Chapter 504: It's up to you!

If the character of the third prince is a bit forward-looking and timid, then the character of the fourth prince is to talk about it regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one. Therefore, even if he was facing the world's celebrities invited by his father at this time, the little guy was still fearless, and after he finished speaking, he even had a straightforward attitude.

And at this time, seeing Yue Shanchang's desperate and casual appearance, Zhang Shou laughed and said, "Where did the fourth prince hear that someone was expelled from the door wall by Yue Shanchang?" The guy you're talking about is still in my house, he didn't say that. ”

Yue Shanchang was a little caught off guard by the fourth prince's questioning just now, but he could only pretend to be calm, but as soon as Zhang Shou said it at this time, he finally couldn't help but change his color. Zhang Shou actually contained Fang Qing? Why is that? In order to chase to the end? Or is it for something else?

The fourth prince's eyes also widened at this time: "People are in the teacher's house? Then why didn't Liu Feng tell me! ”

At this time, Liu Feng, who was standing in the corner of the main hall, was almost mad. Fourth prince, you are so dignified to squeeze this Yue Mountain Chief, what are you selling me for? I just followed the holy order to inquire about the discussion of Yue Shanchang's two students on the side of the servants of Yashe, so I knew that Fang Qing, who had scolded the three princes, was expelled from Zhaoming Academy, but I didn't know that people were recruited by Zhang Shou when they turned their heads!

And Zhang Shou saw that the emperor looked sideways at Liu Feng, and the Qianqing Palace steward was eager to bury his head in the cracks in the ground, so he coughed lightly and said, "Do you want to know the fourth prince, why is Fang Qing in my house?" ”

Seeing that the fourth prince immediately forgot about the trivial problem of betraying Liu Feng - people are not people who can see the faces of their father's close servants, he quickly nodded again and again, and he smiled and said that Song Juren went out to sell sugar water in a small cart but ran into Fang Qing, of course, he skipped Song Juren's words about scolding Fang Qing, and only said that because of the friendship of fellow villagers in the same year, he picked up the depressed Fang Qing.

Then, he said that Fang Qing mistook people for wealthy family slaves on the street before, so Song Juren was chased by dogs all the way with him, and after he came back, he had a fight in front of him.

When he said that the fourth master of Hua brought the frightened rich man Li San'er to his home to apologize, the fourth prince was already squatting on the ground with a smile and pounding Zhang Shou's handrail, completely forgetting what the occasion was now.

And although Yue Shanchang tried his best to maintain his composure at this time, Fang Qing and Song Juren's actions really broke through the bottom limit of what he could imagine.

Especially when he thought that Fang Qing was the impulsive and reckless character he had been used to for so many years, he felt that his face was feverish, and he felt more and more that Zhang Shou's acceptance of Fang Qing could not be a coincidence, but had been premeditated.

As for the emperor, he was also amused by Zhang Shou's scene at this time. Especially when he thought that the cheap-mouthed Song Juren was also chased by a dog, and he ran all the way until his shoes fell off, he felt very relieved, as if even Princess Yongping's breath came out together.

"These two are really living treasures...... Zhang Shou, you really dare to contain anyone! ”

"Song Juren is because Yingying likes the sugar water he makes, and his identity is exposed, the Song family can't wait to tie him up, a maverick, so I have to give him a place to live. As for Fang Qing......" Zhang Shou shrugged his shoulders and said very casually, "Anyway, Song Juren picked him up, one more is not much, and besides, his room and board expenses are also earned by himself." ”

As he spoke, he smiled and said: "Song Juren forcibly detained him by his side, and then gave him the money to start work, then I will be the landlord who rents a house for others to live in." However, the fourth prince, don't talk about hearsay, Fang Qing didn't say that he was expelled from the wall, he only felt that he was talking nonsense and affecting his teachers and classmates. He had now come to his senses that he had been prejudiced. ”

"A noble son from a poor family, a rich family raises a beautiful child, this is just a common saying, not a universal truth. Therefore, he regretted it very much and felt ashamed of Yue Shanchang's teaching for many years. ”

Although Zhang Shou seemed to be speaking for himself in and out of his words, Yue Shanchang only wanted to end this summons that made him sit on pins and needles at this time. He took a light breath, and was about to find a way to find an excuse to retire, when he only heard the emperor cough and said, "Shiro is not in shape, Yue Shanchang should not be like a child." Moreover, listening to what Zhang Shou said, this Fang Qing is just stunned. ”

The emperor laughed and said indifferently: "Everyone has it when they are young and frivolous, and a young man who has not been deeply involved in the world is just impulsive nonsense, and there is nothing to care about. Besides, Zhang Shou had already punished that kid in the best way, that is, to let Song Juren's living treasure take people to the streets and alleys to endure hardships. ”

Speaking of this, he glared at the fourth prince sternly: "Shiro too, he is obsessed with a trivial matter, and even questioned the master in front of me, how did you learn this rule?" Go back and punish copying the discourse twenty times! ”

The fourth prince suddenly wailed, but the smile on his face betrayed his mood at this time. Obviously, the child is in a good mood at this time, very good...... Being able to know that the guy who scolded his third brother has been frustrated again and again, and he is being tossed by Song Juren and monitored by Zhang Shou, he feels very relieved and relieved.

