Chapter 443 Test
After Wang Xuan left, Shao Xun continued to grow vegetables, one kind for a month.
The news has slowly leaked out.
This kind of thing that benefits military people cannot be hidden at all. There are too many military people rushing to spread it.
Inspecting filial piety and incorruptibility and promoting talented people are nothing to do without them.
They can't get into Guozixue or Taixue either.
Court elections, recruitment of important ministers, etc. are so far away from them that they seem to be in another world.
Tell me how to become an official?
Now Mr. Chen says yes, if you can become officials, I will help you do it.
What are you waiting for if you don’t send Mr. Chen to the Tai Chi Hall?
However, the first person to be found was the famous "virgin scholar" Yu Gun.
There is no official figure, and no serious member of the gentry.
Yes, Yu Gun was a reclusive scholar. In theory, he had no interest in worldly affairs and had no interest in anyone, but he happened to be a member of the Yu clan.
He came to visit, and Shao Xun understood immediately. This is politics, and there must be room for it.
"Uncle Shubao has been living in seclusion since he returned from Linlushan and rarely interacts with people. Why did he come to visit?" Yu Wenjun, who was sewing the second purple robe, was a little surprised.
Shao Xun secretly thought, Yu Gen lived in seclusion, but his son did not live in seclusion, and even became an official.
Is there anyone in this world who can really transcend the world and cut off all family ties, friendships and love? Very few.
Yu Wenjun is already putting away his makeup.
Shao Xun's heart moved, and after brewing his emotions, he walked behind his wife and helped her draw her eyebrows.
Well, actually there is no need to think about it, Yu Wenjun is indeed one of his favorite women.
Mrs. Yin was waiting on the side, her thoughtful eyes met Shao Xun's, and then she hurriedly looked away.
What a sensitive and delicate mind!
Shao Xun was a little surprised. She was really a girl with a delicate mind. It seemed as if all her little thoughts could not escape her deer-like vigilance.
After the couple smiled and put away their makeup, Shao Xun took his wife's hand and went out with an extremely gentle look on his face.
Before leaving, he glanced at Ms. Yin with a half-smile.
Yin lowered her head and followed silently.
“Yu Gong is here, it’s really exciting.” Hearty laughter came: “Tea.”
“Uncle.” Yu Wenjun’s voice also came over.
"Uncle." Xiao Yu also stepped forward and bowed, and then went to get the tea set. Guanqiu went to help.
Yinshi and Xunshi went to serve snacks.
As concubines, theoretically speaking, the status of the four of them is actually higher than that of the two princesses in the mansion. They can even accompany Yu Wenjun to various gatherings and activities, which is between the official wives and the concubines.
But if there are relatively close guests coming over, they will not use maids, but will personally entertain them.
The relationship between them and their wives is actually an intimate relationship like sisters and master and servant.
Under the warm spring sun, the three of them were sitting under the tree, with the warm breeze blowing, which was a different feeling.
Yu Gun just scanned the courtyard.
There are not many flowers and plants, and they are not interesting enough. The only flowers and trees seem to have been transplanted, perhaps by Yu Wenjun.
In the courtyard there is an archery target, an equipment rack and a stone lion for strength training.
There are various weapons hanging on the equipment rack, each with traces of long-term use, which makes the image of Shao Xun in his heart more vivid: he is really a soldier who loves martial arts.
"Mr. Chen is a true warrior." Yu Gen retracted his gaze and said with unclear meaning.
“My family has been a soldier for generations, isn’t it a warrior?” Shao Xun said with a smile.
"Is it possible for a warrior to manage a country and benefit its people?" Yu Gun asked.
"To cut off the bandits and defeat the enemy, you must have soldiers." Shao Xun replied.
"Soldiers are a weapon of omen." Yu Gun added: "Zhang Fang recklessly kills, burns houses, plunders assets, and develops tombs. Everyone hates him. He is also unruly and forces the Lord to Ling. Your Majesty, you have a disobedient heart. This is Tai'a's fault. Would you rather not punish me? If you are brave enough to win, you will never look back even if you die a hundred times, so why doubt it?" Shao Xun replied.
The two of them asked and answered several questions.
Yu Wenjun was a little restless and subconsciously looked at her husband.
Shao Xun patted her hand to express comfort.
Yu Wenjun calmed down.
Yugun noticed their little movements and didn't say anything, just sighed.
Mr. Chen's attitude is obvious. He is on the side of the warriors and will not change his mind.
In fact, Yu Gun faced Wang Mi and Shi Le directly in Linlu Mountain, and even fought with Wang Sang and Liu Ling's men. He understood the importance of warriors better than other scholars.
Without the request of the clan, he really wouldn’t want to come to inquire about the situation.
Some people are really worried that Duke Chen will become like Gou Xi and Zhang Fang, and his relationship with the gentry will become tense.
But as far as Yu Gun knew, this was simply nonsense.
If Chen Gong is not a warrior, but he enters the court and intrigues with them, it is not much worse.
He, Gou Xi and Zhang Fang are not the same people, and their methods are too high.
Yin brought exquisite snacks and placed them on the table.
Yu Gun thanked him softly but did not take any of it, as if he had long been accustomed to simple meals.
