Chapter 833 Self-written scrolls share the same disease (the first update asks for a monthly pass!)

   Baochai actually asked Feng Ziying this question, but Feng Ziying was vague, but Feng Ziying also said that Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng must be destroyed, which made Baochai roughly understand Feng Lang's current situation.

Feng Lang is no longer an ordinary jinshi. From the 5th year of Yonglong's Xinke jinshi to the selection of Shujishi, to the great achievements in suppressing the rebellion in the western border, and then returned to the court, he proposed the strategy of opening the sea, which made him Suddenly became a hot red man.

If it's just these things, that's all, but after a while, it will gradually cool down. The key lies in Feng Lang's teachers. , there is also a right servant of the household department who is also a secretary in the palm of the hand. Such a prominent background has attracted countless people's attention, and it will naturally attract some people's fear.

  A person who is too good will naturally bear the jealousy and hatred of more people. Baochai can understand that it is probably the combination of these reasons that forced Feng Lang to go out of Beijing to avoid the limelight.

The deeper reasons, such as Feng Ziying being criticized by scholars in the north for her strategy of opening the sea, and Feng Ziying herself also wanting to take the opportunity to go out of Beijing to avoid the possible turmoil in the capital city in the past two years, are not what Baochai and the others can do. Got it.

"Sister Lin should know better." Baochai calmly threw the topic to Daiyu. She knew that it was inappropriate for her to say that Feng Ziying might be released as an official if she couldn't hold back. , it is more appropriate to turn the topic to Daiyu now.

Sure enough, Daiyu's face softened a lot, and she pondered for a while before saying: "Maybe he jumped up too fast, none of their second-class Jinshi in the same department, or even his colleagues in the Imperial Academy, are as popular as him, little sister I heard that Brother Feng and his teachers also think this is not good, Brother Feng is too young, and his qualifications are too low,..."

  Although the girls here are not familiar with the affairs of the court, they are all from official families after all, and they still know a little about the rules of seniority and seniority.

The Jinshi of Yonglong 5th year has completely overwhelmed the Jinshi of the previous Yonglong 2nd year or even the first two subjects, that is, the 42nd year of Yuanxi. Some were dissatisfied, and Feng Ziying was naturally the first to bear the brunt. Even Lian Guoshi, Huang Zunsu and Yang Sichang received less criticism than Feng Ziying alone.

   This certainly cannot damage Feng Ziying's reputation and his impression in the hearts of the emperor and the cabinet princes, but it will inevitably affect the perception of him by some middle- and lower-level officials and gentry.

   "Speaking of it, Brother Feng is still too young, but shouldn't Brother Feng show off his talent? You have to learn to follow others' advice, so what should you say when you share your worries?" Tanchun said dissatisfiedly.

   "Hey, Tan Yatou's words sound like she wants to be the elder of the court. If the third sister is a man, I'm afraid she should be the number one in the exam and become the first assistant."

  Shi Xiangyun also had a rough idea of ​​Feng Ziying's situation, and knew that the inside story was not as simple as Daiyu said, or that Daiyu and Baochai knew it but were unwilling to explain it in depth.

   Originally, it was not their turn to discuss this, and it would inevitably be a little embarrassing to talk about it further, so Xiangyun deliberately continued to make fun of the girl to divert the topic.

Although she didn't know that Feng Ziying would release Beijing as an official, she also went back to Zhongjinghou's and Baolinghou's home for a while a few days ago, and heard the conversation between her two uncles, saying that Brother Feng was in the public office. Hai Zhilue only benefited the court and benefited Jiangnan, but the gentry in the north were deceived and got nothing. It is estimated that this reason made many people dissatisfied.

"Si Yun'er, are you trying to mock me again? If I were to be the chief minister, I'd put you in prison first, then gag your mouth with a cloth, and fine you not to speak for three months..." Tanchun bared his teeth and claws, He pretended to tear Xiangyun's mouth, which caused everyone to laugh.

   A small episode was diverted by Shi Xiangyun.

But Baochai noticed that when Tanchun and Daiyu mentioned the Hanlin Academy, Baoqin's face changed slightly, especially when Daiyu mentioned "colleagues of the Imperial Academy", she was a little touched, and she became more and more sure that it was probably the Mei family. Something has happened there, and the marriage with Bao Qin may have some twists and turns.

   It's just that under such circumstances, Baochai can't ask in depth, so he can only ask in detail after returning to Hengwuyuan.

  After dinner, Baoqin followed Baochai back to Hengwuyuan, Yinger also noticed that her girl and Baoqin girl were not looking well, so she quietly brought up the rose dew, and then retreated.

"Tell me, why don't you keep it from me?" Baochai's tone was gentle and calm, but there was a hint of coldness, "Auntie didn't tell my mother, it's fine for Brother Tad to keep it from my brother, why? You want to hide it from me, Baoqin, when are you going to hide it?"

