"At that time, we never imagined that you and I would be in such a situation. Brother, you have the favor of the emperor... Although the emperor gave you a title compiled by Wuying Palace, he left you to consult with the emperor. If there is any important news, don't forget
Got us."
When Fang Bao came to Beijing, as an old acquaintance for many years, Dai Mingshi naturally wanted to be a landlord and treat him to dinner. During the dinner, the two talked about their wanderings in the capital decades ago, and also mentioned the Nanshan Market. Dai Mingshi was inevitably a little confused.
, he said this casually.
"..."
Fang Linggao looked at his old friend until Dai Mingshi asked uncomfortably: "Brother Linggao, what are you doing?"
"The Emperor placed you in the Wuying Hall, originally intending to make great use of you. However, in the past few years, your brother has continued to study. Do you know why?"
Fang Bao snorted, "Why can't you control your mouth? Even though you know that my position is in front of the emperor and I have really important news, I dare to tell you, Dai Tianyou, don't you think you are living too much?"
Comfortable, can’t you die quickly enough?”
When it comes to life and death, Dai Mingshi is a little uncomfortable. He knows that Fang Linggao will not ridicule him, but this is his own heartache. If he was loyal to the previous dynasty, when he wrote the Nanshan Collection, the emperor pointed it out to his face.
, he should have just hit him to death.
If he was loyal to his dynasty, then why did he write the Nanshan Collection in the first place... Occasionally in the dead of night, Dai Mingshi asked himself, who am I? More often, he looked at so many officials in the court and often said, "Everyone is the same."
"To comfort myself.
Nowadays, the atmosphere is no longer like that in the early days of the Xi Dynasty. At that time, there were still people in the capital openly trying to ridicule the dynasty and using various methods to refuse to cooperate. But now this kind of behavior is almost extinct.
"You don't have to be like this. The trend of the times is no longer what it was back then." Fang Bao said in a stern tone, "In that case, why should you and I make mistakes and have more delusions?"
"That's right..." Dai Mingshi could only sigh deeply in the end and put the topic down: "Brother Linggao, be careful. Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. It is not easy to do the job of being in front of the emperor."
Fang Bao didn't say anything. How could he not know this? If outsiders really knew about the questions raised by the emperor, it would be a shock to the four tables... Although he was quite aware of his situation and status when he entered the capital, he ate
There are those who suffer losses in lawsuits and add insult to injury to the world. Then the emperor turns around and summons him to the capital. There are even more people who are arrogant at first and respectful at the back.
After all, it was because of the emperor's influence that Fang Bao made up his mind to only listen to the emperor, but the questions the emperor asked still made Fang Bao sweat through his clothes. Is that a hint, or... what if the king of a country revealed it to the suspected crown prince?
It's not a good feeling to feel uneasy.
Fang Linggao, a well-known master of Tongcheng School, was thinking about the emperor's thoughts, but Yinti was very relaxed when he was thinking about him. Sometimes people can be very happy if they can transfer the pressure. He dumped his troubles to the old man Fang Bao, and the emperor himself was happy.
I patted my butt and ran back to Changchun Garden.
Daoqin felt relieved when she saw him. He had been a little depressed since Yinti recovered from his illness. Although it looked like Yinti was happily choosing a prince-in-law for his daughter and arranging the marriage for his son.
But after being married for many years, Daoqin could tell at a glance that Yinti was at a loss and didn't know what to do. Yinti didn't want to talk about their tacit understanding as a couple, and Daoqin didn't want to get to the bottom of it... This would make him feel good.
When she got up, she also became happy.
She always trusts her husband. No matter what kind of problem it is, it is not difficult for Yinti. If he wants to say something, the queen will also be a good listener.
Naturally, not only did Yinti return to the garden, he also had his newly married son and his daughters-in-law, as well as Uzhina's potential prince-in-law. A group of nobles from the Eight Banners came to Changchun Garden with excitement and nervousness.
Their parents and elders have told them many times that the second princess is gentler than the eldest princess. Princess Shang definitely only makes money but does not lose anything. She must perform well in front of the emperor and show her talents in education, so that she can embark on a promising future.
The boundless bright road.
However, while these young talents were waiting to meet in person, word spread through the grapevine: "The emperor is busy with government affairs and will not see them today!"
This... if the emperor doesn't see them, then they are just showing their flattery to a blind man... No one else can make the decision. Although there is a queen today who is not as good as the Shunzhi and Xi dynasties, and the queen is obviously very holy, but the decision is always made.
He is the emperor, and the queen herself is not very fond of blowing pillows.
Yinti left in a hurry, and even put down the important matter of choosing a betrothed for his daughter. Naturally, something happened that he had to come forward. When Taiyuan Hospital came to report, the man from Zhengjiazhuang might not be able to do it, that is, in the past month,
A matter of half a month.
Since Er Fujin's death, Yin Reng's health has not been very good. In addition, his sons observe filial piety, and the family gathering together is sometimes not a wonderful thing to enjoy family happiness.
In this way, the second master's health continued to deteriorate. When the Imperial Hospital went to Zhengjiazhuang to ask for pulse on a routine basis, they found that his body looked fine on the outside, but in fact it was like chaff on the inside.
