Chapter 392 The little helper threw it into the bowl again
After Qian Qianyi finished speaking, like many confident and extraordinary scribes in this era, he squinted his eyes and his gaze seemed to become deeper and deeper.
He pursed his lips again, raised the corners of his mouth, and the beard on his chin, which had not yet turned white, fluttered slightly in the spring breeze.
All these facial decorations seem to be more eager than waiting for customer acceptance, waiting for surprise responses such as "Juniors have long admired the name" and "Mr. is the most talented in the south of the Yangtze River".
This is a display that Qian Qianyi is already familiar with.
He is a son of an aristocratic family, and he is also the most beautiful person in the examination room. Although he has been idle for ten years and lectures in his hometown, who in the southern Zhili area does not know his importance?
If he hadn't been well-known among the scholars, how could Zhao Nanxing have tried his best to persuade Mr. Ye Ge to recruit him to compile the "Records of Shenzong" even after the great talent of Donglin got into trouble of cheating in the examination room?
However, there was no spark in the eyes of the woman opposite her, and her expression only seemed to be reminiscing about something.
After a brief silence, Zheng Haizhu finally spoke: "It turns out to be Mr. Mu Zhai. I heard Mr. Huang say it several times."
Qian Qianyi was unhappy: Do I need Huang Zunsu's words to express my reputation? You started your career from Nanzhili, how could you not know about me?
This Zheng family, as Zhao Nanxing said, in addition to being on good terms with Huang Zunsu and Lu Xiangsheng, he did not even bother to pretend to be complimentary to the real masters and backbones of their Donglin sect.
"Oh, Huang Zunsu," Qian Qianyi said, trying to show the demeanor of a courteous corporal, "he told me about my wife's situation. After hearing this, I felt that it was not easy for my wife. A woman could actually enter the Wenhua Hall to give lectures."
What a familiar recipe.
It seems emotional, but in fact it is dwarfing.
Zheng Haizhu smiled faintly: "Indeed, thanks to the two masters Yang and Zuo, as well as Sun Hanlin, who took care of me, this junior can become the prince's master."
"Well, in this case, I want to test you." Qian Qianyi continued to add ingredients to his recipe. "Do you know what happened in the Wenhua Palace when the current emperor was still the prince?"
"Juniors don't know."
"You haven't been in the officialdom for a long time, so you don't know about it, and it's not surprising. At that time, the saint had just passed the age of 18 and entered the Wenhua Hall to study. There was an official who didn't understand the rules. After paying homage to the saint Kong, he stood on a pair of bronze cranes.
Behind. This is a big taboo. Fortunately, the Holy Father has been kind-hearted since he was a child. He signaled the attendants to quietly move the bronze crane, so that the lecturer stood in front of the crane. After hearing this story today, Madam should say that she and the Prince reconciled.
Wang listens.”
Zheng Haizhu nodded: "Okay, I will take note of this. In the Wenhua Palace today, I have not seen the pair of bronze cranes that Mr. Qian mentioned. However, as a teacher, I can ask the prince and prince of the Ming Dynasty to think about it."
Think about it, the so-called "benevolence" is not hung on the lintel like a restaurant sign, but should be put into words and deeds. After all, the fake crane is just a ritual vessel, and the false name is just a cloud. Treating living people kindly is the demeanor of a wise king.
This is what we scholars strive for diligently.”
As Qian Qianyi listened, he felt something was wrong.
"Restaurant sign"? "Fake crane"?
Could this woman be mocking the "Heting Tower" named after Zhao Nanxing?
Qian Qianyi would never reflect on the ridiculousness of talking about Tonghe's past to show his qualifications. He only concluded that Zheng Haizhu was indeed small-minded and refused to suffer even the slightest lesson.
Only when he thought of the interests of the sect that Zhao Nanxing had explained, did he not darken his face. He waved his sleeves and said, "Madam, you are enlightened. You are good. You go and do your work. I am also going to the National History Museum."
Zheng Haizhu bowed and said goodbye.
As if matching the rhythm of her thoughts, she walked towards the Wenhua Palace slightly slower than before.
Today, I finally got to know Qian Qianyi.
The anecdotes familiar to later generations, such as "the water is too cold to drink", "itchy scalp, shave your head" and other anecdotes related to this important figure in Donglin in the late Ming Dynasty, are true or false, and they reflect his cowardice and despicability of living in the Qing Dynasty.
It still shows his unique wisdom of turning against the Qing Dynasty. Zheng Haizhu can just make a sign in his heart.
After all, there are still twenty years before the Qing army invades Jiangnan recorded in historical data. Don't use your precious brain space to analyze those.
What needs to be considered now is Qian Qianyi's next career arrangements.
Throughout the dynasties, compiling the "Records" for the late emperors was often a springboard for civil servants to get promoted.
Qian Qianyi now belongs to the "Chunfang Official" category, which not only avoids the "Beijing Inspector" that has just been launched, but also means that his official position is noble and he can be close to members of the royal family.
Thinking again that Sun Chengzong was transferred to become a feudal official, and Zhao Nanxing was already the Minister of Rites, Zheng Haizhu guessed that Donglin's strategy was to follow the path of the emperor's master and the Forbidden City think tank, and let Qian Qianyi replace Sun Chengzong.
When Qian Qianyi was working as the chief examiner of the provincial examination in Jiangnan last year, he encountered a case of fraud in the examination room. He was blamed for it and was suspended at home.
