Chapter 654 Favored
Yu Yingzhi did not expect that Princess Duanxian knew him so well. He was so shocked that he hurriedly got up and bowed down again, "What's the matter with me? The princess is so favored by me!"
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, my grandfather and my father have to bring back the articles on the two lists every year to comment on them. The writing is like a person. Firstly, you can see the character of a scholar, and secondly, you can also know what a scholar is good at. To know people and do good work. Back then, my grandfather read Mr.'s article and said that Mr. "minds the country and has the people in mind", which is still fresh in my memory!"
Yu Yingzhi didn't expect that he would still be favored by Mr. Xie Ge. He was full of emotion, with tears in his eyes, "After passing the entrance examination, I stayed in the Ministry of Industry to watch politics. I originally wanted to spread my wings. Later, because of his stubborn personality, he was displeased by Shangfeng. In less than three years, he transferred Zai Xia to the county magistrate under Pingjiang Mansion and became a county magistrate. Perhaps he was really not suitable to be an official, and he offended Shang Feng again a few years ago. I lost my official position. I happened to be traveling with my wife and children, who knows, a month ago, I came down to Henan Mansion, and accidentally met King Mengjin on the street."
Yu Yingzhi didn't tell the story behind, Xie Zhiwei could guess it. She took a deep breath, thought for a while and said, "What's the plan, sir?"
After all, she is leaving tomorrow, and the other party is the king of the county after all, if it is not for her face, those servants may not be willing to leave today.
"There is no way to repay a life-saving grace. The reason why I came to Henan this time was to buy two acres of land here and try to plant a kind of food seed from a foreign land. If it is planted properly, the future of the Northwest will be No starvation."
Xie Zhiwei couldn't help but be overjoyed, her eyes suddenly shone brightly, she smiled and said, "What do you mean, sir, are you willing to give me the food seeds from the foreign land to repay your kindness?"
Yu Yingzhi thought for a moment, "I got a dozen or so seeds next time, and I gave a few to my close friends along the way. Now I don't have many, but I might give one or two to the princess as a reward for saving my life."
Xie Zhi smiled, "Sir, if I don't agree, how about threatening to repay my kindness? Although there are people around me who understand farming, there are not many, and he is old and not as knowledgeable as your husband. I don't know Mr. Are you willing to be used by the prince and follow him to build a career in the northwest?"
Yu Yingzhi was still a little hesitant, Xie Zhiwei said, "The prince is in the northwest and guards the gate of the country. Why, sir, he doesn't trust the prince, or is he afraid of Xiliang and Beiqi?"
Yu Yingzhi suddenly rushed forward with pride, "Although I am a scholar, I am not useless. If there is enough food and grass in the western border and the northern border, why should I be afraid of barbarians?"
"That's good! It's late at night, sir, take a rest for a night, and go on the road with me tomorrow."
The knife hanging above his head was taken away. Yu Yingzhi was relieved for a while, and Xie Zhiwei arranged for someone to prepare dinner for them. After the meal, the family gathered in the house, and the woman was very careful. He asked eagerly, "Master, did the princess really agree?"
Yu Yingzhi nodded, he is a Jinshi of the second list, and he still has some knowledge, and there are rumors in the south about the palace change more than ten years ago, saying that the concubine of the current emperor got the imperial decree and forced his elder brother to death, so he got the wrong position .
There are various legends about His Royal Highness Chen Wang's life experience, but they all agree that His Royal Highness Chen Wang is the only son of Emperor Zhaoyang, and the current throne should be inherited by His Royal Highness Chen Wang.
Whether His Royal Highness Chen is the son of Emperor Zhaoyang is not important anymore. What is important is that His Highness Chen managed the northern border of Western Xinjiang very well. man of.
Even in the south, there are many people who moved to the north with their families. It is said that those who come to the north will reclaim the land they own, and they will be rent-free for the first three years.
Yu Yingzhi came all the way from the south and knew about the rumor that Prince Chen was the posthumous son of Emperor Zhaoyang. Although some people did it deliberately, it became more and more serious, but it was not because of someone pushing the flames.
This may be a vision of the people.
No one can guarantee what will happen in the future. It is good that he wants to make contributions, but what if he will be beaten as a traitor one day?
will implicate his wife and children.
Yu Yingzhi vaguely expressed his worries. He looked at his wife and saw her frowning in deep thought, so he didn't bother her. However, his son Yu Youtong was very angry, "Father, if father is afraid of what will happen to His Royal Highness, the son is not afraid, the son will Once, if it wasn't for the princess who came to the rescue, I'm afraid life would be worse than death, if he could be a **** for His Highness Prince Chen, he would be dead, and my son would be happy with it."
Yu Yingzhi's wife, the Wang family, came from the Langya Wang family. After arriving in Dayong, although the Langya Wang family was not as good as the Xie family in Luzhou and the Cui family in Boling, it was still a prominent family in the local area and had a scholarly reputation for generations.
"My lord, what Tong'er said is very true. The people around the princess are all anxious and righteous people, and they are romantic and cheerful. Although I have never met the princess, I know it well. In autumn, it can be seen that the princess is of good character, and I think that good birds choose good trees to live in. If they can serve the princess, how can it be better than being an official in the court?"
Mrs. Wang sighed, "If that day really comes in the future, master, ordinary people will be scattered, and there will be many people in the world. The three of us are alone in a strange land, but no matter what, the three of us and our family will die together. stronger than others."
Yu Yingzhi made up his mind, "If that's the case, I will listen to the lady and Tong'er."
Xie Zhiwei had a good night's sleep here.
The next day, she got up to make up, and Du Yuan came up in a hurry, saying that the king and princess of Mengjin County had come in person, and they wanted to take Xie Zhiwei to the palace for entertainment.
Xie Zhiwei invited the Prince and his wife to meet in the West Flower Hall downstairs. She wanted to stand up and salute as a junior. The Prince of Mengjin and his wife were modest, but Xie Zhiwei didn't really want to salute, so he sat down and said with a smile, "If that's the case, The national ceremony will be waived, we are all of the same family, I am here, I should have come to see the ceremony, but I am in a hurry, if I am rude, I will invite the two Haihan."
The King of Mengjin was thinking about Yu Youtong, and was about to speak, when the princess said unhappily, "Look at what the princess said, the prince and I have to thank the princess, if it weren't for the large number of princesses, wouldn't we have to thank you?" Kneel twice and kowtow six times to the Princess?"
Xie Zhiwei glanced at Princess Jun, "Princess Jun is right."
Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Zhiwei was too lazy to talk to the two of them, so he picked up the teacup and expressed his intention to see off the guests, "My lord is still waiting for me to go to Beidi. Two left."
Xie Zhiwei showed extraordinarily arrogance, the princess of the county couldn't stand it, and sat still, "Prince Chen has made great achievements in the north, and he has his own awards and commendations from the court. The princess doesn't have to mention it in front of me and the prince of the county. Which one of the elders in my life didn't break through from the feathers of swords, spears and arrows?"
