Come to the rescue

, "Your Majesty!"

With a low cry, everyone looked back and saw Yan Qing standing under the eaves with a shocked look on his face. Even Jiang Weiren, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head at this moment.

Yan Qing frowned and couldn't help but persuade: "Your Majesty, sister, if this person really does something wrong, he can hand it over to the Jiangling Mansion for trial. If a lynching is carried out, it will be bad for the reputation of the Prince..."

Everyone in the courtyard looked at her, including Jiang Weiren who was kneeling on the ground. Zhao Congzheng was impatient, but he really didn't dare to lose his temper with her.

At this moment, an angry voice came from outside the courtyard, "You treacherous son, are you considering that no one can take care of you since your father is gone?!"

I saw the woman in brocade standing outside the hanging flower door. The maid behind her was supporting her, probably the old princess.

"I asked people to let him in. I also want to ask you about what happened to his father that day."

After saying that, the old princess ordered the servants around her, "Go and help Mr. Jiang up and send him back to his house. "

When Jiang Weiren was about to speak, the old princess shook her head and said: "Tingchen, the old prince liked you when he was alive. You have been walking around my house since you were a child. I have watched you grow up, so you are not considered a person. Elder, listen to me and go back first.

"Don't worry, I will give your family an explanation for your father's affairs. However, your father's funeral has not yet been held, and you still need to take charge of the family affairs. Let the doctor see it first." I will not let this treacherous son behave recklessly if I continue to provide for your father-in-law! "

Jiang Weiren looked up at the old princess. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and nodded. Just when he was about to be helped away by the servants of the palace, Yan Qing blessed the old princess and said, "Old princess, this young master must have been seriously injured just now. ..."

The old princess was so perceptive that she immediately said to the housekeeper of the palace: "Go and ask the doctor to send them to the Jiang family together.

"Mother and concubine! " "Zhao Cong said angrily, "He is a commoner, why do you still favor him? !

"Shut up! " "The old princess shouted, "When he was twelve years old, he was ranked first among all the scholars in Jiangling Mansion. He was awarded Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and Jinshi at the age of twenty. We are common people now, but what about in the future?

"Why does your father like him? Have you forgotten what your father said at the beginning? He said that Jiang Tingchen will be a man with a jade waist in the future. What is a man with a jade waist? He will be the king once! Do you think your father Don't you have a far-sighted vision? "

In the previous dynasty, the prime minister's belt was decorated with jade. Later, the person who said waist jade refers to the talent of the prime minister.

Yan Qing didn't expect King Lao Cheng to think so highly of Jiang Weiren. He was a child prodigy, and there was really only one Jinshi in his twenties. However, there were more than a thousand talented people in the imperial court, and how many of them could join the cabinet.

Not only her, but also Zhao Cong didn't take it seriously, "Being able to study doesn't mean you'll be an official. I don't understand why you and your father like such a humble boy.

"Especially my father, he just thinks I'm an eyesore and wants to recognize him. It would be nice to have him as your son, but you have spoiled him so much that you put your eyes above your head and don't take me seriously. I just want Jiang Weiren to see how much he weighs! "

The old princess was trembling with anger at his words and pointed at him. She was speechless for a long time. Seeing the mother and son carrying them like this, Yan Yu sent someone to help the old princess into the room to rest. In the blink of an eye, he saw Yan Qing came to Yan Qing who was standing under the eaves.

Yan Qing saw the panic in his cousin's eyes when he saw him, so he said, "Since my sister has family matters, my sister won't disturb her. "

Seeing her say this, Yan Yu was even more relieved. Today's family scandal was all witnessed by Yan Qing. It was not easy for her to turn away the guests, so it was just right for Yan Qing to take the initiative to say goodbye.

That day, when he came out of Prince Cheng's Mansion, Yan Qing was there all the way . Thinking about what happened just now,

she thought about what Zhao Cong said. He was about the same age as Jiang Weiren. Although he was a royal family member and the eldest son of the royal family, his parents were strict in discipline.

Although Jiang Weiren was from a poor family, But he was regarded as a child prodigy since he was a child, and he was famous far and wide. He had always been praised and flattered by Jiangling Mansion officials and the people, and he was even more glorious than the prince.

She looked at Zhao Cong and shouted in front of her. The guards beat people, and their narrow-minded personality was clearly revealed in their words. He had

probably always held a grudge against Jiang Weiren. After his father died, he inherited the throne. He should be the most prosperous person in Jiangling Mansion, but Jiang Weiren was in Beijing. He was selected as a Jinshi, passed the palace examination, and was appointed by the emperor as the second-level scholar. He stole the limelight.

Jiang Weiren had a great reputation. He was a Jinshi appointed by His Majesty. He was a protégé of the emperor. Zhao Cong could not move him without any crime, so he took the exam. Jiang Weiren's father got angry and got someone killed.

This kind of bullying and disregard of human life was not unique in the world, but today Yan Qing saw them beat Jiang Weiren to his knees, and he naturally felt pity for

his father . He is dead, his enemy is right in front of him, he knows everything, but he can do nothing.

