Chapter Five Hundred and Seventy-Three Pro-virtuous ministers, far-flung villains!

The scene of the Marquis of Shouning Hou getting married was even worse than Xu Xun's marriage.

After all, he was the queen mother's nephew, even Li Dongyang, the chief minister of the cabinet, and he had to give face. After the young emperor ordered people to go to the cabinet, he could not help but write a hundred-year-old banner and sent it to him. Jiao Fang's attitude was more attentive than Li Dongyang. He personally visited the Shouning Hou Mansion to congratulate him on that day, and in addition to sending a corresponding scene of the multi-son and blessing clay man, there was also a precious jade ornament, which made Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning. However, Wang Yang, who is known as the poor master of the world, was not so smooth. Although the palace brought out words, he was still in charge of the cabinet, neither giving gifts nor congratulations. Several officials of the Secretariat persuaded him tactfully, but he was just a righteous and stern sentence.

"Mr. Shouning and I have no personal relationships and are not relatives. What can I do to congratulate?"

Li Dongyang had known this colleague's habits for a long time and had not persuaded him in the morning. Seeing the several Zhongshu Shepherds who were going to persuade him, he could not think about Liu Jin, who had been defeated by Xu Xun's high-salary banquet that day, but he had not acted. He just looked at the memorials delivered by various departments with one mind. He suddenly stopped as he flipped over, and then put down one copy of the memorials he had swept before, and in a short while he found out four or five copies.

All of these were recommended by Lin Junding, the former deputy censor of Nanjing, and the former deputy censor of Nanjing, and those officials who recommended them were all from Jiangxi. Thinking of the case that Yang Shen reported that day, and now Lin Jun, who is hated by Ning Wang, Li Dongyang seemed to see the shadow of a little fox.

Although the four gentlemen in Nandu are friends, three of them are on Xu Xun's side, the fourth and the most powerful one. God knows if they have already boarded the little fox's pirate ship!

Thinking of this, Li Dongyang couldn't help but throw the memorial in his hand irritated. If Yang Tinghe could enter the cabinet, he would not only share a lot of pressure for him, but also with his perseverance and capable personality. He would not offend others like Wang Yang, and he would not have fought alone. But now that Yang Tinghe was seriously worried about Liu Jin because of Yang Shen, he would never be sure whether the methods he had prepared to push Yang Tinghe into the cabinet could work.

"Yuanfu."

When he looked up, he saw that he was his disciple and was about to be transferred to the Secretary for the Imperial College. Li Dongyang nodded slightly and asked, "Today, the Prince of Shouning Hou got married. How many people are there in each department to join in the fun?"

"That is, those of the confidants of Eunuch Liu's confidants have gone." Lu Duo said bluntly. Seeing Li Dongyang's strange expression, he explained, "Those who are respected by Linbu Hall, Xiebu Hall, Zhang Duxian, did not go. Of course, the Marquis of Xing'an, Pingbei, were the guests at the Marquis of Shouning in the past. The father and son and wife all went there, and even the daughter who was not very old in their family took them there. I heard that royal relatives like Ruren and Princess, also went to support them. And..."

Lu Duo paused, and then whispered: "Someone saw Eunuch Liu bringing people out of the palace, and there were quite a few young eunuchs among them. I don't know if the emperor was mixed in it."

"Even if the emperor goes, the empress dowager can only be happy. After all, it is her nephew who is getting married and she cannot come here in person. The emperor goes to join in the fun, which is also giving face to the Zhang family."

Li Dongyang sighed lightly, and after thinking about it, he stood up. Seeing this, Lu Duo couldn't help asking: "Is Yuan Fu going to the Zhang family of Marquis of Shouning?"

"It's too late to join in the fun at this time, and I won't be so moved. Today I'm going to rest, so I'll go back to my house to relax my muscles and bones!" Speaking of this, Li Dongyang turned his head and looked at Lu Duo and said, "You go and call Erxi and have a few others. Come to your home to learn about the articles. If you have any good articles recently, please give me some comments!"

"That's great. But it's been a long time since the teacher's words were rated!"

