Chapter 973: A Chance Encounter

Facing Shen Shixing's second son Shen Yongjia, Lin Yanchao was also very helpless.

Speaking of Shen Yongjia's life experience, it is also a bit unusual.

He is the grandson-in-law of Shen Shixing's mentor and the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Shen Yongjia is the son of Shoufu Shen Shixing, and it is normal for him to marry Dong Fen, the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but the difference is that it is rumored that Shen Yongjia is rich.

At that time, Dong Fen's marriage of his granddaughter to Shen Yongjia can be described as a sensation in Sanwu.

Fan Shouji, an official in Wuzhong, recorded in his book "Quwei News" that Dong Shangshu was rich and crowned the third Wu...... Gengchen was old, and married to the son of Wumen Shen with his daughter and grandson. Collect the clothes and ornaments until they are full of three hundred. It has been displayed in the gate, and 600 women have been born, which has never been seen before.

These words are the key points in the eternal history, which shows how extravagant this wedding is, and even Sanwu, who is known for his wealth, is a sensation.

'Gengchen Sui' is the eighth year of Wanli, the year of Lin Yanchao's Jinshi, Shen Shixing, who was already a scholar of Dongge University, and his second son was 'Zong' into the Dong family.

Later, Shen Yongjia was released in August of the tenth year of Wanli.

Shen Yongjia Zhongju has become a controversy again. Because Shen Yongjia was raised in the Zhejiang Township Examination, but Shen Yongjia's hometown is from Wu County, Suzhou, and this is an impostor in the imperial examination.

At that time, Dong Fen had a lot of energy in Zhejiang, and some scholars speculated that Dong Fen opened the back door to his grandson-in-law Shen Yongjia. Historian Tan Qian unceremoniously wrote directly in "Guoyi", Shen Shixing's second son, Dong's family in Huzhou. Renwu (Wanli ten years) in Zhejiang. Or to say it privately.

After this incident caused a controversy, it was suppressed by the Shen Dong family.

But for Lin Yanchao, from the eighth year of Wanli to the tenth year of Wanli, Shen Yongjia has been 'plugging the door' in Zhejiang and has never been to Beijing, so by the end of the tenth year of Wanli, when Lin Yanchao was demoted from Beijing, the two had not met.

So it's no wonder that Shen Yongjiahui didn't recognize Lin Yanchao.

Faced with the Mu family's request to arrest Lin Yanchao and see the official.

Shen Yongjia hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Mu, don't spread this matter outside, otherwise it will insult my Shen family's reputation." If you are willing to make it clear where this post came from, I may consider letting you go. ”

Lin Yanchao secretly praised in his heart, Shen Yongjia is quite fatherly, if he changes to someone else, if he knows that he is being impersonated, he will definitely shout and kill as soon as he comes up.

This Yunnan official also praised: "Zimei is really kind, and she really has the bearing of the prime minister's family." ”

Lin Yanchao looked at the two of them and said directly: "It's okay, I also wanted to return this post to my teacher." In this case, I also asked my brother to collect it on my behalf. ”

"Teacher?"

Shen Yongjia was slightly surprised, he knew that this was the title between the lord and the protΓ©gΓ© in the officialdom.

Shen Shixing has served as the chief examiner of the township examination, the deputy examiner of the examination, and the chief examiner of the examination, so he is naturally a protΓ©gΓ© all over the world. But Shen Shixing will not post himself to his protΓ©gΓ©.

Shen Yongjia said at this time: "Brother Ren said that this post is true, then it is a disciple of my father when he was a scholar of Dongge University. But that year, my father only presided over a spring festival, and all of his protΓ©gΓ©s were from Jinshi. ”

After Shen Yongjia finished speaking, Lin Yanchao laughed left and right.

Lin Sanyuan was questioned whether he was born as a Jinshi?

