It is said that Jia Cong guessed a lot of troubles in King Zhao's royal family and analyzed it with Kong Yunxian. Young Master Kong's house was clean, and he was very emotional. Jia Cong laughed and said: "Let's go back to the post house to talk about business with that person." The two of them then
Leaving the teahouse.
Just as he got off his horse at the entrance of the post house, a man who looked like a waiter came up to him from the roadside. Jia Cong's guards immediately stopped him. The waiter shouted loudly: "Third Master, this subordinate belongs to the Fifth Master." Jia Cong was busy.
He was ordered to let him come over. The man cupped his hands and said, "I have been ordered to follow the Crown Prince of Zhao all the way. The Fifth Master asked his subordinates to send a letter to the Third Master before the Third Master meets the Crown Prince of Zhao for the second time." He took out the letter.
.
The corner of Jia Cong's mouth twitched: "Uncle Wu is definitely the best at playing tricks in our family." He took the letter and opened it at the door of the post house to read. After reading it, he thought for a moment and then ordered, "Send a telegram to Uncle Wu and ask.
He said: What if we go up to the house and take out the elevator?"
The waiter said: "Go back to the third master. The fifth master said that after reading the letter, the third master will probably mention the farmer and the snake, the ladder in the house and other allusions. Let the subordinates tell the third master to just rest assured. These things will never happen, even if
He also has a way to deal with it."
Jia Cong murmured: "He is so confident. What else can he say?"
"No more," said the waiter, "I have to go buy some goods." He handed over and left.
Jia Cong waved goodbye to him, and Fang led Kong Yunxian into the post house and went straight to Prince Zhao's courtyard.
The courtyard door was not closed, and at the door one could hear babbling sounds inside. Looking up, Zhao Shizi was standing in the courtyard singing an opera. The losers he brought sat around and clapped their hands and cheered. Jia Congsheng was the one who swept the people.
Xing, strode in and said: "What a good thing! The smoky throat is obviously from eating too much wine, not to mention it is unpleasant."
Prince Zhao immediately stopped and said angrily: "If you have the ability, sing one!"
Jia Cong crossed his hands and said, "Don't I know how to do it?" He opened his mouth and said, "I want to love you even to the death~~ It won't be happy if it's not full and vivid..."
Zhao Shizi's face looked as if he was struck by lightning. After a while, he pointed at him and shouted: "You still have the nerve to say that my singing is unpleasant?! What are you talking about? Howling like a ghost or a wolf?"
Kong Yunxian suddenly remembered that Shen Zhimo had solemnly said that Jia Cong must be stopped immediately if he let himself go, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't we have something serious to do?"
"Oh, yes. Serious business." Jia Cong originally wanted to have a few words with the prince, but since someone came out to disturb him, that was all.
Prince Zhao looked at Kong Yunxian and hummed, "Your Majesty, you are very capable." He turned around and entered the house. Jia Cong and others followed.
After the guests and hosts were seated, Jia Cong first raised his hands and said, "Your Highness, the young king has roughly guessed what happened in your country."
Prince Zhao sneered twice: "You are really smart."
Jia Cong looked around and said, "Please ask them to get out."
"No need." Prince Zhao said, "These are all my people." Jia Cong glanced sideways at him. Prince Zhao said seriously, "Lord Liu Quan recruited them for me. They are extremely reliable."
Jia Cong thought for a while and said, "But the one who is very good at talking and coaxes my cousin into turning around?"
"Exactly." Prince Zhao smiled and said, "Does Your Majesty know why others think he looks like your cousin?"
Jia Cong opened his mouth but said nothing. Isn't it because he inherited the same person's genes? "Is there another reason why they look alike?"
Prince Zhao said proudly: "Because they are both wearing the same clothes! They both have a Confucian attitude, and their descriptions are somewhat similar. If they are wearing the same clothes and under the candlelight, others will look at them very seriously.
Looks like it."
Jia Cong twitched the corner of his mouth twice and said: "...I see. You, Master Liu An, are so cunning." Prince Zhao laughed. Jia Cong really didn't know what was so funny about this, so he waited expressionlessly.
After Zhao Shizi finished laughing, Jia Cong said, "Let's discuss serious matters. Although you are not King Zhao's son, you are still in name. The territory is not small. Do you really don't want to make the lie come true?"
Zhao Shizi was stunned for a moment and said: "I don't want to." He crossed his legs and said, "I have never learned how to govern a country. No one taught me how to urinate. Besides, governing a country is very tiring."
"Didn't King Zhao teach you?"
Prince Zhao lazily said: "He is not free. Sir, it was all arranged by the old witch."
Jia Cong frowned and looked at him: "Then you have to find something to do when you are young. The first King of Chu devoted himself to becoming a scholar, and his poems and articles were selling well. What about you? If you don't want Zhao Guo, you are going to do it.
What?"
Prince Zhao said confidently: "Let's sing an opera!"
"You're kidding!" Jia Cong looked at him and said with disgust, "You have a voice like yours and you still want to sing? It's better to act in a play."
Prince Zhao blinked: "What is acting in a drama?"
