It is said that Master Zhang Er excitedly told his father that he met a man in Tsing Yi passing by today, and Master Zhang was furious. Master Zhang Er said sternly: "Isn't what the prince said unreasonable? Now that he knows who his own mother is, he will
When we should love each other, why do relatives become enemies? At that time, the quarrel between them was just because of the marriage. Now the young couple has reconciled, and the prince also knows that Xiang is progressing in school. He is the son of the Zhang family, and he will never let the Zhang family
I am at a loss. I have always known my own weight, and the eldest brother of the Zhang family is still the one who makes the decision. Dad only follows his words, and I am serious about everything."
Mr. Zhang didn't care that his son was nearly fifty years old, so he poked his finger and said, "You really only have years but not brains. Isn't it just to please him that the imperial concubine helped him come up with such an idea?"
Mr. Zhang Er smiled and said, "Isn't it great that his wife pleases him?"
Old Mrs. Zhang hummed: "If there is a good thing in the future, the Zhang family also wants it, and the Yu family also wants it, who will he give it to?"
"His real surname is Zhang, so he naturally belongs to the Zhang family."
Mrs. Zhang glanced at him: "If Mrs. Yu takes hold of his heart, he will definitely think more about the Yu family."
Mr. Zhang Er patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I'm here! I'm his father. If things go wrong, wouldn't there be Rong Guan? He has listened to Rong Guan since he was a child, and Rong Guan listens to me. How can my daughter-in-law be better?"
I’m a madam.”
Mr. Zhang glanced at him and said, "How do you, my father, have any authority in front of your son? Regardless of the prince, which of the three sons in your own courtyard will listen to you?"
Mr. Zhang Er was embarrassed: "The prince has said this time that he will listen to me."
Mrs. Zhang waved her hand: "He recognized her as Webster's mother, but he still doesn't see your sister in his eyes."
Mr. Zhang Er grinned and said: "Does he have a big sister in his eyes now..." Mr. Zhang was dumbfounded. "After all, we are a family, why bother making trouble like a black-eyed chicken? Why don't we take advantage of the current opportunity to reconcile?
Bar."
"Don't mention this again."
"father!"
Mr. Zhang thought for a moment: "Since he is willing to make progress, it would be a good idea. Let Rong Guan meet with him tomorrow and persuade him to listen to his mother, concubine and uncle."
Mr. Zhang Er looked at his father for a long time and hummed: "Even I don't know where you are hiding people."
Mr. Zhang shook his head and sighed: "That's all. Let me think about it again." He waved his hand and sent him away. Mr. Zhang was full of dissatisfaction and went to drink and vent his anger.
Mr. Zhang sat alone in the courtyard and let out a long sigh. He knew that his grandson was disobedient and that the second house and the second house were not compatible. He could not find anyone capable in the second house. If Wei was released, the prince would be like going to the Jin Dynasty.
Huan's grandson Houhou, the Zhang family can no longer suppress him. The Yu family is the daughter of the old fox in Yu Minzhong. Seeing that her father knows her daughter, it is so easy to coax the Wei family's son and mother to go over. The Zhao Kingdom has suddenly changed. Zhang
The family has been running the business conscientiously since the capital city, so it is impossible to say that they have made wedding clothes for the Yu family. This matter must not depend on them. From time to time, it would be good for the mother and son to meet and persuade them. What the second brother said makes sense. After all, they are members of the same family.
Why bother to act like an enemy?
Then I made up my mind. When I returned to the house, Mrs. Zhang ordered someone to call Aunt Sun over. She was an old man beside Mr. Zhang. She had been very sensible and well-behaved since she was a girl who lived in the same house.
The king followed him all the time. Mr. Zhang gave Auntie Sun instructions for half a day, and then Auntie Sun took the order and left.
Early the next morning, Aunt Sun asked the housekeeper for a carriage and horses and went out to perform incense. The carriage drove all the way to the Mahayana Temple in the west of the city. Aunt Sun supported the maid and the woman and just entered the temple gate when she saw the presiding monk leading the monks to welcome them out. Aunt Sun smiled and said
"No need to be busy, just be an ordinary pilgrim." The abbot then sent two monks who knew the guest to accompany her to worship from outside. They worshiped and played in each Buddhist temple, and at least gave some incense money. Aunt Sun was in the temple at noon.
During the meal, she was tired at noon, and the monk asked her to go into a side hall to rest.
Aunt Sun changed into the clothes of a servant girl in the side hall. When there were no monks or pilgrims outside the hall, she quietly led a woman out and came to the abbot's room. There was no one else here, so the abbot led the way without saying a word and led them there.
We arrived at a small side gate of the Mahayana Temple. There was a small mule cart parked outside. The two women quietly got on the cart, and the driver whipped away.
The mule cart walked through the streets and alleys for half a day, and stopped at the door of a small courtyard. The sound of the harp and the singing of children could be heard from inside. Aunt Sun and her mother-in-law got off the cart and knocked on the door. Not long after, there was a boy.
When she came out to open the door, Aunt Sun said, "Brother, I'm looking for your Master Wei." The mother-in-law showed him her waistband.
