lied to Kangxi

Chapter 14

On this day, when Yuzhu came, Tang Bing was still in Hanli courtyard, so he was led by his mother-in-law as usual to greet Mrs. Zhou in the inner courtyard.

Mrs. Zhou was sitting upright on the kang, with an old woman with gray hair standing beside her, and there was no one else around.

"Student Yuzhu, I pay my respects to Mrs. Master." Yuzhu was very disciplined, never looking around, clasped his fists and bowed to the ground, appearing extremely respectful.

Since Yuzhu made up his mind to join the ranks of hypocrites and literati, he naturally dared not neglect the slightest etiquette.

Mrs. Zhou nodded in satisfaction, raised her right hand falsely, and said with a smile: "You child, how many times have I said this, but you are still so polite, you really deserve a spanking."

Hehe, unless Yu Zhu's head was caught by the door, he would take Mrs. Zhou's false politeness seriously.

"Have you ever had breakfast?" Mrs. Zhou would like to care about Yu Zhu's life as usual, and talk about the household chores, so as to make the relationship between them more intimate.

'Go back to Mrs. Mistress, the students have had breakfast at home.Before going out, my father repeatedly warned the students to listen to the words of their mentor and teacher's wife, and not to be naughty. "Yuzhu's answer was watertight, and he praised Tang Bing and Mrs. Zhou highly.

Although Tang Bing's official position is not worth mentioning, Mrs. Zhou's natal family, the Zhou family in Ningbo, is a family of three scholars and a well-known scholarly family.

It's a pity that Mrs. Zhou is only the concubine of the Zhou family in Ningbo, and the Zhou family has many children, so they don't have extra political resources to take care of Tang Bing.

Tang Bing said he was Tong Guowei's disciple, but in fact, he was just a disciple of the disciple.It is impossible for the political resources of the Tong family to take care of Tang Bing.

Now that Tang Bing is Yuzhu's teacher, even if Longkodo looks at his son, he will definitely take care of Tang Bing's future.

However, Yuzhu is not like the Tong family at all, not only not arrogant and domineering, but also extraordinarily polite and humble.

Tang Bing said in private that Yuzhu's acquisition of Manchurian Jinshi is like finding something out of a bag.It's just that the words are average, and the ranking is hard to say.

Mrs. Zhou fell in love with her more and more, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The unusually handsome and talented Yu Zhu, if he wasn't a banner man, he could just be her son-in-law.

After more than half of the homework, Yuzhu seemed to just remember, cupped his hands and said: "I heard that the Zuo Shuzi of Zhan Shifu's Zuochunfang behaved imprudently, so I asked the supervisor to intervene."

Mrs. Zhou was born in a famous family, and she was a person on the scene. She knew that this must be what Long Keduo asked Yu Zhu to bring, and wanted to use her mouth to pass it on to Tang Bing.

Zhan Shi's Mansion, which is called the East Palace, is actually a ladder for the transfer of Hanlin Ci officials, not the crown prince's staff.

Zuo Shuzi, the fifth grade, is the chief official of Zhan Shifu Zuochunfang.Under Zuo Shuzi's hands, many people are in charge, and the real power is much greater than that of the Imperial Academy attendant.

As we all know, the right and left concubine of the fifth rank is one of the main watersheds for the promotion of Hanlin Ci officials.After passing the fifth grade, the speed of transfer will be significantly accelerated.

Mrs. Zhou suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, and said kindly: "I am a woman, how can I know so much?"

Yu Zhu stopped pointing, Chang Yi said goodbye, Mrs. Zhou asked the old nanny beside him to send him out of the second door.

Sitting in the study specially arranged by Tang Bing, Yuzhu reviewed yesterday's homework as usual, and then practiced reviewing and solving questions.

Tang Bing is very experienced. He once said that the vast majority of candidates who fail the exam are due to inaccurate examination questions.

If the review of the questions is not allowed, there must be mistakes in solving the questions, and it is definitely a failure.

Therefore, Tang Bing just arranged Yuzhu recently to concentrate on improving the ability of reviewing questions.Meals should always be eaten one bite at a time, and you must not be impatient.

