Linzhi Gongzi [Red Mansion]

Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming, the Wen family became very busy for this festival.At both ends, all the affairs in the house are left to Wen Zhi, while Wen Yishu is busy with the moon cake business in the unnamed restaurant.I tasted all the mooncakes by myself, and my mouth was full of anger and my tongue was burnt.Holding his cheeks all day long, the pain was so painful that he couldn't eat anything.

Liang Yu couldn't see him getting hurt a little bit.Frowning, as if his own tongue was broken.When the courtiers saw it, they thought that His Royal Highness was devoting himself to the affairs of the court, so they became more diligent.

If the blisters cannot go away, business must always be done.Just as the sun was shining on the dewdrops on the chrysanthemum leaves, the carriage at the back door of Wen's house was pulled out.Wen Yishu leaned on the carriage and yawned. He still felt pain at the base of his tongue when he moved it. He took a sip of the cool mist tea from the cup, but he didn't swallow it.

Today, the freshest water chestnut will be delivered from outside the city.Everyone in a village lives by growing this water chestnut, and they really dare not waste their lifeblood.Wen Yishu made an agreement with them, and if the things are good, he will always make an arrangement with them.Before dawn, the whole village escorted things into the city for delivery.The boss on this side just went out, and the car on the other side arrived at the back of the shop and waited early.

The carriage picked up speed and there was a gust of wind. Wen Yishu stuck his head out of the window and called the person's name in a daze: "Feng Shuo, Feng Yan..."

The two brothers approached immediately, "What's the matter, son..."

A plate of Shuanghong Cake was handed out from the car window, and Wen Yishu said, "Eat it."

The brothers of the Feng family who hadn't eaten breakfast were overjoyed, said "Thank you son", and then took it and shared it.

Shuanghong Gao is steamed with a layer of red bean flour and a layer of coarsely ground brown sugar. It is soft and not too dry in the mouth.It was sold in an unnamed restaurant a while ago.There are such benefits to being by Wen Yishu's side.You don't need to spend any money to get the crazy stuff outside.Several guards in King Zhao's mansion were envious of the two brothers.

Just after wolfing down two mouthfuls, Feng Shuo raised his head vigilantly and winked at his elder brother.

Feng Yan wiped his mouth, and sure enough, he saw two figures on the back of the car.

There were already quite a few people in the early morning. Although the two of them tried their best to pretend to be wandering around, they still couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the Feng brothers.

"What's the matter?" Wen Yishu raised the curtain and asked.Seeing the appearance of the two brothers, he smiled and said, "Are you following up again?"

Feng Shuo snorted through his nose: "The ghosts linger."

Wen Yishu couldn't help but poked his head out, and looked at it with great interest, "Is it because I'm afraid that I might escape?"

After looking at it for a while, he told Heng Shan who was driving ahead: "Go through the main entrance later, and go to the third master's mansion when you come out. Their master must be in a hurry. If they don't grasp some clues in their hands, they may not even be able to fall asleep. gone."

Hengshan got the order, and the little horsewhip was in good shape.Wen Yishu swaggered off at the unnamed restaurant.I inspected the goods with the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper, and ate several water chestnuts enduring the sore base of my tongue.Satisfied with the head of the village, he paid the money and got the goods, and signed a deed.At this time, he was not in a hurry to go out, and found a place near the window where he could see the outside.Calling Hengshan, the brothers of the Feng family tasted the morning tea and served the food with the anxious faces of the followers.

After breakfast, I went around the shop again.Wen Yishu boarded the carriage again, seeing that he was going to Prince Zhao's Mansion, suddenly the car turned around and went to the medicine shop outside Liangdaofang on Huiming Street, grabbed some medicines for clearing away heat and reducing fire, and then turned left Turn right and go to King Zhao's Mansion.

Looking back, seeing the angry and relieved appearance of the two people in the back, the four of them supported the gate of King Zhao's Mansion and laughed.

His Royal Highness King Su has indeed been pushed to the top in the past few days.The last time he united a group of people to criticize Liang Yu's new tax policy, he originally had the upper hand.Who would have thought that the group of people under His Highness the Crown Prince were extremely "modest and eager to learn".A group of courtiers know how not to be ashamed to ask.He caught those who scolded the most fiercely at that time, and asked sincerely about the solution to the problem - Liu Xuande, who looked at the thatched cottage three times, couldn't compare to that appearance.

This is embarrassing, no answer, no answer.You can't openly admit that you are the one who finds fault in front of the public, right? "Shameless" is no match for others, so I had to bite the bullet and answer a few words, and then fled in despair.

The one who finds fault becomes the embarrassment of being stopped halfway, which is also a big joke in the world.

