Gong Gong Su's World Extravaganza (6)
Three months later, Hui Ming and Su Jin really went to Jiangnan.
They didn't bring too many people. Apart from a dozen essential guards, they didn't see any of the servants they were used to at home, not even Bai Lan, not to mention the dozen or so maids in Su Jin's room. They also let him reward him with money, and asked the family to resettle the errands.
The reason is naturally because these families who have grown up in the public manor have children, and these habits of watching people's actions and stepping on lows have all been written into their bones more or less. With them, Su. Jin was fine, but he didn't want to make Hui Ming suffer in vain.
As for Bai Lan, although she is calm and sensible, her family has already set a marriage plan. After Su Jin and Hui Ming left, they will not know when they will come back. Bai Lan is now nineteen, and she is about to go out, and Su Jin does not want to. Delay her any longer.
In this way, apart from a few rough servants, Su Jin only brought one ingot with him.
Yuanbao was actually his cousin's servant, his grandmother was an accompanying roommate brought by the old lady, and the family was somewhat decent in the township's mansion. In fact, they had already been released as slaves, and they were considered good people, but they refused to After breaking the relationship with the old master, the children and grandchildren sent them to study hard, and picked the most obedient and sensible ingots and sent them back to be slaves again.
And the reason why such a family can be good outside is actually mostly relying on the face of the government of Zhenguo. When the Su family collapsed, although the good people in the Yuanbao family were not sold, they were later retaliated against. , but also gradually declined, until finally the family had to move away, and Yuanbao was not allowed by the stepmother and did not want to carry more burdens. Just as the palace received people, a few taels of silver were sent into the palace. mentorship.
Because of this, Su Jin thought that his parents were so unkind. Even if he didn't lose this time, he would definitely be the one who was mistreated in the future. It would be more reassuring to follow him, so he simply went to the uncle's side. In one encounter, I asked my cousin to come over with two boxes of various delicate things, and planned to take him to the academy to study together and try it out. Find a livelihood.
But in general, their line of business is really small, weak and weak. If it wasn't for the old man and the old lady who were worried everywhere, they gave half of their private property to him, and the empress in the palace also specially rewarded them. The guards in the palace are guarding, and others are afraid that they will really think that the eldest grandson of the town's government has made a big mistake and be kicked out.
Even with these, similar rumors and rumors are still being passed around.
But fortunately, Su Jin took Hui Ming here, so he didn't plan to come back for a long time. He also went to see his family. Even the seventh prince in the palace, because Huiming was worried, asked Su Jin to ask Empress Su, and sent Yu Gan, who was still in the palace, to the little prince, and asked the prince again. His Highness will take more care of this younger brother in the future, and this can be regarded as reassuring.
After putting all the trivial matters in the capital one by one, Huiming also changed into light clothes that were convenient for walking. He took the car first, then took the boat, and swayed all the way, not in a hurry or slow, and it took more than a month of effort. Arrive at Jiangnan Water Village.
According to what she said before she left, after Su Jin arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, she chose to study at the Egret Academy, which is located at the foot of Qiulu Mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and with beautiful scenery.
He did not study alone, but Huiming specially prepared a household registration for his cousin of the Su family and entered the academy together.
Huiming is only ten years old. If a child of this age does not look at the clothes, there is no obvious male or female attitude, not to mention that Huiming has also had his head shaved. After three months of work, he only grew out a short period of time. With short hair two inches long, Su Jin only said that this is his cousin, because he was not good at being raised in a temple since he was a child, and he just returned home from secular life recently.
After saying this, others really have no doubts. Su Jin has no great interest in the four books and five classics that he has already read. He only shares the same table with Huiming. Seeing how well Huiming has learned, he also agrees. Followed, only just a little bit stronger than Hui Ming, the master was teaching, he only stared at Hui Ming, who was listening carefully, his face was addicted and gentle, thanks to his surname Su, a relative of the royal family, he took it again when he entered the academy. The letters written by my grandfather, the masters turned a blind eye to this, and they were not taught and punished.
At the beginning, there were people who laughed at Su Jin's two dignified sons, who were not too young, and their knowledge was only slightly better than that of children's enlightenment. They were deterred by the demeanor and conversation of the two of them, which were not like ordinary children, and Huiming's starting point was low, but he made rapid progress. In just one year of hard work, he had gone from Dingtang to Yitang. Such discussions. Only gradually disappeared, not only did he gain the admiration and friendship of many classmates, but even several masters saw the talents of the two, especially Su Jin, and persuaded him, intentionally or unintentionally, to concentrate on his age all day long. Studying, taking the exams, and getting the best titles, don't indulge in childlike attitudes all day long, delaying yourself, and even harming Song Huiming, a young and ignorant cousin.