Lin Yanchao also said helplessly: "This post is naturally true, I am Gengchen Kejinshi, but it's a pity that the brothers didn't have the opportunity to meet in Zhejiang back then, it's a pity." ”

Shen Yongjia nodded and said, "I see." ”

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "I am very familiar with Brother Ling, I heard that he was a Jinshi the year before last, and he was watching politics in the Criminal Department, and he didn't have time to congratulate him." By the way, my wife's body is healthy, this time I sent a few Shu brocades in Sichuan in the same year, and I happened to honor my wife when I entered Beijing. ”

Shen Yongjia saw that Lin Yanchao made the matter of the Shen Mansion clear, and immediately dispelled his doubts.

Shen Yongjia said with a smile: "It's good that Brother Ren comes to Beijing, why bother to bring anything." ”

But seeing that the two sides were as good as a family at this time, the Yunnan official stepped forward and said: "If you are from a Jinshi background, and you have been an official for five or six years, it should not be difficult to cross the river with your official post, why bother to take the post of the elder of the pavilion to the market, Brother Shen, this person has bad intentions." ”

Lin Yanchao looked at the Yunnan official and said, "This Marquis Mu, I talked to Brother Shen, what do you mean by repeatedly interjecting?" This is not Yunnan. ”

The man sneered: "It's nothing, I just can't get used to seeing you hide your head and tail." I thought I was some kind of official, and I hid it all day long, but fortunately this is not Yunnan, otherwise I would have pulled off your official skin. ”

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yanchao was furious left and right.

Yuan Keli said angrily: "Our teacher respectfully calls you Master Hou, for the sake of the Mu family guarding Yunnan for the Ming Dynasty, you don't want to be cheap and good." ”

Lin Yanchao waved his hand, signaling that Yuan Keli didn't have to quarrel with him. Then Lin Yanchao said: "Master Mu, I have resigned, and I am just entering Beijing to report my position, it doesn't matter if you respect me or not." But you are so arrogant here, so what about your Mu family in Yunnan? I'm afraid I don't even pay attention to the discipline of the imperial court. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you haven't been to Yunnan, how do you know how my Mu family is in Yunnan? If you dare to swagger, my Mu family will not spare you. ”

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Swagger? I heard that not long ago, the deputy envoy of Yunnan Province met the Duke of Qianguo and did not avoid the road, but the driver was whipped by the sergeant of the Duke of Guo. ”

When this person heard this, his color immediately changed, and he took a step back to look at Lin Yanchao again and said, "Who are you?" How do you know this? ”

This person is Mu Rui, the son of the current Duke of Qianguo. Because of the big defeat of the Burmese army this time, Mu Rui's father had some self-contained military exploits and whipped the deputy envoy of Yunnan who refused to avoid the road.

This matter was reported to the Son of Heaven by the deputy envoy of the Inspectorate, and Mu Rui went to Beijing this time to deal with the matter.

In the face of his questioning, Lin Yanchao smiled and didn't say anything, but Mu Rui was already afraid of this person.

"Who the hell are you?" Mu Rui has no confidence at the moment.

Lin Yanchao shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that Marquis Mu, think about how to explain it in front of Your Majesty." ”

Mu Rui was covered in sweat when he heard this.

Shen Yongjia saw Lin Yanchao with a few words, and knocked out the majesty of the unstoppable prince of Mu Wangfu, and his heart was suddenly powerful. Although this Mu family is a duke, because of the town of Yunnan, it is no different from the king, and others call it Mu Wangfu.

In front of this Mu family, he was also careful in his words, and he didn't want to offend the other party in the slightest. The young man in front of him was not a few years older than himself, but why was he so powerful.

At this time, someone outside said: "Master, the Jiang Governor of Xuzhou is asking to see you outside." ”

Of course, this old man is for Shen Yongjia.

