Chapter six hundred and sixty second everything is agreed
Scholar Qin made an appearance, and the Nanjing literary world, which had been in chaos for a long time, was suddenly calmed down. This is the role of the Dinghai Shenzhen.
Academician Qin also designated Mr. Gu to continue to be the leader of the alliance, so there will be no "dissidents" in the Nanjing literary world from now on.
Qin Dewei's operation aroused widespread speculation among Shilin.
Most people can conclude from this that after Mr. Gu Dongqiao returns to his roots, he can finally retire comfortably in Nanjing.
Without this level of relationship easing, Gu Dongqiao would have been afraid of being surrounded by enemies on all sides when he returned to Nanjing after serving as governor for three years and retired, and it would be difficult to live a peaceful life.
Are matters in the literary world important? Of course they are. In this era, the literary world is the largest public opinion forum. If you control the literary world, you will control public opinion.
This is real power, otherwise Wang Fengyuan, He Liangjun, and Gao Changjiang would not be fighting for it.
But compared with Bachelor Qin, the literary world seemed unimportant. The Qin Mansion immediately became the busiest place in Nanjing, and people who thought they had enough status came here to submit posts one after another to ask for an audience.
Academician Qin said that he returned to Nanjing to fulfill his filial piety to his uncle and did not want to be disturbed, so he usually did not see guests except those with whom he was particularly close or with a relatively high status.
Therefore, in Nanjing, whoever can see Academician Qin has become the most bragging thing in the near future. Even if you can't see Academician Qin himself, you can sit in the front hall of Qin Mansion and brag about it.
Today is the day when the county school holds its monthly lecture gathering. Jiao Wenjie came to the county school as usual.
For many old students, asking for leave and being absent are commonplace, but freshmen like Jiao Wenjie are still relatively honest.
But this time when the worried Jiao Xiucai came to the county school, he immediately became the center of attention and was surrounded by a bunch of people chatting. Even the top student Gao Changjiang did not have as many people around him as there were with Jiao Xiucai.
Jiao Xiucai knew this well, not because he suddenly became handsome, but because Qin Xueshi said the words "prospective brother-in-law" in public.
Several people who went to school at the same time as Jiao Xiucai and were familiar with each other enthusiastically said to Jiao Xiucai: "I am sure you will visit the Qin Mansion. Can you lead us into the Qin Mansion?"
Jiao Xiucai really couldn't shirk it, so he had no choice but to agree. He was originally going to the Qin Mansion to ask for an audience and ask whether the words "prospective brother-in-law" counted or not.
After the county school was dismissed, Jiao Wenjie went to the Qin Mansion to submit a post, and several classmates from the county school followed him.
When they saw the crowds coming and going outside the gate of the Qin Mansion, they had a more intuitive understanding of Scholar Qin's influence, and Jiao Xiucai's desire to marry the Qin Mansion became even stronger.
It’s not that it’s utilitarian, but who wouldn’t want to move up if given the opportunity?
After Jiao Xiucai's post was sent in, it fell into the hands of the second old man Qin Xiang. Then the second old man sent a message and said: "I said everything I should have said last time. It disappeared today. I will talk about it in a few days."
After being rejected, Jiao Xiucai could only return home in dismay, and the attitude of several county school classmates became cold, which made the eighteen-year-old Jiao Xiucai face to face what "society" meant.
But for a moment, he couldn't figure out what the second old man meant. He just disappeared when he didn't see him. Why did he leave a chance to talk for a few days?
Then Jiao Xiucai began to worry about gains and losses. Could it be that the words "quasi-brother-in-law" didn't count?
In the Qin Mansion, Qin Xiang complained to Qin Dewei: "Didn't you say that Jiao Sheng's performance was not bad, why did you deliberately neglect him?"
While teasing his son, Qin Dewei replied: "Just because he performed well, I want to test him more and more to squeeze out his potential as much as possible."
