As expected by Sun Shaozong, Zhang Qiu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was furious when he learned the origin of the incident, calling out his second son, and in front of Sun and Liu, he had to add another stick.
Sun Shaozong tried his best to dissuade him. After all, Zhang Qiu turned and ordered his son to apologize to Liu Xianglian.
Next, the host and the guest were all enjoying themselves. Sun Shaozong and Zhang Qiu recalled the scene of invigilating the examination at the Gongyuan, and they talked about the current situation of the imperial examiner. The more they talked, the more speculative they became.
Of course, this is just an appearance.
In fact, Zhang Qiu took the initiative to break the festival and lowered his posture to cater to Sun Shaozong, which made the two chat very happily.
Although Zhang Qiu didn't say anything until the end, Sun Shaozong vaguely sensed that this Master Shang Shu had something to do with him, and that's why he seemed so enthusiastic.
So when they were full of food and drink, the two had established a considerable degree of 'revolutionary friendship'.
…
Coming out of Zhang Qiu's house, it is already a willow shoot on the moon.
After parting with Liu Xianglian in front of the door, Sun Shaozong saw that he was not far from Li Xian's house, so he went to visit him.
After returning to Beijing, this was the first time he saw Li Xian's father Li Sheng. Compared with the decadent sick man two years ago, Li Sheng's mental outlook has improved a lot. Foam flying.
But his body had completely collapsed.
Every skin and flesh was shriveled against the bones, and it seemed that even the internal organs had shrunk.
It is estimated that after the spring season next year, whether Li Xian can be in high school or not, he will take his last breath.
Wrong officials harm the people, it is obvious.
After saying goodbye to Li Xian and his son, Sun Shaozong sighed all the way. After all, if he really had to worry about it, he was also jointly and severally responsible for lax supervision.
So when he returned to the mansion, he first called Wang Jin, the concierge, and ordered him to call Hong Jiu early tomorrow morning.
The first is that Hong Jiuyao's official status has now been settled, and it is best to quickly decide who his title of Beggar Warden should be transferred to.
In addition, it is necessary to handle the end of the hand well, and don't let any handle fall off - if it is not unexpected, the beggar Baojia system will be greatly adjusted, investigated, and replaced in the near future.
The second time, he ordered him to spread the deeds of Li Xian and his son widely in the capital.
In the spring of next year, Li Xian is only fifteen years old.
This young genius is not only a gimmick, but also a burden. When Zhang Juzheng was thirteen years old, he was deliberately suppressed for three years because he was too young
In order to avoid such a situation, it is natural to spread Li Xian's situation as early as possible, and to create a golden body with a hundred virtues and filial piety first, so that others would not dare to dismiss him because of his age.
Then Wang Jin responded one by one, and when Sun Shaozong finished his explanation, he did not rush to retreat, but bowed and reported: "Second Master, when the eldest lady came back from Rongguo Mansion today, she gave special orders, saying that she was waiting for you. When you get home, make time to go there.”
Jia Yingchun has returned to her parents' home today
Sun Shaozong immediately asked, "Did the Rongguo Mansion send someone to invite him, or did the eldest wife take the initiative to return to her parents' house?"
"It was Rongguo Mansion who sent someone here early in the morning."
tsk~
Eighty percent of the time, Jia She couldn't wait, and he couldn't urge him directly, so he wanted his daughter to be sidelined.
But other than that, maybe there's something else to say...
He took out his pocket watch and glanced at it, and found that it was almost [10 o'clock in the evening] in Haizheng. How could the uncle go to see the sister-in-law at this time
Immediately, he ordered: "Find a mother-in-law to go to the house and let me know, and say that I will be working in the study tonight."
Wang Jin agreed, and then bowed and stepped back.
Sun Shaozong took the lantern from Zhang Cheng's hand and rushed all the way to the backyard study.
Not to mention, Zhang Qiu's wine is soft and sturdy -- especially when the wind blows, it makes his face swell and his heart is hot.