What is wrong with him? He is jealous because he is too outstanding, and because he is powerful. , there is no way to redress the injustice. In the final analysis, the man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.

She was depressed all the way back to Yan's house. When he saw his daughter's face, Mr. Yan knew that something was wrong and asked, "What's the matter? Why is Nannan unhappy?" Already? "

Old Yan Ge had an upright life and had been an official for decades, but he only had a bad wife in his family. Yan Qing's mother was in poor health, and her strength was damaged after giving birth to her brother. It was not until Yan Ge was nearly middle-aged that she gave birth to a child. The next daughter, the couple naturally values ​​this girl more than their eyes. As long as Yan Qing is unhappy, Yan Ge will not be able to eat. Yan Qing

is young, can't hide things, and feels angry, so he will throw her away . He told his father what he saw in Prince Cheng's Mansion today.

The ups and downs of the old official Yan Ge were nothing to him, and the misdeeds of the royal family members were not just one or two, but as long as Even if they were impeached by the officials, His Majesty would turn a blind eye. However, it is rare for this mature princess to be so sensible.

"But the old princess will really help Jiang Weiren get justice ." What? "Yan Qing asked.

"What is justice? "Yang Ge Lao smiled and said, "If King Cheng really kills someone, it is only fair to kill someone and pay for it with his life. Can the old princess really let her son pay for it with his life? Seeing

his daughter frowning, Mr. Yan Ge said again: "But the old princess is a smart person, and her revenge for killing her father is irreconcilable." Jiang Weiren hated Prince Cheng's Mansion with a deep hatred. It was nothing for Prince Cheng's Mansion to deal with a scholar from a poor family.

"Although he has a great reputation, he has no backing. Compared with Prince Cheng's Mansion, he is nothing but an egg against a stone. But he is a Jinshi who was personally appointed by Zhan Qian, and the successor of Erjia. If he really kills them all, he will naturally alarm the capital and be the official. Once he participates in the performance, he must conduct a thorough investigation."

"That's good," Yan Qing said. "The truth will be revealed, let's see what he does."

Listening to his daughter's innocent words, Mr. Yan Ge did not refute, but shook his head and said with a smile. "The truth is out, so what? Nannan, have you ever seen a prince sentenced to death for the death of a commoner? Even if his crime is proven, it is just a loss of some fiefs and some food. It is not painful or itchy. "But what is the old princess afraid of ?

King Cheng has just inherited the throne, and his good reputation has not spread, so he has such a bad reputation, leaving an impression of arrogance and arrogance on His Majesty.

"This lineage of King Cheng has stayed in Jiangling for generations and cannot leave without permission. The new King Cheng will never have the opportunity to meet the saints in his life. The image he has left in His Majesty's heart will never be changed in his lifetime."

After saying this, Yan Ge The old man sighed: "If a person is dead and cannot be resurrected, he will die without evidence. The corpse will remain dormant for seven days at most, and it will be buried after seven days. No matter how troubled the Jiang family is, there will be no evidence. As long as the court is not alarmed, in this place of Jiangling, he will still be king. With one hand covering the sky, we will slowly deal with the Jiang family when the time comes, and we will have many ways."

"What should we do?!" Yan Qing suddenly grabbed the corner of his father's clothes and said nervously, "Dad, you haven't seen that King Cheng is so irritable and arrogant. Besides, he shouldn't have hated Jiang Weiren for a while. "I will definitely take action against Jiang Weiren in the future."

She has a pure heart. Although she has only met Jiang Weiren once, she has seen him beaten like that by those people during the day, and she doesn't know that he will become a king in the future. How to fix it.

"Don't worry, Nannan," Mr. Yan Ge said slowly, "Jiang Weiren, as his father, also knows that this year, he is presiding over the opening of subjects to obtain scholars. He is the leader among this group of scholars, and I also know his strategies. I have seen it, and I have gained a lot of lofty knowledge, and I am sure to be very successful in the future.

"After the imperial examination, he was awarded the title of Shujishi by the Hanlin Academy. After the autumn, he can go to the capital to enter the Hanlin Academy. If King Cheng wants to deal with him then, It’s not that easy anymore.

Yan Qing only frowned and said: "A monk who can run away can't run away from the temple. His family is poor. How many dan can a commoner earn? " It is impossible for him to take his family to Beijing. When his family stayed in Jiangling, they became fish on the chopping board, not just at the mercy of others. "

Mr. Yan Ge smiled, looked at his daughter and said, "But Jiang Weiren is lucky enough to meet my daughter today. "

——A

few days later, all the officials in Jiangling knew that Mr. Yan Ge had arrived, and the prefect of Jiangling immediately came to visit. After chatting with the prefect, Mr. Yan Ge asked him to submit this year's Jiangling High School students. Several Jinshi people called Yan's house and wanted to see him. Jiangnan has always been prosperous in education and prosperity in literature. Not only did it produce many famous people, but most of the people who won the Jinshi in the imperial examination were from Jiangnan this time

.

