Grand Master Feng said that he was ill at home, so he would naturally read the newspapers in his spare time. Originally, he would not read the stories in the newspapers, but since he was free, he took it as a pastime and read it.
Since this story was originally a serial, he had read it with gusto two days ago, but the more he read, the more he felt something was wrong.
This is obviously talking about myself.
When he read in the storybook that the Grand Master was castrated, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his crotch.
No wonder the colleagues who have been visiting the mansion in the past few days have strange eyes.
I said why their eyes always glance down.
Do they think I also...
When Taishi Feng thought of this, he suddenly became angry.
This grand report is so dirty and it actually revealed someone's privacy. I will definitely report it to the imperial court and have it banned.
But then I thought about it, isn't there three hundred taels of silver in this place?
But……
However, the fact that he took a concubine two years ago was well known to everyone. He was still able to take a concubine at an old age, and the news was widely spread at that time.
Coupled with other details, anyone can see that the Grand Master in this Hua Ben is talking about himself.
Not to mention, the highlight of the day for the storyteller in the teahouse is to tell stories from the newspapers, and he can tell them ten or eight times in a day.
I'm afraid that at this moment, the entire Yingtian Mansion is spreading rumors that he has violated ethics and that he has been castrated.
This kind of thing cannot be explained yet, and the description becomes darker and darker.
He can't take off his pants to prove to everyone that his roots are still there.
In this mixed situation of shame and anger, Master Feng fell ill again.
In the morning of the next day, Feng Shilang from the Ministry of Civil Affairs submitted a petition on behalf of his father, expressing his intention to resign and return to his hometown.
In this memorial, Grand Master Feng spoke sincerely, and His Majesty the Emperor personally came to persuade him to stay, but Grand Master Feng had no choice but to leave.
Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor gave Taishi Feng the false title of Guanglu Doctor and allowed Taishi Feng to retire from office.
On the surface it looked like he was retired, but in the eyes of the civil and military officials, it was clear that Master Feng had been overthrown by Yang Xuan.
This method can be said to be unbelievable. There was neither a fierce confrontation nor any accusations. It was just a small story, which made Master Feng lose his face and had to retire and return home.
The process involved is terrifying to think about.
It is said that when Grand Master Feng left Beijing, he plucked out a handful of his beard in front of all the officials who were seeing him off, saying that he was staying in Yingtian Mansion on his behalf.
But everyone knows that he is telling everyone that I am whole and have not been castrated.
On the other hand, he also said that he did not want to leave, but was forced to do so.
Even the current Grand Master was brought down, who would dare to cause trouble to Yang Xuan.
All civil and military officials in the dynasty knew that this grand report was probably closely related to Yang Xuan, and they also saw the power of this grand report.
No matter how powerful the scholar's mouth is, can it be compared to the mouths of all the people?
In the past, they were the ones who set the pace, but Shengbao has more rhythmic tricks than them and is more down-to-earth.
Not to mention ordinary people, even they themselves are often led to the rhythm without even realizing it.
With this incident, Yang Xuan was considered clean, but at this moment, Guan Yunrong appeared in front of Yang Xuan.
"Oh, isn't this shopkeeper Guan Da? What brought you here?"
Yang Xuan saw Guan Yunrong and pulled her into the office.
"Tell me, how's it going in Luoyang?"
Guan Yunrong rolled her eyes: "What's the matter? Now, including several surrounding counties, Luoyang already has twelve branches with extremely delicious food."
"It's amazing. This is better than what Yingtian Mansion has developed." Yang Xuan praised: "Lao Zhou and I can't compare to you alone. I'll treat you to a big dinner later and treat you well."
"
"You, University Scholar Yang, are so busy with your affairs that you are almost ready to become the prince-in-law. Naturally, you don't like this small business."
"..."
Yang Xuan was immediately choked by Guan Yunrong's words.
No matter how dull he was, he could still see the resentment on Guan Yunrong's face.
Although the two have neither an engagement nor a confirmed relationship, Guan Yunrong has expressed her feelings many times, but Yang Xuan has not expressed his attitude.
Now, in the blink of an eye, he signed up to run for the consort, Yang Xuan naturally felt a little guilty.
There's no way to explain this. It's not that much that Yang Xuan likes Lu Jing. It can even be said that Lu Jing's status in his heart is similar to that of Guan Yunrong.
Guan Yunrong could also see Yang Xuan's embarrassment, so she changed the subject and said, "Don't you want to treat me to a big dinner? The time is right, let's go."
"Then let's walk."
In the Wenhui Building, there was a table full of people. In addition to Yang Xuan and Guan Yunrong, there were also Shopkeeper Zhou and His Highness Prince Chun, all of whom were extremely delicious shareholders.
Since it was a shareholders' gathering, it was natural to discuss some business matters. Then Guan Yunrong said: "I am also interested in Shengfa Department Store. Can you open a branch in Luoyang?"
"Of course." Yang Xuan agreed hurriedly. Shengfa Department Store was expanding rapidly, and Guan Yunrong was an acquaintance who knew everything about it. It was naturally perfect for her to open a branch.
Then we discussed the details of Shengfa Department Store.
Finally, the discussion was almost over. It was almost dark, and the meal lasted from noon to evening. I simply changed the dishes on the table and continued eating.
While they were eating and drinking, Guan Yunrong suddenly said: "Yang Xuan, do you still remember the one-year appointment I said?"
Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Of course I remember, isn't there still two months left?"
Guan Yunrong nodded: "But I have completed the test at home ahead of schedule."
"Oh?" Yang Xuan smiled brightly: "Congratulations to you, from now on, you are qualified to speak out in the Guan family."
Guan Yunrong nodded and said: "In this year, I have proved to the family that although I am a woman, I do not have to rely on men to survive. My abilities are no worse than those of the men in the family, and even the entire family."
In my family, no man of my generation has achieved more than me."
"congratulations."
Everyone toasted.
"But do you know what my purpose was when I threatened death to fight for one year?"
Yang Xuan frowned. Isn't it a reflection of the new trend of women's thoughts? Marrying because you don't want to be controlled by the family and want to control your own life, what else is the purpose?
"The main reason why I don't want to marry someone I don't know according to my family's arrangements is that I already have someone in my heart and I can't tolerate anyone else."
Guan Yunrong said this in front of a group of senior men, her face felt hot, but she continued: "Do you know who this person is?"
His Royal Highness Prince Chun and Shopkeeper Zhou immediately turned their heads and looked at Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan's hand that was about to pick up the food stopped in mid-air.
