052 No way to go
After hearing Shi Zhongkui's agreement, Jia Baoyu was filled with joy and ups and downs, and Jia Zheng couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Meng's mother moved three times and made sense.
Only by making good teachers and friends can you make a villain like Baoyu spontaneously want to change it.
Even if the road to the imperial examinations is not going well in the future, it is a good thing to know more heroes with a bright future.
But within a few seconds, Jia Zheng sighed again, Shi Zhongkui studied behind closed doors, and the marriage had to be dragged on again.
However, this time Jia Zheng made up his mind and discussed it with his mother when he got home.
Even if you don’t marry Yingchun, it’s okay to replace it with Xue Baochai.
As for Lin Daiyu and her daughter Tanchun, they are still too young.
Even if the two got engaged at the age of 13, Shi Zhongkui might have won the championship in one fell swoop and became another son-in-law.
Yu Honggao took Shi Zhongkui and Yu Tongfu back to the main hall, gave a careful explanation, and simply asked his son to study in the farm.
The two are brothers, who enhance brotherhood and supervise and improve each other. In the future, they can also take care of each other as officials.
He sent Yu Honggao away, but before leaving, Yu Honggao did not forget to ask someone to carry Shi Guangzhu onto a carriage and send it back to the Duke Shanguo's mansion in the capital.
"Boqian, I shouldn't have come for my brother."
Shi Zhongkui gave Yu Tongfu a blank look. He knew that this guy couldn't bear to part with his wife and children. "Senior brother, why don't we drink a little more, and we won't have so many ideas after we get drunk."
"Farewell", Yu Tongfu quickly waved his hand, "I can't bear to drink, so I'll go and lie down for a while."
After taking a few steps, he turned around and said, "By the way, you don't have to hand me over dinner. I'll just send some porridge and side dishes to deal with."
Shi Zhongkui laughed and did not rush back to the yard. Instead, Yu Shun and a few servants followed him and walked slowly to the willow trees on the ditches and embankment of the farm, and looked at the flowing canal water and pondered.
Yu Shun and a few servants were so excited when they looked at Shi Zhongkui with his hands behind his back and his tall figure.
What is certain is that this disciple of his master will definitely be more famous after today.
Shun'er even thought that once fish farming in rice fields can really increase grain yield and harvest thousands of kilograms of fish.
Maybe the emperor may be happy and he may be granted the young master a hereditary title.
No matter whether it is a viscount or a baron, as long as it is a fifth-class title, it is a superb one.
The nominal grade is higher than the first grade, and the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulate that the hereditary title will be reduced to the level without military merit.
Even after surrendering, descendants can inherit the first-class general of Divine Power and the third-rank general of Viagra, which is equivalent to the glory and wealth of three generations and hundreds of years.
If you only consider Zishun's descendants, you will definitely be better than the prominent family that has passed down the poetry and books.
Unfortunately, this is just Shun'er's opinion. If Shi Zhongkui chooses, he will probably become a civil servant.
----
After Jia Zheng and others left, the news about Shi Zhongkui that Ye spread to the nobles and bureaucrats in the capital.
Moreover, in order to grab the favor of the recommendation, Gao Yongmin wrote a memorial and delivered it to him when he got home.
Not only did he write down the benefits and risks of raising fish in rice fields in detail, but he also wrote down all his experiences and heard today.
Then he wrote a letter to his immediate superior, the left minister of the Ministry of Works, and strongly asked the minister to be prepared to grab the person.
Of course, the letter will definitely not be written so bluntly, but the general meaning is almost the same.
The song "Painted Chicken" by Shi Zhongkui also spread throughout the capital. After Xia Shouzhong received the reward from his subordinates, he was so surprised that he almost didn't even hold his tea bowl.
Then he slapped his thighs, took the note handed over by his subordinates and entered Emperor Jinglong's imperial study.