Baoqin could hear that her sister was really angry, and everyone said that this sister was very difficult to see her angry side, and she always had a calm and calm temperament, but today she had such an attitude, Baoqin Qin is also a little guilty.

Hurry up and apologize, Baoqin didn't dare to sit down, so she sighed and said: "Little sister also knows that I can't hide it from my sister, but I don't want to know too many people, even my mother and elder brother only know a general idea, and I don't know what May is. The family's true attitude, but I know that the Mei family may have long wanted to regret the marriage and withdraw from the marriage,..."

"Repentance?!" Baochai couldn't help standing up, her voice raised several times, her face showing disbelief and sullenness, "Baoqin, what immoral thing did you do to make the Mei family regret their marriage?! Tell me clearly!"

The two families of the Xue family, the two males of the previous generation have passed away, and the theory in this generation should be that Xue Pan is the eldest son of the eldest son, so he should be the talker, but everyone in the Xue family knows Xue Pan's temperament Naturally, they would not pin their hopes on him, but Baochai, who is calm and calm, became the backbone instead.

"Sister, why did my younger sister do something immoral?" Baoqin's face was white, but her brows were full of sadness. He seldom goes out, and he never leaves Jinling for half a step, so how can he lose his virtue?"

   "Then why did the Mei family dare to mention the matter of regretting the marriage and renouncing the marriage?" Xue Baochai couldn't believe it.

Engagement and repentance and resignation among officials and gentry are not trivial matters. Needless to say, engagement, repentance and resignation is not as good as reconciliation, but it is not much worse if you take the initiative to propose resignation. Convincing reasons will be regarded as broken promises and despised by scholars.

The Mei family is a well-known family in Huguang, and Mei Zhiye was born as a Jinshi. He entered the Imperial Academy for a few years, and now he is going to be promoted and transferred to Shuntian Mansion Zhizhong. If he proposes to retire at this time, it will definitely affect his own reputation. Similarly, Bringing up this kind of resignation will do even more harm to the Xue family.

You must know that the Mei family itself is from the Huguang clan, not to mention, the key is that Mei Zhiye, who was born as a Jinshi, has a good reputation in the scholarly circle. It is a huge blow to the disadvantaged imperial merchant family, no matter whether the Xue family is justified or not, it will not win the understanding and support of many literati.

Because the influence and the right to speak of the two parties are not at the same level, the natural contempt and contempt of the scholars towards the merchants determines that even if the reason for the divorce is not sufficient, the public opinion will still put the Xue family in an extremely unfavorable situation. Down.

But no matter what, if you propose to withdraw for no reason, then the Mei family will definitely suffer some backlash. This should be very unfavorable to Mei Zhiye who has just transferred to Shuntian Mansion. Baochai does not believe in the Mei family would be so unwise.

"Sister, in fact, there have been signs that the Mei family wanted to retire. Since the year before last, letters from the Mei family and our family have become less and less. Like nothing, until last month, the Mei family finally wrote back saying that they want to dissolve the engagement." Bao Qin sighed leisurely, "As for the real reason, my little sister probably has nothing more than the fact that the Mei family is now more famous in the scholarly circle. It is said that the boss of the Mei family has already passed the Juren examination last year. Although Chun Wei failed, the Mei family has become more and more brilliant. In comparison, our Xue family's current status is a bit bleak, so..."

  Bao Qin's words made Baochai's heart tense immediately, thinking that Feng Ziying would let go of the official soon, and the second room would be restored to the title and Jianxie, would he also face this situation?

Baoqin was actually engaged to the Mei family, but it was only a private agreement between herself and Feng Lang. Although Feng Lang promised a thousand pieces of gold, this kind of marriage still had to be ordered by her parents. what should i do

  Thinking that once the news of the Feng family's second wife's restoration of the title and concubine spread, would these high-ranking families in the capital city miss such a good thing? As Baoqin said, the current Xue family has been bleak and declining, how can it compare with those famous families of the scholarly family?

  Suddenly confused for a while, Baochai almost wanted to ask the Mei family the specific reasons and reasons for breaking the engagement with Baoqin.

"The Mei family said that they received news that a businessman sued his father in the Suzhou Yamen for collecting and selling the stolen goods for Fengcheng Pawnshop in Suzhou a few years ago, and that the death of his father was the result of the father's decision to buy them..." Baoqin sighed. "This matter is really absurd, not to mention whether Fengcheng Pawnshop has actually accepted stolen goods, even if there is such a situation, it is just a common occurrence in the industry, and most of the shopkeepers are blind or greedy for cheap , how can you get the head of the boss? Moreover, the father has passed away for several years, but he insisted that it was the father who made the decision, which is clearly a false accusation!"

besides!
