The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 2179

[Chapter 2179 Tie Kui Fanwai (103)]

Meng Ranxi didn’t dare to be sloppy when it came to her own future. After Meng Shangshu returned to the mansion, he went to inquire about the matter.

The grandfather and grandson talked for a while in the study.

Back in his yard, Ru Hui had already coaxed the two children to sleep.

Meng Ranxi said to Ruhui, “Grandfather said that it is not yet time, so let me feel at ease as an official in the Ministry of Personnel.”

Meng Shangshu didn’t say that it could not be released, but said that it was not time. Ruhui knew that the old man had other plans.

After thinking for a while, Ruhui asked, “I heard A Zhan say that the emperor may abdicate in the past two years. Grandfather is not allowed to go out now. Is it related to this?”

But Meng Ranxi was still surprised: “Azhan actually told you about this?”

“Azhan didn’t tell me, it was when my younger brother and sister were chatting with me. But the prince is now in custody of the country, the emperor and the queen have begun to delegate power, and it will be a matter of time to abdicate.” The prince is handling it. Anyone with discernment knows that the emperor is about to abdicate.

Meng Ranxi nodded and said, “Grandfather really said so. Your Majesty, he may abdicate next year.” As one of the six ministers, he knew the emperor’s movements much better than others.

Ruhui asked with some doubts: “But what does the emperor’s abdication have to do with your expatriation?”

Meng Ranxi said, “The emperor recruits ministers at a time. The crown prince is young, and naturally he likes to use young ministers. If the crown prince succeeds, the court will definitely change.”

Ruhui is not a person who only stares at one-third of an acre of land in the inner house. She also pays attention to things outside: “Did my grandfather think too much? You are only a seventh-rank official now, and the changes in the court can have something to do with you. what relationship?”

Meng Ranxi said: “The courtroom is also closely related to the locality. Grandfather said, wait another three to five years to find a better job.”

Ruhui sighed and stopped talking about this topic. But the next day, she had someone send a message to Ning Zhan, saying that she had something to look for.

That day, Ning Zhan asked Shuangshou to buy some toys, which he personally delivered to Meng Mansion in the evening.

Ruhui asked people to take the two children away, and then told Ning Zhan about Meng Ranxi’s release.

Ruhui said, “Your brother-in-law is only a seventh-rank official. Even if the crown prince’s succession changes, it has nothing to do with him. But what your brother-in-law said is not without reason. Ah Zhan, I just want to hear your advice. .”

Ning Zhan is now the guard in front of the royal family, and he must be better informed than them when walking around the palace. Coupled with the fact that Prince Ning Zhan was very serious and befriended Brother You, Ruhui believed his judgment even more.

“Second sister, this matter mainly depends on what brother-in-law thinks.” The opinions of the parties are the most important.

Ruhui said with a bitter face: “Your brother-in-law listened to the old man.” This is also true, after all, Meng Shangshu has been in office for so many years. Listen to him, you can take a lot of detours.

Ning Zhan shook his head and said, “Staying in the capital has the advantages of staying in the capital, and there are also advantages of going outside. Second sister, I can’t give advice on this matter.” , he will certainly not refuse if he can help. But whether to go abroad or stay in Beijing, how can he make a decision on this matter. If the career goes well, everyone will be happy; but if Meng Ranxi’s career is not smooth, he will not be blamed for the rest of his life.

Ruhui was a little frustrated.

Seeing her like this, Ning Zhan thought about it and said, “Second sister, the emperor and the queen are working hard to cultivate the king, hoping that he can become the prince’s arm in the future.”

Ruhui knew that Ning Zhan would not say useless words: “Ayou, what do you mean by that?”

“Second sister, now King You is working in the Ministry of Punishment, and he has done a good job.” The Empress asked too much of His Royal Highness King You, so she was always dissatisfied with him. But Ning Zhan felt that Qiyou had done a very good job. At least, he was out of reach.

Ruhui still didn’t understand the meaning of this. The husband’s release has nothing to do with King You.

Ning Zhan didn’t want to say more, it was not beautiful if he spoke too thoroughly: “Just tell your brother-in-law this. By the way, why hasn’t my brother-in-law come back so late?”

Ruhui said, “Your brother-in-law and colleagues invited him to have a drink together, and he will be back later today.” Well, men, they will be entertained when they are on business. As long as you don’t go to brothels and other places to drink flower wine, Ruhui will not care.

Ning Zhan didn’t stay too long, and left after speaking.

When Meng Ranxi came back, it was already dark. After sitting down, he asked, “I heard from the concierge that A Zhan is here? Is it for me?”

Ruhui nodded and said, “Azhan said that staying in Beijing and going outside have their own advantages, and it depends on how we choose.”

Meng Ranxi snorted, leaned back on the chair and asked, “Apart from these, what else did Ah Zhan say?” Today, he drank a little too much wine, which made him a little dizzy.

Ruhui hesitated for a while, and then repeated what Ning Zhan said about Qiyou: “I thought about it for a while, but I still don’t understand what Ah Zhan means?”

After listening to this, Meng Ranxi’s drunkenness subsided, and the person sat upright in an instant: “You repeat what A Zhan said word for word.”

Seeing how serious he was, Ruhui repeated the words from beginning to end: “Xianggong, I asked him what he meant, and he just said that I must tell you this.”

Meng Ranxi’s face was a little solemn.

Ruhui thought about it again, but still couldn’t figure it out: “Mr. Xianggong, what kind of cleverness is there in Ah Zhan’s words?”

