on this, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before he remembered that Su Mingrun was a refined and pure old man who lived up to his reputation: "This... it's just an investigation and questioning at the moment, but you are very suspicious, so we have to be more formal. .”

Su You nodded: "That's good. It's better for everyone to be more formal."

After saying that, he entered the hall and sat down on the chair opposite the two of them: "In order to answer Wutai's call, I was on my way at night, so I didn't waste the time of all the censors, right?"

There was no time to waste. Li Ding and Shu Yu felt like they were holding their noses and unable to sneeze. Shu Yu said: "Bachelors don't have to be like this..."

"No!" Su You said, "That's not what the document says. Those words make me startled three times a day."

"But let's talk about this later. If you have any questions, just ask. I will fully cooperate with you."

Li Ding coughed and said, "Su Shi's poems and poems complained about the imperial court and slandered the emperor. He is a bachelor with a long reputation and he is his uncle. Why don't you give him more advice on weekdays so that he can be sincere and serve the imperial court and your majesty?" "

Su You was a little embarrassed: "Although I am called uncle-nephew, I have actually given birth to five children, and I was young and orphaned. I was adopted by Meng Mingyun's cousin. My cousin often traveled abroad. Su You's enlightenment in the study of Chinese rhymes, Thanks also to Zizhan."

"In addition to the age difference, my uncle's pedigree cannot be displayed in front of him. I do try to persuade him at ordinary times, but with my third place in the imperial examination, can I compare to my first place in the system?"

"Another point is that slandering the imperial court and slandering the emperor are two different things. As far as I know, there are indeed many poems and essays written by Da Su that slander current affairs. This is also because he saw some things that should not happen. It was something I felt, but I didn’t see what you said about Ruinengjun.”

Li Ding said: "This is not a bachelor's matter. We don't care about it for the time being. Whether there is a scandal or not, it can only be decided by the court. Do you and your uncle and nephew exchange letters on weekdays?"

"Yes." Su You admitted: "Ziyou exchanged letters, but not as many as Zizhan. There was one letter every seven and a half days."

Li Ding asked: "The Su family is famous for its literary excellence. I have read Su Shi's articles. Twenty years ago, he used allusions to write prose. It is irreplaceable. He can be called a genius in the world. His poems and essays are not common among bachelors. Will you stay with me less?"

Su You smiled bitterly and said, "This really doesn't exist."