And the emperor, who saw his mood, immediately sent this young son away without hesitation, and then said to Yue Shanchang, who was sincerely afraid of getting up and apologizing: "It's just such a little thing, Yue Qing doesn't have to take it on his body." Today, I suddenly summoned you and Hong Qing to enter the palace together, which is also embarrassing for you, so you will go back first to rest and recuperate, and I will summon you again in the next day. ”

"The minister never dared to take this as an embarrassment. The courtiers are shallow in their learning, lack of virtue, and they are ashamed to trust the emperor......"

After a few relatively cliché eulogies, Yue Shanchang finally retired as he wished. When he walked out of the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, he couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe his forehead, but found that his palms were already slightly shiny. Today, he was squeezed by Hong Shanchang and Zhang Shou successively, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and after leaving the palace and getting in the car, he made a decision.

Therefore, when the car left Dong'anmen, he said: "I am tired of going to the Guangdong Hall in the outer city, I want to go and see the head of the Song Dynasty." ”

When Yue Shanchang planned to use Song Juren's situation as an excuse to go to see the head of the Song Guild in the Guangdong Guild, he blew away the four princes, sent off the emperor of Yue Shanchang, and left the Qianqing Palace, but he rushed straight to the Empress Dowager of Qingning Palace. It's just that he didn't let Zhang Shou go, but directly took the people and went with him.

As for Liu Feng, who was talkative and tongue-in-cheek and provided some news to the four princes, he was punished by him to kneel in the Qianqing Palace for reflection.

Although it is not the first time that Zhang Shou has entered the palace, and Qingning Palace has also been here, he is still a little crying and laughing when he is brought into the palace like this by the emperor as if he brought his own children and nephews. At this moment, when he saw the Queen Mother who was surprised, and then listened to the emperor laughing at what he had seen before Hong Shanchang, and then said the advice he gave through the four princes, he found that the Queen Mother's expression was different.

Sure enough, the Queen Mother looked at him twice, and then asked with a smile: "Zhang Qing, fortunately, you have prevaricated that Hongshan Chief a few times today." Da Lang and Erlang designed it for you like that, and caused such a big disaster in Cangzhou that caused you to end up, you repaid your grievances with virtue this time, and actually prevented someone from shoehorning a woman to him. ”

"This is not a revenge for grievances with virtue, but just a self-treatment."

Zhang Shou had long felt that the Queen Mother might indeed be really good to Zhu Ying, but even if she didn't have any hostility towards herself—if she really had hostility, the difference in status was too far, and he wouldn't be so leisurely and comfortable—however, the Queen Mother's attitude towards him was very flat, which he had already realized when he first came to Qingning Palace.

Therefore, in front of this old woman who once listened to the government and held the world, he felt that he needed to be more cautious than facing the emperor. But prudence is prudence, and calmness is calm.

At this time, when he opened his mouth to answer, he was calm and calm, and he didn't even blink his eyelids: "Hong Shanchang said that marrying a daughter-in-law and marrying a virtuous woman, everyone knows this truth, but in fact, this is just talk on paper. As a parent, when choosing a son-in-law and daughter-in-law, if you don't want to cause a resentful couple who respects each other, you will always take into account the character of your children. ”

Zhang Shou deliberately pronounced a word of ice very seriously, as for how the emperor and the queen mother would understand it, he didn't care.

Hong Shanchang praised her daughter for being righteous, virtuous and capable, but he didn't know what the eldest prince paid the most attention to. The eldest prince is the same as the second prince, when they were comparing in the past, the two not only hoped that the future princess would have a top-notch appearance, but also a top-notch family background. As for whether it is virtuous or not, they should not care at all. ”

The Queen Mother's eyes turned sharply: "You just think that the eldest prince is unbearable?" ”

The emperor agreed to the invitation of the eldest prince and let him go to Cangzhou, what is the result, haven't you seen it yet?

Zhang Shou looked at the Queen Mother without giving in, and sneered in his heart, but his mouth was not so straightforward: "If the Hong family is not only virtuous, but also has the appearance of the country and the beauty of the moon, then maybe it can still contain the heart of the eldest prince, but if it is old and mediocre......"