Yin stood behind Yu Wenjun and kissed her quietly. Yu Wenjun was a little surprised, and immediately smiled and said: "Uncle, let's have a piece of persimmon cake. My husband made it before winter last year. He knew that I like to eat it, so he made more."
Yu Gen raised his eyebrows and glanced at his niece.
Shao Xun secretly praised Wenjun for his enlightenment and said with a smile: "I really love Wenjun so much that I want to give her everything good."
Yu Gun shook his head and laughed.
He is indeed a soldier! He speaks directly and without any tact.
Even if scholars loved their wives, concubines, and children, they rarely showed it in words. Isn't it embarrassing to coax a woman?
But——Mr. Chen’s words mean something.
So he tried a sentence: "Since we are so loving, we should have many children, and we cannot have such a huge family fortune without having no heirs."
Shao Xun understood, took his wife's hand, He said in a self-deprecating tone: "From birth to death, lying across the place where corpses are erected, the future will be for their mother and son."
Yu Wenjun was a little shy. He didn't have a son or a half, so he said "mother and son"... …
Yugun’s eyes narrowed after hearing this, and then he nodded with a smile.
If Chen Gong did not waver and let Wenjun's niece's children inherit the inheritance, then some things would not be incomprehensible.
Compared with the indescribable wealth, everything else is just a cloud. Even the nobles of Yingchuan and Runan can more or less benefit from it.
However, Chen Gong’s methods are also amazing.
Has he been prepared for this a long time ago? He throws out scented bait that you can't help but swallow, and in the end you can only follow him.
Wenjun's niece is only seventeen years old, which is so far behind her husband.
But maybe it’s not a bad thing. Mr. Chen is already shrewd enough. He may not like his wife to be shrewd. That would be too tiring. Yu Gun, who has been married to two shrewd wives, Xun’s and Le’s, felt a little emotional. .
"I will take back what I said today exactly." Yu Gun picked up a piece of persimmon, ate it slowly, and said, "Mr. Chen is a man who honors his word, so he has no worries."
Speaking of this, Yu Gun said again: "After Jijun was occupied by Shile, some people ran south from Linlu Mountain. They were all loyal people who had been fighting with the thieves for many years. If Chen Gong doesn't dislike it, he might as well accept it as his The government soldiers will give them a way out, which will solve my worries.”
The two then changed the subject and chatted about old events in Ji County.
It's strange to say that such an important matter just ended in a few words. They talked about irrelevant things they had seen in Ji County, but they kept talking until the sun turned to the west.
Yu Wenjun was keeping company.
During the whole process, most of her eyes fell on Shao Xun.
Shao Xun sometimes glanced back, their eyes facing each other, as if there was a lot of affection and affection.
Yu Gun looked at it and nodded secretly, trusting Shao Xun's promise a little more.
Love for your wife cannot be faked. Lao Yu is also a man who has experienced two wives. How can he not know whether it is true or false?
Mr. Chen is a martial artist, he likes to be straightforward, and he should not be prone to false feelings.
After it became completely dark, Shao Xun held a banquet in his mansion to entertain Yu Gun and his entourage.
Yu Gun was not polite either. He talked and laughed with Yan Yan during the dinner, and stayed one night in Shao Mansion before leaving the next day.
After sending Yu Gun away, Shao Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew very well who Yu Gun represented.
As long as those people behind him endure this time and don't make a fuss, Yuzhou will not be able to overthrow the sky.
If you compromise this time, you will be even more willing to compromise next time. After all, there is a precedent - making exceptions is the hardest thing.
Hey, the tactic of boiling the frog in warm water can be implemented slowly.
The process will definitely not be smooth sailing, and there will definitely be repetitions, but as long as you start implementing it, the results will slowly appear.
The road is tortuous, but the future is bright and very good.
Just——What’s going on with Mr. Wang’s wall lamp? It's been a month and there's still no explanation?
Shao Xun secretly guessed that they were observing the attitude of the nobles in Yu and Yan states? If these local snakes accept it, they will have no motivation to stop it? It's very possible.
Damn, they’re all a bunch of cunning guys. But just because of their cunning, they can't achieve great things.
Shao Xun smiled proudly, took his little wife's hand and went home.
In fact, he is very satisfied with his wife.
Between her mother's family and her husband, the silly Wenjun leaned overwhelmingly towards her husband, and her whole heart was devoted to him.
This made him feel heavy pressure.
After marrying a wife, I feel like home.
Yu Wenjun still uses her tight, tender and warm body to give his children and grandchildren a home every day.
Next, I will spend time with my wife at home and design the official system of the soldiers.
After there was news from the court, the soldiers were gathered together, practiced for a while, and announced the good news in public.
Prestige is slowly rising like this.
The power of a strong man lies in gathering the crowd.
Shao Xun has always believed that this is the real "supreme art of war", which is upright, endless, and overpowering all evil spirits. It is much better than conspiracy, conspiracy, and sowing trouble.
Not long after this meeting, in mid-March, the so-called "debate" in the court gradually subsided.
There are some things that they cannot stop, and they are not even as strong as the Yu Yan clan can resist.
This matter has both advantages and disadvantages. Since Shao Xun insists on going his own way regardless of his reputation, let him go. It depends on whether the local nobles will support you when you go to other places in the future.
