Chapter 636

The next day, several carriages appeared 66 outside the villa where Wang Xun lived in seclusion, breaking the tranquility of this alley. Several middle-aged men, wearing Confucian shirts or wearing official uniforms, came to the doorman to hand in prayer letters for their visits. This was a few times when Wang Xun first came to Jiazhou, but Wang Xun rarely saw guests. In addition, he did not hold an official position in the court, so few people came to visit. Today, I don’t know why so many people came. The doorman dared not neglect to invite these visitors to the doorman to sit in a while, and hurriedly took the visitor letter to the garden where Wang Xun was recuperating.?

"Master, a guest is here." The housekeeper took the call from the door, glanced a few times and came to the pool, whispering to Wang Xunhui, who was fishing, for fear of disturbing his good mood. Seeing Wang Xun open his eyes slightly, the housekeeper quickly read it out in a low voice, "The head of the Ministry of Rites Zeng Xianze, and the Minister of Taichang Temple Yan Sihui."

Although the visitor did not state the official position of the visitor, only the name, the housekeeper tried hard to point out their identities. If Wang Xun consulted, he could even memorize the origins, learning, and background of these people one by one. This is the foundation of a thousand-year-old family, which is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary families.

Before he could finish his words, Wang Xun waved his hand to stop the butler's report, "No, when you go out, you say I felt a little cold recently. The doctor said that I need to rest and not meet guests, so beat them up."

The housekeeper wanted to speak but stopped. Although he felt that Wang Xun's decision seemed to be a little inappropriate, he still responded in a low voice out of his usual obedience, and then took these famous posts out to Zeng Xianze, Yan Sihui and others politely.

"Mr. Wang is a little sick. We juniors should really go to visit us." Zeng Xianze, Yan Sihui and others were still a little unwilling to accept it. They didn't expect that Wang Xun would not even give them a chance to meet. They didn't feel uncomfortable if they had thought of anything they had thought before coming.

"Please forgive me. The doctor said that the master needs to rest, and it is really not suitable to meet guests." The official continued to apologize, but said that he would not let these people in. In desperation, Zeng Xianze and his group could only leave embarrassedly. Of course, there were also those who were unwilling to wait in the doorman. The butler also ordered people to send tea and snacks to greet them one by one.

Later, the news spread, and Wang Ji, who was unknown, hurried to greet him. When he was taken into the study by the housekeeper, he saw Wang Xun leisurely playing chess in the study. He looked a little sick. He couldn't help but wonder, "Father, this is it."

"Just avoid suspicion." Wang Ji couldn't help but shake his head. His child was still a little young. He didn't even see such an obvious situation. However, this is really an important reason why he stayed in Jiazhou. He asked Wang Ji to sit down and slowly analyzed it to him, "What good intentions do you think these people have when they come to visit?"

Wang Ji, who calmed down, began to frown and think. Wang Xun didn't remind him. He was still looking at the chaotic chess game and thinking about countermeasures. After three more sons, Wang Ji raised his head again, "Father, this matter should be related to Qi Huizhi."

Wang Xun nodded slightly and signaled Wang Ji to continue speaking. Wang Ji, who was encouraged, became bolder. "Since Qi Huizhi went south to take office as Minister of Rites, there have been many people in the market. Previously, those unsuccessful officials went to visit his mansion. I heard that they wanted to persuade the Taiwei to change the strategy of the imperial examination and restore the old system. My son thought that these people wanted to persuade the father to write a letter with them, and wanted to use his father's reputation and his current official position to make the Taiwei change his decision."

Thinking of this, Wang Ji couldn't help but shake his head. Now the government is under the control of Li You. King Fu never cared about major affairs of the government and only played in the harem. Those officials did not have much real power, so it was not easy to restore the old system? When he thought of this, he felt relieved of Wang Xun's staying up. It is indeed not suitable to be involved with these people now. "The father has a deep thought, but his son is far from enough."

"Just think of this?" Wang Xun was a little disappointed. "Didn't you see that when Zhou Shou resigned from office, neither Jiazhou nor Changhua, did you see that Mr. Yao did not stop Qi Hui from taking office? And what did Jiazhou say when he visited Jiazhou University? What you see are just some superficial things, and these are the key to solving the current situation."

"Father!" Wang Ji felt a stern when he heard this, and the slightest moment had disappeared. These questions were something he had never thought about. Now it seems that he is still far from his father.

"From now on, Confucianism will probably be as self-controlled as nearly a thousand years ago." Wang Ji sighed slightly, not knowing whether it was for the decline of Confucianism or the future of the Wang family. "The reason why Zhou Shou resigned was because he saw this clearly and did not want to affect the future of his grandson because of his own relationship. Jiazhou Bo and Chang Hua Bo understood this and then responded. And Mr. Yao had such a complete plan in the capital and Yunzhou, how could he not see what Qi Huizhi would have after taking office as Minister of Rites? Why didn't he stop it? Sima Cuo's secret spies were everywhere in the world. Why did he ignore Qi Huizhi, who had doubts about his whereabouts? It is obvious that they were laying out a big picture."

"Master Taiwei and Mr. Yao want to take this opportunity to suppress the power of the Confucian sect again!" Wang Ji suddenly realized this, and thought of Li You's remarks in Jiazhou University in the past that he raised many miscellaneous subjects, and the answer was about to come out.

"That's right!" He could see these so quickly, and not be distraught because of the suppression of Confucianism, his son still made him a little satisfied. "Although I can't see through what kind of government structure the Jiazhou Bo wanted to establish, it can be seen from the fact that the situation of the three-legged nobles, aristocratic families, and poor families in the past is no longer applicable."

Any new system replaces the old system is inevitable with bloody storms, countless high-ranking officials appear, and wealthy families are destroyed. Didn’t Yang Jiefu’s previous solution to the nobles ruin hundreds of thousands of lives? There are countless such things in history books.
