Inside the Lin Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lin Qianqian is more nostalgic now, and he is very careful in his daily life. Lin Yanchao helped Lin Qianqian to the backyard to look at the flowers and trees for a while, and then returned to the room.
Lin Qianqian said: "Brother Shou's wedding date should also be set, yesterday Mrs. Huang came to listen to us for the Zhen Mansion." ”
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Didn't you say that after a good year? Why is it so anxious again. By the way, the lady of this Zhen Mansion has not always looked down on her cousin, and suddenly came here to urge marriage, there must be a reason. ”
Lin Qianqian smiled and said: "If you really can't hide anything from Xianggong, didn't the Holy Lord just reward Xianggong to recommend a family to be the son of the country?" This Mrs. Huang inquired about me, although she didn't say it explicitly, but in fact, she was also inquiring for the Zhen family, saying that if Brother Shou made up for the shadow and entered the national prison, then it would be a good thing for the marriage between the two families, and it would be more right, and Mr. Zhen would be happy to say it. ”
After Lin Qianqian finished speaking, he saw that Lin Yanchao suddenly stopped talking, and asked, "Xianggong is not happy because of this?" ”
Lin Yanchao saw Lin Qianqian asking, smiled and said, "It's not okay to be unhappy." ”
Lin Qianqian said: "I think this Zhen family is inevitably too lenient, if he wants Brother Shou to make up for the shade, then he might as well mention it again, but now it is a bit of a coercion." ”
Lin Yanchao said to Lin Qianqian: "It is normal for the Zhen family to see this, but after all, the daughter of the Zhen family has not passed the door, and the two sides are not in-laws, so it is inappropriate to meddle in my family's family affairs." ”
Lin Qianqian lowered his head and said, "This is also." ”
"I have taken this shadow to heart. At present, his cousin's boy test is imminent, and with his cousin's temperament, if he knows that he can enter the national prison without going through the scientific examination, he will definitely slack his ambition to study and forge ahead. Therefore, I am ready to hide it from him first, let him study hard, whether he is in the future or not, it will be good for him to sharpen his mind and study, if he really fails the exam, and then let him make up for prison, so that he knows to cherish it. ”
Lin Qianqian was pleasantly surprised and said: "It turns out that Xianggong has taken this matter to heart, and even I think that Xianggong has not mentioned this matter because ......"
Lin Yanchao laughed and said, "Are you saying that I still remember the dirty things I had with my aunt and uncle in the past, and I refuse to give this benefit to my cousin?" ”
Lin Qianqian smiled and said: "I do think so, but when I see Xianggong say this, I am relieved." ”
Lin Yanchao smiled.
Then Lin Qianqian said again: "It's just that this Zhen family is indeed a little snobbish." ”
Lin Yanchao said: "No one is perfect, and after all, we will be the in-laws in the future, let's bear with it and treat others with leniency." ”
After talking for a while, Lin Qianqian was also a little tired, so Lin Yanchao helped her to rest, and then asked Cuizhu to serve Lin Qianqian.
After Lin Yanchao came out of Lin Qian's shallow room, he saw Chen Jichuan serving in the courtyard.
Lin Yanchao nodded at Chen Jichuan and asked him to follow him to the study to speak.
When he arrived at the study, Chen Jichuan said: "Master, this is already arranged for the scholar, and his subordinates gave him twenty taels of silver, and watched him get on the sea ship and return to his hometown in Shandong." ”
This scholar Yu is the person Chen Jichuan installed in the West Garden Literary Association.
Lin Yanchao heard that he was on the boat, so no matter how powerful Hong Mingqi was, he would not chase him to Shandong to track down this person.
Hong Mingqi wanted to rely on the attack on the official sedan chair to find Lin Yanchao's handle, which was almost more difficult than ascending to the sky.
