The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 1595
[Chapter 1595 Passionate Son (3)]
The first thousand two hundred and seventy-two chapters passionate son (3)
Yu Congpei came for Pang Jinglun. This is the prince’s teacher. If he can worship in his name, he will be the junior brother of several princes. When I go to the capital, I can take this opportunity to catch up with the prince. This will be of great benefit to his future.
Cao Fengyu is also a wise man who knows Yu Congpei’s purpose. He might try to curry favor with the governor, and naturally he would try his best to help.
In the evening, a servant came to invite Yu Congpei: “Master Yu, Mr. Pang has come back from outside, our master invites you over.”
Yu Congpei said, “Wait for a moment.” When I went to see Mr. Pang, it was natural that I had to tidy up my appearance. If the first impression is not good, then the matter of apprenticeship will definitely be yellow.
Hearing that Cao Fengyu brought people over, Pang Jinglun frowned and said, “Please come in!”
Cao Fengyu brought Yu Congpei in and introduced Pang Jinglun with a smile.
If Brother Xuan hadn’t insisted on staying here, he wouldn’t have to deal with a hypocrite like Cao Fengyu. It made his friend still very puzzled, ahem, it was really hard to say.
I was upset, but there was no sign of it on my face.
Yu Congpei bowed respectfully, and then said polite words to Pang Jinglun with respect.
Pang Jinglun smiled and said, “Young Master Yu is very polite.”
Hearing that Yu Congpei was here to ask the teacher, Pang Jinglun smiled and said, “I haven’t touched a book for more than 20 years, and I don’t care about the affairs of the court. If you let me teach you, you will be wrong.” Obviously, Yu Congpei wanted to enter the imperial examinations.
Yu Congpei obviously didn’t believe it, and his attitude became more and more sincere. It is a pity that Pang Jinglun is a sentence from beginning to end, and he is ignorant of learning and does not dare to mislead his children.
Although Pang Jinglun is sophisticated, he is not willing to deal with Cong Pei and Cao Fengyu. At the moment, they sent the two away on the grounds that they needed a rest after running around for a day.
Brother Xuan liked to be with such young talents as Yu Congpei, and condescendingly sent him out.
Yu Congpei didn’t know Brother Xuan’s identity at this time, but he was very polite to him.
Cao Fengyu wanted to hold a banquet to entertain Yu Congpei. Seeing that the two were talking happily, he invited Brother Xuan to have a drink.
Brother Xuan did not hesitate at all, so he went down. It’s a pity that he was so poor in drinking that he fell drunk without two drinks.
Asan helped him go back to rest.
Yu Congpei’s drinking capacity is quite good, and people are still sober after the banquet. Returning to the place where he lived, he washed his face and asked, “Has Tian Shan come back?”
“Not yet, probably soon.”
Tian Shan just came back after taking a bath, and told Yu Congpei what he had inquired about: “Master Yu, the surname of Master Yu is Yu Mingda, the son of the chief priest of the Ministry of Rites. Master, there are four sons and four daughters in the Yu family. Third. I heard from the servants of the Cao family that Yu Da is very talented in reading, and he has studied in Baitan Academy for two years.
Suspicion flashed on Yu Congpei’s face: “Is the information you inquired accurate?”
Tian Shan said, “I asked three people, and they all said the same thing.”
“Looking at his behavior, it doesn’t look like he came from a small family.” This kind of thing is engraved in his bones, and he can’t hide it even if he wants to. Although Yu Da was wearing muslin clothes, the etiquette during dinner made him think that he should be a rich and noble son.
Tian Shan’s heart moved, and he asked, “Does the son suspect that Yu Da has a background? But as far as I know, there is no big family in the capital with the surname Yu.”
Yu Congpei laughed and said, “What do you know about the big families in the capital?” Although his father was not a small official in Shu, he was not enough to see in the capital.
Tian Shan said, “Young Master, this Yu Da should have nothing to do with it. The servants of the Cao Mansion said that he was very stingy, and it would be fine if he didn’t give them a reward, not even tea and cakes. Besides, Yu Da still had leftovers. Leftovers.” For people who have been hungry and poor, it is not a problem to eat leftovers.
Yu Congpei frowned: “But his upbringing is excellent, it’s not something you can just pretend.”
Tian Shan was very smart and said in a low voice, “Young Master, maybe the Yu family was a big family in the previous dynasty. Or, what else is there to hide! Otherwise, why don’t you participate in the imperial examination?”
“If there is a problem with their family’s identity, then his father would not be able to be an official in the court.” Yu Congpei thought this was rather strange, and asked for a while, “Have you heard why Mr. Pang accepted him as a student? “Pang Jinglun is the prince’s teacher, and the threshold for accepting apprentices must be very high. Since this Yu Da is under the sect of Pang Jinglun, there must be something special about him.
Tian Shan said: “It is said that Yu Da’s grandfather and Mr. Pang are close friends, and Yu Da’s wish was to travel around the world since he was a child. When he was twelve years old, he worshipped Mr. Pang as his master. This time I heard that Mr. Pang came to Shu. , he followed.”
Yu Congpei hesitated and asked, “What does Yu Da like on weekdays?” He still felt that Yu Da was not like a son of an ordinary official family.
“I just like touring mountains and water, reciting poetry and writing poems. I don’t like anything else.” After a pause, Tian Shan said in a low voice, “It is said that this person is infatuated with the third girl of the Cao family.” news, should not be false.
