Chapter 22 Make a secret decision to be reborn
There is still a new change in the old doubts.
Just entering June, Lijing heard about Mr. Wei Yuan's resignation to Ninghai.
It's another completely different situation from the previous life!
Byeong clearly remembers that when he married the king of Chu's mansion, Mr. Wei was still in the west seat of the house, but the students were no longer your wives and became the third brother Su Qian. Until his death, Wei Yuan had no intention of resigning.
First, the appearance of An Jin, and then Yu Yu's youth became famous, and Wei Yuan's resignation... These events that deviated from the original were not changed because of the rebirth of Yijing, so what happened and what is the connection between them?
Although these changes have not caused any bad consequences at present, the uncontrollable factors still make the scenery feel a little worried. In order not to deepen this emotion and make it confused about the future, Yijing summarized what needs to be done in front of us and decided to follow its own plan regardless of these changes. Continue to move forward.
The big direction is determined, but some detailed plans still need to be adjusted.
Because Mr. Wei has officially proposed to resign, and the Duke of Wei has not chosen a new western seat for the time being, the little women have to enter the stage of suspension of classes. Considering that Yichen is already fifteen, and she will have to consider marriage as soon as the eldest princess's birthday is over, Huang simply proposed to let her take care of the family affairs and prepare for the future. Naturally, the eldest princess would not object, and the little ladies were not surprised, but inspired the scenery.
If they are no longer ignorant, the elders may not only regard her as a naive child. Some words and some things may not be hidden, especially if they can make their grandmother change her mind... In the future, they will naturally be less restrictive and much more convenient.
Yijing believes in her intuition very much. Her grandmother must know the strange things in the king's mansion, but she feels that she has hidden something when she is young. She can't change her age, but as long as her temperament changes and she is steady and cautious, she will definitely make her grandmother change.
When my grandmother was 12 years old, she had already hired the battlefield, and after all, she was no longer the soul of an ignorant girl.
With a new plan, the scenery immediately began to implement it.
This morning, because my aunt was going out as a guest, she didn't have time to spur Yijing to practice riding and shooting. Yijing decided to go to Yuanying Hall to say hello first.
In front of the Mingtang, Linglong wore a very energetic red skirt, as if she had been dyed brilliantly by the morning glow in the distant sky. She stood in the porch and watched several women carry a purple glazed carved flower and bird screen, constantly telling them to be careful and carefully. Seeing the beautiful scenery avoiding the side of the road, she quickly greeted with a smile. Before: "Wuniang is so early today? The old lady and the madam are talking inside.
"Why did you move this out early in the morning and where are you going?" Yijing took Linglong's hand affectionately and asked with a smile.
"It was Mrs. Lian who went to Jia's house to celebrate Mrs. Jia's birthday, and the old lady ordered to add this screen as a gift." While taking the beautiful scenery to the next one, Linglong answered respectfully.
Jia Mansion? Isn't it my aunt's future husband's family? Counting the days, the marriage of the little aunt is almost agreed. In my memory, Aunt Jia is also an interesting person. A few years ago, the little aunt was "famous" and became a talk between Jinyang noble women and Langjuns. Although most people praised the heroine, worthy of being a general tiger girl, there are also those pretentious drand girls who said that their aunt My aunt is too wild. I'm afraid she will be a Hedong lion in the future. The Langjun of the Jia family also fought for her aunt and taught those who said sour words a hard lesson.
The grandmother appreciated Jia Lang's righteous words, and also moved the idea of marrying Jia's family. She inquired about the Lang Jun's character carefully. Later, when his grandfather died, this matter was delayed.
In the past, beautiful scenery accidentally heard the maids talk about it, saying that although the eldest aunt was seven years old, she was also a representative talent. Because of the study tour in those years, the marriage was once delayed. Later, when he returned to Beijing, it was not too late to discuss marriage. His grandfather and grandmother died one after another. After several years of filial piety, he wasted to the second Twelve years old; three years ago, before the marriage with Jiafu was agreed, his grandfather passed up. Everyone thought that Jia Langjun had reached such an age and was afraid it could not be delayed. They never thought that Jiafu had never discussed marriage with others in the past three years. It can be seen that Jia Langguo really admired his little aunt.
In the last life, after marriage, the little aunt and Aunt Jia's father sang together, raised their eyebrows and lived a very happy life.
This life should still be the same.
Thinking about this, the corners of her lips took a happy smile and entered the room. She saw Liu Niang sitting on the big kang near the window, holding a book in her hand and concentrating. The maid on the side stood quietly aside. Seeing the scenery, she was just silently blessed, and she didn't even dare to breathe too much.