After going back and forth a few times, although Liang Ji was very annoying, he also felt that Liang Yu was just dying, and he couldn't think of a good way to use such trivial tricks to disgust people.However, at the court meeting ten days later, his mood was not so good.

I don't know where Liang Yu found a talkative scholar, and stood in Yanying Hall to chat with the scholars.The mouth is full of lotus flowers, and the speech makes people burst into flames, and those who can't breathe can hold back.

King Su's face turned green. Seeing that the little official was dressed as a county magistrate, he shouted angrily: "Why are you jumping like a clown and disturbing the court! Someone, let me drag you out!"

This county magistrate is also a bachelor enough, with his hat crooked and his clothes falling, he said in panic, "Your Highness! Your Majesty is the county magistrate of Yong County under the Chang'an Prefecture. The trial of the new tax law measurement algorithm will start in Yong County. Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince authorized the magistrate Come to the court and listen to the details of the new tax! Your Highness, if you drive me out now, the officials will not know anything, and you will have no way to explain to the people when you go back. You will definitely be caught and beaten. At that time, Xiaguan’s black hat will not be guaranteed!"

He knelt down on one knee, and woke up the little eunuch who was dozing off next to him with a yelp.

This person's name is Hou Lianpi, and he is also a student of Yaqiu Academy, so he is Wen Yishu's senior brother.When Wen Yishu and Liang Yu Sapo were unwilling to take the imperial examination, he had already copied the books in the Imperial Academy for a long time, and the rice he copied could not be bought at home.

When he was desperate, he wrote a letter to Mr. Ji Lin, asking if there was any teaching position in the academy?If so, he would resign and take his family back home.

Mr. Ji felt distressed when he saw his favorite student living so hard.Immediately pick up a pen and reply a letter.Write a letter - find your junior brother!Followed by Wen's address.Then Hou Lianpi hugged his pair of children who were still breastfeeding, and knocked on the door of Wen's house.Blocked Wen Yishu who was just about to go out in the yard, and listened to his cries like a lotus flower falling for half an hour.

Amidst the wailing, Wen Yishu took the letter from his husband, read it hastily, and understood what his husband meant.He first asked Tianchi to take 30 taels of silver to come to Hou Lianpi for emergency living, and then told him: "If you are a good talent, why should you live in the countryside? Brothers usually keep good articles. The best ones are close to people's livelihood and pragmatic. Just waiting for good luck to come in the future."

Hou Lianpi didn't come here with any hope, but when he heard Wen Yishu say this, he blushed a little.Holding the child is very embarrassed to thank people and apologize.

"Senior brother, you don't need to be like this," Wen Yishu helped him up, pointing out, "You need to remember that everything in the future will be learned by the senior brother based on his real talents. When you walk in the officialdom, don't forget these four words."

At that time, Hou Lianpi received the hot 30 taels of silver, and was still beating drums in his heart, wondering: If he hadn't run out of water and rice, he would never have known that there was such a rich junior in Chang'an City.If this junior brother has any help, why didn't the master ask all the students who stayed in the capital to come to him for help?

After the chaos in the court, Hou Lianpi realized what Wen Yishu's words meant.There is a wave of corruption, and a wave of those who play tricks on money are kicked out. The entire officialdom is waiting to be fed, and talents are urgently needed!The Ministry of Officials urgently issued a recruiting order, and began to examine past Jinshi candidates and select talents.

I got a reminder, the article that Hou Lianpi kept and didn't use as firewood really played a big role!In particular, the article "Twenty Articles on the Restructuring of New Grain, Taxes, Rents and Maids" directly asked Qiu Shangshu of the Ministry of Households to call him to him.Qiu Shangshu and Hou Lianpi said that Yong County in Chang'an Prefecture needed a bold county magistrate.The county magistrate needs to actually work for His Highness the Crown Prince, experiment with the new tax law, and ask Hou Lianpi if he would like to go.

Hou Lianpi did not agree immediately, but first asked about the content of the new tax law.Qiu Shangshu answered him with a smile, but before he finished speaking, Hou Lianpi threw off his robe and knelt on the ground and shouted: "I am willing to do my best for His Royal Highness!"

Thinking of all the experiences afterwards, Hou Lianpi felt that his good fortune could not be separated from Wen Yishu's help.Finally, in the midst of his busy schedule, he took three days out of the ten-day vacation, and went to Zhen'an Square with some local products and 30 taels of silver to thank him.

The concierge welcomed Hou Lianpi in politely, and before he could say a word of thanks, he heard exclamations from behind.Then Hou Lianpi confronted an imposing young man.

Before magistrates take office, no matter how far or near they are, they must go to the Daming Palace to thank the emperor.Now that the Holy Majesty has been ill for a long time, His Highness the Crown Prince will naturally take charge of this matter.Hou Lianpi was standing not far away, so he could see the appearance of that Highness clearly, and of course he also knew who the young man in front of him was.

