Scumbag's love robbery

Chapter 15

Time dumped a hope

Here it comes, here it comes, it's time to come!There was a feeling in Shi Qing's heart that the stone had finally hit the ground.

When King An Ruo came forward to protect their mother and child, he was probably more interested in the fact that Chai Daru's status as an orphan was profitable, besides for the sake of relatives?

After I stayed in Jiayuju with peace of mind, tried my best to like Yuan Kai, and showed that I was in love with Yuan Kai, did the Shizi finally trust him?

Shi Qing half-closed his eyes, and pretended to ask casually: "Write a letter to my grandfather's protégé? To whom?"

Yuan Kai said: "Zou Fanchen, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, Mr. Zizhuo from Mizhou."

For this Mr. Zizhuo from Mizhou, Shi Qingdao heard his mother mention it many times when he recalled the tragic disaster of destroying his family.

This Mr. Zizhuo from Mizhou, surnamed Zou, named Fanchen, Zizhuo is his name, he is the most proud disciple of Chai Daru, he is knowledgeable, dignified and upright.

Chai Zhuoshi is Mr. Chai Lao's second daughter-in-law.When the news of her giving birth in Jinchuan's hometown reached Fengjing City in the capital, Zou Fanchen happened to return to Beijing to report on his work, and went to visit the teacher's apartment. Hearing that the teacher had a happy grandson, he promised to receive it in the future because he did not bring a gift. This child is a child.

Shi rolled his eyes: "What letter to write to him? I don't know him."

Back in his yard, Yuan Kai took off his outer clothes and asked, "Didn't Fifth Aunt tell you about Mr. Zizhuo?"

"Can not remember."

"I heard from my father that Mr. Zizhuo once said that he wanted to take you in as a disciple. I think it's been too long, and Fifth Aunt may have forgotten."

"Oh, you're talking about that person, but I heard from my mother." Shi Qing stood beside him to help Yuan Kai undress, with a dazed look in his mouth, he snorted coldly: "That happened when my grandfather was alive, and now people go out for tea." Liang, my mother and son have been taking refuge in the palace for 15 years. Which Caimen disciple have you seen come to visit our orphans and widowed mother? If Zou Fanchen really wants to take me in as a disciple, he can take me in when I am enlightened at the age of six or seven. Now ten years have passed, and there is not even a shadow of him! Shizi asked me to write a letter, did he tell me to beg him to accept me as an apprentice?"

As he said that, Shi Qing threw Yuan Kai's clothes into the arms of the boy next to him, and said, "Don't write!"

The cold sneer towards the chaimen disciples was Shi Qing's true emotion.Shi Qing didn't feel much about the pain of exterminating his family back then, after all, he was still young at that time.But Shi Qing has a deep understanding of the warmth and coldness of human relationships.

Recalling the past, Shi Qing always felt that it was God's will in the dark that he and his mother were able to avoid that tragedy.

At that time, Shi Qing was just over two years old, and Mrs. Zhuo, Chai Zhuo's fourth cousin, could not leave the palace without permission because she was the concubine of King Anruo (the range of activities of the people in the whole palace was only as big as that of Qizhou. a place) and wrote to ask Chai Zhuoshi to take Shi Qing to Prince Anruo's residence for a short period of time.

When Chai Zhuo took his youngest son to Prince Anruo's mansion, Emperor Jingning was seriously ill, but he wanted to abolish the heir and set up another son, his beloved second son.

As the servant of the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Priest's Jijiu, Mr. Chai couldn't understand Emperor Jingning's wanton corruption of etiquette and the ancestral succession system.

Probably during the direct remonstrance, under the agitation of emotions, Mr. Chai and other ministers spoke quickly, mentioned the past, and poked at Emperor Jingning's "also the second son" and "the throne was not orthodox". Furious, he dragged out all the courtiers who offended Yan Zhijian for the crime of disrespect.

Inspired by the heroic spirit of Chai Daru, the ministers adhered to the sacred mission of "fight to the death with martial arts, and remonstrate with the death of civil servants", and tried their best to admonish one after another, striving to leave a name in history.

During the period, many people poked at Emperor Jingning Nilin many times, making the already seriously ill Emperor Jingning dying of anger, thinking that it was Mr. Chai who led the way. Cut, to kill chickens to scare monkeys.

Along with this imperial decree to exterminate the family, there were two imperial decrees to abolish the establishment, and one imperial decree was to abolish the eldest son's heirloom on the grounds of his stubborn temper, and changed his title to King Zhao, ordering him to go to the throne immediately.Another imperial decree made the second son the crown prince and entered the East Palace.

Emperor Jingning has spoken, and whoever dares to speak too much, the Chai family is an example.

It has to be said that for the same thing, Emperor Jingning is much more powerful and ruthless than Emperor Shenguang.

The ministers bluntly remonstrated in order to win a loyal and clear name, but if they want to involve their family members in disasters, then they have to think carefully.This time, the ministers all shut up.

