Chapter 169 Talking to the Superintendent, Xiao Quanchen
~.-~ It sounds really surprising that Wang Qi is not only seventeen years old, but has been granted the rank of fourth rank. However, considering that Wang Qi is engaged to the third princess, and the rank of guest of honor is from the second rank, maybe this is the fourth rank.
Taste is just a transition. Shun Niang was confused for a moment, then she was only happy. She looked at Wang Qi and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Qi Lang."
Wang Qi said "haha" twice: "It's just borrowing His Majesty's light, it's nothing. Erlang has beauty in his heart, and his future achievements will be limitless. He is the pillar of the Wang family."
He was talking about the clan’s retirement. The clan’s retreat, and the people who can support each other in the officialdom are Taoist idiots. First, the two of them came out of the fifth service. Even if they are clan members, they are from far away, so there is no need.
Avoidance; the second is that he grew up together, and he is willing to support this brother instead of other clan members.
Shun Niang only praised Dao Chi because he was humble. She pursed her lips and said, "Erlang is still young, so there is no need to praise him so harshly."
Having said that, the look he looked at Erlang was still full of expectation and pride.
Seeing the two god brothers on a blind date, Wang Qi felt sour in his heart. Even though he had been dissatisfied with his uncle and aunt in the past few years, they were a family after all, and his cousins loved him so much. But now they were for him.
Because of this, the entire clan will be implicated. Will his relatives regard him as an enemy?
He was bowing his head and feeling sad, not wanting his stomach to growl.
The two of them got up before dawn, went to Beijing from Liangxiang, and then entered the palace. They spent most of the day tossing and turning. If nothing else, they were really hungry.
Shun Niang and Dao Chi both looked at Wang Qi. Wang Qi touched his stomach and laughed and said: "I got up early in the morning, and I have eaten for the fourth night. I will be really hungry now...
Shun Niang said: "Fang sent me to call your brother-in-law and Sanlang... I guess they will be home soon. Let's eat the weizi cushion first." After that, she got up and brought a plate of rutzi over in person, and ordered Lamei to throw in the towel.
, wipe their hands.
This was no one else's house, and Wang Qi and Dao Chi were really hungry, so they ate most of the plate of Wei Zi without any courtesy.
Shun Niang looked at the two of them eating with a smile. She thought of the arrangements for the night and said, "After dinner, you guys can rest here." If Uncle Bu is not here, he will stay in that room."
Thinking of Mr. Zhang's appearance just now, he obviously had a bad impression of the two of them. They didn't seem to be staying as guests. It was just that Shun Niang didn't agree with the conditions, so Wang Qi said: "Then we have arranged a place to live in Hui Tong Guan, and we have to listen to the palace."
It is not good to live outside if you are summoned inside."
When Shun Niang heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, thinking that the two brothers were ministers of the dragon, and there were no rules in protecting them, she stopped nagging.
The sisters and brothers talked for a while, and Zhang Qinghe brought Sanlang and Gao Mengxiang back.
It turned out that Shangfeng and the others came back from the Huitong Hall and went to the new house together.
After hearing the news from the Zhang family boy, the three of them came over together.
Although it was not the first time for Sanlang and Gao Mengxiang to come back to Zhang's house, they were still one floor away and could not be brought directly into the inner house. Zhang Qinghe invited them to serve tea in the front yard and living room and went to the backyard by himself.
Dao Chi and Wang Qi followed them out, and everyone was talking in the living room.
When dinner was approaching, Shun Niang heard that her father-in-law was out visiting friends, and was about to send someone to invite him back. However, Zhang Qinghe got the old servant's private information and knew that his father left out of anger, and had not stayed to say whether he would come back for dinner.
He knew that his father had a casual temperament, and he was speechless when he guessed that his father and Wang Qi had nothing to do with each other.
How old are Wang Qi and Dao Chi? Their father is really a pretender without any elders. He even postponed his trip before, just to wait to meet his brother-in-law, so as not to neglect the in-laws. But after meeting this time, he walked away, but
Too rude.
