Chapter 179: Glory and Wealth

Although Xu Chang's house in Beijing is not big, the geographical location is excellent, located in the inner city, the place is quite spacious, and there are seven or eight vacant rooms in the two-entry house.

In addition, the house also hired cooks, doormen, and rough maids, although it is not as rich and noble as those rich and noble families, but it is also considered solid.

This house was rented by Xu Chang, Xu Qian's house has been cleaned up, in the east chamber of the backyard, in this regard, Xu Chang is careful, pen, ink, paper and inkstone have also prepared a lot, and also vacated a study room for Xu Qian, the study is full of bookshelves, it is full of dazzling books.

Xu Qian couldn't help but be embarrassed, and said to the old man: "Dad, where did these books come from?" ”

Xu Chang smiled slightly: "Some time ago, I copied a house, and I asked someone to bring it out. What's the matter, the scribes of the experience department have said, there are a lot of treasures here, in addition to the four books and five classics, there are a lot of unique books, in short, they are all books, I thought you should read, after all, it is still useful. ”

Xu Qian Khan, for a semi-literate old man, it seems that he doesn't understand the difference between textbooks and pornographic books and periodicals, and if he gets a few private treasures, it will be interesting.

Xu Qian was satisfied with Jingshi's qiē, and five or six cousins of the Xu family also lived here.

In the study, Xu Chang closed the door and lit a candle, and the father and son finally had a chance to have a long talk behind closed doors.

Xu Chang first asked Xu Qian, "Why didn't Deng Jian's kid come to Beijing?" Dad is still going to get him an errand, what's the matter, he plans to follow the prince for the rest of his life? ”

Xu Qian told Deng Jian about it, Xu Chang was silent for a moment, and then said: "It's okay like this, wealth and wealth are in danger, and you can't rely on others." ”

Xu Qian felt that this sentence was like a hint from the old man to himself, what does it mean to rely on others and not be reliable. Buying a house and marrying a daughter-in-law depends on you, old man.

Xu Chang looked at Xu Qian's expression, as if he had guessed Xu Qian's thoughts, and frowned: "Dad is now in Jinyiwei, it seems to be quite beautiful, but it is not as good as others think, Dad is promoted too quickly, and he has no qualifications, which will inevitably make people blush." Xu Chang immediately sneered and said, "But don't be afraid." Dad is so good that he has never seen any kind of open guns and hidden arrows. It's you ......" Xu Chang said solemnly: "Although you are now in the middle of the Yuan, you have made a lot of enemies, and some things are ......" He paused, and suddenly the tone of his words changed: "This time I arrived in Jingshi." What's the plan? ”

Xu Qian said with a smile: "Naturally, I am waiting for next year's exam, and I will read here first, walk more, and see more." ”

Xu Chang sneered: "It's just thinking about playing, something that has no interest!" After scolding, he felt a little excessive, so he sighed. Said: "You scholars have a saying that the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, what is the use of relying on a fame alone in your temperament? You have to have a backstage! ”

Xu Qian smiled and said, "Isn't Dad my backstage?" ”

Xu Chang was so angry that his face turned red: "These are two different things, you have to be hard to strike iron." I'll tell you the truth......" He was about to continue, when the voices of Xu Han and Xu Yong came from outside: "I've seen the adults ......"

When Xu Chang heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's here." Really come, go. Come with me to meet Lord Lu. ”

Xu Qian was confused, the old man knew that someone would come, and when he got home, he didn't talk to himself, so he made a special trip to be a lobbyist.

He had to stand up and take Xu Qian out of the study, and saw that in the courtyard, an old man wearing a Qinci flying fish suit had arrived in the courtyard, Xu Han and Xu Yong both bowed at the feet of the old man, the old man just nodded at them, and casually looked at Xu Chang's body, Xu Chang smiled, and hurriedly said: "Lu Yanshi, humble and polite." ”

Lu Baishi just smiled, raised his hand weakly, and said, "Xu Baihu is his own family, so there is no need to be polite." Is this a virtuous nephew? His gaze quickly fell on Xu Qian.

Xu Qian stepped forward and saluted, "Uncle Lu is good." ”

Xu Chang said embarrassedly: "The dog has no form, and I ask Lord Lu to forgive me." ”

Lu Yishi just smiled slightly, and said, "It's okay, the old man is trying to ask the virtuous nephew to talk, if the virtuous nephew is free, let's find a quiet place." ”

Xu Chang squeezed his eyebrows at Xu Qian, and motioned for Xu Qian to hurry up and agree.

Xu Qian glanced at this Lu Yanshi, and then smiled bitterly; "Since that's the case, I have to ask Lu to arrange it." 、

In the flower hall of the Xu family, the rough girl had already sent tea, and Xu Yong, Xu Han and the others all retreated, Lu Yishi sat in the first place unceremoniously, Xu Chang was on the left side of Lu Baishi, and Xu Qian was the last seat to accompany him, he could feel that this Lu Baishi was secretly looking at him from beginning to end.

