Great Song Super Scholar

Chapter 491 Time to run
Fan Ning really didn't expect Zhao Zhongzhen to come, he rushed out to greet him, Zhong Nan was so nervous that his legs cramped, what's going on today?Not only the well-known Fan Ning came to take office, but now His Royal Highness Liang Wang also came, and he followed nervously.

Dozens of people stood in the square in front of Zhan Shi’s mansion, all of them were guards, surrounded by the young Liang Wang Zhao Zhongzhen. stern.

Fan Ning hastily stepped forward and bowed in salute, "My humble minister, Fan Ning, see His Royal Highness King Liang!"

Behind Zhong Nan's legs were weak, and he simply knelt down and kowtowed.

Zhao Zhongzhen looked at the empty East Palace, and asked: "Master, the court is very busy ahead, why is it so deserted here, where are the officials?"

"Your Highness, the officials of the East Palace are right in front of you!" Fan Ning said with a wry smile.

Zhao Zhongzhen took a deep breath, "It's just the two of you, the imperial grandfather asked me to stay in the East Palace to study, what should I do then?"

Only then did Fan Ning suddenly realize that Zhao Zhen did not cheat himself, he entrusted Zhao Zhongzhen to himself.

He turned around and asked, "Cheng Zhongfu, where is the study place in the East Palace?"

Zhong Nan was so happy that his heart was about to explode, the future emperor actually wanted to live in the East Palace, did his luck finally turn around?
He hastily said, "Reading is at the Chongwen Museum in the back!"

Fan Ning nodded, "Your Highness, I have just arrived in the East Palace, and I don't know anything, so let's go and have a look together!"

"Then trouble the magistrate!"

Zhong Nan was obliged to become a guide. As he walked, he repeated the official position he had just introduced to Fan Ning. Soon, the group arrived at Chongwen Hall.

Zhong Nan ran in to report. Fan Ning and Zhao Zhongzhen stood aside and talked in a low voice. A group of guards stood far away. They were all smart people and knew to give Liang Wang some personal space.

"Didn't Your Highness study in Zishantang before? How did you come to the East Palace?" Fan Ning asked.

Zishantang, also known as Hongwenguan, is located between the East Palace and Daqing Palace. It is the place where the children of the royal family study. It is there that Zhao Zhen discovered the extremely talented Zhao Zhongzhen.

Zhao Zhongzhen shook his head, "I don't know, anyway, wherever the imperial grandfather arranges for me to go, I will go there?"

"Have you visited your parents then?"

Zhao Zhongzhen still shook his head, "The imperial grandfather forbids me to leave the palace. My mother came to visit me yesterday afternoon. My mother told me to keep a low profile, be humble and self-disciplined, study hard, and ask my uncle if I don't understand anything."

Fan Ning sighed in his heart. In comparison, Gao Taotao was much smarter than her husband Zhao Zongshi. He knew how to remind his son to keep a low profile at the critical moment, and knew that he could rely on Fan Ning to ascend the throne.

"By the way, mother is very grateful that you spotted the assassin in Yingtian Mansion. She asked if you have any personal requests?"

Fanning heart 'bang! ' jumped a bit, what does this mean?What is a personal request.

Of course, Gao Taotao has good intentions, and he must not think wrongly. Fan Ning thought for a while and smiled: "My flat wife is Ouyang Xiu's daughter. Ouyang Xiu has never recognized me as a son-in-law, unless he also makes a good order for his daughter." .”

Zhao Zhongzhen also laughed, "This is a small problem, I will tell my grandfather."

At this time, a group of officials came out from the Chongwen Hall, and they went forward to salute together, "See His Royal Highness Liang Wang!"

In the afternoon, the emperor Zhao Zhen issued an imperial edict ordering Zhao Zhongzhen, king of Liang, to study and live in the East Palace Chongwen Hall, granting 300 court ladies and eunuchs, and ordering Han Zhi, a scholar of Longtuge University, to be the king's tutor of Liang, teaching him to read sooner or later, and ordering the prince Zhan to serve as a teacher. Ning took care of Zhao Zhongzhen's study in the East Palace.

In the Julu Palace, Zhao Zongshi suppressed his dissatisfaction and patiently listened to Zhu Yuanfeng's persuasion. This was because Zhu Yuanfeng had supported him financially over the years. If it was another person, he would have turned his back on him long ago.

Zhu Yuanfeng saw that Zhao Zongshi's face was getting more and more gloomy, and he sighed in his heart. He didn't want to persuade him any more, since they were not three-year-old children, so he just clicked.

He took out a money withdrawal book from Zhu's Money Shop, put it on the table and said, "Your Highness transferred the members of the Kistler Museum to me, and he has never compensated His Highness. The 1 taels of silver are considered as compensation for the members of the Kistler Museum." , Your Highness please accept it with a smile."

In fact, Zhao Zongshi had already given him the money he transferred to the Qishiguan. Zhu Yuanfeng pretended to forget, and then used this incident as an excuse to send 1 taels of silver. After all, Zhao Zongshi is actually out now, and Zhu Yuanfeng doesn’t want to To be taken advantage of again, this time is the last friendship sponsorship.

