A scholar becomes a landlord

Thanks to Wei Le's actions being more measured than Brother Xiang Tian's, otherwise Yi Fengguang would not be able to clean up the mess with someone like him who doesn't seek trouble and troubles come to him automatically.

"What does it mean to be more measured than me, I'm obviously not worse!" Brother Xiang Tian who defended himself was carried away by Cheng Yong, and Wei Le rolled his eyes at him from behind.

The most troublesome person actually said that he was not bad, Wei Le despised him.

Returning to the capital again, Wei Le looked at the tall city gate and sighed.The last time he came back was for Wei's family, he was worried and angry, he didn't take a good look at the city gate at all, but now he looked up and found that it was really tall and serious, the facade of the capital was well done.

Because of Yi Feng's presence, they went directly through the gate of the city where the dignitaries and dignitaries used to go, and the other row of commoners walked through the same gate as the elders and elders. The last time Wei Le came through the same gate, this time it was the same .There is no need to pay any entry fees, and the guards at the city gates let them pass after seeing Yi Feng's token.

This is status, even a false noble is not white, but a noble with status and status.

As soon as he entered the city, Butler Jin saw people from the Liu Mansion, because the leader was his father, Old Butler Jin.

"Father, the young master is here."

Butler Jin stood in front and waved to the old Butler Jin who was looking towards the gate of the city.

"Here, come, tidy yourself up and welcome the young master." Old Jin Butler said to the people around him.

"Yes."

The people around him hurried to see if there was any faux pas on their body, the first time they saw the young master, they couldn't let them think that they didn't value him.

At this time, someone had already recognized that this was the housekeeper of the Liu Mansion, and for a while everyone was curious as to who the young master of the Liu Mansion was.I didn't hear that there was a young master in Liu's mansion. Obviously Master Liu and his wife had no heirs, not even concubines, concubines, so they were very curious about the identity of this young master.But there are flexible and intelligent people who have already thought of it, the person who can be called the young master by everyone in the Liu family...

It's that one!

Those who guessed it all turned their eyes to the convoy, and finally landed on the most luxurious carriage.

"The villain Jin Zhong has seen the young master. The master and his wife have been waiting for the young master at home for a long time, and we specially sent the villain to welcome the young master back home." At the hint of his son, Butler Jin came to the most luxurious carriage.

As for the host, they broke up with Wei Le and the others when they were outside the city, and the carriage took them directly to Huangjue Temple on the outskirts of the capital. The monks from the Golden Buddha Temple never entered the city at all.

So there are still a few carriages missing in the convoy, otherwise it would be even more spectacular.

"Old butler Jin?" A pleasant voice came from inside the car, and a group of eavesdroppers outside clenched their hands tightly as if they had been beaten.

"Yes, young master. Master Yi, the master asked you to come over to the mansion first, he still has something to discuss with you." It was a disguised excuse for Yi Feng to stay at Master Liu's mansion.Although they have a house in Beijing, it is normal to stay and stay for one or two nights because of business, and no one would think too much about it.And people who think too much can only show that they themselves have problems. At this time, the eldest brother should not talk about the second brother, otherwise other people's affairs will be revealed before there is evidence.

"Then Brother Yi, you just go!"

Wei Le spoke, of course Yi Feng didn't dare not listen.

"Okay, then I would like to trouble Steward Jin to send someone to Yi's house to tell them. I'm afraid they will be anxious if they don't wait for a long time."

Yi Feng was pretty good at pretending, anyway, in the eyes of outsiders, everything was normal, the only thing he was dissatisfied with was why the people in the carriage never showed up, even the curtains were drawn tightly.

"Let's go then!"

The carriage started, and the steward Lao Jin got into his son's carriage. The few people he brought led the way. After all, there were still a few members of the Wei family who had been to Liu's mansion. It was normal not to know the way. Let alone them, even Wei Le doesn't know where the Liu Mansion is now.

