lied to Kangxi

Chapter 71 The Cold Bench

In Yuzhu's dictionary, there are only three major things that are worth fighting for: power, money and women.

Who dares to offend Yuzhu in these three aspects, he doesn't mind at all if the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out!
"Brother Linyi, Brother Yu is not persuading you. It seems that there are still a few months before Qiu Wei. If you fall into something bad, is it right for you to study hard for more than ten years?" Zhang Tinglu's words made people feel excited Yu Zhu nodded frequently.

Don't look at Zhang Tinglu who always likes to put on the stinky airs of the son of Xiangguo, but what he said is very reasonable.

Since Boss Zhang spoke first, Yu Zhu began to criticize Yu Hongtu unceremoniously.

"Brother Lin, my younger brother thinks that since you are so reckless, you might as well just go back to your hometown. Why do you need to take the scientific examination and want to be an official? Today you can break your leg indiscriminately, and tomorrow you may lose your head because of it. "Yu Zhu deliberately spoke very seriously, the purpose is to wake up Yu Hongtu.

If you are so careless, the officialdom in the future will be dangerous, can you avoid it?

Yu Hongtu was cut in half because he was careless before presiding over the examination, and his concubine stole the examination questions and sold them for a lot of money.

So far, in Yu Zhu's study room, apart from the drafts of stereotyped essays and policy questions, even the test post poems will be burned to ashes by his own hands.

Because what he wanted to do was an earth-shattering event, and if he was a little careless, the whole family would die without a place to bury him.

Under the great shadow of Gua Manchao, leaving behind poems is tantamount to sending your head into someone else's tiger's mouth, and it depends on when the time is right to bite.

Back then, after Longkodo's downfall, his home was dug five feet and searched, not even a single piece of paper was allowed to be left behind.

It can be seen that writing a diary, writing poems, and composing lyrics are not only not beneficial at all, but may be a reminder to lose your head.

Yu Zhu, who was always very gentle, suddenly put on a straight face and began to scold others. Yu Hongtu couldn't adapt for a while, and his face turned red.

Zhang Tinglu also felt very strange, Yu Zhu is a person who never speaks harshly easily, what happened today?
After getting along with Yu Hongtu for so many days, Yu Zhu felt that Yu Hongtu was a warm-hearted person with a pure heart and was worth saving.

Character determines destiny, and I am not deceiving myself!

Yu Hongtu lived to be 24 years old, and this was the first time he was scolded by a young boy in public. He felt a little embarrassed and couldn't refute, so he kept his head silent.

Yu Zhu just tried it out, if Yu Hongtu immediately launched a counterattack out of face, he would definitely not be able to continue talking.

Now that Yu Hongtu knew he was ashamed, Yuzhu decided to help him again.

"Brother Lin, you and I will both walk in the officialdom in the future. People's hearts are separated by belly, even people around you may disregard your life or death because of different interests."

Yuzhu told Yu Hongtu that Niu Lun, Long Kedo's most trusted manager, secretly accepted bribes, broke his leg and drove him out of the mansion, as a typical example.

"Look, this Niu Lun is the son-in-law servant of our Tong family. He has been greatly favored for generations, but he has earned tens of thousands of silver in private. He even bought an outhouse and kept several beautiful concubines. Living a life that is more luxurious than my younger brother is really terrifying." Seeing Yu Hongtu looking up at him in shock, Yuzhu obviously listened to it, so he couldn't help but nodded secretly, there is still help.

Zhang Tinglu narrowed her eyes, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Actually, the chief steward in my old house is roughly similar to Niu Lun's bad behavior. It's just that my father acted more decisively and found a suitable time." , dealt with him in time."

Both Yuzhu and Yu Hongtu understood the so-called treatment of famous families, they couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled, and the embarrassment they had just disappeared immediately.

Because Wu Sidao's family was poor and he had never experienced it, it took him a while to understand the taste.

To be honest, Zhang Tinglu was able to reveal her shortness and express her feelings, which was beyond Yuzhu's expectation.

The four of them are classmates, and there is no fundamental conflict of interest. Moreover, they are still young, and there is still a chance to make friends.

Making friends has never been a burden to shave your head.

In the past, an old classmate that Yuzhu valued very much really did everything he asked for.However, when Yuzhu came to him for something, he let him off several times.

After more times, Yuzhu's fiery heart became cold.

Yu Hongtu's leg was actually nothing serious, it was just a relatively serious soft tissue contusion.

Seeing that Lao Gao was swollen, in fact, he didn't hurt his tendons or bones. He lay down and recuperated for a few days, and when the swelling subsided, he would be fine.

Various non-fracture Dieda plasters in the field of traditional Chinese medicine are indeed unique.Promoting blood circulation and removing stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, no problem at all.

Under Yu Hongtu's arrangement, Zhang Deguang accompanied Zhang Tinglu and the three of them to have dinner together.

In the northern rural areas of this era, it is generally eaten dry when busy, and porridge with wild vegetables or sweet potatoes when free, two meals a day.

In Jiangnan Province, the land of fish and rice, due to its rich products, the average rich family eats three meals a day.

During the meal, Zhang Deguang called Zhang Tinglu to drink frequently, leaving Yuzhu and Wu Sidao aside.

Wu Sidao felt very uncomfortable, so he wanted to say a few strange words to remind Zhang Deguang not to look down on others.

Yuzhu saw that Wu Sidao's mood was not right, so he raised his foot and lightly kicked his thigh under the big round table.

Wu Sidao turned his head around, but saw Yu Zhu shaking his head imperceptibly, he sighed secretly, and had to stop thinking about fighting back.

After they parted with Zhang Deguang today, when they met again, they didn't know whether it was the Year of the Monkey or the Moon of the Horse, so why bother to be serious?
Zhang Tinglu was not an idiot either, he quickly noticed Zhang Deguang's snobbish eyes, and couldn't help being secretly displeased.

When toasting again, Zhang Tinglu was not so cheerful.

After all, the three of them came together, how could they be so obvious?

Besides, even if Zhang Ying did not become an official, how could the Zhang family in Tongcheng be compared with the Tong Jia family in Beijing?
Dogs see people as inferior, Zhang Tinglu's self-cultivation is good, and she didn't really scold.

Just when several people were dissatisfied, the servants came to report that Yan Yongguang, the arresting and robber confidant of Zhenjiang Mansion, had arrived.

Zhang Deguang got up quickly, bowed his hands to Zhang Tinglu and the three of them, and bowed in circles.

He said apologetically: "This Yan Tongzhi is the uncle of my younger brother's direct relative. My family relies on his support for all matters of our family." There was a sense of complacency in his words.

Zhang Tinglu is the eldest brother, so it is naturally impossible for Yuzhu, the youngest, to interrupt first.He lowered his head, took a piece of bamboo shoot with his chopsticks, put it in his mouth, chewed slowly on purpose, and blocked his mouth.

Facing Zhang Deguang, who was showing such domineering power, what could Zhang Tinglu say? He cultivated himself well and didn't care about anything. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, go now, I'll entertain everyone for you."

"Oh, brother Zhang, you are a distinguished guest, how can you be so embarrassed?" Zhang Deguang said a few polite words, and then left without looking back.
