In fact, as long as you think about it carefully, you can find the flaws.
But Tang Fan, who had always seen Weizhi's works, was completely unaware of it at this moment, and his mind was full of words that only Sui Zhou said.
He looked at Sui Zhou with a rare gentle look. For some reason, he should have felt relaxed, but he was not happy at all, so he could only dryly say: "Well, that's really congratulations."
"Thank you." Sui Zhou patted him on the shoulder, "She is also acquainted with you, and you and I are brothers and sisters, so even after we get married, you can continue to live here, and you don't have to rush out."
This sentence seems to remind Tang Fan on purpose.
When he said this, Tang Fan realized that after Suizhou got married, he would definitely have his own family and have his own life to live. No matter how good his friendship with Suizhou was, he was an outsider after all. Besides, Tang Fan was not without his own. Home, how can you be cheeky and die
Suizhou said again: "After I get married, you can continue to eat here. Although my cousin doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers, she will bring the fire maid over here. Even if I am not in the house, someone will cook."
When Master Tang heard this, his mood became even lower.
Sui Zhou saw that he was completely stunned, like a dog with a drooping tail in the rain, and said strangely: "Didn't you ask my sister to help me see each other before, and heard that I was going to get married, do you instead Not happy?"
Tang Fan smiled absently: "How can it be, I just think it's a little too sudden."
The other party's calm voice drifted into his ears, but it added a sense of illusoryness: "Runqing, you should take the bastard words I said earlier, don't take it to heart, from now on, we will still be brothers and sisters. brother."
Master Tang hummed twice, and forced a smile: "What bastard words you said, I have long forgotten."
Sui Zhou gave him a deep look: "That's good."
After dinner, Tang Fan excused himself to go to the next door to teach his nephew his homework, so he came out from there.
The words "Your heart is happy, your heart can be the same" reverberated uncontrollably in his mind, and it became a mess, and he walked to a certain family's house unknowingly.
Tang Fan raised his hand and patted the door a few times, and after a while, the door was opened.
It was Wei Mao who opened the door.
The other party was a little surprised: "Yo, isn't this Master Tang?"
Tang Fan asked, "Can Duke Wang be here?"
Wei Mao said: "It's here! The old man doesn't have to be on duty in the palace today, he is just resting here, please come in!"
After Wang Zhi returned to the palace, he naturally had to spare no effort to manage and rebuild his forces that had been suppressed and suppressed. On the emperor's side, it's okay to say that when he looked at Wang Zhi, he remembered what happened when Xichang was dismissed by others. He felt ashamed, so he gave Wang Zhi a house outside the palace, allowing him to not be on duty. Time to live outside the palace.
Although he has made great contributions at the border, Eunuch Wang is now seen by everyone as a tiger without claws. Everyone can be deceived. Therefore, those who have been troubled by Xichang in the past have stumbled on him openly and secretly. During this period of time, Wang Zhi was busy dealing with these things, the counterattack that should be counterattacked, the forbearance that should be forbearance, and the Qiuhou who should settle accounts.
However, compared to the time when he was in charge of the West Factory, Eunuch Wang has obviously learned to be secretive. Although this house was bestowed by the emperor, it does not look at all inconspicuous from the outside. It is not much different from the surrounding dwellings. When you look at it, you will find that there is something special inside.
When Tang Fan came, Wang Zhi was about to fall asleep, and when he heard him coming, he had to put on his clothes and come out to greet him with an impatient face.
"In the middle of the night, what are you doing?"
A good sleep was disturbed, and of course his tone would not be much better.
Which visitor will come to the door in the middle of the night
Tang Fan was stunned: "I just finished dinner, why did you fall asleep?"
Wang Zhi was angry: "That's natural, you think I'm enjoying the day in the palace! What's the matter, let's talk, Wei Mao, there's no need for tea, he'll leave after he's finished!"
Tang Fan: "..."
Wei Mao smiled helplessly at Tang Fan, which means that Mr. Wang has a bad temper, please bear with me, and finally go out and let people serve tea.
Tang Fan sighed.
Wang Zhi had never seen him look so melancholy, but he was stunned for a moment.
Is this... Really
"Why, who did you offend, and you're going to be impeached again?"
Tang Fan sighed again.
Wang Zhi: "… "
Tang Fan: "Do you have any wine here?"
Wang Zhi was inexplicable: "You came to my house in the middle of the night and asked for a drink?"
Tang Fan: "A drunk can relieve a thousand sorrows."
Wang Zhi: "...why don't you tell me, don't tell me I'll let Wei Mao see off the guest."
For the third time tonight, Tang Fan sighed deeply: "I have encountered a problem, and I don't know what to do."