That's right, the fire can't be contained in the paper, not to mention that Su Jin and Hui Ming go in and out together all day, and they haven't covered it up much at all. As time goes by, the two "brothers" are broken sleeves to share peaches. It has become a well-known thing for everyone.
However, to the disappointment of the masters, their painstaking and earnest teaching did not wake up Su Jin, and even intensified. In the third year, the two of them didn't even care about serious schoolwork anymore, and it took a lot of effort. Studying the trail of calligraphy, painting, riding and archery, in my spare time, I often go in and out of various poetry and literary gatherings, Huajie Liuxiang, and some unrefined "talented names".
After another year like this, the masters persuaded them to go out and take the exam. Su Jin didn’t care, but Huiming, as a daughter, has no problem with her academic identity, but if she ends up, it will be exposed when she is searched, so she will refuse immediately. Now, when Su Jin saw that Huiming could not end, he also declined the persuasion of the masters.
At this time, Huiming lost much interest in the eight-legged scriptures that he only needed in the end. In addition, as he got older and his body became more and more obvious, he also had many inconveniences on weekdays, and it was no longer necessary to stay in the academy. .
Seeing this, Su Jin discussed with Hui Ming and the two of them. Because he didn't want to hide his life, he held a private banquet and invited seven or eight classmates who were familiar with each other on weekdays. Hui Ming also appeared in women's clothes and explained to everyone. They looked at them and confessed their guilt. It also showed that the two of them planned to take a good tour of this great river and mountain. After everyone was surprised, they laughed and relieved. It was not only a farewell, but also a congratulation. .
The two left the academy and were about to leave when they had to send a letter from the capital, saying that the empress in the palace was getting worse and worse. Before leaving, they wanted to see his nephew again. Su Jin saw the letter, and Hui Ming In a hurry, he went home.
Long before Su Jin went to the south of the Yangtze River, Empress Su in the palace knew about Su Jin's origin and previous relationship from her husband. If it wasn't for this, she would not have agreed with her most beloved younger generation not to return for so many years, until this moment. She couldn't hold it anymore, she remembered Su Jin, and she was grateful for his many plans in her life to save the Su family and the prince, and she felt bad for him for disregarding the future for Huiming. So far, he is only a white person. After Su Jin came back, he summoned him once. The two of them, the next day, asked His Majesty for an decree, only to say that they liked Huiming when they saw her, and wanted to accept her as a righteous daughter, make her the county master, and give her marriage to the Su family.
Emperor Xuande and Empress Su were in a shared relationship. They were deeply in love, not to mention that Empress Su was still at stake. There was nothing wrong with such a trivial matter, so she immediately ordered Song Huiming to be the Lord of Duanhe County. Su Jin worshiped the county commander Ma and gave him jade belts, fur coats, and thousands of taels of wealth. Because Empress Su was worried, he ordered the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren's government to prepare day and night. After a month, it was completed for the two of them. big wedding.
Just three days after Su Jin and Hui Ming got married, Empress Su didn't care anymore and died suddenly.
After Empress Su left, His Highness the Crown Prince was deeply grieved. After that, he obeyed his mother's orders and insisted that he should follow the ancestral system and be filial to his mother for three years. In this way, His Majesty praised his pure filial piety, and the father and son became more and more close.
Until the 33rd year of Xuande, His Majesty suffered a sudden illness and was bedridden. The Crown Prince had to do everything by himself and served the sick with all his heart. His Majesty felt his heart and heard the imperial doctor's recitation. , One year later, he took the initiative to Zen and the prince, and changed the Yuan Chenggan.
At this time, Su Jin and Hui Ming were already on their way to the Saibei grassland. The couple visited the four places of interest as they wished. Invite celebrities, or remain anonymous, to experience folk customs.
The two were pregnant with two children in this life, one son and one daughter. They were all smart and smart. During the few years when they had to go home and rest because of the pregnancy and childbirth, the husband and wife had nothing to do and decided on a whim. Travel knowledge compiled into a book.
A book, on and off, took more than 30 years, and after many deletions, additions and revisions, it was not until the two were in their sixties that a copy of "Duanhe Travel Notes" was finally written, because the two did not publicize it, and after it was published, At first, the response was only a few, but after a long time, it gradually became widely circulated. There are often children of boudoirs who read it carefully, not only to see the scenic spots in various places, people's livelihood miscellaneous talk, but also to envy the love and lingering details that can be seen everywhere in the book. The immortal couple also left a good story in later generations.