Fortunately, the mind is still sober.
After entering the study, Sun Shaozong first blew out the lantern, then lit two candlesticks with a torch, and placed them in front of the desk to make the illusion of working with candles.
After the preparations were made, Sun Shaozong quietly went behind the rockery, removed half of the large stone of more than 300 kilograms, waited for it to enter the dark passage, and carefully held it back to its original position.
He walked more than a hundred steps in the dark, and when he saw the end, Sun Shaozong bent his fingers on the stone slab above his head and knocked a few times.
Before he could finish typing the code, he heard a crackling sound, causing the slate above his head to move sideways, revealing a bright light.
"Second Master."
Xiuju held the candlestick and said happily, "I knew you were coming at night, and the servants have been waiting here."
When Sun Shaozong came out of the secret passage, Jia Yingchun also came up early, staring at Sun Shaozong affectionately, but there was no words in her mouth - she has always been like this, otherwise she would not have been called Ermu Tou.
However, that Xiuju was a mess. As he closed the mechanism again, he smiled and said, "Second Master really is drinking—you wait, I'll bring the sobering soup."
With that said, he walked out on his own.
Sun Shaozong was waiting to call her back, so as not to disturb others.
Unexpectedly, she turned around to the corner, held out a food box like a treasure, and pulled out the hangover soup and two plates of light side dishes from the food box.
At the same time, Jia Yingchun also silently handed over a hot towel for Sun Shaozong to clean his hands and face.
"After Xuzheng [eight o'clock in the evening], and before the second master came over, the wife knew that you must be a wine party today, so she specially prepared hangover soup."
Xiuju said, and asked for credit for the master: "Our wife always keeps her mind in her stomach, but when it comes to thinking about the second master, she is no worse than others!"
Because the eldest brother was not in the capital, Sun Shaozong was afraid that he would accidentally wipe the gun and make a fire, and then create a 'black household' who could not be on the table.
And he just came back after going out for two years. Jia Yingchun's master and servant have been left to hang out for a long time, so it is inevitable that he is a little uneasy.
Sun Shaozong laughed, but he took Jia Yingchun, who was bowing his head and said nothing, into his arms.
In just a moment, Jia Yingchun was like a muddy mess, and he had no intention of resisting at all.
Seeing that, he didn't even care about drinking the hangover soup, he was about to enjoy the harmony in the hall, and suddenly he heard the noise outside.
Sun Shaozong was relatively calm, but Jia Yingchun jumped up immediately, pulling on his collar in a panic, hiding the spring light on his chest.
Seeing this, Sun Shaozong took the opportunity to pick up the sober soup that night, and casually ordered: "Go out and have a look, and see what's going on outside."
Xiuju got the order, hurriedly removed the latch, opened a small gap, and the shadow puppets also drilled out.
Not long after, she returned to the hall again, and helplessly reported: "Don't be afraid, madam, it's the uncle from Dongkuoyuan who drank a few more glasses, and spreads wine all over the yard with his bare feet."
It turns out that Xing Zhong drank too much...
Sun Shaozong was quite speechless. Since Xing Zhong stayed in the Sun family, he initially tried to sell his daughter. Later, when he saw that Jia Yingchun was a good friend, his daily food and clothing expenses were much better than when he lived in Rongguo Mansion, and gradually he fell into In the beginning, I forgot to be clean, and I focused on eating and waiting to die.
Sun Shaozong was speechless for a moment, but Jia Yingchun misunderstood him and said hurriedly: "Tomorrow, I will let Yuanyang think of a way to send their father and daughter back to the Rongguo Mansion!"
"No need."
Sun Shaozong shook his head and said, "The left and right are also relatives, and there is not much of him in our family - he can live as long as he wants."
Saying that, a cat hugged Jia Yingchun by the waist and walked inside.
Jia Yingchun hurriedly stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his neck, but what he thought was: Could it be that the second master really has some thoughts about his cousin Xiuyan