Qin Xiang couldn't help but complain: "If others don't perform well, you can't get past you. But if they perform well, you have to torment others. No wonder I often hear others say that you are difficult to take care of!"
Qin Dewei said firmly: "Uncle, have you never thought that I can't live in Nanjing for a long time, and Da Lang is young. Does the Qin family need someone who can hold up the door now? It depends on whether Jiao Sheng has this talent.
Already."
Qin Xiang could only say helplessly: "It's hard to find a suitable son-in-law, don't scare people away!"
Qin Dewei smiled and said: "If you don't have this kind of resilience, you don't need such a person!"
Jiao Wenjie returned home, tossed and turned, thinking hard about what he should do. He felt that he still needed an opportunity, but he couldn't figure out where it was for a while.
It wasn't until the next day that Jiao Wenjie walked out of the house and headed towards the Gu Mansion under the Phoenix Tower. It was none other than Gu Lin and Gu Dongqiao's Gu Mansion.
At this time, Gu Lin was practicing calligraphy. When she saw Jiao Wenjie's name card, she originally refused it intentionally.
With his position as Gu Lin, although he always seems to be embarrassed by Qin Dewei, he is not accessible to just anyone.
Not to mention that a junior like Jiao Wenjie, especially the day before yesterday, had contradicted him in public, almost making him unable to get off the stage.
However, the servant who reported the news sent a message: "Jiao Wenjie said that he came here specifically to alleviate your worries, sir."
Gu Dongqiao sneered: "What worries can I have? But I just want to hear how alarmist he can be!"
Later, Jiao Wenjie was taken to the study room of the Gu Mansion. Gu Lin did not arrange tea or tea, but directly asked: "What's wrong with me?"
Jiao Wenjie said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Wan Sheng probably can't explain clearly what the old man is worried about, but Wan Sheng knows how to make the old man feel at ease."
Gu Lin pretended to laugh a few times: "Then why don't you tell me?"
Jiao Xiucai then replied: "Senior, as the leader of Nanjing's literary circle, he is not suitable to live in Nanjing for the time being because he has a royal mandate.
Therefore, the New Jinling Poetry Society also needs another host so that when the seniors are away, someone can communicate with them."
Gu Lin said without interest: "What can we do next?"
Jiao Xiucai said in a loud voice: "Then the senior can appoint me to be the host! I believe that only if I am the host, the senior can completely feel at ease!"
Gu Lin: ""
When a wise person speaks, he doesn't need too much explanation, and everyone understands.
After thinking about it carefully, Alliance Leader Gu had to admit that the other party was right.
What makes him most uneasy is that he has been tricked too much by Qin Dewei. He has really been afraid of the rope for ten years. He doesn't know if Qin Dewei is tricking him again this time. There is a serious lack of mutual trust foundation.
But if you nominate Jiao Wenjie, the prospective son-in-law of the Qin family, as the host, you can greatly increase the level of mutual trust, and you can really feel more at ease.
Gu Lin can even "help the horse to give him a ride" and support Jiao Xiucai to continue his advancement. Is it possible that Qin Dewei can also trick his brother-in-law?
A few days later, the New Jinling Poetry Society meeting was held. At the meeting, the old leader Gu proposed in public that Jiao Wenjie should be the chairman of the poetry club.
Seeing the stunned expressions of Wang Fengyuan, He Liangjun, Gao Changjiang and others who dared not speak in anger, Old Alliance Leader Gu suddenly found it really interesting.
This is called nepotism! If you have the ability, go and criticize Qin Dewei, the mastermind behind the scenes, otherwise you will have to hold back if you don't accept it!
After the conference ended, Jiao Wenjie ignored the social activities and quickly ran to the Qin Mansion and said to the disciples of the Qin Mansion: "Jiao Wenjie, a student member of the county and the director of the New Jinling Poetry Society, wants to see the second old master!"
