In the north of the imperial city, there is the direct room of the eunuch and the eunuch.
"Old Wang, you should be more cautious in your actions in the future and don't make such jokes again. If Ye Guang hadn't always been kind, Dongchang would have been completely disgraced this time. You, an older generation, still It's not as good as those little monkeys in the East Palace. What kind of face do you have if the news spreads out? This time, I will take down a few of the useless ones in one go. I am doing it for your own good." Among the seven or eight eunuchs of the Si Li Supervisor, Dai Yi was the youngest, and besides Xiao Jing, he was also the most bookish. Not only was his calligraphy considered to be as good as Shen Du's gold-plated jade calligraphy, but he was also a master at playing the piano. Once, Emperor Hongzhi asked him to Played a song with Xiao Jing, and the last verse was filled with admiration. The two of them were each given an imperial letter, so they liked each other the most. However, in the eyes of others, the two of them have always been good friends. Friends and disloyalty, so this time it was Dai Yi who took charge of rectifying the East Factory.
At this time, he quietly said this to Wang Yue. When all the eunuchs arrived and sat down in their seats on the left and right sides, Dai Yi bowed his hands to Xiao Jing, who was in charge, and said: "Eunuch Xiao, Secretary Li Supervisors have always performed their duties. Eunuch Li's sudden illness has left his establishment without a boss. It's better to prepare as soon as possible." "That's right, then please invite Eunuch Chen and Eunuch Wang. You are so troublesome." Xiao Jing looked at Chen Kuan and Wang Yue. Seeing that they were stunned, they quickly stood up and responded. He pondered for a moment and then smiled and said, "Recently, the emperor often meditates and builds reefs in the Zhai Palace. Firstly, it is because he started from last year. There have been constant disasters from the beginning. This time there was no harvest in Anqing and other prefectures in Beizhili. Free food was guaranteed. Secondly, because the weather was getting hotter, the Zhai Palace was ventilated and cooler than the Qianqing Palace. Eunuch Li said he was ill and was recuperating at home. According to our family, it is better to go to the Zhai Palace to accompany the emperor. By chanting sutras, meditating, and seeing the beauty of the sky day and night, soaking in the dragon's energy, the body and spirit will be better." Although Xiao Jing and Li Rong's Jie Wu is not just a show-off, but the people in charge of the ceremonial department are all human beings. Who wouldn’t know this? Therefore, Xiao Jing actually found such a place for Li Rong, who was said to be ill. Not only is this not a shame, , on the contrary, it is a kind of fulfillment. After all, who doesn’t know that Li Rong’s illness is a heart disease? Several other eunuchs were surprised for a moment. Wang Yue and Chen Kuan, who had always been good friends with Li Rong, looked at each other and all agreed. Qi nodded.
"Mr. Xiao, you are so thoughtful!" After finishing the chores, the eunuchs called in a few court clerks and others, and sorted the memorials in order of priority and listed the important details one by one according to the usual rules.
They were busy working in silence for more than an hour. By the time the memorial was finished, everyone was sweating profusely. Xiao Jing took the soft towel handed by Rui Sheng and wiped his face, then looked at Dai Yi and said, "Old man Dai, you will take the lead to Zhai Palace today, and we will go see Eunuch Li later.
After Xiao Jing said this, everyone was speechless for a moment. They immediately went to the Qianqing Palace to deliver memorials, and to the cabinet to collect votes. After a while, everyone dispersed. Xiao Jing took a few young eunuchs to see them first. Li Rong spoke softly and skillfully in a few words, which made the old man burst into tears. He even agreed to go to Zhai Palace to accompany him without much thought.
After returning to his small house, Xiao Jing sent away the other servants as soon as he entered the house, leaving Rui Sheng alone. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Go to see Xu Xun and say that Li Rong's transfer has been settled." .No one is allowed to come in and out of the Zhai Palace at will. Besides, he is a criminal, so it is not easy to tell the news.
As for Ma Wensheng, he is busy with the capital inspection and naturally cannot take care of the selection of the library. If we don't think about it, Jiao Fang must have stepped in to take charge of it together with Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Etiquette. Our family has nothing to do with the rest." Wang Shou.
Xu Xun did not witness the confrontation between Ren and Li Mengyang, but on the day of the honor banquet of the Ministry of Rites after the examination results were released, Wang Shouren rarely came to the barracks to report, and did not arrive until the third day. He stood on the side of the playground and watched.
Xu Xun, who was crawling around with a large number of soldiers, saw the person coming from a distance, and immediately rushed to meet him. When he met him, he looked him up and down.
Fortunately, okay, there is no missing piece of meat! It seems that Li Mengyang finally did not use violence like he did when he beat Zhang Heling!
Wang Shouren now knew very well about Xu Xun's style. He reacted as soon as he saw the person's eyes. He couldn't help but cough lightly and said: "Li Kongtong is not easy to convince. I tried my best to finally convince him."
I believe that you are single-minded and not hidden. I promised him to give lectures three times a month, but he gave up for the time being. But he was right. These days, I devoted myself whole-heartedly to military affairs, and I left other things behind.
It’s been too long, I’m afraid I won’t be able to spend time here during my holiday for the next period of time.”
"Brother Wang is originally a man of both civil and military skills. I naturally have no objection to your balancing work and rest. However,..." Before Xu Zhu could finish his words, Wang Shouren sighed as if he had foreseen it in advance: "What do you have?
Arrange it, say.”