Shen Yongjia immediately said: "Then don't open the door and welcome in." ”

As soon as the door opened, Shen Yongjia greeted him and said, "The student has seen Jiangfutai. ”

The prefect of Najiang is more than forty years old, and there are many public servants left and right, he smiled and helped Shen Yongjia up and said: "Shen Gongzi is really a dragon and phoenix among people, this time he will be proud of entering Beijing, and then he will be connected with his father and brother, which is another good story." ”

Shen Yongjia said: "I really don't dare to be, I don't know what Jiangfutai is doing here to find students?" ”

Governor Jiang pinched his beard at the moment, and said with righteousness: "I heard that someone took Xiangye's post and pretended to be someone from Xiangfu to swagger through the market. How can such a thing happen in Xuzhou, if Xiangye's reputation is slightly flawed, isn't it the sin of someone in my Jiang, this matter should be investigated and dealt with immediately, Jiang will be severely punished if he encounters such a treacherous person under his rule! ”

Shen Yongjia hurriedly said: "I don't want to alarm Jiangfutai, this matter is just a misunderstanding, and now I have almost asked clearly." ”

"Ask clearly?" Governor Jiang thought that Shen Yongjia was just a prevarication, and immediately said: "Shen Gongzi doesn't need to be polite, this is a matter within the government's responsibility." ”

Shen Yongjia hurriedly said: "This matter will be solved by the students, and I really don't dare to bother Jiang Futai." ”

Governor Jiang saw that Shen Yongjia said resolutely, so he said: "Since Shen Gongzi said so, this government will not ask." It's okay, the official business of the government retired first, and after Shen Gongzi entered Beijing, please say hello to the elder on behalf of Jiang. ”

Shen Yongjia smiled: "Of course. ”

Governor Jiang nodded, and was about to leave, but he happened to glance at Lin Yanchao.

Since Lin Yanchao entered the Jiang Governor's Mansion, he has been standing silently on the side and not speaking. Jiang Zhifu's eyes swept over, but the two looked at each other.

Governor Jiang was about to leave the post station, but stopped at this time. He was stunned at first, and then immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "Alas, isn't this Brother Zonghai? What wind brought you here? ”

Immediately, Governor Jiang glanced at Shen Yongjia, and then said with a smile: "I understand, my brother and Shen Gongzi made an appointment to meet in Xuzhou, and then enter Beijing together, right?" Brother Zong Hai was the first in the state capital this time, and he was ordered to enter Beijing, not to mention Henan, our officials in Huaixu were also shocked, after Jiang heard the news, he was always happy for Brother Zong Hai in his heart! Hahaha! ”

After speaking, the Jiang Governor's Mansion was a series of long laughs, and the laughter was extremely exaggerated, ringing like a bell, and even the tiles seemed to vibrate.

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "This time I was ordered to enter Beijing, and I was in a hurry on the way, and I didn't dare to disturb the place with grace, otherwise I would have come to the boundary of Xuzhou, and I should catch up with Brother Jiang." ”

At this moment, Shen Yongjia said with a surprised and happy face: "It turns out that Brother Ren is today's Wenzong, a world-famous scholar!" ”

Mu Rui on the side also looked incredulous, and only after a long time did he come to his senses and said, it turned out that this person was Lin Sanyuan, the confidant of the Son of Heaven, and Shen Shixing's proud protΓ©gΓ© No wonder he was so arrogant and domineering, and there was no one in his eyes, but how did he know about his father's whipping and checking the deputy envoy?

Lin Yanchao smiled and said to Shen Yongjia: "Mr. doesn't dare to be it, let's call Lin a certain brother." ”

Lin Yanchao said to Governor Jiang again: "This time I went to Beijing with the teacher's post, although there was a bit of a misunderstanding, but it was also a mistake to meet Brother Daozuo. ”

Governor Jiang understood the ins and outs, and said with a smile at the moment: "That's really a coincidence, it's no wonder that Brother Zonghai is reluctant to make a noise, my brother has been dormant for three years, this time he is edicted to enter Beijing, and the Son of Heaven will be summoned alone, and he will worship at that time." Under such a limelight, my brother did the opposite, and this kind of indifference and humility is really the demeanor of a famous minister. Jiang is really admired, admired! ”

Jiang Zhifu said this very loudly, and after looking around, the public who came with him all gave a thumbs up and praised him.

And when Mu Rui on the side heard the words 'call alone', he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

This time the Mu family's affairs are not small, if Lin Yanchao holds a grudge and says a few bad words when the Son of Heaven summons him, then he is not miserable.
