Chapter 388: Above Board!
Of course, Zhu Ying didn't believe that the second prince would change his evil and return to the right - if he really wanted to change it for the better, this guy would only change his temper and behavior, how could he care about the life and death of the eldest prince?
If the eldest prince is the kind of bitter-hearted, benevolent and generous eldest brother, it is almost the same, but the eldest prince has always been the kind of villain who is wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, and narrow-minded, and the second prince will not forgive him if he forgives anyone!
Not to mention the so-called correction of the second prince, thinking that Lu Sanlang, a dead fat man, had changed his ways, she suspected that people were pretending, and later found out that this kid was really talented, and even Zhang Shou was full of praise, and later the head of the Jiuzhang Hall was even more deserved, and she gradually corrected her deep-rooted understanding.
At this moment, she hooked her hand and motioned for Lu Sanlang to follow her into the door, and saw that the entourage took down the silk from the car that followed, she motioned for them to send the silk in first, and then walked slowly with Lu Sanlang, saying as she walked: "Where did you hear about these things?" After your father resigned from the Ministry of War, wasn't he in a hurry to sacrifice wine at this public school? ”
It was anxious and busy, but it was widely praised, especially the seven words that can change Lu Shangshu by knowing mistakes, which were widely circulated in the capital. No one thinks that he is afraid of your father, so he avoids his position and begs to go, but they all think that he has the courage to admit his mistakes, the courage to do things, and the future. ”
The little fat man smiled triumphantly as he spoke: "As for whether he is really afraid of your father, only he knows." Besides, he is tired of the military department, especially if there is a Zhao Shilang who is eyeing him every day, it is better to jump out of the troubled waters of the military department and go alone. Fortunately, he is still in the military department, but Zhao Shilang has not been able to go that step at all. ”
"He is much worse than my father, he was sent to Guizhou to participate in politics, and he didn't even get a political envoy! But the news was indeed handed to me by my father, and he has many old protégés, not to mention ......"
Lu Sanlang looked around, then his head tilted in the direction of Zhu Ying, and he lowered his voice and said: "Shoufu Jiang Ge's recent situation is very bad, and those people under Confucius University are clamoring outside, saying that he is putting the responsibility of framing the heroes on my father, and he can't go to the position of power." Wu Ge Lao didn't hum or ha, but the emperor promoted Zhang Daxue last year, and he often had a hard top with him. ”
"So before the emperor could easily express his position, now Jiang Ge Lao is actually supporting the eldest prince there, holding on to your eldest brother and little gentleman. But at this time, he couldn't be guilty of holding the elder, and the royal family should not be humiliated, and even complained that the emperor should not have been moved by strange weapons and tricks, and sent the eldest prince to Cangzhou, so that people couldn't withstand the temptation and made a big mistake...... Isn't this pouring salt into the emperor's wounds? ”
"The emperor's temper seems to be good over the years, but can this kind of person who relies on the old and sells the old not hate it?"
"Hmph, that's old-fashioned!"
Zhu Ying also disliked Jiang Ge Lao. In fact, none of these noble disciples in the capital, the golden branches and jade leaves, liked Jiang Ge Lao, because once they met him on the road, they would be severely reprimanded. Even Zhu Ying came back from a jubilant safari, she had already made way for people on horseback, but she was still stopped by Jiang Ge's old training in the sedan chair.
It's just that Miss Zhu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she directly ridiculed each other, taking a certain son of the Jiang family who hit and injured pedestrians on the street as an example, and made Jiang Ge almost unable to get off the stage on the street. Afterwards, Jiang Ge's unlucky grandson was beaten by a board and couldn't get out of bed for a month, so Zhu Ying and the Jiang family's old lady and daughter-in-law became mortal enemies.
But Zhu Ying doesn't care about the kind of woman who is short-sighted and ignorant. After she scolded at the moment, she saw that the small courtyard where the Wu family usually lived and met guests was about to arrive, so she immediately made a silent gesture to Lu Sanlang, and then shouted happily: "Aunt Wu, Ah Shou has brought you something, and Lu Sanlang has also come to visit you!" ”
Lu Saburo couldn't help but look sideways. Didn't you come yourself? Didn't you say that it was omitted like this? Before he got married, he regarded himself as the Zhang family, and he couldn't find a second such future daughter-in-law in the capital......
As soon as he entered the courtyard door, he saw that Wu had come out of the house, and was pulling Zhu Ying at the door of the room to say something with a smile, that posture was really like a mother and daughter, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute each other.
Originally, he just planned to come to the door to salute and comfort the Wu family a few words before leaving, but now that he met Zhu Ying by chance, he didn't have so many taboos.