Jia Cong said: "There should be a drama performance tonight. You can go and watch it. If you really like acting, it would be great to be an actor. But you have to study hard. You can't make a living just by playing."
Prince Zhao was surprised, put down his legs and said, "You want me to learn opera?"
"What is persuasion? I suggest you learn drama, not singing." Jia Cong said, "You have a bad voice. Since you like singing, why don't you protect your voice?"
"Ahem!" Kong Yunxian coughed twice.
Jia Cong asked: "Does Yunxian have anything to say?"
Kong Yunxian was helpless and said in a low voice: "How can you let the Crown Prince of Zhao become an actor?"
"He's not! He's fake."
"Even if it's fake, you can't be a low-level person!"
"How can he be so low-ranking? The actors of Yan State have long been good people. Singing is a normal means of making a living, and the art of opera is also an art. If he is willing to learn and can learn it, what's wrong with being an actor?" Jia Cong
He said seriously, "Feng Shui has changed. Three hundred years from now, acting will be one of the most desirable professions for young people."
Both of them were shocked. After a while, Prince Zhao smiled and said, "Jia Cong is really different from others." He said seriously, "I don't necessarily have to sing in operas. I just don't want to stay in Zhao country."
"Oh." Jia Cong nodded, "That's up to you. Anyway, you still have a mother." He clapped his hands, "Open the skylight and speak out. What conditions do you have."
Prince Zhao immediately said: "Save my mother."
"I need to know the situation first."
It turned out that the old lady of the Zhang family had raised a group of female actors in the house, and Zhao Shizi's mother was one of them who sang Xiaodan, so she asked Mr. Zhang to take over the house. Mrs. Zhang had not been pregnant for a long time, and her husband had wild ideas. Mrs. Zhang and Zhang
Everyone was worried. By chance, Mrs. Zhang was pregnant, so they asked her to pretend to be sick and send her to another hospital to be raised. They also bribed the doctor to tell them that Mrs. Zhang was pregnant, and devised a plan to hide it. Later, a clever doctor was hired to take care of Mrs. Zhang.
After checking his pulse and finding out that he was pregnant with a girl, Mr. Zhang hesitated a little. It happened that the concubine passed away and the young lady gave birth to a son. Mr. Zhang made a quick decision and took advantage of the fact that all the nobles and nobles in the capital were going to Xiaoci County.
After the funeral, the second-born baby boy was sent to the second prince's house. He only said that Zhang was born prematurely, and he was now the Prince Zhao. Who knew that the doctor who took the pulse was not accurate, and Mrs. Zhang gave birth to a son.
Although the Zhang family's heirs are prosperous, only Mr. Zhang is in charge. The Zhang family and Mr. Zhang have the same mother, but the second Mr. Zhang is the son of a second son, and they are not compatible with their siblings. Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhao Shizi with some embarrassment - and
He couldn't send him out and let his own nephew come in. So he taught him since he was a child, and just let him be lazy and unlearned. People have their own nature. Even though Prince Zhao thought that he was a phoenix son, a dragon grandson, and superior to others, he still treated him
The second uncle's concubine got close to her for no reason, and he didn't care that the woman was a low-class actress. Mr. Zhang Er was very happy, but Mr. Zhang was not at ease. Mrs. Zhang then became more and more reluctant to discipline him. It turned out that the grandson of the prince's family was a concubine.
There is nothing wrong with being a dandy. Who would have thought that things would change suddenly and the world would become what it was later.
The girl Zhao Shizi fell in love with was indeed the second girl from the second room of the Zhang family. Because he insisted on marrying her, Mr. Zhang had no choice but to tell him the truth. Zhao Shizi's outlook on life collapsed, and the second girl Zhang married far away.
In the State of Qin, Prince Zhao was originally a dandy, but he became even more dandy. Later, the Zhang family asked him to marry Yu Minzhong's daughter, but he was unwilling, and the mother and son had a complete breakdown.
After hearing this, Jia Cong shook his head: "There are too many slots and no mouth, and there is no solution to the mess."
Kong Yunxian also thought for a long time and said with a wry smile: "I am young and have no idea."
"Well, that's all in the past." Jia Cong said, "The first thing to do now is to rescue the prince's biological mother, and the second is to reverse the reputation of a playboy. I would like to trouble the prince to work harder to give your mother a promising son."
Zhao Shizi said: "My mother did not point to my future. She told me since I was a child that it would be good for a person to live a life of freedom, so why bother with fame and fortune that are useless."
Jia Cong rolled his eyes: "That's because you two are not short of money! Try it after two years of poverty?"
"Why am I not short of money?" Zhao Shizi said, "Although I am not short of money, my mother has always been very poor. She doesn't like fine clothes and fine food, and she can live happily on simple meals."
"Oh, your mother is an interesting person." Jia Cong glanced at him a few times and sighed, "That's right. Her son has been taken away. What else can a mother do except hope that she can
After seeing you one more time, I probably won’t have any other thoughts.”
Prince Zhao's face suddenly softened, and he smiled and said, "She said that the fourth girl from Rongguo Mansion whom she envied the most was traveling all over the world."