Meng Ranxi explained her guess: “What A Zhan means, if the prince ascends the throne, he will definitely use You Wang. And You Wang is currently working in the Ministry of Punishment.”

“What do you mean, if the prince ascends the throne, he will replace his grandfather as the Minister of Punishment?” After speaking, Ruhui shook his head and said, “Impossible, how old is King You, how can he be appointed as the Minister of Punishment in his early twenties? ”

“The empress can’t, it doesn’t mean that the prince won’t.” After speaking, Meng Ran said, “King You has always been the prince’s leader, and he is capable, the prince will definitely promote him when he ascends the throne. At that time, the grandfather will have to take the position. freed up.”

The eldest master of the Meng family is now only a fourth-rank prefect, and Meng Ranxi’s generation has not yet risen. Once Meng Shangshu was appointed, it would be a fatal blow to the Meng family. At least it has a great impact on the future of their backs.

Ruhui hesitated and said, “Xiang Gong, maybe A Zhan’s guess is wrong. Grandfather has been in the officialdom for so many years, so he must see it better than him.”

Meng Shangshu’s political literacy is definitely much higher than that of Ning Zhan. However, Ning Zhan grew up beside the emperor and had a good relationship with the prince and the fourth prince. In this regard, his judgment must be more accurate than his grandfather. It is also because of the close relationship, otherwise my brother-in-law would not have said this to him.

Seeing him frown, Ruhui thought for a while and said comfortably, “Grandfather is so old, he will retire sooner or later. We can’t rely on him forever.”

Meng Ranxi glanced at Ruhui when she heard the words, and said with a smile, “I was just thinking, is it better to go outside?”

She didn’t understand the affairs of the officialdom, and Ruhui didn’t dare to make random decisions, she just said: “You can make up your mind about this matter. But if you want to go out, you have to make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll end up in a corner.”

“This matter, I will find an opportunity to discuss it with my grandfather.” Grandfather has been in the officialdom for so many years, and he must think longer than him.

When Zeng Chenfu was out of confinement, in addition to taking care of household chores, all her thoughts were on her husband and son.

Hearing Madam Zeng coming, she thought she was here to see their mother and son. But seeing Madam Zeng’s ugly face, Zeng Chenfu knew something was wrong.

Mrs. Zeng said, “Your father asked Zeng Miaojia to come to Beijing, and he also said that he wanted to find her in the capital to marry her? Fu’er, you said that your father was trying to embarrass me!”

Zeng Chenfu’s face was pulled down instantly: “Mother, Zeng Miaojia’s heart is higher than the sky. She will definitely not be satisfied with the marriage you found for her. When she makes a fool of herself, it will be all your fault. ”

Madam Zeng hesitated.

Seeing Madam Zeng’s appearance, Zeng Chenfu couldn’t help sighing and said, “Mother, why don’t you write a letter to tell your grandfather about it, and let him solve it.”

“Fu’er, your father will definitely be unhappy if he knows.” No way, it’s too scary for Master Zeng to lose his temper. As long as Mrs. Zeng thought about it, she felt a little worried.

“Mother, if Zeng Chenfu makes a scandal in the capital, it will bring shame to the whole family. If you don’t say that your grandfather and grandmother can’t get around you, even Adi’s career and marriage will be affected.” Zeng Chenfu’s eldest brother has not yet To be engaged, Mrs. Zeng meant that he would try again before talking about the marriage. After passing the exam, the family can go to a higher level. If you don’t pass the exam, the family relationship will not be bad.

After hearing this, Madam Zeng hesitated and said, “I, I will write to your grandfather when I go back.”

To prevent Mrs. Zeng from falling off the chain at a critical time, Zeng Chenfu wrote a letter to Mrs. Zeng herself. After writing it, send someone to send it to Hunan immediately. She believed that as long as the old man saw what Zeng Miaojia had done during his time in the capital, he would never let Zeng Miaojia stay in the capital again.

Zeng Miaojia wanted to seduce Ning Zhan to disgust Zeng Chenfu, but this failed. However, she succeeded in hooking up the Li family Liu Shao who was close to the Zeng family, and the other party wanted to marry her as his wife, but Li Liu Shao’s mother despised Zeng Miaojia, and the matter was over. And this is why Zeng Miaojia insists on coming to the capital, because she is confident that she will be able to marry a better husband than the Pang family uncle by virtue of her appearance.

When Zeng Miaojia arrived in the capital, she was planning to find her a satisfactory marriage. Before she could make any move, the people sent by Mrs. Zeng arrived.

This time, Grandpa Zeng sent his confidant to bring Zeng Miaojia’s mother and daughter back to their hometown.

Zeng Miaojia was naturally reluctant, but unfortunately, Mrs. Zeng’s people didn’t take her seriously at all. Seeing Zeng Miaojia’s uncooperative remarks, he tied her up and blocked her mouth.

Madam Zeng said to her eldest son with a puzzled face: “The letter I wrote was sent out ten days ago, how come the old man’s people came so quickly?” From here to Hunan, it usually takes about ten days for the letter to arrive!

The uncle of the Zeng family knew that Zeng Chenfu sent the letter back to Hunan, and immediately took it to himself: “Mother, I have someone tell my grandfather.” Zeng Chenfu is already married, and it is wrong to meddle in her parents’ affairs. And his father knew that he would definitely start scolding again. On the contrary, it was him, because he was the eldest son of the family, his father would reprimand him even if he knew the most, and would not treat him like that.
