After Yan Hui left, Ban Huai said to Rong Xia with a stiff smile, "Thank you, Uncle Rong."
Although he didn't like to use his brain, he wouldn't be so stupid that he couldn't see that Rong Xia was here on purpose to relieve him. He quickly glanced around and whispered to Rong Xia, "I'm thinking about my daughter."
He didn't react at first, but after seeing Yan Hui's insistence to talk to him alone, he understood.
But what's the use of telling him about this kind of thing, it's not his decision.
When it comes to the family's private affairs, he didn't have the embarrassment to mention it to Rong Xia, but he shook his head at Rong Xia incomprehensibly, saying that his daughter was precious, and even if the more powerful Zuo Prime Minister of the dynasty came to ask for a marriage for his son, he would still do it. Unmoved.
At this moment, Ban Huai felt that his image was like that of an expert with integrity and integrity in the storybook, and he was determined not to bow down for five buckets of rice.
The wife had already mentioned to him that Yan Hui's wife was an elder who was not very easy to get along with. What should I do if my daughter married and was rejected by this mother-in-law
At that time, when his daughter suffers a loss, no matter how absurd he is, he can't bring someone to beat his daughter's mother-in-law. If such a thing happens, even the emperor will not help him.
Marrying a man, marrying a man, dressing and eating, if you have a mother-in-law who is not easy to get along with, a good girl will suffer a lot. Just pressing down the word filial piety can make people breathless. After his daughter-in-law married into the Ban family, he was reluctant to let her daughter-in-law suffer like this, and how could he be willing to let his daughter marry into the Yan family and suffer this kind of grievance.
Seeing that Ban Huai was obviously very unwilling to agree to this marriage, Rong Xia said: "Uncle, this junior thinks that after you go to court, you should talk to Zuo Xiang, or at least make things clear to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. "
"You're right," Ban Huai nodded, "I'll make it clear earlier, and their family will give up earlier."
If your family wants to marry, others must marry, and it is beautiful to think.
Rong Xia smiled, turned around and walked to his place to stand still. He even had free time to greet each other with other courtiers. He was really personable and impeccable.
After the emperor came, the great court meeting went well, only when the last censor mentioned Xie Chongjin's dereliction of duty, the smell of gunpowder of the court officials rose again.
"Your Majesty, I think that although Lord Xie is suspected of ineffective supervision, but the crime is not enough, please think twice."
This official belongs to the second prince. He is speaking for Xie Chongjin now to help the second prince and concubine in the future and to enhance the rights of the second prince's wife and clan.
"Your Majesty, if all the officials in my court don't pay attention to what their subordinates do, how can he care about the people?" A censor said sharply, "It's better to go home if you are an official and don't decide for the people. Honor your mother."
The censor's language style is a little bohemian.
"My minister agrees!"
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
Emperor Yunqing felt a pain in his brain after being quarreled by the courtiers, and he said impatiently: "Xie Chongjin's ineffective supervision and indulging his subordinates are unforgivable, but Nian was not involved in it and was deceived by his subordinates. Excusable. Starting today, he will be dismissed from his position, and he will be allowed to go home to recuperate and be exempted from other punishments."
Is this to slap Xie Chongjin to the end
Uncle Zhongping had only two sons, the eldest son was dismissed from his post, and the second son was unable to enter the court because of his broken eyes. The next generation of the Xie family was considered a failure.
"Your Majesty," Uncle Zhongping slumped to his knees on the ground and gave a big gift to Emperor Yunqing, "Your Majesty, the dog has been wronged, I beg Your Majesty to give it light."
"Xie Qing, I have already forgiven his crime lightly," Emperor Yunqing waved his hand impatiently, "You don't need to say it again, if you were not my in-laws, Xie Dalang's crime should have been assigned to the frontier, and he could not be recalled for five years. "
Uncle Zhongping turned pale in an instant, and after a long while he kowtowed to Emperor Yunqing: "Wei Chen... Thank you for your grace."