Obviously, the Duke's wife and the eldest princess are talking inside, and there is no time to see the little ladies at this time.
Yijing went to Liu Niang and saw that she was still reading the Mingshan Anthology, but it was copied by Liu Niang herself. Obviously, it was no longer Yu Yu's handwriting.
The shadow was shining on the page of the book, and Liu Niang found that there were more people in the room. She looked up at the scenery lazily, as if reluctantly saw the salute, and said like gold, "Fifth sister, good morning."
"Six sister, good morning, why don't you see the eldest sister?" Yijing sat down next to Liu Niang. Such closeness made Liu Niang feel a little strange. A pair of clear eyes looked over, but subconsciously moved her body.
In these days, Yijing intended to be close to Liu Niang, but Liu Niang always suspected that she was uneasy and kind-hearted. In addition, she was a cold-faced person, so she stubbornly kept a distance from Yijing. She didn't care about the scenery. She only flattered Liu Niang, which made the maid Xiaozhu beside Liu Niang feel sorry and completely put down her warning for Jingjing. Prepared.
Seeing that Liu Niang had no intention of answering, Xiaozhuan hurriedly answered with a smile: "The old lady will go to Jia's house with her and be busy changing clothes and dressing up, so she went back to Zhi Lanxuan first."
Liu Niang quickly entered the book again and made it clear that she was indivisibility to the scenery. Xiaozhuan and Qiu Yue felt that the atmosphere in the room were frozen and looked at each other in condolence, shaking their heads helplessly. Yijing did not disturb Liu Niang any more, but went to sit on the chair outside the partition, and she happened to hear the conversation between her grandmother and her mother.
"Mrs. Jia sent the post in person. I heard what she said, and the meaning is obvious. If my mother also agrees, I will give her a letter today to teach the Jia family to formally propose marriage." In the inner bedroom, Huang sat at the head of the eldest princess and reported modestly and gently.
Su Lian is the only daughter of the eldest princess. Naturally, this marriage can only be decided by the eldest princess. If it hadn't been for Huang's mother-in-law and the Jia family, she would not have dared to suggest it.
However, she thought that the eldest princess would agree immediately, but she did not receive a response for a long time. Huang was a little uneasy and couldn't help looking at Mother Song standing next to her.
Mother Song was so keen that she immediately smiled and relieved the siege: "Lian Niang is the heart of the princess, and the princess is reluctant to give up for a while. However, seeing that Lian Niang is 18 years old, even if the princess is reluctant, she has to consider it."
This sentence is said to hit the heart of the eldest princess. She is reluctant to leave, but the woman is reluctant to stay. No matter how much she loves her daughter, she can't be detained for a lifetime.
"In your opinion, what about the Jia family?" This is a question from Huang.
"The Jia family is a family, and his ancestors have also had several prime ministers and officials. Although it is all a matter of the previous dynasty, the foundation is still stable. Lord Jia is currently the secretary of Taichang Temple. He is an important position in the Qing Dynasty and is not at the center of power. He is safe. The Duke of the country often mentions it, which is also very commendable." Huang observed the expression of the eldest princess and carefully considered her words: "Mrs. Jia is modest and famous in the aristocratic circles. Several daughters under her knees also learned about the book etiquette. My daughter-in-law has inquired about it. Jia's Dalang has only one room for so many years. She is the maidservant around her and an honest person..." P>
For decades, there has been no general room with his father-in-law. Huang was only worried that the eldest princess would be dissatisfied with this, but after all, Jia's Dalang is 25 years old. If there is no general room around him, it really doesn't make sense.
Slightly hesitated, Huang couldn't see the joy and anger of the eldest princess, so he had to brace down and say, "Although Jia Jia Dalang is only the deputy envoy of the Casting and Printing Bureau of the Ministry of Ceremonies and has not yet entered the stream, he has entered the six departments, and is also a student of Songtao Academy, and the family background. There is no need to worry about the future, that is, it is, to match our family. Mother, he is still a high climb.
The eldest princess's only daughter is only the children of the royal family, but the princes have been married, and the princes are one generation shorter than Su Lian, so she can only marry lower.
Since the removal of the service in March, many noble women have come to Huang's family to mention Lian Niang in a roundabout way, and they also hope to marry the Duke of Wei. Even the lady in Jinxiang's mansion has praised her son several times with special intentions, but Huang's mentions in front of the eldest princess, there is no follow-up.
Huang guessed that her mother-in-law should not want her sister-in-law to marry into the important minister's mansion. No wonder, now Jin Xiang and Qin have become water and fire, and the competition in the court is fierce, and the Duke of Wei has become the object of flattered by both sides. Who let her mother-in-law be the saint's aunt, and the prince of the country is trusted by the emperor? At this time, if you marry Jin Xiang or Xun Gui, you will make it clear your attitude and be against Qin Xiang and the meritorious officials of the previous dynasty.