The boy nodded and said, "Madam, come with me. Master Wei probably hasn't gotten up yet." Then he led the two of them in.
This is a theater troupe, and the actors have started practicing with the master. When they arrived at the door of a big room in the backyard, the boy shouted: "Master Wei, someone is looking for you."
After a long while, a woman seemed not to wake up and said confusedly: "Who is it? We don't let people sleep well in the middle of the day."
The boy said: "I don't know, I just said I was looking for you."
The woman said ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh as if she was stretching: "Are you a boy or a girl?"
"Two aunties."
"Please come in."
The boy said: "I still have something to do, you can go in by yourselves." Then he left.
Aunt Sun walked in and took a look. The woman was leaning lazily on the pillow and waved her hands sleepily: "Hello, aunties."
Aunt Sun couldn't help but smile and said: "Rong Guan, you are quite at ease."
This woman was Wei Rongguan, the mother of Prince Zhao. He half-opened his eyes and glanced at the two of them, then yawned: "What kind of wind has brought Aunt Sun here? You can sit wherever you like."
Aunt Sun saw that the room was clean and there was a bamboo chair, so she pulled it over and sat down. The woman stood behind her. Aunt Sun said seriously: "Rong Guan, the old man sent me here because he has something to do with you.
discuss."
Wei Rongguan half-opened his eyes again and said, "Is it because my son has become successful?"
Aunt Sun sighed: "It's more than just breathing. My wings are hard and I want to fly."
"Oh, then let him fly. He can fly as high as he can and as far as he wants." Wei Rongguan said, "Don't expect me to hold him back for you."
Aunt Sun looked at her and said, "Rong Guan, you are a smart person."
"Yes, I am indeed a smart man." Wei Rongguan closed his eyes, hugged the pillow with both hands and pressed it against his face, "So I know that my son will probably have the upper hand. Otherwise, how could the old man send the eloquent Aunt Sun to personally
Come to see me? You are wearing the clothes of the person under you. You are afraid that my son will find me if he has the ability." She suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Stop daydreaming! My son has no future and you are pinching him. He has no future.
You still want to pinch him and act like a monkey? My surname is Wei, I will not help you deal with my son. If you have the ability, kill me and see what else you can do to restrain him." After saying that, he turned over and lay down, but he was too lazy.
She said proudly, "I haven't slept enough yet, so I need to catch up on it. Could you please go out and close the door for me?" She rolled to the side, picked up the pillow with her backhand, rolled back to where she was, and covered her face with the pillow.
Aunt Sun was full of words but did not say a word. After a long while, she sighed: "You can take care of yourself. After all, the country of Zhao still belongs to the Zhang family." She stood up and left.
Hearing that there was no movement outside, Wei Rongguan suddenly jumped up from the kang like a carp and cheered: "Son! Well done!" Before he could finish his words, two lines of tears already fell down his face.
After sitting for a long time, Wei Rongguan got up, packed his clothes and hair, and prepared to go out to teach the children to sing opera. There were three "dong dong dong" sounds on the window, and someone shouted softly: "Is Master Wei in the house?"
Wei Rongguan raised his eyebrows: "Who?"
There was a smile in the man's words: "Master Wei, if he had been more patient and listened to what Aunt Sun said, he would have guessed who I am. Do you want to leave Handan and go to the capital to find your son?"
Wei Rongguan jumped to the window and opened it with a bang: "What did you say?!"
I saw a young man in Tsing Yi standing outside the window. He took something out of his arms with a smile: "Prince Zhao said that when Master Wei sees this, he will know that I was invited by him."
Wei Rongguan took a breath and took a look. It turned out to be a bunch of faded crimson velvet flowers. Tears fell down again: "He broke this off my head when he was a child." Nai cried and laughed at the same time, looking at Qing Yi.
The man said in a trembling voice, "Is he really my son?"
The man in Tsing Yi nodded and said: "The Zhang family is really cunning. I spent many days trying to find out the whereabouts of Master Wei, so I tried to scare the snake yesterday. Fortunately, it worked."
Wei Rongguan wiped his tears and clasped his fists and said, "May I ask what a righteous man is called?"
The man in Tsing Yi thought for a while: "I don't know if I can let Master Wei know my name. You can just call me 'righteous man'."
Wei Rongguan saluted the man in Tsing Yi through the window: "Thank you for your help, righteous man."
The man in Tsing Yi returned the courtesy and said seriously: "Escape has not been easy since ancient times. The Zhang family has great power in Handan, and there must be many ways to keep an eye on Master Wei. What I mean is, Master Wei, come with me now, don't agree with me."
People in the troupe said some vague farewell words. You left without leaving any trace. The Zhang family is afraid that there will be clues, but they will not hurt them. Don't pack any luggage. Keep important things close to you. Don't bring any money, Prince.
rich."
Wei Rongguan thought for a while: "That's fine."
Then she returned to the house. First she hid a few things in her arms, but after hiding them, she couldn't hide them any more. However, she still had other things she wanted to bring with her, so she took them out one by one and put them on the kang, feeling worried.
