Chen Yu was also caught off guard by the news that Meng Xiang was seriously ill. Sanlang arrived in Beijing in too much haste, and he could not help at all. Moreover, the news from Xiao Qiyu made it obvious that there was no hope of help.
You must know that the appearance of a country is the pillar of the country!
Therefore, even Chen Yu had to lament his fate.
Su Sanlang arrived in the capital all the way to the capital. It was the night of the New Year's Eve, and he went to Meng's Mansion without even having time to change his clothes. When Meng Xiang saw Su Sanlang, his eyebrows relaxed and he said with anger.
: "Just waiting for you."
Along the way, besides his mother, the person Su Sanlang was most grateful to was his mentor. He knelt in front of the bed and held Meng Xiangsheng's hand: "Teacher, Jia Ci has brought the best Peiyuan Pill in Yaowang Valley."
As he said that, he took out the medicine bottle from his arms and poured out a pill with trembling hands: "Take it. Just take it and you'll be fine."
Meng Xiang shook his head: "Don't waste it, your time as a teacher has come, and you will be entrusted with a big task when you come back."
Su Sanlang had tears in his eyes: "You eat it, eat it before talking, teacher, student, I beg you."
Meng Xiang forced out a smile. The children educated by the Su family are all good.
In the end, Su Sanlang crushed the Peiyuan Pill with his own hands and gave it to Meng Xiang, and then he knelt beside the bed and listened to his teacher's teachings.
Prime Minister Meng closed his eyes and rested for a long time before saying: "The two years of the New Deal are just the beginning. You have to stick to it. Only in this way can the people be happy. The great prosperity of Dai Viet Kingdom can be expected. I have had more than a hundred disciples in my life. I have real talent for governing the world.
There are only two people, you and Zi Qian. Zi Qian is smooth but principled, so he can be called your help. The rest are all general. When the time comes, there will be one person Shi Ming has to worry about."
"Yes." Su Sanlang said softly.
Meng Xiang sighed: "Mu Linhuai was a man of great benefit to his senses, but he was too young and fell into love. I know a thing or two about his entanglement with the Su family. I can never hide my faults, but Shi Ming can keep it in mind and use the strengths of others."
, Beware of people’s shortcomings. If Linhuai can break his attachment, he will be a good candidate to be the prefect. The talents of Dai Viet Kingdom have not yet matured, so we must not hurt this one."
"Students will be able to distinguish between public and private affairs, and their teachers will be at ease." Su Shiming said solemnly.
Meng Xiang smiled weakly: "Mrs. Su is really capable of governing the world. It's a pity that my mentor is not here. If there is any big matter, go back and discuss with Mrs. Su. She will definitely give you some advice."
Su Sanlang held Prime Minister Meng's hand: "Teacher, students can do anything except state affairs. Students..."
"Shiming, my teacher has determined to devote himself to the country since he was a child. Now he can go to death calmly. The descendants of the Meng family all depend on their destiny. You must not pave the way for them. Be an official, be an upright official, and be a model for future generations. Only then can you be worthy of the trust that your teacher has now entrusted to you."
The heart of the country." Meng Fu came over and grabbed Su Shiming's hand: "Remember, phase is the protection of the people and the virtue of the country. What you are assisting is a wise king and a wise master. You must be worthy of the king above and the people below. Keep in mind the art of balancing courtiers.
.”
Su Sanlang burst into tears: "Yes, don't worry, teacher, the student will remember it for the rest of his life."
Meng Xiang calmed down slowly: "Female studies, treat it as such! Remember! Remember!"
"Yes." Su Sanlang had never been so sad before. Meng Xiang in front of him became his lifelong role model.
After Prime Minister Meng finished his instructions, he asked Su Sanlang to leave, and the Meng family went in to say goodbye.
Also kneeling outside were Liang Ziqian and a group of Meng Xiang's students. Su Sanlang knelt beside Liang Ziqian.
"My mentor has been waiting for you." Liang Ziqian said.
Su Sanlang lowered his head: "Yes."
"We will definitely accomplish what he wishes in his heart." Liang Ziqian clenched his fists.
Su Sanlang nodded heavily: "Yes!"
The pillar of the country passed away on New Year's Eve in the third year of Kaiyuan. Emperor Yue Ming personally came to express his condolences.
The whole Meng family helped the spirit out of the capital, and the people wore filial piety and offered sacrifices on the road...