The husband has indeed told him, but telling him and seeing it in person are two different things, okay?So he really doesn't know very well, but he probably heard that it is on the East Street, but the exact location is not known. The East Street is full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and even several palaces are located there, which is a particularly prominent place. It is a phenomenon that if you take a step in the capital, you will be smashed to death by three high officials.

Wei Le and his group headed towards Liu's mansion. The necks of those who watched the excitement and wanted to know the true face of Master Liu's only disciple were almost broken. The carriage was still tightly covered, and no one could see a flower from inside.

However, the voice of Master Geliu's disciple is quite pleasant, refreshing and refreshing, which makes people feel good about it. Not only the face control, but also the voice control residents of the capital think of it.

Wei Le was sitting in the carriage, he knew that there were a lot of onlookers, all of them came for him as the only disciple of Lord Liu.So he sat calmly in the carriage, no matter how much the people outside expected him, he just didn't lift the curtain and let everyone listen to his voice to guess.

And some people who know that Liu Hao's disciple is the concubine of the Wei family who disappeared a few years ago are even more curious about him. Not many people have seen Wei Le in the capital, because this kid is more homely, and he usually has any banquets. He doesn't participate too much, of course there are reasons why his aunt doesn't want him to appear, but he really doesn't like to go out usually outside, he just visits famous temple bookstores and the like, even if he was a classmate, in addition to knowing that he is good at writing, I don't know much about other things, which shows the original owner's otaku nature.

But not too much does not mean that there are not many, there are still people who have seen Wei Le, but a few years ago he looked like a young boy, but now that the coronation ceremony is about to be held, it is estimated that his appearance has changed a lot.

So people who are curious about Wei Le are not only those who have never seen him, but even those who have seen him are even more curious, because they want to know what kind of changes have taken place in Wei Le, and let Master Liu teach him like his own son. The other party often gave things to the only disciple.

There was even a rumor that the Liu family's property, including Mrs. Liu's dowry, would be left to Wei Le in the end. This rumor made many students who were apprentices go crazy.

There are all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred towards Wei Le in their hearts. If they meet a mentor like Mr. Liu, they will reach the sky in one step. Unlike Wei Le, who is in the blessing and does not know the blessing, he wants to be a hermit. It was all his husband's request, which was a big blow to many candidates who were looking forward to being named on the gold list.

They broke their heads and wanted to get something, but the other party got it easily, and even gave it up. How can people not complain, how can they be peaceful?

Wei Le didn't know that there were so many people in the capital who hated him. He only knew that there were too many people watching, making his carriage a little slow.Fortunately, the civilians on East Street consciously stopped, and they were not allowed to enter here at ordinary times.

The carriage drove to Liu Shangshu's mansion, and the upper and lower parts of Liu's mansion were newly decorated, and the gate was opened wide.

There were quite a few servants standing on both sides, and the leader was Butler Jin's son, Butler Jin.

Wei Le was helped off the carriage by Yi Feng, and looked at the energetic servants of the Liu family who bowed their heads to welcome him.

"Welcome home, young master."

That's right, it's the young master.The servants of Liu's mansion had already received the order, and they were only allowed to call Wei Le Young Master, and no other titles were allowed. If Madam heard it, they had to be careful.

"Housekeeper Xiaojin, take me to wash up first, I don't want to go see Mr. and Mrs. Mistress all covered in dust." Wei Le stood in front of Butler Xiaojin. He didn't treat himself as an outsider, just like Mr. Liu and Mrs. Treat yourself like an outsider, they are a family, not relatives are better than relatives.

Some relationships do not require blood ties. This kind of emotion comes from the heart, which is more reassuring than relying on blood ties.

"Yes, young master, Master Yi, please follow me."

Butler Xiaojin took Wei Le and Yi Feng to the Haoran Courtyard next to the main courtyard. This is the name of the courtyard that Mr. Liu personally inscribed, and it was specially cleaned up for Wei Le to live in.Although the person is not in the capital, the yard is arranged very comfortably.Except that it is not as good as Weijia when it is convenient to wash, everything else is not bad.