After following into the house, he adhered to the principle of reporting good news and not bad news, and only claimed that Zhang Shou had been praised by the officials and people in Cangzhou, and did not mention anything about the criticism of the courtiers. Zhu Ying is even more exaggerated, relying on her own trip to Cangzhou, she said that the important town by the canal is good with good flowers and rice, and the people are simple, as if it is a more wonderful place than the capital.
Wu didn't know that the two of them were comforting themselves, the news outside was intermittent, sometimes good and sometimes bad, and Zhang Shou didn't mention the hardships when he sent the letter back, and she could only choose to believe him. At this time, she didn't ask too much, however, when Zhu Ying unfolded the horse and showed off Zhang Shou's eyes, she couldn't help laughing.
Ah Shou eats with a picky mouth, but he doesn't have much vision for things like clothes and jewelry. He likes bright colors, and says that I look good in royal blue rose purple, but he himself always likes to wear all kinds of cyan colors, and says that this combination is simple and effortless, and does not need to use his brain. Yingying, you have a good eye, don't give him a lot of money in the future, otherwise he can really wear the green one for the rest of his life! ”
Zhu Ying almost didn't laugh out loud, and suddenly remembered Zhang Shou's past of drinking tea and cows.
She nodded with a smile and said, "I know, I'll prepare his clothes for him in the future!" must let his elegant ink landscape become a magnificent and gorgeous court painting! ”
Lu Sanlang was originally taking a cup of tea in his hand and sipping it slowly, but as soon as he heard Zhu Ying's words, he couldn't help but spray it directly. He imagined Zhang Shou like those rich children in the market to paint Zhu Fu powder and a golden crown and brocade robe, and he shuddered for a while, and hurriedly said loudly: "No, Mr. Xiao is a humble gentleman, or take elegance first, elegance first!" ”
Before Wu could speak, Zhu Ying had already glanced at Lu Sanlang with his head sideways: "I'm just joking, but I really take it seriously, why are you so boring?" Besides, just like Ah Shou, he looks good in anything! ”
Seeing that the Wu family was also amused, Lu Sanlang was suddenly stunned. Knowing that he was just doing his duty on behalf of all the students of Zhang Shou, there was no need to stay longer, so he sat for a while and got up to leave. But when he went out, he saw Zhu Ying glaring at him.
Although he couldn't get in touch with her heart, he thought about it for a while when he went out and decided that Zhu Ying had something to look for him, so he decided to wait outside first. Sure enough, not long after he waited, he saw a Zhu family guard he had seen before hurriedly come out, arched his hand and said to him: "Third son, the eldest lady said that please wait for her in the old place." ”
This sounds very ambiguous at first glance, after all, whoever can name the old place must have a deep relationship, and a man and a woman have a deep relationship...... Hehe, then it's easy to go short. However, Lu Saburo thought that he was one of the wild bees and butterflies flying around Miss Zhu at the beginning—even if it was a pretend—so he didn't have to think about it to know where Zhu Ying wanted him to go.
Well, it was not anywhere else, it was the old lady who secretly took out the dowry and gave him a two-entry courtyard because she favored him as a young son. In the past, he generously took it out as a meeting place for many gentlemen. Because there were so many people, the paper couldn't hold the fire, and after his two brothers found out, they stabbed in front of their father Lu Juan, and the result was ......
He was beaten by his father and hated iron but not steel, but his two elder brothers didn't get a good deal, and they were all trained by his mother so hard that they almost didn't let him in!
At this moment, thinking of this place where the prodigal son has been thrown aside since he turned back, Lu Saburo actually feels very intimate. He immediately hurried with a few guards to clean up, but when he found a place and entered the door, he found that the yard was not overgrown with weeds as he had imagined, and when he entered the house again, he did not see the slightest sign of dust.
When he came to stay here and asked, he learned that his mother sent someone to clean and tidy up regularly, and the little fat man finally couldn't help but mutter: "Only a mother is good in the world, and a child with a mother is a treasure...... "Grandpa Taizu taught Grandpa Taizong is really a good song......
Not to mention how many guards Lu Sanlang's cute singing scared away, when he poured two basins of well water on the bluestone ground under the grape trellis behind him, poured melons and fruits, and then set up two rattan recliners, and after he comfortably occupied one of them and closed his eyes to recuperate, he didn't know how long it took, he suddenly felt a cold on his face.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that Zhu Ying was standing a few steps away, his fingers still poked in a bowl of water, obviously he was just dipping his face in water!