Lu Duo was overjoyed when he heard this, nodded and watched Li Dongyang go out. After he went back to hand over all his affairs, he immediately went straight to Hanlin Academy and called a few fellow disciples who also came from Li Dongyang's sect. He went out and galloped out along the Dongjiang Mi Lane. But when he arrived at Yongfang, he happened to run into Yang Shen, who had a lot of worries from the opposite alley. He was very close to this young junior brother who was very talented from the same school. At this time, he immediately went to the Hanlin Academy and smiled and shouted, "Use Xiu, Master Master will come to his private house to learn writing today. Since you have caught up, why don't you go together?"

"Um?"

Yang Shen looked up and saw that after recognizing Lu Duo, he opened his mouth and was about to agree, but finally shook his head and said, "I have something to do today, so I won't go to visit the teacher with Senior Brother Zhenzhi. Please say hello to the teacher for me."

From the previous literary meeting, Li Mengyang was the most popular, and the young Yang Shen, who won the championship the most, was the young one. He was the most enthusiastic in such occasions on weekdays. Therefore, when Lu Duo saw his distracted look, he was very suspicious. But he also heard that Yang Shen would go back to Sichuan to participate in the provincial examination recently and get married. He had to joke with him. When the person forced himself to greet him for a while, he turned around and left. He raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Could it be that the incident that happened in the Xu Mansion before that made this junior brother discouraged?

Yang Shen has gone around to say goodbye to Li Dongyang in the past two days, but when he heard Li Dongyang go home and ask for advice, he stepped back. After all, even though he knew that he was in trouble, he still had to listen to others' praises and praises. No matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't handle himself. However, when he returned to his house with a lot of worries, he just crossed the threshold, and heard a rush of horse hooves coming from behind. When he looked back, he saw three people in front of him. In front of him was an eunuch wearing a round neck shirt of sunflower patches, and two were dressed as a little fireman.

"The emperor has a reward!"

This is not the New Year or the Festival, why did an angel suddenly offer rewards?

Someone immediately came out from the Yang family's door. Seeing that it was Yang Shen standing there blankly, an old gatekeeper reminded kindly: "Young Master, today, the master is on duty in the Zhanshi Mansion. Your family is the largest. Please welcome him quickly!"

As soon as these words were said, Yang Shen came over and didn't care about the fact that Xu Xun's previous words had come true. He quickly directed the whole process to prepare for a matter. When he finally arranged everything, he led the rest of the Yang family to kneel in the middle of the yard. Then he heard the angel's slow voice.

"The emperor ordered that Yang Tinghe, the young master of Zhan Shi's office and the great minister of Zuo Chunfang, has always been well-educated and has outstanding moral character. He has rewarded two kilograms of new tea and a set of imperial kiln tea sets. His son Yang Shen dared to speak out and was very talented, and would be subject to the provincial examination. Now he was awarded the imperial etiquette and sealed a set of new books, four books and five classics, two hundred small papers, and four treasures in the study to enhance his color."

This inappropriate oral order made the Yang family look at each other, and Yang Shen also knelt there, feeling mixed in his heart. However, what he didn't expect was that when he took the thing from the angel in a daze, the other party did not say any complimentary words, but smiled and said, "There is no need to serve tea. Can Mr. Yang take a step to speak?"

Although Yang Shen didn't like to deal with eunuchs, he didn't want to force himself in such unnecessary places. He immediately nodded with a stiff face. When the others retreated a little, he was taking a deep breath to calm down, but the next sentence of the inner official immediately knocked him back to his original form.

"Mr. Yang. The emperor has just arrived at the Marquis of Shouning and is ready to come out after the wedding banquet. Now he is a little empty. He wants to ask Mr. Yang to come over and talk." The inner official said this and smiled with a smile on his face, "You are so good at teaching Mr. Yang that Mr. Yang will learn that Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Pingbei are all present."

If it were the past, Yang Shen would have agreed without thinking. He would have been given a strong advice from the emperor. But at this moment, after taking a deep breath, he finally bowed solemnly and said, "I'll ask my father-in-law to report to the emperor. The white dragon fish dress is not a virtuous king, but I'll ask my relatives to be close to the virtuous ministers and stay away from villains. Don't go out to the deep palace to travel for happiness easily. The students are just people with shallow moral character and shall never dare to obey the imperial edict!"

Faced with such an answer, Ruisheng suddenly widened his eyes and sighed that Xu Xun was really amazing and could guess ten times. He looked at Yang Shen thoughtfully for a while, and finally nodded with respect and said, "Okay, I will definitely bring you these words from Mr. Yang. I just hope that Mr. Yang will be able to pass the test in Sichuan and get the first prize in the next year!"