His Majesty did not give him any face at all. In the future, when his daughter married into the Second Prince's Mansion, I don't know how much grievances she would have to suffer.
The courtiers of the great cause do not need to kneel if it is not a major event. Uncle Zhongping is now helpless to kneel to Emperor Yunqing in front of the whole court, but it is obvious that his face is not enough, and the emperor has not relieved Xie Zhongjin. punishment.
After the dynasty was over, Uncle Zhongping walked straight to Ban Huai, his face flushed and his face filled with hatred: "Ban Huai, you deceived people too much today, the Xie family has written down your gift."
The courtiers who had not gone far saw that there was a lot of fun to watch, and they couldn't help but slow down their pace, looked at the two from the corner of their eyes, and watched jokes with a more subtle gesture.
"It's ridiculous, what does the convict of your family have to do with Ben Hou?" Ban Huai saw Uncle Zhongping's appearance, and was not afraid to turn back his anger, "It wasn't me who investigated the case, it wasn't me who impeached him, but you favored me. Getting angry, isn't it because I have no real power and can be bullied?"
When the courtiers heard this, they almost didn't laugh out loud. They could say such words, and this class of Marquis really didn't want to be embarrassed.
Uncle Zhongping didn't expect Ban Huai to say such a thing, his face flushed red: "Ban Huai, don't make excuses!"
"I haven't said a word since the early morning until now, but you came to trouble me, because you were bullying the soft and fearing the hard, or what?" Ban Huai flicked the ash that didn't exist on his body, "The Censor just now said it well, when Officials don’t make decisions for the people, so what’s the use of being an official, is there really nothing wrong with your boss?”
Ban Huai raised his chin and said, "Don't think that your family will marry the royal family, so you don't take the common people seriously. You must know that His Majesty is a monarch who is rare to see in a thousand years. , you Xie family thought wrong, very wrong!"
After saying these impassioned words, Ban Huai flicked his sleeves and walked out of the hall with his head held high.
When the imperial censor, who had criticized Xie Chongjin just now, saw that he was singled out and praised by Ban Huai, his mood was a little complicated. Although it's nice to be praised and approved, but the person who approves of him is a famous dude in the court. This is really...
But this Jing Ting Hou is actually quite right and wrong.
"Sister," Ban Heng pointed to the front on the lively street, "Do you think that is father and Yan Zuoxiang, what are they doing in the teahouse?"
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he turned to Ban Hua and said, "Could it be that my father was discussing your marriage with Yan Zhen with Mr. Yan Xiangye?"
How can a nerd like Yan Zhen be worthy of his sister? Originally, I went out today to accompany his sister out to buy things, but I didn't expect this to happen.
"Come on, let's follow and listen."
Ban Heng couldn't help worrying in his heart, Yan Hui must be able to be the left minister, and his brain must be very smart. What if he said that he would confuse his father and really promised to marry his sister to the Yan family
"What's there to hear," Ban Hua was not nervous at all, "Father will not let me marry into the Yan family."
"I know he's reluctant, but Yan Xiangye is good at scheming. What I worry about is that my father will fall for his tricks," Ban Heng had deep doubts about his father's intelligence, but as a son of man, he couldn't say these words. , "Sister, come with me quickly."
So the guards of the Ban family who were guarding the door of the teahouse could only watch helplessly as the princess, the prince of his own family, sneaked into the teahouse, and pretended not to see anything.
Ban Heng asked the clerk to take the siblings to the next cubicle and began to eavesdrop on this important event.
Ban Hua felt that Ban Heng's move was a bit boring, but as a good sister who dotes on her brother, she could only condone his nonsense, and imitated Ban Heng's appearance and put her ears on the screen.
Yan Hui and Ban Huai didn't know that two juniors were eavesdropping.
"Master Hou, the dog and your daughter..."
"Master Xiang, the dog girl is a little girl who hasn't left the cabinet. I'm afraid it has nothing to do with Young Master Ling," Ban Huai took a sip of tea and shook his head, "Master Xiang doesn't know anything, the dog girl is spoiled by her mother, she really doesn't deserve it. For the Yan family's sake, please don't bring this up again."