During this time, Zhao Zongshi was spending a lot of money, and was short of money in his pocket. Zhu Yuanfeng sent charcoal in the snow. His stiff face finally eased, and he nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for your kindness. I will definitely repay you twice in the future!"

Zhu Yuanfeng said goodbye and left, with 1 taels of silver in his arms, Zhao Zongshi felt a lot more comfortable. At this time, his wife Gao Taotao appeared.

"Husband, didn't we agree last time that we would no longer accept money from the Zhu family, so why is it?"

Zhao Zongshi said after a long while: "The 1 taels of silver is the income of the people who transferred the Qishiguan. It is the money I deserve, and has nothing to do with his support."

Gao Taotao sighed secretly, the compensation for Kistler Hall was received a few years ago, how could her husband have the nerve to accept it again.

But since the money has already been collected, she doesn't want to worry too much about this matter, she said again: "The imperial doctor Zhang Hongji is actually Zhang Yaozuo's person, my husband didn't investigate beforehand, right?"

Zhao Zongshi's face was extremely ugly, although he knew that he had fallen on Zhang Hongji this time, but he couldn't bear face, he snorted, "Everyone belongs to Zhang Yaozuo, how much supernatural power do you think Zhang Yaozuo has? "

But Gao Taotao refused to let her husband go just like that. If she wanted to say a few more words, she had to make him remember this lesson firmly.

"Actually, Zhu Yuanwai is right. Zhang Yaozuo will never quit willingly. He is hiding in the dark, just waiting to deal a fatal blow to Zhen'er. We can't help Zhen'er, but we can't hold him back either."

Zhao Zongshi said angrily: "What does he know as a businessman? Fan Ning obviously asked him to tell me. Do I need Fan Ning's hypocritical advice?"

Seeing her husband's deep resentment towards Fan Ning, Gao Taotao sighed and said, "Without Fan Ning's help, Jing'er would not be where he is today. If Fan Ning hadn't seen through the assassination in Yingtian Mansion, Jing'er would be in danger. He did it for Jing'er." So much, we should be grateful, and we can’t repay kindness with revenge.”

"That's you, you want to thank him, I don't care, but he broke my imperial prestige, how do you want me to thank him?"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Zongshi rushed away angrily.

Gao Taotao was speechless for a long time. Among the many family roles played by a woman, the mother is always the most important. The status of her husband in her heart is far inferior to that of her son. As a mother, of course she hopes that her son will be in charge, but Her husband insisted on going his own way, and she felt that it was necessary for her to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Fanning.

The news of King Liang’s study and life in the Donggong Chongwen Hall undoubtedly touched the heartstrings of many people. Two officials from Zuochunfang who had been on leave for a long time arrived quickly, and many officials who worked part-time in the East Palace also adjusted their schedules. The East Palace handles official business.

But the most eye-catching thing is the default official of the East Palace. Dozens of positions have been held but not official, and they have been forgotten for decades. In just two days, they suddenly attracted intense attention.

Early in the morning, Fan Ning arrived at the East Palace on time. As soon as he entered the gate, Zhan Shicheng Zhong Nan greeted him and said, "Have you heard the news, my lord?"

Daren is the abbreviation of Daguanren. It was not used much in the Song Dynasty, and it became popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is generally used when there is a large gap between the upper and lower ranks. Fan Ning is now a doctor from the third rank Yinqing Guanglu, while Zhong Nan is only from the seventh grade. For Pinchao Sanlang, the difference in official rank between the two was too great, so Zhong Nan used the title of an adult.

Fanning smiled slightly and said, "What's the news?"

"His Royal Highness King Liang is going to change his name!"

Fan Ning is not surprised that Zhao Zhongzhen wants to change his name, the main reason is to avoid the taboo. Zhao Zhongzhen and Zhao Zhen have the same pronunciation. up.

Historically, Zhao Zhongzhen changed his name to Zhao Xu. I don't know if the current name change is the same as the history.

Fan Ning walked into his official room. His official room was on the second floor. The East Palace was really sparsely populated, and his official room was also very luxurious. There were two rooms in it, at least more than 200 square meters, almost comparable to Xiangguo's official room. .

There are only two people on the second floor of Zhan Shifu. Zhan Shicheng Zhong Nan is in the room facing the stairs in the middle, and Fan Ning is on the westernmost head.

But soon two of his staff members will also come over, and he plans to put the military office of the Shenwu Army in the East Palace, and the East Palace will be lively. Of course, this must be approved by the emperor.

Fan Ning walked to the window and looked at a corridor to the west: "The Sangong Building has never been used!"

The Sangong Building is the court building of Shaoshi, Shaobao, and Shaofu. It is only symbolic and has no practical significance. For example, Cao Cong was named Prince Shaobao, and he never entered the East Palace.

Zhong Nan understood Fan Ning's thoughts, and hurriedly said: "Although it has never been used for decades, I am afraid that now they are suddenly interested in the East Palace, and they have come to the East Palace to sit in town and use their official buildings. What if they are dissatisfied? manage?"

Zhong Nan's worry was not unreasonable. Although Fan Ning really wanted to change the Sangong Building into the military office of the Shenwu Army, he was afraid that those old guys would say that he had violated their interests.

He could only sigh and said, "Then follow the previous plan and clean up the first floor of Zhan Shifu!"