Wang Zhi raised his eyebrows: "There are still problems in this world that you can't solve?"
He was aroused by Tang Fan's words.
It just so happened that the servants of Wang's house brought tea, and Wang Zhi said, "I will replace it with wine."
After three rounds of drinking, Tang Fan was a little addicted. He wanted to pour the wine, but when Wang Zhi hit the back of his hand with chopsticks, he immediately turned red.
"Tell me about your problems." Eunuch Wang said displeasedly.
Master Tang was a little aggrieved: "Why are you so stingy, you don't even give me your house wine!"
Wang Zhi: "..." It hasn't been three cups yet, so why are you drunk
Fortunately, Tang Fan didn't have the idea to whet his appetite. He just mulled it over and over in his heart before finding a euphemistic way to express it.
"Someone expressed admiration for me."
"Oh." Wang Zhi's interest suddenly lost most of it, and daring has nothing to do with political affairs.
Tang Fan didn't care whether Eunuch Wang liked it or not, he said to himself: "I rejected him, he is getting married now, but I feel it, but I feel a little uncomfortable."
Wang Zhi hit the nail on the head: "That proves that you also like her. Since the two are in love with each other, go and tell the other's parents. You are now a fourth-rank official, you have no family, and your appearance is not shabby. The parents of the other party will definitely not object. , that's it, that's it, butler, see off the guest!"
Tang Fan: "..."
Can you be more sympathetic
Tang Fan: "I can't be with him."
Wang Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Why is this, the other party is a married woman?"
Tang Fan shook his head.
Wang Zhi: "The other party was born in a brothel?"
Tang Fan shook his head.
Wang Zhi: "Do you have a hidden illness? Can't do personnel?"
Tang Fan: "..."
Wang Zhi: "...I guessed it right?"
Tang Fan shook his head sharply.
Wang Zhi: "Don't say I beat people again."
Master Tang hesitated: "He, he is a man."
Wang Zhi looked at him, frowning slowly.
Tang Fan avoided his eyes, and poured himself a few more glasses of wine. The usual hot wine was unexpectedly refreshing, and his stomach burned straight to his throat, and even his face was full of peach red.
Wang Zhi's face was strange, and suddenly a sentence came out: "Could it be Sui Guangchuan?"
Tang Fan coughed violently, and even tears came out.
Wang Zhi's expression was unfathomable.
He expressed neither contempt nor surprise.
This is not because Eunuch Wang is well-informed and thinks ahead of time. Because of the popularity of men in the Ming Dynasty, officials were clearly ordered not to go to prostitutes. There are policies above and countermeasures. Everyone thinks that women are not allowed to accompany men, right
As a result, although the ordinary brothels still exist, they all follow the trend and do one more business, and the Nanfeng Pavilion has also become popular, especially in the southeast area, which is even more popular.
It is not common for a man to express his admiration for another man, but in the Ming Dynasty, it was not really uncommon.
Wang Zhi hehe twice: "I have long felt that the kid has bad intentions for you, and dare to wait here. Since you are interested, why don't you agree?"
Tang Fan frowned drunkenly: "I want to continue the Tang family's incense, it is impossible for him not to marry a wife and have children, but in my heart, there will be a couple for the rest of my life, and the two love each other, and they shouldn't let each other down, so why bother Others, why don't you just, just... Can you understand?"
Wang Zhi: "No."
Tang Fan: "..."
Wang Zhi: "You told me to continue the incense?"
Tang Fan: "..."
He suddenly remembered the identity of the other party.
As an eunuch, Wang Zhi is not unable to continue the incense. The most common method is adoption. Many eunuchs do this. Those who have relatives will adopt the children of relatives, and those who have no relatives will choose another.
Ordinary people are not ashamed to have a powerful father-in-law in their family, but they are proud of it, because it means that the family will also become rich and noble.
But talking about the continuation of the incense in front of the eunuch himself... ahem, it really offends people.
Tang Fan's eyes widened, looking at him innocently.
Wang Zhi sneered: "If your skin is itchy, just say it, I beat you, and then throw you in front of him.
Master Tang's mouth was flat and he didn't speak.
After being drunk, his behavior was obviously far more childish than when he was sober.
When he was wise and scheming, he looked like a master no matter how he looked, but now it makes people want to slap him twice in the face
In order to avoid being found fault by Suizhou in the future, Wang Zhi had to endure this impulse and called Wei Mao in.
"Go, call Sui Guangchuan over and ask him to bring people back quickly."
Wei Mao agreed, and after a while he hurried back, followed by Sui Zhou.
Seeing this, Wang Zhi raised his eyebrows.
