Chapter 614: Three Sessions of Trials, Books and Speeches

On this night, when Zhu Ying returned to the Zhao Guogong Mansion, it was almost time. An unmarried daughter lingered at her fiancΓ©'s house until so late, even if she brought enough guards, the Zhu family also knew the character of Zhang Shou's mother and son, and at this moment, the family was still waiting for her in Qing'an Hall, from Mrs. Tai to Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing and Jiuniang, to Zhu Tingfang and Zhu Er.

So much so that when Zhu Yingmei entered the door, in the face of such a big battle, she couldn't help but blurt out: "Grandmother, father, eldest brother and second brother, are you planning to be tried in three sessions?" ”

Zhu Eryi, who was secretly yawning, laughed out loud when he heard Zhu Ying's words, and then thought that everyone in this hall was all older than him - even if Zhu Ying was younger than him, he had a much higher status than him in this family!

He quickly shut up and sat upright. Although he didn't want to wait here at all, wouldn't it be good to do something in the room that everyone likes to see? But when my grandmother saw the call, even my father and brother were still waiting here, let alone him? So, he could only sit like a clock while desperately secretly giving Zhu Ying a look, with an expression that you must be careful.

Of course, his expression of ventilating the news couldn't hide from anyone present, and of course he didn't intend to hide it, after all, letting people see that he and Zhu Ying have a deep relationship between brother and sister, which is also good for making up for his stupid behavior last year.

Sure enough, Mrs. Tai didn't look at Zhu Er, who was full of strange faces, smiled, and calmly answered Zhu Ying's half-ridiculous, half-coquettish question: "It's all because we spoiled you girl, you were talking weird things in Xinglong Tea House before, and now you came back so late, but you still said what three sessions were tried." hasn't married yet, this is already someone else's family! ”

Without waiting for Zhu Ying to argue, she changed her words and said: "We didn't bother to ask how you and Ah Shou were, anyway, you are about to get married, and it will be your mother-in-law's turn to take care of you in the future!" So many people in the family are waiting for you to come back, because they want to ask, you and Ah Shou saved the man who fell into the water on the edge of the silver ingot bridge today, what is going on, and you can talk about the cause and effect. ”

"Don't be impatient. You must know that the news that just came from the palace was that Liu Feng, the steward of the Qianqing Palace, was killed by the emperor's order. ”

This time, Zhu Ying was really shocked. Of course, the loss of color is not because of Liu Feng's death, in her opinion, this guy who said those words to the four princes is innocent, but she knows the emperor's temperament best, although sometimes he is impulsive and reckless than the four princes, and even Zhang Shou is stunned when he is maverick, but the emperor has always disliked killing people casually.

Especially non-punishment killing, which is the last thing the emperor who has always revered Taizu is willing to do.

Zhu Ying was silent for a moment, and finally recounted a series of things after saving people, including the words of the four princes' big mouths, all of them. Although she doesn't like to chew words, she has an excellent memory, and she almost doesn't miss a word at this time.

And Mrs. Tai and the others also listened carefully, except for Mrs. Tai's occasional interruption to ask Shen Xianling and Zou Ming about the reactions of the three scholars, Zhu Jing, Jiuniang and Zhu Tingfang were silent throughout the whole process. As for Zhu Er, he only cared about marveling at the mouth of the fourth prince there, where could he ask the slightest question? It wasn't until Zhu Ying finished speaking that Mrs. Tai sighed softly.

"No wonder the emperor is so angry...... In this way, something big is going to happen this time! Shen County's order was single-handedly promoted by the emperor to the fifth grade, and he is not an eventful person, so he will never make a big deal about a mere servant, but when he hears such words in front of the three lifters and a few errand officers, if he doesn't have the slightest reaction, how will he be an official? ”

"I just hope that he can insist that it is Liu Feng who is open-mouthed, and don't expand the situation to the celebrant supervisor."

When Mrs. Tai said this, seeing Zhu Ying's depressed face, she said in a deep voice: "Before the canonization of the crown prince, no one knew whether it was Liu Feng's quick mouth, and someone was afraid of the celebrant and deliberately released a messy rumor, so all kinds of reasons were piled up together, contributing to such a strange case, or someone was deliberately plotting." In short, the limelight should not be good next. ”

"So, whether it's you or Ah Shou, it's best to be a little more restrained recently."

