The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 980 Accept Zheng An?

"You are more open about this than your father. Perhaps, your father thought that it would not be a big problem to do these things outside the war. It's not a big deal, but this time, your father did too much and provoked public anger." Li Chengqian said: "When you return home in the future, you should try to persuade your father."

Hou Shi nodded: "When I have a chance to go back to the mansion in the future, I will definitely talk to my father about it."

"Don't worry, there will be a chance. Your father will come home from the sky prison. He will definitely not leave the house in the past few days. After staying in the sky prison for such a long time, I am afraid that he is also aggrieved. You will clean up in a while. Gu asked a few guards to accompany you back to your mother's house, you and your father may not have seen each other for a long time, stay at home with your father, talk to him, don't be afraid, there is Gu behind you." Li Chengqian said.

Hou's return to the mansion to visit Hou Junji also represented the prince's attitude. No matter how dissatisfied Hou Junji was, he would not have any opinion on Hou.

Moreover, it is not a bad thing for the Hou family to return to the Hou's mansion. At least some people can see clearly the prince's attitude towards Hou Junji, so that they will not belittle Hou Junji in the court in the future. After all, Hou Junji is the prince's father-in-law. For one thing, it won't damage Li Chengqian's reputation.

"En." Hou agreed.

The news that Hou Junji was released from the prison quickly spread to Dongshan County. His Majesty Li Er's punishment for Hou Junji was not too severe, as many people expected, so Xuan Shijing was not surprised by this. .

"It seems that Your Majesty still prefers General Hou." In the study, Qin Bingyue said while grinding for Xuan Shijing.

"Talents are not easy to come by. Do you think it would be easy for a person to get to the position of general? Being able to get to this position shows his own ability and talent. If such a person hadn't made a huge mistake, the court would not Willing to kill." Xuan Shijing said.

It is not easy to cultivate another talent like Hou Junji.

"Besides, apart from these factors, Hou Junji was originally the prince's father-in-law. Now that the prince has encountered so many things these days, if His Majesty disposes of Hou Junji at this time, how many people will treat the prince? , turned into a scumbag again, this is not what His Majesty wants to see." Xuan Shijing said: "From the perspective of Dang Renhong's matter, His Majesty is also a nostalgic person, and Hou Junji followed His Majesty all the way. After so many years of ups and downs, His Majesty will not easily abandon Hou Junji."

"Master Hou is right. Except for these things, all the property that Hou Junji looted in Gaochang has already entered the treasury." Qin Bingyue said.

Xuan Shijing nodded: "So, this is the result that people in the court want to see, especially the Ministry of Household Affairs. Now the national treasury is full."

All the wealth of a country has gone into the national treasury, and now the household department has become very rich.

The people in the household department have no grievances with Hou Junji, and the relationship between Hou Junji and the crown prince is also very close. The people in the household department will not be stupid enough to offend Hou Junji to death, so they get such a big benefit After that, I'm afraid the people from the household department will also stand behind Hou Junji.

What they covet are nothing more than the property of Gaochang Kingdom.

"The minds of the people in this court are really deep. People like me can't guess it." Qin Bingyue said with emotion.

Originally, she thought that she was in the brothel, trying every means to make her life more comfortable, which was already on her mind, but after seeing all kinds of affairs in the court, she realized that being an official is really not something ordinary people can do.

"If you don't have that diamond, you won't be able to take on that porcelain job. Every three years there will be an imperial examination in the court. There are not a few people who come out on top and talents who have caught the eyes of His Majesty. But after so many years of accumulation, look at the current court , isn’t it still the world of the aristocratic family, how many real talents from poor families are there?” Xuan Shijing laughed and said, “Let’s take Zheng An as an example, he won the champion of the first palace examination, but look, now this Zheng An What kind of life is An living? It's not about trying to climb up to the Dongshanhou Mansion. I only know that he may be very talented, but I don't know if he is suitable for being an official, because the Zheng family is suppressing him very much now. "

"Will Lord Hou accept Zheng An?" Qin Bingyue asked.

It is not once or twice that Zheng An went to the Hou Mansion to find a relationship. Perhaps he stubbornly believed that only Xuan Shijing could resist the pressure of the Zheng family for him, because he also knew that the previous relationship between Xuan Shijing and the Zheng family seemed to be Not very good.

"Speaking of Zheng An, speaking of it, he has been tested for a long time." Xuan Shijing asked.

"Master Hou already attracted people's attention before he left for Liaodong, didn't he? It's been quite a while now." Qin Bingyue said.

When Xuan Shijing asked about this, Qin Bingyue felt that her Lord Hou wanted to recruit Zheng An on purpose.

"Let Chang Le go to Gao Jun and show me Zheng An's information for this year. Also, didn't he say to ask him to arrange Zheng An to meet me? Why has there been no news for so long?" Xuan Shijing asked.

Qin Bingyue nodded: "Well, I'll ask right now."

Qin Bingyue left the study and returned after about an hour, followed by Chang Le.

"See Lord Hou." Chang Le bowed his hands.

"Excuse me, have you brought what I want?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Bring it here, because Lord Hou is living in Zhuangzi for a long time now, so some materials are backed up in the house." Chang Le said, took out a booklet from his arms, and handed it to Xuan Shijing respectfully .

Xuan Shijing took the brochure, but was not in a hurry to look through it: "Is there any information in the house?"

Chang Le nodded: "It was ordered by the head of the house, since Lord Hou has been in Zhuangzi all the time, we need to prepare some here. The Shenhou Mansion is in Chang'an City. Prepare a copy of these things. It is safe and convenient. Master Hou checked."

"Where is the place?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Temporarily put it in the room next to the warehouse. Uncle Zhong is already starting to build the secret room. The people who use it are all trusted servants of the family." Chang Le said: "My wife has agreed to this matter. I will come to find Lord Hou."

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Well, let my mother and Uncle Zhong do it, this matter is a secret, the tighter the news, the better."

"Yes."

After instructing Chang Le, Xuan Shijing picked up the booklet and began to look through it.

Zheng An's life this year has also been miserable. Not all people can be like Ma Zhou, who came from a poor family and was favored by His Majesty Li Er. As a result, his qualifications in the court still can't catch the eyes of those big shots.