Lu Yishi coughed, and then said: "The old man's surname is Lu, a single name with a pine character, thanks to the emperor's love, he is the secretary of the Jinyi Guard, the head of the Nanzhen Mansion, and the Zhang family in the cheap is the grandmother of His Majesty today." ”

This Lu Song even revealed that he had started his home, and it was so strange to report it

It's just his name and official position, and he even reported that his wife was the emperor's nurse. Although the name of the emperor's grandmother is very scary, Xu Qian is not frightened after all, and at this time, he can't help but wonder what kind of calculation this Lu is doing.

After Lu Song said it, he immediately smiled and said: "I think back then, the old man just attacked his father's position as a general banner, three years ago, in Anlu, he was just a small royal palace guard scepter, but now he is in the center of the pro-army, and he has become a figure who can be counted on the stage among the brocade guards, why?" ”

Lu Song smiled coldly and continued: "It's nothing more than a coincidence, and it also benefits from the emperor's grace, so our pro-army, the most important thing is the emperor's grace, if it is the holy favor, it will soar to the sky, and the marquis will be just around the corner." The old man has thought about it over the years, he has no ability to do it, and he has no knowledge to learn, and it is very rare to be able to get to this point today, but fortunately, he understands this truth, but it is enough to be prosperous and rich for a lifetime. ”

He babbled so much, as if he was showing off that his relationship with the emperor was not trivial, but what made Xu Qian feel more and more puzzled was that he was talking so much nonsense, what was the point?

Lu Song also seemed to sense Xu Qian's doubts, and then smiled and said: "The virtuous nephew must be thinking in his heart, whether it is inappropriate for the old man to come and say so much nonsense, so it is better for the old man to say the intention directly, since Xu Xian's nephew has arrived in Beijing, he is planning to try next year, there is just one year to go, this year's time is more and more, and less is less, with Xu Xian's nephew's ability, I think it will not be a problem to try, has Xu Xian's nephew ever thought about taking advantage of these times to come to Nanzhen Mansion on business?" There is a lack of a bookkeeper here in Nanzhen, this clerk's job is not harmful to you, and there is not much to do in ordinary times, just occasionally, talk to the old man, play chess, as for the monthly salary, of course, it will not be less, just according to the salary of 100 households, how about it? ”

Xu Qian finally understood that the old man had just said so much, and it turned out that he wanted to hire himself.

In fact, before a scholar becomes an official, it is nothing to be someone else's guest in the curtain, not only can he sharpen himself, but also earn some family. Of course, the most important thing is the connections, if there are connections, if Dengke becomes an official in the future, he will always be more smooth than others.

Therefore, the governors of various provinces, some of them are vying to serve, but this time it is not the governor who came to invite, but the Jinyi guard.

Xu Qian couldn't help but ask: "My lord, there are so many people in the world, why do you invite students?" ”

Lu Song looked at him and said unabashedly: "It's okay to sue you, the reason is very simple, just because your name is Xu Qian, the palace trusts you very much, you have entered my Nanzhen Mansion, you are my friend of someone in Lu, and in the future, you and I will be in the same boat and prosperous together." But if you don't, some things won't be certain, your father is also on business in Jinyiwei, I think you should understand. ”

This guy ...... It's really straightforward enough.

The so-called solicitation of oneself is nothing more than making an investment and treating oneself as a high-performance stock. Xu Qian slandered in his heart, Lu Song's temptation is still very great, after all, his wife is the emperor's wet nurse, and his son is the famous Jinyiwei spy leader in later generations, and now he should also work in Jinyiwei, and have a good relationship with such a person, besides, he is in Nanzhen Mansion, who will dare to provoke him in the future? Although it will not stomp on the ground and shake the ground, it has a great deterrent for most ordinary people.

Xu Qian was silent for a moment, then shook his head, and only gave one answer: "Forgive me!" ”

Lu Song originally expected that Xu Qian would obediently comply, but who knew that this guy was good, and he refused so simply.

Lu Song couldn't help but be stunned......

Don't say it's him, even Xu Chang couldn't help but be stunned.

Xu Qian continued: "Adults are very loving, students dare not be ashamed, but students are only shallow in their studies, embarrassed by their responsibilities, and ask adults to forgive their sins." ”

Lu Song's face was faintly angry: "Why, you look down on the old man?" Or do you look down on the Nanzhen Mansion? ”

Xu Qian was silent.

Lu Song didn't expect that the hot face was attached to the cold buttocks, snorted coldly, stood up, and said, "Okay, it's very good." "With that, lift your legs and go.

Xu Chang was startled, and hurriedly got up to ask for mercy, but Xu Qian grabbed him, with a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Dad, don't worry about this matter......"

Xu Chang was so angry that he shook off Xu Qian's hand, and snorted coldly with hatred: "You...... Do you know what kind of person this Lu Yishi is? Is...... When did you also learn those sour talents, such a worldly sophistication? Bad learning, bad learning......"

Xu Qian said confidently: "Dad, I know the sophistication of human feelings, so I don't dare to agree to Lu Yan's affairs, hey, let me explain to you slowly." ”

Xu Chang snorted coldly: "I don't listen, let it be up to you, anyway, in your eyes, my father is just a decoration, and you can mess around with anything." ”