Although the Jia family is a family, it is not at the center of power. Even if Lian Niang married, the position of the Duke of Wei is still neutral.
In Huang's opinion, this family fact is the most appropriate.
At this time, beautiful scenery was "eavesdropping" outside the fan, and also tried to think about the powerful relationship. At least she has read a few history books recently. She also has a deep understanding of marriage and understands that a family like her own family should not only consider the character of the other party, but also pay attention to the political position of the in-laws, but she has not heard the ancestor for a long time. Mother's reply can't help but be worried about the future "Aunt Jia".
She knows what will happen. Of course, she hopes that her aunt and Jia's family can form a good relationship and fall in love with each other as they are destined.
"Mother...is the daughter-in-law unconsidered?" The silence of the eldest princess finally made Huang unable to calm down and asked uneasily.
"You are thoughtful, but Lian Niang has a hot temper, and I'm afraid it won't fit the eyes of the family..." The eldest princess finally said, "At this time, I'm still there, and I'm supported by her eldest brother, and I'm not afraid that others will criticize her, but I'm afraid that there will be a chance in the future..." But after all, she didn't say any unuspicious words: "These Over the years, I have also seen the behavior of the Jia family. He is indeed very good and responsible, but it's better not to give the Jia family a word first.
What does this mean?
The Huang family and Mother Song in the room couldn't figure out the intention of the eldest princess for a moment, and the beautiful scenery outside could not hear whether her grandmother was for or against it.
"Although it is the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, I have to rely on Lian Niang herself in the future. I want to ask her what she means first." The eldest princess did not say anything. She glanced at the partition fan with a slight smile in her eyes: "Come in, Jing'er and Feng'er."
The beautiful scene, who was concentrating, was shocked. She knew that her grandmother was smart and clear. If she had known that she was eavesdropping outside, she couldn't help spit out her tongue and took a deep breath before pulling Liu Niang in together.
looked at Luohan's sitting grandmother on the couch with a guilty heart. Seeing that her eyes were gentle and did not mean to blame, Yijing just sighed, blessed Liu Niang, and obediently sat on the brocade pier beside her.
The eldest princess said, "I didn't remember until I saw the two children. Doesn't it mean that Mr. Wei has submitted his resignation and can choose a new western seat?"
Huang quickly replied, "The Duke has been busy with official business recently, and he hasn't been interested in taking care of this matter for a while."
When Meijing saw Mother Song standing aside, her mind suddenly and the inspiration flashed, she said, "Grandma, isn't it appropriate for my father not to have a staff, but a student of Songhe Academy?" He only looked at Mother Song and saw that she had no response. Yijing added, "I heard the eldest brother often mention that he was a talented person, as if he were called Li Jihe."
Mother Song still lowered her eyes and didn't ** about the name.
The scenery can't help but be sure. At least at this time, Mother Song did not know Li Ji and this person, but it is clear that Li Ji and she has a grudge against Mother Song...
There must be an entanglement between these two people. Mother Song doesn't know, but Li Jihe understands. Does this mean that maybe the enemity with Song is not Li Ji and himself?
If you want to talk about the age difference between the two, is it that Li Jihe's parents have an old resentment with Mother Song?
If Li Ji and really can do this Western seat, they will have the opportunity to have further contact with him in the future, and they may be able to find out.
The eldest princess shook her head: "He is a famous student and made a special trip to vote. I think he is hoping to become an official. I'm afraid he won't be impatient to be the western seat of you little women."
Yijing was slightly disappointed, but after thinking about it, she still did not give up fighting for it: "This gentleman is said to be a student personally taught by Ding Hongru. If he is determined to become an official, he can be directly recommended by Ding Hongru. Why do he need to be such a father's staff? It's better to mention it to him first. If he is embarrassed, don't force it."
Ding Changsu, a southern scholar, has passed the year of war. He is eighty-three years old. Although he is the dean of Songhe Academy on the surface, he has not taught in person. Li Jihe is only 26 years old, but he can be personally instructed by him. In today's students, it is indeed not difficult to become an official, and there is no need to go to the curtain. The bureaucrat has such a bumpy road.
In Yijing's view, this Li Ji and he traveled thousands of miles to Kyoto to worship the Duke of the State of Wei, probably because of Mother Song, so being a Western seat is naturally nothing to him. Maybe it suits his wishes.
Naturally, the eldest princess will not think about this, but she also feels that the beautiful scenery is reasonable. She thinks that it is really rare for her granddaughter to think so deeply at such a young age. The look at the beautiful scenery is a little different from the past.