There were three Jinshis in Jiangling alone. Mr. Yan Ge was presiding over the imperial examination this time. He had read all their papers. In the imperial examination, candidates have always regarded the examiners as their mentors. These people were all admitted by him. Naturally, He wanted to be counted as his disciples,

so it made sense for him to call a few people to his house to meet him, which just showed his love for talents.

Jiang Weiren naturally came too, and Mr. Yan Ge exchanged a few words with everyone. But she left him alone.

Behind the screen in the hall, Yan Qing was eavesdropping.

She peeked out from behind the screen and saw that only her father and Jiang Weiren were left in the room. He was wearing mourning clothes today. , The plain white linen clothes made his demeanor even more noble. However, after not seeing him for a few days, he had obviously lost weight. Although he looked tall, his expression could not hide his fatigue.

"I have also heard about your father. "Mr. Yan Ge slowly spoke to him.

After listening to this, Jiang Weiren raised his head in surprise, his eyes flashing, then he lifted his robe and knelt down, saying to Mr. Yan Ge: "Please make the decision for the students! "

Old general Yan Ge helped him up and sighed, "You are a smart man. You ran to the palace that day. I think it was because you were so sad that you even became confused. "

Jiang Weiren was a little confused, wondering how Mr. Yan Ge knew that he had gone to the palace that day.

"The ancients once said that princes who break the law are as guilty as the common people, but do you think it is really written in the laws of any dynasty that the common people will be punished for their crimes ? And punish those royal families?

"You are a quick thinker and a talented person. Unfortunately, you are too young and have little knowledge. You have been dubbed a 'child prodigy' since you were a child. You have had a smooth journey and have not experienced much. In addition, this time is about your biological father and your closest relatives. Human relations make it difficult for you to do so. You can't calm down."

Mr. Yan Ge was straightforward and to the point, "I can be your 'master' as you wish. When I return to the capital next month, I will write a memorial and submit it to him to become the king. If the time comes, King Cheng will lose his sacred heart and his reputation."

As he spoke, Yan Gelao paused and looked at Jiang Weiren, "Then, what will your Majesty do with him? He is a prince, and he is the same as today. The Holy One is a family. His Majesty can only impose a slight punishment at most, but what about you and your family? How will you contend with the prince? If something happens to someone in your family again, who will make the decision for you? "

Jiang Weiren also reacted at this moment, "What you are saying is that it is unwise for students to go to the palace to argue with the enemy at the top of the battle."

Yan Qing sighed softly after cutting the screen. Jiang Weiren, who came from a poor family and lived in poverty for many years, finally won the title of Jinshi Guangzong Yaozu. He heard the news of his father's death just after he came back. Anyone else would naturally be overwhelmed by the huge grief. On the other hand, he dared to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion alone. , which is quite courageous.

"It's unwise," Mr. Yan Ge said calmly, "Since you claim to be a student, I will act like a teacher today. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. The best policy is to pretend not to know the cause of your father's death. Let King Cheng relax his vigilance against you.

"In this dynasty, non-Jinshi will not enter the Imperial Academy, and non-Hanlin will not enter the cabinet. You have been selected as a Jinshi, and you have been selected as a common scholar. You will also enter the Hanlin Academy in the future. Your future is unpredictable, and you can be brave. , may not have a future. When the time comes, you will have a chance of winning if you continue to figure it out.

"But now that you have broken up with King Cheng early in the morning, and King Cheng wants to attack you, how are you going to treat him?"

Jiang Weiren said no more, and just stood there with his head bowed. Mr. Yan Ge sat on the Taishi chair and ignored him. Just holding a tea cup and drinking tea, the room was quiet for a while, and I could only hear the birds chirping in the spring light outside.

Yan Qing looked at the screen and saw Jiang Weiren's shadow on the ground. He was as thin and slender as others, but he also looked fragile and lonely.

He was only in his early twenties, and now he not only lost his father, but also had to shoulder the burden of the family. The reason was simple, but how many people could really do the so-called hard work and hardship?

After a while, he slowly spoke: "The student is wrong. What you taught me is that your willingness to say these words to the student today is a great kindness to the student. The student will definitely follow the teacher's teaching today."

Mr. Yan Ge was also a little moved, and said: "You were called by me today, and Prince Cheng's Mansion will naturally know about it. They can also guess that I know about it. You are my disciple after all. Now people like Jiangling also know about me." I value you, and no matter what happens to Prince Cheng in the future, he will not dare to deal with you in a big way.

"He has to be afraid that I will really interfere with him, but you also know that after all, I still have some relationship with Prince Cheng's Mansion. Today's Princess Cheng is also a member of my Yan family. I can only do this. It's up to you to take care of yourself in the future. "

After saying that, Jiang Weiren slowly knelt down again and kowtowed to Mr. Yan Ge, "What my mentor said today, Weiren will deeply appreciate it and will never forget his kindness throughout his life. "

Get up," Mr. Yan Ge said calmly, "The reason why I am like this is because I was entrusted by others." If you can really become a great talent in the future and help the country and the people, you will be worthy of what I have done today. "
