lied to Kangxi

Chapter 12 Apprenticeship
To be honest, if it wasn't for Bai Xing's reminder, because of his young age, Yuzhu would never have thought about marriage at all.

Tong's family has the power of the descendants, Longkodo has great power, Li Si'er has plenty of money, and Yuzhu really has no special requirements for what kind of wife to marry.

In these years, most men followed the principle of marrying wives and identities, taking concubines and beauties.The wife is not pretty, so what are you afraid of, just take a few beautiful concubines, that's all.

It's just that the so-called Heshuo's Effie, or the Princess's Effie, is actually too cheating in view of his noble status.As long as there are any promising children of the powerful, they will avoid them!

When Yu Zhu finished brushing the horse silently, Bai Xing's saliva was also sprayed clean.Yuzhu wiped his hands, ordered to go down, and bring warm tea and wine according to the old rules.

Bai Xing never drank tea, he always drank wine like water, and lay down anywhere when he was drunk.Summer is fine, but in winter, Yuzhu is afraid that he will freeze to death outside.

Although Bai Xing's income is extremely high, but because of his alcoholism, Yuzhu has to subsidize several hundred taels of silver every year to make it through the year.

Yuzhu drank tea in small sips, and said lightly: "I'm only 14 years old, didn't you tell others?"

"Hey, that kind of bird's forehead is not for humans, how could I not say it." No matter how confused Bai Xing was, he knew that Yuzhu treated him very well.

Bai Xing was a kind-hearted man who valued loyalty, how could he intentionally deceive his brother?

"Be patient for a few more years, and when I come out, I will find an opportunity to let you resume your post and continue to lead the army."

Power grows out of the handle!

In the last years of Kangxi, Kowloon seized the heir apparent, and it was Long Kedo who held the knife to finally help the fourth elder brother seal the victory.

Yuzhu once approached Longkodo, begging him to help the increasingly decadent Baixing.

However, Longkodo said: "I can mention it to the emperor, and as long as I mention it, Baixing will definitely be able to return to his original position. The question is, what use is Baixing to you and our family? It is worthy of me. To sell this favor?"

"Besides, Bai Xing has always been unruly and unruly because of his bravery. You have to use ruthless hands like an eagle, so that he can be used by you."

This remark made Yuzhu instantly realize that the Tong family's nepotism is only a stepping stone to Longkoduo's power today.

Bai Xing held the jug in his hand, squinted at Yu Zhu, and said with a sneer, "I'm doing pretty well now, so I don't think so much."

Yuzhu knew as soon as he heard that Baixing had a lot of resentment towards Longko.At the beginning, Bai Xing was willing to teach Yuzhu riding and archery. Apart from giving him more money, he also wanted to use Long Kedo's momentum to return to Fengtai Camp.

Bai Xing is worthy of the name of a warrior, he has not even learned the superficiality of his unique skills, three stars in succession, and Yu Zhu.

"Tsk tsk, it's been more than six years. It takes a hundred steps to hit five arrows in the bull's-eye, and riding and shooting is even more appalling. I'll teach you a lesson for nothing." After drinking, Bai Xing's venomous tongue became sharper.

In terms of riding and shooting, Yuzhu has no talent at all. He can achieve today's small achievements because of hard work and hard work.

After returning from the racecourse, Yuzhu just wanted to take a bath and change clothes when he heard the servant report that Hongmei had arrived.

"Second Master, there are people over there who want to see you. Madam will allow it if she is happy for a while." Hongmei bit the bullet and said the embarrassing thing.

Yuzhu smiled slightly, Li Si'er liked to listen to flattery, and it was easy to get carried away if he was praised by others.

A handsome man with a lot of right and wrong, Yuzhu doesn't want to provoke too much right and wrong.

"Go and tell your wife, just say that I went out to meet friends." Yuzhu dismissed Hongmei with a few words.

A few days later, Tang Bing, who once served as the censor of Tixue and is now a lecturer at the Imperial Academy, replied to Long Ke, saying that he wanted to see Yu Zhu before making a decision.

Long Kedo narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "This is done! You just need to prepare generous gifts."

Yu Zhu didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that Tang Bing might really want to test his knowledge.

In the past, when Yuzhu was a doctoral student, under the same doctoral supervisor, some people could win the favor of the doctoral supervisor, and published heavyweight papers one after another.Some people, however, got stuck on the dissertation, resulting in delayed graduation.

In the Imperial Academy, there were few things to do and people were free, so Tang Bing had a lot of free time.

On the appointed day, Yuzhu went to Tang's mansion with a carefully prepared gift after hastily eating breakfast.

The officials of the Imperial Academy are more than noble, but they have no way to make money.

Tang Bing's official career is not very good, and he is still a fifth-rank Hanlin Academy attendant.However, the Tang family is not poor.Tang Bing went on three school errands, not only as the censor of Tixue, but also as admiral and xuezheng twice.

The admiral Xuezheng may seem inconspicuous, but he is the highest academic official in the province, and he is responsible for presiding over the college examination.As long as he is a student in the middle school, he will be recognized as a teacher, and all kinds of etiquette and filial piety are indispensable.

Tang House is near Dashilan.When there were still a hundred meters away from the gate of the mansion, Yuzhu stopped the carriage and asked the young man to walk over with the gift.

Wu Jiang knocked open the door of Tang Mansion, handed over Longkodo's name card respectfully, and said with a smile: "My lord, Mr. Tang ordered my young master to come here today."

The steward of Tang's concierge had already received orders from the inside, and knew that the young master of the nine-door admiral's family would come over today.

"My lord, please wait a moment, let me go in and report." The steward looked very polite on the surface, but he didn't let Yu Zhu in, let alone invite the entry room to sit down and serve tea. .

Yuzhu knew it in his heart, this was the little trick that literati like to play, trying to frustrate his momentum.

Scholars are mostly hypocrites, standing up and down again.Since everyone in the cultural circle likes this set of tricks, Yuzhu doesn't mind, and if he mixes with the team, he will also be a hypocrite.

Yu Zhu stood in front of the door for half an hour, when a word came from inside, "My lord has invited Mr. Yu Er."

The three masters and servants of Yuzhu were as calm as water, as if they were left out in front of the door, just enjoying the scenery.

The chief steward of the Tang Mansion, who led the way, scrutinized him secretly, and couldn't help but secretly marvel.Isn't the Tong family extremely arrogant?
Entering Tang Bing's study, Yuzhu saw a handsome middle-aged man sitting on the main seat, he quickly bowed to the ground, and said respectfully: "My nephew Yuzhu, I pay my respects to my uncle."

"Haha, my nephew made you wait for a long time, don't you blame the old man?" Tang Bing deliberately provoked Yu Zhu with words.

Yuzhu respectfully bowed to the ground, and said calmly: "My nephew is here to get the scriptures, how can I blame you, uncle?" He didn't say much, but he fully expressed his correct attitude of not being afraid of making things difficult.

Tang Bing stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I'll ask you a question, my nephew, how about it?"

It is inevitable for literati to accept apprentices and test their knowledge, so there is no need to say more.