For a moment, Hou Lianpi was completely stunned.

"Ah, what a coincidence," Wen Yishu's laughing voice came from behind.

The young man walked over and stood beside Wen Yishu, his gaze fell on Hou Lianpi.Wen Yishu introduced: "This is my senior brother, Hou Lianpi..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man had already said, "Are you Hou Lianpi?"

Hou Lianpi woke up with a start, stood up straight and bowed: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Well, let's get up," the young prince nodded, "Qiu Nai showed me your article, and it was well written. You are quite courageous if you dare to go to Yong County. I didn't expect you to be Yishu's senior brother... Ji Mister's disciples are really extraordinary."

Hou Lianpi was terrified by his praise, but felt that he was not praising himself.Wen Yishu next to him laughed, and gave the crown prince a push: "You go in first, and ask me to entertain guests."

Until sitting in the hall, Hou Lianpi still felt like he was in a dream.Looking at Wen Yishu, I feel that the person in front of me is also in a dream.He finally understood why the teacher didn't easily let his students know that there was such a classmate.Wen Yishu is clearly a gust of wind sending people straight to the sky!

If others find out, even if it is a one-in-ten-thousandth possibility, no matter what it is for, there will be no rest.But why is Mr. willing to show himself a way?While Hou Lianpi was astonished, he also felt a little bit regretful and puzzled.He has always thought that his destiny has turned around because of his true talents and learning, but now it seems that it is...

"What are you thinking, brother?" Wen Yishu asked Hou Lianpi with a smile.

Hou Lianpi was a little startled, took a bit of bitterness into his heart, brought up the local products and a bag of silver in his hand, and thanked: "Today, I came here specially to thank the younger brother for his kindness."

Wen Yishu didn't refuse, and told people to take the things away, but he didn't speak.Hou Lianpi touched his face and felt his face was burning hot. He found a topic and said, "If there is no junior brother, I would not be here today. I..."

"Senior Brother," Wen Yishu interrupted him, "Senior Brother, do you still remember what I said when you first came to the door?"

Hou Lianpi was a little embarrassed when the compliment was interrupted, but he still said the truth: "Of course I remember."

"That's it," Wen Yishu nodded, and Wen Yan continued, "Since this is the case, you will know the weight of these four words. Brother, you might as well think about it, what Qiu Shangshu said when he came to you What are you talking about. Just think about it, how many of your beautiful articles are exactly what the court wants to use."

Hou Lianpi's eyes lit up following Wen Yishu's words, as if the fog had cleared and he saw the sun.

Wen Yishu sat there, sighing slightly peacefully: "I helped the senior brother, but it was the 30 taels of silver, so that the senior brother's family can live in the capital. The final opportunity is earned by the senior brother himself, waiting for it." , hold it. It will be the same in the future.”

The so-called one word solves the rootless troubles.Hou Lianpi, who had been on the tip of his horns, also came to his senses, his expression became more and more radiant, and he said, "I'm narrow-minded!"

Wen Yishu shook his head, and said: "I just hope that senior brother will not forget the promise he made, and don't forget the things around him."

Relying on real talents and learning to do a great job for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Hou Lianpi silently read this sentence in his heart.He also finally understood that the husband asked him to come to Wen Yishu, he really didn't point out a shortcut to let him go, but gave him a possibility to wait for an opportunity in Chang'an.And Chang'an is anxiously waiting for someone as talented and knowledgeable as him.

If you treat me with a state officer, I will repay it.

He had a thorough understanding of the new tax law, and he was stunned to refute those who deliberately made things difficult in the court.Looking at the speechless King Su, Hou Lianpi was looking at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the upper right.He felt that although His Highness had no expression on his face, he was actually smiling in his heart.

Hou Lianpi secretly rejoiced that the eloquence in arguing with his classmates back then was not lost, it is really great!

In this match, His Royal Highness King Su lost.He glared at those courtiers and motioned for them to speak!But meeting Liang Ji's gaze, the courtiers who were eloquent all dodged away.Liang Ji was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth!

In the silence where the dust had settled, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stood up and announced: "The new tax law has been established in theory, but if it is implemented in practice, there will be many problems. Take Yong County as an example to implement this law and summarize the main points. Waiting for this time After the autumn harvest is over, it can be pushed to Chang'an, then to the two capitals, and finally to the whole country. I also hope that everyone will refrain from arrogance and impetuosity, put your eyes on the ground, and seek for my people to live and work in peace and contentment, and have enough food and clothing!"

All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were arrogant, shouting: "I am willing to serve my life!"

Amidst the excited voices of allegiance, Liang Ji took a deep breath and looked forward——

Liang Yu!You forced me!