However, as soon as she finished saying this, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart when she saw Zhu Ying showing a very peculiar expression. Zhu Jing, who didn't speak just now, lowered his face and asked, "Yingying, what are you two going to do out of the ordinary?" You used to do your own thing, but since you met Zhang Shou, you have become more and more bold! ”

"What's the matter with Guan Ashou!" This time, it was replaced by Jiu Niang, who was unhappy, "If everyone doesn't do anything out of line, and everyone does everything according to the rules, wouldn't it be lifeless?" If you had followed the rules at the beginning, how could you be today? Young people are already determined to forge ahead, how can they be like those bosses in the court, one by one, they stick to the old ways, and when they catch sparks, they think it is a cannon battle and make a fuss! ”

This last sentence was quite vulgar, Zhu Er still wanted to laugh when he heard it, but the eldest brother was still sitting upright, and he could only endure it.

But after the stepmother finished speaking, she glanced at him again: "Erlang can laugh if he wants to, what are you doing with it?" When your father was young, he dared to fight, dare to be angry and dare to speak, but now he is not old, so young people should be cautious! ”

Zhu Jing was so frightened by his wife that he lost his temper - Jiuniang has always been a character who has nothing to say, and when he was newly married to Yan'er, he admired him extremely for his courage and devotion to death, but when he later began to be forbearant and conservative, step by step, she gradually disagreed with her fierce temperament, and when he made a decision about the three children back then, the contradiction broke out completely.

But at this moment, he had to try to explain: "The situation is now unclear......

"Where is the situation unclear? The situation is clearest now! Everything is based on the canonization of the crown prince as the first priority, and everything else can be leaned back and ignored! Just like all the previous abolitions, as long as other places can make a big noise, then this time the matter may not really attract so many people's attention. ”

Jiuniang looked at Mrs. Tai as she spoke, and said calmly: "Besides, Yingying likes to move or not, and Ah Shou has a lot of whimsical ideas, and now it is the moment when Jiuzhangtang wants to be separated from the Guozijian, although this situation seems treacherous, it is better to be motionless than quiet, but it is not suitable for them." ”

"So, why don't you let them go. Now that Yingying's father and eldest brother have returned, the Zhu family is no longer the scene it was at the beginning, and there is no need to be afraid of anything. Moreover, in the past, Lu Xuan, who supported people to deal with the Zhu family on the one hand, and on the other hand, was actually a pioneer for others, but now he can be regarded as a person who is with Ah Shou, plus those students of Ah Shou, as well as other ...... such as Old Master Ge."

"We're not what we used to be."

Mrs. Tai didn't expect that Jiu Niang was not only radical, but even spread out some things, and couldn't help but smile bitterly at the moment. How did she not know that what her daughter-in-law said was indeed right, compared to the rumors of Zhu Jing's defeat that were spread everywhere, the father and son did not know whether they were alive or dead, and a large number of people jumped up and down in the court, as if they wanted to uproot the Zhao Guogong Mansion The momentum, now the Zhu family is simply cooking oil with flowers and flowers?

Zhu Jing is the secretary of the Ministry of War, Zhu Tingfang is directly in charge of the Nancheng Terracotta Division, and has jurisdiction over the Five Cities Terracotta Division, even the second Zhu Tingjie, who has always been out of tune, is not what it used to be. Not to mention that because of Zhu Ying's fiancΓ© Zhang Shou, a lot of help has been added to the family.

Moreover, they don't need to make splits or other measures with relatives and friends from all parties in order to prevent the emperor from being jealous, as long as the emperor still trusts the Zhu family as always, the Zhu family can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.

However, what she actually hopes is to see clearly the possible black hand behind this whole thing by keeping a low profile......

The son obviously agreed, but the daughter-in-law objected, and Mrs. Tai did not insist, so she simply asked gently: "Da Lang Erlang, you two can also talk about it." ”

Zhu Tingfang glanced at Zhu Ying, who folded his hands as if begging for himself, and finally said expressionlessly: "Grandmother, what Yingying wants to do, let her let her do it, our Zhu family has endured it for too long, and now that my father and I are back, if we can't let Yingying be herself arbitrarily, then wouldn't our father and brother be too useless?" ”

"As for Zhang Shou, as long as he can stand with Yingying, then do whatever he wants."

Zhu Er saw that his eldest brother really supported his sister clearly, and he was immediately overjoyed, even if his father glared at him, he didn't see it: "That's it, this turmoil is strange, it seems to be aimed at the celebrant supervisor, but maybe it is aimed at the emperor." My sister and brother-in-law just do their own thing, and if the noise is loud, they can also divert attention, right? ”

Second brother, you know each other!

Zhu Ying glanced at Zhu Er with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "Ah Shou said the same thing. Others think that we will be cautious and wait and see, but we don't! Since you are frank and have a clear conscience, of course you should do what you should do! The women's school is about to open in the next few days, although it is Yongping who is the president, assisted by Hong Niangzi, you can look at Yongping like today......"