He quickly sat up straight, and even wondered if he wanted to sigh that he had come to this place to meet again after a year, but he felt that if he said this, he might be beaten by Zhu Ying and scolded him for deliberately molesting. When he was hesitating, he saw Zhu Ying smile and said, "I wanted to say it before, your house is really good." It's been empty for a long time, don't you think it's a pity? ”
Seeing that Lu Sanlang was a little stunned, she smiled and said, "I heard that you are seeking funding for the classmates of Jiuzhangtang from all aspects, especially those who went to help Wang Datou, and you insisted on asking them for a piece of rice from the imperial court." But that's not enough, aren't you quite business-minded? Why don't you take someone who is interested and do something more? ”
"You must know that Zhang Chen, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, one in Cangzhou and the other in Xingtai, are all quite impressive, but you can't show your fists and feet under the noses of a large number of people in the capital. You're pretty good alone, pull a few classmates, what's not to do? This is the place that can also be used as a school club for the Nine Chapters. Don't you want to enroll students in the future of Jiuzhangtang? ”
Lu Saburo stared at Zhu Ying with a strange face, and suddenly laughed.
There are always some people who say that Zhu Ying embroiders a pillow with a bag of grass, but in fact, they themselves are straw bales!
So, he nodded sincerely: "As the first fasting chief after the reopening of Jiuzhangtang, of course I will plan well and do a good job!" It's just that you also have to persuade Mr. Xiao, don't keep spending it in Cangzhou, the students of Guozijian are his biggest backing! No matter how good Cangzhou is, he won't be a magistrate, and besides, he doesn't want to tear the soil and seal the king, right? ”
If he says this rebellious thing to others, he will definitely be full of heads, and maybe someone will tell him that his words and deeds are rebellious, however, Zhu Ying didn't think it was wrong, but nodded very approvingly: "You are right." I'll say it to Ashou! ”
Before Lu Sanlang sighed that the eldest lady who was unreasonable in the past was now reasonable, he was frightened by Zhu Ying's next two sentences.
"Lu San Fatty, do you think we can think of a way to pull that annoying old man Jiang off the horse?"
Although Lu Sanlang was still complaining about Jiang Ge Lao just now, when it really came to this topic at this time, what he felt was not eagerness to try, but scalp numbness. After all, it is a top court tycoon whose forces are intertwined in the DPRK, his protégés are all over the world, and he has been in office for more than 30 years! Didn't you see that Zhu Tingfang's mentor Liu Zhiyuan was driven down by this?
Even his father, Lu Juan, once had to look up to people and didn't dare to be contemptuous, and even because of a moment of greed, he had to go up and charge for others - although people are also in the imperial history. But strictly speaking, it was the enemy that his father had to look up to!
He took a deep breath, and then said in a low voice: "The goal must be realistic, even if the little gentleman is here, he will not approve of our recklessness." ”
Zhu Ying suddenly said unhappily: "Who said that you have to be tough?" The emperor already hates the old man surnamed Jiang, and what we have to do now is not to smash black bricks behind people's backs, but to stand up and stand up with people in a dignified manner! ”
She didn't care what kind of shocked expression Lu Saburo's chubby face was at this moment, and raised her arms and shouted: "We just want to directly expose the face of the old man surnamed Jiang!" Let's just say that he only maintains the dignity of the prince and doesn't care about the life and death of the people, just because he used to be the master of the eldest prince and the second prince, so he doesn't want to take on the responsibility of teaching the unpunished! ”
"He was the master of the eldest prince and the second prince, am I not mistaken?"
Lu Sanlang was almost shocked, and said a little stupidly at this time: "He has taught the eldest prince and the second prince, but he hasn't taught them for many days, and besides, Patriarch Ge has actually taught them for two days......"
"Grandpa Ge is the emperor's teacher, and the generation of the eldest prince and the second prince is not right, it doesn't count!" Zhu Ying said domineeringly: "In short, Old Man Jiang is selfish, that is, he has a loss of private morality, that is, he is selfish and forgetful, and he is not worthy of morality!" Anyway, I and the family surnamed Jiang are mortal enemies, you give me a look at the back, I'll go ask a few people to come out now, and shout this on the spot! ”
My aunt, this is a human life!
Seeing Zhu Ying just leave, Lu Sanlang was about to go crazy. Everyone is a black hand, smashing black bricks, auntie, you want to come openly? Do your father, mother, grandmother, and brother all know? Have you consulted with them? Come back quickly, little sir, if you don't come back, no one will look down on this aunt who is going to run away...... I...... I can only hurry up to Zhu's house to report the news!