"That's it." Jia Cong thought for a while, "My fourth sister is currently working on a major project in Egypt that will go down in history. How about we wait until this matter is over? Why don't you two go on a trip? There are endless scenery in the north and south of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.
Bring a camera to take pictures and record the local customs and customs, which can become precious historical materials many years later. Mother and son have been separated for many years, so they should spend more time together to make amends. How about that?"
Prince Zhao's eyes lit up: "Seriously?"
"Seriously," Jia Cong said, "taking pictures is not difficult to learn. I'll let someone teach you."
Zhao Shizi said: "No wonder people say that Prince Jia is an interesting person. He is really not pedantic."
Jia Cong said: "I'm just an ordinary person. Everyone has his own ambitions and talents. All roads lead to Rome. You can't force people who don't like to study to study."
Prince Zhao said happily: "It's a deal! Please help me, Prince, to rescue my mother."
Jia Cong nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. But you have to play Huizi again." He glanced at Kong Yunxian and said with a smile, "Yunxian, how about doing him a favor?"
Kong Yunxian was still filled with emotion. Hearing this, he quickly said: "How can I help?"
Jia Cong pointed at Prince Zhao and said, "Make friends with him."
"ah?"
Jia Cong shouted: "Come here! Go to the editorial office of Yanjing Weekly and invite a photographer and an interviewer."
A few days later, the front page of the new issue of Yanjing Weekly read: The prodigal son turns back after a good friend. The subtitle - The crown prince of Zhao State and Kong Yunxian, the young master of Yanshenggong Mansion, became close friends after a fight. The crown prince decided to concentrate on his studies. Below is Zhao State
A photo of the Crown Prince and Kong Yunxian, and a photo of the Crown Prince of Zhao and Duke Yan Sheng.
The article said that Prince Zhao and Young Master Kong Yunxian had a dispute over a trivial matter in the post house, and then they met by chance in a small teahouse. Several rogues saw that Kong Yunxian was young and wanted to bully him, so Prince Zhao had to fix it.
Rascal was actually a man who had read books, so he scolded Prince Zhao in a roundabout way, but Prince Zhao didn't understand. How could Rascal's belly be as ink-filled as Young Master Kong? So he scolded Prince Zhao back, and the scolding made Rascal blush and run away. The two of them ran away.
Then they became friends. Kong Yunxian took Prince Zhao to visit his father Yanshenggong. After receiving the teachings of Duke Yansheng, the prince Zhao of the generation repented and felt that it was a pity that he had wasted his time in the past. He decided to work hard and be serious from now on.
Only by studying can you live up to your experience in this world. Duke Yan Sheng praised him as "a child can be taught".
The next issue of the Yanjing Weekly published a follow-up. A photo of the Crown Prince of Zhao with the great scholar Lin Hai, a photo of the Crown Prince of Zhao and Wu Tianyou, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, a photo of the Crown Prince of Zhao and several Hanlin bachelors. The Crown Prince of Zhao in Yanjing
Reading books in the library, Prince Zhao attending classes in the Hanlin Academy, Prince Zhao arguing with a group of students about articles.
King Zhao was overjoyed after reading these two newspapers, stroking his hands and saying, "My son is sensible now! Duke Yan is worthy of being a saint."
There was an eunuch named Wang Gonggong who was standing by and said: "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, it is better to have fun alone than to have fun with others."
King Zhao smiled and said: "What a saying, that's what Saint Meng said."
The prince smiled hurriedly and saluted: "My slave is wrong. Meng Shengren said that it is better to have fun alone than with others. Since the prince has a future, why not buy more newspapers and distribute them in the court and the public, so that the people of Zhao can see their prince.
After being praised by Duke Yan Sheng, he devoted himself to learning, and he is no longer the playboy he used to be. There are also officials at both the upper and lower levels, from the senior officials in front of the hall to the ninth-rank officials, all of whom should take a look."
King Zhao nodded repeatedly: "That's right! Let everyone take a look and have a good look!" Then he ordered people to go to Yan State to buy newspapers.
The prince said: "I heard that there were newspaper columns on the streets of Yan State. The government bought newspapers and posted them on the streets for ordinary people who couldn't afford newspapers. For those who couldn't read, my husband read to them."
King Zhao immediately said: "That's a good idea. Let them learn from it and put newspapers on the streets!"
Not long after, these two newspapers were published all over Zhao State.
In addition to the news about the Crown Prince of Zhao, these two issues of the Yanjing Weekly also contained reports on Yan’s friendly support for Zhao’s water control. Mr. Su Cheng led river control experts and engineering technicians to inspect the river course and formulate a plan with Mr. Liu Quan of Zhao.
Swear to the death to protect the Yellow River embankment of Zhao State and the lives and property of the people of Zhao State. There are also a large number of on-site photos. At a glance, the materials of Yan State piled high and the strong and powerful flood control men of Yan State are so spectacular. The State of Yan
The strong men had free time to help the people of Zhao country repair their houses, and Master Su Cheng also gave candy to the children of Zhao country. The photographer was very skilled, and the photos were very vivid.
