Chapter 428: Congratulations, old man
When Zheng Ruiqi arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, he felt more and more uncomfortable, the eldest princess must have something, and letting herself come in broad daylight is actually in a public form, saying things that are not public, it must be like this, just to let others see it, in order not to make others suspicious!
Regarding this, Zheng Ruiqi really guessed correctly, in the sedan chair, he was like sitting on pins and needles, and he was more and more worried, what if the eldest princess didn't ask herself to see a doctor, but wanted to say something else, such as wooing herself and letting herself stand in her team, what should I do? Say yes or no?
The dignified Shang Shuling was about to cry, he was not optimistic about the eldest princess, but he didn't want to stand in the eldest princess's team, if he was co-opted, then he must refuse, but there must be a reason for refusal, now he is about to enter the gate, and the reason has not yet come out......
Suddenly, in a hurry, he remembered that the warrant given to Yang Ze came, didn't he happen to be thinking about this before he came, so he stuffed it into his arms, so this warrant can now be regarded as a lifesaver, since the palace sent this warrant directly to himself, that is, let himself do it, if he doesn't do it well, wouldn't he live up to the palace's trust in himself, that is, sorry for the emperor, sorry for the court, sorry for Yang Ze, sorry for the hundreds of millions of people in the Dafang Empire!
Zheng Ruiqi put his heart sideways, okay, just use Yang Ze's warrant as an excuse!
He stomped his feet in front of the door of the eldest princess's mansion, signaled the sedan chair man to stop, and as soon as the sedan chair landed, he opened the sedan chair door and said to the head of the guards: "This official suddenly remembered something, there is a warrant in the palace, and Yang Ze, that is, the county order of Wannian County, should go to Guozijian to study, this warrant is very important, and it must be sent by the official himself, so ...... Well, let's put this one aside for now. The official should go and see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess first! ”
This is said very tactfully, but the meaning is very obvious, that is, I have something, something very important, I may not stay in the mansion for long, and when you go in to report it later, you have to explain this meaning to the eldest princess clearly, since I can't stay with you for long, then there are some important things, don't tell me. That's too much time!
As soon as the leader of the guards heard this, his face suddenly sank, this is to show his position, he refuses to let the eldest princess win him over, and he also uses Yang Ze to come out to talk about things, is it possible that he doesn't know that Yang Ze's puppy is the eldest princess's enemy!
Forcibly squeezing out a smile, the head of the guard said: "I understand my humble duties, so naturally I don't dare to delay Lord Zheng's business." I will go in and report it, please wait for Lord Zheng, please go to the flower hall for tea! ”
He took Zheng Ruiqi to the flower hall, and hurried to see the eldest princess. As soon as she said something, the eldest princess's face became even more ugly, she really didn't expect that she was a person who usually looked quite good. would still refuse his own wooing, could it be said that the important ministers in the court could see that they were about to lose power. So you're going to tie up with Li Zhenglong?
What is that Yang puppy, he would use him as an excuse, this Zheng Ruiqi is too inferior, even if he makes excuses, can't he find someone with more status!
The head of the guard was also very angry, when did Yang Ze become so important, and the minister of the court and the central government could use him as an excuse, is this saying that Yang Ze can already be compared with the eldest princess, this is too insulting!
The eldest princess waved her hand and said, "Then it's gone, just say that Gu has taken the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor and has improved, thank Zheng Ruiqi for coming, thank him for Gu, let him do his own business!" ”
After speaking, I only felt uncomfortable, worried about my loss of power, angry at Li Zhenglong's rise, and even more worried about the disappearance of her daughter and son-in-law, she lay back on the bed, and really no one wanted to see her.
After the leader of the guards went out, he sighed heavily, thinking about whether he should persuade the eldest princess, since it is so difficult to be an enemy with Yang Ze, it is better to turn enemies into friends, and everyone join forces to harm others together, this is the best policy!
He came to the flower hall, saw Zheng Ruiqi, and said the words of the eldest princess, Zheng Ruiqi listened to it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, if you don't see it, you won't see it, this is a good thing! Although this time it is considered to offend the eldest princess, it is better than really standing in her team, do you really think that there will be a second queen in this world?
Maybe others believe it, but he doesn't believe it, the Dugu Empress is a strong woman of the generation, there is no one before, no one after him, the eldest princess...... Forget it!
Zheng Ruiqi immediately stood up, but the dignified Shang Shuling arched his hand to a small head of the guard, he said: "In this case, the official will leave, it is a pity that I can't see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess today, when Her Royal Highness is free, this official will definitely be the east, and I hope that His Royal Highness will appreciate his face at that time!" ”
The leader of the guards thought to himself: ", do you still want to invite Your Highness to the restaurant for a meal, you are embarrassed to go down to the restaurant, my Highness is still embarrassed to go!" ”
Thinking so in his heart, he squeezed a smile on his face, and said to Zheng Ruiqi: "Lord Zheng's kindness, the humble position will naturally be repaid to His Highness!" He had an ugly smile on his face, and his tone of voice couldn't help but be stiff, and he only sent Zheng Ruiqi to the door of the mansion, and then turned around, since this person couldn't win him over, then what did he do so politely, wouldn't it be a waste of expression.
Zheng Ruiqi didn't mind at all, and when he saw that the leader of the guards had returned, he was really relieved, fortunately, he finally didn't step into the trap today, which is a great luck.