Wei Mao stepped forward and whispered, "My subordinate ran into him outside when I went out, and I don't know how long I have been standing there."
Wang Zhi sneered: "If you are so nervous, why bother!"
Since Suizhou came in, his eyes have been on the drunk Tang Fan.
The latter hadn't noticed Suizhou's arrival, and was staring at the empty cup in a daze.
Suizhou answered Wang Gonggong's question with two distractions: "If he doesn't realize that he can't lose it, he will always choose to escape."
Wang Zhi: "As I said, why do you have to be so tossing about it? It's business as usual when you have a biological child. You can do whatever you like. Is there anyone else who can't stop it!"
Sui Zhou shook his head: "Since I can't tolerate someone around him, I naturally won't let him endure it."
Wang Zhi clicked his tongue twice, fully expressing the two meanings of "difficult to understand" and "too lazy to talk nonsense with you".
"It's alright, alright, hurry up and bring people back, don't disturb my sleep, it's nothing, I have to enter the palace tomorrow morning, let's go!"
There was no need for the host to wave and chase people away, and Suizhou quickly left with them.
Tang Fan is a glutton, but that doesn't mean he's good at drinking.
After a few cups of burning knives, he put him down, and in the end, he completely revealed his thoughts to others, so that someone could see it clearly.
Until he was carried back, he was still in a trance like a dream.
"... Guangchuan?" Lying on Suizhou's back, Tang Fan asked uncertainly.
Suizhou: "Well."
Tang Fan was at a loss: "Why are you here, am I not at Wang Zhi's house?"
Suizhou: "You're drunk, I'll take you home."
Tang Fan snorted: "You're not married anymore?"
Suizhou: "..."
I don't know if the other party answered or not, but Master Tang couldn't help falling down and fell asleep.
After waking up the next day, Tang Fan had a splitting headache. He was in a trance about what happened last night. It was impossible to say that he had completely forgotten. There must be some vague impressions. But I don't remember that clearly.
He wanted to ask Sui Zhou, but he felt ashamed and embarrassed. He wanted to find Wang Zhi, but the other party was very busy, and it was impossible for him to be in the house outside the palace every day.
In desperation, Tang Fan had to play stupid.
However, some people couldn't see him fooling around. After a few days, Tang Yu found him.
"I asked Guangchuan for a chance before, and he said that he already has a crush, so I don't have to help him meet."
Tang Fan was stunned for a moment, then remembered that he wanted to marry his cousin of the Qiao family, but also remembered that after he was drunk that night, the other party seemed to have said something about not getting married, and he couldn't help but curse Sui Guangchuan, you bastard, do you still want to step on two boats !
He asked casually, "Who is his crush, why don't I know?"
Tang Yu sighed and did not answer the question, but instead said: "Maomao, tell your sister honestly, do you not want to get married for the time being?"
Seeing her questioning seriously, Tang Fan solemnly replied, "Yes, I'm running all over the world now, and occasionally I'm in danger. It's not good for a good girl to marry me, and I have to be afraid every day."
If you say this, don't those frontier soldiers have to marry and have children in their entire lives
Tang Yu glanced at him, knowing that this was an excuse, but she did not expose him. Since she talked with Governor Sui, some thoughts in her heart have quietly changed.
No matter what, the Tang family is left with their sister and brother, their father and mother passed away early, and the eldest sister is like a mother. Although Tang Yu is willing to see Tang Fancheng's biological son, he does not want his brother to be unhappy.
Seeing that he is ignorant now, I'm afraid he still doesn't understand what he thinks. Tang Yu has experienced what happened to He Lin, and he never wants to see his brother repeat his mistakes in the future.
Husbands and wives, husbands and wives are husbands and wives, they can't be kind, but they will make the younger brother and his wife become grudges in the future, right
Naturally, it's better if Tang Fan likes it himself.
Tang Yu has now figured it out. People live forever, and all they want is to be happy and happy. If they can do whatever they want, why should they force the shackles on their bodies
Don't do what you don't want to others. Of course, she can't force Tang Fan to do what she doesn't want.
After pondering for a while, Tang Yu brought up another matter: "Maomao, in your opinion, if Qilang changes his surname to Tang, is it possible?"
Tang Fan frowned when he heard this: "Sister, don't you take Qilang's angry words seriously?"
Tang Yu shook his head: "I just think that the He family is not bad for their grandson. After this time, He Lin is so arrogant and arrogant, maybe he will propose a divorce, then we can take the opportunity to propose That's the condition."
Tang Fan smiled bitterly: "You think too simplistically, Qilang is now the link between the Tang and He family, if he changes his surname to Tang, it means that we have completely cut off the relationship with the He family, and it is impossible for the He family to do it. Such a stupid thing."
