Chapter 600 Mixed joys and sorrows

At the end of June, the heat gradually faded and the day was still hot. However, at night, the breeze was whispering, and the weak people would inevitably have to cover a thin quilt when they fell asleep. Although there were curfews at night and the fences on key streets were closed, there were too many dignitaries at the foot of the emperor. At night, there were still mule carts or horses passing by the streets from time to time. There were also many officials' houses that were brightly lit, which was obviously another night that could not sleep all night.

Among them, the mansion of Wang Daokun, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War, has been like this for several days. Since receiving a letter from Wang Fulin who sent him back from Liaodong, the three brothers of Wang Daokun were all stunned. Wang Daokun's original intention was to let Wang Fulin go to Jizhen during the candidate period after he passed the Jinshi, and be familiar with his old friend Qi Jiguang, so that he would not be too unfamiliar when he needed help in the future. As for Wang Fulin taking the initiative to go to Liaodong, he also agreed, because he had visited Liaodong at the beginning and knew Zhang Xueyan and Li Chengliang, a pair of civil and military officials. I think Wang Fulin was just traveling, and others would always take care of him.

As a result, Wang Fulin's halo of disaster stars was so fierce that even if he ran to Liaodong, where he was unfamiliar with his life, he could cause such a big deal!

Because Zhang Xueyan's memorial sent to the capital was 600 miles in a hurry, and he passed the post station all the way, but did not change people, so he was only two days later than Wang Fulin's memorial and family letter. Wang Daokun had not yet thought about whether to send it, so Zhang Xueyan's memorial was already sent to the Tongzhengsi. So, he couldn't bear it and could only send the things to his old boss and friend Tan Lun, asking Tan Lun to help him submit it. Next, Li Chengliang's memorial was also delivered. Now the court was in chaos.

Who would have thought that what caused such a great storm was a new Jinshi who just passed the exam last year and has not been officially awarded an official position yet?

At this moment, in addition to the three brothers Wang Daokun, Wang Daokun and Wang Daokhui, the father-in-law of Wang Fulin and the Fujian Division of the Ministry of Revenue. Although Ye Dakuao took office for less than a year, with his solid style and Master Gui who is proficient in Qiangu, Sasuke from the side. The matter was handled in an orderly manner, and his superiors and colleagues could not provoke it, so he gradually accepted such a guy who was promoted very quickly. But he was cautious in front of others. At this time, in front of people who were more familiar and close, his style of cannon could no longer help.

"What's wrong with Fulin? How many Han people in Liaodong have been kidnapped by Jurchens for decades. Now that they want to recruit Jurchens to surrender, they must of course put these Ming people first! The father and son of the Li family only know that they have achieved military achievements in beheading, but they don't know how to rescue these Han slaves in dire straits. Now they are still embarrassed to write a letter to point fingers! There are also those censors who talk nonsense, but they can do anything else? Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, spoke to Fulin, saying that this is just to accept his assignment. They are still jumping up and down, it is obvious that the drunkard's intention is not to drink, it is not for Fulin, but for you, Brother Nanming!"

Wang Daokun rubbed his temples with some worries, and did not stop Ye Dapao, who was indignant, but said thoughtfully: "Don't let the topic go so far. Fulin's matter is still a disagreement between Zhang Xueyan and Li Chengliang. However, even the Prime Minister told Tan Butang privately that if these Han slaves were placed in the Jurchens, they would be like to be a military success. When fighting, they would cut off these people's heads, which would be considered military success. The court's rewards would be too generous. The only question is how much impact this incident will bring to the Jurchen tribes, and whether it will make Liaodong soldiers and horses throw themselves into trouble when fighting. The follow-up will be a big problem."

Wang Daoguan was still sitting lazily and leisurely, and sneered at this moment: "Wang Gao had just been slapped in public. The effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers was enough in the eyes of some people in the court. In their opinion, instead of fighting against the Jurchens, it would be better to guard against Chahaner's Tumans and Tainingwei's quick-handed Hai, which is the biggest threat to Liaodong. As for the Jurchens, it is just a small problem. The lives of a few Liaodong Han slaves are not their lives. Why do you care about this? However, finally, the Censorate is not all like this rats who are not kind enough to calm down. There are still a few who support Fulin."

"The problem is that Fulin has caused such a big trouble before he even became an official. Recently, someone has found out all the old accounts he had done in the past. For such a subordinate, who should not be bothered by any boss?"

When Wang Daohui talked about this, even Ye Dapao, who was the most protective of his son-in-law, was silent. His father-in-law, knew the combat power of Wang Xiaoguanren. When he was in She County, he was the gods who blocked the gods and killed the Buddhas. He was invincible. He, the magistrate of She County, could sit steadily and earn a lot of political achievements and contributions into his arms. It was not a blessing to entrusting his son-in-law? But the problem is that it is of course good to have such an assistant who would not be able to take credit for his contributions when he was the chief official, but it would be terrible to have such a subordinate. Look at the few trips Wang Fulin had left Huizhou Prefecture and ran out, including this time, which one would not cause any major incidents?

But no matter how big it is, it is not as good as this trip in Liaodong this time! I heard that it was calm when I was in Ji Town, so he thought his son-in-law had changed his temperament. Now it seems that the disaster star is about to be upgraded to a plague god!

