Chapter 338 It turned out to be him
In the front hall of Xu Mansion, everyone sat down separately. Xu Jie naturally sat in the main seat. Yang Jisheng sat on the carved rosewood chair on Xu Jie's left hand, and the handsome guy with balsam sat on it. On the carved rosewood chair on Xu Jie's right hand, Zhu Ping'an sat next to the handsome man applying balsam, while Wang Shizhen and Zhang Siwei sat on the left behind Yang Jisheng.
"There is no need to be formal here. I am also from your age, and I paid homage to Master Xia just like you." Xu Jie was very kind, without any airs at all, sitting on the main seat and talking The three of Zhu Ping'an chatted, and the distance suddenly became closer.
Xu Jie took the initiative in most of the conversations. He asked the three of them their hometown and address, how they were used to living in the capital, and whether they had any difficulties in life and studies. He also encouraged the three of them to avoid arrogance and impetuosity and prepare well. The palace examination is completely like being an elder in the family.
In the eyes of Wang Shizhen and Zhang Siwei, Xu Jie was Corporal Zhejie, which made them grateful, and their sense of Xu Jie rose to a very high level.
Zhu Ping'an also had the same grateful expression on his face as Wang Shizhen and Zhang Siwei, as if he wanted to die for Xu Jie, but his heart was relatively calm. He had read Mr. Mingyue's masterpiece "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" in modern times. For Xu Jie, the principal who once served as the Imperial College's minister of wine, knows something about it. Put down your arrogance, Corporal Zhejie, chatting with these new military personnel is just similar to the mentality of Principal Jiang who used to be the Whampoa Military Academy. The purpose is not just to encourage them to study hard. Who knows whether there will be a few first- and second-grade students in the future. A very important goal is to win over the team.
Of course, Mr. Mingyue was not Xu Jie's roundworm. Zhu Pingan only used Mr. Mingyue's words as a reference.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing.
What kind of person is Xu Jie, what kind of person is Yan Song, what kind of person is Emperor Jiajing, what kind of Ming Dynasty is this era, etc. Zhu Pingan still has to use his own eyes, Use your own thoughts to slowly observe this great Ming.
Zhu Pingan's innate simplicity and mediocre appearance gave Zhu Pingan a natural disguise. In the eyes of Xu Jie and others, Zhu Pingan, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen were the same as those before him. There was not much difference among the Xinke Gongshi who came to pay homage. They were all very grateful to Corporal Xu Jie Zhejie's attitude.
"We said goodbye at the inn that day. I didn't expect to meet Brother Zhu at the teacher's place today, and I didn't expect that my friend at the inn would be Huiyuan Lang today." Yang Jisheng smiled after Xu Jie, Zhu Ping'an and others had finished greeting. When talking to Zhu Pingan, his voice was as rich and hoarse as before.
"Brother Yang was joking." Zhu Pingan smiled sheepishly.
Yang Jisheng's words attracted everyone's attention, including the handsome guy sitting on the chair at the bottom right of Xu Jie. When he first entered the door, Zhu Ping'an and the others did not attract his attention. Today he is here with his teacher Xu Jie I have seen too many new tributes like Zhu Pingan and others who came to pay homage to the teacher. None of these people gave him a very outstanding impression, but when he heard Yang Jisheng mention the word Huiyuan, his eyes revealed an intimidating light.
"Oh, do you know Brother Nian?" The handsome guy looked at Yang Jisheng and asked casually.
Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen were also a little curious about this. They had never heard Zhu Pingan talk about Yang Jisheng before.
"Oh, I first came to the capital a few days ago and met Brother Zhu at the inn." Yang Jisheng said lightly.
"Thank you so much, Brother Yang, otherwise I might have to sleep in the wilderness again." Zhu Pingan stood up from his chair and thanked Yang Jisheng again. Really, the post station went up and down that day. If it weren't for Yang Jisheng, I would have had to sleep in the wilderness. It was really not easy to find an inn at that time.
