One hundred and thirty-two, uninvited guests
"I have a second brother and an elder brother, and this knee is also a son of Pan'er, it's not enough to guard it all day, and let him go out on an errand, and go to the border to be an errand, this is really reluctant, I mean he doesn't have to be an errand, the family's livelihood is not bad, Pan'er will do business, and make enough money. It's you, second brother," Aunt Xue said distressedly, "Since I was deceived by my second brother and said that it was okay to go to Shuzhong, I couldn't sleep well, I heard that Pan'er could go home safely after returning from victory, I slept a little better, why did my brother still ask him to go out on an errand, I was absolutely reluctant, you should be an uncle and be sympathetic to your nephew, and you wouldn't send some beautiful errands," Aunt Xue complained, "Why do you still send these drudgeries to Pan'er?" ”
Only a few sisters can dare to talk to Wang Ziteng like this, and Da Sima, who is majestic and arrogant outside, and no one dares not to obey his orders at this time, was accused by his own sister of being inconsiderate of his nephew, and he could only smile bitterly, "What is this talking about, since ancient times, it has been these drudgeries that have trained people, so that they can be promoted faster." ”
"That's it," Aunt Xue said, "we are not such poor children, we have to rely on the merits earned by these lives to be promoted, in my opinion, there is no need to choose any errands, take care of the business at home, and it will be smooth in a few years." ”
"Okay, okay," the prince said quietly, "Since you don't want to be the fourth sister, then that's it, I'm just saying that, Wenlong is good, and it's proper to do any errand, since it's the younger sister who thinks it's best for him not to go out in the capital, it's also simple, the official students of Xian'an Palace graduate out, they are all in the yamen of the Beijing Division, and they won't go on business trips." ”
Aunt Xue is the youngest in the family, so although she is now a mother, Wang Ziteng still loves her very much, and when she heard that Aunt Xue was unwilling, she didn't say anything about letting Xue Pan go to the military department on an errand, "Don't say anything else," Xue Pan smiled, he breathed a long sigh of relief, he didn't want to go to the nine sides to inspect anything, this is really the hardest work, the drudgery is avoided, and he will say witty words when he is happy, "Uncle is in front of the big Sima, can I still go to the military department on an errand?" I'm afraid that when the time comes, Shangguan will not be Shangguan, and his subordinates will not be subordinates, and it will mess up the rules of officialdom, but it's not good. ”
"That old Zhang of the Li Fan Yuan," Wang Ziteng said with a smile, "A few days ago, when I was preparing to call up in the Yang Xin Palace, I also told me a few times, saying that it is very sincere with you, the Li Fan Yuan really wants you to be on an errand in the past, first, the affairs of the Western Kingdom are beautiful, how many years have not been so lively, and the second is that the magic weapon of Madrid Si Khan has arrived, and next month there will be a conference of the feudal clans, so that the big guy can see the fate of the Celestial Empire, this matter is also in the limelight, he helped me say a few good words in front of the emperor, so I want to ask what you mean, If you want to go there, if you do, it's also a good place to go. ”
After all, the management of these vassal states, although it is not a serious and powerful yamen in the court, but in the eyes of the people of the vassal states, a small handyman of the Lifan Yuan Sura is not easy to offend, after all, the Lifan Yuan manages all the affairs of the internal and external domains, if you make a mistake and are pinched by him, it is a big risk to get rid of the country and destroy the clan.
This is a good place, although I have been dealing with these vassal countries, not a key department worth mentioning in the center, but there is also a lot of welfare oil and water, in the past, the southeast island country of a country lord came to the court, sent the small governor of the Sifang Pavilion Domain a box of pepper and other unknown spices, all of a sudden made the governor rich, after all, spices are available everywhere in this island country, the lord of the country does not think it is a valuable thing, so it is easy to send it out, and after knowing this, the price of the Kyoto spice market suddenly plummeted, I don't know how many hoarders of spices went bankrupt as a result.
"When did I become a sweetheart?" Xue Pan said with a smile, "I heard that Lao Li, the deacon of Xian'an Palace, helped me analyze it, and said that I can almost go to these yamen." Now that I'm not busy, my nephew has made a decision in my heart, and I have to discuss it with my classmates and ask him what he means. ”
Wang Ziteng nodded, "It's good if you have an idea, but your mother said that it shouldn't be bad, it can't be done," Wang Ziteng shook his head again, "How can young people not be bad?" How is it good to stay at home and not do anything like Baoyu? I'm still waiting for you to hurry up and get out, it's not that you have all your talents, it's just that in the officialdom, you still have to pay attention to qualifications, and if you have a few years of experience, you can come to help me. ”
Wang Ziteng's wife said with a smile, "Baoyu is only a few years old, and it is said that he is on an errand there, and the old lady feels sorry for him, and his body is weak, so he naturally has to raise him for a few more years." ”
Aunt Xue also meant this, "Baoyu's delicate body, there is an errand outside, Pan'er is not good at reading, Baoyu I see that she is very good at reading, and she will always take the imperial examination to be the champion of the Jinshi examination in the future, where she will be on an errand first, and it is the same to study first." ”
Wang Ziteng didn't look down on Baoyu, but Wang Ziteng's wife and Aunt Xue felt that the model of the children of a big family should be like Baoyu, Wang Ziteng smiled bitterly, "That's it, I can't say a few of you, let's eat seriously." ”
After a while, after the meal was finished, after rinsing his mouth, he changed the tea, and withdrew the table, at this time he began to continue listening to the play, the winter days are short, and there is no need to take a nap, at this time, the head of the class stepped forward to ask the prince to make a play, the prince Teng ordered one or two plays at will, and asked Xue Pan to come to some, Xue Pan smiled, "I don't care what drama I watch, just order what you are best at." ”
So he played it after a while, the first time he starred in "Huangliang Dream", everyone knows about Huangliang Yimeng, and the raw role of the scholar who became a high-ranking official and married a princess in his sleep is very witty and humorous, this initial downfall and the arrogance of the back head and the last dream awakening are all very well handled, even Wang Ziteng can't help but nod his head again and again, "Huangliang A dream, glory and wealth seem to be a bubble, and it becomes really fast." ”
This is a small-scale family banquet, people from outside can't come in, and Wang Ziteng won't go to see it, but the people in his own family, then they can naturally come in, and after a while, the housekeeper will come to report, "Uncle Ren is here." ”
Wang Ziteng frowned slightly, obviously not very well treated this "Uncle Ren", "What is he doing here?" Asking for silver again? ”
The housekeeper didn't speak, just hung his hand, and Wang Ziteng said helplessly, "Since you're here, let him in!" ”
