Chapter 127 Leaving Beijing
Chapter 127
Zhou Mengchen took Yang Jisheng to secretly meet many Zhou Dang people.
Of course, there are not many people.
Although Li Ru had a close relationship with Zhou Mengchen, Li Ru, as a nobleman, was in charge of one-third of the troops in the Beijing camp, could not have too close relationship with the ministers. Therefore, Zhou Mengchen did not meet in Beijing this time.
The Zhou Party members are many in various places, but not many in the capital. The only yamen of the Imperial Heaven Supervision is considered to be among Zhou Mengchen's disciples. Some of the other yamen are only among the middle and lower levels. They are barely considered eyeliners.
When Zhou Mengchen left, he didn't bring too many to send him.
Zhou Mengchen was in the capital, but he was about to leave after staying for more than a month. Li Yunzhen was very reluctant to let him go. Although he had regrets in his heart, he wanted to ask his husband to find a title. But this was definitely not said in front of Zhou Mengchen.
Zhou Mengchen was facing Zhou Datong at this moment and said, "You have figured it out."
Zhou Datong said: "Think it clearly."
Zhou Mengchen said, "Have you really thought it through?"
Zhou Datong nodded cutely and said, "I really think it through."
Zhou Mengchen said, "Then you don't regret it. It's very hard to learn martial arts."
Zhou Datong looked at Li Yunzhen timidly, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't regret it."
When Li Yunzhen heard this, she was so angry that she was almost raising her hand to hit her. Zhou Mengchen hurriedly stopped her and said, "My family doesn't want any future for children. If he has a skill and can stand in the world, it's already done."
"Elder General Yu is a decent person. Even if he doesn't learn martial arts, he will not learn bad things under the old general. At least he cannot be allowed to become a person like Yan Shifan."
Zhou Mengchen was so tolerant, but in fact he had already recognized a fact that he could not replicate. The reason why he was better than the ancients was because he had received modern education.
Not to mention the modern education system, how much money is there for more than ten years of education to everyone. Just talking about the knowledge that Zhou Mengchen learned is priceless in this era.
He had no chance of letting his son receive such education.
Even if your son is a genius, it is unlikely that he will surpass his achievements.
Therefore, he had very low expectations for his son, and had his status to support him. Not to mention it too far, it was decided that there would be no problem to make his children and grandchildren rich throughout his life. Since this is the case, he naturally let his son do whatever he likes.
I hope every child can become the person he wanted to be when he was a child, not the person his parents like to be. Although Zhou Datong wants to use his left hand to over Guo Jing and his right hand to hit Yang Guo, it is unlikely. However, it is possible to become the world's number one master in martial arts.
But whether this can be achieved depends on Zhou Datong's own efforts.
Zhou Mengchen could only find him the best teacher in the world.
Zhou Mengchen's educational philosophy is simply out of place with Li Yunzhen. Li Yunzhen thinks that Zhou Mengchen is a Jinshi, and his child is at least a Juren. Zhou Mengchen is now a Shangshu. His son can at least be a governor in the future.
This is the Zhou family.
This conflict in concepts is irreconcilable.
Li Yunzhen sneered and said, "Do you think I am a loving mother and a bad son?"
Zhou Mengchen smiled apologized and said, "The child is still young and is not sensible now. When he becomes sensible in the future, he will know what to do."
After all, Li Yunzhen is not a modern woman. Modern women can divorce her husband in this matter. However, Li Yunzhen will not disobey Zhou Mengchen. When he saw Zhou Mengchen laughing, he stopped talking. Then he looked at Zhou Tunan in his arms and said, "Okay. I won't care about Datong. But Tunan, I must teach him well. If the boss doesn't do it, let the second brother support the door."
Zhou Mengchen could only agree with Li Yunzhen's practice of abolishing large entries and changing to small entries.
After all, Zhou Mengchen also knew how important it was to be a Jinshi in the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that a Jinshi can protect three generations of the family. After all, the imperial examination is the right path for this era. If the child is willing, Zhou Mengchen would not refuse.
Zhou Mengchen said: "I will leave the family affairs to you, especially my mother."
Li Yunzhen said, "Don't worry."