Then he added: "The second old lady personally promised that as long as I became the host of the New Jinling Poetry Club, I would get married. Now that I have reached the conditions, I came here to tell the good news to the second old lady!"
This is what Jiao Wenjie thought of a few days ago, an opportunity to visit the Qin Mansion again!
Sure enough, he was led in smoothly this time. Jiao Xiucai's heart almost exploded with joy. It seemed that he had guessed well.
What made Jiao Xiucai even more excited was that he did not stop in the front hall, but was taken directly to the east study room in the atrium.
When the servant went in to report, Jiao Xiucai, who was outside the study door, peeked inside and found that there was no second old master in the study, but Qin Dewei was the only one in the master's house. There were a few guests nearby, whose identities were unknown.
When Jiao Xiucai entered, Qin Dewei ordered: "You wait until I finish meeting the guests."
Then he briefly introduced the guests to Jiao Wenjie: "This is Mr. Xu Wei, and this is Mr. Xu, the commander who stayed on the right guard."
Although Jiao Wenjie was mentally prepared, he was still secretly frightened.
Duke Xu Wei was the Duke of Wei, Xu Pengju. The man with the highest honor in Nanjing actually took the initiative to pay a visit!
A young scholar who was born in a poor family got his first glimpse of a corner of the high-end social circle.
Qin Dewei ignored Jiao Wenjie's psychological activities and asked Mr. Xu, "Why didn't Xu Shian come over?"
Others may want to talk about superiority and inferiority, but Xu Shian and Qin Dewei are brothers, and the relationship of superiority and inferiority does not apply at all. It is strange that Xu Laosan did not come to meet each other.
Commander Xu sighed: "You are a god in the sky now, and he is just a little Qianhu who can only eat and wait to die. He is too far away from you, so he feels ashamed and is unwilling to come."
Qin Dewei frowned and said: "How can brothers be so open-minded? Am I the kind of person who doesn't miss old relationships?"
Commander Xu smiled bitterly and said: "I don't blame you, he still has his own inner demons and can't think about it."
After Qin Dewei thought for a while, he said: "This shows that he has the idea of not being willing to accept the status quo, and he is angry again, which may be a good thing!
You go back and tell him that from now on you can practice martial arts and read books, and in a few years you may have the opportunity to build a successful career with me and become your wife!"
Neither Xu Wei Gong nor Commander Xu understood: "Nanjing City has been at peace for a long time, so how can there be any chance to make achievements? Moreover, there is no reason to transfer the officers and soldiers of the Nanjing Guard Station to Jiubian."
Qin Dewei revealed some secrets and hinted: "The disease originated from the southeast sea, so it is better to prepare for a rainy day."
Anyone who knows the history of the Jiajing Dynasty can guess that Qin Dewei was alluding to "Japanese pirates".
In fact, the Japanese pirate rebellion had already laid hidden dangers since the early Jiajing period when trade with Japan was cut off to punish Japanese envoys.
In most people's minds, Japanese pirates seem to have happened thirty years after Jiajing, and then there was the story of Yu Long and Qi Hu.
In fact, this is not the case. Since the Jiajing period more than 20 years ago, there have been batches of Japanese pirates with mixed ingredients. It is only a few years ago.
As a time traveler, Qin Dewei certainly would not wait until thirty years after Jiajing, when the Japanese pirates reached their peak, before taking action.
If the problem can be solved at a relatively low cost in the early stage, why delay it until the later stage? Moreover, the Japanese pirates issue also involves overseas trade policy issues, and Qin Dewei is very interested in getting involved in these matters.
If we could concentrate on solving the maritime troubles in the 1920s of Jiajing, we would be able to deal with the northern barbarians who had also reached their peak in the 1930s of Jiajing much more calmly.
First the south and then the north, this is Qin Dewei's general plan for future practice. In this way, there will be no situation where the southern Japanese and northern captives have a pot of porridge, and the ministers and official schools are exhausted.