"It's just a little effort. Brother Zhu, there's no need to be polite." Yang Jisheng didn't take what happened that day to heart.
"Oh, this is my fault. Zhongfang and Ping An know each other. I'm afraid you don't know each other yet. Come, let me introduce to you. This is Yang Jisheng, a member of the driving department of the Ministry of War. His cousin is Zhong. Fang." Xu Jie smiled mockingly, then pointed at Yang Jisheng and introduced him to Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen.
"Zhang Siwei (Wang Shizhen) has met Mr. Yang." Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen stood up from their chairs and bowed their hands to Yang Jisheng.
"I've heard about Master Yang for a long time. On that day, Master Yang went to court to impeach Qiu Luan. We all regard Master Yang as our role model." Zhang Siwei continued, admiring Yang Jisheng highly.
"The same goes for Shizhen." Wang Shizhen admired Yang Jisheng even more.
"No, I'm just fulfilling my duty as a minister." Yang Jisheng shook his head slightly, and then said, "Don't call me adults, I am older than you, you and Brother Zhu Just call me Brother Yang.”
“Thank you, Brother Yang.”
Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen really admired Yang Jisheng. On that day, Yang Jisheng was demoted to Di Daodian Shi because of Shangshu’s impeachment of Qiu Luan and Kaima City. People admired Yang Jisheng's outspoken advice. At this moment, when Yang Jisheng asked them to call him eldest brother, they naturally would not refuse.
After Xu Jie introduced Yang Jisheng, he pointed to the handsome guy on his lower right and introduced to Zhu Ping'an, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen: "This is Zhang Juzheng, editor of the Hanlin Academy, his cousin is Uncle, and he is a Jinshi in the same class as Zhongfang. One session earlier than yours."
Zhang Juzheng? !
When Zhu Ping'an heard the three words Zhang Juzheng, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. Damn, this handsome guy with balsamic balm, this guy who almost ordered a curry for the gay guy, turned out to be Zhang Juzheng!! !
If this awesome man knew that he was almost classified as a soap enthusiast, his Ming career would probably be in trouble.
Zhang Siwei, Wang Shizhen and Zhu Ping'an were different. When they heard Xu Jie introduce Zhang Juzheng, they didn't feel much. It was almost the same as when we heard the instructor introduce a certain senior brother. Oh, senior brother, that’s it.
Yang Jisheng dared to speak out and remonstrate with General Qiu Luan, who was at the height of his power at that time and had many troops. This kind of courage made them like seniors to Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen.
Zhang Juzheng, compared to Yang Jisheng, is not well-known and is not a man of great influence. For them, Zhang Juzheng’s current title of editor of the Hanlin Academy is attractive. The Hanlin Academy is a place where talents are cultivated and promoted. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a custom that non-Jinshi were not allowed to enter the Hanlin and non-Hanlin were not allowed to join the cabinet. However, if Having said that, there are many people in the Hanlin Academy, and not everyone can get ahead.
Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen did not know the history like Zhu Ping'an did, so they were more than respectful to Zhang Juzheng, whom Xu Jie introduced, but no longer worshiped him.
"I have met Mr. Zhang."
So, after the two introduced themselves on the Xujie, they stood up from their chairs and bowed their hands to Zhang Juzheng.
"I have met Mr. Zhang."
Zhu Ping'an was half a beat late. After Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen greeted Zhang Juzheng, he realized and stood up to greet Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng could clearly see the difference in attitude between Zhang Siwei, Wang Shizhen and Zhu Ping'an, who was distracted for half a minute, when they greeted him and when they greeted Yang Jisheng. The reason can also be guessed.
But they are just superficial people!
Zhang Juzheng was very deep in the city and thought about it in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He stood up from the chair with a slight smile and said with a smile, "You're welcome, just call me uncle." ( End of chapter)