Emperor Jinglong looked overjoyed after reading the letter. Not to mention the increase in grain production in the north, even if it only allowed the imperial court to collect hundreds of thousands of more grain from the south every year, it would be enough to temporarily alleviate the shortage of food and wages in the nine borders.
It can also reduce the grain prices at the end of the capital.
If the capital city could add more than 100,000 dan of grain every year, it would be enough to feed 10,000 or 20,000 new recruits.
Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but feel excited.
As for that poem, Emperor Jinglong thought about it carefully for a long time, but he did not feel that the poem had any rebellious meaning, and at most it could only be regarded as a scholarly spirit.
I think about Shi Zhongkui's past is not only poor, but his ancestral treasures were also stared at by many bad intentions. It has been suppressed for too long. Once he sees hope, Meng Lang and brag.
However, this poem is indeed good.
"I remember that Shi Aiqing from the Duke Shanguo Mansion and Jia Qing from the Rongguo Mansion both intend to recruit Shi Boqian as his son-in-law?"
Xia Shouzhong hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, this is indeed the case."
"Hmph", Emperor Jinglong snorted coldly, "How can my talent marry the daughter of a side branch?"
Xia Shouzhong immediately knew that the Duke Shanguo Mansion would not have the idea of attacking Shi Zhongkui. However, even Xia Shouzhong felt that the emperor had nothing to do with the emperor's words.
The emperors personally said that Shi Zhongkui was a talented person and had a great future. Why did he marry a daughter from a side branch who was not even as good as a concubine?
If you want to blame, Shi Huaiyong is only Shi Guangzhu, and Shi Guangzhu's slut is over thirty years old. He has more than a dozen wives and concubines in his family, but he has only given birth to a son who is only 7 years old.
As for Yu Honggao, unless Shi Zhongkui requested it himself, his teacher would not allow his personal disciple to marry the Yu family's side branch.
Yu Honggao's wife Yu Shishi was even more unlikely to do this. It was not about getting married, but about divorcing the relationship between master and apprentice.
The Jia family went to the Duke of Shanguo's mansion to ask about the reason why Shi Zhongkui's marriage was fruitless. It was probably because there was a suitable age at the home of a brother Yu Honggao.
Emperor Jinglong had never thought about raiding the Jia family and other nobles' homes.
After all, the Supreme Emperor was not dead yet. The feudal dynasty that ruled the world with filial piety did not agree with it. Once Emperor Jinglong's government orders were contrary to the Supreme Emperor, they would be issued with a strong man.
It is equivalent to publicly telling the two emperors of the court and the opposition to fight, which will definitely damage Emperor Jinglong's majesty and make the world feel that he is unfilial.
All of this consequences may shake Emperor Jinglong's legitimacy and dominance.
So much so that Emperor Jinglong has done so in recent years that the emperor is cautious and walking on thin ice.
The Jia family was confiscated in the Red Chamber after the Supreme Emperor returned to heaven.
Therefore, Emperor Jinglong actually hoped to win over them at this time.
The emperor knew very well that without military power, everything is rootless.
Among the Eight Dukes, the Jia family was the most influential because they had Duke Ning Guo and Duke Rong Guo.
At that time, Jia Daishan was the governor of the Jingying, and had many disciples and old friends. Now, Prince Teng, the relative of the Jia family, is Jia Zheng's elder brother-in-law, and he is also in the position of the governor of the Jingying.
This made Emperor Jinglong think of constantly testing.
Yuanchun’s title of concubine and visiting relatives are actually all tests.
Unfortunately, the Jia family and Wang Ziteng actually didn't have much room for improvement. They defected to the emperor and offended the Supreme Emperor.
People are suspicious when they get old, let alone the Supreme Emperor passed the throne to Emperor Jinglong because he was sick and thought he was about to die.
As a result, he recovered from his illness and became the Supreme Emperor. This suspicion and attachment to power became even stronger.
If the Jia family and Wang Ziteng dare to surrender to Emperor Jinglong, the Supreme Emperor will kill them first, otherwise it will be a chain reaction.