"I didn't expect that an honest man like Brother Wang would be shrewd now." Xu Xun smiled slightly. Seeing Wang Shouren looking at him with some anger, he said with a smile, "Didn't I mention the matter of Xu Changgu to you once? He
I was beaten until my arm was broken in the street. If I hadn't passed by, the person would have run away. But those people only confessed that they were hired by others and could not find out the mastermind, so they could only forget it. Fortunately, the Queen's Qianqiu Festival,
The prince asked me to find some fresher Yuefu songs by Renma, and I suddenly thought of him. If not, his results in this year's imperial examination would have been disastrous...,
Wang Shouren had heard Xu Xun mention the matter, but at that time he had just downplayed it. When he heard about this twist, he also learned that Xu Xun had given such an opportunity to a stranger for nothing. Thinking about it, he also
It was because of his deliberate concealment that he became the current prince's half-skilled archery master. He couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Xu, you reminded me of myself.
I really have to say, you are really... so righteous!" Xu Xun had used the word "loyalty" to flatter Liu Jin before, but now he heard Wang Shouren praising him for his righteousness. Although he was very thick-skinned, he still tolerated it.
He couldn't help but blush on his face~ He was not someone who meddles in other people's business. If he hadn't taken advantage of the unknown, how could he be so righteous? This awkward moment passed, and he immediately said with a smile.
: "Brother Wang is such an award. Of course I have to help with this little effort. Brother Wang, you have also seen Xu Zhenqing. It is difficult to judge a person by his appearance. Even if he passes through high school, there is no guarantee that he will pass the selection.
That's right. Since you are going to give lectures at the Literary Society and Poetry Society, why don't you take him with you?" Wang Shouren just said that Xu Xun was righteous. When he heard this, he couldn't help but laugh again. After nodding his head as a promise, he
He said: "No wonder His Royal Highness the Prince often feels relaxed and happy when we are together. At first glance, you seem to be smart, shrewd, and unconventional. But after getting along with each other, I feel that although you are informal, you are really caring towards people. Xu Zhenqing's
The whole thing is on my shoulders. If you want to say that his appearance is not impressive, what about Mr. Wuyan who was so famous back then?,...
Although Xu Xun knew that he was using tricks on people, when they really got along with each other, his calculations were nothing compared to his ability to fulfill other people's wishes, so he accepted the praise of his son Wang Shouren. The two of them
After talking for a while, Wang Shouren went to prepare the military formation for the evening, and Xu Xun took advantage of the break in the drill to call Qian Ning over.
"Zhang Zong said that they are still dissatisfied these days? If they still use their authority to instigate the Youjun army to have trouble with you, just tell me and I will punish them severely!" "Thank you, sir. How many of them have been there these days?
You're still at peace!" Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not been here at all these days, and he has not had the opportunity to show his unique skills in shooting left and right bows, Xu Xun asked him to temporarily act as Qianhu, which still made him feel valued. Even if he knew the few below
The prince's stabbing on the head was probably the price for being reused, but he gritted his teeth and endured it.
"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved! Qian Ning, I know that it is difficult to train a few of them, but if they don't have higher status than each other, who will be in the position of these thousand households?"
Even if it doesn't work, it will be difficult for me to pull you up. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a man who loves bravery, but you are brave enough to fight alone, with no connections or subordinates. Even if you are really in a high position, all the people who come up to you at that time are
People who follow people’s influence are not as sincere as they are now...”…,………,…,…,……,…,…,……
………,……,…,…,…,
After Xu Xun confided in Qian Ning, he returned home that night and saw Rui Sheng waiting at home. Xiao Jing brought him out and knew that Li Rong would stay in the Zhai Palace for the next few days. Naturally, he felt reassured.
After sending off Ruisheng, as usual, Li Qingniang came to serve as a matchmaker and pass the letter. He took the little girl's letter, but left behind this former elite of the Western Factory with extraordinary artistic skills.
"Mother Li, could you please go to Banqiao Hutong and send a message to the monk, telling him that he can go to Lingji Hutong to have sex in the West Factory in a few days. As long as he reveals his identity, he will definitely be used by the monk there.
"." When Li Qingniang heard the word "Xichang", her expression suddenly became extremely complicated. He seemed not to notice, and said to himself: "In addition, you tell the monk and let him think of some way to do it."
Rumors spread in the ears of Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, that Lang Jiaofang, the Minister of Personnel, was dissatisfied with his son's failure to pass the imperial examination, and intended to write a petition to reduce the number of Hanlin scholars in this department, and even planned to write a letter to exclude the Ministry of Rites from the selection of the academy.
Go and return them all to the Ministry of Personnel and the Hanlin Academy. Then he said two sentences to Ma Wen, meaning that this time Jiaohuangzhong failed, Jiao Fang suspected that he was the envoy. He is an expert on how to do it, so he will do it." Although Li Qingniang said she didn't understand.
It was an important matter for the court, but Xu Xun's blatant intention to spread rumors and stir up trouble made her shudder. She had no intention of agreeing, but thinking about the fact that the eldest lady was tied to him, she could only nod her head.
However, as she watched Xu Xun unfold the letter and look at it, sometimes smiling, sometimes shaking his head, and sometimes stroking his forehead, her uneasiness eased a little.
"By the way, you go back and tell Yue'er that no matter how well the Xiuzhuang business is run, it will be limited after all. If she is interested, there is a large wasteland outside Xuanwu Gate. She might as well eat some and build a house. I will use the land there in the future.
We will definitely try to raise the price. By then, the price will be more than ten times or a hundred times if it changes hands?"!