Lin Yanchao nodded after hearing this and said, "It's okay like this, it saves me from worrying." This is quite effective in Shusheng's work, and told him that I will still use him after Hong Ming becomes a scholar. ”
Chen Jichuan said with a smile: "The master is the champion of today, and the future is limitless, of course Yu Shusheng is willing to follow the master." ”
Lin Yanchao said: "As for the others, although they are not directly involved in this matter, they told them to be my eyeliner for the time being, and I will still use them when something happens." ”
Chen Jichuan said yes, and then said: "Master, I heard that Hong Mingqi not only attacked the Xiyuan Literary Society, but even several other literary societies in the capital that taught Yongjia's learning, or the elegant collection of scholars, were also raided by officers and soldiers, and they were all brought back to the Criminal Department. ”
Lin Yanchao squinted slightly and said, "It seems that this surnamed Hong is using this matter to fight with me!" ””
Lin Yanchao pondered that Hong Mingqi was the first political enemy he encountered on his career as an official.
The level of this political opponent is not low.
In the official position, Lin Yanchao and Hong Mingqi are both positive six products, and everyone cultivates the same.
Lin Yanchao entered the Zhida, and Hong Mingqi served in the Criminal Department, and Lin Yanchao was a step higher in the realm.
But Hong Mingqi holds real power and can use the power of the Criminal Department, while Lin Yanchao has no power to be involved in politics, as if the other party has a weapon, and Lin Yanchao is empty-handed.
In terms of connections, Lin Yanchao has the division of Shen Shixing, as well as the same year, fellow villagers, but Lin Yanchao's official time is still short, and these fellow villagers in the same year can't help much.
As for Hong Mingqi's background, he was inferior to Lin Yanchao in terms of teacher and the same year. But he has been an official for many years, and he has accumulated some contacts anyway, and they can all be used.
In short, there are pros and cons for both sides.
Lin Yanchao and Chen Jichuan discussed for a while. Then it's time for dinner.
When I arrived at the dining room, a maid came to say goodbye.
"Madame is tired, don't come to dinner, please use it first."
Lin Yanchao said: "Tell the kitchen stove not to go out, and wait for Mrs. to wake up and make some meals that suit Mrs. Lady's appetite." ”
"Yes."
As soon as the maid left, a scholar came and said, "The eldest master said that he was going to be busy with the county exam in two months, and he was working hard to let people bring the food to his study." ”
Lin Yanchao was puzzled: "Are you really working hard?" ”
The subordinates on the side said: "In the past few months, the eldest master has really worked hard. ”
Lin Yanchao said happily: "That's really good, let the kitchen prepare more meals and send them over." ”
"Yes."
After several people left, Lin Yanchao said to Xu Huobo, who was standing beside him, and Tao Wangling: "Come, let's go to the table." ”
"Yes."
After a few people were seated, the people served the hot food.
The style of five dishes and two soups, there are meat and vegetarian, exquisite and exquisite, but enough. The servants stepped forward to fill the food for a few people, served soup, and then withdrew.
Lin Yanchao drank cabbage and tofu soup first, but saw Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling looked reluctant to put down chopsticks.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help asking, "Is this food not to your taste?" ”
Xu Huobo and Tao Wangling said: "Teacher, that's not the case. ”
Lin Yanchao saw that the two of them wanted to speak and stopped: "That is, there is something to tell me, just say it." ”
Xu Huobo glanced at Tao Wangling and said, "Teacher, the disciples have heard a lot of rumors these days. ”
"What's the wind?"