It was almost noon, Wu Jiang brought a food box and put the food on the table.After lunch, after sitting for a while, Yu Zhu strolled around the front yard to digest food as usual.

The Tang family is far less wealthy than the Tong family, and the front yard is not big.With hands behind his back, Yuzhu walked around the corridor slowly.

Suddenly, Yuzhu heard the woman's voice.

"Girl, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, why don't you take some and make peach cakes?"

"You gluttonous little hoof, you know how to eat."

"Hee hee, although the slaves are greedy, they never sleep in late."

"Damn girl, you're still proud of yourself."

In front of the corridor is a stone window separated by a stone net, from which one can see a bit of the inner courtyard.

Among the Hanchens, the defense of men and women, who do not see evil, is regarded as a natural moat, which must not be surpassed.

Yuzhu turned around and left without any hesitation.Even if there is no rule that Manchus and Hans do not marry, he absolutely does not want to have anything to do with his teacher's daughter.

Tang Lingshan deliberately stood guard here, just to see Yuzhu.Who would have thought that she stood under the peach tree for a long time, but there was no sign of Yuzhu.

Mrs. Zhou got up from her afternoon nap, and the wet nurse Zhang Momo was helping her comb her hair while whispering, "Our girl is admiring the peach blossoms in the inner courtyard. Second Master Yu turned around and left after a long distance, which is very polite. offspring."

Inseparable kiss!

Originally, Nanny Zhang didn't want to be troublesome.However, she assisted Mrs. Zhou and took charge of the general affairs of the inner courtyard.The responsibility lies, if she sits idly by, she will definitely end badly in the future.

Mrs. Zhou seems to have a gentle temper, but in fact, she is a cruel woman.If the Tang family's pro-daughter gets entangled with the outsider and gets involved in a scandal, even if Nanny Zhang is Mrs. Zhou's wet nurse, she will not be able to escape the bad luck of being killed by a cane or dying of a sudden illness.

When Mrs. Zhou was still in her natal family, because she was an unfavored concubine, she learned early on the skills of observing words and expressions, and being obedient.

After understanding what Zhang Nanny said, Mrs. Zhou was trembling with anger. She burst into flames and said angrily: "You are a good girl, you have been taken away by that screwdriver, a lowly slave, and a slave. Go, ask someone to take the girl away." All the maids around her were tied up, locked in the firewood shed first, starved for three days, and then beaten severely."

"Yes." Under Mrs. Zhou's fury, Nanny Zhang didn't dare to say a word of nonsense, she lowered her head and went out to call for someone.

There was a sudden storm in the backyard of the Tang family, and there were as many as four girls who were killed by sticks alone.As for the girls who were drugged with dumb drugs and sold far away, there were even more girls.

Yu Zhu knew nothing about it.It wasn't until half a month later that he accidentally heard the women in the Tang family gossip, that he knew that Tang Bing's mother was ill, and the girl from the Tang family was sent to her hometown to take care of her father.

On this day, Tang Bing was in the study, explaining the mysteries of the Gongyuan to Yuzhu.

"Shuntian Mansion's college examination and township examination are both in the same tribute courtyard. There are a lot of bad names in the tribute courtyard, and the time of the exam is not coincidental, so I shiver from the cold and can't lift my pen..."

Yuzhu nodded frequently, professional things must be done by professionals.In any case, the exam experience in Tang Bing's mind was like a glittering treasure house, which benefited him a lot.

Speaking of intoxication, Tang Bing was about to stop and have a sip of tea, when he saw the long follower who stayed in the Imperial Academy rush into the study directly, and said out of breath: "Master, Master, the palace's decree has arrived at the Imperial Academy. The academician ordered the younger one to find you quickly."

Having been an official for so many years, Tang Bing has long cultivated the ability to hide his emotions and anger.

He took a long breath, forcibly suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, and said lightly, "Why are you panicking? How did the old man teach you on weekdays? Whenever there is a big event, there is calmness, understand?"

"Turn back, I'll go to the housekeeper to get ten boards." After Tang Bing dealt with the panicked long entourage, he walked around slowly and walked outside.

Before going out, Tang Bing took a deep look at Yuzhu.Both master and apprentice showed knowing smiles at the same time, everything was kept silent.
