Some families are happy and some are sad. The Liu family is gloomy and gloomy, while the Fang family is... light and calm, and no changes can be seen.
Needless to say, Fang Qingzhi was calm. No one knew what he was thinking, but Fang Yingwu was still a little happy. The effect this time was better than he imagined, and it was also the first time he participated in a court struggle.
, the commemoration has profound meaning.
But it is a pity that Fang Yingwu, as the driving force behind the scenes, is destined to not be able to stand in the sun this time. No one appreciates his strategy, and there is no suitable person to talk to, so he can only feel depressed in his heart.
Amid the uproar, Fang Qingzhi gradually became one of the protagonists. The memorial he had previously exonerated Liu Cifu was read out and savored carefully, and the meaning between the lines was re-interpreted. In addition to the virtue of not abandoning public service for personal reasons,*
There are two more views in the * world.
First, the second son Liu's actions this time were too shameless and had no lower limit. In order to save a few money, the dignified son of the second auxiliary university of the imperial court bullied and semi-occupied the ** family. It was really the same as kicking in the widow's door.
Juehufen is also without character.
Telling it out will be very detrimental to the dignity of the court, and let the people know that it is all a big joke. Even if it is more serious, where will your majesty's face be?
Fang Qingzhi must have been well aware of the inside story at the time, but he would rather his son take the blame than continue to pursue the case. It was really commendable that he took the overall situation into consideration. He was just trying to help the court cover up some dignity and prevent the scandal of Second Young Master Liu from spreading.
Secondly, in the capital, it is recognized that most of the children of lawless powerful people come from the families of honorary relatives, and the children of civil servants and ministers have always had a good reputation. This is often one of the reasons why civil servants attack their honorary relatives.
But Liu Cifu made such a big joke, and his relatives were watching the fun, and the civil servants didn't look good. Fang Qingzhi's original intention before was probably to cover up the ugliness of the civil servants.
No matter what kind of speculation it is, the evaluation of a person who is self-denial, devoted to public service, and has the overall situation in mind cannot go away. Everyone said: "Fang Bianxiu has the mind of a prime minister."
As for the noise in the video, it can be ignored as it is not mainstream. All in all, Fang Yingwu felt that he was one step closer to his ideal goal.
But on this day, Fang Yingwu heard the report that his father had returned home from the court, so he went to the study to meet him, and introduced himself: "The heat is almost over, son, I will come again to give you some advice on your father's last memorial."
Fang Qingzhi held a note and handed it to his son, "If someone else sent it, you should first give me some advice as a father on how to respond."
After Fang Yingwu took it, he first looked at the signature (this was his habit) and saw that it was "Liu, the great scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion".
Fang Yingwu secretly muttered a few words, what the hell is Liu Mianmian doing? If you have something to say, send someone to pass it on. If you have something serious, you can write a formal letter. Why do you write such a nondescript note?
Isn't this what women like to do?
After unfolding it, it read: "I heard that you have a beautiful Qilin son, who is talented, handsome, and graceful. I am very attracted to her. If you have a girl with a hairpin, I would like to ask Yue Lao Hongxian. You are simple and elegant, and you will not disappoint me.
But I am excited and sighing. If there is good news, I can do it regularly before the examination."
Fang Yingwu was speechless. The few words seemed simple, but the meaning was not simple.
As a bachelor of Liu Mianhua's cabinet, he directly asked whether he could get married without going through an intermediary or making any secrets. He left no room for maneuver. With Liu Mianhua's character, this kind of behavior was very rare.
In other words, this is not actually a question. Liu Mianhua wants only one answer, which is to agree. With Liu Mianhua's resolute attitude, if he refuses or hesitates even a little bit, he will offend others.
When did Liu Mianmian act so domineeringly? Fang Yingwu was secretly surprised. He did not object to getting married to the Liu family, but the timing needed to be cautious.
Liu Mianhua has Liu Mianhua's considerations, and he also has his own considerations. At this time, his father has just gained a new reputation and is in the hot spot of politics. If he rashly marries Liu Ji, who has an average reputation and is in a high position, I'm afraid that
It does more harm than good.
If something bad comes out, such as the Fang family seeking fame in exchange for wealth, wouldn't all the hard work and planning of Fang Yingwu be wasted?
What makes Fang Yingwu even more surprised is that with Liu Mianhua's shrewdness, he shouldn't have failed to see this? Why did he suddenly come to force the marriage without any idea?
In fact, Liu Ji sent this note not only because of the complete approval of Ying Wu, but also because he had some anxiety about continuing to delay the ambiguous marriage.
The triennial examination will be held in a few days. Judging from the current situation, if Fang Yingwu really wins the Jinshi after the examination, he will definitely be a very popular candidate for son-in-law.
A single boy who was awarded Jinshi at the age of 19. He was talented, good-looking and well-established. His father was a popular and promising Hanlin scholar. He could be called the perfect son-in-law. Who wouldn't want him?
Nowadays, we are not in the Tang and Song Dynasties. It is not an exaggeration to describe those who are still unmarried young people as Jinshi. It is very rare. If one really appears, then it is estimated that all the demons and monsters will come out from all over the world. I don’t know what will happen.
, he, University Scholar Liu, may not be sure that he will be able to grab it.
Therefore, Liu Ji wants to settle the matter completely now, and other considerations will be secondary, even if now is not the best time to propose marriage. No matter how good the gift is, it is of no use if it cannot be snatched.
"Who sent this note?" Fang Yingwu asked.
Fang Qingzhi replied: "A steward of the Liu Mansion is drinking tea in the front hall."
Then Fang Yingwu asked his family to call the manager of the Liu family, "Go back and tell your master that our Fang family already knows what he wants, and we will give you a reply in the next few days."
The steward made a grimace and said, "Mr. Fang doesn't know something. My master has said that you must give me an answer today. If I don't get a reply from Mr. Fang or Mr. Fang, I don't have to go back."
Fang Yingwu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What kind of style does Liu Mianmian have? Why did he become so anxious after not seeing each other for a few days? After thinking about it, he said half-complainingly: "What if I say that I really can't answer right now?"
"Then my master also said that he knows that your current... in your words is called a dream. But whether your dream can come true depends on your thoughts. By the way, this is not what you mean.
Something you can try."
How could he see it? Is this a threat? Fang Yingwu didn't believe that Liu Mianhua could really see his purpose. This purpose was so hidden that no one could see it!
He pretended to be disdainful and said: "What a joke, apart from scientific examinations, what other dreams can I have now? Why don't I know?"
"My master also said that it doesn't matter if you don't admit it, it means you have a guilty conscience."
Fang Yingwu couldn't help it anymore and asked again: "What else did your master say?"
"Oh, my master also said that if you feel guilty, you will definitely come to the Liu Mansion in person."
Fang Yingwu was inexplicably furious, "I just won't go today!"
"Master Fang, do you mean tomorrow? My master said, no later than tomorrow." (To be continued.)