So Emperor Jingning dragged his sick body to the Taimiao to offer sacrifices to his ancestors, and reported to the prince about his abolition.

Emperor Jingning was seriously ill and extremely weak. After such a toss, the priest returned and died the next day.

In view of the fact that the former prince had just left Beijing for enfeoffment, in order to prevent any changes, the power of the new prince did not wait to be released, and he supported the new prince to succeed to the throne directly.

When Emperor Jingning passed away, the imperial decree to kill the Chai family was still on the way. At that time, a minister spoke to the new emperor who was in a hurry to succeed to the throne, requesting to recover Jingning's last decree quickly and pardon Chai Daru's family.

After all, Chai Daru was just admonishing Yan Yan, not really committing any unforgivable crime. Now that the government has changed, there is no need to kill chickens and monkeys.

However, in order to show filial piety, the new emperor did not speak of his father's faults. If the late emperor's decrees could be tampered with and invalidated at will, where would the late emperor's face be?Therefore, whether the new Emperor Leng was resolute in his refusal to recover the last emperor's last decree, or let that last decree be sent to Jinchuan, and the whole family of the Chai family was copied and beheaded.

Therefore, the third master Chu Yinghao said that the whole family of the Chai family was copied and beheaded by the two emperors Jingning and Lezhang. This is true.

Since they copied and beheaded the whole family, of course the imperial army was going to arrest Chai's mother and son and chop them up.Don't want Prince An Ruo to refuse to hand over people, the forbidden army dare not break into the palace to arrest him, so they quickly report back to Emperor Le Zhang.

Emperor Yuezhang thought that he had already killed most of the Chai family anyway, and this will be considered to have been carried out, so there was no need to exterminate the Chai family.

Besides, King An Ruo is the emperor's uncle, with a high seniority, a good name, and holds the secret decree of the divine light, so it is really not easy for him to confront this emperor's uncle.

Three, he was fighting with the ex-Prince King Zhao who had returned after hearing the news to a critical juncture, and he didn't have the energy to start a war with King An Ruo at the same time.

So Le Zhang had no choice but to agree to this favor, and let the forbidden army evacuate and Qizhou, without taking people.

Emperor Lezhang did not hold grudges against those ministers who prevented the former emperor from changing his reserve. Although he did not appease those ministers who remonstrated with Zhaoxue on the surface, secretly he still took care of their descendants.The care for Chai Daru is to give priority to recruiting and promoting the disciples of the Chai family.

Therefore, after the death of Mr. Chai Lao, his reputation in Confucianism has risen to a higher level. He has taught his disciples, and they have become officials one after another, and they are quite powerful in the court.

Ordinarily, it is not a secret that Chai's mother and son took refuge in Prince Anruo's Mansion, but in the past 15 years, none of Chai's children came to visit Chai's orphan, not even a letter of advice.Zou Fanchen, like all Chaimen disciples, has never contacted Chai's mother and son.

On the one hand, in order to compensate Chai Daru, Emperor Yuezhang reused Chaimen's disciples; on the other hand, Chaimen's disciples ignored Chai's orphans, and there were two worlds of cold and warm. No wonder Shi Qing sneered at Zou Fanchen and refused to write a letter to ask for help.

Seeing that Shi Qing had been touched and was upset, Yuan Kai took off half of his jacket, hugged Shi Qing in his arms distressedly, patted his back and said in relief: "Don't be angry, we're just using this as an excuse. , wrote a letter to lure that surnamed Zou to the palace. When he comes, it's over, it doesn't matter whether he is a teacher or not."

Shi Qing understood, the son asked him to write a letter, just wanting to lure Zou Fanchen to the palace, and asked a little listlessly: "For so many years, Mr. Zou...Zizhuo has ignored our mother and son, now I am writing a letter." Go, I'm afraid he won't even talk to me."

"In another month, it will be your birthday. What my father wants you to write is to ask Zou to come and accept you on your birthday."

Almost full?During this period of time, Shi Qing's heart was pressed against a boulder, and he completely forgot about his birthday.He sneered in his heart, and said with a flattering smile on his face: "It's really embarrassing for the son, you still remember my birthday."

"No, I told my father that I would celebrate your birthday, and then my father remembered that he asked you to write a letter to Zou."

That's right, he is a child who took refuge in the palace, how could the Shizi remember his birthday?In the entire palace, only Yuan Kai and Mrs. Zhuo remembered his birthday.

Shi Qing can't remember it anymore. I don't know when it started. Yuan Kai would always give him some exquisite gadgets on his birthday, and tell him: Xiao Qing, today is your birthday. happy.

Recalling these past events, Shi Qing was always moved. In this indifferent and snobbish palace, it was Yuan Kai who brought him rare warmth.

Shi Qing couldn't help but put her arms around Yuan Kai, and whispered in his ear with some emotion: "Thank you for remembering that day every year."