Even though he was full of slander in his heart, "A son never blames his father." Zhang Qinghe could only apologize for his father, saying that his old friend had an appointment a long time ago, and so on.
Although Mr. Zhang had a bad attitude when he left, Wang Qi and Dao Chi both listened to his "unruly advice."
Wang Qi only thought that Mr. Zhang had a straightforward and lovely temperament, while Taoist Chi thought that Mr. Zhang was a man with evil intentions //Fastest text update - no ads//. The two of them said they only respected Mr. Zhang and did not offer gifts.
When Zhang Qinghe saw this, he felt at ease.
I can't help but look down upon Wang Qi and my brother-in-law. If anyone else had been treated with such indifference, even if they could endure it, they would still care about them. Wang Qi and his brother-in-law are really tolerant and kind-hearted.
Just now in front of Shun Niang, Wang Qi showed off that Dao Chi had received a royal title as a gift, but now it was difficult to say this in front of Sanlang and Gao Mengxiang. Dao Chi was originally a younger brother in the twelfth house. He adopted him and received a royal title from his parents. It sounds like
It was a decent thing to do, but it was still a bit embarrassing for Twelve Fangs.
Wang Qi then mentioned that Dao Chi would go to the Imperial College to study next month, and that he would leave to return to Anlu the day after.
Wang Qi traveled back to his hometown, but it was hard work, but after all, he was on an imperial mission, so everyone couldn't help but congratulate him again.
Regarding the Taoist idiot entering the Imperial Academy, Sanlang couldn't help but beam with joy and said: "Very good, very good!"
The official admission time to the Imperial College is in the fall. Although Saburo had entered the Imperial College last fall, it was only an attached school at that time, and the official admission was in the spring of this year. Saburo entered the school in May, and was considered a "transfer student." He happened to be in the same class as Saburo.
Sanlang entered the school as an "official student", and the Taoist idiot is now "in prison according to the order." He is also an "enyin" and can be regarded as an "official student". In this way, he will save himself from being bullied.
It's not that he has nothing to worry about, but that although there are many outstanding scholars in the Imperial College, there are also many children of powerful people. Sanlang himself is just the son of a third-rank official, and he can be considered a figure in the local area, but nothing in the capital.
Because Emperor Zhengde did not attach great importance to Confucianism, the current Imperial College is not as good as it was in the early years, but there are thousands of scholars in the "Beijian".
There are many nobles and nobles gathered together, as well as scholars from outside the vassal, and the relationship between them inside and outside is complicated.
In his opinion, Erlang is pure, kind and honest. What if he is bullied? As an elder brother, of course he will protect him, but he is afraid that he will not be able to protect him.
With the name of "being imprisoned by grace", you no longer have to worry about being bullied by others.
Thinking of this, he and Erlang talked about the current situation of the Imperial College and the confrontation between "officials' livelihood" and "people's livelihood".
Seeing Sanlang's serious expression, Gao Mengxiang smiled and said: "Sanlang is too honest. Even if there are more princes, nobles and nobles in the school, there is nothing to be afraid of. If you are kind and righteous, you will enroll this spring. If there are really people who don't open your eyes, go and fight with the two of them."
explain."
Wang Qi listened curiously and said: "Which one is benevolence or righteousness?"
Gao Mengxiang said: "He is the eldest grandson and second grandson of my maternal uncle."
Gao Mengxiang's maternal grandfather was Yang Tingyi, the Minister of Rites, and his maternal uncle was Yang Tinghe, the Chief Assistant.
Although the Yang family started to prosper late, Yang Chunzhong, the father of Yang Tinghe, entered the officialdom and was promoted to the fourth rank. However, in the generation of Yang Tinghe and his brothers, three brothers, two Jinshis and one Juren, have all entered the officialdom: now, one
They are the chief assistants, one is in the capital, and the other is a local official: in the third generation, Yang Ting and his four sons, one is a Jinshi, two are promoted, one is an official, the eldest son, the third son is an official, the second son, and the fourth son are in business.