“The third girl of the Cao family?”
Tian Shan said with a smile: “The third girl of the Cao family is from Cao Zhifu’s concubine, Concubine Yun, and she is very fond of Cao Zhifu. I heard that this girl not only looks beautiful, but also plays the piano and paints. She is a talented girl. pass.”
Hearing this, Yu Congpei smiled: “What kind of talent can a concubine from the prefect of Mianzhou have?” Nine times out of ten, it was bragging.
It’s not that Yu Congpei has prejudice against concubines, but because of Yuxi’s influence, the Ming Dynasty placed great importance on direct descendants and despised concubines. Even if the prefect of Cao favored his concubine, it was impossible for her to be the housekeeper. Otherwise, if you are impeached by the imperial censor and concubine and destroy your wife, the black hat will not be guaranteed. Since she is the wife’s housekeeper, it is naturally impossible to ask a famous teacher to teach her concubine. There are very few people who can be self-taught. Yu Congpei didn’t think that the third girl of the Cao family could have any extraordinary talent.
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Congpei said, “You look for an opportunity to talk to the entourage around Yu Da and see what he has to say?” If Yu Da is a follower, the credibility will be high.
Tian Shan nodded in response.
Unexpectedly, in the morning of the second day, Yu Congpei met the rumored third girl of the Cao family, who was rumored to be both talented and beautiful.
Yu Congpei wore a robe with a bright gauze and curved collar with emerald blue tea leaves, and a kesi flower and bird pattern inlaid jade belt. His features were white and his face was clear. Holding a fine ink-colored landscape folding fan in his hand, he walks leisurely and suavely.
When Cao Yiqiu saw Yu Congpei take two steps back, he was very frightened.
Her maidservant was also smart, and she said with a cold face, “Who are you? This is the inner courtyard of the Cao family, how did you get in?” Naturally, it is impossible for a serious girl to go to the front yard to meet someone’s young master. Anyone with a little brain will feel that something is wrong.
Yu Congpei smiled at Cao Yiqiu and said, “My surname is Yu, and I am number two in my family.” As he spoke, he looked at Cao Yiqiu.
Cao Yiqiu was wearing a light blue long dress today with a white gauze over it, revealing a graceful neck and clearly visible collarbone. Curved willow eyebrows, a pair of big black crystal-like eyes shining brightly, Gu Pansheng’s love is pitiful, her pink cheeks are slightly flushed, her melon-seed face is as crystal clear as jade, and her tender skin is as smooth as ice.
At this moment, a breeze blew, and the white gauze covered by Cao Yiqiu fluttered. The whole person seemed to float up, like a fairy who descended to earth.
Rao was Yu Congpei, who was accustomed to seeing a lot of beauties and being accosted by women, and was stunned for a while.
Cao Yiqiu blushed, bowed to Yu Cong Peifu, and left quickly with the maid.
“She’s really a beauty.” At least the girl he saw, there was no other woman who was more intelligent and beautiful than this. No wonder Yu Da misses these three girls. It’s him, all…
Thinking of this, Yu Congpei immediately suppressed the thoughts that had arisen in his mind. What he wants to marry in the future must be a famous lady who can bring him help, how can she be a prostitute of the prefect.
Naturally, Mrs. Cao and Cao Yiting, the steward directors, could not escape this matter.
“Mother, take care of it! Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll be dragged down by him.” If Cao Yiting keeps doing this, something will happen sooner or later. At that time, it will be difficult for the girls of the Cao family to marry. Although she is already engaged and is a well-informed uncle, she will definitely be affected.
Mrs. Cao smiled and said, “I’m going to take care of it. Your father will protect you when the time comes. Besides, if Cao Yiqiu can marry the second young master of the Yu family, it will also help your father. How can I stop it?” I can’t stop him, I have to help, so that Cao Yiqiu can marry Yu Congpei smoothly. No, to be precise, let Cao Yiqiu be a concubine to Yu Congpei.
Only Aunt Yun and Cao Yiqiu would be so stupid to think that as long as Yu Congpei liked Cao Yiqiu, she would be able to marry Yu’s family.
“Mother, the second young master of the Yu family is a direct descendant and is still a leader. How could Mrs. Yu let him marry Cao Yiqiu? When something happens, it will be our family that will be embarrassed.” What if Yu Congpei likes Cao Yiqiu? Marriage matters, in the end, is the word of the matchmaker’s life.
Madam Cao said nonchalantly, “Your father is not afraid of being embarrassed, so what are you worrying about?” Cao Fengyu doted on Aunt Yun very much. In the past, she was a powerful family member, but later her son was successful in the jinshi examination, but Aunt Yun did not shake her. status. Otherwise, she would have been riding on her head by Concubine Yun. So, as long as she doesn’t get offended, Madam Cao doesn’t want to take care of what Aunt Yun, mother and son do.
Cao Yiting felt that her mother’s attitude was not good: “Mother, if something humiliating happens, my eldest brother and I will also be affected.”
“Your eldest brother got married and had children, and is now an official abroad. You are already engaged and will get married at the end of the year. No matter what, it will not affect you.” They both like her daughter, so no matter what Cao Yiqiu does, it won’t affect her.
Cao Yiting didn’t agree with Mrs. Cao’s behavior, but she knew that her mother had resentment and hatred in her heart, so she didn’t say much. In order not to make mother sad, she is not ready to intervene.
