Chapter 26 The eldest grandson has a daughter growing up
Chapter 26: The eldest grandson has a daughter first growing up
Zheng Yanqing and Ma Sanbao walked through the corridor and walked into a corridor.
This is the back garden of Changsun's family. In early spring, the crabapple flowers in the garden are in bud. The bright sunshine shines in the garden, illuminating the rippling waves of the pond, which is extremely moving. In the pavilion, a young man is holding a book in his hand and shaking his head to recite. In the yard, occasionally the laughter of a girl like a silver bell came, which adds a bit of vitality to the spring scenery of the garden.
"Brother, brother!"
Zheng Yanqing heard a tender cry, so he followed the sound.
But I saw a little girl riding on the branches of a tall cherry tree, waving excitedly to the boy in the pavilion.
There was a bright red branch on her hand, like a ripe cherry.
Riding at the bookseller, the little girl shouted excitedly, "Brother, look, the cherries are ripe, the cherries are ripe!"
The boy in the pavilion raised his head and looked at the situation and his face suddenly became very ugly.
"Guanyin Bi, come down quickly, it's dangerous!"
After saying that, he ran out of the pavilion and let the little girl sit firmly while walking.
But the little girl seemed to have not heard it, and still waved her arms excitedly. This might be the first time in her life that she had climbed such a tall tree. However, when the boy ran towards him, the little girl seemed a little nervous. She held the cherry in one hand and slowly retreated.
Crunch!
The tree branches suddenly trembled and made a light breaking sound.
Seeing that the situation was a little bad, the boy didn't care about his appearance anymore. He spread his legs and ran wildly towards the cherry tree. But just as he was walking around the pond and almost under the tree, he heard the little girl screaming, and the tree branches broke, and the little girl was crying. The boy grew up in horror. Before he could scream, a figure flashed, hugged the little girl and fell to the ground, and rolled...
"Guanyin maid, Guanyin maid!"
The boy shouted the girl's name loudly, and the maid who was playing in the garden also rushed here.
On the tender green grass, Zheng Yanqing helped the little girl up, "Girl, are you okay?"
The little girl widened her black eyes and suddenly burst into tears. She was so scared that she forgot to cry. When she saw Zheng Yanqing at this time, she seemed to feel a trace of safety and immediately cried out.
"Hey, it's you?"
The boy ran over and was stunned when he saw Zheng Yanqing.
Of course he recognized Zheng Yanqing, but at this time he focused more on the little girl. He didn't care about meeting Yanqing, so he hurried over and hugged the little girl, looked left and right, and saw that the little girl was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Holding the little girl, the young man repeatedly comforted him: "Be good at Guanyin maid, Guanyin maid will not cry!"
This little girl had nothing to do. After crying twice, she hurried in the boy's arms and looked at Zheng Yanqing curiously.
Yan Qing's image at this time was awkward, wearing a white robe, and was already dirty.
The little girl suddenly laughed out loud, but her delicate face with pear blossoms showed a bit of charm because of this smile.
"Little brother, eat cherries!"
She still held the cherry in her hand and handed it to Zheng Yanqing.
Yan Qing was stunned, then smiled and took the cherry from the little girl's hand. The little girl's smile became even brighter.
The boy stood up and turned his head to look at Zheng Yanqing.
"Zheng Yanqing, what are you doing in my house?"
"Your home?"
"Oh, my name is Changsun Wuji. This is my sister Wugui... Thank you for helping me just now, but my sister is not injured."
Zheng Yanqing's pupils couldn't help but shrink!
Is he Changsun Wuji?
Zheng Yanqing has long admired the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, which is famous in history.
Although he knew in his heart that sooner or later he would meet Changsun Wuji.
But I didn't expect that it would meet Changsun Wuji and his brothers in such a way.
Changsun Wuji is slightly older than Zheng Yanqing. However, he is slightly lower than Zheng Yanqing's height. He is a little fat in his baby and has a round face. When he smiles, his eyes will narrow into a line, which looks harmless to people.
But don't underestimate this person!
This person, in the future, created the famous Zhenguan era with Lord Li Er.
"So it's Brother Changsun."
Zheng Yanqing bowed and said, "I am here to visit me at the invitation of the general... Are you Wugui? You weren't scared just now!"
Changsun Wugui's little face, which was as white as porcelain and as pink as peach blossoms, showed a hint of redness.
She hugged beside Changsun Wuji, nodded slightly, nodded, but said no more.
Changsun Wuji was a little surprised: His father invited him over? What else is there?
Just as he was thinking, Zheng Yanqing bowed and said, "Brother, I still have something to do, so I won't disturb you anymore. Guanyin maid, be more obedient in the future and don't climb trees anymore. Do you hear that? If something goes wrong, your parents will be sad about it."
Changsun Wugui agreed obediently.
Zheng Yanqing and Ma Sanbao are gone!
At this time, Mrs. Gao and Changsun Sheng also received the news and hurried over.
Mrs. Gao hugged Changsun Wugui in her arms, "Guanyin maid, you don't have any hands."
Changsun Wugui shook his head, suddenly hugged Mrs. Gao's neck, and whispered in her ear: "Mom, I just saw the arrogant little brother!"
Mrs. Gao was stunned.
At this time, Changsun Wuji came up and told the story.
Only then did Mrs. Gao realize that the arrogant little brother in Changsun Wugui's mouth was Zheng Yanqing. He couldn't help but move, and a smile appeared on his face, "Guanyin maid, you can often see that little brother in the future, are you happy?"
"Really?"