Xu Huobo was hesitating how to speak, and Tao Wangling on the side couldn't help but say: "Teacher, after Hong Mingqi checked the Xiyuan Literary Society, he also seized several literary societies in the capital that studied Yongjia's learning. ”
"At present, Yongjia's learning has a climate, and if it prevails in the future, the teacher is a great Confucian who inherits this learning in Zhongxing. This surnamed Hong in the name of banning lectures, it is really revenge, if he succeeds, the people dare not learn this Yongjia, then the teacher's hard work is not in vain? ”
Lin Yanchao listened to Tao Wangling's words, and suddenly said, "It turns out that you are worried about this. ”
Xu Huobo also said: "Teacher, students are also studying Yongjia in the past few days. Yongjia's learning coincides with what the teacher teaches on a daily basis. The disciple felt that Yongjia's theory was the strength of both Confucian and Legalist, and there was no shortness of the two schools, which was actually the study of the world. If the teacher cut off the scriptures from the hands of the sages because of Lord Hong's intention to retaliate, wouldn't it be the misfortune of the world's scholars and the misfortune of my great Ming. ”
The two disciples looked anxious, and Lin Yanchao was happy to see it, these two disciples themselves did not have a white sect.
Tao Wangling said: "Teacher, if you stop lecturing, how can you block the mouths of the people, and now Hong Ming is taking revenge with his own interests, not only banning the Xiyuan Literary Society, but also cracking down on many literary societies that teach Yongjia's learning, and hundreds of scholars have been arrested and put in prison. Now the Shilin is very indignant, and the people's grievances are boiling, which shows that this is an unpopular move. ”
"Hong Mingqi has offended so many scholars because of this, it is really a stupid move, if the teacher takes this opportunity to contact the government and the opposition to hand over the book to the saint and impeach Hong Mingqi, then the civil scholars will definitely respond to support, and it will be easy to bring down this traitor at that time."
Tao Wangling said very impassionedly.
When the two disciples debated with Lin Yanchao before, Lin Yanchao was still full of joy.
But hearing Tao Wangling say this, his face sank.
Lin Yanchao pondered for a while and asked, "Who taught you this?" ”
Tao Wangling was stunned.
Lin Yanchao immediately looked at Xu Huobo and asked, "Where did you and Wangling go today, so to speak?" ”
Xu Huobo saw Lin Yanchao's expression, and he didn't know what Tao Wangling said wrong, so he could only say: "Today, fellow villagers have a small gathering in Yazhulou, and Wangling and I have gone." ”
"So that's what they said on your behest?" Lin Yanchao asked.
Xu Huobo said: "It's not what they said, it's actually everyone's opinion, and the two of us also deeply agree." ”
Lin Yanchao shook his head and said: "How can the plan be based on everyone's opinion, this statement is really wrong for you and for me." ”
Tao Wangling, Xu Huobo was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Teacher, what do you say?" ”
Lin Yanchao said solemnly: "Hong Mingqi used the matter of banning lectures to prohibit folk scholars from teaching Yongjia's learning, and his intention was not to attack Yongjia's learning. Instead, he used the attack on Yongjia's learning to force me to mess up. If I go to the book, I will fall into the trap of Hong Mingqi. ”
"It was not Hong Mingqi who was impeached, but the imperial court decree, and the majesty of Yuanfu Zhang Jiangling. The more the folk scholars supported me, the more Zhang Jiangling was jealous of me, not only would it not help, but Yongjia's learning would still be banned, and even as a teacher, I would be dismissed because of this matter. ”
Tao Wangling and Xu Huobo were all shocked, they didn't expect the officialdom to be so dangerous, they thought that with the support of the people, Lin Yanchao could bring down Hong Mingqi, but in fact, they fell into the trap of others.
Lin Yanchao said: "If my expectations are correct, someone must have infiltrated your party and used you to deliver a message to me, so as to interfere with my judgment." ”
Tao Wangling, Xu Huobo said in his heart, the teacher really expected that it was not bad at all, and it was an unknown scholar who suggested it to them at the time of the small gathering, and everyone agreed.
If it weren't for Lin Yanchao's understanding of things, they wouldn't be taken advantage of this time, their experience was too shallow.
Tao Wangling looked remorseful.
Xu Huobo wept and said, "The teacher is the disciple's mistake. (To be continued.) )