Needless to say, the furnishings inside are all the best.Now that Mr. Liu has been promoted and is the emperor's cronies, I don't know how many people flatter him and respect him. Liu Hao is not the kind of rigid person. Three festivals, two longevity and Bingtan respect him. Other times, these people can't get in. The gate of Liu Mansion.

Master Liu once taught Wei Le that you can be honest but not noble.Everyone accepts it, but you don't accept it. Does it imply that everyone is not as honest as you?This is the rhythm of offending people properly, so he accepts these filial pieties.

But apart from these unspoken rules that everyone knows, he will not accept gifts given at other times.Even the emperor knew that when the water was clear, there would be no fish, so he turned a blind eye to the Three Festivals and Two Shou and Bing Tan Jing.

To be honest, the salaries of officials are really not high, like the kind of officials with a large family, the money is not enough for their family to eat, so these things are unavoidable, and the emperor does not really force all the officials under his name to pay Like Bao Qingtian, he is an upright official. If he can do his job well, seek benefits for the people of the world and not endanger Daqing, he is considered a good official.

As soon as Wei Le entered the Liu mansion, he found that it was quite big. This Liu mansion was bestowed by the emperor when Lord Liu took the position of minister. It turned out to be only a fifth-rank official. Naturally, the house in the capital was not very good, so it was reluctant. It is a three-entry, not too big, square, and even a small garden can be seen through at a glance.

And now this Wujin mansion located on Dongdajie was originally the house of a corrupt official whose house was confiscated. The emperor asked him to clean it up and gave it to Liu Hao.

Since it is a corrupt official's mansion, the other party must have done a good job, as long as it is tidied up a little bit, not to mention anything else, just the precious and beautiful flowers in the garden will make people look sideways.It is said that there used to be many ladies and ladies in the capital who would be proud to receive posts from this lady and lady, because in this way, they could go in and enjoy the rare and rare flowers in the capital.

But now only a few flowers are blooming, and more are still in buds. It is estimated that it will take half a month to fully fill the garden with flowers in full bloom.

Wei Le and Yi Feng entered the Haoran Courtyard, they not only changed their clothes and washed their hair, but also took a bath and hair, and had their hair wrung dry. Under the leadership of the butler, he headed towards the main room.

As for Brother Xiang Tian and Cheng Yong, they are in the guest house, and they are also tidying up themselves, and they are also going to visit the master's house.

The clothes and accessories are all prepared by the teacher's wife, because she knows that she doesn't care if Xiao Le wants to change into her own clothes, she is afraid that the wealthy people in the capital will despise Wei Lezhong.

Although it's not that people can't afford to wear them, they just don't want to wear such inconvenient clothes.

Wei Le is wearing a set of gold-and-white son's clothes, with white as the main color and gold trim, his hair is tied up with a ribbon of the same style, and a piece of ruby ​​the size of a baby's fist is also inlaid on it.

Yi Feng's clothes are similar to Wei Le's, but his clothes are mainly black with gold trim.The head is simply tied up with a black ribbon, and there is also a piece of sapphire the size of a baby's fist on it.

When the two entered the main room, maids came out to greet them on both sides, and the nanny next to the teacher's wife came out to open the curtain in person. Wei Le nodded to her.

"Thank you ma'am."

Wei Le and Yi Feng went in and bowed, and were supported by Mr. and Mrs.

"Finally, I have waited for you. How hard is the journey?"

The teacher's wife held Wei Le's hand, the mother and son were talking on one side, and the husband was sitting on the other side talking with Yi Feng. Except for a few cronies, everyone in the room was transferred out, and Xiaojin was still guarding the door. housekeeper.

"Not tired, just a little boring."

Wei Le also told about the fact that his grandfather went to Beijing with him. Hearing that he was being escorted to the carriage and chanting scriptures, his mother laughed happily.

Mammy is also rubbing and laughing, the young master's words are really interesting, no wonder the madam is always thinking about it, there is such a young master at home, I don't know how much laughter there is.

