Chapter 65 Are you from the Northeast?

He Liangjun is a local and has been friends with Qian Zheng for many years. He has long heard of Qian Yuan’s reputation of being stubborn and mean. In fact, he did not believe in the rumors that Qian Yuan is now "warm and as gentle as jade".

But after knowing the origin of Qian Yuan and Sun Sheng, He Liangjun believed that birds of feathers gathered together. Last year, he became famous in Beijing because of Sun Sheng's strong recommendation. Sun Jiquan could afford the word "warm as jade" in dealing with people.

He Liangjun in the carriage glanced at Qian Yuan opposite him. After all, this little guy was still young and had a little off-sighted temperament. He lifted the curtain from time to time and looked out.

Poor Qian Yuan hasn't come out for more than a month. When He Liangjun came to pick him up this morning, Lu Shusheng said a few ugly words with a stern face, and wrote three questions for Qian Yuan to submit tomorrow... You can ask for leave, but the question still needs to be done!

"If you can get personal guidance from Mr. Pingquan, Mr. Qian will definitely pass the exam in a row in the future." He Liangjun chuckled.

"Mr. He is my uncle's friend, so call me Brother Yuan." Qian Yuan put down the curtain and smiled shyly, "I don't know who is the one I visited today?"

"This person's surname is Gu, his name is Dingfang, and he is also a friend of your uncle." He Liangjun introduced: "He was the grandson of Gu Ying, a famous official in Songjiang during the Tianshun period. He always neglected money and was very righteous, and had a strong temperament."

He Liangjun and the Qian family discussed it. This time they wanted to see it, but they didn't inform Qian Yuan in advance, after all, they were still filial.

Qian Yuan frowned, "Mr. Gu retired and returned home, so I came to see you?"

This is very obvious. Since you are negligent and kind, your friends must be everywhere in Songjiang. Why do you have to come to visit me? There are always other reasons.

The little guy thought a lot. He Liangjun smiled and continued, "Your uncle was a Jinshi in the 14th year of Jiajing and was elected as a Shujishi. At that time, the one in charge of the Hanlin Academy was Xia Guixi, the Minister of Rites and the Hanlin Scholar."

"I know this. Later, Xia Guixi was abandoned from the city. Yu Maojian, the Minister of Justice, and Tu Qiao, the Censor of the Left Capital, quoted the ministers to write a letter to reduce the death penalty. Only the uncle who was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel at that time wrote a letter to the uncle who was in charge, and was later exiled to the capital." Qian Yuan blinked, but he didn't know that his uncle and Xia Yan had a teacher-student relationship.

In theory, the officials of the Hanlin Academy are all students who are in charge of the bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy, but in fact this relationship is not absolute.

For example, Xu Jie, who was the chief minister of the cabinet and in charge of the Hanlin Academy, said openly to Zhang Fujing, who was the chief minister of the cabinet, and in charge of the Hanlin Academy: "Betrayal is born from attachment. If I don't rely on you, how can betrayal come from?"

However, if there is a relationship of dependence or support between the two, it can be said that the status of teachers and students, such as Zhang Juzheng and Xu Jie in the future.

Between Xia Yan and his uncle...

Faced with Qian Yuan's question, He Liangjun explained: "When the restaurant was separated, Xia Yan wanted your uncle to stay in the Hanlin Academy, but your uncle refused."

Qian Yuan twitched the corners of his mouth. Isn’t he stupid?

The image of an official who is strong but does not know how to adapt is gradually taking shape in Qian Yuan's mind.

He Liangjun brought the topic back and continued: "After Xia Guixi's death, your uncle was exiled from the capital. Gu Dingfang cried and ordered his son Gu Congli to cry and collect the body."

After a pause, He Liangjun sighed: "Brother Qian resolutely wrote a letter to the capital and did not regret it. Gu Dingfang was willing to take a chance to collect the body of Xia Guixi. Both of them were admired by the government and the country, and they also made friends since then. Although they met very little, they had a heart of each other."

Qian Yuan's eyes flashed and he whispered after a while: "So, I want to visit Mr. Gu?"

Qian Yuan is not that stupid. His uncle is away from office and his friend is resigned. In this case, a letter or gift list of aunt is enough to deal with it. Why do you have to come forward as your nephew?

Could it be that Gu Dingfang wants to see him?

"Mr. He, you just said...Mr. Gu is strong?"

"No," He Liangjun pondered for a moment and said: "Last year, I asked about the principles of using medicine, and asked about 'use of medicine is like using people'; then asked about the way to maintain health, and 'clean the mind and few desires'."

Faced with such an answer, Qian Yuan was expressionless and speechless.

Well, he is indeed a tough person, not just a strong person, but a tough person!

Jiajing was a famous emperor in history who liked to practice alchemy and Taoism. He had a bad temper and a stubborn temperament. You told him that he had to be clear-hearted and have few desires to live longer... You are so lucky if you didn't chop it up.

You should know that in the mansion report more than a month ago, a large number of officials only missed the word "Wanhou" in the congratulations. Each of them was exiled from the capital after receiving forty sticks.

Shanghai County is not far from Huating County. After all, Songjiang Prefecture is much smaller than Shanghai in its previous life. Jiading and Chongming are now under Suzhou Prefecture.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of Gu's house, Zhang San and Yang Wen and others were guarding the gatehouse, and the servants led He Liangjun and Qian Yuan into the inner courtyard.

"Magistrate Zheng is so honest, this is a blessing for Songjiang." The tall old man stood in front of the hall with a loud voice, "You tell me to do this."

The middle-aged man on the side responded respectfully, and the old man called him again, "I asked someone to buy 30 acres of land in Zheng County and give it to his family, and the New Year holidays and weekly benefits are not spared."

He Liangjun, not far away, whispered: "Seven days ago, Shanghai magistrate Zheng Gaozhuo passed away and his family was unable to return to the burial..."

Qian Yuan licked his lips, thirty acres of land, he was really a matter of money and righteousness!

"Are you the Qian family?" Gu Dingfang pointed at Qian Yuan and shouted: "I can't come and let me take a good look."

Look? What to see?

Qian Yuan, who was confused, walked over behind He Liangjun. Before he could stand firm, Gu Dingfang frowned and said, "I heard that you fought with the incompetent Xu family on Suzhou Street?"

He Liangjun's face changed and was about to explain, Gu Dingfang waved his hand, "Let this kid say it himself."

"It's my younger generation Meng Lang." Qian Yuan smiled bitterly, cursed in his heart, and once again took the blame for his predecessor!

"Meng Lang? A young man must have this kind of aura. Talking his mouth is a woman's job." Gu Dingfang snorted, "But what I am not satisfied with is that you were actually knocked down and were still in a coma for a few days!"

Qian Yuan's cheeks are bulging. How come you are from the Northeast, don't you bet if you can do it?

He Liangjun, who was standing beside him, was also wiping the cold sweat on his forehead.

"But it's quite appropriate for me to fight with the Xu family. Come in." Gu Dingfang turned around and walked into the hall, "Your uncle must have not scolded you for this, right?

"Uh, it seems that there is no." Qian Yuan blinked, and his uncle had never mentioned this in several letters.

"Hehe, your uncle has never had any contact with the Xu family. I have long seen that Xu family is unhappy!" Gu Dingfang laughed and said, "I heard that the Xu family is domineering in Songjiang, but unfortunately Huating does not have this momentum in the court!"