Reluctant to leave it behind, the man in Tsing Yi said helplessly: "Then just pack it up."
Wei Rongguan's eyes lit up: "Seriously? Is it inconvenient?"
The man in Tsing Yi's mouth twitched slightly: "No..."
Wei Rongguan dug out a big green leather baggage like lightning and put all the items in the kang in it. He picked it up, weighed it, and said with a flattering smile: "It's a bit heavy..."
The man in Tsing Yi smiled instead. He turned around and looked around. Wei Rongguan was about to put on makeup just now. There was an eyebrow pencil on his desk, so he picked it up and dipped it in black ink to draw a bamboo hat on the wall. There was a strange feather stuck in the bamboo hat.
. And mentioned: The thief Robin Hood is here for a visit. He picked up his baggage and said: "Don't say anything and come with me." Wei Rongguan nodded repeatedly.
The two of them walked out of the yard. Wei Rongguan held his breath and did not dare to breathe, and carefully followed the man in Tsing Yi. Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps in front of him, and Wei Rongguan covered his face in fright. But when he heard a "plop", Wei Rongguan opened his eyes and saw
An actor fell to the ground. The man in Tsing Yi said: "It's okay, he will wake up after a while." He bent down and picked up the locust stone.
Wei Rongguan raised his thumb and said, "A righteous man has great skills!"
On the other side, the imperial concubine Yu of the State of Zhao arrived in the capital and had a quarrel with the imperial concubine that day. There were people arranged by Jia Cong in the post house who rushed to the political hall to report the news. Yu was originally called by Jia Cong, and he was indispensable.
He went over to break up the fight. But when he passed by, the two of them had already finished their quarrel. One was singing in the yard with a smoky voice, and the other was weeping silently in the house.
Jia Cong saw that Yu described Juan's elegant posture as a beautiful woman, so he stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "This lady must be the daughter of Lord Yu Minzhong."
Mrs. Yu was crying when she suddenly noticed a man standing in front of her. She was shocked: "Who are you! How dare you break into the courtyard of the Crown Prince of Zhao."
"Um..." Jia Cong thought for a while, turned around and shouted outside, "Hey, stop singing, it's too unpleasant and it's causing noise pollution. Come in quickly and introduce me to your wife." The singing outside the house paused for a moment, and then started again.
Then they started singing. Jia Cong said helplessly, "Mrs. Yu, your husband is still in the rebellious stage. Thank you for your hard work."
Mrs. Yu looked at Jia Cong for a moment, then suddenly remembered the photo of Regent Yan in the newspaper, and hurriedly bent over and said, "Meet the Regent."
"Goodbye." Jia Cong said, "I have some friendship with the person outside, so please don't be so polite." After saying that, he had to return the favor. The two exchanged a few polite words. Jia Cong sat down and said, "Mrs. Yu
, I think I need to tell you the truth about something. The newspaper said that Prince Zhao studied hard and made progress every day. That was a false advertisement, and it was a pretense that Kong Yunxian and I helped him. This guy doesn’t like reading, and he probably never will in this life.
Like reading.”
Yu was shocked for a moment, and without hiding the disappointment on her face, she murmured: "That's it."
Jia Cong said: "As the saying goes, a person's temperament is easy to change but hard to change. In this life, he has neither sex nor anything... well, the pressure of survival. Anyway, it will not shorten his money. His wish is to spend his life idle. This way
Do you still want a man like that? If not, remarry early while you are young; if you do, you have to accept that he has no ambition. Stop trying to persuade him to study, make progress, and make contributions."
Yu was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Jia Cong continued: "One more thing. He is not the son of Princess Zhang of Zhao Kingdom. His biological mother is a female actor, and she seems to have a very free and easy temper. I personally feel that she would not treat her daughter-in-law harshly. This aunt never expected her son
She is promising, and I am very happy for him to live a free and carefree life. In a few days, we will bring her here, and the mother and son will probably live together. If you are with them, your life will not be stressful, and you will not have to get up early to go to your mother-in-law.
Please say hello, and be careful when dealing with all the aunts and eunuchs. This can be considered a benefit. Think for yourself what kind of life you want to live. The customs of the people of Yan are different from those of Zhao and your hometown of Wu. Mrs. Yu might as well walk around
Take a look, maybe God will open another window for you?"
Yu stared at Jia Cong and said: "The prince of Zhao is not going to make a difference, but the regent is happy."
Jia Cong said: "It's a bit. I have always admired that people have their own ambitions, and I don't agree with blindly forcing young people to follow the same path. It should be noted that some people are born with liberal arts minds, some are born with science minds, some are born with artistic minds, and some are born with artistic minds.
People are born with sports brains. Some people are born with money and don't worry about food, so why bother to work hard to make progress?" He pointed outside, "The man in the yard said that he wanted to take his mother to travel around the country. If Mrs. Yu is interested in going with him, write
Travel notes are a good way to leave a name for future generations. You have a lot of talent and learning, wouldn't it be cheaper to write it yourself than to teach him to learn 'Kong Yiji' from scratch?"