"Hey, why are you being polite, you celebrate my birthday every year." Yuan Kai said, when he let go, he took off his shirt, picked up a fan to fan the wind, and asked the boy to fetch a basin of cold water to wipe off his sweat. Wear a cool shirt at home again.

Yuan Kai is a young son, the palace will celebrate his birthday every year, Shi Qing doesn't need to memorize it, he will know it naturally, and he doesn't need to bother preparing gifts, when the time comes, he will follow other people in the mansion to say auspicious words to Yuan Kai, even if It's over.Compared with Yuan Kai celebrating his birthday, it was extremely perfunctory.

Not long after, the boy fetched water, Yuan Kai simply took off his coat, and asked the boy to wipe his body with a towel.

Shi Qing sat and watched, pondered: "I am a junior who has never met, I am afraid that I will not have so much face to write to Mr. Zizhuo to invite him."

"Father said, you can't invite him because of your face. But he will definitely come because of Mr. Chai's face."

"My mother and I have lived in the palace for more than ten years, and Mr. Zizhuo never asked. I think, I'm afraid grandpa's face won't help." Shi Qing lowered his head slightly, playing with his fan, and said sullenly.

"No! No!" Yuan Kai turned around and asked the boy to wipe his back, and said, "I think Fifth Aunt has something to tell you. Although my grandfather Mr. Chai has two sons, they are both worthless." Zou Fanchen is smart, studious, practical and diligent, and he is the best among his disciples. Mister Chai pities him from a poor background and helps him in everything. He treats him as his nephew and nephew in his younger generation. It's kindness."

In fact, Shi Ting heard from his mother: Mr. Chai has only two sons. Not a scholar.

This Zou Fanchen is very rigorous in his studies, and he has absorbed the essence of Mr. Chai's Confucianism. When Mr. Chai was still alive, he was recognized as the successor of Chai's Confucianism. Given time, he will become a great contemporary Confucianist.

Originally, Mr. Chai had been restraining his two sons to study, which made the father and son very painful. Since Zou Fanchen came out, the father and son have been liberated.

Yuan Kai continued: "If it is said that the disciples of Chaimen are all cold-blooded people who take tea, Zou Fanchen alone can't. Many people know how much Mr. Chai took care of him back then. Even the marriage was done by Mr. Chai. He handled it all by himself. For the past ten years or so, he ignored you, which is barely reasonable. After all, we have no contact with each other. If you take the initiative to write a letter, ask him to come and accept you. If he doesn't come, you must He will be criticized. Then his reputation will be ruined, and he will not be able to become the leader of Confucianism after Mr. Chai Lao."

After talking so much, Yuan Kai paused, put on clean underwear, and concluded: "Father has analyzed it for me. It is his own promise to accept you as an apprentice. Coupled with Mr. Chai's relationship, if he Cherish your own reputation, and want to become a great Confucian in the world, so you have to come."

Since Shi Qing entered the palace when he was two years old, he never went out. He studied behind closed doors, and was very closed to news outside the palace. He liked to listen to the chatter of the elders during festivals, so as to learn some outside news.

From Yuan Kai's words, Shi Qing immediately understood Zou Fanchen's identity: Although his official position is low, he is a scholar in the Ministry of Rites, but he has a high status among scholars, and he has a tendency to be a leader of scholars. It is possible to become another great Confucian in the world after Chai Daru.

From Zou Fanchen's identity, Shi Qing can deduce that: the son of the prince lured Zou Fanchen to Anruo Palace not only to let Zou Fanchen accept him as an apprentice, but more importantly, the palace wanted to win over Zou Fanchen.

In the process of "getting back" the throne, someone from the palace needs someone to come forward to cheer for them and boost their momentum.The palace needs to get the support of the scholars, and recognize that Prince An Ruo is the orthodox heir to the throne, and occupy a high point in public opinion and morality.

Zou Fanchen was selected by Anruo Palace, and wanted him to be the mouthpiece for the palace.

There are three ways for Zou Fanchen to come to the palace: one is to persuade him to support the palace's treason with benefits; the other is to force him into the chariot of the palace; As long as you visit Prince An Ruo's Mansion, you will convey a gesture to the outside world.

Shi Qing couldn't help thinking: Zou Fanchen's presence might be his chance to leave the palace.

After worshiping a teacher, should I study with the teacher?The teacher is an official in Fengjing City, should he follow to Fengjing City?Then wouldn't he be able to leave Prince An Ruo's mansion in a fair and honest manner?

After enduring in the palace for so long, I suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.With hope, Shi Qing's heart suddenly became eager, wishing that Zou Fanchen could show up and take him away immediately, and said positively: "Okay, I'll write it right away."

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Yuan Kai put on the cool shirt at home under the service of the servant, while tying the clothes himself, he went to the study at the same time, sat beside him, and wrote letters while reading.