"Don't teach people crookedly! Although Mrs. Hong has knowledge, she definitely can't suppress her, I have to watch. But it's not enough to just look at it...... Grandmother, mother, can you two also write a book and talk about the female virtues that are different from the female virtues in the fourth female book? ”

Of course, these words were very awkward, but Mrs. Tai and Jiuniang understood it at once. The two glanced at each other, and Jiu Niang said relatively cautiously: "Yingying, do you plan to get involved in the matter of female studies?" Although you said that you had a fight with Yongping today......"

"It's not a matter of quarrels, it's that I'm worried now that she's instilling her own set of utilitarian things into others. At first I thought she was a good fit to do this, but now I think she's too self-righteous! ”

"Grandmother, mother, Ban Zhao wrote "The Female Commandment", Empress Changsun wrote "The Female Rules", Song Ruoxin wrote "The Analects of Women", and even Empress Zetian pretended to ask someone to make up "The Biography of the Daughters" and "Ancient and Modern Inner Fan"...... Throughout the ages, these talented women and virtuous queens have written a lot of books, but they can really preside over housework at home, teach husbands and children, and do these things work? ”

"Grandmother, mother, even if she is a well-read and hyphenated eunuch, a famous noblewoman, she has been sensitive and thoughtful since she was a child, so the more she thinks about it, the narrower she becomes; There are also those who are stupid and hold ancient books wholeheartedly, just thinking that they can harmonize their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law by doing it, and the husband and wife are single-minded; There are even those who are full of wealth but don't know how to take care of housework, and finally fall into the middle of the family......"

"A scholar's reading is not just a reading of scripture history. When a woman reads, how can she only learn those things like women's virtues? ”

Seeing that Mrs. Tai was hesitant, but Jiu Niang looked at her thoughtfully, Zhu Ying suddenly smiled and said, "Didn't Ah Shou use Grandpa Ge's reputation to write books there?" If you don't want to write it, I'll write it, and hang your name, how about it? ”

At this moment, in the huge Qing'an Hall, there was no sound. Zhu Er really wanted to go up and touch Zhu Ying's forehead to see if people had a fever and were talking nonsense - just his sister, who has hated reading since he was a child, and it is very easy to memorize poems and endorsements, but he always has a sad face and bargains with the teacher, today he would actually say that he would write a book in person?

Even Zhu Tingfang couldn't help but glance outside, wondering if the sun was coming out again at this time. Zhu Jing was even more speechless and tugged at his most cherished beard, until he tore off two of them, and then he suddenly came back to his senses.

And Mrs. Tai saw that Jiu Niang was already stunned there, so she smiled dumbly and said, "Yingying, are you sure you can really write?" ”

"If I don't know, I'll ask Ah Shou! Who asked him to say to me, women in the world, the so-called female virtue for a long time! Zhu Ying said it confidently, and then raised her eyebrows and said, "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have thought that Yongping's current mentality is not suitable for presiding over women's schools...... Anyway, I'm not afraid that she will be unhappy this time, if she has the ability, she and I will fight in the ring! ”

Even if he wasn't sure if Zhang Shou was trying to make Zhu Ying happy, hearing Zhu Ying's words, Mrs. Tai's last worry disappeared. She completely forgot that the outside world was already treacherous and the storm was about to rise, so she nodded happily and said, "Okay, in this case, I will lend you the names of your mother and me, and when you finish writing, you will print it in our name." ”

"Old Master Ge can rest assured and boldly let Ah Shou use their name, what is your mother and I reluctant to do?"

Seeing that Mrs. Tai agreed, Jiu Niang immediately smiled: "You can have a book to pass down without moving your fingers, why don't I want to?" Just do it, your grandmother and I have your back! ”

After receiving such encouragement and recognition, Zhu Ying was naturally elated, and went like this after saluting. And as soon as she left, Zhu Erfang said quietly: "Grandmother, mother, father, eldest brother, I said why are you here tonight?" ”

After being fooled by Zhu Ying so much, the things that I was most worried about before seemed to have been left behind, and they were all thinking about how to help Zhu Ying write a book! Thousands of years after chasing Ming'er, he now feels that his sister, who is almost uneducated and unskilled, is not going to become a good wife and mother who has written a nΓΌshu?

Of course, Zhu Ying didn't know anything about how Zhu Er was concocted by his pro-Changmen in Qing'an Hall. She walked briskly back to her boudoir, as if she didn't see Zhan Jin and Liuyin going out to play with her all day without her own resentment, and said with a smile: "Zhanjin, Liuyin, get ready, go into the palace with me tomorrow, and prepare to fight with people!" ”

Even if Zhang Shou is capable, she can't write a book of female virtue, in fact, she has already thought about it in her heart and asked the Hong family for help! With Hong's cleverness and proportion, in the name of her grandmother and mother, she should be able to accept her own ideas, right? Well, she's so smart!
