Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Fertilizer Water Does Not Flow to Outsiders' Fields...
Fang Yingwu withdrew from his father's place and walked to the west courtyard of his house, only to see that Xiang Chengxian had returned from his uncle's place.
At this time, Mr. Xiang no longer had the sullen look on his face that he had before the examination, worrying about the punishment of his elders. He fully demonstrated what it means to be high-spirited and elated.
Fang Yingwu invited Xiang Chengxian into the study, served tea, and discussed: "According to the rules, should there be a same-year banquet after the results are released? How about you and I hosting a Zhejiang Province same-year gathering?"
Xiang Chengxian was very confused, "Didn't you lose a lot of money and feel heartbroken at the banquet the night before the results were released? Why do you have to do it again this time? Do you still have money?"
Fang Yingwu first denied it righteously and said: "Money is something external to the body, how can I feel sad about it?" Then he said: "I got the first place by luck this time. I should take the lead for the elegant gathering of the same year. If I want money,
Do it even if you don’t have money!”
Xiang Chengxian cupped his hands in a virtual salute and said with a smile: "Brother Fang Xian has high aspirations, and I already know it!"
Fang Yingwu asked with lingering fear: "Last time there were so many uninvited people, I really didn't expect it. But this time it is the banquet of the same year of Jinke. People who are not on the list must be too embarrassed to join in the fun. The number will definitely not be
Is it going to increase dramatically during the second time?”
Xiang Chengxian thought for a moment and said, "About 40 people from Zhejiang Province are on the list this time, and the number of people present will definitely not exceed this number."
Fang Yingwu's plan certainly didn't end there. "Not only do I want to convene the same year, but I also intend to invite officials from the same province in Beijing to participate. I think you will be very happy to do so."
"This is a good idea! But...do you have that much money?" Xiang Chengxian questioned again.
Fang Yingwu gritted his teeth, "The only way is to make a fool of yourself! I have to trouble Brother Xiang to help me again!"
The two of them had reached an agreement and went their separate ways. Xiang Chengxian went to the Chengdong Guild Hall area to count names and identify restaurants, while Fang Yingwu went to his father to inquire about the list of Zhejiang officials in the imperial court. His father had been hanging out in the capital for several years.
Again, people are in the center, so they should be more or less aware of it.
Faced with his son's inquiry, Fang Qingzhi let out a long sigh and said with great emotion: "Since the early years of Chenghua, Lu Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, Yao Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Zou Shangshu, and Shang Xianggong of the Cabinet have successively served. Nowadays, some of the princes in Zhejiang Province have been idle.
There is no one in high position in the court."
Fang Yingwu rolled his eyes, "Father, what are you feeling sorry for? As the saying goes, times make heroes, this is your chance. Otherwise, you, a Hanlin editor, want to covet the position of the leader of the scholarly community in this province, which would be ridiculous and generous!
"
Fang Qingzhi glared and said, "Don't talk nonsense! Fame and wealth are all in vain. When did my father ever covet the position of a scholar leader? But you are at home every day, fearing that the world will not be in chaos and fanning the flames!"
Fang Yingwu raised his hand and said: "I just want to help my father in his determination! Let's talk about this year's banquet first! Please give me your father's advice. Which adults should be invited?"
"In the inner court, there are people from Zhejiang Province including Senior Scholars Yang Shou, Senior Chen Yang, Senior Wang Xianwang, Senior Minister Shang Liangchen, and Senior Zuo Shuzi Xie."
Fang Yingwu interrupted his father, "If the banquet is held, my son, I will invite everyone there, and I will not invite Xie Qian to the party."
Fang Qingzhi paused. He wanted to give some words of advice but then closed his mouth. He knew that his son had very strong ideas, and his father's advice would definitely be in vain.
So he had no choice but to continue the introduction: "In the outer court, the one with the highest status currently is Mr. Tu Jitu, the censor of Youqiandu. The ones who are just a little behind are Mr. Yang Maoyuan, the doctor of the Ministry of punishment, Mr. Hong, the minister of Yuanwailang. Hong Tingchen, Mr. Xiang, the uncle of Xiang Chengxian.
You can also invite me if you are in Beijing."
Fang Yingwu listened and took notes with paper.
After Fang Qingzhi read his son's notes, he introduced another person: "In addition, there is Jiang Ligang, the young minister of Taipu Temple. Mr. Jiang is also from Zhejiang Province. Although this person has an ordinary career, he is a master of calligraphy and painting in this dynasty and is recognized as a calligrapher."
First."
"This person should be invited!" Fang Yingwu wrote it down again, and then looked at the list and said with satisfaction: "If I can invite him, this gathering can be said to be a gathering of talents from the whole province, a gathering of talented people!"
Fang Qingzhi looked at his son and hesitated to speak. Fang Yingwu noticed that his father seemed to have something to say, so he took the initiative to ask: "Father, do you have any other instructions?"
Fang Qingzhi waved his hands melancholy and said: "No more." Fang Yingwu said goodbye again and exited his father's study.
He returned to his room. He studied the list carefully and was filled with regret. Although Zhejiang Province is a major imperial examination province along with Nanzhili, Jiangxi and Fujian, it is really in decline at present. On this list
It turned out that I couldn't even find anyone above the rank of minister. It was truly a rock bottom period.
But that’s okay. Since these officials are not high-ranking officials at present, they won’t be too arrogant. They should not refuse to participate in the rally for the backward people in the same province, let alone refuse the gathering initiated by myself, the most dignified member of the society!
In this way, I can claim that I have the ability to bring together all the celebrities in Beijing and Zhejiang provinces. Regardless of the quality, if word spreads, this is fame!
By then, all scholars in Zhejiang will know that when Mr. Fang ascends to the top and shouts, everyone will lose face! Fang Yingwu smiled foolishly as he fantasized about his rapidly expanding fame.
Today, it was Miss Wang Yu's turn to go to bed. She stripped naked and waited under the quilt. However, she saw that her husband did not go to bed, but only read the list under the lamp.
.
She stood up and put on her clothes, looked over for a few times, and burst out laughing, "Husband, you are so confused." Fang Yingwu raised his eyes, "What do you know about women?"
Mrs. Wang pointed to the list, "My husband also said that we would catch all the celebrities in the capital and province. Didn't you find that one person was missing?"
"Are you talking about Xie Qian and Xie Zhuangyuan? You can think of it, why can't I think of it? Why invite him? If you don't invite him, you will create a situation that excludes him. Women have long hair and short knowledge. Don't interrupt if you don't understand politics.
.”
Mrs. Wang pinched Fang Yingwu in dissatisfaction, "I just want to ask you, where did you put your father-in-law?"
"Uh, um..." Fang Yingwu was speechless. When it comes to celebrities in this province, his father is definitely one of them. No wonder he always feels that something is missing. It turns out that his father has been left out...
.Darkness under the lamp, this is darkness under the lamp.
It's no wonder that my father was hesitant to speak just now, and he was so melancholy on his face that he was holding back his words and was embarrassed to say them.
Please or not? Fang Yingwu struggled for a long time and finally had to add his father.
It can be imagined that the father is the guide for the son, and the father has to suppress his son. Therefore, as long as Huiyuan's father comes to the scene, Huiyuan's reputation and master status will definitely be given to Huiyuan's father. Originally, everyone was touting "Fang Ying"
"Things are so powerful" will probably become "Fang Qingzhi has a good son".
Fang Yingwu sighed. He had really neglected this point before. Such a hard work was almost equivalent to building momentum for his father. Fortunately, it can only be said that the wealth does not go to outsiders... If you like this work