Changsun Wugui widened his eyes, asked with some excitement and some confusion.
After looking at Changsun Sheng who was scolding the maid over there, Mrs. Gao lowered her voice and said, "Your father has decided to accept Zheng Yanqing as his disciple!"
Changsun Wuji was shocked: Will his father accept Zheng Yanqing as his disciple?
Changsun Sheng wanted to take Half Yuanjun as his disciple, and the news quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of Luoyang.
People are both puzzled and taken for granted by such news.
Changsun Sheng was an important official of the court and a prominent family; and Zheng Yanqing was born in the Zheng family in Xingyang, and was talented, and could be regarded as both civil and military. Therefore, it is reasonable for Zheng Yanqing to be the eldest son of Sun Sheng. Those who are interested can even realize that Zheng Yanqing's apprenticeship this time will give him a very bright stroke of his future.
At the same time, the song "Going to the Frontier" presented by Yan Qing to Changsun Sheng was also circulated.
If you think about it carefully, Changsun Sheng’s various achievements since he became an official is worthy of this poem “Going to the Frontier”.
Many ministers in the court who stayed in Luoyang secretly reminded their children: Don’t make trouble anymore, don’t learn from Maizizhong to provoke Zheng Yanqing. It’s not just because Zheng Yanqing is in the limelight now, but also because of Changsun Sheng. They may be able to ignore the decline of Zheng family in Xingyang, but they will never underestimate Changsun Sheng’s energy.
That is a real important official in the court!
"Yan Qing, do you want to be the leader of General Changsun?"
That night, Pei Xingyan did not attend the Luoyang Lantern Festival, but hurried to Zhuyuan and asked.
Team Ju, on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, has now fallen apart.
Xue Suo Yao Yi left Luoyang, and Dou Xiaowen was taken to Chang'an by Dou Wei, saying that Dou Xiaowen was sixteen years old next year and wanted to send him to Dou Kang to serve. This shows that Dou Xiaowen has officially entered the Dou family's sight and began to focus on training.
Eighth and fifth ones, it is said that Xue Wanche is about to return to Hedong...
Zheng Yanqing and others were soaking in the hot spring in the valley. When Pei Xingyan asked, he nodded.
"Yes, I will give the ceremony of apprenticeship ten days later, but before that, I will fast and calm down. I am afraid it will be difficult to meet with you brothers recently. By the way, Brother Pei, have you heard any news recently? Is Henan Yin going to take action?"
Zheng Yanqing thought that Changsun Sheng would never mention the matter of Henan Yin easily, and solemnly let him go to Luoyang less.
Pei Xingyan thought for a while, "It should be that there is no action.
But I heard from my father that His Majesty seemed to be repairing the Yongji Canal in Hebei, preparing to connect the Qinshui River. From Huixian to Linqing, why did Shun arrive in Zhuo County? The project is extremely large... Oh, I remembered it, and my father also said that I would be more at peace recently. I heard that Lord Yin Fang of Henan is preparing to rectify refugees in Luoyang, which should be the only things."
The number of refugees in Luoyang is increasing day by day, and it will be a matter of time before rectification is done.
So Zheng Yanqing didn't care much. I think Fang Yanqian's new official took office and took advantage of the opportunity to rectify refugees and clear the public security issues in Luoyang. There are more and more powerful people in Luoyang. As some important officials in the imperial court who had been stationed in Chang'an moved here, some powerful children were extremely rampant on the streets of Luoyang and gradually became a major poison.
But, does Fang Yanqian have such capital to compete with those powerful people?
When he was Sima in Xuzhou, he also carried out drastic rectification in all aspects, and the results were good. Then Xuzhou could not compare with Luoyang. Zheng Yanqing was not very optimistic about whether Fang Yanqian was as proud as he was in Xuzhou.
If you don't do it well, Fang Yanqian will be unlucky because of it...
What Zheng Yanqing cares about is the repair of Yongji Canal.
It is not that the Yongji Canal is not well repaired, but that with the current national strength of the Sui Dynasty, doing so seems to be a bit like fishing. Last year, Emperor Yang of Sui built the Tongji Canal, causing refugees in Henan and the land was barren; now he has also built the Yongji Canal in Hebei, but it is not well done, so it will cause serious consequences. Yang Guang's scholarly aura is fully revealed... How fast, good and easy to pursue everything, but no other aspects are considered. I heard that bandits began to appear in Hebei last year. If there is a large-scale construction, will the situation of refugees in Hebei be even more serious? This is a big problem!
Perhaps, the decline of the Sui Dynasty was the foreshadowing of the construction of the Grand Canal!
But in the face of all this, Zheng Yanqing didn't want to care about it and was unable to ask about it.
He talked to a group of little brothers for a while, then went out to bathe and changed his clothes, and returned to the bamboo garden.
Pei Xingyan and Xue Wanche were soaked all night, and their bones were a little crispy. So they didn't plan to go back to Luoyang, but stayed in Zhuyuan.
Anyway, there are enough houses in Zhuyuan, so staying here will not be too repulsive to the family.
Zheng Yanqing read the book for a while and called Ma Sanbao in front of him.
"Ma Sanbao, you are not from the Changsun family, are you?"
His seemingly unintentional question made Ma Sanbao feel shocked, and he raised his head in surprise and looked at Zheng Yanqing.
"Today in Pili Hall, I found that when you met Changsun Wuji, you did not perform the rituals of master and servant. Changsun Wuji didn't seem to care much. Even when talking to me, he didn't look at you... So, I think you should not be from Pili Hall. Ma Sanbao, please tell me where did you come from?"