Even so, it didn't take long for the court to bring him to the capital again. Zheng Haizhu believed that it was not just Zhao Nanxing's great energy.
The story of Bronze Crane!
Zheng Haizhu suddenly stopped.
Yes, it's funny how Qian Qianyi, a middle-aged man in officialdom, behaves like a slut, but what he said is not without inspiration.
Zhu Changluo, who was in his early ten years old, behaved like that. It was not necessarily because he had grown a Buddha's intestines, but perhaps more because of the environment he grew up in, which made him have a deep heart.
Such a person, who came to power at the age of forty, will never be at the mercy of his ministers after passing the inexperienced period of political administration.
When Zhu Changluo summoned her, Zheng Haizhu, to discuss matters, he always praised her achievements in defense, diplomacy and fiscal revenue with a smile. He did not hesitate to praise her with praises such as "My daughter Zhuge" and "Taichang Zhang Juzheng".
Yes, and also approved her proposal on personnel arrangements for Shang Zhouzuo, Xiong Tingbi, and Yang Lian.
But as soon as he turned around, Zhu Changluo probably discussed with Wang An that if he left a Donglin and entered a Zhejiang and a Chu, he would have to enter another Donglin.
"Confusing different opinions" and "checking and balancing parties" are the eternal key points in the emperor's mind.
This is a good thing for Zheng Haizhu. After all, she is also a faction, which is different from the Qi Chu Zhe Party, the Dong Lin Party, and the Western Learning Party.
The more mature Emperor Zhu Changluo has the imperial mentality, the more likely it is that her path to the imperial court will be paved.
"Master Zheng, what are you laughing at?"
After half a stick of incense, Zhu Youjian, who was playing with the mature camel gun mount in the yard outside the Cultural Hall, suddenly saw a strange smile on Zheng Haizhu's face and asked in surprise.
Zheng Haizhu was sorting out what he said when he met Zhou Zuo, the next Minister of Civil Affairs. When he heard Zhu Youjian's words, he was busy reflecting on himself.
Take care of your baby seriously and don't get distracted by the intrigues in the court.
"Oh, I am thinking that one day, your little cannon on a wooden stand will be particularly powerful when it blasts those arrogant silver-armored Bagaras of the Tatars outside the Great Wall, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere."
Zhu Youjian also showed off his appearance.
Master Zheng often smiles in front of the two brothers, but Zhu Youjian still remains rare for this smiling face.
Empress Dongli, the adoptive mother, was so dignified that she even showed a reserved style. The last time she smiled was because Zhu Youjian received a letter from the king's imperial edict.
For twelve-year-old Zhu Youjian, being crowned king was not something worth cheering for.
He liked the moment even more, when Master Zheng stared at the results of their artillery mounts, smiling out of his heartfelt admiration and sincere thoughts.
A smile that proves how awesome the results he cares about are.
With this relaxing and exciting smile, Zhu Youjian blurted out: "Master Zheng, can you take me with you next time you go out of Beijing?"
Zheng Haizhu stopped laughing and studied the students' microexpressions.
Zhu Youjian was a little surprised, but he still boldly expressed his wish: "I am a prince now. If I go to the vassal territory to join the country, don't I have to leave the capital? The master always said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Why can the master talk to the emperor? Brother can go to Lu, and still allow him to do so many interesting things, but I can only stay in the Wenhua Palace?"
Zheng Haizhu glanced at Lu Xiangsheng and Zhu Youxiao who were renovating the battleship model by the pond, and said sincerely: "Your Highness is very good at asking questions. It was me, the teacher, who was negligent. I always feel that Your Highness is still a child."
Zhu Youjian said hurriedly: "First, I did not blame the master; second, I am not young anymore..."
"Third, do you want to go to Datong to see it?" Zheng Haizhu returned to his smile.
Zhu Youjian opened his mouth slightly and said happily: "If you want, if you want, go to Datong where Master Lu works."
He suddenly paused and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Brother Huang said that he told you how to retain Master Lu, but you severely reprimanded him. Master Zheng, in fact, asked Master Lu to be the princess's consort. , it was my bad idea."
Zheng Haizhu pursed his lips and said, "Your imperial brother did not betray you."
Zhu Youjian looked at the prince's brother Zhu Youxiao, who was almost as tall as Lu Xiangsheng and was walking by the pond, and frowned again.
"Master Zheng, various places are already selecting concubines for the prince. I have something to worry about. At present, Concubine Li has moved to Yikun Palace and has taken away all the capable and diligent old maids to serve her. The prince lives alone in Ciqing
If there are concubines and heirs in the palace, will the first guest Yinyue return to the palace in the name of being good at taking care of women and children?"
Zheng Haizhu couldn't help but click her tongue secretly.
No wonder it is said that Emperor Chongzhen was the most suspicious in history. Look at Zhu Youjian, who has not even grown a beard in front of him, how good he is at making assumptions.
Well, the association is very good. I will continue to associate next time. Not only must I be able to think of stories, but I must also be able to tell them.
Zheng Haizhu then stared into Zhu Youjian's eyes: "Your Highness's worries are also my concern. Then, let's take precautions. For those who have tried to kill your biological mother, we can set up a trap the first time, and we can set up a trap the second time.
.Also, we need to deal with her internal agents in the palace. After that is done, you can go to Datong in peace and contentment to find Master Lu and watch them train troops."