Unexpectedly, when those maids saw the young master, did their eyes straighten?But Mammy said their thoughts were in vain, they were all dressed up like elves, thinking Madam didn't notice.Just wait, after the young master's coronation ceremony, after the young master leaves the capital, these people should be cleaned up.

Madam said earlier, let the maids put away all their little thoughts, and no one is allowed to seduce the young master. If someone breaks the rules, don't blame Madam for not being sympathetic.

But who in this world can't have a pursuit, eight out of ten maidservants in the capital want to climb into the bed of the masters, the only difference is whether they are the head of the family or the young masters.

Because the master is watched by his wife, the wife has the final say outside the house, and the maids dare not make mistakes, so they all set their sights on the young master who just came to Beijing.In order to grab the job at Haoran Academy, everyone is about to break their heads.In the end, the madam directly ordered a few ordinary-looking, honest-looking maids with tight mouths to enter the Haoran courtyard. They had wrung and combed the hair for Wei Le and Yi Feng just now.

"Feng'er, how was your year in the countryside? Did anything happen?"

The husband knew that Wei Le reported good news but not bad news, the only thing he asked for was in front of him.It was just a message to the former Duke's family, asking the other party to pick up his wife back to Beijing, and not to disturb their Qingxiu in the Golden Buddha Temple.

As for what happened years ago, it can only be said that he was asked to pass a message to the emperor, not even helping.

Telling them about Lingyun Temple gave the emperor a big deal for nothing. In the end, his disciples didn't want anything except a few precious herbs.As a result, he has received a lot of rewards, and he also has the title of first-rank bachelor.It is a big step to change from the second rank to the first rank all of a sudden, and now there are many people in the court who envy him.

A few years ago, he was only a fifth-rank official, and he climbed from fifth rank to first rank in a few years. This is Mr. Liu that Jane refers to in the emperor's heart. The speed of promotion is really fast enough.

"No, Xiao Le teaches students at home every day, wanders around in her spare time, or goes to the Golden Buddha Temple to accompany her grandfather. She has never done anything else. The only time is that she was accidentally pulled to the ground by Brother Tian and hurt her foot."

Yi Feng briefly explained what happened, which made the husband feel relieved despite his distress. At any rate, the injury is not serious, and he will be fine after a short rest.

"That's good. His teacher's wife and I have been worried about Xiao Le for a year, for fear that he would be bullied. But with you by my side, it should be impossible." Later, what happened to the former Guogong's family proved that Wei Le was indeed In this way, it's fine if he doesn't bully others, but it's not his turn to be bullied by others.

Thinking of how he cheated a good duke and wife into reconciling with his husband, and even brought a dowry to become a monk. At that time, Mr. Liu was in a bad state, and he was laughed at by his wife!

"Hey, what Xiao Le said has some truth, Master Huiming will listen to it now! Master Huiming is the former Duke's wife, and now grandpa has accepted him as a disciple, so he is Xiao Le's uncle."

Yi Feng obviously also thought of Wei Le's eloquence, this is nothing but a blockbuster!

"Really? I didn't expect her to have such a fate." The husband was really surprised this time. Wei Le didn't write in the letter that Huiming was accepted as a disciple by the host. He might as well write more articles for his husband to comment on these. He is going to participate in Qiuwei this fall!

"Have you ever asked him about Qiu Wei, do you have confidence?" Although Mr. asked Yi Feng like this, in fact, his eyes were full of trust in his disciples. He had read all the articles written by Wei Le, which were very good. There must be something wrong with such a person failing the exam. It needs to be investigated carefully. Fraud in the imperial examination is absolutely not allowed.

"Xiao Le said..."

"Confidence? Of course I have it! Who in this world has more faith than me? Well, well, everything will be fine. Those who believe in me will have eternal life."

When Wei Le said this, he was full of confidence. The whole family was stunned by the words. In the end, for some reason, everyone was convinced that he would be able to live. Xiaoxue even made a big meal and said that he would celebrate in advance.

"..."