"So, Zhang Xueyan recommended him to go to the Censorate, where people dare to speak and speak. But the Censor of the Censorate is not a new Jinshi who can be appointed as a post when he is in office. He either takes the position first or becomes a county magistrate and then transfers it. In short, Fulin's qualifications are far from enough. Zhang Xueyan's recommendation is simply to put him on the fire." Wang Daohui said this, suddenly frowned, and then his brows stretched out again, "Is it that Zhang Xueyan's meaning that Fulin is not only innocent in the Liaodong situation, but also has made contributions? When he was first appointed as an official, can he mention it?"

"Although Zhang Xueyan is the governor of Liaodong, he doesn't count his words alone. Everything depends on the direction of the censor and Yuan Fu's intentions." Wang Daokun said this, thinking that Zhang Juzheng has become more and more arbitrary in his employment recently. He has persuaded him twice, but it has attracted not approval but alienation. Some people even covet his position as the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War. He has been constantly open and secretly arrows for several days. He suddenly felt a deep sense of frustration. If his position as the Minister of the Ministry of War is unsteady, wouldn't Wang Fulin even bend down and everyone push it?

He narrowed his eyes tiredly, then pinched his fingers and calculated: "It has been almost half a month since Fulin sent a letter to the capital to Zhang Xueyan's letter? I really hope Fulin can come back soon."

Ye Junyao thought the same way. Not only did he hope that his son-in-law would come back quickly, but his daughter would also hope that he would come back quickly. Three years after marriage, the couple knew that they were causing trouble outside. This young couple was so sarcastic! Xiaobei, the girl, relied on her parents-in-law to love her, would not have any sense of crisis!

However, the court dispute did not have a result so quickly. Even though Zhang Juzheng monopolized power and was arbitrary, there were still various voices in the court, and it was still stalemate for a while, and several days passed.

The two-in-one courtyard with a stable prepared by Wang Daokun for Wang Fulin is now in Ye Junyao. Mrs. Su, who once brought her youngest son Ye Mingtang and the eldest son Ye Xiaopang back to her hometown to take the Taoist examination, has already brought her two sons to the capital. With her first-class smart man in charge of the inner house, the Ye family is in order and even brought Qiufeng from the Wang family to continue studying with Ye Xiaopang as before. However, the two daughters were all married, and there was a little less voice in the house than before. She naturally spared a lot of time to do something else. After a while, she found something interesting in the huge capital.

But now that Wang Fulin and Xiaobei have not come back, it is not time to uncover the matter.

"Madam, Madam." Yan's mother, who had not been with him before, but was left by Wang Fulin to take care of Ye Junyao, quickly stepped in and said with a smile, "Brother Wang Jiabao came from She County. He had just been to the Wang family. Now he is here to visit the master and wife!"

Mrs. Su was so familiar with Jin Bao. She immediately laughed when she heard the news: "Come in!"

After leaving Ningbo at the beginning of the year, Mrs. Su heard that Jinbao shone in the Taoist test of Huiningdao last year, and he was the first to win the first case. Because Jinbao was less than thirteen years old at that time, he caused a lot of sensation in Huiningdao at that time. The small house on the back street of the county town of She County and the old house renovated in Songming Mountain were almost broken by the people who proposed marriage. However, Wang Fulin's very unreliable father, Wang Daoyun, finally did not make any mistakes in the game, and pushed all these and kept Jinbao at home to study, but only promised Wang Erniang a scholar in the Wu family in Xixinan on the other side.

Of course, this was sent to discuss with Wang Daokun before making a decision. At that time, Wang Fulin traveled to Jiliao. Wang Daokun's mother and wife were married from the Wu family in Xixinan. He also knew that it was the legitimate brother of Wu Yingming, the Wu family in Xixinan who was familiar with Wang Fulin at the time. So he informed the in-laws Ye family and then replied to the letter to approve the matter. Mrs. Su knew that it was just because Wang Fulin loved both sisters very much. Wang Daokun thought of dragging out one more insider, so he could make less complaints after Wang Fulin came back. After all, Wang Erniang was already very old, and she had been picking and delayed until now.

At this moment, Mrs. Su was sitting upright in the main room. Seeing the door curtain lifted up, a thirteen-year-old boy with a long and handsome body came in. His face was still a little shy. As soon as he met, he knelt down and kowtowed, "I've seen my grandmother."

Mrs. Su didn't bother to sigh that she felt a little old all of a sudden, so she quickly helped her up and then smiled: "After leaving for so long, I've grown taller, and I've become a scholar again. But I can't change this kind of polite habit. Did I just arrived today? Why didn't I send someone a letter early? How long have I walked on the road?"

Jin Bao was humble for a while before he sat on the chair Mrs. Su, and then said embarrassedly: "It's the date of my second aunt's wedding is approaching. My grandfather asked me to go to Beijing to send a message to Mr. Zhongyan, Mr. Zhongjia to see if they can go back to their hometown to participate, and whether my father can catch up. So I was anxious to come out. I just arrived this morning and took the road by land, which took more than 20 days."

He had just said this, and suddenly he heard a lot of noise from the outside, and he was a little confused. He knew how strict Mrs. Su was. Su was indeed aware of the strict rules. As expected, when he saw that Mrs. Su was covered in frost and obviously was dissatisfied. But the next moment, he saw that the curtain was suddenly knocked open, but a familiar figure rushed in.

"Mom, I'm back first! Huh? Isn't this Jinbao?"