"Does the Hou Ye think that the dog can't take good care of your daughter?" Yan Hui felt a little unacceptable when he heard this. Thinking of the young son's dejected appearance, he could only shamelessly say, "Yan can guarantee that as long as the Hou Ye is willing Let Ling Qianjin marry the poor mansion, and the rest of the house will never neglect Ling Qianjin."
"It's not a question of whether to neglect or not," Ban Huai sighed embarrassedly, "Master Xiang, marriage is about your love and my wishes. Since the dog girl has no relationship with Linglang, she will no longer ask for it."
Yan Hui didn't expect Ban Huai's refusal to be so rude, and he didn't even leave any room. This is equivalent to telling him bluntly that my daughter didn't like your son, so my daughter didn't marry your son, hehe.
If other people talk to him like this, he may not be able to swallow his breath, but the person who said this is Ban Huai, a well-known absurd person in the capital.
In fact, Yan Hui felt that it was a very absurd thing for his youngest son to not marry if he was not the owner of Fule County.
The chat couldn't go on this day, and the smile on Yan Hui's face couldn't be hung any longer. He got up and said to Ban Huai, "In that case, Yan must leave."
Why would such an absurd person give birth to such a beautiful daughter? Isn't this a good boy who harmed the capital
"Walk slowly." Ban Huai got up and returned a salute to Yan Hui with a hippy smile, as if he didn't see that Yan Hui was already unhappy.
After Yan Hui left, Ban Huai hummed a little song softly and drank most of the tea in the cup with one gulp.
These literati are very particular about drinking tea with a teacup the size of a thumb. Even an ant can't drown. I really don't know what's the use.
"Father." The door was pulled open from the outside, and Ban Heng and Ban Hua squeezed in and sat opposite him.
"Why are you two here?" Ban Huai put down the teacup, picked up the teapot, and took a few gulps to his mouth. The meat patties he ate in the morning were too dry, and he had long wanted to take a gulp of water.
"I happened to see you and Yan Xiangye here just now, and my sister and I followed," Ban Heng moved the small teacup in front of him to the side, "you rejected Yan Xiangye's words just now, my sister and I both heard, you it is this."
Ban Heng gave Ban Huai a dog-legged thumbs up.
"Humph." Ban Huai straightened his waist proudly, turned to Ban Hua and said, "Don't worry, my good girl, your father won't force you to marry any man you don't want to marry."
Ban Hua smiled sweetly at Ban Huai.
She knew that her father and mother would not let her marry anyone casually.
Because Ban Huai's rejection was too thorough, Yan Hui looked a little ugly when he walked out of the restaurant. He was about to get into the sedan chair, and when he saw Rongxia beating his horse, he stood up straight and waited for him to come.
"Yan Xiangye," Rong Xia jumped off the horse and bowed to Yan Hui, "Didn't you have something to discuss with Master Ban Hou, why..."
"It's not too much to talk about," Yan Hui said, "there's nothing to talk about."
Rong Xia stood by with a smile when she heard the words, not answering Yan Hui's words.
Yan Hui also realized that he shouldn't show his face to the irrelevant person, he hastily bowed his hands to Rong Xia, bent down and sat in the sedan chair.
"Yan Xiang, walk slowly." Rong Xia took a step back and respectfully bowed to the sedan chair.
Yan Hui sat in the sedan chair, lifted the curtain and glanced at Rong Xia, who had a respectful attitude. It would be good to have more talents like Uncle Rong in this capital.
As for Ban Huai's playfulness...
snort!
When Du Jiu saw the uncle mounted on the horse, he was about to leave, and whispered, "Uncle, are you not drinking tea?"
"No need to drink, go home."
Rong Xia looked up at the second floor of the teahouse, pulled the reins, and the horse turned around and walked towards Bo's Mansion.
The author has something to say: Ban Huai: Whoever hits my daughter will be hit in the face.
