Chapter 1696: Once you enter the Hou family, it is as deep as the sea (23)
Lan Ruyun stiffened her neck and looked at what Sister Jin Qing was saying. Why couldn't she understand?
Seeing Lan Ruyun's silly look, Lan Ruyu laughed unkindly. There was no such coincidence in the world. Everything was arranged by thoughtful people.
The entrance to the market is the place with the highest flow of people and the place where news spreads the fastest, but it is not the only way for those high-ranking disciples to pass through on weekdays.
The reason why Wei Rongzu left this way was because Lan Ruyu sent a beggar to deliver an anonymous letter to him this morning.
The content of the letter is that if you want to study, you should go to the market entrance to find the second girl Lan from the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion.
Lan Ruyu was very well informed. In the capital, the person who lived the most miserable life was Wei Rongzu.
Since childhood, his unfortunate aunt has been preventing him from reading and literacy.
I would rather spend a lot of money to let him go out and cause trouble with cats and dogs than spend a few taels of money to hire a private school for him.
On weekdays, I always teach him some messy principles.
If it is said that every high-end family must have a child who has been raised in a mess, it can be used as a reason for the family to reassure the emperor.
Then it is obvious that Wei Rongzu is this unlucky child.
General Dingyuan said that he loved his cousin, but in fact, in his heart, this cousin was just a good-looking thing. Compared with his wife, this love was nothing.
Otherwise, he could have just married his cousin as his first wife, so why would he need to marry another woman?
Therefore, General Dingyuan was satisfied when he saw He doting on his children, and naturally he did not think deeply about He's true intentions.
Wei Rongzu himself mentioned several times that he wanted to have a husband, but those teachers never taught him well. They usually taught him a word for several days, changing the pronunciation every day, and his speech was even more confusing, making him confused.
Wei Rongzu complained to his father because of this, but the gentleman retorted that Wei Rongzu had no intention of studying at all and was not a student.
I changed several gentlemen in a row and it was still the same situation.
Once, Wei Zhanfeng wanted to take a peek at Wei Rongzu's study, but he happened to see Wei Rongzu roaring in class and disrespecting his teacher.
Wei Zhanfeng was so angry that he threw Wei Rongzu out of the study. If He hadn't arrived in time and had a big quarrel with Wei Zhanfeng, Wei Rongzu would have been beaten to pieces by Wei Zhanfeng on the spot.
From that day on, Wei Rongzu sobered up. He knew how deep the He family was and knew that he could never defeat the He family. Before getting married, he could only endure it and stay away from his aunt, and interact with other second-generation ancestors outside every day.
mixed together.
Sure enough, since he failed to learn well, Mrs. He became more assured of him and even gave him the right to withdraw money at will in the accounting room.
However, Mrs. He had to see what she spent. After confirming that Wei Rongzu had spent all the money and not saved it, Mrs. He scolded Wei Rongzu with a few words of anger.
Anyway, these are public money, not her private property. If Wei Rongzu spends too much, Wei Zhanfeng and the other two houses of the General's Mansion will naturally have to worry about it.
Her natal family is rich and has a generous dowry, so all she has to do is take care of raising the man to death.
For so many years, Wei Rongzu can be said to be the most incompetent person in the Dingyuan General Palace, but he is also the one with the richest treasury.
but reputation
It can be said that in the eyes of everyone, his life is considered useless.
The reason why Lan Ruyu noticed Wei Rongzu was because she was good at observing details.
She discovered that whenever Wei Rongzu passed by the door of the bookstore, his voice would be lowered unconsciously and his footsteps would be much softer.
Moreover, whenever he found someone who looked like a scholar passing by, he would stay away from them.
Lan Ruyu wanted to call this feeling like a mouse seeing a cat a feeling of shame.
If someone said that such a person would not want to study, Lan Ruyu would never believe it.
So I sent a note.
That morning, instead of saying that Lan Ruyu was waiting for buyers to knock on the door at the market entrance, it would be better to say that she was waiting for Wei Rongzu to fall into the trap.
As for the matter of the Imperial College, Lan Ruyu also had a rough guess.
A few days ago, Wei Zhanfeng had a big argument with the Minister of Civil Affairs in the private room of the restaurant. She happened to pass by the door of the restaurant that day and clearly heard Wei Zhanfeng shouting from upstairs, "Whether you can seal it or not is my business. It's none of your business."
What's the matter? Eat less carrots and worry less. Just take care of yourself."
Then a wine bottle fell from the bed and almost hit Lan Ruyu's feet.
Apparently two people in the room overturned the table.
Thinking of the rumor in the teahouse that Wei Zhanfeng was about to be knighted, Lan Ruyu immediately connected the two things.
The daughter of the Minister of Civil Affairs married the third son of Duke Zhen Guo. No matter how you think about it, this matter must be related to Duke Zhen Guo.
Once the matter is involved with the Duke of Zhen, it is no longer a trivial matter in Lan Ruyu's heart.
So Lan Ruyu began to pay attention to Wei Zhanfeng's affairs, but she discovered a strange thing, that is, Wei Zhanfeng began to frequently contact people from the Imperial College, sometimes he was happy, sometimes he was downcast.
Wei Zhanfeng's family had one wife, four concubines, four sons, and three daughters.
But none of these sons excelled in reading, especially the second generation ancestor Wei Rongzu. Although he could read, he couldn't even recite a complete set of the Three-Character Classic.
Therefore, Lan Ruyu made a bold guess in her mind.
After selling the things to Wei Rongzu, Lan Ruyu asked Wei Rongzu to call a carriage to take them home.
Since Wei Rongzu's bodyguards were all assigned to him by the He family, before saying goodbye, Lan Ruyu stuffed a few more letters into Wei Rongzu's hand and gave them to him.
Under the guidance of his aunt over the years, Wei Rongzu also recognized a lot of words, and even half-guessed and half-blinded he could understand the meaning on the paper.
Wei Rongzu was secretly shocked that Lan Ruyu had already thought about everything he would experience after returning home.
After seeing the last words in the letter, telling him not to reveal the power of the sword first, and to grit his teeth and induce his father to kick his legs, and then limp back to the room, Wei Rongzu felt like a porcelain fool.
of.
However, thinking of being able to study like a normal person, Wei Rongzu gritted his teeth and did it.
In fact, his father was not harsh on him. He hugged his long sword and dragged his not-so-painful leg back to his room.
Then, as the note said, he asked his mother to find someone to go to the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion to complain about returning the goods.
In fact, the matter of his beating was passed to Jin Qing.
Next, Jin Qing followed the maid who delivered the letter and found his room.
Although Wei Rongzu didn't know how Jin Qing, who was so big, managed to sneak in without being noticed.
But Jin Qing appeared in his room carelessly, and then used his index and middle fingers as swords, pinpointed the bruises where he was kicked by his father, and broke his legs with just one click. Lan
Ruyun stiffened her neck and looked at what Sister Jin Qing was saying. Why couldn't she understand?
Seeing Lan Ruyun's silly look, Lan Ruyu laughed unkindly. There was no such coincidence in the world. Everything was arranged by thoughtful people.