That's why Qin Dewei asked Xu Laosan to practice martial arts and learn the art of war in preparation for his use in a few years.
After seeing off Wei Guogong and the old conductor, Jiao Wenjie accompanied Bachelor Qin again and met several guests.
It only took Jiao Wenjie half a day to go from excitement to numbness. He wondered if all the big shots in Nanjing would come to the Qin Mansion?
Moreover, he had never discovered that these big shots had an amiable side. They chatted with him, Jiao Xiucai, very enthusiastically, which flattered him.
After seeing off the last wave of guests this morning, Qin Dewei rubbed his forehead and asked Xiucai Jiao: "What do you think?"
Jiao Xiucai was sincerely grateful and said: "I am very surprised to be able to meet so many senior friends. It's like I'm in a dream."
Qin Dewei reminded: "It's me who knows those people, not you. You'd better be more awake and don't think that just a few words will become your network. There is a big difference."
Jiao Wenjie: ""
Then Qin Dewei led Jiao Wenjie to find his uncle Qin Xiang and had lunch together.
During the dinner, Qin Xiang talked about Dalang again and said without any doubt: "No matter what, Dalang must stay in Nanjing! Otherwise, you can tear down my old bones!"
Qin Dewei had no choice but to agree: "Since uncle can't live without Dalang, then just listen to uncle."
Qin Xiang said happily: "Then take advantage of the opportunity you have in Nanjing to quickly confirm the candidate for the museum master."
The so-called tutor is a tutor at home, and teaching in other people's homes is called sitting in the tutor's house.
Then Qin Xiang looked at Jiao Wenjie, who was sitting at the dinner table for the first time: "Maybe Jiao Sheng?"
Qin Dewei rejected it unceremoniously: "He can't do it!"
Jiao Wenjie did not dare to interrupt, so he could only lower his head and work. Since Mr. Qin thinks that Jiao Xiucai cannot teach a five-year-old child, then just pretend that he has no such ability.
Then I heard Qin Dewei explain: "It is best to use out-of-town masters to achieve balance and allow Dalang to get in touch with more people from other levels."
Qin Xiang was too lazy to think about it. It was enough to have his nephew to worry about.
Qin Dewei said again: "I will visit Nanjing Minister Zhan of the Ministry of Rites tomorrow and ask the great uncle to come out!"
When Jiao Wenjie heard this, he suddenly raised his head, and his outlook was shocked again.
Zhan Ruoshui and Zhan Shangshu are the only remaining academic masters in recent years. You, Bachelor Qin, invite you to teach a five-year-old child. Are you, Bachelor Qin, too crazy, or is Master Zhan too stupid?
Qin Dewei said in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"
Jiao Wenjie sighed: "I just think it's too wasteful. I might as well let Zhan Shangshu teach me."
Qin Xiang also felt that it was too inappropriate, and kept saying: "I can't do it, I can't do it, how can I let Shangshu come to be Dalang's master? It's too bad for Dalang!"
In fact, Shangshu Zhan also has disciples, so you can invite him to sit in the palace. Someone named Li Chunfang came to visit me at home. I think this person is quite good, and his status is suitable for him to be a palace master."
Qin Dewei was speechless. Uncle, you are really discerning. You dislike the fact that the minister is too big, but you change your mind and want to find someone with the fortune of being the chief minister in history?
At this time, Li Chunfang was obsessed with learning. He heard that after the academic master Zhan Ruoshui was transferred to Nanjing, he came over to study with him last year. He has been in Nanjing ever since.
Qin Dewei thought for a while and felt that it was indeed appropriate for Li Chunfang to be his son's teacher.
This is an old friend I have known for nearly ten years. He is also from the same hometown as my father. There is no problem in terms of character or reliability.
Now that all major family matters have been basically finalized, Qin's trip to Nanjing has come to an end.
Emperor Jiajing did give him two months, but these two months included time on the road, not two months in Nanjing.