Yang Tingyi's eldest son Zaotian, and his second son Juren.
The Yang family not only has outstanding sons and nephews, but the sons-in-law they choose are also scholars.
Yang Tinghe's son-in-law Jin Chengxuan was a Jinshi, Yang Tingyi's eldest son-in-law Wang Qinghong was a Tanhua, and his second son-in-law Gao Yuxing was also a Jinshi: Yang Tinghe served as the chief minister for ten years, and the Yang family's nephews and in-laws created a network of power in the imperial court.
Even the prince's palace in the capital did not dare to look down upon Yang Ting and his chief minister.
This is also the reason why Yang Tinghe was able to take sole charge of the court after the death of the late emperor. If it were the first assistant with a weak personality, the capital would have been in chaos.
The Gao family relied on the Yang family, so Gao Mengxiang mentioned that his maternal family was also honored. He also praised his maternal grandfather, great-uncle, and several uncles.
Dao Chi and Wang Qi looked at each other, secretly shocked.
Although Gao Mengxiang did not mention the specific situation of the Yang Youren brothers in the Imperial College, but hearing his praise for the two in his words, it can be seen that the prince's children do not need to be afraid.
As the most powerful chief assistant, Changbie, the second grandson, and the two brothers do have this confidence.
But if you look at it from another angle, it also shows that Yang Tinghe's weight and Gongzhou Xungui also need to "step back."
This is no longer an "important minister." but a "powerful minister."
The new emperor came to the capital and ascended the throne in an extremely hasty manner. The outside world only knew that the vassal king came to the capital to inherit the throne. However, Dao Chi and Wang Qi knew the inside story and knew that Zuo Lijun was confronting him.
Regardless of whether Yang Tinghe was acting out of public motives or selfish motives, he was suspected of being "forced".
If he is a "lonely person" in the officialdom... he can only be said to be "cowardly". Since he is a liaison in the officialdom, he has the intention of exerting power. Which emperor can tolerate it?
Wang Qi looked at Sanlang with a somewhat complicated look, and wanted to mention a few words, but Sanlang was the nephew of the Yang family, and the blood relationship could not be broken. In addition, he also heard his grandfather mention that Wang Qinghong was protected by the Yang family in the officialdom. Last year,
Qi Fu also followed the Yang family's path. This relationship is not open to the public.
Perhaps he also remembered this subconsciously. When he was thinking about the clan's plans after retiring, he did not think about Wang Qinghong. Wang Qinghong was a member of the Yang family and had his own position, but he was not thinking about his wholehearted plan for his clan members.
Dao Chi's heart was heavy. He didn't expect that the Yang family would be so big in the officialdom.
I originally thought that even if Yang Tinghe fell, even if Sanlang was affected, it would not be too big. After all, his surname was Wang, not a member of the Yang family. But he did not expect that the in-laws and nephews of the Yang family were so powerful. They seemed to have the potential to "form a party", so
When the emperor wants Mu Shi, it won't be a matter of family and surname, but of branches and branches.
Looking at Sanlang's thin face, Dao Chi thought that he should also work hard.
Sanlang wanted to avoid the big turmoil, so he could only avoid being affected by the turmoil in the capital by becoming a Jinshi before Yang Tinghe fell and being sent to a remote place.
As a result, time is a bit tight.
There will be exams in the autumn of next year and the exams in the second year of Jiajing. He and Sanlang can give it a try.
When Yang Tinghe steps down, Sanlang will not be of high rank and will not fall into the eyes of the big bosses in the capital. It will not be difficult for him to take advantage of him.
If he takes the exam late and ends up behind Yang Ting and Hung Tai, who knows what the impact will be.
It's just that Sanlang was quite unlucky. He had a teacher who rebelled with Prince Ning, and a maternal wife who was in conflict with the new emperor. It was difficult for him to make progress in his official career...