After hearing this, Mr. Mo wanted to hide his face a little bit.Is this really my disciple, that humble, cute and well-behaved disciple?

I have to admit that I really went astray back then, and didn't see Xiao Le's true face, how could she be cute, she was obviously a rascal!No reason can make him stir up some reason.

"Sir, you haven't told me yet, what about the Lingyun Temple? I'm waiting to hear what happens after they come back. It must be very interesting!"

Thinking of it suddenly, he asked his husband.

"Are you sure you want to know about this?"

There was a smile on the gentleman's face, probably thinking of the situation at that time, it was really funny.

"Of course, if you dare to scheme against me, it would be strange if you didn't take off a layer of their skin."

Wei Le was not happy, and actually made up his mind, he had to see a joke.

"Okay! Things are just as you think. They really didn't expect that we would send people to follow them. After they hit the treasure, they were frightened by the sudden army behind them. They could only look at a lot of treasures They were taken away by the official team without even a single piece of silver left behind. What's more interesting is that the people in Lingyun Temple hoped that what they brought back could make up for the loss in the temple. Mingyu and the others thought that anyway there were still some A small amount of gold and silver treasures, etc., although this treasure is lost, at least the people are fine, and the court did not settle accounts with them."

It wasn't until Master Mingyu and others returned to Lingyun Temple that the two sides met and realized that they had suffered heavy losses. The older monks were all stunned by anger, and the usually angry monk was even spit out by anger. For a while, Lingyun Temple was gloomy, and there was no trace of life in the whole temple.

Both parties had expectations for each other, and in the end they were all taken into the bag by the emperor. No matter what was in the Lingyun Temple or the original treasure they had worked so hard to find, it all belonged to the Emperor Daqing.

Although this kind of thing is a group of monks who have a lot of fame and fortune, even a group of people who are indifferent to fame and fortune will be greatly stimulated.

"Xiao Le, sir, what the emperor wants to ask you is what the emperor wants to ask you. It is said that the prophet of Lingyun Temple can know the first 500 years and the next 500 years. Didn't he figure out that they didn't get anything in the end of their trip, and they couldn't even escape from Lingyun Temple?" Have you survived a catastrophe?"

Sir, this is really curious. Didn’t it mean that his family’s prophet is very powerful?Why isn't he so powerful that he can calculate the catastrophe of his own temple!

"Hey~ I asked my grandfather, and he said that the oracle of Lingyun Temple misunderstood the secret of the sky, which was the result of deliberate misleading by the heavens. It is impossible for me to have normal hexagrams. Without me, they can still harvest huge treasures , Lingyun Temple will not suffer this catastrophe. However, what their prophets saw was that they would have greater gains if they had me. Grandpa didn't know this. Then there will be the catastrophe now, and you will really end up with nothing and no hope of becoming a monk."

Wei Le shrugged his shoulders, guessing that this is what Lingyun Temple did to make God calculate them like this, not only making their treasures invisible and untouchable, but also brought disaster to Lingyun Temple, and the warehouse was moved nine times It is the result of the emperor's benevolence, and only [-]% is left for them to operate. Otherwise, the emperor can punish them based on the property they have obtained through improper means over the years.

It's just that every operation of this Lingyun Temple makes people unable to catch them, so the emperor let them go. Although there is no treasure, [-]% of the treasures in the temple are gone, only [-]% and a few fields. It's okay, the temple is also staying, as long as they are good monks, they will not lack food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

But if they are still collecting money everywhere like before, the emperor will never keep these monks, and then they will be really unlucky!

Wei Le didn't sympathize with them, but in the final analysis, they didn't do well, they didn't do their own business, they thought how to enjoy the wealth and honor in the world, many officials were dragged into the water by them, and they did a lot of bad things in collusion.

In fact, for Wei Le, this Lingyun Temple should not be kept. Why keep this kind of temple?I don't know what the emperor thinks.Wei Le was not very satisfied with the emperor's actions, so he complained to his husband.

Mr. took a rare look at him and said.