He paused for a moment, and said in a flat tone: "Then the chief of Hongshan will compensate his daughter, and the queen mother and the emperor will compensate the eldest prince." ”

If Zhang Shou only said that Hong Shanchang lost his daughter, then the Queen Mother and the Emperor would inevitably feel uncomfortable even if they hated the previous sins of the eldest prince, but Zhang Shou said that they would also lose the eldest prince, and the most noble mother and son in the world were suddenly dumbfounded.

After all, even if Hong Shanchang praised his daughter as rare in heaven and on earth, as if Zhong Wuyan was reincarnated, he could let the eldest prince marry an ugly girl...... This will definitely make a couple of resentful couples. What kind of character the eldest prince has, not only Zhang Shou knows, but they also know!

If the eldest prince must be full of hatred for the emperor and the queen mother now, then after forcing people to get married, his hatred may break through the sky. Whether it is the emperor or the queen mother, although they are not afraid of what people have the ability to do to them, but if that anger is on the bride and causes any tragedy, it will really be a scandal that cannot be concealed at all!

Therefore, the Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "It would be nice if the daughter of the chief of Hongshan was both beautiful and virtuous." ”

Anyway, Chief Hong took the initiative to bring up this matter, and swore that his daughter was willing to marry, and even planned to return to his hometown to continue to preside over his academy without seeking fame and fortune, and was unwilling to become an official, so what else could he say? The eldest prince, a prince who was convicted and imprisoned, married the daughter of a famous Confucian in the world, to be honest, still climbed!

After the emperor saw that the queen mother sighed, he immediately coughed a little unnaturally. As if he knew that this was wishful thinking, he looked at Zhang Shou majestically and said: "Zhang Shou, although Hong Renqing, the head of Yuzhang Academy, is really a little pedantic, but I have sent someone to visit and investigate in advance, he is indeed a decent person, with clean sleeves and a clean breeze, dedicated to learning, and is very loved by students." ”

"Since he folded the book clearly, and now it has been spread all over the capital that he proposed to marry his daughter to the eldest prince, although I can easily refuse, but ......" The emperor organized the sentence for a while, and then felt that he couldn't organize it at all, so he simply said unreasonably, "Anyway, if you don't want the eldest prince to marry the Hong family, you can come up with a reason for me to refuse!" ”

"In addition, the eldest prince was sent to Zongzheng Temple by you, and he was shouted by Hong Renqing like this, and his life's major events really can't be delayed. You still have to tie the bell to the bell, and you have to give me an idea. ”

Seeing the Queen Mother's look of deep understanding, Zhang Shou suddenly couldn't cry or laugh. It's up to me to do this kind of thing...... Isn't it too comfortable for the two of you to be a father and a grandmother? It's my business!

Although he really didn't think that the marriage advocated by Hong Shan Chang was suitable, he didn't want to resolutely oppose it, and at this time, in the face of these two unreasonable problems, he could only give full play to the characteristics of brain teasers and rack his brains to think about countermeasures.

Soon, he had a corresponding idea for the previous question, and immediately said: "If the Queen Mother sees Hong Shanchang's daughter and thinks that people are indeed virtuous and stable, generous and capable, then since she has opened a class in her hometown to teach women, why not give her a corresponding example and leave her in the capital to preside over the good hall or something?" To tell the truth, although there are many good halls in the capital, most of them are full of malaise. ”

"It's like those rotten good halls in Cangzhou, called Shantang, it's really a place to hide dirt and dirt, and a person with a good name needs to come out to rectify it, although she is a woman, but since she has a good name, isn't it also expected?"

Seeing that the emperor was rubbing his chin there thoughtfully, but the queen mother was nodding there, obviously feeling that he was so useful, Zhang Shou thought of the more difficult second question, he was already very big, and he suddenly had an idea, and said with a smile: "As for the marriage of the eldest prince, if the queen mother summons the Hong family tomorrow, why not ask her in person?" ”

Without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak, the emperor suddenly smiled: "This is a feasible way." I also thought it was strange before, this Yuzhang Academy is said to have produced several extraordinary talents, but when I saw Hong Renqing today, he was just an ordinary old pedant, maybe his daughter was a little extraordinary, and the queen mother might as well be more tempting. ”

When the queen mother saw that the emperor had handed over to the queen mother, she suddenly laughed, glanced at Zhang Shou, and suddenly said lightly: "That is the case, I will call Yingying tomorrow, Zhang Shou, you and her will accompany me to meet people." If you are really virtuous and capable, then even in the face of a perfect pair like you, you should never show timidity. ”