Only Huang was puzzled: "If it's not for the sake of becoming an official, why do you have to vote?"
"The temperament of literati is different from ordinary people, such as Mr. Wei, which refers to our family's collection of books..." Yijing smiled and said, "I think that Mr. Li is different from secular mortals. Since Mr. Wei can be our Western banquet, it is not easy to ask his grandmother to ask him in person."
The meaning of the words is that the former famous teachers of these little women are also high enough. Li Jihe's talent name is not as good as Wei Yuan, and the eldest princess came forward, which is not regarded as the Duke of Wei to neglect Songhe students.
The eldest princess pointed to the scenery and said with a smile, "You will put gold on your face, that's all, I have to mention it, so as not to delay your father's official business."
Huang also had to go to Jia's house for a banquet. Naturally, she would not stay much. After a few words, she said goodbye. The eldest princess took her two granddaughters to the backyard, sitting in the shade of flowers tasting tea, and asking Yijing, "I heard that you have been fascinated by historical books recently?"
"The previous son went to Muhuilou to borrow a set of Biography of the Five Emperors of Dongming. After a closer look, I realized that these historical books were not so dull and were more interesting than those travel notes." The beautiful scenery is like a little yellow warbler. She doesn't sit well. She lies on the eldest princess's lap. Her small magnolia-like face is slightly raised, and her eyes reflect the fading morning glow, as bright as stars.
After listening to this, the eldest princess wanted to think about what Yijing said today. She seemed to have some insight, so she wanted to test her: "Try to your grandmother, where have you seen it, and what do you feel?"
Yijingcai got up from the eldest princess's knee and sat down next to Liu Niang. Qingqing said solemnly: "After reading the biography of the Eastern Ming Yuan Emperor, to talk about the Eastern Ming Yuan Emperor, he can also be known as the previous generation of Ming monarchs. Although he was born in a reckless background, he emerged in troubled times and finally unified the Central Plains, created the 300-year prosperous era of the Eastern Ming Dynasty, and established After the Eastern Ming Dynasty, he worked hard to govern, build canals, consolidate river embankments, and do a lot of good things that benefit the country and the people. But I don't know why it is necessary to abolish the selection of scholars in different subjects. Instead, it imitated the ancient system and implements the system of recommendation, Renzi and other official selection system, so that even if students from poor families are full of learning, it is difficult for them to serve. Emperor Yuan's move really leads to history. There are different praises and criticisms from families.
At first, Liu Niang didn't care about it. After listening to Yijing's words, she was not interested. She actually swept away the past words like gold: "The division of scholars were popular in the Western Wei Dynasty and the pre-Ming Dynasty, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, due to serious fraud in the academic field, many decades of cold windows were unable to bribe the examiner because of their poor family, even though they were full of scriptures. It can only come to the end of falling into the name of Sunshan. The appointment and removal of officials were actually controlled by treacherous ministers and formed a party for personal gain, which led to the pre-Ming people's poverty and riots. Later, it led to the war of military generals from all over the country, resulting in the destruction of the former Ming Dynasty. The military generals supported their own soldiers and made themselves as princes, which made the country chaotic and divided into ten countries. I think that the Yuan Emperor of the Eastern Ming Dynasty took the destruction of the former Ming Dynasty as a lesson, so he intended to reform the official selection system.
The eldest princess nodded frequently and praised, "What Feng'er said is very true."
Ji Jing said with a smile, "The sixth sister is erudite. She read more historical books than me and knows more things than me, which makes me ashamed as a sister."
In the past, beautiful scenery would not be convinced to make Liu Niang grab the limelight, and she must say something sarcastic. With this praise, the eldest princess didn't feel anything, but Liu Niang was very surprised. The eyes looking at Yijing were finally different from usual, and she actually smiled.
It's really not easy to get a smiling face of the sixth sister!
Yijing was cheered and then said, "However, my granddaughter still can't figure it out. In fact, the system of opening a doctor is not bad, but it is the reason why the court's treacherous ministers control it. Her granddaughter believes that the court should hold a public assessment more fair than recommendation and recruitment."
The eldest princess was stunned and looked at Yijing with a little deeper meaning, but asked Liu Niang, "What do you think of Feng'er?"
Liu Niang was thinking about the question raised by Yijing. When she heard her grandmother ask, she was also stunned and shook her head for a while: "Granddaughter is just half-in-a-a-knowledge, and she can't say."
Seeing the two granddaughters staring at themselves, the extremely similar clear pupils, shining with thirst for knowledge. The eldest princess also moved her mind and decided to break it down carefully: "In fact, no system is impeccable, but mainly depends on the person in charge of this system."