I will send you a thousand miles away. I will eventually part.
Zhou Mengchen left very low-key and did not invite anyone to say goodbye. However, as soon as he left the city gate, he was stopped.
But I found that it was no one else, but Li Chunfang.
Zhou Mengchen was stunned and said, "Brother Li, you have not congratulated Brother Li on Gao Sheng yet."
Li Chunfang said, "Brother Zhou, you are the same year, why should you be so polite? Now that I have left, I will not even let me practice it. It is really too dissatisfied."
"Where, where." Zhou Mengchen said, but he kept turning in his heart. He was thinking about why Li Chunfang came.
Li Chunfang was the top scholar in the 26th year of Jiajing. He should have been the natural leader of the Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing. But in fact, the limelight of the Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing was snatched by Zhou Mengchen. Many people also depended on Zhou Mengchen and were promoted step by step.
Zhou Mengchen was the second place and Zhang Juzheng had a very good relationship. Li Chunfang, the top scorer, was suppressed.
In fact, this is also a normal phenomenon. After all, exams are different from being an official. Many top scorers have no reputation. However, people who do not do well in the exam are well-known and become famous officials of a generation.
In this way, it is inevitable that there is a bit unhappy between Zhou Mengchen and Li Chunfang.
If Zhang Juzheng came to see him off, Zhou Mengchen would not find it strange at all. But Li Chunfang would be very strange.
The two of them said implicitly, and Li Chunfang got to the point and said, "The teacher was going to come today. It was just that there were too many things on hand and he couldn't walk fast at all, so he asked me to see you."
Zhou Mengchen must have understood. He said, "The Chief Aunt took his time to take care of his busy schedule, what instructions do you have?"
Li Chunfang said: "There is nothing else, just asking questions. Are you interested? If you are interested, this matter is called to let you do it by the way in Nanjing. If you are not interested, he will select candidates to do it specifically."
Zhou Mengchen said, "What's the matter?"
Li Chunfang started a stroke and said, "Do you know that there is one person in the Yan Party who has not dealt with?"
Zhou Mengchen thought silently and said, "Yan Maoqing?"
Li Chunfang said: "People outside said that he gave the teacher a huge bribe to be considered as a child. I clearly said that he really wanted to spend money to save his life, but the teacher did not accept it at all. How could the teacher be the same as Yan Song? However, he really had the teacher's plan to keep him."
Zhou Mengchen believed that Xu Jie's food was much better than Yan Song. However, he did not believe that Xu Jie would not take any money. He did not talk about this matter with Li Chunfang at this moment and asked, "I don't know what the Prime Minister has to do?"
Li Chunfang said: "Salt Administration has always been a chronic disease, and it is very involved, so it is not easy to make a big move. Now there is an opportunity to do the Yan Maoqing case and the cleanup of the Salt Administration. This is not something that a smart and capable person is familiar with economic affairs. So, the teacher thought of Brother Zhou, is Brother Zhou interested?"
When Zhou Mengchen heard this, he was a little moved, while secretly calling Xu Jie a cunning man.
Zhou Mengchen admired Xu Jie's opportunity to seize the salt administration.
Why is salt administration difficult?
Are you not sure about the accounts, do you not understand the route of transporting salt, or are there any difficult problems in salt production? Neither is. The biggest problem is the sharing of wealth of the great officials and the powerful in the salt administration. It can be said that if you don’t understand this matter, it will be impossible to deal with the salt administration.
Once the salt administration is in charge, I will inevitably offend countless people, and even offend the palace.
But now it is different. Jiajing Yan Order pursued the Yan Party relentlessly, and almost the entire court has changed. In this situation, Xu Jie took advantage of the power of Jiajing to equate the interest groups behind the Salt Administration with the Yan Party and attacked them together.
The political group behind the Salt Administration was just impossible to overturn the verdict for the Stern Party, and could only avoid its edge. It had to expose some interests.
In this way, Xu Jie could make the salt tax more money and not offend all forces. It was a re-establishment of the balance of salt administration. This was a good opportunity.
The same thing, if you do it at different times, some will get half the effort with twice the effort with half the effort. This is the wonderful time and the exquisiteness of Xu Jie's skills.