When it comes to this kind of thing, Master Tang's brain immediately becomes easy to use.
Hearing what he said, Tang Yu frowned with worry, "How about that?"
Tang Fan said: "Sister, Qilang is still young, so it's okay to say something angry, do you really want him to change his family? I'm afraid I'll blame you instead."
Tang Yu said: "I talked to Qilang long ago. He is not too young now, so there is no need to hide many things from him. He has already told me that he really wants to change his surname and does not want to go back to the He family."
In fact, the reason why Tang Yu wanted to completely distance himself from the He family was due to another concern. Now, both of Mr. He's sons are in office. For the sake of himself and his nephew, Tang Fan would definitely not refuse, but Tang Yu didn't want to cause trouble to his brother.
Tang Fan's expression was solemn: "What the hell is he thinking? Although He Er has done a lot of wrong things, he is Qilang's father after all, regardless of blood relationship or status. If Qilang doesn't recognize his father, he can go anywhere. It doesn’t make sense, and it will be criticized in the future.”
Tang Yu shook his head: "It's not that he doesn't recognize his father, he just doesn't want to be involved with the He family. Before you came, he was in the He family school, and he was bullied every day. Those classmates knew that his father would not care about him, and they became more and more He was bullied so badly that he didn't dare to tell me, it was only when I discovered the scars on his body one day that I found out."
Tang Fan was furious: "Why didn't you tell me about such a thing, when I was in the He family, I should have returned it together!"
Tang Yu laughed: "What can you do? Those are all children who are similar to Qilang. If you can't fight back, wouldn't it be a big bully? In the end, Qilang was too weak at the beginning, and I was the one who took the lead. The mother can't protect him either."
Tang Fan said, "Even if you were inconvenient to show up at the time, brother-in-law didn't care. Could it be that the He family is dead, and Mr. He didn't care?"
Tang Yu was silent for a while: "Qilang said that among the people who bullied him, there was He San's son, so Mr. He just turned a blind eye."
If he is bullied too hard, Mr. He will naturally come forward, but this is just a small fight between children, and He San is the youngest son of Mr. He, so he will definitely be partial.
Although Tang Fan knew that He Cheng was bullied a lot when he was in the He family, he didn't expect that the incident left such a deep impression on him that he was reluctant to go back to the He family.
Thinking about it now, back then, the father's inaction, he lived in a daze, blamed his mother, was ostracized by his classmates, including his cousins, was influenced by his elders, and was not friendly to He Cheng. Children's performance is often the most straightforward. White hurt.
These all left scars on He Cheng's heart, which could never be erased. If Tang Fan hadn't intervened, it would be hard to guarantee that he would be another He Er when he grew up.
Thinking of this, Tang Fan's impression of the He family was a little worse.
"Actually, if you want to completely sever ties with the He family, it's not without a chance." He said.
Meeting Tang Yu's inquiring eyes, Tang Fan smiled: "I heard a piece of news, it is said that Enke will be opened this year."
Every major celebration, such as the emperor's or the empress dowager's birthday, the birth of the prince, etc., in addition to amnesty, the emperor may also choose Kaienke to celebrate the whole world.
For those scholars all over the world who are still on the road to the imperial examination, it is of course a great joy to open Enke, which means that they have one more chance to take the exam and one more chance to be named in the gold list.
Seeing that Tang Yu didn't understand what he meant, Tang Fan said: "He Er is not looking forward to becoming an official, as long as he can be admitted to the juren, he has the qualification to be an official, although there are many monks and few porridge, I may not be able to help him win it. The position in the capital, but if you want to release it, there is no problem. At that time, you will use this as a condition to force him to let go of your mother and son. If he is willing to leave, the He family can't say anything. "
Tang Yu: "What about Qilang?"
Tang Fan smiled and said, "This is easy to handle. Before reconciliation, you wait for the two of you to conclude a marriage document and let He Er join the Tang family, and then Qilang can change his surname to Tang, and then reconcile. After you reconcile, Qilang Since it is the Tang family, of course there is no need to go back to the He family."
Tang Yu was stunned: "This, this is also OK?!"
Tang Fanchao showed a sly smile to his sister: "The law of the Great Ming does not stipulate that this can't be done."
Tang Yu was speechless.
With her younger brother's intelligence, if she was willing to spend one cent on finding a daughter-in-law, it is now estimated that all the ladies in the capital are crying and shouting that they want to marry into the Tang family
But then again, even if Tang Fan didn't care about it, wouldn't he also attract a bunch of peach blossoms
Thinking about what Sui Zhou had said to him earlier, Tang Yu couldn't help but secretly wiped away his sweat.