In the imperial study room, Xiao Qiyu looked at the people in front of him.
At the beginning of the fourth year of Kaiyuan, Dai Viet lost a generation of good prime minister Meng Jiuling. Xiao Qiyu took a long time to say: "The position is of great importance. You are all my assistant ministers. You can recommend someone who can take up this position."
Xiao Ce, He Yugui, Yang Bangmo and Yi Yanfu are both teachers and friends with Meng Xiang. Who is not sad at this time?
But the national affairs are too big to be delayed.
"Su Shiming can take on this responsibility." He Yugui stood up and saluted the emperor respectfully: "The Su family has outstanding achievements. Su Shiming is the favorite disciple of Prime Minister Meng. When Prime Minister Meng was dying, he and his ministers recommended Su Shiming."
"Prime Minister Meng also recommended this person to his ministers," Yi Yanfu said.
Yang Bangmo also said the same.
Xiao Ce looked at Xiao Qiyu: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Meng also recommended Su Shiming."
"Meng Xiang also submitted a memorial to me, and he was also talking about Su Shiming." Xiao Qiyu lowered his eyes: "Do you have a second candidate?"
All four of them were silent. There were candidates, but who could compare to Su Shiming? Although the emperor did not mention the title of Yafu, they were all people close to the emperor. This was no secret.
Xiao Ce asked: "Is the emperor worried?"
"Yes." That's what Xiao Qiyu was waiting for. He looked at the assistant ministers in front of him and said slowly: "I'm afraid that people in the world will think that I have selfish motives, and I'm even more afraid that someone will be looking at the Su family. The Su family is for the country."
I am deeply grateful for all the things you have done. I am afraid it will not be suitable for this position to fall on the Su family again. It is not that Su Shiming is not worthy of this responsibility, but that everyone in the world says that he kills people invisible."
Xiao Ce felt that the emperor was retreating in order to advance, but there was no evidence.
He took the lead and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, when you recommend talents to serve the country, you are also serving the people. Even if everyone in the world talks about it, it is also a matter of other people's lips. The position of prime minister belongs to none other than Su Shiming!"
He, Gui and others knelt on the ground together, trying to protect Su Shiming.
Xiao Qiyu nodded slowly: "We will make a decision tomorrow morning."
Su Sanlang was really heartbroken. His mentor had always been supportive and enlightening. He was obviously fine when he went back, but when we meet again, we will be separated forever. In his heart, his mentor is like a father.
However, his mentor was a breeze, and his arrangements were very decisive. The Meng family left Beijing with no intention of coming back. This gave him no chance to take care of the descendants of the Meng family. He was so sad that he went out in confusion, and saw
The tavern, walked in.
Shitou wanted to tell the visitor that the business was closed, but when he saw that it was Mr. Su, how could he not entertain him? Knowing that Mr. Su wanted to drink to drown his sorrows, he invited him to the small yard at the back, where he served sake and vegetables. Su Sanlang poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.
Stay by the side.
"Mr. Su, I don't dare to disobey my boss's rules. It's better to drink less." Shitou said calmly no matter how difficult it was.
Su Sanlang looked at Shi Shi: "Your boss has too much control. Can't I afford the wine?"
"No, no." Shitou could only say, "My boss is afraid that you will get into trouble after drinking."
Liuzi glanced at Shitou: "Who is your boss? You are really lenient!"
Shitou bowed and said, "My boss is the second young lady of the Lin Mansion. The second young lady said that if the young lady comes to drink again when she sees Mr. Su, she must sell it or not sell more."
Liu Zi almost didn't choke, so he hurried over: "Third Master, Second Miss is right, drinking is very harmful to the body, let's go back."
It was also the first time that Su Sanlang knew that this tavern was actually the business of Miss Lin Er, and he sighed: "I'm sorry, please tell Miss Lin Er on my behalf that if you have the opportunity, thank her in person for your kindness."
The sixth son was in a panic. My third master, did you still have the grace to take care of me back then? It's not too late for the rest of your life. You can't afford to delay this matter. You have to go to the Regent's Palace!
Before the sixth son could go to the Regent's Palace to ask the princess to make the decision, the news that the third master had become the prime minister of Dai Viet made the sixth son a little embarrassed. He had to listen to the second lady's words, but if the second lady was offended, he would no longer be a human being.
, he made a sudden move and went to the Regent's Palace...