It is already evening, and the Shouning Marquis Mansion is filled with laughter. Although the bride has not yet been welcomed back, what the guests care about most today is not whether the bride of the Zhang family is beautiful, but what Zhang Zong cares about is that he said he married the daughter of Cao Xiong, the general general of Guyuan. The relationship between the Cao family and Xu Xun is already a well-known secret. At this moment, Zhang Zong, who had been in front of the spring breeze, said that he had disappeared, but the guests did not care. Instead, he surrounded Xu Liang, the Xing'an Marquis who was also a guest, and asked.

"Horse Xing'an, the son is a marquis at such an age. He will definitely have a bright future in the future! Now your son is promising and his granddaughter is also there. There is no other worry. Why not find a harmonious house to fill in, and to have a companion for the rest of his life?" The person who said this was Marquis Wu'an, who lives next to the Xu family of the Xing'an Marquis' Mansion, whose face almost said that I had a good niece.

"That's it. The scenery of father and son in this family is rare from ancient times to the present. With the emperor's favor for the Marquis of Pingbei, he will inevitably give him another house in the future. At that time, wouldn't it be lonely for you to live alone? Besides, your family's population is too thin. If you have a son and a half daughter, the family will be more lively." The person who said this was the British Duke Zhang Mao. The old man did not look like a pimp, but he had many favors. He was forced to express his opinions when he heard this topic.

As everyone was persuading each other, Xu Liang initially returned the troops to block the water and soil, and blocked them in a vague manner. But gradually, more people talked, his heart became brighter, and he suddenly said with a smile: "When I was poor and humble, I was always with my deceased wife. Now she is gone, I have wealth and my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter. If I want to marry a young man, I will really feel sorry for it. If I really want to drink a bowl of sashimi soup and spend the rest of my life with me peacefully, I will not be able to consider it."

This sentence immediately scared most of the people around him away. Xu Liang was almost fifty years old, and he put his niece and even daughter on it in order to borrow the current popularity of the Xu family. If he had luckily given birth to another son, the title of Xing'an Marquis would naturally be divided. However, Xu Xun's straightforward word "Juezi Tang" clearly stated that as long as the person next to him did not want to have children, isn't this disgusting? Despite this, there were still three or four people left there, and he said that even if there were such conditions, he could still consider it.

Faced with such a slutty character, Xu Liang suddenly had a headache. Fortunately, Duke Ding Guo Xu Guangzuo found an excuse to pull him out of the right and wrong circle. When he arrived in a secluded corner, he whispered in a low smile: "I say Xing'an Marquis, although your idea is cruel, the people who are competing with the dragon and the phoenix cannot stop it. Those inhumane father-in-laws are still rushed to send it, let alone you?"

Xu Liang was stunned when he heard this. However, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure on the other side and tiptoed over. It was clearly Ruisheng. He immediately realized that there was one of the most noble guests here today. So he made a haha ​​and broke the topic and said with a smile: "Duke Ding knows why there are so many guests today?"

"Then you have to say it? Shouning Hou is the queen mother's younger brother and the emperor's legitimate uncle. Besides, Zhang Zong said that the kid is the proud beloved general of your son. Even if some straight ministers can refuse to give him the face, your son's face is not enough." Xu Guangzuo said this directly, and then said with a smile, "Apart from that, everyone knows that the emperor likes to join in the fun. Don't you want to see if you can meet the emperor here and make a familiar face? Otherwise, how could there be so many noble children today? In addition to the prince, Wu'an Hou brought even a few older nephews and grandsons!"

"It's not that easy to be familiar with this kind of face." Xu Liang smiled and winked with Xu Guangzuo, and then said meaningfully, "Although the emperor is so lucky, no one just comes to him. If Duke Ding wants to do it, what if I take you back?"

Ding Guo Duke Xu Guangzuo had been hanging out with such a crazy grandfather for decades, but he didn't even have such a wink. Knowing that Xu Liang was giving him a favor with his petition, he immediately agreed with a smile. When he came to the back hall without any obstacles, he heard a voice that was unyielding.

"No one can persuade me. Today, my bridal chamber is in a state of confusion!"