This second master's status is quite sensitive, and Taiyuan Hospital knows it well. Now that he has become like this, it is better to report him as soon as possible.
There was silence in the Zheng family manor. Hong Min stood in front of Yin Reng's bed, almost leaning on it, with his brothers, big and small, behind him. This period was also difficult for him. Before E Niang passed away, he had the title of Baylor, and Hong Jin often
Walking around in front of the emperor, you can always get more care from the palace.
Now they are all back to keep their filial piety. Although they have never lost anything, some things are not as easy to talk about as they used to be.
"You all should go back." Yinreng's tone was weak and he spoke very slowly: "The imperial physician has reported that the emperor may come today."
"...Ama?" Hong Min felt that his Ama was sick and confused, "The emperor may have asked the eldest brother to come to visit, but he will not come in person."
"He will... don't worry about it. There are a bunch of people around. I feel like it's hard to breathe. Let's go. Let's get out!"
Hong Min wanted to say something more, but Hong Xi behind him pulled him. The two brothers' eyes met. Hong Xi shook his head and told his eldest brother to follow Ama's thoughts and stop talking. Hong Min swallowed the words and with a few words
The younger brother left the main house.
After Yinfeng became ill, he didn't even see the side chambers, leaving only a few sons to attend to his illness. Now everyone left, and the eunuch stood guard at the door, as if there were no living people. The room was quiet, which made Yinfeng happy.
Reng remembered some old things.
Decades ago, he and Yinti shook their fists and almost hit Yinti in the eye. The late emperor who came after hearing the news was very dissatisfied at the time, and he was also punched, but the late emperor did not see it and he could not defend himself.
I had no choice but to return to Yuqing Palace angrily, full of grievances.
When I was a child, I was not as good as Yinti in terms of playing it safe and being generous...
Yinti arrived at Zhengjiazhuang in the evening. He came with a light carriage and fast horses, which did not disturb many people. People outside thought that he was caught up in some urgent government affairs, but no one thought that the emperor actually came to Zhengjiazhuang in person.
The guards and guards led the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to urgently blockade the Zhengjiazhuang. Fortunately, there were no people living here, and no one paid attention to the slight commotion. The Hongmin brothers heard the sound and came out to salute, but Yinti waved his hand and told them to step aside.
We drove straight into the main room.
The last time their brothers met was after the death of the late emperor, and it had been more than ten years in the blink of an eye... It had been so long. Yinti looked at Yinreng's pale face, and now this brother looked older than himself.
"I'm sorry that my brother is in a state of incompetence and can't get up."
"...I'm not such a mean person." Yinti waved his hand to everyone to leave. He dragged a chair over and sat beside the bed.
He kept a straight face, but Yinreng smiled and said: "People who become emperors will be more or less mean... No one knows this better than me."
If there is someone today who can make Yinti talk more deeply than Fang Bao, it is Yinreng. And some Fangbao can only listen and give some oblique suggestions. Yinreng can talk to
He discusses.
Because this second master really served as the crown prince of the East Palace...and now, his fighting power is only in words.
"I'm not airtight. To say the least, I want to thank you for your noble hand, elder brother. At least I can catch my breath, haha." Yinreng took a deep breath: "Imperial father... I mean, the late emperor recruited so many people back then.
When staff members enter the South Study Room, they often take part in causing trouble. Whether they are attacking the Ming Party or the Suo Party..."
"In the early years, I always felt that Suo'etu was disobedient and a fool. Now that I think about it, he is also riding a tiger and can't get off." Yin Reng looked like he was recalling old things. "But now I am beside the point. The late emperor was looking for those people because he wanted nothing more.
In addition to the close and noble ministers in the court, appoint confidants for yourself."
"Now that the emperor is recruiting celebrities and scholars to Beijing, it would be a joke to say that I can't see it."
"It's just that it's curious what the emperor is worried about. Brother, I am willing to help you solve your worries..."
As long as Yinren is not in a situation where his mind is full of ideas, he is a person who can talk. However, Yinti is very curious: "What if I don't come today?"
"Then I have no choice but to leave a legacy..." Yinreng smiled bitterly: "I have reached the age to think about my children and grandchildren. Their brothers have mediocre talents, and I have to leave some legacy for them. I can be regarded as an Ama who can live up to them.
Already."
The two of them were speechless for a while, and Yinti suddenly felt depressed and said first: "So what do you want to say?"
"Both the government and the public are bowing their heads, the treasury is full, there have been no floods or droughts in recent years, and several new yamen have made a lot of money. And the ministers were all promoted by you, and several of the great scholars of the Xi Dynasty are old and dying.
, they all have to be changed. In fact, I thought it was strange when I heard about it. I thought you should have a more comfortable life than the late emperor, but I didn’t expect..."
"Is the emperor worried about the affairs of his children so early?" Yinreng's tone became serious, "This matter must be done sooner rather than later."
Yinti looked at this younger brother. He came to the right place this time. He could have called Honghan or Hongyu, or Hongyu brothers, but then Yinti thought about it and felt that he should meet him while he was awake.
Let’s meet and chat.
After all, even if a person is about to die, he may speak well, and maybe he will gain some new insights.