He got into the sedan chair, and the sedan chair man asked, "Master, are we going back to the yamen?" Seeing that it was not early at this time, I was afraid that it was time to return to the yamen, and it was also time to disperse. ”
Zheng Ruiqi hummed and said, "Don't go back to Yamen, go to Wannian County and see Yang Ze." ”
The palanquin man was taken aback, his own master is still a scholar, an important minister of the dynasty, if you want to say that you can come to see the eldest princess, after all, the eldest princess is a relative of the emperor, but if you want to see a small county order, this is not necessary! He is the old man of the Zheng family, and he has carried a sedan chair for Zheng Ruiqi for half his life, so he will naturally ask if he has anything to say, and his master will not blame him.
The sedan chair man said: "Master, it's better to go back to the house, let people go and say to the county order, let him go to see you, why don't you still go to see him, humble and humble, isn't this the opposite!" ”
Zheng Ruiqi snorted, not wanting to explain anything to the sedan chair man, but said impatiently: "These things, how can you understand, quickly carry the sedan chair, let's go!" ”
The palanquin man was puzzled. But he didn't ask anymore, greeted his companions, lifted the sedan chair, and went to Wannian County.
Unfortunately, after they arrived at the yamen in Wannian County, Yang Ze was not in the yamen, and asked the scribes and civil officials, but no one knew where Yang Ze had gone, and they didn't even know that Yang Ze had gone out, because Yang Ze usually didn't stay in the yamen for a long time. So no one will notice.
Zheng Ruiqi was not in a hurry, let people go out to find it, he sat in the second hall and drank tea, waiting for Yang Ze to come back, anyway, he came to sell favors, the longer he waited, the greater the favors he sold.
But Shang Shuling sat in the second hall and waited for the county order to come back, but the scribes and catchers at the bottom seemed to have fried the pot, of course they didn't dare to discuss it in front of Zheng Ruiqi. But they all muttered in their respective offices, Yang Ze's strength and fierceness, they had seen it a long time ago, but they didn't expect the official fortune to be so prosperous. can let Shang Shuling come to "visit" in person, yes, they use the word visit, is it possible that the county commander is going to be promoted? Look at the elephants!
For Yang Ze to be promoted. They are sincerely looking forward to it, not because of how good Yang Ze is and how much he takes care of his subordinates. But on the contrary, Yang Ze is not a good person, and he is not good at his subordinates, except for Guo Kangfu, a sycophant, he has never taken care of anyone, but because of this, they hope that Yang Ze will be promoted as soon as possible, and he will leave after being promoted.
But he didn't wait long, Yang Ze came back, he didn't take anyone with him when he went out, he walked through the back door, and when he came back, he was still like this, just back to the back house, a servant came mysteriously, and said to him: "County Zun, Lord Zheng is here in front, I've been waiting for you for a long time, if it weren't for the little ones who served them wholeheartedly, I'm afraid that his old man has already started a temper!" ”
In fact, Zheng Ruiqi has only arrived for a long time, and he hasn't finished drinking a cup of tea, how can he say it for a long time, but the servants have to exaggerate to ask the master for credit!
When Yang Ze heard this, he frowned and thought, "Lord Zheng, who is that?" He asked: "Which Lord Zheng, the official knows several Lord Zheng, not only Lord Zheng, but also Lord Zheng, which one is the one who is waiting for the official in front?" ”
The servant was shocked and said: "Of course it's Mr. Zheng, Mr. Shangshu Ling Zheng, that's a great official, only half a step away from the prime minister's person, his old man is waiting for the county zun in front, the county zun's face is really too big, and it will have to spread all over Chang'an City early tomorrow morning!" ”
Yang Ze sighed, he didn't know Zheng Ruiqi, but such a big official, he had heard of it, and he felt a little strange in his heart, why did this Shang Shuling come to him, he still came during the day, even if he wanted to win me over, it was too obvious!
He praised the servant twice, and then went to the second hall, and after seeing Zheng Jiqi, he naturally greeted and saluted first, and then sat down and asked the reason.
Zheng Ruiqi still has a little regret, but unfortunately he didn't wait too long, this favor was not sold big enough, but then he thought about it again, it's just a small county order, I came to him to give him face, how can there be a big or small difference. He took out the warrant and said to Yang Ze: "Yang Xian's nephew, the old man wants to congratulate you, you have a serious background when you enter the Guozijian, and you will carefully handle errands for the emperor on the day it comes, and you don't need to be at the age of the old man, you can sit in the position of the old man!" ”
Yang Ze opened the warrant and saw that it was Caicai's handwriting, the content was that he went to Guozijian to study, and thought: "Could this be that I want to mix up a diploma?" But I don't have time, even if I audit, I can't go every day, could it be that I go once a month and let me graduate? ”
Yang Ze said: "Lord Zheng, the subordinate officials of this country have heard of it, it is the highest academic institution in my dynasty, and the subordinate officials often want to go to see it, but they have never had the opportunity." The day before yesterday, when he was ordered to copy the house of General Shenwu of the Right Right, Xia Guan also asked King Jian of Linzi to use the copied Jia family property to repair the Guozijian, but in the blink of an eye, why did he let Xia Guan go to study inside, Xia Guan is not even a showman, it is not good to go in to study, I don't have this qualification, right? ”
Zheng Ruiqi's face was happy, his eyes lit up, and he said, "You came up with the idea of cultivating the country's eunuch?" Oh, I see, that's a great thing! Well, it seems that it must be the prime minister's idea to let you go to study in the country, this is to thank you, the country has not been repaired for many years, and now it has a lot of money, and it can be repaired, even if it is an old man, I want to thank you well!
